Números 20
Septante en francais
1Toute la synagogue des fils d'Israël revint dans le désert de Sin durant le premier mois, et elle demeura en Cadès ; or, Marie mourut en ce lieu, et elle y fut ensevelie.
2Et il n'y avait point la d'eau pour la synagogue ; elle se rassembla donc tumultueusement autour de Moïse et d'Aaron.
3Et le peuple injuria Moïse, disant : Que ne sommes-nous morts lorsque nos frères ont été détruits devant le Seigneur ?
4Pourquoi avez-vous conduit le peuple en ce désert, où nous périssons, nous et nos bestiaux ?
5Dans quel but nous avez-vous amenés de l'Egypte en ce lieu maudit, où il n'y a ni semailles, ni figues, ni vignes, ni grenades, ni même d'eau à boire ?
6Aussitôt, Moïse et Aaron, s'éloignant de la synagogue, allèrent devant la porte du tabernacle du témoignage, et ils se prosternèrent la face contre terre ; alors, la gloire du Seigneur leur apparut.
7Et le Seigneur parla à Moïse, disant :
8Prends ta baguette ; toi et ton frère, convoquez la synagogue, et parlez au rocher qui est devant vous, il vous donnera ses eaux ; vous ferez jaillir pour vous de l'eau du rocher, et vous abreuverez la synagogue et les bestiaux.
9Moïse prit la baguette déposée devant le Seigneur, comme le Seigneur le lui avait prescrit.
10Et Moïse et Aaron convoquèrent la synagogue devant le rocher, et Moïse lui dit : Ecoutez-moi, incrédules ; tirerons-nous pour vous de l'eau de ce rocher ?
11Puis, Moïse étendit la main, et de sa baguette il frappa deux fois le rocher. Aussitôt, l'eau jaillit en abondance ; la synagogue but et elle abreuva ses bestiaux.
12Le Seigneur dit alors à Moïse et à Aaron : Vous n'avez pas eu assez de foi pour me sanctifier devant les fils d'Israël, c'est pourquoi vous n'introduirez point ce peuple dans la terre que je vous ai donnée.
13Cette eau est appelée l'eau de contradiction, parce qu'en ce lieu les fils d'Israël injurièrent Moïse devant le Seigneur, et que le Seigneur fut sanctifié en eux.
14De Cadès, Moïse envoya des messagers au roi d'Edom, disant : Ton frère Israël dit ces choses : Tu sais toutes les peines qui nous ont assaillis.
15Nos pères sont descendus en Egypte ; nous avons habité l'Egypte bien des années, et les Egyptiens nous ont opprimés, comme nos pères.
16Nous avons invoqué le Seigneur, et il a entendu nos cris ; il a envoyé son ange, il nous a fait sortir de la terre d'Egypte, et nous voilà arrivés en la ville de Cadès du côté de tes frontières.
17Nous allons donc passer par ton territoire ; nous ne traverserons ni les champs, ni les vignes ; nous ne boirons point l'eau de tes citernes ; nous suivrons le grand chemin, sans nous détourner à droite ni à gauche, jusqu'à ce que nous ayons dépassé tes limites.
18Mais Edom lui dit : Tu ne passeras point par mon territoire ; si tu insistes, j'irai a ta rencontre pour te combattre.
19Les fils d'Israël répartirent : Nous passerons le long de la montagne, et si de l'eau qui t'appartienne est bue par nous ou nos troupeaux, nous te la paierons ; mais il ne peut être question de cela, nous passerons le long de la montagne.
20Mais Edom dit : Tu ne passeras point par mon territoire ; et il sortit à la rencontre d'Israël avec une multitude redoutable et des bras puissants.
21Ainsi Edom ne voulut pas permettre à Israël de franchir sa frontière, et Israël se détourna de lui.
22Les fils d'Israël partirent de Cadès, et ils arrivèrent dans la montagne de Hor.
23Et le Seigneur parla à Moïse et à Aaron en la montagne de Hor, sur les frontières de la terre d'Edom, disant :
24Qu'Aaron aille rejoindre son peuple : car vous ne devez point entrer en la terre que j'ai donnée aux fils d'Israël, parce que vous m'avez irrité au sujet de l'eau de contradiction.
25Prends Aaron et son fils Eléazar, et fais-les monter sur la montagne de Hor, devant toute la synagogue.
26Ote à Aaron sa robe pour en revêtir Eléazar son fils ; qu'Aaron se réunisse à son peuple et meure en ce lieu.
27Moïse fit ce qu'avait prescrit le Seigneur ; il fit monter Aaron sur la montagne de Hor devant toute la synagogue.
28Il ôta à Aaron les vêtements sacerdotaux, il en revêtit son fils Eléazar, et Aaron mourut sur le sommet de la montagne, puis Moïse descendit de la montagne avec Eléazar.
29Toute la synagogue vit qu'Aaron était mort ; et toute la maison d'Israël pleura Aaron trente jours.
Reina-Valera 1909
1Y LLEGARON los hijos de Israel, toda la congregación, al desierto de Zin, en el mes primero, y asentó el pueblo en Cades; y allí murió María, y fué allí sepultada.
2Y como no hubiese agua para la congregación, juntáronse contra Moisés y Aarón.
3Y regañó el pueblo con Moisés, y hablaron diciendo: ¡Ojalá que nosotros hubiéramos muerto cuando perecieron nuestros hermanos delante de Jehová!
4¿Y por qué hiciste venir la congregación de Jehová á este desierto, para que muramos aquí nosotros y nuestras bestias?
5¿Y por qué nos has hecho subir de Egipto, para traernos á este mal lugar? No es lugar de sementera, de higueras, de viñas, ni granadas: ni aun de agua para beber.
6Y fuéronse Moisés y Aarón de delante de la congregación á la puerta del tabernáculo del testimonio, y echáronse sobre sus rostros; y la gloria de Jehová apareció sobre ellos.
7Y habló Jehová á Moisés, diciendo:
8Toma la vara, y reune la congregación, tú y Aarón tu hermano, y hablad á la peña en ojos de ellos; y ella dará su agua, y les sacarás aguas de la peña, y darás de beber á la congregación, y á sus bestias.
9Entonces Moisés tomó la vara de delante de Jehová, como él le mandó.
10Y juntaron Moisés y Aarón la congregación delante de la peña, y díjoles: Oid ahora, rebeldes: ¿os hemos de hacer salir aguas de esta peña?
11Entonces alzó Moisés su mano, é hirió la peña con su vara dos veces: y salieron muchas aguas, y bebió la congregación, y sus bestias.
12Y Jehová dijo á Moisés y á Aarón: Por cuanto no creísteis en mí, para santificarme en ojos de los hijos de Israel, por tanto, no meteréis esta congregación en la tierra que les he dado.
13Estas son las aguas de la rencilla, por las cuales contendieron los hijos de Israel con Jehová, y él se santificó en ellos.
14Y envió Moisés embajadores al rey de Edom desde Cades: Así dice Israel tu hermano: Tú has sabido todo el trabajo que nos ha venido:
15Cómo nuestros padres descendieron á Egipto, y estuvimos en Egipto largo tiempo, y los Egipcios nos maltrataron, y á nuestros padres;
16Y clamamos á Jehová, el cual oyó nuestra voz, y envió ángel, y sacónos de Egipto; y he aquí estamos en Cades, ciudad al extremo de tus confines:
17Rogámoste que pasemos por tu tierra; no pasaremos por labranza, ni por viña, ni beberemos agua de pozos: por el camino real iremos, sin apartarnos á la diestra ni á la siniestra, hasta que hayamos pasado tu término.
18Y Edom le respondió: No pasarás por mi país, de otra manera saldré contra ti armado.
19Y los hijos de Israel dijeron: Por el camino seguido iremos; y si bebiéremos tus aguas yo y mis ganados, daré el precio de ellas: ciertamente sin hacer otra cosa, pasaré de seguida.
20Y él respondió: No pasarás. Y salió Edom contra él con mucho pueblo, y mano fuerte.
21No quiso, pues, Edom dejar pasar á Israel por su término, y apartóse Israel de él.
22Y partidos de Cades los hijos de Israel, toda aquella congregación, vinieron al monte de Hor.
23Y Jehová habló á Moisés y Aarón en el monte de Hor, en los confines de la tierra de Edom, diciendo:
24Aarón será reunido á sus pueblos; pues no entrará en la tierra que yo di á los hijos de Israel, por cuanto fuisteis rebeldes á mi mandamiento en las aguas de la rencilla.
25Toma á Aarón y á Eleazar su hijo, y hazlos subir al monte de Hor;
26Y haz desnudar á Aarón sus vestidos, y viste de ellos á Eleazar su hijo; porque Aarón será reunido á sus pueblos, y allí morirá.
27Y Moisés hizo como Jehová le mandó: y subieron al monte de Hor á ojos de toda la congregación.
28Y Moisés hizo desnudar á Aarón de sus vestidos y vistiólos á Eleazar su hijo: y Aarón murió allí en la cumbre del monte: y Moisés y Eleazar descendieron del monte.
29Y viendo toda la congregación que Aarón era muerto, hiciéronle duelo por treinta días todas las familias de Israel.
King James Version
1Then came the children of Israel, even the whole congregation, into the desert of Zin in the first month: and the people abode in Kadesh; and Miriam died there, and was buried there.
2And there was no water for the congregation: and they gathered themselves together against Moses and against Aaron.
3And the people chode with Moses, and spake, saying, Would God that we had died when our brethren died before the LORD!
4And why have ye brought up the congregation of the LORD into this wilderness, that we and our cattle should die there?
5And wherefore have ye made us to come up out of Egypt, to bring us in unto this evil place? it is no place of seed, or of figs, or of vines, or of pomegranates; neither is there any water to drink.
6And Moses and Aaron went from the presence of the assembly unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and they fell upon their faces: and the glory of the LORD appeared unto them.
7And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
8Take the rod, and gather thou the assembly together, thou, and Aaron thy brother, and speak ye unto the rock before their eyes; and it shall give forth his water, and thou shalt bring forth to them water out of the rock: so thou shalt give the congregation and their beasts drink.
9And Moses took the rod from before the LORD, as he commanded him.
10And Moses and Aaron gathered the congregation together before the rock, and he said unto them, Hear now, ye rebels; must we fetch you water out of this rock?
11And Moses lifted up his hand, and with his rod he smote the rock twice: and the water came out abundantly, and the congregation drank, and their beasts also.
12And the LORD spake unto Moses and Aaron, Because ye believed me not, to sanctify me in the eyes of the children of Israel, therefore ye shall not bring this congregation into the land which I have given them.
13This is the water of Meribah; because the children of Israel strove with the LORD, and he was sanctified in them.
14And Moses sent messengers from Kadesh unto the king of Edom, Thus saith thy brother Israel, Thou knowest all the travail that hath befallen us:
15How our fathers went down into Egypt, and we have dwelt in Egypt a long time; and the Egyptians vexed us, and our fathers:
16And when we cried unto the LORD, he heard our voice, and sent an angel, and hath brought us forth out of Egypt: and, behold, we are in Kadesh, a city in the uttermost of thy border:
17Let us pass, I pray thee, through thy country: we will not pass through the fields, or through the vineyards, neither will we drink of the water of the wells: we will go by the king’s high way, we will not turn to the right hand nor to the left, until we have passed thy borders.
18And Edom said unto him, Thou shalt not pass by me, lest I come out against thee with the sword.
19And the children of Israel said unto him, We will go by the high way: and if I and my cattle drink of thy water, then I will pay for it: I will only, without doing any thing else, go through on my feet.
20And he said, Thou shalt not go through. And Edom came out against him with much people, and with a strong hand.
21Thus Edom refused to give Israel passage through his border: wherefore Israel turned away from him.
22And the children of Israel, even the whole congregation, journeyed from Kadesh, and came unto mount Hor.
23And the LORD spake unto Moses and Aaron in mount Hor, by the coast of the land of Edom, saying,
24Aaron shall be gathered unto his people: for he shall not enter into the land which I have given unto the children of Israel, because ye rebelled against my word at the water of Meribah.
25Take Aaron and Eleazar his son, and bring them up unto mount Hor:
26And strip Aaron of his garments, and put them upon Eleazar his son: and Aaron shall be gathered unto his people, and shall die there.
27And Moses did as the LORD commanded: and they went up into mount Hor in the sight of all the congregation.
28And Moses stripped Aaron of his garments, and put them upon Eleazar his son; and Aaron died there in the top of the mount: and Moses and Eleazar came down from the mount.
29And when all the congregation saw that Aaron was dead, they mourned for Aaron thirty days, even all the house of Israel.
World English Bible
1The children of Israel, even the whole congregation, came into the wilderness of Zin in the first month. The people stayed in Kadesh. Miriam died there, and was buried there.
2There was no water for the congregation; and they assembled themselves together against Moses and against Aaron.
3The people quarreled with Moses, and spoke, saying, “We wish that we had died when our brothers died before the LORD!
4Why have you brought the LORD’s assembly into this wilderness, that we should die there, we and our animals?
5Why have you made us to come up out of Egypt, to bring us in to this evil place? It is no place of seed, or of figs, or of vines, or of pomegranates; neither is there any water to drink.”
6Moses and Aaron went from the presence of the assembly to the door of the Tent of Meeting, and fell on their faces. The LORD’s glory appeared to them.
7The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
8“Take the rod, and assemble the congregation, you, and Aaron your brother, and speak to the rock before their eyes, that it pour out its water. You shall bring water to them out of the rock; so you shall give the congregation and their livestock drink.”
9Moses took the rod from before the LORD, as he commanded him.
10Moses and Aaron gathered the assembly together before the rock, and he said to them, “Hear now, you rebels! Shall we bring water out of this rock for you?”
11Moses lifted up his hand, and struck the rock with his rod twice, and water came out abundantly. The congregation and their livestock drank.
12The LORD said to Moses and Aaron, “Because you didn’t believe in me, to sanctify me in the eyes of the children of Israel, therefore you shall not bring this assembly into the land which I have given them.”
13These are the waters of Meribah; because the children of Israel strove with the LORD, and he was sanctified in them.
14Moses sent messengers from Kadesh to the king of Edom, saying: “Your brother Israel says: You know all the travail that has happened to us;
15how our fathers went down into Egypt, and we lived in Egypt a long time. The Egyptians mistreated us and our fathers.
16When we cried to the LORD, he heard our voice, sent an angel, and brought us out of Egypt. Behold, we are in Kadesh, a city in the edge of your border.
17“Please let us pass through your land. We will not pass through field or through vineyard, neither will we drink from the water of the wells. We will go along the king’s highway. We will not turn away to the right hand nor to the left, until we have passed your border.”
18Edom said to him, “You shall not pass through me, lest I come out with the sword against you.”
19The children of Israel said to him, “We will go up by the highway; and if we drink your water, I and my livestock, then I will give its price. Only let me, without doing anything else, pass through on my feet.”
20He said, “You shall not pass through.” Edom came out against him with many people, and with a strong hand.
21Thus Edom refused to give Israel passage through his border, so Israel turned away from him.
22They traveled from Kadesh, and the children of Israel, even the whole congregation, came to Mount Hor.
23The LORD spoke to Moses and Aaron in Mount Hor, by the border of the land of Edom, saying,
24“Aaron shall be gathered to his people; for he shall not enter into the land which I have given to the children of Israel, because you rebelled against my word at the waters of Meribah.
25Take Aaron and Eleazar his son, and bring them up to Mount Hor;
26and strip Aaron of his garments, and put them on Eleazar his son. Aaron shall be gathered, and shall die there.”
27Moses did as the LORD commanded. They went up onto Mount Hor in the sight of all the congregation.
28Moses stripped Aaron of his garments, and put them on Eleazar his son. Aaron died there on the top of the mountain, and Moses and Eleazar came down from the mountain.
29When all the congregation saw that Aaron was dead, they wept for Aaron thirty days, even all the house of Israel.
