Tongan Bible, Revised West 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.
1Pea naʻe haʻu ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻio, ʻae kakai kotoa pē, ki he toafa ʻo Sini ʻi he ʻuluaki māhina: pea naʻe nofo ʻae kakai ʻi Ketesi; pea naʻe pekia ʻi ai ʻa Miliame, pea naʻe tanu ia ʻi ai.
2And there was no water for the congregation: and they gathered themselves together against Moses and against Aaron.
2Pea naʻe ʻikai ha vai ki he kakai pea naʻa nau fakataha fakaangatuʻu kia Mōsese pea mo ʻElone.
3And the people chode with Moses, and spake, saying, Would God that we had died when our brethren died before the LORD !
3Pea naʻe lāunga ʻae kakai kia Mōsese, ʻonau lea pehē, “ʻAmusiaange ʻekimautolu ki he ʻOtua naʻa mau mate fakataha mo homau kāinga naʻe mate ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova!
4And why have ye brought up the congregation of the LORD into this wilderness, that we and our cattle should die there?
4Pea ko e hā kuo mo ʻomi ai ʻae kakai ʻa Sihova ki he toafa ni ke mau mate ʻi heni mo ʻemau fanga manu?
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.
5Pea ko e hā kuo mo ʻomi ai ʻakimautolu mei ʻIsipite, ke ʻomi ʻakimautolu ki he potu kovi ni? ʻOku ʻikai ha tenga ʻi he potu ni, pe ha fiki, pe ha vaine, pe ha pomikanite; pea ʻoku ʻikai ha vai ʻi ai ke mau inu.”
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.
6Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻa Mōsese mo ʻElone ʻi he ʻao ʻoe fakataha ki he matapā ʻoe fale fehikitaki ʻoe kakai, pea naʻa na tō ki hona mata, pea naʻe hā mai ʻae nāunau ʻo Sihova kiate kinaua.
7¶ And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
7Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, ʻo pehē,
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.
8“Ke ke toʻo ʻae tokotoko, pea tānaki ʻae kakai kenau fakataha, ʻa koe mo ʻElone ko ho taʻokete, pea mo lea ki he maka ʻi honau ʻao, pea ʻe foaki mai ʻe ia ʻa hono vai, pea te ke ʻomi ʻae vai mei he maka kiate kinautolu, pea te ke foaki pehē ʻae vai ki he kakai mo ʻenau fanga manu kenau inu.”
9And Moses took the rod from before the LORD , as he commanded him.
9Pea naʻe ʻave ʻe Mōsese ʻae tokotoko mei he ʻao ʻo Sihova ʻo hangē ko ʻene fekau kiate ia.
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?
10Pea naʻe fakataha ʻe Mōsese mo ʻElone ʻae kakai ki he ʻao ʻoe maka, pea naʻa ne pehē kiate kinautolu, “Mou fanongo mai ʻae kau angatuʻu; ʻoku lelei ke ma ʻomi ʻae vai mei he maka ni kiate kimoutolu?”
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 .
11Pea naʻe hiki hake ʻe Mōsese ʻa hono nima, pea naʻa ne taaʻi ʻae maka ʻo liunga ua ʻaki ʻa hono tokotoko, pea naʻe hā mai ʻae vai ʻo lahi, pea naʻe inu ai ʻae kakai mo ʻenau fanga manu foki.
12¶ And 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.
12¶ Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese mo ʻElone, ʻo pehē, “Ko e meʻa ʻi hoʻomo taʻetui kiate au, ke fakaongolelei au ʻi he ʻao ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ko ia ʻe ʻikai ai te mo ʻomi ʻae kakai ni ki he fonua, ʻaia kuo u foaki kiate kinautolu.”
13This is the water of Meribah; because the children of Israel strove with the LORD , and he was sanctified in them.
13Ko e vai eni ʻo Melipa, koeʻuhi naʻe fakakē ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli kia Sihova, pea naʻe ongolelei ia ʻiate kinautolu.
14¶ And Moses sent messengers from Kadesh unto the king of Edom, Thus saith thy brother Israel, Thou knowest all the travail that hath befallen us:
14¶ Pea naʻe fekau ʻe Mōsese ʻae kau talafekau mei Ketesi ki he tuʻi ʻo ʻItomi, “ʻOku pehē ʻe ho tokoua ko ʻIsileli, Kuo ke ʻilo ʻe koe ʻae fononga kotoa pē kuo tō mai kiate kimautolu:
15How our fathers went down into Egypt, and we have dwelt in Egypt a long time; and the Egyptians vexed us, and our fathers:
15Mo e ʻalu hifo ʻemau ngaahi tamai ki ʻIsipite, pea mo ʻemau nofo fuoloa ʻi ʻIsipite, pea naʻe fakafiuʻi ʻe he kakai ʻIsipite ʻakimautolu mo ʻemau ngaahi tamai.
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:
16Pea ʻi heʻemau tangi kia Sihova naʻa ne ongoʻi ʻa homau leʻo, pea naʻa ne fekau ki heʻene ʻāngelo, pea kuo ne ʻomi ʻakimautolu mei ʻIsipite, pea ko eni, ʻoku mau ʻi Ketesi, ko e kolo ia ʻoku tuʻu ʻi he ngataʻanga moʻoni ʻo ho fonua.
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.
17ʻOku ou kole kiate koe, tuku ke mau ʻalu atu ʻi ho fonua: ʻe ʻikai te mau ʻalu atu ʻi he ngaahi ngoue, pe ʻi he ngaahi ngoue vaine, pea ʻe ʻikai te mau inu ʻae vai ʻoe ngaahi vai keli: te mau ʻalu ʻi he hala motuʻa ʻoe tuʻi, ʻe ʻikai te mau afe ki he nima toʻomataʻu pe ki he toʻohema, kaeʻoua ke tuku ki mui ʻae ngataʻanga ʻo ho fonua.”
18And Edom said unto him, Thou shalt not pass by me, lest I come out against thee with the sword.
18Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ʻItomi kiate ia, “ʻE ʻikai te ke ʻalu ofi kiate au, telia naʻaku ʻalu atu mo e heletā kiate koe.”
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.
19Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli kiate ia, “Te mau ʻalu ʻi he hala motuʻa, pea kapau te u inu ʻa ho vai pe inu ʻe heʻeku fanga manu, te u totongi kiate koe: ʻe laka atu pe ʻa hoku vaʻe, ka ʻe ʻikai te u fai ha meʻa kehe.”
20And he said, Thou shalt not go through. And Edom came out against him with much people, and with a strong hand.
20Pea naʻa ne pehē, “ʻE ʻikai ʻaupito te ke laka atu.” Pea naʻe haʻu kiate ia ʻa ʻItomi mo e kakai tokolahi, pea mo e nima mālohi.
21Thus Edom refused to give Israel passage through his border: wherefore Israel turned away from him.
21Naʻe pehē ʻae taʻofi ʻe ʻItomi ʻae ʻalu ʻa ʻIsileli ʻi hono mata fonua: ko ia naʻe foki atu ai ʻa ʻIsileli meiate ia.
22¶ And the children of Israel, even the whole congregation, journeyed from Kadesh, and came unto mount Hor.
22¶ Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻio, ʻae kakai kotoa pē, mei Ketesi, pea nau haʻu ki he moʻunga ko Hoa.
23And the LORD spake unto Moses and Aaron in mount Hor, by the coast of the land of Edom, saying,
23Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese mo ʻElone ʻi he moʻunga ko Hoa, ʻi he mata fonua ʻo ʻItomi, ʻo pehē,
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.
24“ʻE tānaki ʻa ʻElone ki hono kakai koeʻuhi ʻe ʻikai hoko ia ki he fonua ʻaia ne u foaki ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, he naʻa mo talangataʻa ki heʻeku lea ʻi he vai ʻo Melipa.
25Take Aaron and Eleazar his son, and bring them up unto mount Hor:
25Ke ke ʻave ʻa ʻElone mo ʻEliesa ko hono foha, pea ʻomi ʻakinaua ki he moʻunga ko Hoa.
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.
26Pea ke vete ʻae ngaahi kofu ʻo ʻElone, ʻo fakakofuʻaki ia ʻa ʻEliesa ko hono foha: pea ʻe tānaki ʻa ʻElone ki hono kakai, pea ʻe pekia ia ʻi ai.”
27And Moses did as the LORD commanded: and they went up into mount Hor in the sight of all the congregation.
27Pea naʻe fai ʻe Mōsese ʻo hangē ko e fekau ʻa Sihova: pea naʻa nau ʻalu hake ki he moʻunga ko Hoa ʻi he ʻao ʻoe kakai kotoa pē.
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.
28Pea naʻe vete ʻe Mōsese ʻae ngaahi kofu ʻo ʻElone, pea ne fakakofuʻaki ʻa ʻEliesa ko hono foha; pea naʻe pekia ʻa ʻElone ʻi he tumutumu ʻoe moʻunga: pea naʻe ʻalu hifo ʻa Mōsese mo ʻEliesa mei he moʻunga.
29And when all the congregation saw that Aaron was dead, they mourned for Aaron thirty days, even all the house of Israel.
29Pea ʻi he mamata ʻae kakai kotoa pē kuo pekia ʻa ʻElone, naʻa nau loto mamahi koeʻuhi ko ʻElone ʻi he ʻaho ʻe tolungofulu, ʻio ʻae fale kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsileli.
