And the children{H1121} of Israel,{H3478} even the whole congregation,{H5712} came{H935} into the wilderness{H4057} of Zin{H6790} in the first{H7223} month:{H2320} and the people{H5971} abode{H3427} in Kadesh;{H6946} and Miriam{H4813} died{H4191} there, and was buried{H6912} there.

And there was no water{H4325} for the congregation:{H5712} and they assembled{H6950} themselves together against Moses{H4872} and against Aaron.{H175}

And the people{H5971} strove{H7378} with Moses,{H4872} and spake,{H559} saying,{H559} Would that{H3863} we had died{H1478} when our brethren{H251} died{H1478} before{H6440} Jehovah!{H3068}

And why have ye brought{H935} the assembly{H6951} of Jehovah{H3068} into this wilderness,{H4057} that we should die{H4191} there, we and our beasts?{H1165}

And wherefore have ye made us to come up{H5927} out of Egypt,{H4714} to bring{H935} us in unto this evil{H7451} place?{H4725} it is no place{H4725} of seed,{H2233} or of figs,{H8384} or of vines,{H1612} or of pomegranates;{H7416} neither is there any water{H4325} to drink.{H8354}

And Moses{H4872} and Aaron{H175} went{H935} from the presence{H6440} of the assembly{H6951} unto the door{H6607} of the tent{H168} of meeting,{H4150} and fell{H5307} upon their faces:{H6440} and the glory{H3519} of Jehovah{H3068} appeared{H7200} unto them.

And Jehovah{H3068} spake{H1696} unto Moses,{H4872} saying,{H559}

Take{H3947} the rod,{H4294} and assemble{H6950} the congregation,{H5712} thou, and Aaron{H175} thy brother,{H251} and speak{H1696} ye unto the rock{H5553} before their eyes,{H5869} that it give forth{H5414} its water;{H4325} and thou shalt bring forth{H5414} to them water{H4325} out{H3318} of the rock;{H5553} so thou shalt give{H8248} the congregation{H5712} and their cattle drink.{H8248}

And Moses{H4872} took{H3947} the rod{H4294} from before{H6440} Jehovah,{H3068} as he commanded{H6680} him.

And Moses{H4872} and Aaron{H175} gathered{H6950} the assembly{H6951} together before{H6440} the rock,{H5553} and he said{H559} unto them, Hear{H8085} now, ye rebels;{H4784} shall we bring{H3318} you forth water{H4325} out of this rock?{H5553}

And Moses{H4872} lifted up{H7311} his hand,{H3027} and smote{H5221} the rock{H5553} with his rod{H4294} twice:{H6471} and water{H4325} came forth{H3318} abundantly,{H7227} and the congregation{H5712} drank,{H8354} and their cattle.{H1165}

And Jehovah{H3068} said{H559} unto Moses{H4872} and Aaron,{H175} Because ye believed{H539} not in me, to sanctify{H6942} me in the eyes{H5869} of the children{H1121} of Israel,{H3478} therefore ye shall not bring{H935} this assembly{H6951} into the land{H776} which I have given{H5414} them.

These are{H1992} the waters{H4325} of Meribah;{H4809} because the children{H1121} of Israel{H3478} strove{H7378} with Jehovah,{H3068} and he was sanctified{H6942} in them.

And Moses{H4872} sent{H7971} messengers{H4397} from Kadesh{H6946} unto the king{H4428} of Edom,{H123} Thus saith{H559} thy brother{H251} Israel,{H3478} Thou knowest{H3045} all the travail{H8513} that hath befallen{H4672} us:

how our fathers{H1} went down{H3381} into Egypt,{H4714} and we dwelt{H3427} in Egypt{H4714} a long{H7227} time;{H3117} and the Egyptians{H4714} dealt ill{H7489} with us, and our fathers:{H1}

and when we cried{H6817} unto Jehovah,{H3068} he heard{H8085} our voice,{H6963} and sent{H7971} an angel,{H4397} and brought us forth{H3318} out of Egypt:{H4714} and, behold, we are in Kadesh,{H6946} a city{H5892} in the uttermost{H7097} of thy border.{H1366}

Let us pass,{H5674} I pray thee, through thy land:{H776} we will not pass{H5674} through field{H7704} or through vineyard,{H3754} neither will we drink{H8354} of the water{H4325} of the wells:{H875} we will go{H3212} along the king's{H4428} highway;{H1870} we will not turn{H5186} aside to the right hand{H3225} nor to the left,{H8040} until we have passed{H5674} thy border.{H1366}

And Edom{H123} said{H559} unto him, Thou shalt not pass{H5674} through me, lest I come out{H3318} with the sword{H2719} against{H7125} thee.

And the children{H1121} of Israel{H3478} said{H559} unto him, We will go{H5927} up by the highway;{H4546} and if we drink{H8354} of thy water,{H4325} I and my cattle,{H4735} then will I give{H5414} the price thereof: let me only, without [doing] anything{H1697} [else], pass through{H5674} on my feet.{H7272}

And he said,{H559} Thou shalt not pass through.{H5674} And Edom{H123} came out{H3318} against{H7125} him with much{H3515} people,{H5971} and with a strong{H2389} hand.{H3027}

Thus Edom{H123} refused{H3985} to give{H5414} Israel{H3478} passage{H5674} through his border:{H1366} wherefore Israel{H3478} turned away{H5186} from him.

And they journeyed{H5265} from Kadesh:{H6946} and the children{H1121} of Israel,{H3478} even the whole congregation,{H5712} came{H935} unto mount{H2022} Hor.{H2023}

And Jehovah{H3068} spake{H559} unto Moses{H4872} and Aaron{H175} in mount{H2022} Hor,{H2023} by the border{H1366} of the land{H776} of Edom,{H123} saying,{H559}

Aaron{H175} shall be gathered{H622} unto his people;{H5971} for he shall not enter{H935} into the land{H776} which I have given{H5414} unto the children{H1121} of Israel,{H3478} because ye rebelled against{H4784} my word{H6310} at the waters{H4325} of Meribah.{H4809}

Take{H3947} Aaron{H175} and Eleazar{H499} his son,{H1121} and bring them up{H5927} unto mount{H2022} Hor;{H2023}

and strip{H6584} Aaron{H175} of his garments,{H899} and put{H3847} them upon Eleazar{H499} his son:{H1121} and Aaron{H175} shall be gathered{H622} [unto his people], and shall die{H4191} there.

And Moses{H4872} did{H6213} as Jehovah{H3068} commanded:{H6680} and they went up{H5927} into mount{H2022} Hor{H2023} in the sight{H5869} of all the congregation.{H5712}

And Moses{H4872} stripped{H6584} Aaron{H175} of his garments,{H899} and put{H3847} them upon Eleazar{H499} his son;{H1121} and Aaron{H175} died{H4191} there on the top{H7218} of the mount:{H2022} and Moses{H4872} and Eleazar{H499} came down{H3381} from the mount.{H2022}

And when all the congregation{H5712} saw{H7200} that Aaron{H175} was dead,{H1478} they wept{H1058} for Aaron{H175} thirty{H7970} days,{H3117} even all the house{H1004} of Israel.{H3478}
