Numbers 20:1-23

20:1

Then came
<0935> (8799)

the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>_,

[even] the whole congregation
<05712>_,

into the desert
<04057>

of Zin
<06790>

in the first
<07223>

month
<02320>_:

and the people
<05971>

abode
<03427> (8799)

in Kadesh
<06946>_;

and Miriam
<04813>

died
<04191> (8799)

there, and was buried
<06912> (8735)

there.

20:2

And there was no water
<04325>

for the congregation
<05712>_:

and they gathered
<06950> (8735)

themselves together against Moses
<04872>

and against Aaron
<0175>_.

20:3

And the people
<05971>

chode
<07378> (8799)

with Moses
<04872>_,

and spake
<0559> (8799)_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Would God that
<03863>

we had died
<01478> (8804)

when our brethren
<0251>

died
<01478> (8800)

before
<06440>

the LORD
<03068>_!

20:4

And why have ye brought up
<0935> (8689)

the congregation
<06951>

of the LORD
<03068>

into this wilderness
<04057>_,

that we and our cattle
<01165>

should die
<04191> (8800)

there?

20:5

And wherefore have ye made us to come up
<05927> (8689)

out of Egypt
<04714>_,

to bring
<0935> (8687)

us in unto this evil
<07451>

place
<04725>_?

it [is] no place
<04725>

of seed
<02233>_,

or of figs
<08384>_,

or of vines
<01612>_,

or of pomegranates
<07416>_;

neither [is] there any water
<04325>

to drink
<08354> (8800)_.

20:6

And Moses
<04872>

and Aaron
<0175>

went
<0935> (8799)

from the presence
<06440>

of the assembly
<06951>

unto the door
<06607>

of the tabernacle
<0168>

of the congregation
<04150>_,

and they fell
<05307> (8799)

upon their faces
<06440>_:

and the glory
<03519>

of the LORD
<03068>

appeared
<07200> (8735)

unto them.

20:7

And the LORD
<03068>

spake
<01696> (8762)

unto Moses
<04872>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

20:8

Take
<03947> (8798)

the rod
<04294>_,

and gather
<06950> (8685)

thou the assembly
<05712>

together, thou, and Aaron
<0175>

thy brother
<0251>_,

and speak
<01696> (8765)

ye unto the rock
<05553>

before their eyes
<05869>_;

and it shall give forth
<05414> (8804)

his water
<04325>_,

and thou shalt bring forth
<03318> (8689)

to them water
<04325>

out of the rock
<05553>_:

so thou shalt give
<08248> (0)

the congregation
<05712>

and their beasts
<01165>

drink
<08248> (8689)_.

20:9

And Moses
<04872>

took
<03947> (8799)

the rod
<04294>

from before
<06440>

the LORD
<03068>_,

as he commanded
<06680> (8765)

him.

20:10

And Moses
<04872>

and Aaron
<0175>

gathered
<06950> (8686)

the congregation
<06951>

together before
<06440>

the rock
<05553>_,

and he said
<0559> (8799)

unto them, Hear
<08085> (8798)

now, ye rebels
<04784> (8802)_;

must we fetch
<03318> (8686)

you water
<04325>

out of this rock
<05553>_?

20:11

And Moses
<04872>

lifted up
<07311> (8686)

his hand
<03027>_,

and with his rod
<04294>

he smote
<05221> (8686)

the rock
<05553>

twice
<06471>_:

and the water
<04325>

came out
<03318> (8799)

abundantly
<07227>_,

and the congregation
<05712>

drank
<08354> (8799)_,

and their beasts
<01165>

[also].

20:12

And the LORD
<03068>

spake
<0559> (8799)

unto Moses
<04872>

and Aaron
<0175>_,

Because ye believed
<0539> (8689)

me not, to sanctify
<06942> (8687)

me in the eyes
<05869>

of the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>_,

therefore ye shall not bring
<0935> (8686)

this congregation
<06951>

into the land
<0776>

which I have given
<05414> (8804)

them.

20:13

This [is]
<01992>

the water
<04325>

of Meribah
<04809>_;

because the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>

strove
<07378> (8804)

with the LORD
<03068>_,

and he was sanctified
<06942> (8735)

in them. {Meribah: that is, Strife}

20:14

And Moses
<04872>

sent
<07971> (8799)

messengers
<04397>

from Kadesh
<06946>

unto the king
<04428>

of Edom
<0123>_,

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

thy brother
<0251>

Israel
<03478>_,

Thou knowest
<03045> (8804)

all the travail
<08513>

that hath befallen
<04672> (8804)

us: {befallen...: Heb. found us}

20:15

How our fathers
<01>

went down
<03381> (8799)

into Egypt
<04714>_,

and we have dwelt
<03427> (8799)

in Egypt
<04714>

a long
<07227>

time
<03117>_;

and the Egyptians
<04714>

vexed
<07489> (8686)

us, and our fathers
<01>_:

20:16

And when we cried
<06817> (8799)

unto the LORD
<03068>_,

he heard
<08085> (8799)

our voice
<06963>_,

and sent
<07971> (8799)

an angel
<04397>_,

and hath brought us forth
<03318> (8686)

out of Egypt
<04714>_:

and, behold, we [are] in Kadesh
<06946>_,

a city
<05892>

in the uttermost
<07097>

of thy border
<01366>_:

20:17

Let us pass
<05674> (8799)_,

I pray thee, through thy country
<0776>_:

we will not pass
<05674> (8799)

through the fields
<07704>_,

or through the vineyards
<03754>_,

neither will we drink
<08354> (8799)

[of] the water
<04325>

of the wells
<0875>_:

we will go
<03212> (8799)

by the king's
<04428>

[high] way
<01870>_,

we will not turn
<05186> (8799)

to the right hand
<03225>

nor to the left
<08040>_,

until we have passed
<05674> (8799)

thy borders
<01366>_.

20:18

And Edom
<0123>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, Thou shalt not pass
<05674> (8799)

by me, lest I come out
<03318> (8799)

against
<07125> (8800)

thee with the sword
<02719>_.

20:19

And the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, We will go
<05927> (8799)

by the high way
<04546>_:

and if I and my cattle
<04735>

drink
<08354> (8799)

of thy water
<04325>_,

then I will pay
<05414> (8804) <04377>

for it: I will only, without [doing] any thing
<01697>

[else], go through
<05674> (8799)

on my feet
<07272>_.

20:20

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Thou shalt not go through
<05674> (8799)_.

And Edom
<0123>

came out
<03318> (8799)

against
<07125> (8800)

him with much
<03515>

people
<05971>_,

and with a strong
<02389>

hand
<03027>_.

20:21

Thus Edom
<0123>

refused
<03985> (8762)

to give
<05414> (8800)

Israel
<03478>

passage
<05674> (8800)

through his border
<01366>_:

wherefore Israel
<03478>

turned away
<05186> (8799)

from him.

20:22

And the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>_,

[even] the whole congregation
<05712>_,

journeyed
<05265> (8799)

from Kadesh
<06946>_,

and came
<0935> (8799)

unto mount
<02022>

Hor
<02023>_.

20:23

And the LORD
<03068>

spake
<0559> (8799)

unto Moses
<04872>

and Aaron
<0175>

in mount
<02022>

Hor
<02023>_,

by the coast
<01366>

of the land
<0776>

of Edom
<0123>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,
