Then cameH935 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, even the whole congregationH5712, into the desertH4057 of ZinH6790 in the firstH7223 monthH2320: and the peopleH5971 abodeH3427 in KadeshH6946; and MiriamH4813 diedH4191 there, and was buriedH6912 there.
And there was no waterH4325 for the congregationH5712: and they gatheredH6950 themselves together against MosesH4872 and against AaronH175.
And the peopleH5971 chodeH7378 with MosesH4872, and spakeH559, sayingH559, Would God thatH3863 we had diedH1478 when our brethrenH251 diedH1478 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068!
And why have ye brought upH935 the congregationH6951 of the LORDH3068 into this wildernessH4057, that we and our cattleH1165 should dieH4191 there?
And wherefore have ye made us to come upH5927 out of EgyptH4714, to bringH935 us in unto this evilH7451 placeH4725? it is no placeH4725 of seedH2233, or of figsH8384, or of vinesH1612, or of pomegranatesH7416; neither is there any waterH4325 to drinkH8354.
And MosesH4872 and AaronH175 wentH935 from the presenceH6440 of the assemblyH6951 unto the doorH6607 of the tabernacleH168 of the congregationH4150, and they fellH5307 upon their facesH6440: and the gloryH3519 of the LORDH3068 appearedH7200 unto them.
And the LORDH3068 spakeH1696 unto MosesH4872, sayingH559,
TakeH3947 the rodH4294, and gatherH6950 thou the assemblyH5712 together, thou, and AaronH175 thy brotherH251, and speakH1696 ye unto the rockH5553 before their eyesH5869; and it shall give forthH5414 his waterH4325, and thou shalt bring forthH3318 to them waterH4325 out of the rockH5553: so thou shalt giveH8248 the congregationH5712 and their beastsH1165 drinkH8248.
And MosesH4872 tookH3947 the rodH4294 from beforeH6440 the LORDH3068, as he commandedH6680 him.
And MosesH4872 and AaronH175 gatheredH6950 the congregationH6951 together beforeH6440 the rockH5553, and he saidH559 unto them, HearH8085 now, ye rebelsH4784; must we fetchH3318 you waterH4325 out of this rockH5553?
And MosesH4872 lifted upH7311 his handH3027, and with his rodH4294 he smoteH5221 the rockH5553 twiceH6471: and the waterH4325 came outH3318 abundantlyH7227, and the congregationH5712 drankH8354, and their beastsH1165 also.
And the LORDH3068 spakeH559 unto MosesH4872 and AaronH175, Because ye believedH539 me not, to sanctifyH6942 me in the eyesH5869 of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, therefore ye shall not bringH935 this congregationH6951 into the landH776 which I have givenH5414 them.
This isH1992 the waterH4325 of MeribahH4809; because the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 stroveH7378 with the LORDH3068, and he was sanctifiedH6942 in them. {Meribah: that is, Strife}
And MosesH4872 sentH7971 messengersH4397 from KadeshH6946 unto the kingH4428 of EdomH123, Thus saithH559 thy brotherH251 IsraelH3478, Thou knowestH3045 all the travailH8513 that hath befallenH4672 us: {befallen…: Heb. found us}
How our fathersH1 went downH3381 into EgyptH4714, and we have dweltH3427 in EgyptH4714 a longH7227 timeH3117; and the EgyptiansH4714 vexedH7489 us, and our fathersH1:
And when we criedH6817 unto the LORDH3068, he heardH8085 our voiceH6963, and sentH7971 an angelH4397, and hath brought us forthH3318 out of EgyptH4714: and, behold, we are in KadeshH6946, a cityH5892 in the uttermostH7097 of thy borderH1366:
Let us passH5674, I pray thee, through thy countryH776: we will not passH5674 through the fieldsH7704, or through the vineyardsH3754, neither will we drinkH8354 of the waterH4325 of the wellsH875: we will goH3212 by the king'sH4428 high wayH1870, we will not turnH5186 to the right handH3225 nor to the leftH8040, until we have passedH5674 thy bordersH1366.
And EdomH123 saidH559 unto him, Thou shalt not passH5674 by me, lest I come outH3318 againstH7125 thee with the swordH2719.
And the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 saidH559 unto him, We will goH5927 by the high wayH4546: and if I and my cattleH4735 drinkH8354 of thy waterH4325, then I will payH5414+H4377 for it: I will only, without doing any thingH1697 else, go throughH5674 on my feetH7272.
And he saidH559, Thou shalt not go throughH5674. And EdomH123 came outH3318 againstH7125 him with muchH3515 peopleH5971, and with a strongH2389 handH3027.
Thus EdomH123 refusedH3985 to giveH5414 IsraelH3478 passageH5674 through his borderH1366: wherefore IsraelH3478 turned awayH5186 from him.
And the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, even the whole congregationH5712, journeyedH5265 from KadeshH6946, and cameH935 unto mountH2022 HorH2023.
And the LORDH3068 spakeH559 unto MosesH4872 and AaronH175 in mountH2022 HorH2023, by the coastH1366 of the landH776 of EdomH123, sayingH559,
AaronH175 shall be gatheredH622 unto his peopleH5971: for he shall not enterH935 into the landH776 which I have givenH5414 unto the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, because ye rebelled againstH4784 my wordH6310 at the waterH4325 of MeribahH4809. {word: Heb. mouth}
TakeH3947 AaronH175 and EleazarH499 his sonH1121, and bring them upH5927 unto mountH2022 HorH2023:
And stripH6584 AaronH175 of his garmentsH899, and putH3847 them upon EleazarH499 his sonH1121: and AaronH175 shall be gatheredH622 unto his people, and shall dieH4191 there.
And MosesH4872 didH6213 as the LORDH3068 commandedH6680: and they went upH5927 into mountH2022 HorH2023 in the sightH5869 of all the congregationH5712.
And MosesH4872 strippedH6584 AaronH175 of his garmentsH899, and putH3847 them upon EleazarH499 his sonH1121; and AaronH175 diedH4191 there in the topH7218 of the mountH2022: and MosesH4872 and EleazarH499 came downH3381 from the mountH2022.
And when all the congregationH5712 sawH7200 that AaronH175 was deadH1478, they mournedH1058 for AaronH175 thirtyH7970 daysH3117, even all the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478.

And of LeviH3878 he saidH559, Let thy ThummimH8550 and thy UrimH224 be with thy holyH2623 oneH376, whom thou didst proveH5254 at MassahH4532, and with whom thou didst striveH7378 at the watersH4325 of MeribahH4809;
And he calledH7121 the nameH8034 of the placeH4725 MassahH4532, and MeribahH4809, because of the chidingH7379 of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, and because they temptedH5254 the LORDH3068, sayingH559, IsH3426 the LORDH3068 amongH7130 us, or not? {Massah: that is, Temptation} {Meribah: that is, Chiding, or, Strife}
But the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 shall be exaltedH1361 in judgmentH4941, and GodH410 that is holyH6918 shall be sanctifiedH6942 in righteousnessH6666. {God…: or, the holy God: Heb. the God the holy}
HardenH7185 not your heartH3824, as in the provocationH4808, and as in the dayH3117 of temptationH4531 in the wildernessH4057: {provocation: Heb. contention}
Because ye trespassedH4603 against me amongH8432 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 at the watersH4325 of Meribah-KadeshH4808+H6946, in the wildernessH4057 of ZinH6790; because ye sanctifiedH6942 me not in the midstH8432 of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478. {Meribah-Kadesh: or, strife at Kadesh}
I will acceptH7521 you with your sweetH5207 savourH7381, when I bring you outH3318 from the peopleH5971, and gatherH6908 you out of the countriesH776 wherein ye have been scatteredH6327; and I will be sanctifiedH6942 in you beforeH5869 the heathenH1471. {sweet…: Heb. savour of rest}
They angeredH7107 him also at the watersH4325 of strifeH4808+H4809, so that it went illH3415 with MosesH4872 for their sakes:
Because they provokedH4784 his spiritH7307, so that he spake unadvisedlyH981 with his lipsH8193.
They did not destroyH8045 the nationsH5971, concerning whom the LORDH3068 commandedH559 them:
But were mingledH6148 among the heathenH1471, and learnedH3925 their worksH4639.
And they servedH5647 their idolsH6091: which were a snareH4170 unto them.
Yea, they sacrificedH2076 their sonsH1121 and their daughtersH1323 unto devilsH7700,
And shedH8210 innocentH5355 bloodH1818, even the bloodH1818 of their sonsH1121 and of their daughtersH1323, whom they sacrificedH2076 unto the idolsH6091 of CanaanH3667: and the landH776 was pollutedH2610 with bloodH1818.
Thus were they defiledH2930 with their own worksH4639, and went a whoringH2181 with their own inventionsH4611.
Therefore was the wrathH639 of the LORDH3068 kindledH2734 against his peopleH5971, insomuch that he abhorredH8581 his own inheritanceH5159.
And he gaveH5414 them into the handH3027 of the heathenH1471; and they that hatedH8130 them ruledH4910 over them.
Their enemiesH341 also oppressedH3905 them, and they were brought into subjectionH3665 under their handH3027.
ManyH7227 timesH6471 did he deliverH5337 them; but they provokedH4784 him with their counselH6098, and were brought lowH4355 for their iniquityH5771. {brought…: or, impoverished, or, weakened}
Nevertheless he regardedH7200 their afflictionH6862, when he heardH8085 their cryH7440:
And he rememberedH2142 for them his covenantH1285, and repentedH5162 according to the multitudeH7230 of his merciesH2617.
He madeH5414 them also to be pitiedH7356 ofH6440 all those that carried them captivesH7617.
SaveH3467 us, O LORDH3068 our GodH430, and gatherH6908 us from among the heathenH1471, to give thanksH3034 unto thy holyH6944 nameH8034, and to triumphH7623 in thy praiseH8416.
BlessedH1288 be the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478 from everlastingH5769 to everlastingH5769: and let all the peopleH5971 sayH559, AmenH543. PraiseH1984 ye the LORDH3050. {Praise…: Heb. Hallelujah}
And I will sanctifyH6942 my greatH1419 nameH8034, which was profanedH2490 among the heathenH1471, which ye have profanedH2490 in the midstH8432 of them; and the heathenH1471 shall knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069, when I shall be sanctifiedH6942 in you before their eyesH5869. {their: or, your}
And thou shalt come upH5927 against my peopleH5971 of IsraelH3478, as a cloudH6051 to coverH3680 the landH776; it shall be in the latterH319 daysH3117, and I will bringH935 thee against my landH776, that the heathenH1471 may knowH3045 me, when I shall be sanctifiedH6942 in thee, O GogH1463, before their eyesH5869.
