民数记-Numbers 第 17 章

17:1耶和华对摩西说,
Then Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
17:2你要告诉以色列人,从他们取杖,每宗族一根;从他们所有的首领,按着宗族,共取十二根;你要将各人的名字写在各人的杖上,
Speak to the children of Israel, and take from them rods, one for each father's house, twelve rods from all their leaders according to their fathers' houses; you shall write everyone's name upon his rod.
17:3并要将亚伦的名字写在利未的杖上,因为各宗族的族长必有一根杖。
And you shall write Aaron's name upon the rod of Levi, for there shall be one rod for the head of each of their fathers' houses.
17:4你要把这些杖放在会幕内见证柜前,我与你们相会之处。
And you shall place them in the Tent of Meeting before the testimony, where I meet with you.
17:5我拣选的那人,他的杖必发芽;这样,我必使以色列人向你们所发、对我的怨言止息。
And the rod of the man whom I choose shall bud, and I will put a stop to the murmurings of the children of Israel against Me, which they murmur against you.
17:6于是摩西告诉以色列人。他们的首领就把杖交给他,按着宗族,每首领一根,共有十二根;亚伦的杖也在其中。
So Moses spoke to the children of Israel. And every one of their leaders gave him a rod, one rod for each leader according to their fathers' houses, twelve rods, with the rod of Aaron among their rods.
17:7摩西就把杖放在见证的会幕内,在耶和华面前。
And Moses placed the rods before Jehovah in the Tent of the Testimony.
17:8第二天,摩西进见证的会幕去;看哪,利未家亚伦的杖已经发了芽,甚至生了花苞,开了花,结了熟杏。
And on the next day Moses went into the Tent of the Testimony, and there was the rod of Aaron for the house of Levi: it had budded; it even put forth buds and produced blossoms and bore ripe almonds.
17:9摩西就把所有的杖从耶和华面前拿出来,给以色列众人看;他们看见了,各首领就把自己的杖拿去。
And Moses brought out all the rods from before Jehovah to all the children of Israel, and they looked; and each one took his rod.
17:10耶和华对摩西说,把亚伦的杖放回见证柜前,给这些背叛之子留作记号;这样,你就使他们向我发的怨言止息,免得他们死亡。
Then Jehovah said to Moses, Put back the rod of Aaron before the testimony to be kept as a sign against the rebels, so that you may put an end to their murmurings against Me, and they not die.
17:11摩西就这样行;耶和华怎样吩咐他,他就怎样行。
And Moses did so; just as Jehovah commanded him, so he did.
17:12以色列人对摩西说,我们死啦,我们灭亡啦,我们都灭亡啦!
And the children of Israel spoke to Moses, saying, Alas, we die out; we perish; all of us perish.
17:13凡挨近耶和华帐幕的是必死的。难道我们都要死么?
Everyone who comes near, who comes near to the tabernacle of Jehovah, dies. Are we to completely die out?
