¶ The .xx. Chapter. ¶ MirIam dyeth. The people murmur. They haue water euen oute of the rocke. Ed&obar; denyeth the Israelites passage thorowe hys realme. The death of Aaron in whose rowme Eleazar succedeth.

A   And the children of Israel came &wt; the whole multitude into the deserte note of Sin in þe; fyrst moneth, and the people abode at Cades. And there dyed MirIam, and was buryed there. But there was no water for the multitude, &cross2; and they gathered them selues together agaynst Moses ∧ Aaron. And the people chode with Moses, and spake, sayinge: wolde God that we had perysshed, when oure brethren dyed before the Lorde. Why haue ye brought the congregacyon of the Lorde vnto thys wyldernesse, that both we and oure catell shulde dye in it? noteWherfore haue ye made vs to go oute of Egypte, to brynge vs into this vngracious place, which is no place of seed nor of fygges nor vynes, nor of p&obar;granates, nether is there any water to drynke?

B   And Moses and Aaron went from the c&obar;gregacyon vnto the dore of the tabernacle of witnesse, and fell vp&obar; theyr faces. (And they cryed vnto the Lorde and sayde, O Lord God, heare the crie of thys people, and open them thy treasure, euen a fo&ubar;tayne of lyuynge water, that they maye be satisfyed, and that theyr murmurynge maye ceasse.) And the glory of þe; Lorde appered vnto them. And the Lorde spake vnto Moses sayinge: take the rodd, and gether thou and thy brother Aaron the congregacyon together, and speake vnto the rocke before theyr eyes, and it shall geue forth hys water. And thou shalt brynge them water out of the rocke, to geue the company dryncke, and theyr beastes also.

noteAnd Moses toke the rodd from before the Lorde, as he c&obar;maunded hym. And Moses ∧ Aaron gethered the congregacy&obar; together before the rocke: and Moses sayde vnto them: heare ye rebellyons, must we fett you water oute of thys rocke? And Moses lyfte vp hys hande, and with hys note rodd he smote the rocke two tymes, and the water came oute aboundantly, and the multitude drancke and theyr beastes also.

C   And the Lorde spake vnto Moses ∧ Aaron: because ye beleued me not, to sanctifye me in the eyes of the chyldren of Israel, therfore ye shall not brynge thys congregacyon into the lande whyche I haue geuen them. Thys is the water of stryffe, because þe; chyldr&ebar; of Israel stroue with the Lorde, ∧ &rhand; he was sanctifyed in them. &cross3;

And Moses note sent messengers from Cades vnto the kynge of Edom. Thus sayeth thy brother Israel: Thou knowest all þe; trauell that hath happened vs, Oure fathers went doune into Egpte, and we haue dwelt in Egypte a longe tyme, and the Egypcians vexed vs ∧ oure fathers. And wh&abar; we cryed

-- --

The brasen serpent. vnto the Lorde, he herde oure voyce, and sent an angell, and hath fett vs vp out of Egypt. And beholde, we are in Cades, eu&ebar; in the vttermost cyte of thy border. We wyll go now thorow thy co&ubar;tre: but note we will not go thorowe the feldes or vyneyardes, nether wyll we dryncke of the water of the fountaynes, we wyll go by the kynges hye waye, and nether turne vnto the ryghte hande nor to the lefte, vntyll we be past thy co&ubar;tre. And Ed&obar; answered hym. D   Thou shalt not go by me, lest I come out agaynst the with the swerde. The chyldren of Israel sayde vnto hym: we wyll go by the beat&ebar; waye: and yf I and my catell drynke of thy water, I wyll paye for it &club; I wyll but onely (without any harme) go thorowe on my fete. He answered. Thou shalt not go thorowe. And Edom came oute agaynst hym with moche people, and wyth a myghtie power. And thus Edom denied to geue Israel passage thorow his co&ubar;tre: wherfore Israel turned awaye from hym.

And the chyldren of Israel departed from Cades, and came vnto mount Hor wyth all the congregacyon. And the Lorde spake vnto Moses and Aaron in mount Hor, harde by the coaste of the londe of Edom sayinge: Aaron shall be &rhand; gathered vnto hys people, for he shall not come into the l&abar;de whych I haue geuen vnto the chyldr&ebar; of Israel: because ye disobeyed my mouth at the water of stryffe. Take Aaron and Eleazar his sonne, and brynge them vp into mount Hor, and thou shalt strype Aaron out of hys vestim&ebar;tes, and put them vpon Eleazar hys sonne, and Aaron shalbe gathered vnto hys people and shall dye there.

And Moses dyd as the Lorde commaunded: and they w&ebar;t vp into mount Hor in the syghte of all the multitude. And Moses toke of Aarons clothes, and put them vp&obar; Eleazar hys sonne note and Aaron dyed there in the toppe of the mount. And Moses and Eleazar came doune oute of the mount. Whan all the multytude sawe that Aaron was deed, they mourned for Aaron thyrtye dayes, thorowe oute all the housholdes of Israel.
