18 about the well that the princes dug,

that the nobles of the people sank—

the nobles with scepters and staffs.”

Then they went from the wilderness to Mattanah,

18 The princes digged the well,

The nobles of the people digged it,

By the direction of the lawgiver, with their staves.

And from the wilderness they went to Mattanah:

18 Sing of this well,

which princes dug,

which great leaders hollowed out

with their scepters and staffs.”

Then the Israelites left the wilderness and proceeded on through Mattanah,

18 The well the leaders sank,

Dug by the nation’s nobles,

By the lawgiver, with their staves.”

And from the wilderness they went to Mattanah,

18 Princes dug this well.

Important men made it.

With their scepters and poles, they dug it.”

The people went from the desert to Mattanah.

18 The well, which the princes digged,

Which the nobles of the people delved,

With the sceptre, and with their staves.

And from the wilderness they journeyed to Mattanah;

18 Well which princes digged, which the nobles of the people hollowed out at the word of the lawgiver, with their staves. And from the wilderness they went to Mattanah;

18 the well dug by princes, 

dug out by the nobles of the people 

with their scepters and staffs.” 

From the desert they went to Mattanah,

18 The princes dug the well;

the nobles of the people hollowed it out

with a scepter and with their staffs.

They went from the wilderness to Mattanah,

18 the well that the leaders sank,

that the nobles of the people dug,

with the scepter, with the staff.”

From the wilderness to Mattanah,

18 Well water that the princes dug, that the leaders of the people dug, with a staff and with their rods.” And from the desert they continued to Mattanah,

18 Sing about the well the princes dug.

Sing about the well the nobles of the people dug.

All of their rulers were holding their rods and staffs.”

Then the people of Israel went from the desert to Mattanah.

18 “The well, which the leaders sank,

Which the nobles of the people dug,

With the scepter and with their staffs.”

And from the wilderness they continued to Mattanah,
