اَلتَّثْنِيَة 2
| «ثُمَّ تَحَوَّلْنَا وَٱرْتَحَلْنَا إِلَى ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ عَلَى طَرِيقِ بَحْرِ سُوفَ كَمَا كَلَّمَنِي ٱلرَّبُّ، وَدُرْنَا بِجَبَلِ سِعِيرَ أَيَّامًا كَثِيرَةً. | ١ 1 |
Then turned we, and set forward towards the desert by way of the Red Sea, as Yahweh, spake unto me; and we encompassed Mount Seir many days.
| ثُمَّ كَلَّمَنِي ٱلرَّبُّ قَائِلًا: | ٢ 2 |
And Yahweh spake unto me, saying:
| كَفَاكُمْ دَوَرَانٌ بِهَذَا ٱلْجَبَلِ. تَحَوَّلُوا نَحْوَ ٱلشِّمَالِ. | ٣ 3 |
Long enough, have ye encompassed this mountain, —turn yourselves north, wards.
| وَأَوْصِ ٱلشَّعْبَ قَائِلًا: أَنْتُمْ مَارُّونَ بِتُخْمِ إِخْوَتِكُمْ بَنِي عِيسُو ٱلسَّاكِنِينَ فِي سِعِيرَ، فَيَخَافُونَ مِنْكُمْ فَٱحْتَرِزُوا جِدًّا. | ٤ 4 |
And, the people, command thou saying, Ye are about to pass through the boundary of your brethren the sons of Esau, who are dwelling in Seir, —and should they be afraid of you, take ye good heed to yourselves:
| لَا تَهْجِمُوا عَلَيْهِمْ، لِأَنِّي لَا أُعْطِيكُمْ مِنْ أَرْضِهِمْ وَلَا وَطْأَةَ قَدَمٍ، لِأَنِّي لِعِيسُو قَدْ أَعْطَيْتُ جَبَلَ سِعِيرَ مِيرَاثًا. | ٥ 5 |
do not engage in strife with them, for I will not give you of their land, so much as place for the tread of a foot-sole, —for as a possession to Esau, have I given Mount Seir.
| طَعَامًا تَشْتَرُونَ مِنْهُمْ بِٱلْفِضَّةِ لِتَأْكُلُوا، وَمَاءً أَيْضًا تَبْتَاعُونَ مِنْهُمْ بِٱلْفِضَّةِ لِتَشْرَبُوا. | ٦ 6 |
Food, shall ye buy of them with silver so shall ye eat, —yea even water, shall ye buy of them with silver so shall ye drink.
| لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَكَ قَدْ بَارَكَكَ فِي كُلِّ عَمَلِ يَدِكَ، عَارِفًا مَسِيرَكَ فِي هَذَا ٱلْقَفْرِ ٱلْعَظِيمِ. اَلْآنَ أَرْبَعُونَ سَنَةً لِلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ مَعَكَ، لَمْ يَنْقُصْ عَنْكَ شَيْءٌ. | ٧ 7 |
For Yahweh thy God, hath blessed thee in all the work of thy hand, he hath considered thy traversing of this great desert, —these forty years, hath Yahweh thy God been with thee, thou hast lacked, nothing.
| فَعَبَرْنَا عَنْ إِخْوَتِنَا بَنِي عِيسُو ٱلسَّاكِنِينَ فِي سِعِيرَ عَلَى طَرِيقِ ٱلْعَرَبَةِ، عَلَى أَيْلَةَ، وَعَلَى عِصْيُونِ جَابِرَ، ثُمَّ تَحَوَّلْنَا وَمَرَرْنَا فِي طَرِيقِ بَرِّيَّةِ مُوآبَ. | ٨ 8 |
So we passed on, a way from our brethren the sons of Esau who dwell in Seir, from the way of the waste plain, from Elath, and from Ezion-geber, —and we turned and passed on by way of the desert of Moab.
| «فَقَالَ لِي ٱلرَّبُّ: لَا تُعَادِ مُوآبَ وَلَا تُثِرْ عَلَيْهِمْ حَرْبًا، لِأَنِّي لَا أُعْطِيكَ مِنْ أَرْضِهِمْ مِيرَاثًا، لِأَنِّي لِبَنِي لُوطٍ قَدْ أَعْطَيْتُ «عَارَ» مِيرَاثًا. | ٩ 9 |
And Yahweh said unto me—Do not lay siege to Moab, nor engage in strife with them in battle, —for I will not give unto thee of this land as a possession, for unto the sons of Lot, have I given Ar, as a possession.
| ٱلْإِيمِيُّونَ سَكَنُوا فِيهَا قَبْلًا. شَعْبٌ كَبِيرٌ وَكَثِيرٌ وَطَوِيلٌ كَٱلْعَنَاقِيِّينَ. | ١٠ 10 |
the Emim, formerly dwelt therein, —a people great and many and tall, like the Anakim.
| هُمْ أَيْضًا يُحْسَبُونَ رَفَائِيِّينَ كَٱلْعَنَاقِيِّينَ، لَكِنَّ ٱلْمُوآبِيِّينَ يَدْعُونَهُمْ إِيمِيِّينَ. | ١١ 11 |
Giants, used, they also, to be accounted like the Anakim, —but the Moabites, called them Emim.
| وَفِي سِعِيرَ سَكَنَ قَبْلًا ٱلْحُورِيُّونَ، فَطَرَدَهُمْ بَنُو عِيسُو وَأَبَادُوهُمْ مِنْ قُدَّامِهِمْ وَسَكَنُوا مَكَانَهُمْ، كَمَا فَعَلَ إِسْرَائِيلُ بِأَرْضِ مِيرَاثِهِمِ ٱلَّتِي أَعْطَاهُمُ ٱلرَّبُّ. | ١٢ 12 |
And in Seir, dwelt the Horim aforetime, but, the sons of Esau, dispossessed them, and destroyed them from before them, and dwelt in their stead, —as did Israel unto the land of his own possession, which Yahweh had given unto them.
| اَلْآنَ قُومُوا وَٱعْبُرُوا وَادِيَ زَارَدَ. فَعَبَرْنَا وَادِيَ زَارَدَ. | ١٣ 13 |
Now, arise, and pass ye over the ravine of Zered. So we passed over the ravine of Zered.
| وَٱلْأَيَّامُ ٱلَّتِي سِرْنَا فِيهَا مِنْ قَادَشَ بَرْنِيعَ حَتَّى عَبَرْنَا وَادِيَ زَارَدَ، كَانَتْ ثَمَانِيَ وَثَلَاثِينَ سَنَةً، حَتَّى فَنِيَ كُلُّ ٱلْجِيلِ، رِجَالُ ٱلْحَرْبِ مِنْ وَسَطِ ٱلْمَحَلَّةِ، كَمَا أَقْسَمَ ٱلرَّبُّ لَهُمْ. | ١٤ 14 |
Now, the days in which we journeyed from Kadesh-barnea, as far as where we crossed the ravine of Zered, were thirty-eight years, —until all the generation of the men of war were consumed out of the midst of the camp, as Yahweh had sworn unto them.
| وَيَدُ ٱلرَّبِّ أَيْضًا كَانَتْ عَلَيْهِمْ لِإِبَادَتِهِمْ مِنْ وَسَطِ ٱلْمَحَلَّةِ حَتَّى فَنُوا. | ١٥ 15 |
Yea, even the hand of Yahweh was against them, to destroy them out of the midst of the camp, —until they were consumed.
| «فَعِنْدَمَا فَنِيَ جَمِيعُ رِجَالِ ٱلْحَرْبِ بِٱلْمَوْتِ مِنْ وَسَطِ ٱلشَّعْبِ، | ١٦ 16 |
So it came to pass when all the men of war were consumed by dying, out of the midst of the people,
| كَلَّمَنِي ٱلرَّبُّ قَائِلًا: | ١٧ 17 |
then spake Yahweh unto me, saying:
| أَنْتَ مَارٌّ ٱلْيَوْمَ بِتُخْمِ مُوآبَ، بِعَارَ. | ١٨ 18 |
Thou, art passing, to-day, the boundary of Moab even Ar;
| فَمَتَى قَرُبْتَ إِلَى تُجَاهِ بَنِي عَمُّونَ، لَا تُعَادِهِمْ وَلَا تَهْجِمُوا عَلَيْهِمْ، لِأَنِّي لَا أُعْطِيكَ مِنْ أَرْضِ بَنِي عَمُّونَ مِيرَاثًا، لِأَنِّي لِبَنِي لُوطٍ قَدْ أَعْطَيْتُهَا مِيرَاثًا. | ١٩ 19 |
so wilt thou draw near over against the sons of Ammon, do not thou besiege them neither engage in strife with them, —for I will not give of the land of the sons of Ammon unto thee as a possession, for unto the sons of Lot, have I given it as a possession.
| هِيَ أَيْضًا تُحْسَبُ أَرْضَ رَفَائِيِّينَ. سَكَنَ ٱلرَّفَائِيُّونَ فِيهَا قَبْلًا، لَكِنَّ ٱلْعَمُّونِيِّينَ يَدْعُونَهُمْ زَمْزُمِيِّينَ. | ٢٠ 20 |
A land of giants, used, that also, to be accounted, —giants, dwelt therein aforetime, but the Ammonites, called them Zamzummim:
| شَعْبٌ كَبِيرٌ وَكَثِيرٌ وَطَوِيلٌ كَٱلْعَنَاقِيِّينَ، أَبَادَهُمُ ٱلرَّبُّ مِنْ قُدَّامِهِمْ، فَطَرَدُوهُمْ وَسَكَنُوا مَكَانَهُمْ. | ٢١ 21 |
a people great and many and tall, like the Anakim, —but Yahweh destroyed them from before them, and they took their possessions, and dwelt in their stead:
| كَمَا فَعَلَ لِبَنِي عِيسُو ٱلسَّاكِنِينَ فِي سِعِيرَ ٱلَّذِينَ أَتْلَفَ ٱلْحُورِيِّينَ مِنْ قُدَّامِهِمْ، فَطَرَدُوهُمْ وَسَكَنُوا مَكَانَهُمْ إِلَى هَذَا ٱلْيَوْمِ. | ٢٢ 22 |
as he did for the sons of Esau, who are dwelling in Seir, —when he destroyed the Horim from before them, and they took their possessions and have dwelt in their stead, even unto this day.
| وَٱلْعُوِّيُّونَ ٱلسَّاكِنُونَ فِي ٱلْقُرَى إِلَى غَزَّةَ، أَبَادَهُمُ ٱلْكَفْتُورِيُّونَ ٱلَّذِينَ خَرَجُوا مِنْ كَفْتُورَ وَسَكَنُوا مَكَانَهُمْ. | ٢٣ 23 |
The Avvim also, who dwelt in settlements as far as Gaza, Caphtorim, who were coming forth out of Caphtor, destroyed them, and dwelt in their stead.
| «قُومُوا ٱرْتَحِلُوا وَٱعْبُرُوا وَادِيَ أَرْنُونَ. اُنْظُرْ. قَدْ دَفَعْتُ إِلَى يَدِكَ سِيحُونَ مَلِكَ حَشْبُونَ ٱلْأَمُورِيَّ وَأَرْضَهُ. ٱبْتَدِئْ تَمَلَّكْ وَأَثِرْ عَلَيْهِ حَرْبًا. | ٢٤ 24 |
Arise ye, set forward and cross over the ravine of Arnon, see! I have given into thy hand—Sihon king of Heshbon, the Amorite and his land, begin—take possession, —and engage in strife with him in battle.
| فِي هَذَا ٱلْيَوْمِ أَبْتَدِئُ أَجْعَلُ خَشْيَتَكَ وَخَوْفَكَ أَمَامَ وُجُوهِ ٱلشُّعُوبِ تَحْتَ كُلِّ ٱلسَّمَاءِ. ٱلَّذِينَ يَسْمَعُونَ خَبَرَكَ يَرْتَعِدُونَ وَيَجْزَعُونَ أَمَامَكَ. | ٢٥ 25 |
This day, will I begin to extend the dread of thee and the fear of thee over the face of the peoples under all the heavens, —who will hear the report of thee, then will they quake and writhe in pain because of thee.
| «فَأَرْسَلْتُ رُسُلًا مِنْ بَرِّيَّةِ قَدِيمُوتَ إِلَى سِيحُونَ مَلِكِ حَشْبُونَ بِكَلَامِ سَلَامٍ قَائِلًا: | ٢٦ 26 |
So I sent messengers out of the desert of Kademoth, unto Sihon, king of Heshbon, —with words of peace saying:
| أَمُرُّ فِي أَرْضِكَ. أَسْلُكُ ٱلطَّرِيقَ ٱلطَّرِيقَ، لَا أَمِيلُ يَمِينًا وَلَا شِمَالًا. | ٢٧ 27 |
I would pass along through thy land, by the road, by the road, will I go, —I will not turn aside, to the right hand or to the left:
| طَعَامًا بِٱلْفِضَّةِ تَبِيعُنِي لِآكُلَ، وَمَاءً بِٱلْفِضَّةِ تُعْطِينِي لِأَشْرَبَ. أَمُرُّ بِرِجْلَيَّ فَقَطْ. | ٢٨ 28 |
Food for silver, shalt thou sell me so will I eat, and water for silver, shalt thou let me have, so will I drink, —only I would pass through on my feet; —
| كَمَا فَعَلَ بِي بَنُو عِيسُو ٱلسَّاكِنُونَ فِي سِعِيرَ، وَٱلْمُوآبِيُّونَ ٱلسَّاكِنُونَ فِي عَارَ، إِلَى أَنْ أَعْبُرَ ٱلْأُرْدُنَّ إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلَّتِي أَعْطَانَا ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُنَا. | ٢٩ 29 |
as the sons of Esau, who are dwelling in Seir, did to me, and the Moabites who are dwelling in Ar, —until that I pass over the Jordan, into the land which, Yahweh our God, is giving unto us.
| لَكِنْ لَمْ يَشَأْ سِيحُونُ مَلِكُ حَشْبُونَ أَنْ يَدَعَنَا نَمُرَّ بِهِ، لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَكَ قَسَّى رُوحَهُ، وَقَوَّى قَلْبَهُ لِكَيْ يَدْفَعَهُ إِلَى يَدِكَ كَمَا فِي هَذَا ٱلْيَوْمِ. | ٣٠ 30 |
But Sihon king of Heshbon, was not willing, to let us pass along through it, —for Yahweh thy God had suffered him to make his spirit harsh and his heart bold, that he might give him into thy hand—(as [appeareth] this day).
| وَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِي: اُنْظُرْ. قَدِ ٱبْتَدَأْتُ أَدْفَعُ أَمَامَكَ سِيحُونَ وَأَرْضَهُ. ٱبْتَدِئْ تَمَلَّكْ حَتَّى تَمْتَلِكَ أَرْضَهُ. | ٣١ 31 |
Then said Yahweh unto me, See! I have begun to deliver up before thee Sihon and his land, —begin take possession, that thou mayest make a possession of his land.
| فَخَرَجَ سِيحُونُ لِلِقَائِنَا هُوَ وَجَمِيعُ قَوْمِهِ لِلْحَرْبِ إِلَى يَاهَصَ، | ٣٢ 32 |
So then Sihon came out to meet us he, and all his people, to give battle at Jahaz.
| فَدَفَعَهُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُنَا أَمَامَنَا، فَضَرَبْنَاهُ وَبَنِيهِ وَجَمِيعَ قَوْمِهِ. | ٣٣ 33 |
And Yahweh our God delivered him up before us, —and we smote him and his sons, and all his people
| وَأَخَذْنَا كُلَّ مُدُنِهِ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْوَقْتِ، وَحَرَّمْنَا مِنْ كُلِّ مَدِينَةٍ: ٱلرِّجَالَ وَٱلنِّسَاءَ وَٱلْأَطْفَالَ. لَمْ نُبْقِ شَارِدًا. | ٣٤ 34 |
And we captured all his cities, at that time, and devoted to destruction every city of males, with the women and the little ones, —we left not remaining a survivor:
| لَكِنَّ ٱلْبَهَائِمَ نَهَبْنَاهَا لِأَنْفُسِنَا، وَغَنِيمَةَ ٱلْمُدُنِ ٱلَّتِي أَخَذْنَا، | ٣٥ 35 |
only the cattle, made we our prey, —and the spoil of the cities which we captured.
| مِنْ عَرُوعِيرَ ٱلَّتِي عَلَى حَافَةِ وَادِي أَرْنُونَ وَٱلْمَدِينَةِ ٱلَّتِي فِي ٱلْوَادِي، إِلَى جِلْعَادَ، لَمْ تَكُنْ قَرْيَةٌ قَدِ ٱمْتَنَعَتْ عَلَيْنَا. ٱلْجَمِيعُ دَفَعَهُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُنَا أَمَامَنَا. | ٣٦ 36 |
From Aroer, which is on the edge of the ravine of Arnon and the city that is in the ravine even as far as Gilead, there was not a fortress that proved too high for us, —the whole, did Yahweh our God deliver up before us.
| وَلَكِنَّ أَرْضَ بَنِي عَمُّونَ لَمْ نَقْرَبْهَا. كُلَّ نَاحِيَةِ وَادِي يَبُّوقَ وَمُدُنَ ٱلْجَبَلِ وَكُلَّ مَا أَوْصَى ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُنَا. | ٣٧ 37 |
Only unto the land of the sons of Ammon, didst thou not come near, —all the side of the Jabbok ravine, nor the cities of the hill country, nor any which Yahweh our God had forbidden to us.
