< اَلتَّثْنِيَة 4 >
«فَٱلْآنَ يَا إِسْرَائِيلُ ٱسْمَعِ ٱلْفَرَائِضَ وَٱلْأَحْكَامَ ٱلَّتِي أَنَا أُعَلِّمُكُمْ لِتَعْمَلُوهَا، لِكَيْ تَحْيَوْا وَتَدْخُلُوا وَتَمْتَلِكُوا ٱلْأَرْضَ ٱلَّتِي ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُ آبَائِكُمْ يُعْطِيكُمْ. | ١ 1 |
People of Israel, pay attention to the rules and regulations I'm teaching you to observe. That way you can stay alive, and go in and take over the country the Lord, the God of your forefathers, is giving you.
لَا تَزِيدُوا عَلَى ٱلْكَلَامِ ٱلَّذِي أَنَا أُوصِيكُمْ بِهِ وَلَا تُنَقِّصُوا مِنْهُ، لِكَيْ تَحْفَظُوا وَصَايَا ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكُمُ ٱلَّتِي أَنَا أُوصِيكُمْ بِهَا. | ٢ 2 |
You are not to add to or take away from what I'm telling you, so that you can keep the commandments of the Lord your God that I'm ordering you to follow.
أَعْيُنُكُمْ قَدْ أَبْصَرَتْ مَا فَعَلَهُ ٱلرَّبُّ بِبَعْلَ فَغُورَ. إِنَّ كُلَّ مَنْ ذَهَبَ وَرَاءَ بَعْلَ فَغُورَ أَبَادَهُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكُمْ مِنْ وَسَطِكُمْ، | ٣ 3 |
You've seen for yourselves what the Lord did at Baal-peor where the Lord your God killed everyone among you who worshiped Baal of Peor.
وَأَمَّا أَنْتُمُ ٱلْمُلْتَصِقُونَ بِٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكُمْ فَجَمِيعُكُمْ أَحْيَاءٌ ٱلْيَوْمَ. | ٤ 4 |
Those of you who were faithful to the Lord your God are still alive today, every one of you.
اُنْظُرْ. قَدْ عَلَّمْتُكُمْ فَرَائِضَ وَأَحْكَامًا كَمَا أَمَرَنِي ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهِي، لِكَيْ تَعْمَلُوا هَكَذَا فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلَّتِي أَنْتُمْ دَاخِلُونَ إِلَيْهَا لِكَيْ تَمْتَلِكُوهَا. | ٥ 5 |
Listen, I have taught you the rules and regulations just as the Lord my God ordered me to do, so you can follow them in the country that you are about to enter and take over.
فَٱحْفَظُوا وَٱعْمَلُوا. لِأَنَّ ذَلِكَ حِكْمَتُكُمْ وَفِطْنَتُكُمْ أَمَامَ أَعْيُنِ ٱلشُّعُوبِ ٱلَّذِينَ يَسْمَعُونَ كُلَّ هَذِهِ ٱلْفَرَائِضِ، فَيَقُولُونَ: هَذَا ٱلشَّعْبُ ٱلْعَظِيمُ إِنَّمَا هُوَ شَعْبٌ حَكِيمٌ وَفَطِنٌ. | ٦ 6 |
Be careful to observe them, because this will demonstrate your wisdom and insight to the other people living there who are watching. They will find out about all these rules and say, “The people of this great nation are very wise and have good insight.”
لِأَنَّهُ أَيُّ شَعْبٍ هُوَ عَظِيمٌ لَهُ آلِهَةٌ قَرِيبَةٌ مِنْهُ كَٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِنَا فِي كُلِّ أَدْعِيَتِنَا إِلَيْهِ؟ | ٧ 7 |
What nation is as great as us, having a god so close to them as the Lord our God is to us whenever we call on him?
وَأَيُّ شَعْبٍ هُوَ عَظِيمٌ لَهُ فَرَائِضُ وَأَحْكَامٌ عَادِلَةٌ مِثْلُ كُلِّ هَذِهِ ٱلشَّرِيعَةِ ٱلَّتِي أَنَا وَاضِعٌ أَمَامَكُمُ ٱلْيَوْمَ؟ | ٨ 8 |
What nation is as great as us, having such good rules and regulations like all these laws that I'm placing before you today?
«إِنَّمَا ٱحْتَرِزْ وَٱحفَظْ نَفْسَكَ جِدًّا لِئَلَّا تَنْسَى ٱلْأُمُورَ ٱلَّتِي أَبْصَرَتْ عَيْنَاكَ، وَلِئَلَّا تَزُولَ مِنْ قَلْبِكَ كُلَّ أَيَّامِ حَيَاتِكَ. وَعَلِّمْهَا أَوْلَادَكَ وَأَوْلَادَ أَوْلَادِكَ. | ٩ 9 |
Just make sure to be very careful, and really watch what you do, so you don't forget the things you've have seen. Keep them in mind as long as you live. Teach them to your children and grandchildren.
فِي ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلَّذِي وَقَفْتَ فِيهِ أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ فِي حُورِيبَ حِينَ قَالَ لِي ٱلرَّبُّ: ٱجْمَعْ لِي ٱلشَّعْبَ فَأُسْمِعَهُمْ كَلَامِي، لِكَيْ يَتَعَلَّمُوا أَنْ يَخَافُونِي كُلَّ ٱلْأَيَّامِ ٱلَّتِي هُمْ فِيهَا أَحْيَاءٌ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ، وَيُعَلِّمُوا أَوْلَادَهُمْ. | ١٠ 10 |
That day when you stood in the presence of the Lord your God at Horeb, the Lord told me, “Have the people come to me and to hear what I have to say, so they may learn to have respect for me throughout their lives here on earth, and so they may teach this to their children.”
فَتَقَدَّمْتُمْ وَوَقَفْتُمْ فِي أَسْفَلِ ٱلْجَبَلِ، وَٱلْجَبَلُ يَضْطَرِمُ بِٱلنَّارِ إِلَى كَبِدِ ٱلسَّمَاءِ، بِظَلَامٍ وَسَحَابٍ وَضَبَابٍ. | ١١ 11 |
You gathered and stood at the foot of the mountain. The mountain was on fire, shooting out flames into the sky and producing thick dark clouds.
فَكَلَّمَكُمُ ٱلرَّبُّ مِنْ وَسَطِ ٱلنَّارِ وَأَنْتُمْ سَامِعُونَ صَوْتَ كَلَامٍ، وَلَكِنْ لَمْ تَرَوْا صُورَةً بَلْ صَوْتًا. | ١٢ 12 |
The Lord spoke to you from the fire. You heard the words, but you didn't see the form of anyone speaking—there was just a voice.
وَأَخْبَرَكُمْ بِعَهْدِهِ ٱلَّذِي أَمَرَكُمْ أَنْ تَعْمَلُوا بِهِ، ٱلْكَلِمَاتِ ٱلْعَشَرِ، وَكَتَبَهُ عَلَى لَوْحَيْ حَجَرٍ. | ١٣ 13 |
He explained to you his agreement, the Ten Commandments, which he ordered you to follow. He wrote them down on two tablets of stone.
وَإِيَّايَ أَمَرَ ٱلرَّبُّ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْوَقْتِ أَنْ أُعَلِّمَكُمْ فَرَائِضَ وَأَحْكَامًا لِكَيْ تَعْمَلُوهَا فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلَّتِي أَنْتُمْ عَابِرُونَ إِلَيْهَا لِتَمْتَلِكُوهَا. | ١٤ 14 |
This was the time that the Lord ordered me to teach you the rules and regulations that you are to follow when you arrive in the country you're going to own once you've crossed the Jordan.
«فَٱحْتَفِظُوا جِدًّا لِأَنْفُسِكُمْ. فَإِنَّكُمْ لَمْ تَرَوْا صُورَةً مَّا يَوْمَ كَلَّمَكُمُ ٱلرَّبُّ فِي حُورِيبَ مِنْ وَسَطِ ٱلنَّارِ. | ١٥ 15 |
You didn't see any form when the Lord spoke to you from the fire at Horeb, so be very careful
لِئَلَّا تَفْسُدُوا وَتَعْمَلُوا لِأَنْفُسِكُمْ تِمْثَالًا مَنْحُوتًا، صُورَةَ مِثَالٍ مَّا، شِبْهَ ذَكَرٍ أَوْ أُنْثَى، | ١٦ 16 |
that you don't spoil your relationship with the Lord by making an idol for yourselves in any shape or form, whether it looks like a male or female,
شِبْهَ بَهِيمَةٍ مَّا مِمَّا عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ، شِبْهَ طَيْرٍ مَّا ذِي جَنَاحٍ مِمَّا يَطِيرُ فِي ٱلسَّمَاءِ، | ١٧ 17 |
or any land animal or bird that flies,
شِبْهَ دَبِيبٍ مَّا عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ، شِبْهَ سَمَكٍ مَّا مِمَّا فِي ٱلْمَاءِ مِنْ تَحْتِ ٱلْأَرْضِ. | ١٨ 18 |
or of any animal that crawls on the ground or any fish in the deep sea.
وَلِئَلَّا تَرْفَعَ عَيْنَيْكَ إِلَى ٱلسَّمَاءِ، وَتَنْظُرَ ٱلشَّمْسَ وَٱلْقَمَرَ وَٱلنُّجُومَ، كُلَّ جُنْدِ ٱلسَّمَاءِ ٱلَّتِي قَسَمَهَا ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ لِجَمِيعِ ٱلشُّعُوبِ ٱلَّتِي تَحْتَ كُلِّ ٱلسَّمَاءِ، فَتَغْتَرَّ وَتَسْجُدَ لَهَا وَتَعْبُدَهَا. | ١٩ 19 |
When you look up at the sky and see the sun, moon, and stars—all the heavenly bodies—don't be tempted to bow down to them. Don't worship them like all the other nations on earth in the way that the Lord has allowed.
وَأَنْتُمْ قَدْ أَخَذَكُمُ ٱلرَّبُّ وَأَخْرَجَكُمْ مِنْ كُورِ ٱلْحَدِيدِ مِنْ مِصْرَ، لِكَيْ تَكُونُوا لَهُ شَعْبَ مِيرَاثٍ كَمَا فِي هَذَا ٱلْيَوْمِ. | ٢٠ 20 |
Remember that the Lord took you and led you out of the iron furnace which was Egypt to be his own people, just as you are today.
وَغَضِبَ ٱلرَّبُّ عَلَيَّ بِسَبَبِكُمْ، وَأَقْسَمَ إِنِّي لَا أَعْبُرُ ٱلْأُرْدُنَّ وَلَا أَدْخُلُ ٱلْأَرْضَ ٱلْجَيِّدَةَ ٱلَّتِي ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ يُعْطِيكَ نَصِيبًا. | ٢١ 21 |
But the Lord was angry with me because of you, and he vowed that I wouldn't cross the Jordan to enter the good land that the Lord your God is giving you to own.
فَأَمُوتُ أَنَا فِي هَذِهِ ٱلْأَرْضِ، لَا أَعْبُرُ ٱلْأُرْدُنَّ، وَأَمَّا أَنْتُمْ فَتَعْبُرُونَ وَتَمْتَلِكُونَ تِلْكَ ٱلْأَرْضَ ٱلْجَيِّدَةَ. | ٢٢ 22 |
So I will not be crossing the Jordan, because I have to die here in this land. But you will cross over and occupy that good land.
اِحْتَرِزُوا مِنْ أَنْ تَنْسَوْا عَهْدَ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكُمُ ٱلَّذِي قَطَعَهُ مَعَكُمْ، وَتَصْنَعُوا لِأَنْفُسِكُمْ تِمْثَالًا مَنْحُوتًا، صُورَةَ كُلِّ مَا نَهَاكَ عَنْهُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ. | ٢٣ 23 |
However, be careful not to forget the agreement of the Lord your God that he made with you. Don't make an idol for yourselves in the form of anything, because he has forbidden you to do this.
لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَكَ هُوَ نَارٌ آكِلَةٌ، إِلَهٌ غَيُورٌ. | ٢٤ 24 |
For the Lord your God is a fire that burns everything up. He is an exclusive God.
«إِذَا وَلَدْتُمْ أَوْلَادًا وَأَوْلَادَ أَوْلَادٍ، وَأَطَلْتُمُ ٱلزَّمَانَ فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ، وَفَسَدْتُمْ وَصَنَعْتُمْ تِمْثَالًا مَنْحُوتًا صُورَةَ شَيْءٍ مَّا، وَفَعَلْتُمُ ٱلشَّرَّ فِي عَيْنَيِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكُمْ لِإِغَاظَتِهِ، | ٢٥ 25 |
After you have been living in the country for a long time and have had children and grandchildren, if you then spoil the relationship you have with the Lord and make an idol in any form. The Lord your God sees this as evil makes him angry.
أُشْهِدُ عَلَيْكُمُ ٱلْيَوْمَ ٱلسَّمَاءَ وَٱلْأَرْضَ أَنَّكُمْ تَبِيدُونَ سَرِيعًا عَنِ ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلَّتِي أَنْتُمْ عَابِرُونَ ٱلْأُرْدُنَّ إِلَيْهَا لِتَمْتَلِكُوهَا. لَا تُطِيلُونَ ٱلْأَيَّامَ عَلَيْهَا، بَلْ تَهْلِكُونَ لَا مَحَالَةَ. | ٢٦ 26 |
If you do this, I call on heaven and earth to be witnesses against you today that you will be completely wiped out from the country that you are crossing the Jordan to occupy. You will not live long there—you will be totally destroyed.
وَيُبَدِّدُكُمُ ٱلرَّبُّ فِي ٱلشُّعُوبِ، فَتَبْقَوْنَ عَدَدًا قَلِيلًا بَيْنَ ٱلْأُمَمِ ٱلَّتِي يَسُوقُكُمُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَيْهَا. | ٢٧ 27 |
The Lord will scatter you among the other nations, and not many of you will survive in the countries where the Lord has exiled you.
وَتَصْنَعُونَ هُنَاكَ آلِهَةً صَنْعَةَ أَيْدِي ٱلنَّاسِ مِنْ خَشَبٍ وَحَجَرٍ مِمَّا لَا يُبْصِرُ وَلَا يَسْمَعُ وَلَا يَأْكُلُ وَلَا يَشُمُّ. | ٢٨ 28 |
There you will worship gods of wood and stone made by human beings. These idols can't see or hear or eat or smell.
ثُمَّ إِنْ طَلَبْتَ مِنْ هُنَاكَ ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَكَ تَجِدْهُ إِذَا ٱلْتَمَسْتَهُ بِكُلِّ قَلْبِكَ وَبِكُلِّ نَفْسِكَ. | ٢٩ 29 |
However, if while you're there you decide to come to the Lord your God, you will find him if you come to him whole-heartedly, with complete commitment.
عِنْدَمَا ضُيِّقَ عَلَيْكَ وَأَصَابَتْكَ كُلُّ هَذِهِ ٱلْأُمُورِ فِي آخِرِ ٱلْأَيَّامِ، تَرْجِعُ إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ وَتَسْمَعُ لِقَوْلِهِ، | ٣٠ 30 |
When you are in trouble, after you've experienced all these things, then eventually you will return to the Lord your God and do what he says.
لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَكَ إِلَهٌ رَحِيمٌ، لَا يَتْرُكُكَ وَلَا يُهْلِكُكَ وَلَا يَنْسَى عَهْدَ آبَائِكَ ٱلَّذِي أَقْسَمَ لَهُمْ عَلَيْهِ. | ٣١ 31 |
The Lord your God is a merciful God. He won't abandon you or destroy you or forget the agreement he made with your forefathers, confirmed by a solemn promise.
«فَٱسْأَلْ عَنِ ٱلْأَيَّامِ ٱلْأُولَى ٱلَّتِي كَانَتْ قَبْلَكَ، مِنَ ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلَّذِي خَلَقَ ٱللهُ فِيهِ ٱلْإِنْسَانَ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ، وَمِنْ أَقْصَاءِ ٱلسَّمَاءِ إِلَى أَقْصَائِهَا. هَلْ جَرَى مِثْلُ هَذَا ٱلْأَمْرِ ٱلْعَظِيمِ، أَوْ هَلْ سُمِعَ نَظِيرُهُ؟ | ٣٢ 32 |
Think about it! Examine the whole of history from the beginning of time, long before you existed, when God made human beings, right up until now. Ask this question anywhere, from one end of the earth to the other: Has anything as amazing as this ever happened before; has anyone ever heard anything like this?
هَلْ سَمِعَ شَعْبٌ صَوْتَ ٱللهِ يَتَكَلَّمُ مِنْ وَسَطِ ٱلنَّارِ كَمَا سَمِعْتَ أَنْتَ، وَعَاشَ؟ | ٣٣ 33 |
Has a people ever heard the voice of God speaking out of the fire, like you have, and survived?
أَوْ هَلْ شَرَعَ ٱللهُ أَنْ يَأْتِيَ وَيَأْخُذَ لِنَفْسِهِ شَعْبًا مِنْ وَسَطِ شَعْبٍ، بِتَجَارِبَ وَآيَاتٍ وَعَجَائِبَ وَحَرْبٍ وَيَدٍ شَدِيدَةٍ وَذِرَاعٍ رَفِيعَةٍ وَمَخَاوِفَ عَظِيمَةٍ، مِثْلَ كُلِّ مَا فَعَلَ لَكُمُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكُمْ فِي مِصْرَ أَمَامَ أَعْيُنِكُمْ؟ | ٣٤ 34 |
Has any god tried to take a nation out of another nation and make them his own, using tests and signs and miracles and war—with his great power and incredible strength and terrifying actions—like the Lord your God did for you in Egypt, before your very eyes?
إِنَّكَ قَدْ أُرِيتَ لِتَعْلَمَ أَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ هُوَ ٱلْإِلَهُ. لَيْسَ آخَرَ سِوَاهُ. | ٣٥ 35 |
You were shown all this so you could be certain that the Lord is God and there is no one like him.
مِنَ ٱلسَّمَاءِ أَسْمَعَكَ صَوْتَهُ لِيُنْذِرَكَ، وَعَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ أَرَاكَ نَارَهُ ٱلْعَظِيمَةَ، وَسَمِعْتَ كَلَامَهُ مِنْ وَسَطِ ٱلنَّارِ. | ٣٦ 36 |
He made you hear his voice from heaven so you would obey him. On earth he revealed himself though blazing fire, and you heard him speak to you from the fire.
وَلِأَجْلِ أَنَّهُ أَحَبَّ آبَاءَكَ وَٱخْتَارَ نَسْلَهُمْ مِنْ بَعْدِهِمْ، أَخْرَجَكَ بِحَضْرَتِهِ بِقُوَّتِهِ ٱلْعَظِيمَةِ مِنْ مِصْرَ، | ٣٧ 37 |
Because he loved your forefathers, he chose you, their descendants. He himself led you out of Egypt by his great power,
لِكَيْ يَطْرُدَ مِنْ أَمَامِكَ شُعُوبًا أَكْبَرَ وَأَعْظَمَ مِنْكَ، وَيَأْتِيَ بِكَ وَيُعْطِيَكَ أَرْضَهُمْ نَصِيبًا كَمَا فِي هَذَا ٱلْيَوْمِ. | ٣٨ 38 |
driving out ahead of you nations that were greater and stronger than you, in order to lead you to their land and give it to you as yours to own, just as you do today.
فَٱعْلَمِ ٱلْيَوْمَ وَرَدِّدْ فِي قَلْبِكَ أَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ هُوَ ٱلْإِلَهُ فِي ٱلسَّمَاءِ مِنْ فَوْقُ، وَعَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ مِنْ أَسْفَلُ. لَيْسَ سِوَاهُ. | ٣٩ 39 |
So today be sure about this and never forget: the Lord is the only God in heaven above and on the earth below.
وَٱحْفَظْ فَرَائِضَهُ وَوَصَايَاهُ ٱلَّتِي أَنَا أُوصِيكَ بِهَا ٱلْيَوْمَ لِكَيْ يُحْسَنَ إِلَيْكَ وَإِلَى أَوْلَادِكَ مِنْ بَعْدِكَ، وَلِكَيْ تُطِيلَ أَيَّامَكَ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلَّتِي ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ يُعْطِيكَ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ». | ٤٠ 40 |
Observe his rules and regulations that I'm giving you right now, so that you and your children will do well, and that you may have long lives in the country that the Lord your God is giving you for all time.
حِينَئِذٍ أَفْرَزَ مُوسَى ثَلَاثَ مُدُنٍ فِي عَبْرِ ٱلْأُرْدُنِّ نَحْوَ شُرُوقِ ٱلشَّمْسِ | ٤١ 41 |
Then Moses assigned three sanctuary towns to the east of the Jordan
لِكَيْ يَهْرُبَ إِلَيْهَا ٱلْقَاتِلُ ٱلَّذِي يَقْتُلُ صَاحِبَهُ بِغَيْرِ عِلْمٍ، وَهُوَ غَيْرُ مُبْغِضٍ لَهُ مُنْذُ أَمْسِ وَمَا قَبْلَهُ. يَهْرُبُ إِلَى إِحْدَى تِلْكَ ٱلْمُدُنِ فَيَحْيَا. | ٤٢ 42 |
where a person could run to after accidentally killing someone without deliberate hatred. To save their life they could run to one of these towns:
بَاصِرَ فِي ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ فِي أَرْضِ ٱلسَّهْلِ لِلرَّأُوبَيْنِيِّينَ، وَرَامُوتَ فِي جِلْعَادَ لِلْجَادِيِّينَ، وَجُولَانَ فِي بَاشَانَ لِلْمَنَسِّيِّينَ. | ٤٣ 43 |
Bezer in the desert plain belonging to the tribe of Reuben; Ramoth in Gilead belonging to the tribe of Gad, or Golan in Bashan belonging to the tribe of Manasseh.
وَهَذِهِ هِيَ ٱلشَّرِيعَةُ ٱلَّتِي وَضَعَهَا مُوسَى أَمَامَ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ٤٤ 44 |
This is the law that Moses placed before the Israelites.
هَذِهِ هِيَ ٱلشَّهَادَاتُ وَٱلْفَرَائِضُ وَٱلْأَحْكَامُ ٱلَّتِي كَلَّمَ بِهَا مُوسَى بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ عِنْدَ خُرُوجِهِمْ مِنْ مِصْرَ | ٤٥ 45 |
These are the laws, rules, and regulations Moses gave them after they had come out of Egypt.
فِي عَبْرِ ٱلْأُرْدُنِّ فِي ٱلْجِوَاءِ مُقَابِلَ بَيْتِ فَغُورَ، فِي أَرْضِ سِيحُونَ مَلِكِ ٱلْأَمُورِيِّينَ ٱلَّذِي كَانَ سَاكِنًا فِي حَشْبُونَ، ٱلَّذِي ضَرَبَهُ مُوسَى وَبَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ عِنْدَ خُرُوجِهِمْ مِنْ مِصْرَ | ٤٦ 46 |
This was when they were in the valley to the east of the Jordan near Beth-peor in the country of Sihon king of the Amorites. He had ruled from Heshbon and had been defeated by Moses and the Israelites after they had left Egypt.
وَٱمْتَلَكُوا أَرْضَهُ وَأَرْضَ عُوجٍ مَلِكِ بَاشَانَ، مَلِكَيِ ٱلْأَمُورِيِّينَ، ٱللَّذَيْنِ فِي عَبْرِ ٱلْأُرْدُنِّ نَحْوَ شُرُوقِ ٱلشَّمْسِ. | ٤٧ 47 |
They took over his country and the country of Og king of Bashan. (They were the two kings of the Amorites who previously ruled on the east side of the Jordan.)
مِنْ عَرُوعِيرَ ٱلَّتِي عَلَى حَافَةِ وَادِي أَرْنُونَ إِلَى جَبَلِ سِيئُونَ ٱلَّذِي هُوَ حَرْمُونُ | ٤٨ 48 |
The territory went from the town of Aroer on the edge of the Arnon Valley all the way to Mount Sirion, otherwise known as Mount Hermon,
وَكُلَّ ٱلْعَرَبَةِ فِي عَبْرِ ٱلْأُرْدُنِّ نَحْوَ ٱلشُّرُوقِ إِلَى بَحْرِ ٱلْعَرَبَةِ تَحْتَ سُفُوحِ ٱلْفِسْجَةِ. | ٤٩ 49 |
and included all the Arabah to the east of the Jordan down as far as the Dead Sea beside the slopes of Mount Pisgah.
