< اَلْعَدَد 21 >
وَلَمَّا سَمِعَ ٱلْكَنْعَانِيُّ مَلِكُ عَرَادَ ٱلسَّاكِنُ فِي ٱلْجَنُوبِ أَنَّ إِسْرَائِيلَ جَاءَ فِي طَرِيقِ أَتَارِيمَ، حَارَبَ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَسَبَى مِنْهُمْ سَبْيًا. | ١ 1 |
The Canaanite, the king of Arad, who lived in the South, heard that Israel came by the way of Atharim. He fought against Israel, and took some of them captive.
فَنَذَرَ إِسْرَائِيلُ نَذْرًا لِلرَّبِّ وَقَالَ: «إِنْ دَفَعْتَ هَؤُلَاءِ ٱلْقَوْمَ إِلَى يَدِي أُحَرِّمُ مُدُنَهُمْ». | ٢ 2 |
Israel vowed a vow to the LORD, and said, “If you will indeed deliver this people into my hand, then I will utterly destroy their cities.”
فَسَمِعَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِقَوْلِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَدَفَعَ ٱلْكَنْعَانِيِّينَ، فَحَرَّمُوهُمْ وَمُدُنَهُمْ. فَدُعِيَ ٱسْمُ ٱلْمَكَانِ «حُرْمَةَ». | ٣ 3 |
The LORD listened to the voice of Israel, and delivered up the Canaanites; and they utterly destroyed them and their cities. The name of the place was called Hormah.
وَٱرْتَحَلُوا مِنْ جَبَلِ هُورٍ فِي طَرِيقِ بَحْرِ سُوفٍ لِيَدُورُوا بِأَرْضِ أَدُومَ، فَضَاقَتْ نَفْسُ ٱلشَّعْبِ فِي ٱلطَّرِيقِ. | ٤ 4 |
They travelled from Mount Hor by the way to the Red Sea, to go around the land of Edom. The soul of the people was very discouraged because of the journey.
وَتَكَلَّمَ ٱلشَّعْبُ عَلَى ٱللهِ وَعَلَى مُوسَى قَائِلِينَ: «لِمَاذَا أَصْعَدْتُمَانَا مِنْ مِصْرَ لِنَمُوتَ فِي ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ؟ لِأَنَّهُ لَا خُبْزَ وَلَا مَاءَ، وَقَدْ كَرِهَتْ أَنْفُسُنَا ٱلطَّعَامَ ٱلسَّخِيفَ». | ٥ 5 |
The people spoke against God and against Moses: “Why have you brought us up out of Egypt to die in the wilderness? For there is no bread, there is no water, and our soul loathes this disgusting food!”
فَأَرْسَلَ ٱلرَّبُّ عَلَى ٱلشَّعْبِ ٱلْحَيَّاتِ ٱلْمُحْرِقَةَ، فَلَدَغَتِ ٱلشَّعْبَ، فَمَاتَ قَوْمٌ كَثِيرُونَ مِنْ إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ٦ 6 |
The LORD sent venomous snakes amongst the people, and they bit the people. Many people of Israel died.
فَأَتَى ٱلشَّعْبُ إِلَى مُوسَى وَقَالُوا: «قَدْ أَخْطَأْنَا إِذْ تَكَلَّمْنَا عَلَى ٱلرَّبِّ وَعَلَيْكَ، فَصَلِّ إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ لِيَرْفَعَ عَنَّا ٱلْحَيَّاتِ». فَصَلَّى مُوسَى لِأَجْلِ ٱلشَّعْبِ. | ٧ 7 |
The people came to Moses, and said, “We have sinned, because we have spoken against the LORD and against you. Pray to the LORD, that he take away the serpents from us.” Moses prayed for the people.
فَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: «ٱصْنَعْ لَكَ حَيَّةً مُحْرِقَةً وَضَعْهَا عَلَى رَايَةٍ، فَكُلُّ مَنْ لُدِغَ وَنَظَرَ إِلَيْهَا يَحْيَا». | ٨ 8 |
The LORD said to Moses, “Make a venomous snake, and set it on a pole. It shall happen that everyone who is bitten, when he sees it, shall live.”
فَصَنَعَ مُوسَى حَيَّةً مِنْ نُحَاسٍ وَوَضَعَهَا عَلَى ٱلرَّايَةِ، فَكَانَ مَتَى لَدَغَتْ حَيَّةٌ إِنْسَانًا وَنَظَرَ إِلَى حَيَّةِ ٱلنُّحَاسِ يَحْيَا. | ٩ 9 |
Moses made a serpent of bronze, and set it on the pole. If a serpent had bitten any man, when he looked at the serpent of bronze, he lived.
وَٱرْتَحَلَ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ وَنَزَلُوا فِي أُوبُوتَ. | ١٠ 10 |
The children of Israel travelled, and encamped in Oboth.
وَٱرْتَحَلُوا مِنْ أُوبُوتَ وَنَزَلُوا فِي عَيِّي عَبَارِيمَ فِي ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ، ٱلَّتِي قُبَالَةَ مُوآبَ إِلَى شُرُوقِ ٱلشَّمْسِ. | ١١ 11 |
They travelled from Oboth, and encamped at Iyeabarim, in the wilderness which is before Moab, towards the sunrise.
مِنْ هُنَاكَ ٱرْتَحَلُوا وَنَزَلُوا فِي وَادِي زَارَدَ. | ١٢ 12 |
From there they travelled, and encamped in the valley of Zered.
مِنْ هُنَاكَ ٱرْتَحَلُوا وَنَزَلُوا فِي عَبْرِ أَرْنُونَ ٱلَّذِي فِي ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ، خَارِجًا عَنْ تُخُمِ ٱلْأَمُورِيِّينَ. لِأَنَّ أَرْنُونَ هُوَ تُخْمُ مُوآبَ، بَيْنَ مُوآبَ وَٱلْأَمُورِيِّينَ. | ١٣ 13 |
From there they travelled, and encamped on the other side of the Arnon, which is in the wilderness that comes out of the border of the Amorites; for the Arnon is the border of Moab, between Moab and the Amorites.
لِذَلِكَ يُقَالُ فِي كِتَابِ «حُرُوبِ ٱلرَّبِّ»: «وَاهِبٌ فِي سُوفَةَ وَأَوْدِيَةِ أَرْنُونَ | ١٤ 14 |
Therefore it is said in The Book of the Wars of the LORD, “Vaheb in Suphah, the valleys of the Arnon,
وَمَصَبِّ ٱلْأَوْدِيَةِ ٱلَّذِي مَالَ إِلَى مَسْكَنِ عَارَ، وَٱسْتَنَدَ إِلَى تُخُمِ مُوآبَ». | ١٥ 15 |
the slope of the valleys that incline towards the dwelling of Ar, leans on the border of Moab.”
وَمِنْ هُنَاكَ إِلَى بِئْرٍ. وَهِيَ ٱلْبِئْرُ حَيْثُ قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: «ٱجْمَعِ ٱلشَّعْبَ فَأُعْطِيَهُمْ مَاءً». | ١٦ 16 |
From there they travelled to Beer; that is the well of which the LORD said to Moses, “Gather the people together, and I will give them water.”
حِينَئِذٍ تَرَنَّمَ إِسْرَائِيلُ بِهَذَا ٱلنَّشِيدِ: «اِصْعَدِي أَيَّتُهَا ٱلْبِئْرُ! أَجِيبُوا لَهَا. | ١٧ 17 |
Then Israel sang this song: “Spring up, well! Sing to it,
بِئْرٌ حَفَرَهَا رُؤَسَاءُ، حَفَرَهَا شُرَفَاءُ ٱلشَّعْبِ، بِصَوْلَجَانٍ، بِعِصِيِّهِمْ». وَمِنَ ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ إِلَى مَتَّانَةَ، | ١٨ 18 |
the well, which the princes dug, which the nobles of the people dug, with the sceptre, and with their poles.” From the wilderness they travelled to Mattanah;
وَمِنْ مَتَّانَةَ إِلَى نَحْلِيئِيلَ، وَمِنْ نَحْلِيئِيلَ إِلَى بَامُوتَ، | ١٩ 19 |
and from Mattanah to Nahaliel; and from Nahaliel to Bamoth;
وَمِنْ بَامُوتَ إِلَى ٱلْجِوَاءِ ٱلَّتِي فِي صَحْرَاءِ مُوآبَ عِنْدَ رَأْسِ ٱلْفِسْجَةِ ٱلَّتِي تُشْرِفُ عَلَى وَجْهِ ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ. | ٢٠ 20 |
and from Bamoth to the valley that is in the field of Moab, to the top of Pisgah, which looks down on the desert.
وَأَرْسَلَ إِسْرَائِيلُ رُسُلًا إِلَى سِيحُونَ مَلِكِ ٱلْأَمُورِيِّينَ قَائِلًا: | ٢١ 21 |
Israel sent messengers to Sihon king of the Amorites, saying,
«دَعْنِي أَمُرَّ فِي أَرْضِكَ. لَا نَمِيلُ إِلَى حَقْلٍ وَلَا إِلَى كَرْمٍ وَلَا نَشْرَبُ مَاءَ بِئْرٍ. فِي طَرِيقِ ٱلْمَلِكِ نَمْشِي حَتَّى نَتَجَاوَزَ تُخُومَكَ». | ٢٢ 22 |
“Let me pass through your land. We will not turn away into field or vineyard. We will not drink of the water of the wells. We will go by the king’s highway, until we have passed your border.”
فَلَمْ يَسْمَحْ سِيحُونُ لِإِسْرَائِيلَ بِٱلْمُرُورِ فِي تُخُومِهِ، بَلْ جَمَعَ سِيحُونُ جَمِيعَ قَوْمِهِ وَخَرَجَ لِلِقَاءِ إِسْرَائِيلَ إِلَى ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ، فَأَتَى إِلَى يَاهَصَ وَحَارَبَ إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ٢٣ 23 |
Sihon would not allow Israel to pass through his border, but Sihon gathered all his people together, and went out against Israel into the wilderness, and came to Jahaz. He fought against Israel.
فَضَرَبَهُ إِسْرَائِيلُ بِحَدِّ ٱلسَّيْفِ وَمَلَكَ أَرْضَهُ مِنْ أَرْنُونَ إِلَى يَبُّوقَ إِلَى بَنِي عَمُّونَ. لِأَنَّ تُخُمَ بَنِي عَمُّونَ كَانَ قَوِيًّا. | ٢٤ 24 |
Israel struck him with the edge of the sword, and possessed his land from the Arnon to the Jabbok, even to the children of Ammon; for the border of the children of Ammon was fortified.
فَأَخَذَ إِسْرَائِيلُ كُلَّ هَذِهِ ٱلْمُدُنِ، وَأَقَامَ إِسْرَائِيلُ فِي جَمِيعِ مُدُنِ ٱلْأَمُورِيِّينَ فِي حَشْبُونَ وَفِي كُلِّ قُرَاهَا. | ٢٥ 25 |
Israel took all these cities. Israel lived in all the cities of the Amorites, in Heshbon, and in all its villages.
لِأَنَّ حَشْبُونَ كَانَتْ مَدِينَةَ سِيحُونَ مَلِكِ ٱلْأَمُورِيِّينَ، وَكَانَ قَدْ حَارَبَ مَلِكَ مُوآبَ ٱلْأَوَّلَ وَأَخَذَ كُلَّ أَرْضِهِ مِنْ يَدِهِ حَتَّى أَرْنُونَ. | ٢٦ 26 |
For Heshbon was the city of Sihon the king of the Amorites, who had fought against the former king of Moab, and taken all his land out of his hand, even to the Arnon.
لِذَلِكَ يَقُولُ أَصْحَابُ ٱلْأَمْثَالِ: «اِيتُوا إِلَى حَشْبُونَ فَتُبْنَى، وَتُصْلَحَ مَدِينَةُ سِيحُونَ. | ٢٧ 27 |
Therefore those who speak in proverbs say, “Come to Heshbon. Let the city of Sihon be built and established;
لِأَنَّ نَارًا خَرَجَتْ مِنْ حَشْبُونَ، لَهِيبًا مِنْ قَرْيَةِ سِيحُونَ. أَكَلَتْ عَارَ مُوآبَ. أَهْلَ مُرْتَفَعَاتِ أَرْنُونَ. | ٢٨ 28 |
for a fire has gone out of Heshbon, a flame from the city of Sihon. It has devoured Ar of Moab, The lords of the high places of the Arnon.
وَيْلٌ لَكَ يَا مُوآبُ. هَلَكْتِ يَا أُمَّةَ كَمُوشَ. قَدْ صَيَّرَ بَنِيهِ هَارِبِينَ وَبَنَاتِهِ فِي ٱلسَّبْيِ لِمَلِكِ ٱلْأَمُورِيِّينَ سِيحُونَ. | ٢٩ 29 |
Woe to you, Moab! You are undone, people of Chemosh! He has given his sons as fugitives, and his daughters into captivity, to Sihon king of the Amorites.
لَكِنْ قَدْ رَمَيْنَاهُمْ. هَلَكَتْ حَشْبُونُ إِلَى دِيبُونَ. وَأَخْرَبْنَا إِلَى نُوفَحَ ٱلَّتِي إِلَى مِيدَبَا». | ٣٠ 30 |
We have shot at them. Heshbon has perished even to Dibon. We have laid waste even to Nophah, Which reaches to Medeba.”
فَأَقَامَ إِسْرَائِيلُ فِي أَرْضِ ٱلْأَمُورِيِّينَ. | ٣١ 31 |
Thus Israel lived in the land of the Amorites.
وَأَرْسَلَ مُوسَى لِيَتَجَسَّسَ يَعْزِيرَ، فَأَخَذُوا قُرَاهَا وَطَرَدُوا ٱلْأَمُورِيِّينَ ٱلَّذِينَ هُنَاكَ. | ٣٢ 32 |
Moses sent to spy out Jazer. They took its villages, and drove out the Amorites who were there.
ثُمَّ تَحَوَّلُوا وَصَعِدُوا فِي طَرِيقِ بَاشَانَ. فَخَرَجَ عُوجُ مَلِكُ بَاشَانَ لِلِقَائِهِمْ هُوَ وَجَمِيعُ قَوْمِهِ إِلَى ٱلْحَرْبِ فِي إِذْرَعِي. | ٣٣ 33 |
They turned and went up by the way of Bashan. Og the king of Bashan went out against them, he and all his people, to battle at Edrei.
فَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: «لَا تَخَفْ مِنْهُ لِأَنِّي قَدْ دَفَعْتُهُ إِلَى يَدِكَ مَعَ جَمِيعِ قَوْمِهِ وَأَرْضِهِ، فَتَفْعَلُ بِهِ كَمَا فَعَلْتَ بِسِيحُونَ مَلِكِ ٱلْأَمُورِيِّينَ ٱلسَّاكِنِ فِي حَشْبُونَ». | ٣٤ 34 |
The LORD said to Moses, “Don’t fear him, for I have delivered him into your hand, with all his people, and his land. You shall do to him as you did to Sihon king of the Amorites, who lived at Heshbon.”
فَضَرَبُوهُ وَبَنِيهِ وَجَمِيعَ قَوْمِهِ حَتَّى لَمْ يَبْقَ لَهُ شَارِدٌ، وَمَلَكُوا أَرْضَهُ. | ٣٥ 35 |
So they struck him, with his sons and all his people, until there were no survivors; and they possessed his land.
