< تَثنِيَة 2 >
ثُمَّ تَحَوَّلْنَا وَانْطَلَقْنَا نَحْوَ الصَّحْرَاءِ فِي اتِّجَاهِ الْبَحْرِ الأَحْمَرِ كَمَا أَمَرَنِي الرَّبُّ، وَدُرْنَا حَوْلَ جَبَلِ سِعِيرَ أَيَّاماً كَثِيرَةً. | ١ 1 |
Then we turned, and took our journey into the wilderness by the way to the Red Sea, as the LORD spoke to me; and we encircled Mount Seir many days.
ثُمَّ قَالَ الرَّبُّ لِي: | ٢ 2 |
The LORD spoke to me, saying,
حَسْبُكُمْ دَوَرَانٌ حَوْلَ هَذَا الْجَبَلِ. هَيَّا اتَّجِهُوا نَحْوَ الشِّمَالِ. | ٣ 3 |
"You have encircled this mountain long enough. Turn northward.
وَأَوْصِ الشَّعْبَ: هَا أَنْتُمْ عَابِرُونَ بِتُخُومِ إِخْوَتِكُمْ بَنِي عِيسُو الْمُسْتَوْطِنِينَ فِي سِعِيرَ فَيَعْتَرِيهُمُ الْخَوْفُ مِنْكُمْ | ٤ 4 |
Command the people, saying, 'You are to pass through the border of your brothers the descendants of Esau, who dwell in Seir; and they will be afraid of you: take good heed to yourselves therefore;
فَاحْذَرُوا جِدّاً أَنْ تُهَاجِمُوهُمْ، لأَنَّنِي لَا أُوَرِّثُكُمْ مِنْ أَرْضِهِمْ وَلا وَطْأَةَ قَدَمٍ، لأَنِّي قَدْ أَعْطَيْتُ جَبَلَ سِعِيرَ مِيرَاثاً لِعِيسُو. | ٥ 5 |
do not contend with them; for I will not give you of their land, no, not so much as for the sole of the foot to tread on; because I have given Mount Seir to Esau for a possession.
تَدْفَعُونَ ثَمَنَ مَا تَشْتَرُونَهُ مِنْ طَعَامٍ لِتَأْكُلُوا، وَمَا تَبْتَاعُونَهُ مِنْ مَاءٍ لِتَشْرَبُوا. | ٦ 6 |
You shall purchase food of them for money, that you may eat; and you shall also buy water of them for money, that you may drink.'"
لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ إِلَهَكُمْ بَارَكَ كُلَّ عَمَلِ أَيْدِيكُمْ، وَاعْتَنَى بِكُمْ فِي أَثْنَاءِ رِحْلَتِكُمْ فِي هَذِهِ الصَّحْرَاءِ الشَّاسِعَةِ، وَكَانَ مَعَكُمْ طَوَالَ أَرْبَعِينَ سَنَةً، فَلَمْ يُعْوِزْكُمْ شَيْءٌ | ٧ 7 |
For the LORD your God has blessed you in all the work of your hand; he has known your walking through this great wilderness: these forty years the LORD your God has been with you; you have lacked nothing.
فَاجْتَزْنَا بِإِخْوَتِنَا بَنِي عِيسُو الْمُقِيمِينَ فِي سِعِيرَ، مُتَّجِهِينَ فِي طَرِيقِ وَادِي الْعَرَبَةِ جَنُوباً صَوْبَ إِيلاتَ وَعَصْيُونَ جَابِرَ، ثُمَّ انْثَنَيْنَا وَمَرَرْنَا فِي طَرِيقِ صَحْرَاءِ مُوآبَ. | ٨ 8 |
So we passed by from our brothers the descendants of Esau, who dwell in Seir, from the way of the Arabah from Eilat and from Ezion Geber. We turned and passed by the way of the wilderness of Moab.
فَقَالَ لِي الرَّبُّ: لَا تُعَادِ الْمُوآبِيِّينَ وَلا تُثِرْ عَلَيْهِمْ حَرْباً، لأَنِّي لَا أُعْطِيكَ مِنْ أَرْضِهِمْ مِيرَاثاً، إِذْ وَهَبْتُ مَدِينَةَ عَارَ لِذُرِّيَّةِ لُوطٍ مِلْكاً. | ٩ 9 |
The LORD said to me, "Do not bother Moab, neither contend with them in battle; for I will not give you of his land for a possession; because I have given Ar to the descendants of Lot for a possession."
فَقَدْ سَكَنَ فِيهَا الإِيمِيُّونَ قَبْلاً، وَهُمْ شَعْبٌ كَثِيرٌ وَطُوَالُ الْقَامَةِ كَالْعَنَاقِيِّينَ، | ١٠ 10 |
(The Emim lived there before, a people great, and many, and tall, as the Anakim:
وَهُمْ يُعْتَبَرُونَ رَفَائِيِّينَ كَالْعَنَاقِيِّينَ. غَيْرَ أَنَّ المُوآبِيِّينَ يَدْعُونَهُمُ الإِيمِيِّينَ. | ١١ 11 |
these also are accounted Rephaim, as the Anakim; but the Moabites call them Emim.
كَذَلِكَ اسْتَوْطَنَ الْحُورِيُّونَ أَرْضَ سِعِيرَ مِنْ قَبْلُ، فَطَرَدَهُمْ بَنُو عِيسُو وَأَبَادُوهُمْ وَحَلُّوا مَكَانَهُمْ، تَمَاماً كَمَا فَعَلَ الإِسْرَائِيلِيُّونَ بِالأَرْضِ الَّتِي وَهَبَهَا لَهُمُ الرَّبُّ. | ١٢ 12 |
The Horites also lived in Seir before, but the descendants of Esau succeeded them; and they destroyed them from before them, and lived in their place; as Israel did to the land of his possession, which the LORD gave to them.)
وَالآنَ انْهَضُوا وَاعْبُرُوا وَادِي زَارَدَ. وَهَكَذَا عَبَرْنَا وَادِي زَارَدَ. | ١٣ 13 |
"Now rise up, and cross over the Wadi Zered." So we went over the Wadi Zered.
وَكَانَ عَدَدُ السَّنَوَاتِ الَّتِي قَضَيْنَاهَا فِي مَسِيرِنَا مِنْ قَادَشَ بَرْنِيعَ حَتَّى اجْتَزْنَا وَادِي زَارَدَ ثَمَانِيَ وَثَلاثِينَ سَنَةً، فِيهَا مَاتَ جِيلُ رِجَالِ الْحَرْبِ مِنَ الْمُخَيَّمِ، كَمَا أَقْسَمَ الرَّبُّ لَهُمْ. | ١٤ 14 |
The days in which we came from Kadesh Barnea, until we had come over the Wadi Zered, were thirty-eight years; until all the generation of the men of war were consumed from the midst of the camp, as the LORD swore to them.
وَهَكَذَا عَاقَبَهُمُ الرَّبُّ أَيْضاً حَتَّى أَبَادَهُمْ وَأَفْنَاهُمْ مِنَ الْمُخَيَّمِ. | ١٥ 15 |
Moreover the hand of God was against them, to destroy them from the midst of the camp, until they were consumed.
فَعِنْدَمَا مَاتَ جَمِيعُ الْمُقَاتِلِينَ مِنْ بَيْنِ الشَّعْبِ | ١٦ 16 |
So it happened, when all the men of war were consumed and dead from among the people,
قَالَ الرَّبُّ لِي: | ١٧ 17 |
that the LORD spoke to me, saying,
أَنْتَ عَابِرٌ الْيَوْمَ بِحُدُودِ عَارَ مِنْ أَرْضِ مُوآبَ، | ١٨ 18 |
"You are this day to pass over Ar, the border of Moab:
فَمَتَى اقْتَرَبْتَ مِنْ بَنِي عَمُّونَ، لَا تُعَادِهِمْ وَلا تُهَاجِمْهُمْ، لأَنِّي لَا أَهَبُكَ مِنْ أَرْضِ بَنِي عَمُّونَ مِيرَاثاً، إِذْ وَهَبْتُهَا لِبَنِي لُوطٍ. | ١٩ 19 |
and when you come near over against the people of Ammon, do not bother them, nor contend with them; for I will not give you of the land of the people of Ammon for a possession; because I have given it to the people of Lot for a possession."
وَهِيَ أَيْضاً تُعْتَبَرُ أَرْضَ رَفَائِيِّينَ، إِذْ سَكَنُوا فِيهَا قَبْلاً. أَمَّا الْعَمُّونِيُّونَ فَيَدْعُونَهُمْ زَمْزُمِّيِّينَ. | ٢٠ 20 |
(That also is accounted a land of Rephaim: Rephaim lived in it before; but the Ammonites call them Zamzummim,
وَهُمْ شَعْبٌ كَثِيرٌ طِوَالُ الْقَامَةِ كَالْعَنَاقِيِّينَ، أَبَادَهُمُ الرَّبُّ مِنْ أَمَامِ الْعَمُّونِيِّينَ فَطَرَدُوهُمْ وَأَقَامُوا مَكَانَهُمْ، | ٢١ 21 |
a people great, and many, and tall, as the Anakim; but the LORD destroyed them before them; and they succeeded them, and lived in their place;
تَمَاماً كَمَا فَعَلَ لِذُرِّيَّةِ عِيسُو الْمُسْتَوْطِنِينَ فِي سِعِيرَ. فَقَدْ أَهْلَكَ الْحُورِيِّينَ فِي أَيَّامِهِمْ، فَطَرَدُوهُمْ وَحَلُّوا مَكَانَهُمْ إِلَى هَذَا الْيَوْمِ. | ٢٢ 22 |
as he did for the descendants of Esau, who dwell in Seir, when he destroyed the Horites from before them; and they succeeded them, and lived in their place even to this day:
وَكَذَلِكَ أَبَادَ الْكَفْتُورِيُّونَ الَّذِينَ خَرَجُوا مِنْ كَفْتُورَ، الْعَوِّيِّينَ الَّذِينَ كَانُوا قَاطِنِينَ فِي الْقُرَى الْمُنْتَشِرَةِ حَتَّى غَزَّةَ وَحَلُّوا مَكَانَهُمْ. | ٢٣ 23 |
and the Avvim, who lived in villages as far as Gaza, the Caphtorim, who came forth out of Caphtor, destroyed them, and lived in their place.)
فَقُومُوا وَارْتَحِلُوا وَاعْبُرُوا وَادِي نَهْرِ أَرْنُونَ، وَانْظُرُوا لأَنِّي قَدْ نَصَرْتُكَ عَلَى سِيحُونَ مَلِكِ الأَمُورِيِّينَ وَأَرْضِهِ. فَابْتَدِئْ بِتَمَلُّكِ الأَرْضِ، وَأَثِرْ عَلَيْهِ حَرْباً. | ٢٤ 24 |
"Rise up, take your journey, and pass over the Valley of the Arnon: look, I have given into your hand Sihon the Amorite, king of Heshbon, and his land; begin to possess it, and contend with him in battle.
فَفِي هَذَا الْيَوْمِ بِالذَّاتِ أَجْعَلُ هَيْبَتَكُمْ وَالْخَوْفَ مِنْكُمْ يَطْغَيَانِ عَلَى شُعُوبِ الأَرْضِ. وَكُلُّ الَّذِينَ يَسْمَعُونَ أَخْبَارَكُمْ يَرْتَعِدُونَ وَيَفْزَعُونَ أَمَامَكُمْ. | ٢٥ 25 |
This day will I begin to put the dread of you and the fear of you on the peoples who are under the whole sky, who shall hear the report of you, and shall tremble, and be in anguish because of you."
فَأَرْسَلْتُ رُسُلاً مِنْ صَحْرَاءِ قَدِيمُوتَ إِلَى سِيحُونَ مَلِكِ حَشْبُونَ، أَعْرِضُ عَلَيْهِ سَلاماً قَائِلاً: | ٢٦ 26 |
I sent messengers out of the wilderness of Kedemoth to Sihon king of Heshbon with words of peace, saying,
دَعْنِي أَجْتَازُ بِأَرْضِكَ سَالِكاً الطَّرِيقَ الْعَامَّةَ، لَا أَحِيدُ عَنْهَا يَمِيناً أَوْ شِمَالاً. | ٢٧ 27 |
"Let me pass through your land: I will go along by the highway, I will turn neither to the right hand nor to the left.
وَسَأَدْفَعُ ثَمَنَ مَا تَبِيعُنِي مِنْ طَعَامٍ لآكُلَ، وَمَا تُعْطِينِي مِنْ مَاءٍ لأَشْرَبَ، أَمُرُّ رَاجِلاً فَقَطْ. | ٢٨ 28 |
You shall sell me food for money, that I may eat; and give me water for money, that I may drink: only let me pass through on my feet,
كَمَا فَعَلْتُ مَعَ بَنِي عِيسُو الْمُسْتَوْطِنِينَ فِي سِعِيرَ، وَالْمُوآبِيِّينَ الْمُقِيمِينَ فِي عَارَ. | ٢٩ 29 |
as the people of Esau who dwell in Seir, and the Moabites who dwell in Ar, did to me; until I shall pass over the Jordan into the land which the LORD our God gives us."
لَكِنَّ سِيحُونَ مَلِكَ حَشْبُونَ رَفَضَ أَنْ يَدَعَنَا نَجْتَازُ بِبِلادِهِ، لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ إِلَهَكُمْ قَسَّى رُوحَهُ وَأَغْلَظَ قَلْبَهُ لِكَيْ يَهْزِمَهُ عَلَى أَيْدِيكُمْ كَمَا فَعَلَ الآنَ. | ٣٠ 30 |
But Sihon king of Heshbon would not let us pass by him; for the LORD your God hardened his spirit, and made his heart obstinate, that he might deliver him into your hand, as at this day.
وَقَالَ لِي الرَّبُّ: انْظُرْ، هَا قَدِ ابْتَدَأْتُ أَدْفَعُ أَمَامَكَ سِيحُونَ لِتَسْتَوْلِيَ عَلَى أَرْضِهِ، فَأَسْرِعْ فِي تَمَلُّكِهَا حَتَّى تَتَغَلَّبَ عَلَيْهَا كُلِّهَا. | ٣١ 31 |
The LORD said to me, "Look, I have begun to deliver up Sihon and his land before you: begin to possess, that you may inherit his land."
فَخَرَجَ سِيحُونُ بِكَامِلِ جَيْشِهِ إِلَى يَاهَصَ لِمُحَارَبَتِنَا. | ٣٢ 32 |
Then Sihon came out against us, he and all his people, to battle at Jahaz.
فَأَتَانَا النَّصْرُ عَلَيْهِ مِنْ عِنْدِ الرَّبِّ إِلَهِنَا، فَدَحَرْنَاهُ وَأَبْنَاءَهُ وَسَائِرَ جَيْشِهِ. | ٣٣ 33 |
The LORD our God delivered him up before us; and we struck him, and his sons, and all his people.
وَاسْتَوْلَيْنَا عَلَى جَمِيعِ مُدُنِهِ، وَقَضَيْنَا فِي كُلِّ مَدِينَةٍ عَلَى الرِّجَالِ وَالنِّسَاءِ وَالأَطْفَالِ، فَلَمْ يَنْجُ حَيٌّ مِنْهُمْ. | ٣٤ 34 |
We took all his cities at that time, and utterly destroyed every inhabited city, with the women and the little ones; we left none remaining:
وَلَكِنَّ الْبَهَائِمَ وَالأَسْلابَ الَّتِي نَهَبْنَاهَا مِنَ الْمُدُنِ أَخَذْنَاهَا غَنَائِمَ لأَنْفُسِنَا. | ٣٥ 35 |
only the livestock we took for a prey to ourselves, with the spoil of the cities which we had taken.
وَلَمْ تَمْتَنِعْ عَلَيْنَا قَرْيَةٌ ابْتِدَاءً مِنْ عَرُوعِيرَ الْوَاقِعَةِ عَلَى حَافَةِ وَادِي أَرْنُونَ وَالْمَدِينَةِ الْقَائِمَةِ فِيهِ، إِلَى جِلْعَادَ، إِذْ حَقَّقَ الرَّبُّ إِلَهُنَا لَنَا النَّصْرَ عَلَى جَمِيعِهَا. | ٣٦ 36 |
From Aroer, which is on the edge of the Valley of the Arnon, and the city that is in the valley, even to Gilead, there was not a city too high for us; the LORD our God delivered up all before us:
وَلَكِنَّنَا لَمْ نَقْتَرِبْ مِنْ أَرْضِ الْعَمُّونِيِّينَ، وَلا نَاحِيَةِ وَادِي نَهْرِ يَبُّوقَ، وَلا الْمُدُنِ الْجَبَلِيَّةِ طَاعَةً لأَمْرِ الرَّبِّ إِلَهِنَا. | ٣٧ 37 |
only to the land of the people of Ammon you did not come near; all the side of the river Jabbok, and the cities of the hill country, and wherever the LORD our God forbade us.
