وَكَانَ لِسِبْطَيْ رَأُوبَيْنَ وَجَادٍ مَوَاشٍ كَثِيرَةٌ جِدّاً. فَلَمَّا أَقْبَلُوا عَلَى أَرْضِ يَعَزِيرَ وَأَرْضِ جِلْعَادَ وَجَدُوا أَنَّهَا صَالِحَةٌ لِرَعْيِ الْمَوَاشِي. ١ 1
Now the people of Reuben and the people of Gad had a very great multitude of livestock: and when they saw the land of Jazer, and the land of Gilead, that look, the place was a place for livestock;
فَقَالُوا لِمُوسَى وَأَلِعَازَارَ الْكَاهِنِ وَرُؤَسَاءِ الشَّعْبِ: ٢ 2
the people of Gad and the people of Reuben came and spoke to Moses, and to Eleazar the priest, and to the leaders of the congregation, saying,
«إِنَّ أَرَاضِي عَطَارُوتَ وَدِيبُونَ وَيَعَزِيرَ وَنِمْرَةَ وَحَشْبُونَ وَأَلِعَالَةَ وَشَبَامَ وَنَبُو وَبَعُونَ ٣ 3
"Ataroth, and Dibon, and Jazer, and Nimrah, and Heshbon, and Elealeh, and Sibmah, and Nebo, and Beon,
الأَرَاضِي الَّتِي أَخْضَعَهَا الرَّبُّ لِبَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ هِيَ مَرَاعٍ صَالِحَةٌ لِرَعْيِ مَوَاشِي عَبِيدِكَ. ٤ 4
the land which YHWH struck before the congregation of Israel, is a land for livestock; and your servants have livestock."
فَإِنْ حَسُنَ لَدَيْكَ، أَعْطِ هَذِهِ الأَرَاضِي لِعَبِيدِكَ مُلْكاً، وَلا تَدَعْنَا نَعْبُرُ نَهْرَ الأُرْدُنِّ». ٥ 5
They said, "If we have found favor in your sight, let this land be given to your servants for a possession; do not bring us over the Jordan."
فَقَالَ مُوسَى لأَبْنَاءِ سِبْطَيْ جَادٍ وَرَأُوبَيْنَ: «أَيَنْطَلِقُ إِخْوَتُكُمْ لِخَوْضِ الْحَرْبِ وَأَنْتُمْ هُنَا قَاعِدُونَ؟ ٦ 6
Moses said to the people of Gad, and to the people of Reuben, "Shall your brothers go to the war, and shall you sit here?
لِمَاذَا تُضْعِفُونَ قُلُوبَ الإِسْرَائِيلِيِّينَ عَنِ الْعُبُورِ إِلَى الأَرْضِ الَّتِي وَهَبَهَا الرَّبُّ لَهُمْ؟ ٧ 7
Why do you discourage the heart of the children of Israel from going over into the land which YHWH has given them?
إِنَّ هَذَا مَا فَعَلَهُ آبَاؤُكُمْ حِينَ أَرْسَلْتُهُمْ مِنْ قَادَشَ بَرْنِيعَ لِيَتَجَسَّسُوا الأَرْضَ، ٨ 8
Your fathers did so when I sent them from Kadesh Barnea to see the land.
فَبَعْدَ أَنْ بَلَغُوا وَادِي أَشْكُولَ وَتَجَسَّسُوا الأَرْضَ أَضْعَفُوا قُلُوبَ الإِسْرَائِيلِيِّينَ عَنِ الْعُبُورِ إِلَى الأَرْضِ الَّتِي وَهَبَهَا الرَّبُّ لَهُمْ. ٩ 9
For when they went up to the Valley of Eshcol, and saw the land, they discouraged the heart of the children of Israel, that they should not go into the land which YHWH had given them.
فَاحْتَدَمَ فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ غَضَبُ الرَّبِّ وَقَالَ: ١٠ 10
YHWH's anger was kindled in that day, and he swore, saying,
لأَنَّهُمْ لَمْ يُطِيعُونِي مِنْ كُلِّ قُلُوبِهِمْ فَإِنَّ الرِّجَالَ مِنِ ابْنِ عِشْرِينَ سَنَةً فَمَا فَوْقُ مِنَ الَّذِينَ خَرَجُوا مِنْ مِصْرَ لَنْ يَرَوْا الأَرْضَ الَّتِي أَقْسَمْتُ أَنْ أَهَبَهَا لِنَسْلِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَإِسْحَاقَ وَيَعْقُوبَ، ١١ 11
'Surely none of the men who came up out of Egypt, from twenty years old and upward, shall see the land which I swore to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob; because they have not wholly followed me:
مَاعَدَا كَالَبَ بْنَ يَفُنَّةَ الْقِنِزِّيَّ وَيَشُوعَ بْنَ نُونٍ، لأَنَّهُمَا أَطَاعَانِي مِنْ كُلِّ قَلْبَيْهِمَا. ١٢ 12
except Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite, and Joshua the son of Nun; because they have followed YHWH completely.'
وَإِذِ اشْتَدَّ غَضَبُ الرَّبِّ عَلَى بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ أَتَاهَهُمْ فِي الصَّحْرَاءِ أَرْبَعِينَ سَنَةً، حَتَّى فَنِيَ كُلُّ الْجِيلِ الَّذِي ارْتَكَبَ الشَّرَّ فِي عَيْنَيِ الرَّبِّ. ١٣ 13
YHWH's anger was kindled against Israel, and he made them wander back and forth in the wilderness forty years, until all the generation, who had done evil in the sight of YHWH, was consumed.
وَهَا أَنْتُمْ نِتَاجُ تَرْبِيَةِ قَوْمٍ خُطَاةٍ، تَرْتَكِبُونَ وِزْرَ آبَائِكُمْ، لِتَزِيدُوا مِنْ شِدَّةِ غَضَبِهِ عَلَى إِسْرَائِيلَ. ١٤ 14
"Look, you have risen up in your fathers' place, an increase of sinful men, to augment yet the fierce anger of YHWH toward Israel.
لأَنَّكُمْ إِنْ تَخَلَّيْتُمْ عَنْ طَاعَتِهِ، يَعُودُ وَيَتْرُكُهُمْ فِي الصَّحْرَاءِ وَتَكُونُونَ أَنْتُمْ سَبَبَ هَلاكِهِمْ». ١٥ 15
For if you turn away from after him, he will yet again leave them in the wilderness; and you will destroy all this people."
فَاقْتَرَبُوا مِنْهُ وَقَالُوا: «سَنَبْنِي حَظَائِرَ لِمَوَاشِينَا وَمُدُناً لأَطْفَالِنَا وَنِسَائِنَا، ١٦ 16
They came near to him, and said, "We will build sheepfolds here for our livestock, and cities for our little ones:
أَمَّا نَحْنُ فَنَتَسَلَّحُ وَنَنْطَلِقُ مُسْرِعِينَ أَمَامَ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ حَتَّى يَبْلُغُوا أَمَاكِنَهُمْ بَيْنَمَا يَمْكُثُ نِسَاؤُنَا وَأَطْفَالُنَا فِي مُدُنٍ مُحَصَّنَةٍ تَقِيهِمْ هَجْمَاتِ أَهْلِ الأَرْضِ، ١٧ 17
but we ourselves will be ready armed to go before the children of Israel, until we have brought them to their place: and our little ones shall dwell in the fortified cities because of the inhabitants of the land.
وَلا نَرْجِعُ إِلَى بُيُوتِنَا حَتَّى يَمْتَلِكَ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ نَصِيبَهُ مِنَ الْمِيرَاثِ. ١٨ 18
We will not return to our houses, until the children of Israel have inherited every man his inheritance.
وَإِنَّنَا لَا نَرِثُ مَعَهُمْ شَيْئاً فِي غَرْبِيِّ نَهْرِ الأُرْدُنِّ، لأَنَّنَا قَدْ حَصَلْنَا عَلَى نَصِيبِنَا فِي الأَرَاضِي الْوَاقِعَةِ فِي شَرْقِيِّهِ». ١٩ 19
For we will not inherit with them on the other side of the Jordan, and forward; because our inheritance is fallen to us on this side of the Jordan eastward."
فَقَالَ لَهُمْ مُوسَى: «إِنْ وَفَيْتُمْ بِعَهْدِكُمْ فَحَمَلْتُمُ السِّلاحَ لِخَوْضِ الْحَرْبِ أَمَامَ الرَّبِّ، ٢٠ 20
Moses said to them, "If you will do this thing, if you will arm yourselves to go before YHWH to the war,
وَعَبَرَ كُلُّ مُتَسَلِّحٍ مِنْكُمْ نَهْرَ الأُرْدُنِّ لِيُحَارِبَ أَمَامَ الرَّبِّ حَتَّى يَتِمَّ طَرْدُ أَعْدَائِهِ مِنْ أَمَامِهِ، ٢١ 21
and every armed man of you will pass over the Jordan before YHWH, until he has driven out his enemies from before him,
فَتَخْضَعُ الأَرْضُ بَيْنَ يَدَيِ الرَّبِّ، وَبَعْدَهَا تَرْجِعُونَ، عِنْدَئِذٍ تَكُونُونَ أَبْرِيَاءَ عِنْدَ الرَّبِّ وَعِنْدَ شَعْبِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَتُصْبِحُ هَذِهِ الأَرْضُ مُلْكاً لَكُمْ أَمَامَ الرَّبِّ. ٢٢ 22
and the land is subdued before YHWH; then afterward you shall return, and be guiltless towards YHWH, and towards Israel; and this land shall be to you for a possession before YHWH.
وَلَكِنْ إِنْ نَكَثْتُمْ بِتَعَهُّدِكُمْ فَإِنَّكُمْ تُخْطِئُونَ إِلَى الرَّبِّ. وَثِقُوا أَنَّ خَطِيئَتَكُمْ سَتُلاحِقُكُمْ. ٢٣ 23
"But if you will not do so, look, you have sinned against YHWH; and be sure your sin will find you out.
ابْنُوا مُدُناً لِنِسَائِكُمْ وَأَطْفَالِكُمْ، وَحَظَائِرَ لِغَنَمِكُمْ، وَنَفِّذُوا مَا تَعَهَّدْتُمْ بِهِ». ٢٤ 24
Build cities for your little ones, and folds for your sheep; and do that which has proceeded out of your mouth."
فَأَجَابَ أَبْنَاءُ سِبْطَيْ جَادٍ وَرَأُوبَيْنَ مُوسَى: «سَيَفْعَلُ عَبِيدُكَ كَأَمْرِ سَيِّدِهِمْ، ٢٥ 25
The people of Gad and the people of Reuben spoke to Moses, saying, "Your servants will do as my lord commands.
إِذْ يَمْكُثُ أَطْفَالُنَا وَنِسَاؤُنَا وَمَوَاشِينَا وَكُلُّ بَهَائِمِنَا فِي مُدُنِ جِلْعَادَ، ٢٦ 26
Our little ones, our wives, our flocks, and all our livestock, shall be there in the cities of Gilead;
بَيْنَمَا يَعْبُرُ كُلُّ مُنْخَرِطٍ فِي الْجَيْشِ مِنْ عَبِيدِكَ نَهْرَ الأُرْدُنِّ لِلْحَرْبِ أَمَامَ الرَّبِّ كَمَا أَمَرَ سَيِّدُنَا». ٢٧ 27
but your servants will pass over, every man who is armed for war, before YHWH to battle, as my lord says."
فَأَوْصَى بِهِمْ مُوسَى أَلِعَازَارَ الْكَاهِنَ وَيَشُوعَ بْنَ نُونٍ وَرُؤَسَاءَ أَسْبَاطِ إِسْرَائِيلَ ٢٨ 28
So Moses commanded concerning them to Eleazar the priest, and to Joshua the son of Nun, and to the heads of the ancestral houses of the tribes of the children of Israel.
قَائِلاً: «إِنْ عَبَرَ مَعَكُمْ نَهْرَ الأُرْدُنِّ كُلُّ مُتَجَرِّدٍ لِلْحَرْبِ بَيْنَ يَدَيِ الرَّبِّ مِنْ أَبْنَاءِ سِبْطَيْ جَادٍ وَرَأُوبَيْنَ، وَتَمَّ الاسْتِيلاءُ عَلَى الأَرْضِ، تُوَرِّثُونَهُمْ أَرْضَ جِلْعَادَ مُلْكاً. ٢٩ 29
Moses said to them, "If the people of Gad and the people of Reuben will pass with you over the Jordan, every man who is armed to battle before YHWH, and the land is subdued before you; then you are to give them the land of Gilead for a possession.
وَلَكِنْ إِنْ تَقَاعَسُوا عَنِ الْعُبُورِ لِخَوْضِ الْحَرْبِ مَعَكُمْ، فَإِنَّكُمْ تُوَرِّثُونَهُمْ فِي وَسَطِكُمْ فِي أَرْضِ كَنْعَانَ». ٣٠ 30
But if they will not pass over with you armed to battle before YHWH, then you are to bring over their children and their wives and their flocks before you into the land of Canaan, and they are to have possessions among you in the land of Canaan."
فَأَجَابَ أَبْنَاءُ سِبْطَيْ جَادٍ وَرَأُوبَيْنَ: «كُلُّ مَا تَكَلَّمَ الرَّبُّ بِهِ مِنْ نَحْوِ عَبِيدِكَ نَلْتَزِمُ بِهِ، ٣١ 31
The people of Gad and the people of Reuben answered, saying, "As YHWH has said to your servants, so will we do.
فَإِنَّنَا نَعْبُرُ بِكَامِلِ أَسْلِحَتِنَا لِنُحَارِبَ بَيْنَ يَدَيِ الرَّبِّ فِي أَرْضِ كَنْعَانَ، وَلَكِنَّنَا لَا نَرِثُ نَصِيباً فِي غَرْبِيِّ الأُرْدُنِّ». ٣٢ 32
We will pass over armed before YHWH into the land of Canaan, and the possession of our inheritance shall remain with us beyond the Jordan."
فَوَهَبَ مُوسَى أَبْنَاءَ سِبْطَيْ جَادٍ وَرَأُوبَيْنَ وَأَبْنَاءَ نِصْفِ سِبْطِ مَنَسَّى بْنِ يُوسُفَ مَمْلَكَةَ سِيحُونَ مَلِكِ الأَمُورِيِّينَ، وَمَمْلَكَةَ عُوجٍ مَلِكِ بَاشَانَ بِمَا فِيهِمَا مِنْ أَرَاضٍ وَمُدُنٍ وَاقِعَةٍ ضِمْنَ حُدُودِهِمَا. ٣٣ 33
Moses gave to them, even to the people of Gad, and to the people of Reuben, and to the half-tribe of Manasseh the son of Joseph, the kingdom of Sihon king of the Amorites, and the kingdom of Og king of Bashan, the land, according to its cities and borders, even the cities of the surrounding land.
فَرَمَّمَ أَبْنَاءُ سِبْطِ جَادٍ مُدُنَ دِيبُونَ وَعَطَاروُتَ وَعَرُوعِيرَ، ٣٤ 34
The people of Gad built Dibon, and Ataroth, and Aroer,
وَعَطْرُوتَ شُوفَانَ وَيَعَزِيرَ وَيَجْبَهَةَ، ٣٥ 35
and Atrothshophan, and Jazer, and Jogbehah,
وَبَيْتَ نِمْرَةَ وَبَيْتَ هَارَانَ، وَجَعَلُوهَا مُدُناً مُحَصَّنَةً وَبَنَوْا أَيْضاً حَظَائِرَ لِغَنَمِهِمْ. ٣٦ 36
and Beth Nimrah, and Beth Haran: fortified cities, and folds for sheep.
وَبَنَى أَبْنَاءُ رَأُوبَيْنَ مُدُنَ حَشْبُونَ وَأَلِعَالَةَ وَقِرْيَتَايِمَ، ٣٧ 37
The people of Reuben built Heshbon, and Elealeh, and Kiriathaim,
وَنَبُو وَبَعْلَ مَعُونَ اللَّتَيْنِ تَمَّ تَغْيِيرُ اسْمَيْهِمَا، وَسَبْمَةَ وَأَطْلَقُوا أَسْمَاءَ أُخْرَى عَلَى الْمُدُنِ الَّتِي بَنَوْهَا. ٣٨ 38
and Nebo, and Baal Meon, (their names being changed), and Sibmah: and they gave other names to the cities which they built.
وَتَوَجَّهَ أَبْنَاءُ مَاكيِرَ مِنْ سِبْطِ مَنَسَّى نَحْوَ جِلْعَادَ وَاسْتَوْلَوْا عَلَيْهَا، وَطَرَدُوا الأَمُورِيِّينَ مِنْهَا، ٣٩ 39
The descendants of Makir the son of Manasseh went to Gilead, and took it, and dispossessed the Amorites who were in it.
فَوَهَبَ مُوسَى جِلْعَادَ لِنَسْلِ مَاكِيرَ بْنِ مَنَسَّى فَأَقَامُوا فِيهَا. ٤٠ 40
Moses gave Gilead to Makir the son of Manasseh; and he lived in it.
وَاسْتَوْلَى يَائِيرُ مِنْ سِبْطِ مَنَسَّى عَلَى مَزَارِعِ جِلْعَادَ، وَدَعَاهَا حَوُّوثَ يَائِيرَ (وَمَعْنَاهَا قُرَى يَائِيرَ). ٤١ 41
Jair the son of Manasseh went and took its towns, and called them Havvoth Jair.
كَمَا انْطَلَقَ نُوبَحُ وَتَمَلَّكَ قَنَاةَ وَالْقُرَى الْمُحِيطَةَ بِها وَأَطْلَقَ عَلَيْهَا اسْمَهُ «نُوبَحَ». ٤٢ 42
Nobah went and took Kenath, and its villages, and called it Nobah, after his own name.
