Numeri 21
1 Mfumu ya Akanaani ya ku Aradi, imene inkakhala ku Negevi, itamva kuti Aisraeli akubwera kudzera msewu wopita ku Atarimu, inachita nkhondo ndi Aisraeli nigwira ena mwa iwo.
And whanne Chananei, the kyng of Arad, that dwellide at the south, hadde herd this, that is, that Israel cam bi the weye of aspieris, he fauyt ayens hem; and Chananei was ouercomere and ledde pray of Israel.
2 Ndipo Israeli anachita lonjezo ili kwa Yehova: “Mukapereka anthu awa mʼdzanja lathu ife tidzawonongeratu mizinda yawo.”
And Israel bounde hym sylf bi avow to the Lord, and seide, If thou schalt bitake this puple in myn hond, Y schal do awei `the citees therof.
3 Yehova anamva pempho la Aisraeli ndipo anapereka Akanaaniwo kwa iwo. Anawawononga pamodzi ndi mizinda yawo. Kotero malowo anatchedwa Horima.
And the Lord herde the preieris of Israel, and bitook the Chananey; and Israel killid hym, and distruyede hise citees; and clepide the name of that place Horma, that is, cursyng, `ethir hangyng up.
4 Aisraeli anayenda kuchokera ku phiri la Hori kudzera njira ya ku Nyanja Yofiira kuzungulira dziko la Edomu. Koma anthu anataya mtima mʼnjiramo
`Forsothe thei yeden forth also fro the hil of Hor, bi the weie that ledith to the reed see, that thei schulden cumpasse the lond of Edom; and it bigan to anoye the puple, of the weie and trauel.
5 ndipo anayankhula motsutsana ndi Mulungu ndi Mose, nati, “Chifukwa chiyani munatitulutsa kuchoka mʼdziko la Igupto kuti tidzafere mʼchipululu muno? Kuno kulibe chakudya, kulibe madzi ndipo chakudya cha chabechabechi tatopa nacho.”
And the puple spak ayens the Lord and Moises, and seide, Whi leddist thou vs out of Egipt, that we schulden die in wildirnesse? breed failith, watris ben not; oure soule wlatith now on this `meete moost liyt.
6 Choncho Yehova anatumiza njoka zaululu pakati pawo. Zinaluma anthu ndipo Aisraeli ambiri anafa.
Wherfor the Lord sente `firid serpentis in to the puple; at the woundis of whiche serpentis, and the dethis of ful many men,
7 Anthuwo anabwera kwa Mose ndi kunena kuti, “Tachimwa chifukwa tayankhula motsutsana ndi Yehova komanso inu. Pempherani kwa Yehova kuti atichotsere njokazi.” Tsono Mose anapempherera anthuwo.
thei camen to Moyses, and seiden, We synneden, for we spaken ayens the Lord and thee; preie thou, that he take awey fro vs the serpentis.
8 Yehova anati kwa Mose, “Upange njoka yaululu ndipo uyipachike pa mtengo. Aliyense amene walumidwa akangoyangʼana njokayo adzakhala ndi moyo.”
And Moises preiede for the puple; and the Lord seide to hym, Make thou a serpent of bras, and sette thou it for a signe; he that is smytun and biholdith it, schal lyue.
9 Pamenepo Mose anapanga njoka yamkuwa ndi kuyipachika pa mtengo. Ndipo aliyense wolumidwa akayangʼana njoka yamkuwayo ankakhala ndi moyo.
Therfor Moyses made a serpent of bras, and settide for a signe; and men smytun and biholdynge it, weren heelid.
10 Aisraeli anayendabe nakamanga misasa yawo ku Oboti.
And the sones of Israel yeden forth,
11 Kenaka anasamuka ku Oboti nakamanga misasa yawo ku Iye-Abarimu, mʼchipululu chimene chili kummawa kwa Mowabu, kotulukira dzuwa.
and settiden tentis in Oboth; fro whennus thei yeden forth, and settiden tentis in Neabarym, in the wildirnesse, that biholdith Moab, ayens the eest coost.
12 Kuchoka kumeneko anayendabe nakamanga misasa yawo mʼchigwa cha Zeredi.
And thei moueden fro thennus, and camen to the stronde of Zareth;
13 Anasamukanso kumeneko nakamanga moyandikana ndi Arinoni mʼdera limene lili mʼchipululu chimene chimafika mʼdziko la Aamori. Arinoni ndiwo malire a Mowabu ndi Aamori.
which thei leften, and settiden tentis ayens Arnon, which is in the deseert, and apperith in the coostis of Amorrei. Forsothe Arnon is the terme of Moab, and departith Moabitis and Ammoreis.
14 Nʼchifukwa chake Buku la Nkhondo za Yehova limati, “Mzinda wa Wahebu uli mu Sufa, mu zigwa za Arinoni,
Wherfor it is seid in the book of batels of the Lord, As he dide in the reed see, so he schal do in the strondis of Arnon;
15 ku matsitso a zigwa amene afika mpaka ku Ari nakhudza malire a dziko la Mowabu.”
the harde rochis of the strondis weren bowid, that tho schulen reste in Arnon, and schulden ligge in the coostis of Moabitis.
16 Kuchokera kumeneko anapitirira mpaka ku Beeri, pa chitsime chomwe Yehova anawuza Mose kuti, “Sonkhanitsa anthu pamodzi ndipo ndidzawapatsa madzi.”
Fro that place the pit apperide, of which the Lord spak to Moyses, Gadere thou the puple, and Y schal yyue watir to it.
17 Pamenepo Aisraeli anayimba nyimbo iyi: “Tulutsa madzi, chitsime iwe! Chiyimbireni nyimbo,
Thanne Israel soong this song, The pit stie;
18 chitsime chomwe anakumba mafumu, chomwe anakumba anthu omveka, ndi ndodo zawo zaufumu ndi ndodo zawo zoyendera.” Kenaka anachoka ku chipululu ndi kupita ku Matana.
thei sungen togidere, The pit which the princes diggiden, and the duykis of the multitude maden redi, in the yyuere of the lawe, and in her stauys. And thei yeden forth fro the wildirnesse to Mathana,
19 Kuchoka ku Matana anapita ku Nahalieli, kuchoka ku Nahalieli anapita ku Bamoti,
fro Mathana to Naaliel, fro Naaliel in to Bamoth;
20 ndipo atachoka ku Bamoti anapita ku chigwa cha dziko la Mowabu kudzera njira ya pamwamba pa phiri la Pisiga, moyangʼanana ndi Yesimoni.
Bamoth is a valey in the cuntrey of Moab, in the cop of Phasga, that biholdith ayens the deseert.
21 Aisraeli anatumiza amithenga kwa Sihoni mfumu ya Aamori, kuti,
Forsothe Israel sente messangeris to Seon, kyng of Ammorreis, and seide,
22 “Tiloleni kuti tidutse mʼdziko mwanu. Sitidzapatukira mʼminda mwanu kapena mu mpesa wanu kapena kumwa madzi mʼchitsime chili chonse. Tidzayenda mu msewu waukulu wa mfumu mpaka titadutsa malire a dziko lanu.”
Y biseche that it be leueful to me to passe thorou thi loond; we schulen not bowe in to the feeldis and vyneris; we schulen not drynke watris of pittis; we schulen go in the kyngis weie, til we passen thi termes.
23 Koma Sihoni sanalole kuti Aisraeli adutse mʼdziko mwake. Iye anasonkhanitsa pamodzi ankhondo ake onse kuti akamenyane ndi Aisraeli mʼchipululu. Atafika pa Yahazi anamenyana ndi Aisraeli.
Which nolde graunte that Israel schulde passe thury hise coostis, but rather, whanne the oost was gaderid, he yede out ayens Israel, in to deseert. And he cam in to Yasa, and fauyt ayens Israel;
24 Koma Aisraeli anamupha ndi kulanda dziko lake kuchokera ku Arinoni mpaka ku Yaboki, kulekezera mʼmalire a dziko la Aamoni, chifukwa malire a dziko la Aamoni anali otetezedwa.
of whom he was smytun in the scharpnesse of swerd, and his lond was weldid fro Arnon `til to Jeboth and `the sones of Amon; for the termes of Amonytis weren holdun bi strong help.
25 Ndipo Aisraeli analanda mizinda yonse ya Aamori, nakhalamo kuphatikizapo Hesiboni ndi midzi yake yozungulira.
Therfor Israel took alle `the citees of hym, and dwelliden in the citees of Amorrei, that is, in Esebon, and hise townes.
26 Hesiboni unali mzinda wa Sihoni mfumu ya Aamori, yemwe anamenyana ndi mfumu yakale ya dziko la Mowabu. Lonselo linakhala dziko lake mpaka ku Arinoni.
The citee of Esebon was Seons, kyng of Ammorei, which Seon fauyt ayens the kyng of Moab, and took al the lond that was of his lordschip, `til to Arnon.
27 Nʼchifukwa chake alakatuli amati: “Bwerani ku Hesiboni, mzindawo umangidwenso; mzinda wa Sihoni ukhazikike.
Therfor it is seid in prouerbe, Come ye in to Esebon, be it bildid, and maad the citee of Seon;
28 “Moto unabuka ku Hesiboni, malawi a moto kuchokera mu mzinda wa Sihoni. Unanyeketsa Ari mzinda wa ku Mowabu, nzika za ku malo okwera a Arinoni.
fier yede out of Esebon, flawme yede out of the citee `ethir greet castel of Seon, and deuouryde Ar of Moabitis, and the dwelleris of the `hiye places of Arnon.
29 Tsoka kwa iwe Mowabu! Mwawonongedwa inu anthu a ku Kemosi! Ana ake aamuna wawasandutsa ngati anthu othawathawa ndipo ana ake aakazi ngati akapolo, akapolo a Sihoni, mfumu ya Aamori.
Moab, wo to thee! thou, puple of Chamos, perischidist; it yaf the sones therof in to fliyt, and the douytris in to caitifte to Seon, kyng of Ammoreis;
30 “Koma ife tawagonjetsa; Hesiboni wawonongedwa mʼnjira monse mpaka kufika ku Diboni. Tawaphwasula mpaka ku mzinda wa Nofa, mzinda womwe umafika ku Medeba.
the yok of hem perischide, fro Esebon `til to Dibon; the wery men camen in to Jophe, and `til to Medaba.
31 “Choncho Aisraeli anakhala mʼdziko la Aamori.”
And so Israel dwellide in the lond of Ammorrey.
32 Mose atatumiza azondi ku Yazeri, Aisraeliwo analanda midzi yozungulira ndi kuthamangitsa Aamori omwe ankakhala kumeneko.
And Moises sente men that schulden aspie Jaser, whos `townes thei token, and weldiden the dwelleris.
33 Kenaka anabwerera, nadzera njira ya ku Basani. Choncho Ogi mfumu ya ku Basani ndi gulu lake lonse lankhondo anatuluka kukakumana nawo ndipo anamenyana nawo ku Ederi.
And thei turniden hem silf, and stieden bi the weie of Basan. And Og, the kyng of Basan, with al his puple cam ayens hem, to fiyte in Edray.
34 Yehova anati kwa Mose, “Usachite naye mantha pakuti ndamupereka mʼmanja mwako pamodzi ndi gulu lake lonse lankhondo ndi dziko lake lomwe. Ndipo uchite kwa iye zimene unachita Sihoni mfumu ya Aamori, amene ankalamulira ku Hesiboni.”
And the Lord seide to Moises, Drede thou not hym, for Y haue bitake hym, and al his loond, and puple, in thin hoond; and thou schalt do to hym as thou didist to Seon, kyng of Ammorreis, the dwellere of Esebon.
35 Choncho Aisraeli anapha Ogi pamodzi ndi ana ake aamuna ndi gulu lake lonse la nkhondo. Palibe ndi mmodzi yemwe amene anatsala wamoyo, ndipo analanda dziko lakelo.
Therfor thei smytiden `bothe hym with hise sones and al his puple, `til to deeth; and thei weldiden `the lond of hym.
