Deuteronomy 2
1 To pacoengah Angraeng mah kai khaeah thuih ih lok baktih toengah, aicae loe amlaem o moe, tuipui kathim bang caehhaih loklam hoiah, praezaek ah a caeh o; aicae loe Seir mae taengah saning kasawk ah amhet o boeh.
Then we turned, and took our journey into the wilderness by the way to the Sea of Suf, as the LORD spoke to me; and we encircled Mount Seir many days.
2 To naah Angraeng mah kai khaeah,
The LORD spoke to me, saying,
3 Nangcae loe hae mae taengah saning kasawk ah nam het o boeh; vaihi angqoi oh loe, aluek bangah caeh oh.
“You have encircled this mountain long enough. Turn northward.
4 Kaminawk khaeah, Seir mae ah, nangmacae ih nawkamya ah kaom, Esau ih caanawk ohhaih ahmuen hoiah na caeh o tih boeh; nihcae mah nangcae to zii o tih; toe acoehaih hoiah om oh;
Command the people, saying, ‘You are to pass through the border of your brothers, the children of Esau, who dwell in Seir; and they will be afraid of you. Therefore be careful.
5 nihcae to misa angthawk o thuih hmah; nihcae ih prae to nangcae han kang paek mak ai; na khok cawhhaih kakhawt ahmuen mataeng doeh kang paek o mak ai; Seir mae loe qawk ah toep hanah Esau khaeah ka paek boeh.
Don’t contend with them; for I will not give you any 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.
6 Caak hanah buh to nihcae khaeah phoisa hoiah ni na qan o ueloe, na caa o tih, tui doeh na qanh o pacoengah ni, na nae o tih, tiah thui paeh, tiah ang naa.
You shall purchase food from them for money, that you may eat. You shall also buy water from them for money, that you may drink.’”
7 Na Angraeng Sithaw mah na ban toksakhaih nuiah tahamhoihaih ang paek o boeh; kakawk parai hae praezaek ah nam het o, tito anih mah panoek; saning quipalito thung nangcae khaeah na Angraeng Sithaw to oh pongah, angaihaih tidoeh na tawn o ai.
For the LORD your God has blessed you in all the work of your hands. He has known your walking through this great wilderness. These forty years, the LORD your God has been with you. You have lacked nothing.
8 To pongah Seir mae ah kaom, aimacae nawkamya ah kaom Esau ih caanawk ohhaih ahmuen to a phak o, Elath hoi Ezion-Geber vangpui hoiah azawn ah caehhaih loklam ah a caeh o pacoengah, Moab praezaek caehhaih loklam hoiah a caeh o poe.
So we passed by from our brothers, the children of Esau, who dwell in Seir, from the way of the Arabah from Elath and from Ezion Geber. We turned and passed by the way of the wilderness of Moab.
9 To pacoengah Angraeng mah kai khaeah, Moab kaminawk to tavet o hmah; misatuk hanah palungphui o thui hmah; qawktoep hanah nihcae ih prae to kang paek o ai; Ar prae toep hanah, Lot khaeah ka paek boeh, tiah ang naa.
The LORD said to me, “Don’t bother Moab, neither contend with them in battle; for I will not give you any of his land for a possession, because I have given Ar to the children of Lot for a possession.”
10 Canghnii ah Anak kaminawk baktiah kalen, kapop parai Emim kaminawk, to ahmuen ah khosak o;
(The Emim lived there before, a great and numerous people, and tall as the Anakim.
11 nihcae loe Anak kaminawk baktiah, len o parai; Moab kaminawk mah loe nihcae to Emim, tiah kawk o.
These also are considered to be Rephaim, as the Anakim; but the Moabites call them Emim.
12 Canghnii ah Horim kaminawk doeh Seir mae ah oh o toeng; toe Angraeng mah paek ih prae to qawk ah toep hanah, Israel kaminawk mah sak o ih baktih toengah, Esau ih caanawk mah doeh to kaminawk to haek o moe, nihcae ohhaih ahmuen ah khosak o.
The Horites also lived in Seir in the past, but the children of Esau succeeded them. 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.)
13 Angraeng mah, Vaihi angthawk oh loe, Zered vacong ah caeh oh, tiah thuih. To pongah aicae loe Zered vacong hoiah a caeh o.
“Now rise up and cross over the brook Zered.” We went over the brook Zered.
14 Kadesh-Barnea ahmuen hoiah a tacawt o moe, Zered vacong phak karoek to, saning qui thum, tazetto akra. Angraeng mah nihcae khaeah lokkam ih baktih toengah, canghnii hoiah misatuh kaminawk loe, kaminawk ataihaih thung hoiah anghmat o boih.
The days in which we came from Kadesh Barnea until we had come over the brook Zered were thirty-eight years, until all the generation of the men of war were consumed from the middle of the camp, as the LORD swore to them.
15 To kaminawk anghmaa boih ai karoek to, kaminawk salak hoiah nihcae to tamit boih hanah, Angraeng mah nihcae to ban phok thuih.
Moreover the LORD’s hand was against them, to destroy them from the middle of the camp, until they were consumed.
16 Kaminawk thung hoiah misatuh kaminawk to paduek moe, tamit boih pacoengah,
So, when all the men of war were consumed and dead from amongst the people,
17 Angraeng mah kai khaeah,
the LORD spoke to me, saying,
18 vaihniah Moab prae thung ih Ar ahmuen hoiah caeh oh,
“You are to pass over Ar, the border of Moab, today.
19 Ammon kaminawk khaeah na phak o naah, nihcae to pahrue o hmah, raihaih doeh paek o hmah; Ammon kaminawk ih prae to nangcae han kang paek mak ai; to prae loe qawk ah toep o hanah Lot ih caanawk hanah ka paek boeh, tiah ang naa.
When you come near the border of the children of Ammon, don’t bother them, nor contend with them; for I will not give you any of the land of the children of Ammon for a possession, because I have given it to the children of Lot for a possession.”
20 To prae loe canghnii hoi haeah kaom, kalen parai kaminawk ih prae ah oh; toe Ammon kaminawk mah nihcae to Zamzummims, tiah kawk o.
(That also is considered a land of Rephaim. Rephaim lived there in the past, but the Ammonites call them Zamzummim,
21 To kaminawk loe Anak kaminawk baktiah, len o parai, sang o moe, pop o parai; toe Angraeng mah nihcae to Ammon kaminawk hma ah anghmatsak boih; to pongah nihcae ohhaih ahmuen ah Esau caanawk khosak o.
a great people, many, and tall, as the Anakim; but the LORD destroyed them from before Israel, and they succeeded them, and lived in their place,
22 Nihcae Seir ah oh o naah, Angraeng mah Esau ih caanawk hanah to tiah sak pae; nihcae hmaa ah Horim kaminawk to tamit pae boih; nihcae to haek boih pacoengah, nihcae ohhaih ahmuen to Esau ih caanawk mah vaihni ni khoek to khosak o haih.
as he did for the children 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.
23 To baktih toengah, Hazerim hoi Azzah avang khoek to kaom, Avim kaminawk loe, Kaphtor vangpui hoiah tacawt o moe, Kaphtor kaminawk tamit boih pacoengah, nihcae ohhaih ahmuen ah khosak o.
Then the Avvim, who lived in villages as far as Gaza: the Caphtorim, who came out of Caphtor, destroyed them and lived in their place.)
24 Vaihi angthawk oh loe, Armon vapui hoiah caeh o poe ah; khenah, Amor acaeng, Heshbon siangpahrang Sihon hoi a prae loe na ban ah kang paek boeh; to pongah to ahmuen to toep oh loe, to siangpahrang to tuh oh.
“Rise up, take your journey, and pass over the valley of the Arnon. Behold, 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.
25 Vaihniah van tlim ih kaom prae kaminawk boih mah, nangcae to zit moe, ka tasoehsak han; nihcae mah nangcae kawng thaih o naah, mawn o ueloe, paroeai tasoeh o tih, tiah ang naa.
Today I will 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.”
26 Kedemoth praezaek hoi Heshbon siangpahrang Sihon khaeah, laicaeh ka patoeh moe, angdaehhaih lok ka thuih pacoengah,
I sent messengers out of the wilderness of Kedemoth to Sihon king of Heshbon with words of peace, saying,
27 na prae thung hoiah na caehsak raeh, loklam ah ni ka caeh o poe han; banqoi bantang kang qoi o mak ai.
“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.
28 Buh hoi tui to kai khaeah na zaw ah, phoisa hoiah ka qanh o pacoengah ni ka caak o moe, ka naek o han; khok hoiah ni ka caeh o han;
You shall sell me food for money, that I may eat; and give me water for money, that I may drink. Just let me pass through on my feet,
29 Angraeng mah paek ih prae to ka phak o thai hanah, Jordan vapui kang kaat o ai karoek to, Seir ah kaom kaminawk, Esau ih caanawk, Ar ah kaom kaminawk hoi Moab kaminawk mah ang caeh o sak baktih toengah, na caehsak raeh, tiah ka naa.
as the children of Esau who dwell in Seir, and the Moabites who dwell in Ar, did to me, until I pass over the Jordan into the land which the LORD our God gives us.”
30 Toe Heshbon siangpahrang Sihon mah caehsak han koeh ai; vaihniah amtueng baktih toengah, nangcae ih Angraeng Sithaw mah Sihon siangpahrang to nangcae ban ah paek han koeh pongah, a poekhaih palungthin to amtaksak moe, palung thahsak.
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 it is today.
31 Angraeng mah kai khaeah, Khenah, Sihon hoi a prae to nangcae ban ah kang paek amtong boeh; to prae to toep hanah, la amtong o lai ah, tiah ang naa.
The LORD said to me, “Behold, I have begun to deliver up Sihon and his land before you. Begin to possess, that you may inherit his land.”
32 Sihon mah aicae tuk hanah, angmah ih misatuh kaminawk boih hoi nawnto, Jahaz vangpui ah angzoh o.
Then Sihon came out against us, he and all his people, to battle at Jahaz.
33 Aicae Angraeng Sithaw mah anih to aicae ban ah paek pongah, anih to a hum o, a capanawk hoi a misatuh kaminawk doeh a hum pae o boih.
The LORD our God delivered him up before us; and we struck him, his sons, and all his people.
34 To naah anih ih vangpuinawk to a lak pae o, nongpa, nongpata, nawktanawk hoi a praenawk to maeto doeh anghmat ai ah a paro pae o boih;
We took all his cities at that time, and utterly destroyed every inhabited city, with the women and the little ones. We left no one remaining.
35 toe maitawnawk hoi vangpui thung ih hmuenmaenawk khue ni aimacae hanah a lak o.
Only the livestock we took for plunder for ourselves, with the plunder of the cities which we had taken.
36 Arnon vapui taengah kaom Aroer vangpui, vapui taengah kaom vangpuinawk hoi Gilead vangpui khoek to, a pazawk o thai ai ih vangpui maeto doeh om ai; aicae Angraeng Sithaw mah hmuennawk to aicae ban ah paek boih boeh;
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.
37 toe aicae Angraeng Sithaw mah thuih ih lok baktih toengah, Ammon kaminawk ih prae, Jabbok vapui taengah kaom prae loe tetta doeh a la pae o ai.
Only to the land of the children of Ammon you didn’t come near: all the banks of the river Jabbok, and the cities of the hill country, and wherever the LORD our God forbade us.
