< Deuteronomy 2 >

1 Then we turned back and headed for the wilderness by way of the Red Sea, as the LORD had instructed me, and for many days we wandered around Mount Seir.
A LAILA huli ae la kakou, a hele aku la i ka waonahele ma ke ala o ke Kaiula, e like me ka Iehova i kauoha mai ai ia'u; a hoopuni ae la kakou i ka mauna o Seira i na la he nui.
2 At this time the LORD said to me,
Olelo mai la o Iehova ia'u, i mai la,
3 “You have been wandering around this hill country long enough; turn to the north
Ua loihi ko oukou hoopuni ana i keia mauna: e huli ae oukou ma ke kukuluakau.
4 and command the people: ‘You will pass through the territory of your brothers, the descendants of Esau, who live in Seir. They will be afraid of you, so you must be very careful.
A e kauoha aku oe i na kanaka, penei, E hele ana oukou ma ka mokuna o ko oukou poe hoahanau, o na mamo a Esau e noho ana ma Seira; a e makau mai auanei lakou ia oukou: nolaila e malama nui oukou ia oukou iho:
5 Do not provoke them, for I will not give you any of their land, not even a footprint, because I have given Mount Seir to Esau as his possession.
Mai hakaka oukou me lakou; no ka mea, aole au e haawi aku i kekahi o ko lakou aina no oukou, aole i kekahi kapuwai; no ka mea, ua haawi aku au i ka mauna o Seira i wahi e noho ai no Esau.
6 You are to pay them in silver for the food you eat and the water you drink.’”
E kuai oukou i ka lakou ai i ke kala, i ai ai oukou; a e kuai hoi oukou i ko lakou wai i ke kala, i inu ai oukou.
7 Indeed, the LORD your God has blessed you in all the work of your hands. He has watched over your journey through this vast wilderness. The LORD your God has been with you these forty years, and you have lacked nothing.
No ka mea, ua hoopomaikai mai o Iehova kou Akua ia oe ma na hana a pau a kou lima; ua ike no ia i kou hele ana ma keia waonahele nui; me oe no o Iehova kou Akua i neia mau makahiki he kanaha; aole oe i nele i kekahi mea.
8 So we passed by our brothers, the descendants of Esau, who live in Seir. We turned away from the Arabah road, which comes up from Elath and Ezion-geber, and traveled along the road of the Wilderness of Moab.
A ia kakou i maalo ae mai ko kakou poe hoahanau aku, na mamo a Esau, e noho ana ma Seira, ma ke ala o ka papu mai Elata aku, a mai Ezionagabera, huli ae kakou a hele i ke ala ma ka waonahele o Moaba.
9 Then the LORD said to me, “Do not harass the Moabites or provoke them to war, for I will not give you any of their land, because I have given Ar to the descendants of Lot as their possession.”
Olelo mai la o Iehova ia'u, Mai hana ino aku i ko Moaba, aole e ku e ia lakou i ke kaua ana; aole au e haawi i ko lakou aina i wahi e noho ai no oukou; no ka mea, ua haawi aku au ia Ara i wahi e noho ai no na mamo a Lota.
10 (The Emites used to live there, a people great and many, as tall as the Anakites.
I ka manawa mamua i noho ai ka poe Emima malaila, he poe nunui a lehulehu, he poe loihi e like me ka poe Anakima;
11 Like the Anakites, they were also regarded as Rephaim, though the Moabites called them Emites.
Ua manaoia lakou, he poe kanaka nunui e like me ka poe Anakima; aka, ua kapaia lakou e ko Moaba, he poe Emima.
12 The Horites used to live in Seir, but the descendants of Esau drove them out. They destroyed the Horites from before them and settled in their place, just as Israel did in the land that the LORD gave them as their possession.)
I ka manawa mamua i noho ai ka poe Horima ma Seira: aka, na na mamo a Esau i hookuke aku lakou, a luku i ua poe la imua o lakou, a noho iho la ma ko lakou la wahi; e like me ka Iseraela i hana aku ai i ka aina o ko lakou wahi i noho ai a Iehova i haawi mai ai no lakou.
13 “Now arise and cross over the Brook of Zered.” So we crossed over the Brook of Zered.
Ano hoi, e ku iluna, a e hele aku ma kela aoao o ke kahawai o Zareda: a hele aku kakou ma kela aoao o ke kahawai o Zareda.
14 The time we spent traveling from Kadesh-barnea until we crossed over the Brook of Zered was thirty-eight years, until that entire generation of fighting men had perished from the camp, as the LORD had sworn to them.
A o na makahiki o ko kakou hele ana mai Kadesabanea mai, a hiki kakou ma ke kahawai o Zareda, he kanakolu ia a me kumamawalu; a pau ka hanauna a pau o na kanaka koa i ka nalowale iwaena o ka poe kaua, e like me ka Iehova i hoohiki ai ia lakou.
15 Indeed, the LORD’s hand was against them, to eliminate them from the camp, until they had all perished.
No ka mea, ku e mai la ka lima o Iehova ia lakou e luku ia lakou mailoko aku o ka poe kaua, a pau lakou i ka make.
16 Now when all the fighting men among the people had died,
A i ka manawa i pau ai na kanaka koa i ka lukuia, a i ka make iwaena o na kanaka,
17 the LORD said to me,
Olelo mai la o Iehova ia'u, i mai la,
18 “Today you are going to cross the border of Moab at Ar.
E hele ana oe i ka mokuna o Moaba i Ara i keia la:
19 But when you get close to the Ammonites, do not harass them or provoke them, for I will not give you any of the land of the Ammonites. I have given it to the descendants of Lot as their possession.”
A hiki aku oe a kokoke i na mamo a Amona, mai hana ino aku ia lakou, aole hoi e hakaka aku me lakou: aole au e haawi i wahi e noho ai nou ma ka aina o na mamo a Amona; no ka mea, ua haawi aku au ia i wahi e noho ai no na mamo a Lota.
20 (That too was regarded as the land of the Rephaim, who used to live there, though the Ammonites called them Zamzummites.
(Ua manaoia hoi ia he aina kanaka nunui: o na kanaka nunui i noho ai malaila i ka manawa kahiko, a ua kapaia lakou e ka Amona, he Zamezumima;
21 They were a people great and many, as tall as the Anakites. But the LORD destroyed them from before the Ammonites, who drove them out and settled in their place,
He poe kanaka nunui, a lehulehu, a loihi, e like me na Anakima; aka, na Iehova lakou i luku aku imua o lakou, a hookuke aku lakou ia poe, a noho iho la ma ko lakou wahi:
22 just as He had done for the descendants of Esau who lived in Seir, when He destroyed the Horites from before them. They drove them out and have lived in their place to this day.
E like me kana i hana aku ai no na mamo a Esau e noho ana ma Seira, ia ia i luku ai i ka poe Horima imua o lakou; hookuke aku la lakou ia poe, a noho iho la ma ko lakou wahi, a hiki i keia la:
23 And the Avvim, who lived in villages as far as Gaza, were destroyed by the Caphtorites, who came out of Caphtor and settled in their place.)
A o ko Ava e noho ana ma Hazerima a hiki i Aza, na ko Kapetora, mai Kapetora mai, i luku aku lakou, a noho iho la ma ko lakou la wahi.)
24 “Arise, set out, and cross the Arnon Valley. See, I have delivered into your hand Sihon the Amorite, king of Heshbon, and his land. Begin to take possession of it and engage him in battle.
E ku oukou iluna, e hele aku, a hiki ma keia kapa o ke kahawai o Arenona: aia hoi, ua haawi aku au ia Sihona no ka Amora, ke alii o Hesebona, a me kona aina iloko o kou lima; e hoomaka oe e komo, a e ku e aku ia ia i ke kaua.
25 This very day I will begin to put the dread and fear of you upon all the nations under heaven. They will hear the reports of you and tremble in anguish because of you.”
I keia la e hoomaka ai au e kau i ka makau ia oe, a me ka weliweli ia oe, maluna o na lahuikanaka malalo ae o ka lani a pau, ka poe i lohe i kou kaulana ana, a e haalulu lakou, a e pilihua auanei nou.
26 So from the Wilderness of Kedemoth I sent messengers with an offer of peace to Sihon king of Heshbon, saying,
A hoouna aku la au i na elele mai ka waonahele o Kedemota aku io Sihona la, ke alii o Hesebona, me ka olelo aloha, i aku la,
27 “Let us pass through your land; we will stay on the main road. We will not turn to the right or to the left.
E ae mai oe ia'u e hele au ma kou aina: e hele au ma ke ala loa, aole au e kapae ma ka akau, aole hoi ma ka hema.
28 You can sell us food to eat and water to drink in exchange for silver. Only let us pass through on foot,
E kuai mai oe i ai na'u no ke kala, i ai iho ai au; a e haawi mai i wai no'u no ke kala, i inu ai hoi au; e hele wawae wale no au;
29 just as the descendants of Esau who live in Seir and the Moabites who live in Ar did for us, until we cross the Jordan into the land that the LORD our God is giving us.”
(E like me na mamo a Esau, e noho ana ma Seira, a me ko Moaba e noho ana ma Ara i hana mai ai ia'u; ) a hiki aku au ma keia kapa o Ioredane, ma ka aina a Iehova ko makou Akua i haawi mai ai ia makou.
30 But Sihon king of Heshbon would not let us pass through, for the LORD your God had made his spirit stubborn and his heart obstinate, that He might deliver him into your hand, as is the case this day.
Aka, aole i ae mai o Sihona, ke alii o Hesebona, e hele kakou ma o na la; no ka mea, hoopaakiki mai la o Iehova kou Akua i kona naau, a hooku e oia i kona manao, i hoolilo ai oia ia ia iloko o kou lima, e like me ia i keia la.
31 Then the LORD said to me, “See, I have begun to deliver Sihon and his land over to you. Now begin to conquer and possess his land.”
A olelo mai o Iehova ia'u, aia hoi, ua hoomaka iho nei au e hoolilo ia Sihona, a me kona aina ia oe: e komo oe, i lilo ai kona aina ia oe.
32 So Sihon and his whole army came out for battle against us at Jahaz.
Alaila hele ku e mai la o Sihona ia kakou, oia a me kona poe kanaka a pau, i ke kana ma Iahaza.
33 And the LORD our God delivered him over to us, and we defeated him and his sons and his whole army.
A hoolilo mai o Iehova ko kakou Akua ia ia imua o kakou, a luku aku la kakou ia ia, a me kana mau keiki, a me kona poe kanaka a pau.
34 At that time we captured all his cities and devoted to destruction the people of every city, including women and children. We left no survivors.
A hoopio aku la kakou i kona mau kulauakauhale a pau, a luku aku i na kanaka o na kulanakauhale a pau, a me na wahine a me na kamalii, aole kakou i hookoe i kekahi.
35 We carried off for ourselves only the livestock and the plunder from the cities we captured.
O na holoholona wale no ka kakou i la we pio ai na kakou, a me ka waiwai o na kulanakauhale, oia ka kakou i lawe.
36 From Aroer on the rim of the Arnon Valley, along with the city in the valley, even as far as Gilead, not one city had walls too high for us. The LORD our God gave us all of them.
Mai Aroera ma kapa o ke kahawai o Arenona, a me ke kulanakauhale ma ke kahawai a hiki i Gileada, aole kekahi kulanakauhale i lanakila maluna o kakou; na Iehova ko kakou Akua i hoolilo mai na mea a pau ia kakou.
37 But you did not go near the land of the Ammonites, or the land along the banks of the Jabbok River, or the cities of the hill country, or any place that the LORD our God had forbidden.
Aole nae oe i hele ma ka aina o na mamo a Amona, aole hoi ma na wahi o ke kahawai o Iaboka, aole hoi ma na kulanakauhale o na mauna, aole hoi ma kekahi wahi a Iehova ko kakou Akua i papa mai ai ia kakou.
