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.
kut forla ac folokla nu yen mwesis, ke inkanek nu inalok ke Meoa Srusra, oana LEUM GOD El sapkin, ac kut sisla pacl loeloes in foroht forma infulan eol lun Edom.
2 At this time the LORD said to me,
Na LEUM GOD El fahk nu sik mu
3 “You have been wandering around this hill country long enough; turn to the north
fal tari pacl kut forfor infulan eol ingo, ac kut enenu in som nu epang.
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.
El fahk nu sik ngan sot nu suwos kas inge: ‘Kowos akuranna fahsr sasla infulan eol Edom, facl sin fwilin tulik natul Esau, su mwet liwos. Elos ac fah sangeng suwos,
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.
tusruktu nik kowos aklokoalokyalos, mweyen nga fah tia sot kutu srisrik acn lalos nu suwos, finne square foot se. Nga sang tari acn Edom tuh in ma lun mwet ke fwilin tulik natul Esau.
6 You are to pay them in silver for the food you eat and the water you drink.’”
Kowos ku in moul mongo nowos ac kof nimowos selos.’
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.
“Esam lah LEUM GOD lowos El akinsewowoye kowos in ma nukewa kowos oru. El karingin kowos in forfor lowos yen mwesis lulap se inge. El wi kowos ke yac angngaul inge, ac sot ma nukewa kowos enenu.
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.
“Na kut mukuiyak ac som liki inkanek ma som liki siti Elath ac Eziongeber nu ke Meoa Misa, na kut kuhfla nu kuta epang in som nu Moab.
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.”
LEUM GOD El fahk nu sik, ‘Nimet aklokoalokye mwet Moab, su fwilin tulik natul Lot, ac nimet mweun nu selos. Nga sang tari siti Ar nu selos, ac nga ac tia sot nu suwos kutena acn selos.’” (
10 (The Emites used to live there, a people great and many, as tall as the Anakites.
Sie un mwet na yohk pisa pangpang mwet Emim muta in acn Ar meet. Elos mwet na loeska oana mwet Anak, sie pacna un mwet yohk pisa.
11 Like the Anakites, they were also regarded as Rephaim, though the Moabites called them Emites.
Kutu mwet uh pangon mwet Emim ac mwet Anak ke e se inge: Rephaim. Tusruktu mwet Moab uh pangnolos Emim.
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.)
Mwet Hor elos tuh muta Edom in pacl meet, tusruktu fwilin tulik natul Esau luselosla, kunausla mutunfacl selos, ac oakwuki we, oapana ma mwet Israel elos tuh oru tok ke elos lusla mwet lokoalok lalos liki acn ma LEUM GOD El tuh sang selos.)
13 “Now arise and cross over the Brook of Zered.” So we crossed over the Brook of Zered.
“Na kut alukeot Infacl Zered, oana LEUM GOD El sapkin nu sesr.
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.
Ma inge sikyak yac tolngoul oalkosr tukun kut tuku liki acn Kadesh Barnea. Mwet mweun nukewa in fwil sac misa nufon, oana ma LEUM GOD El tuh fahk.
15 Indeed, the LORD’s hand was against them, to eliminate them from the camp, until they had all perished.
LEUM GOD El nuna lainulos na nwe ke El kunauselosla nukewa.
16 Now when all the fighting men among the people had died,
“Tukun elos nukewa misa,
17 the LORD said to me,
LEUM GOD El fahk nu sesr,
18 “Today you are going to cross the border of Moab at Ar.
‘Misenge kowos ac fahsr sasla acn lun mwet Moab ke inkanek nu Ar.
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.”
Na kowos ac fah apkuran nu ke facl sin mwet Ammon, su fwilin tulik natul Lot. Nikmet aklokoalokyalos ku mweun nu selos, mweyen nga ac tia sot kutena acn lowos ke acn ma nga sang tari nu selos.’” (
20 (That too was regarded as the land of the Rephaim, who used to live there, though the Ammonites called them Zamzummites.
Facl se inge oayapa eteyuk mu facl sin mwet Rephaim, inen mwet ma tuh muta we meet, a mwet Ammon uh pangnolos Zamzummim.
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,
Elos arulana loes, oana mwet Anak. Oayapa elos arulana pus, ac sie un mwet na fokoko. Tusruktu LEUM GOD El kunauselosla, tuh mwet Ammon in eisla acn selos ac oakwuki fac.
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.
LEUM GOD El tuh oru ouiya se pacna inge nu sin mwet Edom, fwilin tulik natul Esau, su muta infulan eol lun Edom. El kunausla mwet Hor, ac oru tuh mwet Edom in eisla acn selos ac oakwuki we, ac elos srakna muta we nwe inge.
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.)
Acn ma oan weacn Meoa Mediterranean oakwuki tari sin mwet tuku liki tuka Crete. Elos onela mwet Avvim, su mwet na pwaye we, ac eisla acn nukewa lalos, som na nwe siti Gaza in acn eir.)
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.
“Tukun kut fahla sasla Moab, LEUM GOD El fahk nu sesr, ‘Inge, fahsrot alukela Infacl Arnon. Nga ac eisalot Sihon, tokosra lun mwet Amor ke siti Heshbon, nu inpouwos wi pac facl sel. Kowos in mweunel, ac mutawauk in muta fin acn sel.
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.”
Misenge lac, nga ac oru mutanfahl nukewa in sangeng suwos. Mwet nukewa fah rarrar ac sangeng ke elos ac lohng keiwos.’
26 So from the Wilderness of Kedemoth I sent messengers with an offer of peace to Sihon king of Heshbon, saying,
“Na nga supwala kutu mwet utuk kas yen mwesis Kedemoth lac nu yorol Tokosra Sihon lun Heshbon, ke kas in akmisye inmasrlosr inge:
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.
‘Lela nu sesr in fahsr sasla acn sum uh. Kut ac fahsrna ke inkanek lulap uh, ac tiana kuhfla liki.
28 You can sell us food to eat and water to drink in exchange for silver. Only let us pass through on foot,
Kut ac moli mwe mongo nasr ac kof nimasr. Ma sefanna kut enenu uh pa kut in fahla fin acn sum an,
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.”
nwe ke kut alukela Infacl Jordan nu in facl se LEUM GOD El ase in lasr. Tulik natul Esau su muta Edom, ac mwet Moab su muta Ar, elos lela kut in alukela facl selos.’
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.
Tusruktu Tokosra Sihon el tia lela kut in fahsr sasla fin facl sel. LEUM GOD lowos El akupaye insial in lain kowos, kut in mau ku in kutangulla ac eisla facl sel, su kut srakna muta fac nwe misenge.
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.”
“Na LEUM GOD El fahk nu sik, ‘Liye, nga oru tuh Tokosra Sihon ac acn sel uh in munas suwos. Sruokya acn sel an ac muta fac.’
32 So Sihon and his whole army came out for battle against us at Jahaz.
Tokosra Sihon el tufokme wi mwet lal nukewa in mweuni kut apkuran nu ke siti Jahaz,
33 And the LORD our God delivered him over to us, and we defeated him and his sons and his whole army.
tusruktu LEUM GOD lasr El eisalosme nu inpaosr, ac kut unilya, wi wen natul ac mwet lal nukewa.
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.
In pacl sac pacna, kut sruokya ac kunausla siti nukewa, ac uniya mwet nukewa: mukul, mutan, ac tulik. Wangin mwet moul.
35 We carried off for ourselves only the livestock and the plunder from the cities we captured.
Kut usla kosro nukewa ac ma saok nukewa in siti lalos.
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.
LEUM GOD lasr El kasrekut in sruokya siti nukewa, mutawauk Aroer sisken Infahlfal Arnon, wi siti se ma oan infulwen infahlfal uh, som na nwe Gilead. Wangin siti ma kalkalyak ku, upa nu sesr in eisla.
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.
Tusruktu kut tia som apkuran nu ke acn lun mwet Ammon, ku nu ke pe Infacl Jabbok, ku nu ke siti infulan eol uh, ku nu ke kutena acn ma LEUM GOD El sap kut in tia som nu we.
