Numbers 21
1 When the Canaanite king of Arad, who lived in the Negev, heard that Israel was coming along the road to Atharim, he attacked Israel and captured some prisoners.
住南地的迦南人亚拉得王，听说以色列人从亚他林路来，就和以色列人争战，掳了他们几个人。
2 So Israel made a vow to the LORD: “If You will deliver this people into our hands, we will devote their cities to destruction.”
以色列人向耶和华发愿说：“你若将这民交付我手，我就把他们的城邑尽行毁灭。”
3 And the LORD heard Israel’s plea and delivered up the Canaanites. Israel devoted them and their cities to destruction; so they named the place Hormah.
耶和华应允了以色列人，把迦南人交付他们，他们就把迦南人和迦南人的城邑尽行毁灭。那地方的名便叫何珥玛。
4 Then they set out from Mount Hor along the route to the Red Sea, in order to bypass the land of Edom. But the people grew impatient on the journey
他们从何珥山起行，往红海那条路走，要绕过以东地。百姓因这路难行，心中甚是烦躁，
5 and spoke against God and against Moses: “Why have you led us up out of Egypt to die in the wilderness? There is no bread or water, and we detest this wretched food!”
就怨 神和摩西说：“你们为什么把我们从埃及领出来、使我们死在旷野呢？这里没有粮，没有水，我们的心厌恶这淡薄的食物。”
6 So the LORD sent venomous snakes among the people, and many of the Israelites were bitten and died.
于是耶和华使火蛇进入百姓中间，蛇就咬他们。以色列人中死了许多。
7 Then the people came to Moses and said, “We have sinned by speaking against the LORD and against you. Intercede with the LORD so He will take the snakes away from us.” So Moses interceded for the people.
百姓到摩西那里，说：“我们怨 耶和华和你，有罪了。求你祷告耶和华，叫这些蛇离开我们。”于是摩西为百姓祷告。
8 Then the LORD said to Moses, “Make a fiery serpent and mount it on a pole. When anyone who is bitten looks at it, he will live.”
耶和华对摩西说：“你制造一条火蛇，挂在杆子上；凡被咬的，一望这蛇，就必得活。”
9 So Moses made a bronze snake and mounted it on a pole. If anyone who was bitten looked at the bronze snake, he would live.
摩西便制造一条铜蛇，挂在杆子上；凡被蛇咬的，一望这铜蛇就活了。
10 Then the Israelites set out and camped at Oboth.
以色列人起行，安营在阿伯。
11 They journeyed from Oboth and camped at Iye-abarim in the wilderness opposite Moab to the east.
又从阿伯起行，安营在以耶·亚巴琳，与摩押相对的旷野，向日出之地。
12 From there they set out and camped in the Valley of Zered.
从那里起行，安营在撒烈谷。
13 From there they moved on and camped on the other side of the Arnon, in the wilderness that extends into the Amorite territory. Now the Arnon is the border between the Moabites and the Amorites.
从那里起行，安营在亚嫩河那边。这亚嫩河是在旷野，从亚摩利的境界流出来的；原来亚嫩河是摩押的边界，在摩押和亚摩利人搭界的地方。
14 Therefore it is stated in the Book of the Wars of the LORD: “Waheb in Suphah and the wadis of the Arnon,
所以耶和华的战记上说：“苏法的哇哈伯与亚嫩河的谷，
15 even the slopes of the wadis that extend to the site of Ar and lie along the border of Moab.”
并向亚珥城众谷的下坡，是靠近摩押的境界。”
16 From there they went on to Beer, the well where the LORD said to Moses, “Gather the people so that I may give them water.”
以色列人从那里起行，到了比珥。从前耶和华吩咐摩西说：“招聚百姓，我好给他们水喝”，说的就是这井。
17 Then Israel sang this song: “Spring up, O well, all of you sing to it!
当时，以色列人唱歌说： 井啊，涌上水来！ 你们要向这井歌唱。
18 The princes dug the well; the nobles of the people hollowed it out with their scepters and with their staffs.” From the wilderness the Israelites went on to Mattanah,
这井是首领和民中的尊贵人 用圭用杖所挖所掘的。 以色列人从旷野往玛他拿去，
19 and from Mattanah to Nahaliel, and from Nahaliel to Bamoth,
从玛他拿到拿哈列，从拿哈列到巴末，
20 and from Bamoth to the valley in Moab where the top of Pisgah overlooks the wasteland.
从巴末到摩押地的谷，又到那下望旷野之毗斯迦的山顶。
21 Then Israel sent messengers to Sihon king of the Amorites, saying,
以色列人差遣使者去见亚摩利人的王西宏，说：
22 “Let us pass through your land. We will not cut through any field or vineyard, or drink water from any well. We will stay on the King’s Highway until we have passed through your territory.”
“求你容我们从你的地经过；我们不偏入田间和葡萄园，也不喝井里的水，只走大道，直到过了你的境界。”
23 But Sihon would not let Israel pass through his territory. Instead, he gathered his whole army and went out to confront Israel in the wilderness. When he came to Jahaz, he fought against Israel.
西宏不容以色列人从他的境界经过，就招聚他的众民出到旷野，要攻击以色列人，到了雅杂与以色列人争战。
24 And Israel put him to the sword and took possession of his land, from the Arnon to the Jabbok—but only up to the border of the Ammonites, because it was fortified.
以色列人用刀杀了他，得了他的地，从亚嫩河到雅博河，直到亚扪人的境界，因为亚扪人的境界多有坚垒。
25 Israel captured all the cities of the Amorites and occupied them, including Heshbon and all its villages.
以色列人夺取这一切的城邑，也住亚摩利人的城邑，就是希实本与希实本的一切乡村。
26 Heshbon was the city of Sihon king of the Amorites, who had fought against the former king of Moab and taken all his land as far as the Arnon.
这希实本是亚摩利王西宏的京城；西宏曾与摩押的先王争战，从他手中夺取了全地，直到亚嫩河。
27 That is why the poets say: “Come to Heshbon, let it be rebuilt; let the city of Sihon be restored.
所以那些作诗歌的说： 你们来到希实本； 愿西宏的城被修造，被建立。
28 For a fire went out from Heshbon, a blaze from the city of Sihon. It consumed Ar of Moab, the rulers of Arnon’s heights.
因为有火从希实本发出， 有火焰出于西宏的城， 烧尽摩押的亚珥和亚嫩河邱坛的祭司 。
29 Woe to you, O Moab! You are destroyed, O people of Chemosh! He gave up his sons as refugees, and his daughters into captivity to Sihon king of the Amorites.
摩押啊，你有祸了！ 基抹的民哪，你们灭亡了！ 基抹的男子逃奔， 女子被掳，交付亚摩利的王西宏。
30 But we have overthrown them; Heshbon is destroyed as far as Dibon. We demolished them as far as Nophah, which reaches to Medeba.”
我们射了他们； 希实本直到底本尽皆毁灭。 我们使地变成荒场，直到挪法； 这挪法直延到米底巴。
31 So Israel lived in the land of the Amorites.
这样，以色列人就住在亚摩利人之地。
32 After Moses had sent spies to Jazer, Israel captured its villages and drove out the Amorites who were there.
摩西打发人去窥探雅谢，以色列人就占了雅谢的镇市，赶出那里的亚摩利人。
33 Then they turned and went up the road to Bashan, and Og king of Bashan and his whole army came out to meet them in battle at Edrei.
以色列人转回，向巴珊去。巴珊王噩和他的众民都出来，在以得来与他们交战。
34 But the LORD said to Moses, “Do not fear him, for I have delivered him into your hand, along with all his people and his land. Do to him as you did to Sihon king of the Amorites, who lived in Heshbon.”
耶和华对摩西说：“不要怕他！因我已将他和他的众民，并他的地，都交在你手中；你要待他像从前待住希实本的亚摩利王西宏一般。”
35 So they struck down Og, along with his sons and his whole army, until no remnant was left. And they took possession of his land.
于是他们杀了他和他的众子，并他的众民，没有留下一个，就得了他的地。
