Numbers 21
1 And Arad the Chananitish king who dwelt by the wilderness, heard that Israel came by the way of Atharin; and he made war on Israel, and carried off some of them captives.
Raja negeri Arad, orang Kanaan yang tinggal di Tanah Negeb, mendengar, bahwa Israel datang dari jalan Atarim, lalu ia berperang melawan Israel, dan diangkutnya beberapa orang tawanan dari pada mereka.
2 And Israel vowed a vow to the Lord, and said, If thou wilt deliver this people into my power, I will devote it and its cities [to thee].
Maka bernazarlah orang Israel kepada TUHAN, katanya: "Jika Engkau serahkan bangsa ini sama sekali ke dalam tangan kami, kami akan menumpas kota-kota mereka sampai binasa."
3 And the Lord hearkened to the voice of Israel, and delivered the Chananite into his power; and [Israel] devoted him and his cities, and they called the name of that place Anathema.
TUHAN mendengarkan permintaan orang Israel, lalu menyerahkan orang Kanaan itu; kemudian orang-orang itu dan kota-kotanya ditumpas sampai binasa. Itulah sebabnya tempat itu dinamai Horma.
4 And having departed from mount Or by the way [leading] to the Red Sea, they compassed the land of Edom, and the people lost courage by the way.
Setelah mereka berangkat dari gunung Hor, berjalan ke arah Laut Teberau untuk mengelilingi tanah Edom, maka bangsa itu tidak dapat lagi menahan hati di tengah jalan.
5 And the people spoke against God and against Moses, saying, Why is this? Hast thou brought us ought of Egypt to slay us in the wilderness? for there is not bread nor water; and our soul loathes this light bread.
Lalu mereka berkata-kata melawan Allah dan Musa: "Mengapa kamu memimpin kami keluar dari Mesir? Supaya kami mati di padang gurun ini? Sebab di sini tidak ada roti dan tidak ada air, dan akan makanan hambar ini kami telah muak."
6 And the Lord sent among the people deadly serpents, and they bit the people, and much people of the children of Israel died.
Lalu TUHAN menyuruh ular-ular tedung ke antara bangsa itu, yang memagut mereka, sehingga banyak dari orang Israel yang mati.
7 And the people came to Moses and said, We have sinned, for we have spoken against the Lord, and against thee: pray therefore to the Lord, and let him take away the serpent from us.
Kemudian datanglah bangsa itu mendapatkan Musa dan berkata: "Kami telah berdosa, sebab kami berkata-kata melawan TUHAN dan engkau; berdoalah kepada TUHAN, supaya dijauhkan-Nya ular-ular ini dari pada kami." Lalu Musa berdoa untuk bangsa itu.
8 And Moses prayed to the Lord for the people; and the Lord said to Moses, Make thee a serpent, and put it on a signal-[staff]; and it shall come to pass that whenever a serpent shall bite a man, every one [so] bitten that looks upon it shall live.
Maka berfirmanlah TUHAN kepada Musa: "Buatlah ular tedung dan taruhlah itu pada sebuah tiang; maka setiap orang yang terpagut, jika ia melihatnya, akan tetap hidup."
9 And Moses made a serpent of brass, and put it upon a signal-[staff]: and it came to pass that whenever a serpent bit a man, and he looked on the brazen serpent, he lived.
Lalu Musa membuat ular tembaga dan menaruhnya pada sebuah tiang; maka jika seseorang dipagut ular, dan ia memandang kepada ular tembaga itu, tetaplah ia hidup.
10 And the children of Israel departed, and encamped in Oboth.
Kemudian berangkatlah orang Israel, lalu berkemah di Obot.
11 And having departed from Oboth, they encamped in Achalgai, on the farther side in the wilderness, which is opposite Moab, toward the east.
Berangkatlah mereka dari Obot, lalu berkemah dekat reruntuhan di Abarim, di padang gurun yang di sebelah timur Moab.
12 And thence they departed, and encamped in the valley of Zared.
Dari situ berangkatlah mereka, lalu berkemah di lembah Zered.
13 And they departed thence and encamped on the other side of Arnon in the wilderness, [the country] which extends from the coasts of the Amorites; for Arnon is the borders of Moab, between Moab and the Amorites.
Dari situ berangkatlah mereka, lalu berkemah di seberang sungai Arnon yang di padang gurun dan yang keluar dari daerah orang Amori, sebab sungai Arnon ialah batas Moab, di antara orang Moab dan orang Amori.
14 Therefore it is said in a book, A war of the Lord has set on fire Zoob, and the brooks of Arnon.
Itulah sebabnya dikatakan dalam kitab peperangan TUHAN: "Waheb di Sufa dan lembah-lembah ke sungai Arnon,
15 And he has appointed brooks to cause Er to dwell [there]; and it lies near to the coasts of Moab.
dan lereng lembah-lembah; lereng itu terbentang ke tempat di mana terletak kota Ar, dan bersandar pada batas daerah Moab."
16 And thence [they came to] the well; this [is] the well of which the Lord said to Moses, Gather the people, and I will give them water to drink.
Dari sana mereka ke Beer. Inilah sumur di mana TUHAN berfirman kepada Musa: "Kumpulkanlah bangsa itu, maka Aku akan memberikan air kepada mereka."
17 Then Israel sang this song at the well, Begin [to sing] of the well;
Pada waktu itu orang Israel menyanyikan nyanyian ini: "Berbual-buallah, hai sumur! Mari kita bernyanyi-nyanyi berbalas-balasan karena sumur yang digali oleh raja-raja,
18 the princes digged it, the kings of the nations in their kingdom, in their lordship sank it in the rock: and [they went] from the well to Manthanain,
yang dikorek oleh kaum bangsawan di antara bangsa itu dengan tongkat-tongkat kerajaan, dengan tongkat-tongkat mereka." Dan dari padang gurun mereka ke Matana;
19 and from Manthanain to Naaliel, and from Naaliel to Bamoth, and from Bamoth to Janen, which is in the plain of Moab [as seen] from the top of the quarried [rock] that looks toward the wilderness.
dari Matana ke Nahaliel; dari Nahaliel ke Bamot;
20 And Moses sent ambassadors to Seon king of the Amorites, with peaceable words, saying,
dari Bamot ke lembah yang di daerah Moab, dekat puncak gunung Pisga yang menghadap Padang Belantara.
21 We will pass through thy land, we will go by the road; we will not turn aside to the field or to the vineyard.
Kemudian orang Israel mengirim utusan kepada Sihon, raja orang Amori, dengan pesan:
22 We will not drink water out of thy well; we will go by the king's highway, until we have past thy boundaries.
"Izinkanlah kami melalui negerimu; kami tidak akan menyimpang masuk ke ladang-ladang dan kebun-kebun anggurmu, kami tidak akan minum air sumurmu, di jalan besar saja kami akan berjalan, sampai kami melalui batas daerahmu."
23 And Seon did not allow Israel to pass through his borders, and Seon gathered all his people, and went out to set the battle in array against Israel into the wilderness; and he came to Jassa, and set the battle in array against Israel.
Tetapi Sihon tidak mengizinkan orang Israel berjalan melalui daerahnya, bahkan ia mengumpulkan seluruh laskarnya, lalu keluar ke padang gurun menghadapi orang Israel, dan sesampainya di Yahas berperanglah ia melawan orang Israel.
24 And Israel smote him with the slaughter of the sword, and they became possessors of his land, from Arnon to Jaboc, as far as the children of Amman, for Jazer is the borders of the children of Amman.
Tetapi orang Israel mengalahkan dia dengan mata pedang dan menduduki negerinya dari sungai Arnon sampai ke sungai Yabok, sampai kepada bani Amon, sebab batas daerah bani Amon itu kuat.
25 And Israel took all their cities, and Israel dwelt in all the cities of the Amorites, in Esebon, and in all cities belonging to it.
Dan orang Israel merebut segala kota itu, lalu menetaplah mereka di segala kota orang Amori, di Hesybon dan segala anak kotanya.
26 For Esebon is the city of Seon king of the Amorites; and he before fought against the king of Moab, and they took all his land, from Aroer to Arnon.
Sebab Hesybon ialah kota kediaman Sihon, raja orang Amori; raja ini tadinya berperang melawan raja Moab yang lalu, dan merebut dari tangannya seluruh negerinya sampai ke sungai Arnon.
27 Therefore say they who deal in dark speeches, Come to Esebon, that the city of Seon may be built and prepared.
Itulah sebabnya penyair-penyair berkata: "Datanglah ke Hesybon, baiklah dibangun dan baiklah diperkuat kota kediaman Sihon itu!
28 For a fire has gone forth from Esebon, a flame from the city of Seon, and has consumed as far as Moab, and devoured the pillars of Arnon.
Sebab api keluar dari Hesybon, nyala dari kota kediaman Sihon, yang memakan habis Ar-Moab, yang berkuasa atas bukit-bukit di sepanjang sungai Arnon.
29 Woe to thee, Moab; thou art lost, thou people of Chamos: their sons are sold for preservation, and their daughters are captives to Seon king of the Amorites.
Celakalah engkau, ya Moab; binasa engkau, ya bangsa Kamos! Ia membuat anak-anaknya lelaki menjadi orang-orang pelarian, dan anak-anaknya perempuan menjadi tawanan kepada Sihon, raja orang Amori.
30 And their seed shall perish [from] Esebon to Daebon; and their women have yet farther kindled a fire against Moab.
Kita telah menembaki mereka, Hesybon binasa sampai ke Dibon, dan kita menanduskannya sampai ke Nofah, yang terbentang sampai ke Medeba."
31 And Israel dwelt in all the cities of the Amorites.
Demikianlah orang Israel diam di negeri orang Amori.
32 And Moses sent to spy out Jazer; and they took it, and its villages, and cast out the Amorite that dwelt there.
Setelah Musa menyuruh orang mengintai kota Yaezer, mereka merebut segala anak kota Yaezer dan menghalau orang-orang Amori yang ada di situ.
33 And having returned, they went up the road thhebraismat leads to Basan; and Og the king of Basan went forth to meet them, and all his people to war to Edrain.
Kemudian berpalinglah mereka dan maju ke arah Basan. Lalu Og, raja Basan, beserta segala rakyatnya maju ke Edrei menjumpai mereka untuk berperang.
34 And the Lord said to Moses, Fear him not; for I have delivered him and all his people, and all his land, into thy hands; and thou shalt do to him as thou didst to Seon king of the Amorites, who dwelt in Esebon.
Tetapi TUHAN berfirman kepada Musa: "Janganlah takut kepadanya, sebab Aku menyerahkan dia dengan seluruh rakyatnya dan negerinya ke dalam tanganmu, dan haruslah kaulakukan kepadanya seperti yang kaulakukan kepada Sihon, raja orang Amori, yang diam di Hesybon."
35 And he smote him and his sons, and all his people, until he left none of his to be taken alive; and they inherited his land.
Maka mereka mengalahkan dia dan anak-anaknya dan seluruh rakyatnya, sehingga seorangpun dari mereka tidak ada yang dibiarkan terlepas; lalu mereka menduduki negerinya.
