< Numbers 21 >
1 And when king Arad the Canaanite, who was living toward the south, had heard this, namely, that Israel had arrived by the way of spies, he fought against them. And proving to be the victor, he led away prey from them.
A LOHE ae la ke alii o Arada ka Kanaana, e noho ana ma ke kukuluhema, e hele mai ana ka Iseraela ma ke ala e hiki ai i na wahi ona, alaila, kaua mai la ia i ka Iseraela, a lawe pio aku la i kekahi poe o lakou.
2 But Israel, obliging himself by a vow to the Lord, said: “If you deliver this people into my hand, I will wipe away their cities.”
Hoohiki aku la ka Iseraela ia Iehova, i aku la, Ina paha e haawi mai oe i keia poe kanaka iloko o ko'u lima, alaila e luku loa aku no au i na kulanakauhale o lakou.
3 And the Lord heard the prayers of Israel, and he delivered the Canaanite, whom they put to death, overthrowing his cities. And they called the name of that place Hormah, that is, Anathema.
Hoolohe mai la o Iehova i ka leo o ka Iseraela, a hoolilo mai la i ka poe Kanaana: a luku loa aku la lakou ia lakou la, a me na kulanakauhale o lakou; a kapa aku la ia i ka inoa o ia wahi o Horema.
4 Then they set out from mount Hor, by the way that leads to the Red Sea, to circle around the land of Edom. And the people began to tire of their journey and hardships.
Hele aku la lakou mai ke kuahiwi o Hora aku, ma ke alanui o ke Kaiula, e puni i ka aina o Edoma: a ua pau ke aho o na kanaka no ke alanui.
5 And speaking against God and Moses, they said: “Why did you lead us away from Egypt, so as to die in the wilderness? Bread is lacking; there are no waters. Our soul is now nauseous over this very light food.”
Olelo ino aku la na kanaka i ke Akua, a ia Mose, No ke aha la olua i kai mai nei ia makou mailoko mai o Aigupita e make ma ka waonahele? no ka mea, aohe berena, aole hoi ho wai; a ke hoopailua nei ko makou naau i keia ai mama.
6 For this reason, the Lord sent fiery serpents among the people, which wounded or killed many of them.
Hoouna mai la o Iehova i na nahesa wela iwaena o na kanaka, a nahu mai la lakou i na kanaka; a he nui na kanaka o ka Iseraela i make.
7 And so they went to Moses, and they said: “We have sinned, because we have spoken against the Lord and against you. Pray, so that he may take away these serpents from us.” And Moses prayed for the people.
No ia mea, hele mai la na kanaka io Mose la, i mai la, Ua haua hewa makou; no ka mea, ua olelo ino aku makou ia Iehova a ia oe: e pule aku oe ia Iehova, e lawe aku ia i na nahesa mai o makou aku nei. A pule aku la o Mose no na kanaka.
8 And the Lord said to him: “Make a bronze serpent, and place it as a sign. Whoever, having been struck, gazes upon it, shall live.”
Olelo mai la o Iehova ia Mose, E hana oe nau i nahesa wela, a e kau aku ia maluna o ka laau, a o kela mea keia mea i nahuia, i ka wa e nana aku ai oia ia mea, e ola no ia.
9 Therefore, Moses made a bronze serpent, and he placed it as a sign. When those who had been struck gazed upon it, they were healed.
A hana iho la o Mose i nahesa keleawe, a kau aku la ia maluna o ka laau; a o ke kanaka i nahuia i ka nahesa wela, i ka wa i nana aku ai oia i ka nahesa keleawe, ua ola ia.
10 And the sons of Israel, setting out, made camp at Oboth.
A hele aku la na mamo a Iseraela, a hoomoana iho la ma Obota.
11 Having departed from there, they pitched their tents at Iye-abarim, in the wilderness, which looks out toward Moab, opposite the eastern region.
A hele lakou mai Obota aku, a hoomoana iho la ma Iieabarima, i ka waonahele ma ke alo o Moaba, ma ka hikina o ka la.
12 And moving from there, they arrived at the Torrent of Zared.
Mailaila aku lakou i hele ai, a hoomoana iho la ma ke kahawai o Zareda.
13 Having left that place behind, they then made camp opposite Arnon, which is in the desert, and which juts out at the borders of the Amorite. For certainly Arnon is at the limit of Moab, dividing the Moabites and the Amorites.
Mailaila aku lakou i hele ai, a hoomoana iho la ma hela aoao o Arenona, ma ka waonahele e hele mai ana mailoko mai o na palena o ka Amora; no ka mea, o Arenona oia ka palena o Moaba, mawaena o Moaba a me ka Amora.
14 About this place, it is said in the book of the wars of the Lord: “As he did at the Red Sea, so will he do at the Torrents of Arnon.”
Nolaila, ua olelo ia maloko o ka buke o na kaua a Iehova, ma Vaheba ma Supa, a ma na kahawai o Arenona,
15 The stones of the torrents were bent, so that they might rest in Ar and lie back within the borders of the Moabites.
A ma ke kahe ana o na kahawai, ka mea hele ma ka noho ana o Ara, a moe iho ma ka palena o Moaba.
16 Beyond that place appeared a well, about which the Lord said to Moses: “Gather the people together, and I will give them water.”
Mailaila aku lakou a Beera; oia ka punawai kahi a Iehova i olelo mai ai ia Mose, E hoakoakoa i na kanaka, a e haawi aku no wau i wai no lakou.
17 Then Israel sang this verse: “Let the well rise up.” They sang:
Alaila mele aku la ka Iseraela i keia mele, E huahuai mai, e ka punawai; E mele aku oukou ia ia:
18 “The well, the leaders dug it, and the commanders of the multitude prepared it, at the direction of the lawgiver, and with their staffs.”
O na luna ka i kohi iho i ka punawai, O na'lii o na kanaka i eli iho ia, Mamuli o ka Lunakanawai, me na kookoo o lakou. A mai ka waonahele aku lakou a Matana;
19 They went from the wilderness to Mattanah, from Mattanah to Nahaliel, from Nahaliel to Bamoth,
A mai Matana aku a Nahaliela; a mai Nahaliela aku a Bamota:
20 from Bamoth, a valley in the region of Moab, to the top of Pisgah, which looks out opposite the desert.
A mai Bamota aku lakou a i ke awawa ma ke kula o Moaba, malalo o ka puu o Pisega, ma ka aoao e huli ana i ka waonahele.
21 Then Israel sent messengers to Sihon, the king of the Amorites, saying:
Hoouna aku la ka Iseraela i na elele io Sihona la ke alii o ka Amora, i aku la,
22 “I beg you to permit me to cross through your land. We will not turn aside into the fields or the vineyards. We will not drink waters from the wells. We will travel by the royal way, until we have passed your borders.”
E ae mai oe e hele aku wau mawaena o kou aina: aole makou e kipa ma na mahinaai, aole hoi ma na pawaina: aole makou e inu i ka wai o ka punawai; e hele aku no makou ma ke alanui o ke alii, a hala aku la makou mai kou mau palena aku.
23 And he was not willing to allow Israel to cross through his borders. But instead, gathering an army, he went out to meet them in the desert, and he arrived at Jahaz and fought against them.
Aole no i ae mai o Sihona e hele aku ka Iseraela mawaena o kona mau palena: aku, hoakoakoa ae la o Sihona i kona poe kanaka a pau, a hele aku la iloko o ka waonahele e ku e i ka Iseraela: a hele mai la ia i Iahaza, a kaua mai la i ka Iseraela.
24 And he was struck down by them with the edge of the sword, and they possessed his land from Arnon, even to Jabbok and the sons of Ammon. For the borders of the Ammonites were held by a strong fortress.
Luku aku la ka Iseraela la ia i ka pahikaua, a komo aku la i kona aina mai Arenona a Iaboka, a hiki i na mamo a Amona: no ka mea, ua paa ka palena o na mamo a Amona.
25 Therefore, Israel took all his cities and lived in the cities of the Amorite, namely, in Heshbon and its villages.
Lawe pio ae la ka Iseraela i keia mau kulanakauhale a pau: a noho iho la ka Iseraela ma na kulanakauhale a pau o ka Amora, i Hesebona, a i na kauhale a pau o ia wahi.
26 Heshbon was the city of Sihon, the king of the Amorites, who fought against the king of Moab. And he took all the land, which had been under his sovereignty, as far as Arnon.
No ka mea, o Hesebona ke kulanakauhale o Sihona ke alii o ka Amora, nana i kaua aku mamua i ke alii o Moaba, a lawe ae la i kona aina a pau mai kona lima aku, a hiki i Arenona.
27 About this, it is said in the proverb: “Enter into Heshbon. Let the city of Sihon be established and built.
No ia mea, i mai la na hakumele, E hele oukou iloko o Hesebona, e hana hou ia Ke kulanakauhale o Sihona e hookumuia:
28 A fire has gone forth from Heshbon, a flame from the town of Sihon, and it has devoured Ar of the Moabites, and the inhabitants of the heights of Arnon.
No ka mea, mai Hesebona i hele aku ai ke ahi, He lapalapa ahi ma ke kulanakauhale o Sihona aku: Ua hoopau oia ia Ara o Moaba, A me na haku o na wahi kiekie o Arenona.
29 Woe to you, Moab! You are perishing, O people of Chemosh. He gave flight to his sons, and he gave the daughters into captivity, to the king of the Amorites, Sihon.
Auwe oe, e Moaba! ua make no oe! E na kanaka o Kemosa! Ua haawi aku ia i kana mau keikikane i pakele, A me kana mau kaikamahine, i poe pio No ke alii o ka Amora, no Sihona.
30 Their yoke has been scattered from Heshbon even to Dibon. They have passed through, wearily, into Nophah, and as far as Medeba.”
Ua pana pua aku makou ia lakou; Ua lukuia o Hesebona a hiki i Dibona, Ua hooneoneo makou a hiki aku i Nopa, A hiki hoi i Medeba.
31 And so Israel lived in the land of the Amorite.
A noho iho la ka Iseraela ma ka aina o ka Amora.
32 And Moses sent some to explore Jazer. These captured its villages and possessed its inhabitants.
A hoouna aku la o Mose e makaikai ia Iaazera, a komo lakou i na kulanakauhale o ia wahi, a hookuke aku la i ka Amora malaila.
33 And they turned themselves and ascended, along the way of Bashan. And Og, the king of Bashan, met them with all his people, to fight at Edrei.
Haliu ae la lakou, a pii aku la ma ke alanui o Basana: a hele mai la o Oga ke alii o Basana e ku e mai ia lakou, oia a me kona poe kanaka a pau, i ke kaua ma Ederei.
34 And the Lord said to Moses: “Do not be afraid of him. For I have delivered him, and all his people, as well as his land, into your hand. And you shall do to him just as you did to Sihon, the king of the Amorites, the inhabitant of Heshbon.”
Olelo mai la o Iehova ia Mose, Mai makau oe ia ia; no ka mea, ua haawi aku no wau ia ia iloko o kou lima, me kona kanaka a pau, a me kona aina: a e hana aku oe ia ia me kau i hana aku ai ia Sihona ke alii o ka Amora i noho ma Hesebona.
35 Therefore, they struck him down also, with his sons, and all his people, even to utter destruction, and they possessed his land.
A luku aku la lakou ia ia, me kana mau keikikane, a me kona poe kanaka a pau, aole i koe kekahi e ola ana nona: a komo aku la lakou i kona aina.
