< Deuteronomy 2 >
1 Then we turned around and headed back into the desert on the road that leads to the Red Sea, as the Lord had told me, and we wandered around Mount Seir for a long time.
Niotak’ amy zao tika nionjomb’ am-patrambey mb’eo, niary i Ria-Binday, mb’ami’ty nanoroa’ Iehovà ahiko vaho nañariary i Vohi-Seirey andro maro.
2 This is when the Lord told me,
Le hoe ty nitsarae’ Iehovà amako:
3 “You have been wandering around this mountain long enough. Go back north,
Fa losotse ty fiariaria’ areo ty vohitse toy. Mitoliha mañavaratse,
4 and give these orders to the people: ‘You are going to pass through the territory of your relatives, the descendants of Esau, who live in Seir. They will be frightened of you, so you need to be very careful.
le afantoho ty hoe ondatio: Ho rangae’ areo ty tanen-drolongo’ areo, o tarira’ i Esave mpimoneñe e Seireo, f’ie ho hembañe ama’areo, aa le mitaoa
5 Don't fight them, for I'm not going to give you any of their land, not even the size of a footprint, because I have given Mount Seir to Esau and it belongs to him.
tsy mone hihotakotak’ am’ iereo fa tsy hitalorako ndra zehem-pandia raik’ amy tane’iareoy amy te nimeako i Esave ho fanaña’e ty Vohi’ Seire.
6 Pay them with money for the food you eat and the water you drink.’
Ho vilie’ areo an-drala o mahakama’eo hikamà’ areo, vaho hikaloa’ areo rano an-drala hinoma’ areo.
7 Remember that the Lord your God has blessed you in everything you've done. He has looked after you during your journey through this large desert. The Lord your God has been with you for these forty years, and you haven't lacked anything.”
Toe nitahie’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ areo amy ze hene satam-pità’ areo naho arofoana’e ty firanga’ areo am-patram-bey atoy. Tsy eo ty nipaia’ areo amy efa-polo taoñe nindreza’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ areo rezay.
8 So we passed by our relatives, the descendants of Esau, who live in Seir. We didn't take the Arabah road from Elath and Ezion-geber. Instead we used the road that goes through the desert of Moab.
Aa le niarian-tika o tarira’ i Esave longon-tika mimoneñe e Seire ao, le nengan-tika ty lala’ i Arabà naho navotson-tika t’i Elate naho i Etsione-Gebere le nitsile vaho niary mb’amy lala’ i fatrambei’ i Moabeiy mb’eo.
9 Then the Lord told me, “Don't cause the Moabites any trouble or fight them, for I'm not going to give you any of their land, because I have given Ar to the descendants of Lot and it belongs to them.”
Le nanao ty hoe amako t’Iehovà: Ko tsiborè’o t’i Moabe ndra hialy ama’e, fa tsy ho meiko ndra kede amo tane’eo ho fanañañe, amy te natoloko amo tarira’ i Loteo ty Are ho fanaña’e.
10 (A strong and numerous people called the Emim once lived there. They were as tall as the Anakim,
(Nimoneña’ o nte-Emeo izay te taolo: ondaty mijoalajoala naho mitozantozañe, mira haabo amo nte-Anàkeo;
11 and just like the Anakim, they were also considered as Rephaim, but the Moabites called them Emim.
Betek’ atao ty hoe nte-Refae iereo manahake o nte-Anakeo, f’ie atao’ o nte-Moabeo ty hoe nte-Emà.
12 Previously the Horites lived in Seir, but the descendants of Esau took over their land. They killed the Horites and settled there, just like Israel did when they occupied the land that the Lord had given them.)
Le nimoneñe e Seire ao o nte-Koreo taolo, fa niroahe’ o ana’ i Esaveo, rinotsa’e miaolo iareo vaho nitoboke an-tane’ iareo ao, manahake ty anoe’ Israele amy tane natolotse aze ho fanaña’ey; i natolo’ Iehovà iareoy).
13 Then the Lord told us, “Go and cross over Zered Brook.” So we crossed over Zered Brook.
Miongaha arè, le itsaho o toraha’ i Tseredeo. Aa le nitsahan-tika i torahan-Tserèdey.
14 The time it took for us to travel from Kadesh-barnea to when we crossed over the Brook of Zered was thirty-eight years. By this time the entire generation of warriors had died and were no longer part of the camp, as the Lord had sworn to them would happen.
Le o andro nañaveloan-tika boake Kadese-Barneà am-para’ t’ie nitsake i torahan-Tseredeio, le taoñe telo-polo-valo’ amby, ampara’ te fonga nivetrak’ añivo’ i tobey o lahindefoñe mpiharo-nonoo, amy nifantà’ Iehovà am’ iereoy.
15 In fact the Lord worked against them to remove them from the camp, until they were all dead.
Toe nañonjona’ Iehovà haoke hañombota’e amy màroy am-para’ t’ie fonga nimongotse.
16 Once the people's warriors had died,
Naho hene nikoromake añivo’ ondatio i lahindefoñe rezay,
le nitsara ty hoe amako t’Iehovà.
18 “Today you will cross out of Moab at the border near Ar.
Hitsake i Are, efe-tane’ i Moabe irehe te anito.
19 However, when you get enter Ammonite territory, don't cause them any trouble or fight them for I'm not going to give you any Ammonite land, because I have given it to the descendants of Lot and it belongs to them.”
Ie miharine ty efe-tane’ o nte-Amoneo, le ko tsibore’o vaho ko ialiañe, fa tsy hañomeako ty tane’ iareo ho fanaña’o, amy te natoloko an-tarira’ i Lote ho fanaña’e.
20 (This land was previously considered as the country of the Rephaim who used to live there. However, the Ammonites called them Zamzummites.
(Toe natao t’ie tane’ o nte-Refaeo ka; fa nimoneñe ao o nte-Refaeo taolo, ie nitokave’ o nte-Amoneo ty hoe Zam’zome,
21 They were a strong and numerous people, as tall as the Anakim. But the Lord destroyed them when the Ammonites invaded and drove them out and settled there,
ondaty maozatse naho vasiañeñe mira amo nte-Anakeo. F’ie narotsa’ Iehovà aolo’ iareo eo handimbeza’ iareo fimoneñañe;
22 just as he'd done for the descendants of Esau who lived in Seir when he destroyed the Horites. They drove them out and settled where they used to live, and are still there to this day.
manahake ty nanoe’e amo tarira’ i Esave mimoneñe e Seireo ami’ty nandrotsaha’e o nte-Koreo aolo’ iareo, nandimbe iareo am-pimoneña’e pake henaneo;
23 The Avvim, living in villages as far away as Gaza, were destroyed by the Philistines, who came from Crete, and settled where they used to live.)
naho o nte-Aveo, ie nimoneñe e Katsere pak’ Aza añe, le rinotsa’ o nte-Kaftore boake Kaftoreo, vaho nandimbe fiambesatse.)
24 Then the Lord told us, “Get up, go and cross the Arnon Valley. Look, I have handed over to you Sihon the Amorite, king of Heshbon, as well as his land. Go and start taking it over, and fight him in battle.
Miongaha, tonjohizo ty lia’ areo, itsaho o vavatane’ i Arnoneo. Ingo fa natoloko am-pità’ areo t’i Sihone nte-Amore mpanjaka’ i Khesbone naho ty tane’e. Miorota mitavañe, naho tameo añ’aly.
25 From this day on, I'm going to make all nations on earth dread you—they will be terrified of you. Because of the news they hear about you they will tremble in terror when you appear.”
Hampihembañeko naho hampirevendreveñeko ama’o henane zao ze hene ondaty ambanen-dikerañeo; ie mijanjiñe azo le hititititike ami’ty anifañe.
26 Moses told the Israelites, “From the Kedemoth Desert I sent messengers with an offer of peace to Sihon, king of Heshbon, telling him,
Aa le nampisangitrifeko ìrake boak’ am-patrambein-Kedemote ao ho mb’e Sihone Mpanjaka’ i Khesbone añe, le hoe ty entam-panintsiñako ama’e:
27 ‘Let us pass through your land. We'll stay on the main road and won't turn off either to the right or to the left.
Angao iraho hiranga ty tane’o, fa i lalañey avao ty horiheko, tsy hitsile ndra mañavana ndra mañavia.
28 Sell us food to eat and water to drink for money. Just let us pass through on foot,
Haleta’o drala amako ty mahakama hihinanako, vaho ie fahana’ areo rano hinomako, le ho soloako bogady, fe apoho ho rangaeko an-tomboke ty tane’o—
29 just like the descendants of Esau living in Seir and the Moabites living in Ar allowed us, until we cross over the Jordan into the country that the Lord our God is giving to us.”
hambañe ami’ty nanoe’ o tarira’ i Esave mimoneñe e Seireo amako naho ty nanoe’ o nte-Moabe mpimoneñe e Areo ka—ampara’ te itsahako Iardeney mb’an-tane nitolora’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ay mb’eo.
30 But Sihon king of Heshbon refused to let us pass through, for the Lord your God gave him a stubborn spirit and an obstinate attitude, so the Lord could hand him over to you, as he has now done.
Fe tsy nimete hampiranga an-tika t’i Sihone Mpanjaka nte-Khesbone fa nampigan-troke aze t’Iehovà Andrianañahare’ areo vaho nampitokie’e ty arofo’e hanolora’e aze am-pità’ areo, le ie henaneo.
31 Then the Lord told me, “Look, I have started handing Sihon and his land over to you. Now you can begin to conquer and take over his land.”
Aa hoe t’Iehovà amako: Ingo, fa namototse hanolotse i Sihone naho i tane’ey ama’ areo iraho, aa le miorota henane zao hangalake i tane’ey ho lova’ areo.
32 Sihon and his whole army came out to fight us at Jahaz.
Aa le niavotse haname an-tika t’i Sihone, ie naho ondati’e iabio, hihotakotake ty aly e Iàhatse añe,
33 The Lord our God handed him over to us, and we killed him, his sons, and all his army.
le natolo’ Iehovà Andrianañaharentika aolon-tika vaho linafa-tika naho o tiri’eo naho ondati’e iabio.
34 We also captured all his towns, and set apart for destruction the people of every town: men, women, and children. We didn't leave any survivors.
Le hene tinavan-tika o rova’eo henane zay, le fonga zinaman-tika ze ondaty ndra rakemba ndra ajaja amo rovao. Tsy napon-tika ndra honka’e.
35 All we took for ourselves was the livestock and plunder from the towns we'd captured.
O hareo avao ty rinamben-tika ho fikopahañe rekets’ o raha kinopak’ amo rova tinavan-tikañeoo.
36 No town had walls too high for us to conquer—from Aroer on the edge of the Arnon Valley, the town in the valley, all the way to Gilead. The Lord our God handed them all over to us.
Boak’ Arore aolo’ i vavatane Arnoney (rekets’ i rova am-bavataney) pake Gilàde le tsy teo ty rova loho abo tsy nilefe, fonga natolo’ Iehovà Andrianañaharentika amantika.
37 But you didn't go anywhere near the country of the Ammonites—the area that borders the Jabbok River or the towns of the hill country, or any other place that the Lord our God had placed off limits.
Fe tsy niharinea’ areo o tanen’ ana’ i Amoneo, ndra aia aia amy saka’ Iabokey ndra amo rova ambohibohitseio, ndra aia aia nandrarà’ Iehovà Andrianañaharentika antika.
