Deuteronomy 2

1 Then we turned, and tooke our iourney into the wildernes, by the way of the red Sea, as the Lord spake vnto me: and we compassed mount Seir a long time.

١ «ثُمَّ تَحَوَّلْنَا وَٱرْتَحَلْنَا إِلَى ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ عَلَى طَرِيقِ بَحْرِ سُوفَ كَمَا كَلَّمَنِي ٱلرَّبُّ، وَدُرْنَا بِجَبَلِ سِعِيرَ أَيَّامًا كَثِيرَةً.

2 And the Lord spake vnto me, saying,

٢ ثُمَّ كَلَّمَنِي ٱلرَّبُّ قَائِلًا:

3 Ye haue compassed this mountaine long ynough: turne you Northward.

٣ كَفَاكُمْ دَوَرَانٌ بِهَذَا ٱلْجَبَلِ. تَحَوَّلُوا نَحْوَ ٱلشِّمَالِ.

4 And warne thou the people, saying, Ye shall go through the coast of your brethren the children of Esau, which dwell in Seir, and they shall be afraide of you: take ye good heede therefore.

٤ وَأَوْصِ ٱلشَّعْبَ قَائِلًا: أَنْتُمْ مَارُّونَ بِتُخْمِ إِخْوَتِكُمْ بَنِي عِيسُو ٱلسَّاكِنِينَ فِي سِعِيرَ، فَيَخَافُونَ مِنْكُمْ فَٱحْتَرِزُوا جِدًّا.

5 Ye shall not prouoke them: for I wil not giue you of their land so much as a foot breadth, because I haue giuen mount Seir vnto Esau for a possession.

٥ لَا تَهْجِمُوا عَلَيْهِمْ، لِأَنِّي لَا أُعْطِيكُمْ مِنْ أَرْضِهِمْ وَلَا وَطْأَةَ قَدَمٍ، لِأَنِّي لِعِيسُو قَدْ أَعْطَيْتُ جَبَلَ سِعِيرَ مِيرَاثًا.

6 Ye shall buy meate of them for money to eate, and ye shall also procure water of them for money to drinke.

٦ طَعَامًا تَشْتَرُونَ مِنْهُمْ بِٱلْفِضَّةِ لِتَأْكُلُوا، وَمَاءً أَيْضًا تَبْتَاعُونَ مِنْهُمْ بِٱلْفِضَّةِ لِتَشْرَبُوا.

7 For the Lord thy God hath blessed thee in all the workes of thine hand: he knoweth thy walking through this great wildernes, and the Lord thy God hath bene with thee this fourtie yeere, and thou hast lacked nothing.

٧ لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَكَ قَدْ بَارَكَكَ فِي كُلِّ عَمَلِ يَدِكَ، عَارِفًا مَسِيرَكَ فِي هَذَا ٱلْقَفْرِ ٱلْعَظِيمِ. اَلْآنَ أَرْبَعُونَ سَنَةً لِلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ مَعَكَ، لَمْ يَنْقُصْ عَنْكَ شَيْءٌ.

8 And when we were departed from our brethren the children of Esau which dwelt in Seir, through the way of the plaine, from Elath, and from Ezion-gaber, we turned and went by the way of the wildernes of Moab.

٨ فَعَبَرْنَا عَنْ إِخْوَتِنَا بَنِي عِيسُو ٱلسَّاكِنِينَ فِي سِعِيرَ عَلَى طَرِيقِ ٱلْعَرَبَةِ، عَلَى أَيْلَةَ، وَعَلَى عِصْيُونِ جَابِرَ، ثُمَّ تَحَوَّلْنَا وَمَرَرْنَا فِي طَرِيقِ بَرِّيَّةِ مُوآبَ.

9 Then the Lord sayd vnto me, Thou shalt not vexe Moab, neither prouoke them to battel: for I wil not giue thee of their land for a possession, because I haue giuen Ar vnto the children of Lot for a possession.

٩ «فَقَالَ لِي ٱلرَّبُّ: لَا تُعَادِ مُوآبَ وَلَا تُثِرْ عَلَيْهِمْ حَرْبًا، لِأَنِّي لَا أُعْطِيكَ مِنْ أَرْضِهِمْ مِيرَاثًا، لِأَنِّي لِبَنِي لُوطٍ قَدْ أَعْطَيْتُ «عَارَ» مِيرَاثًا.

10 The Emims dwelt therein in times past, a people great and many, and tall, as the Anakims.

١٠ ٱلْإِيمِيُّونَ سَكَنُوا فِيهَا قَبْلًا. شَعْبٌ كَبِيرٌ وَكَثِيرٌ وَطَوِيلٌ كَٱلْعَنَاقِيِّينَ.

11 They also were taken for gyants as the Anakims: whom the Moabites call Emims.

١١ هُمْ أَيْضًا يُحْسَبُونَ رَفَائِيِّينَ كَٱلْعَنَاقِيِّينَ، لَكِنَّ ٱلْمُوآبِيِّينَ يَدْعُونَهُمْ إِيمِيِّينَ.

12 The Horims also dwelt in Seir before time, whome the children of Esau chased out and destroyed them before them, and dwelt in their steade: as Israel shall doe vnto the land of his possession, which the Lord hath giuen them.

١٢ وَفِي سِعِيرَ سَكَنَ قَبْلًا ٱلْحُورِيُّونَ، فَطَرَدَهُمْ بَنُو عِيسُو وَأَبَادُوهُمْ مِنْ قُدَّامِهِمْ وَسَكَنُوا مَكَانَهُمْ، كَمَا فَعَلَ إِسْرَائِيلُ بِأَرْضِ مِيرَاثِهِمِ ٱلَّتِي أَعْطَاهُمُ ٱلرَّبُّ.

13 Now rise vp, sayd I, and get you ouer the riuer Zered: and we went ouer the riuer Zered.

١٣ اَلْآنَ قُومُوا وَٱعْبُرُوا وَادِيَ زَارَدَ. فَعَبَرْنَا وَادِيَ زَارَدَ.

14 The space also wherein we came from Kadesh-barnea, vntill we were come ouer the riuer Zered, was eight and thirtie yeeres, vntill all the generation of the men of warre were wasted out from among the hoste, as the Lord sware vnto them.

١٤ وَٱلْأَيَّامُ ٱلَّتِي سِرْنَا فِيهَا مِنْ قَادَشَ بَرْنِيعَ حَتَّى عَبَرْنَا وَادِيَ زَارَدَ، كَانَتْ ثَمَانِيَ وَثَلَاثِينَ سَنَةً، حَتَّى فَنِيَ كُلُّ ٱلْجِيلِ، رِجَالُ ٱلْحَرْبِ مِنْ وَسَطِ ٱلْمَحَلَّةِ، كَمَا أَقْسَمَ ٱلرَّبُّ لَهُمْ.

15 For in deede the hand of the Lord was against them, to destroy them from among the hoste, till they were consumed.

١٥ وَيَدُ ٱلرَّبِّ أَيْضًا كَانَتْ عَلَيْهِمْ لِإِبَادَتِهِمْ مِنْ وَسَطِ ٱلْمَحَلَّةِ حَتَّى فَنُوا.

16 So when all the men of warre were consumed and dead from among the people:

١٦ «فَعِنْدَمَا فَنِيَ جَمِيعُ رِجَالِ ٱلْحَرْبِ بِٱلْمَوْتِ مِنْ وَسَطِ ٱلشَّعْبِ،

17 Then the Lord spake vnto me, saying,

١٧ كَلَّمَنِي ٱلرَّبُّ قَائِلًا:

18 Thou shalt goe through Ar the coast of Moab this day:

١٨ أَنْتَ مَارٌّ ٱلْيَوْمَ بِتُخْمِ مُوآبَ، بِعَارَ.

19 And thou shalt come neere ouer against the children of Ammon: but shalt not lay siege vnto them, nor moue warre against them: for I will not giue thee of the land of the children of Ammon any possession: for I haue giuen it vnto the children of Lot for a possession.

١٩ فَمَتَى قَرُبْتَ إِلَى تُجَاهِ بَنِي عَمُّونَ، لَا تُعَادِهِمْ وَلَا تَهْجِمُوا عَلَيْهِمْ، لِأَنِّي لَا أُعْطِيكَ مِنْ أَرْضِ بَنِي عَمُّونَ مِيرَاثًا، لِأَنِّي لِبَنِي لُوطٍ قَدْ أَعْطَيْتُهَا مِيرَاثًا.

20 That also was taken for a land of gyants: for gyants dwelt therein afore time, whome the Ammonites called Zamzummims:

٢٠ هِيَ أَيْضًا تُحْسَبُ أَرْضَ رَفَائِيِّينَ. سَكَنَ ٱلرَّفَائِيُّونَ فِيهَا قَبْلًا، لَكِنَّ ٱلْعَمُّونِيِّينَ يَدْعُونَهُمْ زَمْزُمِيِّينَ.

21 A people that was great, and many, and tall, as the Anakims: but the Lord destroyed them before them, and they succeeded them in their inheritance, and dwelt in their stead:

٢١ شَعْبٌ كَبِيرٌ وَكَثِيرٌ وَطَوِيلٌ كَٱلْعَنَاقِيِّينَ، أَبَادَهُمُ ٱلرَّبُّ مِنْ قُدَّامِهِمْ، فَطَرَدُوهُمْ وَسَكَنُوا مَكَانَهُمْ.

22 As he did to the children of Esau which dwell in Seir, when he destroyed the Horims before them, and they possessed them, and dwelt in their stead vnto this day.

٢٢ كَمَا فَعَلَ لِبَنِي عِيسُو ٱلسَّاكِنِينَ فِي سِعِيرَ ٱلَّذِينَ أَتْلَفَ ٱلْحُورِيِّينَ مِنْ قُدَّامِهِمْ، فَطَرَدُوهُمْ وَسَكَنُوا مَكَانَهُمْ إِلَى هَذَا ٱلْيَوْمِ.

23 And the Auims which dwelt in Hazarim euen vnto Azzah, the Caphtorims which came out of Caphtor destroyed them, and dwelt in their steade.

٢٣ وَٱلْعُوِّيُّونَ ٱلسَّاكِنُونَ فِي ٱلْقُرَى إِلَى غَزَّةَ، أَبَادَهُمُ ٱلْكَفْتُورِيُّونَ ٱلَّذِينَ خَرَجُوا مِنْ كَفْتُورَ وَسَكَنُوا مَكَانَهُمْ.

24 Rise vp therefore, sayd the Lord: take your iourney, and passe ouer the riuer Arnon: beholde, I haue giuen into thy hand Sihon, the Amorite, King of Heshbon, and his land: begin to possesse it and prouoke him to battell.

٢٤ «قُومُوا ٱرْتَحِلُوا وَٱعْبُرُوا وَادِيَ أَرْنُونَ. اُنْظُرْ. قَدْ دَفَعْتُ إِلَى يَدِكَ سِيحُونَ مَلِكَ حَشْبُونَ ٱلْأَمُورِيَّ وَأَرْضَهُ. ٱبْتَدِئْ تَمَلَّكْ وَأَثِرْ عَلَيْهِ حَرْبًا.

25 This day wil I begin to send thy feare and thy dread, vpon all people vnder the whole heauen, which shall heare thy fame, and shall tremble and quake before thee.

٢٥ فِي هَذَا ٱلْيَوْمِ أَبْتَدِئُ أَجْعَلُ خَشْيَتَكَ وَخَوْفَكَ أَمَامَ وُجُوهِ ٱلشُّعُوبِ تَحْتَ كُلِّ ٱلسَّمَاءِ. ٱلَّذِينَ يَسْمَعُونَ خَبَرَكَ يَرْتَعِدُونَ وَيَجْزَعُونَ أَمَامَكَ.

26 Then I sent messengers out of the wildernes of Kedemoth vnto Sihon King of Heshbon, with wordes of peace, saying,

٢٦ «فَأَرْسَلْتُ رُسُلًا مِنْ بَرِّيَّةِ قَدِيمُوتَ إِلَى سِيحُونَ مَلِكِ حَشْبُونَ بِكَلَامِ سَلَامٍ قَائِلًا:

27 Let me passe through thy land: I will go by the hie way: I will neither turne vnto the right hand nor to the left.

٢٧ أَمُرُّ فِي أَرْضِكَ. أَسْلُكُ ٱلطَّرِيقَ ٱلطَّرِيقَ، لَا أَمِيلُ يَمِينًا وَلَا شِمَالًا.

28 Thou shalt sell me meate for money, for to eate, and shalt giue me water for money for to drinke: onely I will go through on my foote,

٢٨ طَعَامًا بِٱلْفِضَّةِ تَبِيعُنِي لِآكُلَ، وَمَاءً بِٱلْفِضَّةِ تُعْطِينِي لِأَشْرَبَ. أَمُرُّ بِرِجْلَيَّ فَقَطْ.

29 (As the children of Esau which dwell in Seir, and the Moabites which dwell in Ar, did vnto me) vntill I be come ouer Iorden, into the land which the Lord our God giueth vs.

٢٩ كَمَا فَعَلَ بِي بَنُو عِيسُو ٱلسَّاكِنُونَ فِي سِعِيرَ، وَٱلْمُوآبِيُّونَ ٱلسَّاكِنُونَ فِي عَارَ، إِلَى أَنْ أَعْبُرَ ٱلْأُرْدُنَّ إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلَّتِي أَعْطَانَا ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُنَا.

30 But Sihon the King of Heshbon would not let vs passe by him: for the Lord thy God had hardened his spirit, and made his heart obstinate, because hee would deliuer him into thine hand, as appeareth this day.

٣٠ لَكِنْ لَمْ يَشَأْ سِيحُونُ مَلِكُ حَشْبُونَ أَنْ يَدَعَنَا نَمُرَّ بِهِ، لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَكَ قَسَّى رُوحَهُ، وَقَوَّى قَلْبَهُ لِكَيْ يَدْفَعَهُ إِلَى يَدِكَ كَمَا فِي هَذَا ٱلْيَوْمِ.

31 And the Lord sayd vnto me, Beholde, I haue begun to giue Sihon and his land before thee: begin to possesse and inherite his land.

٣١ وَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِي: اُنْظُرْ. قَدِ ٱبْتَدَأْتُ أَدْفَعُ أَمَامَكَ سِيحُونَ وَأَرْضَهُ. ٱبْتَدِئْ تَمَلَّكْ حَتَّى تَمْتَلِكَ أَرْضَهُ.

32 Then came out Sihon to meete vs, him selfe with all his people to fight at Iahaz.

٣٢ فَخَرَجَ سِيحُونُ لِلِقَائِنَا هُوَ وَجَمِيعُ قَوْمِهِ لِلْحَرْبِ إِلَى يَاهَصَ،

33 But the Lord our God deliuered him into our power, and we smote him, and his sonnes, and all his people.

٣٣ فَدَفَعَهُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُنَا أَمَامَنَا، فَضَرَبْنَاهُ وَبَنِيهِ وَجَمِيعَ قَوْمِهِ.

34 And we tooke all his cities the same time, and destroyed euery citie, men, and women, and children: we let nothing remaine.

٣٤ وَأَخَذْنَا كُلَّ مُدُنِهِ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْوَقْتِ، وَحَرَّمْنَا مِنْ كُلِّ مَدِينَةٍ: ٱلرِّجَالَ وَٱلنِّسَاءَ وَٱلْأَطْفَالَ. لَمْ نُبْقِ شَارِدًا.

35 Onely the cattell we tooke to our selues, and the spoyle of the cities which we tooke,

٣٥ لَكِنَّ ٱلْبَهَائِمَ نَهَبْنَاهَا لِأَنْفُسِنَا، وَغَنِيمَةَ ٱلْمُدُنِ ٱلَّتِي أَخَذْنَا،

36 From Aroer, which is by the banke of the riuer of Arnon, and from the citie that is vpon the riuer, euen vnto Gilead: there was not one citie that escaped vs: for the Lord our God deliuered vp all before vs.

٣٦ مِنْ عَرُوعِيرَ ٱلَّتِي عَلَى حَافَةِ وَادِي أَرْنُونَ وَٱلْمَدِينَةِ ٱلَّتِي فِي ٱلْوَادِي، إِلَى جِلْعَادَ، لَمْ تَكُنْ قَرْيَةٌ قَدِ ٱمْتَنَعَتْ عَلَيْنَا. ٱلْجَمِيعُ دَفَعَهُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُنَا أَمَامَنَا.

37 Onely vnto the land of the children of Ammon thou camest not, nor vnto any place of the riuer Iabbok, nor vnto the cities in the mountaines, nor vnto whatsoeuer the Lord our God forbade vs.

٣٧ وَلَكِنَّ أَرْضَ بَنِي عَمُّونَ لَمْ نَقْرَبْهَا. كُلَّ نَاحِيَةِ وَادِي يَبُّوقَ وَمُدُنَ ٱلْجَبَلِ وَكُلَّ مَا أَوْصَى ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُنَا.
