< Numbers 21 >

1 And the Canaanite, king of Arad, dwelling in the south, hears that Israel has come the way of the Atharim, and he fights against Israel, and takes [some] of them captive.
Ke tokosra lun acn Arad, su oan layen eir in acn Canaan, el lohngak lah mwet Israel elos tuku sun acn Atharim, el som mweunelos ac sruokya kutu selos.
2 And Israel vows a vow to YHWH and says, “If You certainly give this people into my hand, then I have devoted their cities”;
Na mwet Israel elos orala sie wulela na ku nu sin LEUM GOD: “Kom fin lela kut in kutangla mwet inge, kut ac kisakunuloswot nu sum oayapa siti selos, ac kut ac fah kunauselosla.”
3 and YHWH listens to the voice of Israel and gives up the Canaanite, and he devotes them and their cities, and calls the name of the place Hormah.
LEUM GOD El lohngolos ac kasrelos kutangla mwet Canaan. Ouinge mwet Israel arulana sukelosla ac siti selos, ac sang inen acn sac Hormah.
4 And they journey from Mount Hor, the way of the Red Sea, to go around the land of Edom, and the soul of the people is short in the way,
Mwet Israel som liki Fineol Hor, ac ut ke inkanek ma som nu ke Meoa Srusra, tuh elos in ut na sisken facl sin mwet Edom. Tusruktu ke elos srak fahsr, mwet uh semutengla
5 and the people speak against God and against Moses, “Why have you brought us up out of Egypt to die in a wilderness? For there is no bread, and there is no water, and our soul has been weary of this light bread.”
ac kaskas lain God ac Moses. Elos torkaskas ac fahk, “Efu kom ku uskutme liki acn Egypt kut in tuh misa in acn mwesis se inge, yen wanginna mongo ac kof we? Kut tasak ke mwe mongo koluk inge!”
6 And YHWH sends the burning serpents among the people, and they bite the people, and many people of Israel die;
Na LEUM GOD El supwala serpent pwasin nu inmasrlon mwet uh, ac mwet Israel puspis ngalnguli ac misa.
7 and the people come to Moses and say, “We have sinned, for we have spoken against YHWH and against you; pray to YHWH that He turns the serpent aside from us”; and Moses prays in behalf of the people.
Ac mwet uh tuku nu yorol Moses ac fahk, “Kut orekma koluk ke kut kaskas lain LEUM GOD ac lain kom. Pre nu sin LEUM GOD Elan usla serpent inge.” Ke ma inge Moses el pre ke mwet uh.
8 And YHWH says to Moses, “Make a burning [serpent] for yourself, and set it on an ensign; and it has been, everyone who is bitten and has seen it—he has lived.”
Na LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Moses elan orala soko serpent osra, ac likiya mutun soko sak ah, tuh kutena mwet su ngalnguli fin ngetak nu kac, elos fah moul ac tia misa.
9 And Moses makes a serpent of bronze, and sets it on the ensign, and it has been, if the serpent has bitten any man, and he has looked expectingly to the serpent of bronze—he has lived.
Ouinge Moses el orala soko serpent ke bronze ac likiya fin soko sak. Na kutena mwet su ngalnguli, elos ac ngetak nu ke serpent bronze soko ah, ac moul.
10 And the sons of Israel journey and encamp in Oboth.
Mwet Israel elos sifil mukuiyak ac tulokunak lohm nuknuk selos in acn Oboth.
11 And they journey from Oboth and encamp in Ije-Abarim, in the wilderness that [is] on the front of Moab, at the rising of the sun.
Toko elos som liki acn sac, ac tulokunak nien aktuktuk selos ke mahnum lun Abarim in acn mwesis kutulap in facl Moab.
12 From there they have journeyed and encamp in the Valley of Zared.
Na elos sifilpa mukuiyak liki acn we ac aktuktuk ke infahlfal Zered.
13 From there they have journeyed and encamp beyond Arnon, which [is] in the wilderness which is coming out of the border of the Amorite, for Arnon [is] the border of Moab, between Moab and the Amorite;
Elos sifilpa mukuiyak liki acn we ac tuku nu layen epang in Infacl Arnon ac aktuktuk we, ke yen mwesis se su fahla nwe ke facl sin mwet Amor. (Infacl Arnon pa masrol lun facl sin mwet Moab ac mwet Amor.)
14 therefore it is said in [the] scroll of the Wars of YHWH: “Waheb in Suphah, And the brooks of Arnon;
Pa sis [Book In Mweun Lun] LEUM GOD sramsramkin “...siti srisrik Waheb ke ipin acn lun Suphah, ac infahlfal uh, ac Infacl Arnon,
15 And the spring of the brooks, Which turned aside to the dwelling of Ar, And has leaned to the border of Moab.”
ac acn oatu ke infahlfal se ma fahla nwe ke siti srisrik Ar, ac suwosang nwe ke masrol lun acn Moab.”
16 And from there [they journeyed] to Beer; it [is] the well [concerning] which YHWH said to Moses, “Gather the people, and I give water to them.”
Liki acn we elos som na nwe ke sie acn pangpang Lufin Kof, acn se ma LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Moses, “Usani mwet uh nu sie, ac nga ac fah sang kof nu selos.”
17 Then Israel sings this song: “Spring up, O well, Let all answer to it!
In pacl sac mwet Israel uh yuk on soko inge: “Lufin kof uh, unonak; Kut ac fah onkakin kom ke soko on.
18 A well—princes have dug it, Nobles of the people have prepared it, With the lawgiver, with their staffs.” And from the wilderness [they journeyed] to Mattanah,
Lufin kof pukpukyak sin leum uh, Ac sin mwet kol lun mwet uh; Pukpukyak ke soko scepter lun tokosra, Oayapa ke sikal lun mwet kol lalos.” Elos mukuiyak liki yen mwesis nu Mattanah,
19 and from Mattanah to Nahaliel, and from Nahaliel to Bamoth,
ac liki acn we elos som na nwe Nahaliel, ac liki acn Nahaliel me nu Bamoth,
20 and from Bamoth, in the valley which [is] in the field of Moab, [to] the top of Pisgah, which has looked on the front of the wilderness.
ac liki acn Bamoth nu infahlfal in acn lun mwet Moab, ye mangon eol Pisgah, su oan ngeta nu fin acn mwesis.
21 And Israel sends messengers to Sihon king of the Amorite, saying,
Na mwet Israel supwala mwet utuk kas nu sel Sihon, tokosra lun mwet Amor, ac fahk:
22 “Let me pass through your land, we do not turn aside into a field or into a vineyard; we do not drink waters of a well; we go in the king’s way until we pass over your border.”
“Nunak munas, lela nu sesr in fahsr sasla in acn sum. Kut, ac cow natusr, fah tia kuhfla liki inkanek lulap in utyak nu in ima lom ku ima in grape sunom, ac kut ac fah tia nim kof ke lufin kof lowos uh. Kut ac fahsrna fin inkanek lulap ah, nwe ke kut alukela facl sum uh.”
23 And Sihon has not permitted Israel to pass through his border, and Sihon gathers all his people, and comes out to meet Israel in the wilderness, and comes to Jahaz, and fights against Israel.
Tusruktu Tokosra Sihon el tiana fuhlela mwet Israel in fahla fin acn sel. El orani un mwet mweun lal ac illa som nu Jahaz in acn mwesis, ac mweuni mwet Israel.
24 And Israel strikes him by the mouth of the sword, and possesses his land from Arnon to Jabbok—to the sons of Ammon; for the border of the sons of Ammon [is] strong.
Tusruktu mwet Israel elos onela mwet puspis sin mwet lokoalok lalos ke mweun sac, ac sruokya acn selos, mutawauk ke Infacl Arnon nwe ke Infacl Jabbok layen epang, aok nwe ke sun masrol lun mwet Ammon uh, mweyen masrol se ingan musaiyukla arulana ku!
25 And Israel takes all these cities, and Israel dwells in all the cities of the Amorite, in Heshbon and in all its villages;
Na mwet Israel uh kutangla siti nukewa sin mwet Amor, weang Heshbon ac inkul nukewa ma oan apkuran nu we, na elos oakwuki we.
26 for Heshbon is a city of Sihon king of the Amorite, and he has fought against the former king of Moab, and takes all his land out of his hand as far as Arnon;
Heshbon pa capital siti lal Tokosra Sihon lun mwet Amor, su tuh mweun lain tokosra lun mwet Moab meet, ac eisla acn lal nukewa fahla na nwe Infacl Arnon.
27 therefore those using allegories say: “Enter Heshbon, Let the city of Sihon be built and ready,
Pa oru mwet ma yuk pas uh onkakin mu, “Fahsru nu Heshbon, siti sel Tokosra Sihon! Kut kena liye in sifilpa musaiyukyak ac akwoyeyukla.
28 For fire has gone out from Heshbon, A flame from the city of Sihon, It has consumed Ar of Moab, Owners of the high places of Arnon.
Sie pacl ah, in siti se inge Heshbon, Un mwet mweun lal Sihon illa oana sie e. Elos kunausla siti Ar in acn Moab Ac sukela inging sisken infacl Arnon.
29 Woe to you, O Moab, You have perished, O people of Chemosh! He has given his sons [as] fugitives, And his daughters into captivity, To Sihon king of the Amorite!
We nu suwos, mwet Moab! Kowos su alu nu sin Chemosh, kowos arulana musalla! God lowos uh oru tuh mukul we uh in mwet kakaing, Ac mutan we elos mwet sruoh lal Tokosra Sihon lun mwet Amor.
30 And we shoot them; Heshbon has perished as far as Dibon, And we make desolate as far as Nophah, Which [is] as far as Medeba.”
Tusruktu fwilin tulik natulos kunausyukla, Mutawauk Heshbon lac na nwe Dibon, Liki acn Nashim nwe Nophah, apkuran nu Medeba.”
31 And Israel dwells in the land of the Amorite,
Ouinge mwet Israel oakwuki in acn lun mwet Amor,
32 and Moses sends to spy out Jaazer, and they capture its villages, and dispossess the Amorite who [is] there,
ac Moses el supwala kutu mwet kalngeyuk nu ke siti Jazer in konauk lah elos ac mweuni fuka acn we. Mwet Israel elos sruokya siti sac wi inkul nukewa ma oan apkuran nu we, ac lusak mwet Amor su muta we.
33 and turn and go up the way of Bashan, and Og king of Bashan comes out to meet them, he and all his people, to battle [at] Edrei.
Toko mwet Israel forla ac ut ke inkanek nu Bashan, ac tokosra Og lun Bashan el illa us un mwet mweun lal in mweunelos in acn Edrei.
34 And YHWH says to Moses, “Do not fear him, for into your hand I have given him, and all his people, and his land, and you have done to him as you have done to Sihon king of the Amorite, who is dwelling in Heshbon.”
LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Moses, “Nik kom sangeng sel. Nga ac oru tuh kom in kutanulla, ac mwet lal nukewa ac acn sel. Oru nu sel oana ma kom tuh oru nu sel Sihon, tokosra lun mwet Amor, su leumi acn Heshbon.”
35 And they strike him, and his sons, and all his people, until he has no remnant left to him, and they possess his land.
Ouinge mwet Israel elos unilya Tokosra Og, ac wen natul ac mwet lal nukewa — wangin mwet painmoulla — na elos oakwuki in acn sel.
