Numbers 21
1 When the Canaanite king of Arad who lived in the Negev heard that Israel came by the way of Atharim, then he fought against Israel, and took some of them captive.
Quod cum audisset Chananæus rex Arad, qui habitabat ad meridiem, venisse scilicet Israel per exploratorum viam, pugnavit contra illum, et victor existens, duxit ex eo prædam.
2 Israel vowed a vow to the LORD, and said, "If you will indeed deliver this people into my hand, then I will utterly destroy their cities."
At Israel voto se Domino obligans, ait: Si tradideris populum istum in manu mea, delebo urbes eius.
3 The LORD listened to the voice of Israel, and delivered up the Canaanites; and they utterly destroyed them and their cities: and the name of the place was called Hormah.
Exaudivitque Dominus preces Israel, et tradidit Chananæum, quem ille interfecit subversis urbibus eius: et vocavit nomen loci illius Horma, id est, anathema.
4 They traveled from Mount Hor by the way to the Red Sea, to compass the land of Edom: and the soul of the people was much discouraged because of the way.
Profecti sunt autem et de monte Hor, per viam, quæ ducit ad Mare rubrum, ut circumirent terram Edom. Et tædere cœpit populum itineris ac laboris:
5 The people spoke against God, and against Moses, "Why have you brought us up out of Egypt to die in the wilderness? For there is no bread, and there is no water; and our soul loathes this light bread."
locutusque contra Deum et Moysen, ait: Cur eduxisti nos de Ægypto, ut moreremur in solitudine? Deest panis, non sunt aquæ: anima nostra iam nauseat super cibo isto levissimo.
6 The LORD sent fiery serpents among the people, and they bit the people; and many people of Israel died.
Quamobrem misit Dominus in populum ignitos serpentes, ad quorum plagas et mortes plurimorum,
7 The people came to Moses, and said, "We have sinned, because we have spoken against the LORD, and against you. Pray to the LORD, that he take away the serpents from us." Moses prayed for the people.
venerunt ad Moysen, atque dixerunt: Peccavimus, quia locuti sumus contra Dominum et te: ora ut tollat a nobis serpentes. Oravitque Moyses pro populo,
8 The LORD said to Moses, "Make a fiery serpent, and set it on a standard: and it shall happen, that everyone who is bitten, when he sees it, shall live."
et locutus est Dominus ad eum: Fac serpentem æneum, et pone eum pro signo: qui percussus aspexerit eum, vivet.
9 Moses made a serpent of bronze, and set it on the standard: and it happened, that if a serpent had bitten any man, when he looked to the serpent of bronze, he lived.
Fecit ergo Moyses SERPENTEM ÆNEUM, et posuit eum pro signo: quem cum percussi aspicerent, sanabantur.
10 The children of Israel traveled, and camped in Oboth.
Profectique filii Israel castrametati sunt in Oboth.
11 They traveled from Oboth, and camped at Iyeabarim, in the wilderness which is before Moab, toward the sunrise.
Unde egressi fixere tentoria in Ieabarim, in solitudine, quæ respicit Moab contra orientalem plagam.
12 From there they traveled, and camped in the Valley of Zered.
Et inde moventes, venerunt ad Torrentem Zared.
13 From there they traveled, and camped on the other side of the Arnon, which is in the wilderness, that comes out of the border of the Amorites: for the Arnon is the border of Moab, between Moab and the Amorites.
Quem relinquentes castrametati sunt contra Arnon, quæ est in deserto, et prominet in finibus Amorrhæi. siquidem Arnon terminus est Moab, dividens Moabitas et Amorrhæos.
14 Therefore it is said in the Book of the Wars of the LORD, "Waheb in Suphah, the valleys of the Arnon,
Unde dicitur in libro bellorum Domini: Sicut fecit in Mari rubro, sic faciet in torrentibus Arnon.
15 the slope of the valleys that incline toward the dwelling of Ar, leans on the border of Moab."
Scopuli torrentium inclinati sunt, ut requiescerent in Ar, et recumberent in finibus Moabitarum.
16 From there they traveled to Beer: that is the well of which the LORD said to Moses, "Gather the people together, and I will give them water."
Ex eo loco apparuit puteus, super quo locutus est Dominus ad Moysen: Congrega populum, et dabo ei aquam.
17 Then sang Israel this song: "Spring up, well; sing to it:
Tunc cecinit Israel carmen istud: Ascendat puteus. Concinebant:
18 the well, which the princes dug, which the nobles of the people dug, with the scepter, and with their staffs." From the wilderness they traveled to Mattanah;
Puteus, quem foderunt principes, et paraverunt duces multitudinis in datore legis, et in baculis suis. De solitudine, Matthana.
19 and from Mattanah to Nahaliel; and from Nahaliel to Bamoth;
De Matthana in Nahaliel: de Nahaliel, in Bamoth.
20 and from Bamoth to the valley that is in the field of Moab, to the top of Pisgah, which looks down on the desert.
De Bamoth, vallis est in regione Moab, in vertice Phasga, quod respicit contra desertum.
21 Israel sent messengers to Sihon king of the Amorites, saying,
Misit autem Israel nuncios ad Sehon regem Amorrhæorum, dicens:
22 "Let me pass through your land: we will not turn aside into field, or into vineyard; we will not drink of the water of the wells: we will go by the king's highway, until we have passed your border."
Obsecro ut transire mihi liceat per terram tuam: non declinabimus in agros et vineas, non bibemus aquas ex puteis, via regia gradiemur, donec transeamus terminos tuos.
23 Sihon would not allow Israel to pass through his border: but Sihon gathered all his people together, and went out against Israel into the wilderness, and came to Jahaz; and he fought against Israel.
Qui concedere noluit ut transiret Israel per fines suos: quin potius exercitu congregato, egressus est obviam in desertum, et venit in Iasa, pugnavitque contra eum.
24 Israel struck him with the edge of the sword, and possessed his land from the Arnon to the Jabbok, even to the people of Ammon; for the border of the people of Ammon was strong.
A quo percussus est in ore gladii, et possessa est terra eius ab Arnon usque Ieboc, et filios Ammon: quia forti præsidio tenebantur termini Ammonitarum.
25 Israel took all these cities: and Israel lived in all the cities of the Amorites, in Heshbon, and in all its towns.
Tulit ergo Israel omnes civitates eius, et habitavit in urbibus Amorrhæi, in Hesebon scilicet, et viculis eius.
26 For Heshbon was the city of Sihon the king of the Amorites, who had fought against the former king of Moab, and taken all his land out of his hand, even to the Arnon.
Urbs Hesebon fuit Sehon regis Amorrhæi, qui pugnavit contra regem Moab: et tulit omnem terram, quæ ditionis illius fuerat, usque Arnon.
27 Therefore those who speak in proverbs say, "Come to Heshbon. Let the city of Sihon be built and established;
Idcirco dicitur in Proverbio: Venite in Hesebon, ædificetur, et construatur civitas Sehon:
28 for a fire has gone out of Heshbon, a flame from the city of Sihon. It has devoured Ar of Moab, swallowed up the high places of the Arnon.
Ignis egressus est de Hesebon, flamma de oppido Sehon, et devoravit Ar Moabitarum, et habitatores excelsorum Arnon.
29 Woe to you, Moab. You are undone, people of Chemosh. He has given his sons as fugitives, and his daughters into captivity, to Sihon king of the Amorites.
Væ tibi Moab, peristi popule Chamos. Dedit filios eius in fugam, et filias in captivitatem regi Amorrhæorum Sehon.
30 And we shot at them. Heshbon has perished as far as Dibon. And we have laid waste as far as Nophah, which reaches to Medeba."
Iugum ipsorum disperiit ad Hesebon usque Dibon, lassi pervenerunt in Nophe, et usque Medaba.
31 Thus Israel lived in the land of the Amorites.
Habitavit itaque Israel in Terra Amorrhæi.
32 Moses sent to spy out Jazer; and they took its towns, and drove out the Amorites who were there.
Misitque Moyses qui explorarent Iazer: cuius ceperunt viculos, et possederunt habitatores.
33 They turned and went up by the way of Bashan: and Og the king of Bashan went out against them, he and all his people, to battle at Edrei.
Verteruntque se, et ascenderunt per viam Basan, et occurrit eis Og rex Basan cum omni populo suo, pugnaturus in Edrai.
34 The LORD said to Moses, "Do not fear him: for I have delivered him into your hand, and all his people, and his land; and you shall do to him as you did to Sihon king of the Amorites, who lived at Heshbon."
Dixitque Dominus ad Moysen: Ne timeas eum, quia in manu tua tradidi illum, et omnem populum, ac terram eius: faciesque illi sicut fecisti Sehon regi Amorrhæorum habitatori Hesebon.
35 So they struck him, and his sons and all his people, until there was none left him remaining: and they possessed his land.
Percusserunt igitur et hunc cum filiis suis, universumque populum eius usque ad internecionem, et possederunt terram illius.
