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.
| وَلَمَّا سَمِعَ ٱلْكَنْعَانِيُّ مَلِكُ عَرَادَ ٱلسَّاكِنُ فِي ٱلْجَنُوبِ أَنَّ إِسْرَائِيلَ جَاءَ فِي طَرِيقِ أَتَارِيمَ، حَارَبَ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَسَبَى مِنْهُمْ سَبْيًا. | ١ |
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."
| فَنَذَرَ إِسْرَائِيلُ نَذْرًا لِلرَّبِّ وَقَالَ: «إِنْ دَفَعْتَ هَؤُلَاءِ ٱلْقَوْمَ إِلَى يَدِي أُحَرِّمُ مُدُنَهُمْ». | ٢ |
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.
| فَسَمِعَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِقَوْلِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَدَفَعَ ٱلْكَنْعَانِيِّينَ، فَحَرَّمُوهُمْ وَمُدُنَهُمْ. فَدُعِيَ ٱسْمُ ٱلْمَكَانِ «حُرْمَةَ». | ٣ |
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.
| وَٱرْتَحَلُوا مِنْ جَبَلِ هُورٍ فِي طَرِيقِ بَحْرِ سُوفٍ لِيَدُورُوا بِأَرْضِ أَدُومَ، فَضَاقَتْ نَفْسُ ٱلشَّعْبِ فِي ٱلطَّرِيقِ. | ٤ |
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."
| وَتَكَلَّمَ ٱلشَّعْبُ عَلَى ٱللهِ وَعَلَى مُوسَى قَائِلِينَ: «لِمَاذَا أَصْعَدْتُمَانَا مِنْ مِصْرَ لِنَمُوتَ فِي ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ؟ لِأَنَّهُ لَا خُبْزَ وَلَا مَاءَ، وَقَدْ كَرِهَتْ أَنْفُسُنَا ٱلطَّعَامَ ٱلسَّخِيفَ». | ٥ |
6 The LORD sent fiery serpents among the people, and they bit the people; and many people of Israel died.
| فَأَرْسَلَ ٱلرَّبُّ عَلَى ٱلشَّعْبِ ٱلْحَيَّاتِ ٱلْمُحْرِقَةَ، فَلَدَغَتِ ٱلشَّعْبَ، فَمَاتَ قَوْمٌ كَثِيرُونَ مِنْ إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ٦ |
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.
| فَأَتَى ٱلشَّعْبُ إِلَى مُوسَى وَقَالُوا: «قَدْ أَخْطَأْنَا إِذْ تَكَلَّمْنَا عَلَى ٱلرَّبِّ وَعَلَيْكَ، فَصَلِّ إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ لِيَرْفَعَ عَنَّا ٱلْحَيَّاتِ». فَصَلَّى مُوسَى لِأَجْلِ ٱلشَّعْبِ. | ٧ |
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."
| فَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: «ٱصْنَعْ لَكَ حَيَّةً مُحْرِقَةً وَضَعْهَا عَلَى رَايَةٍ، فَكُلُّ مَنْ لُدِغَ وَنَظَرَ إِلَيْهَا يَحْيَا». | ٨ |
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.
| فَصَنَعَ مُوسَى حَيَّةً مِنْ نُحَاسٍ وَوَضَعَهَا عَلَى ٱلرَّايَةِ، فَكَانَ مَتَى لَدَغَتْ حَيَّةٌ إِنْسَانًا وَنَظَرَ إِلَى حَيَّةِ ٱلنُّحَاسِ يَحْيَا. | ٩ |
10 The children of Israel traveled, and camped in Oboth.
| وَٱرْتَحَلَ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ وَنَزَلُوا فِي أُوبُوتَ. | ١٠ |
11 They traveled from Oboth, and camped at Iyeabarim, in the wilderness which is before Moab, toward the sunrise.
| وَٱرْتَحَلُوا مِنْ أُوبُوتَ وَنَزَلُوا فِي عَيِّي عَبَارِيمَ فِي ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ، ٱلَّتِي قُبَالَةَ مُوآبَ إِلَى شُرُوقِ ٱلشَّمْسِ. | ١١ |
12 From there they traveled, and camped in the Valley of Zered.
| مِنْ هُنَاكَ ٱرْتَحَلُوا وَنَزَلُوا فِي وَادِي زَارَدَ. | ١٢ |
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.
| مِنْ هُنَاكَ ٱرْتَحَلُوا وَنَزَلُوا فِي عَبْرِ أَرْنُونَ ٱلَّذِي فِي ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ، خَارِجًا عَنْ تُخُمِ ٱلْأَمُورِيِّينَ. لِأَنَّ أَرْنُونَ هُوَ تُخْمُ مُوآبَ، بَيْنَ مُوآبَ وَٱلْأَمُورِيِّينَ. | ١٣ |
14 Therefore it is said in the Book of the Wars of the LORD, "Waheb in Suphah, the valleys of the Arnon,
| لِذَلِكَ يُقَالُ فِي كِتَابِ «حُرُوبِ ٱلرَّبِّ»: «وَاهِبٌ فِي سُوفَةَ وَأَوْدِيَةِ أَرْنُونَ | ١٤ |
15 the slope of the valleys that incline toward the dwelling of Ar, leans on the border of Moab."
| وَمَصَبِّ ٱلْأَوْدِيَةِ ٱلَّذِي مَالَ إِلَى مَسْكَنِ عَارَ، وَٱسْتَنَدَ إِلَى تُخُمِ مُوآبَ». | ١٥ |
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."
| وَمِنْ هُنَاكَ إِلَى بِئْرٍ. وَهِيَ ٱلْبِئْرُ حَيْثُ قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: «ٱجْمَعِ ٱلشَّعْبَ فَأُعْطِيَهُمْ مَاءً». | ١٦ |
17 Then sang Israel this song: "Spring up, well; sing to it:
| حِينَئِذٍ تَرَنَّمَ إِسْرَائِيلُ بِهَذَا ٱلنَّشِيدِ: «اِصْعَدِي أَيَّتُهَا ٱلْبِئْرُ! أَجِيبُوا لَهَا. | ١٧ |
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;
| بِئْرٌ حَفَرَهَا رُؤَسَاءُ، حَفَرَهَا شُرَفَاءُ ٱلشَّعْبِ، بِصَوْلَجَانٍ، بِعِصِيِّهِمْ». وَمِنَ ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ إِلَى مَتَّانَةَ، | ١٨ |
19 and from Mattanah to Nahaliel; and from Nahaliel to Bamoth;
| وَمِنْ مَتَّانَةَ إِلَى نَحْلِيئِيلَ، وَمِنْ نَحْلِيئِيلَ إِلَى بَامُوتَ، | ١٩ |
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.
| وَمِنْ بَامُوتَ إِلَى ٱلْجِوَاءِ ٱلَّتِي فِي صَحْرَاءِ مُوآبَ عِنْدَ رَأْسِ ٱلْفِسْجَةِ ٱلَّتِي تُشْرِفُ عَلَى وَجْهِ ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ. | ٢٠ |
21 Israel sent messengers to Sihon king of the Amorites, saying,
| وَأَرْسَلَ إِسْرَائِيلُ رُسُلًا إِلَى سِيحُونَ مَلِكِ ٱلْأَمُورِيِّينَ قَائِلًا: | ٢١ |
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."
| «دَعْنِي أَمُرَّ فِي أَرْضِكَ. لَا نَمِيلُ إِلَى حَقْلٍ وَلَا إِلَى كَرْمٍ وَلَا نَشْرَبُ مَاءَ بِئْرٍ. فِي طَرِيقِ ٱلْمَلِكِ نَمْشِي حَتَّى نَتَجَاوَزَ تُخُومَكَ». | ٢٢ |
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.
| فَلَمْ يَسْمَحْ سِيحُونُ لِإِسْرَائِيلَ بِٱلْمُرُورِ فِي تُخُومِهِ، بَلْ جَمَعَ سِيحُونُ جَمِيعَ قَوْمِهِ وَخَرَجَ لِلِقَاءِ إِسْرَائِيلَ إِلَى ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ، فَأَتَى إِلَى يَاهَصَ وَحَارَبَ إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ٢٣ |
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.
| فَضَرَبَهُ إِسْرَائِيلُ بِحَدِّ ٱلسَّيْفِ وَمَلَكَ أَرْضَهُ مِنْ أَرْنُونَ إِلَى يَبُّوقَ إِلَى بَنِي عَمُّونَ. لِأَنَّ تُخُمَ بَنِي عَمُّونَ كَانَ قَوِيًّا. | ٢٤ |
25 Israel took all these cities: and Israel lived in all the cities of the Amorites, in Heshbon, and in all its towns.
| فَأَخَذَ إِسْرَائِيلُ كُلَّ هَذِهِ ٱلْمُدُنِ، وَأَقَامَ إِسْرَائِيلُ فِي جَمِيعِ مُدُنِ ٱلْأَمُورِيِّينَ فِي حَشْبُونَ وَفِي كُلِّ قُرَاهَا. | ٢٥ |
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.
| لِأَنَّ حَشْبُونَ كَانَتْ مَدِينَةَ سِيحُونَ مَلِكِ ٱلْأَمُورِيِّينَ، وَكَانَ قَدْ حَارَبَ مَلِكَ مُوآبَ ٱلْأَوَّلَ وَأَخَذَ كُلَّ أَرْضِهِ مِنْ يَدِهِ حَتَّى أَرْنُونَ. | ٢٦ |
27 Therefore those who speak in proverbs say, "Come to Heshbon. Let the city of Sihon be built and established;
| لِذَلِكَ يَقُولُ أَصْحَابُ ٱلْأَمْثَالِ: «اِيتُوا إِلَى حَشْبُونَ فَتُبْنَى، وَتُصْلَحَ مَدِينَةُ سِيحُونَ. | ٢٧ |
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.
| لِأَنَّ نَارًا خَرَجَتْ مِنْ حَشْبُونَ، لَهِيبًا مِنْ قَرْيَةِ سِيحُونَ. أَكَلَتْ عَارَ مُوآبَ. أَهْلَ مُرْتَفَعَاتِ أَرْنُونَ. | ٢٨ |
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.
| وَيْلٌ لَكَ يَا مُوآبُ. هَلَكْتِ يَا أُمَّةَ كَمُوشَ. قَدْ صَيَّرَ بَنِيهِ هَارِبِينَ وَبَنَاتِهِ فِي ٱلسَّبْيِ لِمَلِكِ ٱلْأَمُورِيِّينَ سِيحُونَ. | ٢٩ |
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."
| لَكِنْ قَدْ رَمَيْنَاهُمْ. هَلَكَتْ حَشْبُونُ إِلَى دِيبُونَ. وَأَخْرَبْنَا إِلَى نُوفَحَ ٱلَّتِي إِلَى مِيدَبَا». | ٣٠ |
31 Thus Israel lived in the land of the Amorites.
| فَأَقَامَ إِسْرَائِيلُ فِي أَرْضِ ٱلْأَمُورِيِّينَ. | ٣١ |
32 Moses sent to spy out Jazer; and they took its towns, and drove out the Amorites who were there.
| وَأَرْسَلَ مُوسَى لِيَتَجَسَّسَ يَعْزِيرَ، فَأَخَذُوا قُرَاهَا وَطَرَدُوا ٱلْأَمُورِيِّينَ ٱلَّذِينَ هُنَاكَ. | ٣٢ |
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.
| ثُمَّ تَحَوَّلُوا وَصَعِدُوا فِي طَرِيقِ بَاشَانَ. فَخَرَجَ عُوجُ مَلِكُ بَاشَانَ لِلِقَائِهِمْ هُوَ وَجَمِيعُ قَوْمِهِ إِلَى ٱلْحَرْبِ فِي إِذْرَعِي. | ٣٣ |
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."
| فَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: «لَا تَخَفْ مِنْهُ لِأَنِّي قَدْ دَفَعْتُهُ إِلَى يَدِكَ مَعَ جَمِيعِ قَوْمِهِ وَأَرْضِهِ، فَتَفْعَلُ بِهِ كَمَا فَعَلْتَ بِسِيحُونَ مَلِكِ ٱلْأَمُورِيِّينَ ٱلسَّاكِنِ فِي حَشْبُونَ». | ٣٤ |
35 So they struck him, and his sons and all his people, until there was none left him remaining: and they possessed his land.
| فَضَرَبُوهُ وَبَنِيهِ وَجَمِيعَ قَوْمِهِ حَتَّى لَمْ يَبْقَ لَهُ شَارِدٌ، وَمَلَكُوا أَرْضَهُ. | ٣٥ |
