Deuteronomy 2
1 Then turned we, and set forward towards the desert by way of the Red Sea, as Yahweh, spake unto me; and we encompassed Mount Seir many days.
Anyị laghachiri azụ chee ihu nʼọzara nʼụzọ gawara Osimiri Uhie, dịka Onyenwe anyị gwara m. Ọtụtụ afọ ka anyị nọ na-awagharị gburugburu ugwu Sia.
2 And Yahweh spake unto me, saying:
Mgbe ahụ, Onyenwe anyị sịrị m,
3 Long enough, have ye encompassed this mountain, —turn yourselves north, wards.
“Unu agbaala ala ugwu ugwu a gburugburu ogologo oge, cheenụ ihu nʼakụkụ ugwu.
4 And, the people, command thou saying, Ye are about to pass through the boundary of your brethren the sons of Esau, who are dwelling in Seir, —and should they be afraid of you, take ye good heed to yourselves:
Nye ụmụ Izrel iwu ndị a: ‘Unu ga-aga site nʼala ụmụnna unu ndị Edọm gafee. Ndị Edọm bụ ụmụ ụmụ Ịsọ, onye biri na Sia. Ha ga-atụ egwu mgbe ha nụrụ na unu ga-esi nʼala ha gafee, ma kpachapụnụ anya.
5 do not engage in strife with them, for I will not give you of their land, so much as place for the tread of a foot-sole, —for as a possession to Esau, have I given Mount Seir.
Unu akpasukwala ha ka ha lụsoo unu ọgụ, nʼihi na agaghị m enye unu ala ọbụla sitere nʼala ha, ọ bụladị ebe ga-ezuru unu ịzọkwasị ụkwụ unu. Enyela m Ịsọ ala niile nke ugwu Sia dịka nke aka ya.
6 Food, shall ye buy of them with silver so shall ye eat, —yea even water, shall ye buy of them with silver so shall ye drink.
Jirinụ ọlaọcha kwụọ ha ụgwọ nri ọbụla unu riri, jirikwanụ ọlaọcha kwụọ ha ụgwọ nʼihi mmiri ọbụla unu ṅụrụ.’”
7 For Yahweh thy God, hath blessed thee in all the work of thy hand, he hath considered thy traversing of this great desert, —these forty years, hath Yahweh thy God been with thee, thou hast lacked, nothing.
Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu agọziela unu nʼihe ọbụla bụ akaọrụ unu. O cheela nzọ ụkwụ unu nche iri afọ anọ ndị a niile unu wagharịrị nʼọzara ukwuu a. Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu anọnyerela unu, ọ dịkwaghị ihe kọrọ unu.
8 So we passed on, a way from our brethren the sons of Esau who dwell in Seir, from the way of the waste plain, from Elath, and from Ezion-geber, —and we turned and passed on by way of the desert of Moab.
Ya mere, anyị sitere nʼala ụmụnna anyị bụ ụmụ Ịsọ, ndị bi na Sia gafee. Anyị hapụkwara ụzọ Araba nke si Elat na Eziọn Geba, tụgharịa gawa elu elu ụzọ ọzara Moab.
9 And Yahweh said unto me—Do not lay siege to Moab, nor engage in strife with them in battle, —for I will not give unto thee of this land as a possession, for unto the sons of Lot, have I given Ar, as a possession.
Mgbe ahụ, Onyenwe anyị dọrọ anyị aka na ntị sị, “Unu esogbula maọbụ lụso ndị Moab ọgụ nʼihi na unu enweghị oke nʼala ha, nʼihi na enyela m ụmụ ụmụ Lọt ala Ar ka ọ bụrụ ihe nketa nke ha.”
10 the Emim, formerly dwelt therein, —a people great and many and tall, like the Anakim.
(Ndị biri nʼebe ahụ na mgbe gara aga bụ ndị Emim, agbụrụ ha gbara dimkpa dịkwa ọtụtụ nʼọnụọgụgụ. Ha toro ogologo dịka ndị Anak.
11 Giants, used, they also, to be accounted like the Anakim, —but the Moabites, called them Emim.
A na-eche na ha bụ ndị Refaim, dịka ndị Anak, ma ndị Moab na-akpọ ha ndị Emim.
12 And in Seir, dwelt the Horim aforetime, but, the sons of Esau, dispossessed them, and destroyed them from before them, and dwelt in their stead, —as did Israel unto the land of his own possession, which Yahweh had given unto them.
Ma mgbe gara aga ọ bụ ndị Hor bi na Sia, ma ndị Edọm, ụmụ Ịsọ, chụpụrụ ha. Ha bibiri ndị Hor bichikwaa ala ha, dịka ụmụ Izrel si bichie nʼala ahụ Onyenwe anyị nyere ha dịka ihe nketa.)
13 Now, arise, and pass ye over the ravine of Zered. So we passed over the ravine of Zered.
Onyenwe anyị gwara anyị okwu sị, “Ugbu a bilienụ, gafee Ndagwurugwu Zered.” Anyị bilikwara gafee.
14 Now, the days in which we journeyed from Kadesh-barnea, as far as where we crossed the ravine of Zered, were thirty-eight years, —until all the generation of the men of war were consumed out of the midst of the camp, as Yahweh had sworn unto them.
Iri afọ atọ na asatọ gasịrị, site na mgbe anyị hapụrụ Kadesh Banea ruo mgbe anyị gafere Ndagwurugwu Zered! Nʼoge a, ọgbọ ndị ikom ahụ niile na-alụ agha anwụchaala site nʼọmụma ụlọ ikwu, dịka Onyenwe anyị ṅụrụ ha nʼiyi.
15 Yea, even the hand of Yahweh was against them, to destroy them out of the midst of the camp, —until they were consumed.
E, aka Onyenwe anyị dị megide ha, ruo mgbe o mere ka ha niile nwụchaa site nʼọmụma ụlọ ikwu ahụ.
16 So it came to pass when all the men of war were consumed by dying, out of the midst of the people,
Mgbe onye nke ikpeazụ nʼime ndị niile a tozuru ije agha nwụchara,
17 then spake Yahweh unto me, saying:
Onyenwe anyị sịrị m,
18 Thou, art passing, to-day, the boundary of Moab even Ar;
“Taa, ụmụ Izrel ga-esi na Ar gafee oke ala ndị Moab.
19 so wilt thou draw near over against the sons of Ammon, do not thou besiege them neither engage in strife with them, —for I will not give of the land of the sons of Ammon unto thee as a possession, for unto the sons of Lot, have I given it as a possession.
Mgbe unu bara nʼala ndị Amọn, unu esogbula ha, unu alụsola ha ọgụ, nʼihi na agaghị m enye unu ala ndị Amọn. Enyela m ụmụ ụmụ Lọt ala ahụ dịka ihe onwunwe ha.”
20 A land of giants, used, that also, to be accounted, —giants, dwelt therein aforetime, but the Ammonites, called them Zamzummim:
Ndị bi nʼebe a na mbụ bụ ndị Refaim, ma ụmụ Amọn na-akpọ ha ndị Zamzum.
21 a people great and many and tall, like the Anakim, —but Yahweh destroyed them from before them, and they took their possessions, and dwelt in their stead:
Ha bụ agbụrụ dị ukwuu nʼọnụọgụgụ, siekwa ike nke ukwuu, ha toro ogologo dịka ụmụ Anak. Onyenwe anyị sitere nʼaka ndị Amọn laa ha nʼiyi, bụ ndị chụpụrụ ha ma bichie nʼobodo ha.
22 as he did for the sons of Esau, who are dwelling in Seir, —when he destroyed the Horim from before them, and they took their possessions and have dwelt in their stead, even unto this day.
Onyenwe anyị mekwara otu ihe ahụ nye ndị agbụrụ Ịsọ bụ ndị bi nʼugwu Sia mgbe ọ lara ndị Hor bụ ụzọ biri nʼebe ahụ nʼiyi. Ha chụpụrụ ha, bichie ala ha ruo taa.
23 The Avvim also, who dwelt in settlements as far as Gaza, Caphtorim, who were coming forth out of Caphtor, destroyed them, and dwelt in their stead.
Ebe ọzọkwa Onyenwe anyị mere ihe dị otu a bụ mgbe o mere ka ndị Kafto laa ndị Avim nʼiyi. Ha bichiri obodo nta niile ndị Avim nwere nke dị gburugburu ebe ahụ rukwaa Gaza.
24 Arise ye, set forward and cross over the ravine of Arnon, see! I have given into thy hand—Sihon king of Heshbon, the Amorite and his land, begin—take possession, —and engage in strife with him in battle.
Emesịa, Onyenwe anyị sịrị, “Gafeenụ ndagwurugwu dị warawara nke Anọn, baakwanụ nʼalaeze Saịhọn, onye Amọrị, eze obodo Heshbọn. Lụsonụ ya agha, bichiekwanụ nʼala ya nʼihi na enyefeela m ya bụ eze na ala ya nʼaka unu.
25 This day, will I begin to extend the dread of thee and the fear of thee over the face of the peoples under all the heavens, —who will hear the report of thee, then will they quake and writhe in pain because of thee.
Site taa gaa nʼihu, aga m etinye egwu na ụjọ nʼobi ndị niile bi nʼokpuru mbara eluigwe. Ha ga-anụ akụkọ unu tụọ oke egwu, maakwa jijiji nʼihi unu.”
26 So I sent messengers out of the desert of Kademoth, unto Sihon, king of Heshbon, —with words of peace saying:
Esitere m nʼọzara Kedemot zipụ ndị ozi, ka ha jekwuru Saịhọn, eze Heshbọn, zie ya ozi na anyị chọrọ udo, sị,
27 I would pass along through thy land, by the road, by the road, will I go, —I will not turn aside, to the right hand or to the left:
“Kwere ka anyị site nʼobodo gị gafee. Ọ bụ naanị nʼokporoụzọ ka anyị ga-anọ. Anyị agaghị atụgharị gaa nʼaka nri maọbụ nʼaka ekpe.
28 Food for silver, shalt thou sell me so will I eat, and water for silver, shalt thou let me have, so will I drink, —only I would pass through on my feet; —
Renye anyị ihe oriri anyị ga-eri na mmiri anyị ga-aṅụ nʼọnụ ahịa ọlaọcha. Naanị kweere ka anyị gabiga nʼụkwụ ala,
29 as the sons of Esau, who are dwelling in Seir, did to me, and the Moabites who are dwelling in Ar, —until that I pass over the Jordan, into the land which, Yahweh our God, is giving unto us.
dịka ụmụ Ịsọ, bụ ndị bi na Sia, nakwa ndị Moab bi nʼobodo Ar meere anyị, ruo mgbe anyị gafere Jọdan banye nʼala ahụ Onyenwe anyị Chineke anyị na-enye anyị.”
30 But Sihon king of Heshbon, was not willing, to let us pass along through it, —for Yahweh thy God had suffered him to make his spirit harsh and his heart bold, that he might give him into thy hand—(as [appeareth] this day).
Ma Saịhọn, eze Heshbọn, ekweghị ka anyị si nʼala ya gafee. Nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu mere ka mmụọ ya sie ike, meekwa ka o mesie obi ya ike, ka o si otu a nyefee ya nʼaka unu dịka ọ mere ugbu a.
31 Then said Yahweh unto me, See! I have begun to deliver up before thee Sihon and his land, —begin take possession, that thou mayest make a possession of his land.
Mgbe ahụ, Onyenwe anyị gwara m sị, “Lee, amalitela m iwere Saịhọn na obodo a nyefee unu nʼaka. Ngwanụ, malitenụ ibuso ya agha! Merienụ ya, nwetakwanụ ala ya.”
32 So then Sihon came out to meet us he, and all his people, to give battle at Jahaz.
Mgbe Saịhọn na ndị agha ya niile pụtara izute anyị nʼagha nʼebe a na-akpọ Jehaz,
33 And Yahweh our God delivered him up before us, —and we smote him and his sons, and all his people
Onyenwe anyị Chineke anyị nyefere ya nʼaka anyị. Anyị gburu ya, gbukwaa ụmụ ya ndị ikom niile, na ndị agha ya niile.
34 And we captured all his cities, at that time, and devoted to destruction every city of males, with the women and the little ones, —we left not remaining a survivor:
Nʼoge ahụ, anyị meriri obodo ya niile, bibiekwa ha niile kpamkpam, ma ndị ikom, ma ndị inyom, ma ụmụntakịrị. Anyị ahapụghị mmadụ onye ndụ.
35 only the cattle, made we our prey, —and the spoil of the cities which we captured.
Ma ihe ndị anyị bukọọrọ bụ naanị anụ ụlọ, na ngwongwo ndị ọzọ dị iche iche anyị si nʼobodo ndị anyị meriri kwata.
36 From Aroer, which is on the edge of the ravine of Arnon and the city that is in the ravine even as far as Gilead, there was not a fortress that proved too high for us, —the whole, did Yahweh our God deliver up before us.
Anyị lụgburu ndị niile bi nʼobodo dị site nʼAroea ruo nʼọnụ ndagwurugwu dị warawara nke Anọn, na site nʼetiti ndagwurugwu ahụ ruo Gilead. O nweghị obodo ọbụla rara anyị ahụ imeri, nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị Chineke nyefere ha niile nʼaka anyị.
37 Only unto the land of the sons of Ammon, didst thou not come near, —all the side of the Jabbok ravine, nor the cities of the hill country, nor any which Yahweh our God had forbidden to us.
Ma dịka usoro iwu Onyenwe anyị Chineke anyị si dị, anyị abanyeghị ala ndị Amọn ọbụla maọbụ ruokwa nʼala dị nʼakụkụ iyi Jabọk nso, maọbụ nʼobodo ndị ahụ niile dị nʼugwu.
