< Numbers 21 >

1 And he heard the Canaanite [the] king of Arad [who] dwelt the Negev that it had come Israel [the] way of the Atharim and he engaged in battle against Israel and he took captive - some of it captive[s].
Mgbe eze Kenan, bụ Arad, onye bi na Negev nụrụ na ndị Izrel na-agbaso ụzọ ahụ na-aga obodo Atarim, ọ chịkọtara ndị agha ya, pụkwuru ndị Izrel, lụso ha agha. Ọ dọtara ụfọdụ nʼime ha nʼagha.
2 And it vowed Israel a vow to Yahweh and it said certainly [if] you will give the people this in hand my and I will totally destroy cities their.
Mgbe ahụ, ndị Izrel kwere Onyenwe anyị nkwa sị, “Ọ bụrụ na ị ga-enyere anyị aka imeri eze Arad na ndị ya, anyị ga-ebibi obodo ha niile kpamkpam.”
3 And he listened Yahweh to [the] voice of Israel and he delivered up the Canaanite[s] and it totally destroyed them and cities their and someone called [the] name of the place Hormah.
Onyenwe anyị ṅara ntị nʼarịrịọ ha, nyere ha aka imeri ndị Kenan ahụ. Mgbe ahụ, ụmụ Izrel bibiri obodo ha niile, na ndị niile bi nʼime ya. Ya mere, aha a kpọrọ ebe ahụ niile bụ Homa.
4 And they set out from Hor the mountain [the] direction of [the] sea of reed[s] to go around [the] land of Edom and it became short [the] self of the people on the way.
Mgbe ahụ, ụmụ Izrel sitere nʼugwu Hor bilie ije ha, si ụzọ gawara Osimiri Uhie, ka ha nwee ike gaa gburugburu ala ndị Edọm. Ma ndị Izrel enweghị ntachiobi oge niile ha nọ nʼije a.
5 And it spoke the people against God and against Moses why? have you brought up us from Egypt to die in the wilderness for there not [is] food and there not [is] water and self our it loathes the food worthless.
Ha kwuru okwu megide Chineke na Mosis sị, “Gịnị mere i ji site nʼala Ijipt kpọpụta anyị ka anyị nwụsịa nʼọzara a? Lee na nri ọbụla adịghị nʼebe a, mmiri ọṅụṅụ adịghịkwa, ike iri mánà a na-enweghị isi agwụkwala anyị.”
6 And he sent Yahweh among the people the snakes the saraphs and they bit the people and it died a people numerous from Israel.
Ya mere, Onyenwe anyị zitere agwọ ọjọọ na-ata ata nʼetiti ha. Agwọ ndị a tagbukwara ọtụtụ nʼime ụmụ Izrel.
7 And it came the people to Moses and they said we have sinned for we have spoken against Yahweh and against you pray to Yahweh so may he remove from on us the snake[s] and he prayed Moses for the people.
Mgbe ahụ, ndị Izrel bịakwutere Mosis sị ya, “Anyị emehiela, nʼihi na anyị ekwuluola Onyenwe anyị, kwulukwaa gị onwe gị. Biko rịọrọ anyị Onyenwe anyị ka o wezugara anyị agwọ ọjọọ ndị a.” Mosis rịọrọ arịrịọ nʼihi ha.
8 And he said Yahweh to Moses make for yourself a saraph and put it on a standard and it will be every [one who] is bitten and he will see it and he will live.
Mgbe ahụ, Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis okwu sị ya, “Kpụọ otu agwọ yiri agwọ ndị a. Kwụba ya nʼọnụ ogologo osisi nke ị ga-amanye nʼala ebe mmadụ niile ga-ahụ ya anya. Onye ọbụla agwọ ọjọọ a tara ga-adị ndụ ma ọ bụrụ na ọ ga-ewelite anya ya elu lekwasị agwọ ahụ ị kwụbara nʼelu osisi ahụ.”
9 And he made Moses a snake of bronze and he put it on the standard and it was if it had bitten the snake anyone and he looked to [the] snake of bronze and he lived.
Ya mere, Mosis ji bronz kpụta agwọ yiri otu nʼime agwọ ndị ahụ, tinye ya nʼọnụ osisi dị ogologo. Onye ọbụla kwa agwọ ahụ tara nke welitere anya ya elu lee agwọ bronz ahụ anya, dịkwara ndụ.
10 And they set out [the] people of Israel and they encamped in Oboth.
Ụmụ Izrel biliri njem, manye ụlọ ikwu ha na Obot.
11 And they set out from Oboth and they encamped at Iye Abarim in the wilderness which [is] on [the] face of Moab from [the] rising of the sun.
Ha sikwa nʼObot bilie njem, maa ụlọ ikwu ha na Iye Abarim, nʼọzara ahụ nke chere ihu nʼobodo Moab, nʼụzọ ọwụwa anyanwụ.
12 From there they set out and they encamped in [the] wadi of Zered.
Ha si nʼebe ahụ bilie njem, manye ụlọ ikwu ha na Ndagwurugwu Zered.
13 From there they set out and they encamped from [the] other side of Arnon which [is] in the wilderness which goes out from [the] border of the Amorite[s] that Arnon [is] [the] border of Moab between Moab and between the Amorite[s].
Ha sitekwara nʼebe ahụ bilie njem, maa ụlọ ikwu ha nʼofe iyi Anọn nke dị nʼọzara ruru nʼoke ala ndị Amọrait. Iyi Anọn bụ oke ala Moab, nʼetiti ndị Moab na ndị Amọrait.
14 There-fore it is said in [the] book of [the] wars of Yahweh Waheb in Suphah and the wadis Arnon.
Nʼihi nke a, nʼAkwụkwọ Agha dị iche iche nke Onyenwe anyị na-asị, “Waheb nʼime Sufa ya na ndagwurugwu niile Anọn
15 And [the] slope of the wadis which it extends to [the] dwelling of Ar and it leans to [the] border of Moab.
na mgbadata ndagwurugwu ndị ahụ nke gbasapụrụ ruo nʼebe Ar dị, nke tọgbọrọ nʼoke ala Moab.”
16 And from there Beer towards that [is] the well which he said Yahweh to Moses gather the people so let me give to them water.
Mgbe ahụ, ụmụ Izrel niile biliri njem bịarute Bịa bụ nʼolulu mmiri ahụ Onyenwe anyị nyere Mosis iwu sị, “Kpọkọtaa ndị Izrel niile, nʼihi na m na-aga inye ha mmiri.”
17 Then it sang Israel the song this spring up O well sing of it.
Mgbe ahụ, ụmụ Izrel bụrụ abụ a. “Sọpụta gị olulu mmiri! Bụọnụ abụ banyere mmiri a!
18 A well [which] they dug it [the] leaders [which] they dug it [the] noble [people] of the people with a ruler's staff with staffs their and from [the] wilderness Mattanah.
Olulu mmiri ụmụ ndị eze gwuru nke ndị ndu anyị doziri. Mkpara eze ha na mkpara ha, ka ha ji gwuo ya.” Emesịa, ha hapụrụ ọzara ahụ, gaa nʼihu ruo nʼobodo Matana.
19 And from Mattanah Nahaliel and from Nahaliel Bamoth.
Ha si Matana jeruo Nahaliel, si Nahaliel jeruo Bamot.
20 And from Bamoth the valley which [is] in [the] region of Moab [the] top of Pisgah and it looked down over [the] face of the desolate place.
Sitekwa Bamot rute na ndagwurugwu ahụ dị nʼọhịa Moab, ruo nʼugwu Pisga, nke chere ihu nʼala ahụ tọgbọrọ nʼefu.
21 And it sent Israel messengers to Sihon [the] king of the Amorite[s] saying.
Ndị Izrel zipụrụ ndị ozi ka ha jekwuru Saịhọn, eze ndị Amọrait, sị ya,
22 Let me pass in land your not we will turn aside in a field and in a vineyard not we will drink water of a well on [the] way of the king we will go until that we will pass through territory your.
“Biko, kwere ka anyị site nʼobodo gị gafee. Anyị agaghị atụgharị banye nʼime ala ubi gị maọbụ nʼubi vaịnị, maọbụ ṅụọ mmiri site nʼolulu mmiri ọbụla dị nʼala gị. Anyị ga-eje nʼokporoụzọ eze tutu ruo mgbe anyị ga-agabiga oke ala gị.”
23 And not he permitted Sihon Israel to pass in territory his and he gathered Sihon all people his and he went out to meet Israel the wilderness towards and he came Jahaz towards and he engaged in battle against Israel.
Ma Saịhọn ekweghị na ụmụ Izrel ga-esi nʼoke ala ya gafee. Ọ chịkọtara ndị agha ya niile, zọpụ ije ibu agha megide ndị Izrel nʼime ọzara ahụ. Mgbe o rutere Jehaz, ọ lụsoro Izrel agha.
24 And it struck him Israel to [the] mouth of [the] sword and it took possession of land his from Arnon to Jabbok to [the] descendants of Ammon for [was] strong [the] border of [the] descendants of Ammon.
Ma Izrel jiri mma agha gbuo ya. Nwetara onwe ha ala ya, site nʼiyi Anọn ruo nʼiyi Jabọk, gamiekwa rute nʼoke ala ha na ndị Amọn, ha kwụsịrị nʼihi nʼoke ala ndị Amọn siri ike karịa.
25 And it took Israel all the cities these and it dwelt Israel in all [the] cities of the Amorite[s] in Heshbon and in all daughters its.
Ndị Izrel lụgburu obodo niile nke ndị Amọrait bichie nʼime ha, tinyere Heshbọn na obodo nta niile gbara ya gburugburu.
26 For Heshbon [was] [the] city of Sihon [the] king of the Amorite[s] it and he he had waged war against [the] king of Moab former and he had taken all land his from hand his to Arnon.
Heshbọn bụ isi obodo Saịhọn, eze ndị Amọrait onye busoro eze naara achị Moab agha dọta ala ya niile nʼagha ruo Anọn.
27 There-fore they say those [who] speak proverbs come Heshbon let it be rebuilt and it may be established [the] city of Sihon.
Ọ bụ nke a mere ndị na-arọ abụ ji kwuo sị, “Bịa na Heshbọn ka e wukwaa ya, ka e mee ka isi obodo eze Saịhọn guzosie ike.
28 For fire it went out from Heshbon flame from [the] town of Sihon it consumed Ar of Moab [the] citizens of [the] high places of Arnon.
“Nʼihi na ọkụ esitela na Heshbọn pụọ. Ire ọkụ esitela nʼobodo ukwu Saịhọn, rechapụ obodo Ar, nke dị na Moab, ndị nwe ebe niile dị elu nke Anọn.
29 Woe! to you O Moab you have perished O people of Chemosh he has made sons his fugitives and daughters his in captivity of [the] king of [the] Amorite[s] Sihon.
Ahụhụ dịrị gị Moab! Ndị a lara nʼiyi ka unu bụ, unu ndị Kemosh. Ụmụ ya ndị ikom aghọọla ndị na-enweghị ebe obibi. A dọtala ụmụ ndị inyom nʼagha, nye Saịhọn eze ndị Amọrait.
30 And we shot at them it has perished Heshbon to Dibon and we have devastated to Nophah which [is] to Medeba.
“Ma anyị ebibiela ha, bibie Heshbọn ruo rịị na Dibọn, bibie ha ruo Nofa, ruokwa rịị Medeba.”
31 And it dwelt Israel in [the] land of the Amorite[s].
Ya mere, ụmụ Izrel bichiri nʼala ndị Amọrait.
32 And he sent Moses to spy out Jazer and they captured daughters its (and it dispossessed *Q(K)*) the Amorite[s] who [was] there.
Emesịa, Mosis zipụrụ ndị nnyopụta ka ha ga nyochaa Jeza. Ụmụ Izrel tigburu obodo niile dị gburugburu ya chụpụkwa ndị Amọrait bi nʼebe ahụ.
33 And they turned and they went up [the] direction of Bashan and he went out Og [the] king of Bashan to meet them he and all people his for battle Edrei.
Mgbe ahụ, ha chigharịrị gbagoo nʼụzọ gawara Bashan. Ma Ọg, eze Bashan, na ndị agha ya niile biliri chịrị agha pụọ izute ha na Edrei.
34 And he said Yahweh to Moses may not you fear him for in hand your I have given him and all people his and land his and you will do to him just as you did to Sihon [the] king of the Amorite[s] who [was] dwelling in Heshbon.
Ma Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis okwu, sị, “Atụla ya egwu nʼihi na ewerela m ya na ndị agha ya niile, na ala ya, nyefee gị nʼaka. Mee ya ihe i mere Saịhọn eze ndị Amọrait onyeisi obodo ya bụ Heshbọn.”
35 And they struck down him and sons his and all people his until not he had left to him a survivor and they took possession of land his.
Ya mere, ha gburu ya, tinyere ụmụ ya na ndị agha ya niile, na-ahapụghị onye ọbụla ndụ nye ha. Ha nwetakwara ala ha, biri nʼime ya.
