Numbers 21
1 And whanne Chananei, the kyng of Arad, that dwellide at the south, hadde herd this, that is, that Israel cam bi the weye of aspieris, he fauyt ayens hem; and Chananei was ouercomere and ledde pray of Israel.
Aradi mfalme wa Wakanaani, aliyekuwa akiishi Negebu, aliposikia kuwa Israeli alikuwa akisafiri kwa kupitia barabara kuelekea Atharimu, akapigana dhidi ya Israeli na kujitwalia baadhi ya mateka.
2 And Israel bounde hym sylf bi avow to the Lord, and seide, If thou schalt bitake this puple in myn hond, Y schal do awei `the citees therof.
Israeli akaapa mbele ya BWANA akasema, “Kama utatupa ushindi dhidi ya hawa watu, ndipo tutakapoingamiza kabisa miji yao,”
3 And the Lord herde the preieris of Israel, and bitook the Chananey; and Israel killid hym, and distruyede hise citees; and clepide the name of that place Horma, that is, cursyng, `ethir hangyng up.
BWANA akaisikia sautiya Israeli na kuwapa ushindi dhidi ya Wakanaani. Wakawaangamiza kabisa pamoja na miji yao. Mahali pale paliitwa Horima.
4 `Forsothe thei yeden forth also fro the hil of Hor, bi the weie that ledith to the reed see, that thei schulden cumpasse the lond of Edom; and it bigan to anoye the puple, of the weie and trauel.
Wakasafiri kutoka Mlima Hori kwa barabara kuelekea bahari ya shamu wakiizunguka nchi ya Edomu. Watu walikufa moyo kwa njia hiyo.
5 And the puple spak ayens the Lord and Moises, and seide, Whi leddist thou vs out of Egipt, that we schulden die in wildirnesse? breed failith, watris ben not; oure soule wlatith now on this `meete moost liyt.
Watu wakamnung'unikia Mungu na Musa: “Kwa nini umetutoa Misiri ili tufa katika jangwa hili? Hapa hakuna mikate, wala maji, na chakula hiki dhaifu kimetukinai.”
6 Wherfor the Lord sente `firid serpentis in to the puple; at the woundis of whiche serpentis, and the dethis of ful many men,
Basi Mungu akatuma nyoka wa sumu kati yao. Wale nyoka wakawauma wale watu; watu wengi walikufa.
7 thei camen to Moyses, and seiden, We synneden, for we spaken ayens the Lord and thee; preie thou, that he take awey fro vs the serpentis.
Watu wakaenda kwa Musa wakamwambia, “Tumetenda dhambi kwa sababu tumemnung'unikia Mungu na wewe. Mwombe Mungu atuondolee hawa nyoka.” Kwa hiyo Musa akawaombea watu.
8 And Moises preiede for the puple; and the Lord seide to hym, Make thou a serpent of bras, and sette thou it for a signe; he that is smytun and biholdith it, schal lyue.
BWANA akamwambia Musa, “Tengeneza nyoka na umweke kwenye nguzo. Na itakuwa kila anayeumwa, akimwangalia huyo nyoka atapona,”
9 Therfor Moyses made a serpent of bras, and settide for a signe; and men smytun and biholdynge it, weren heelid.
Kwa hiyo Musa akatengeneza nyoka wa shaba naye akamweka juu ya nguzo. Na kila mtu alipoumwa na nyoka na kumwangalia huyo nyoka alipona.
10 And the sones of Israel yeden forth,
Kisha watu wa Israeli wakasafiri na kisha kuweka kambi Obothi.
11 and settiden tentis in Oboth; fro whennus thei yeden forth, and settiden tentis in Neabarym, in the wildirnesse, that biholdith Moab, ayens the eest coost.
Kisha wakasafiri kutoka pale na kuweka kambi Iye Abarimu katika jangwa linalokabili Moabu kuelekea upande wa mashariki.
12 And thei moueden fro thennus, and camen to the stronde of Zareth;
Kutoka pale wakasafiri na kuweka kambi katika bonde la Zeredi.
13 which thei leften, and settiden tentis ayens Arnon, which is in the deseert, and apperith in the coostis of Amorrei. Forsothe Arnon is the terme of Moab, and departith Moabitis and Ammoreis.
Kutoka pale walisafiri na kuweka kambi kwenye upande mwingine wa mto Amoni, ambao ukubwa wake unaanzia kwenye mpaka wa Waamori. Mto wa Amoni ndio unaootengeneza mpaka wa Moabu, kati ya Moabu na Waamori.
14 Wherfor it is seid in the book of batels of the Lord, As he dide in the reed see, so he schal do in the strondis of Arnon;
Ndiyo maana imeandikwa katika gombo la Kitabu cha BWANA, “Wahebu katika Sufa, na bonde la Amoni,
15 the harde rochis of the strondis weren bowid, that tho schulen reste in Arnon, and schulden ligge in the coostis of Moabitis.
mtelemko wa bonde linaloelekea katika mji wa Ari na kuelekea kwenye mpaka wa Moabu,”
16 Fro that place the pit apperide, of which the Lord spak to Moyses, Gadere thou the puple, and Y schal yyue watir to it.
Kutoka pale wakasafiri mpaka Beeri, hapo ndipo palipo na kisima ambacho Bwana alimwambia Musa, “Wakusanye watu kwa ajili yangu ili uwape maji,”
17 Thanne Israel soong this song, The pit stie;
Ndipo Israeli waipoimba wimbo huu: “enyi visima, yajazeni maji. Imbeni juu ya kisima hiki.
18 thei sungen togidere, The pit which the princes diggiden, and the duykis of the multitude maden redi, in the yyuere of the lawe, and in her stauys. And thei yeden forth fro the wildirnesse to Mathana,
Kisima ambacho viongozi wetu walichimba, kisima ambacho wenye hekima walichimba kwa fimbo ya kifalme na kwa fimbo ya kutembelea.” Kisha kutoka jangwani walitembea mpaka Matanaha.
19 fro Mathana to Naaliel, fro Naaliel in to Bamoth;
Kutoka Matanaha walisafiri mpaka Nathalieli, na kutoka Nathalieli mpaka Bamothi,
20 Bamoth is a valey in the cuntrey of Moab, in the cop of Phasga, that biholdith ayens the deseert.
na kutoka Bamothi hadi kwenye bonde la Moabu. Hapo ndipo kilele cha Mlima Piska kinapoonekana jangwani.
21 Forsothe Israel sente messangeris to Seon, kyng of Ammorreis, and seide,
Kisha Israeli akatuma wajumbe kwa Sihoni mfalme wa Waamori akisema,
22 Y biseche that it be leueful to me to passe thorou thi loond; we schulen not bowe in to the feeldis and vyneris; we schulen not drynke watris of pittis; we schulen go in the kyngis weie, til we passen thi termes.
Tunaomba tupite katika nchi yako. hatutapita katika shamba au kwenye shamba la mizabibu. Hatutakunywa maji ya visima vyako. Tutapita katika njia kuu ya mfalme mpaka tutakapopita mpaka wako.”
23 Which nolde graunte that Israel schulde passe thury hise coostis, but rather, whanne the oost was gaderid, he yede out ayens Israel, in to deseert. And he cam in to Yasa, and fauyt ayens Israel;
Lakini mfalme Sihoni hakumruhusu Israeli kupita kwenye mpaka wao. Badala yake, Sihoni akakusanya jeshi lake lote na kumvamia Isreli huko jangwani. Akaja kwa Jahazi, ambapo alipigana dhidi ya Israeli.
24 of whom he was smytun in the scharpnesse of swerd, and his lond was weldid fro Arnon `til to Jeboth and `the sones of Amon; for the termes of Amonytis weren holdun bi strong help.
Israeli akalivamia jeshi la Sihoni na nchi ya upanga na kuchukua nchi yao kutoka Amon mpaka mto Jabboki, hadi kufikia nchi ya watu wa Amoni. Sasa mpaka wa watu wa Amoni ulikuwa umefungwa.
25 Therfor Israel took alle `the citees of hym, and dwelliden in the citees of Amorrei, that is, in Esebon, and hise townes.
Israeli akachukua miji yote ya Waamori na akaishi ndani yake, pamoja na Heshiboni na vijiji vyake wote.
26 The citee of Esebon was Seons, kyng of Ammorei, which Seon fauyt ayens the kyng of Moab, and took al the lond that was of his lordschip, `til to Arnon.
Heshiboni ulikuwa mji wa Sihoni mfalme wa Waamori, ambaye hapo awali alipigana dhidi ya mfalme wa kwanza wa Moabu. Sihoni alikuwa ameteka ardhi yake yote toka mipaka yake mpaka mto wa Amoni.
27 Therfor it is seid in prouerbe, Come ye in to Esebon, be it bildid, and maad the citee of Seon;
Hiyo ndiyo sababu wala ambao huongea kwa Mitahali husema, “Njoni Heshboni. Mji wa Sihoni ujengwe na kuimarishwa tena.
28 fier yede out of Esebon, flawme yede out of the citee `ethir greet castel of Seon, and deuouryde Ar of Moabitis, and the dwelleris of the `hiye places of Arnon.
Moto uliwaka toka Heshiboni, moto kutoka mji wa Sihoni ambao uliiteketeza Ari ya Moabu, na wenyeji wa miji ya juu ya Amoni.
29 Moab, wo to thee! thou, puple of Chamos, perischidist; it yaf the sones therof in to fliyt, and the douytris in to caitifte to Seon, kyng of Ammoreis;
Ole wako, Moabu! umepotea, enyi watu wa Chemoshi. Amewafanya watu wake kuwa wakimbizi na binti zake kuwa wafungwa wa Sihoni mfalme wa Waamori.
30 the yok of hem perischide, fro Esebon `til to Dibon; the wery men camen in to Jophe, and `til to Medaba.
Lakini tumempiga Sihoni. Tumeiangsmiza Heshibon mpaka Diboni. Tumewaharibu wote mpaka Nofa, ambayo inafika mpaka Madeba.”
31 And so Israel dwellide in the lond of Ammorrey.
Kwa hiyo Israeli akaanza kuishi katika nchi ya Waamori,
32 And Moises sente men that schulden aspie Jaser, whos `townes thei token, and weldiden the dwelleris.
Kisha Musa akatuma watu kwenda kuingalia Yaziri. Waliviteka vijiji vyake na kuwafukuza Waamori waliokuwa wakiishi humo.
33 And thei turniden hem silf, and stieden bi the weie of Basan. And Og, the kyng of Basan, with al his puple cam ayens hem, to fiyte in Edray.
Kisha wakageuka na kuelekea njia inayoelekea Bashani. Ogu mfalme wa Bashani akatofautiana nao, yeye na Jeshi lake lote, ili apigane nao kule Ederei.
34 And the Lord seide to Moises, Drede thou not hym, for Y haue bitake hym, and al his loond, and puple, in thin hoond; and thou schalt do to hym as thou didist to Seon, kyng of Ammorreis, the dwellere of Esebon.
Kisha BWANA akasema na Musa, “Msimwogope, kwa sababu nimewapeni ushindi dhidi yake, Jeshi lake lote na nchi yake. Mfanyeni kama mlivyomfanya Sihoni mfalme wa Waamori, aliyekuwa akiishi Heshiboni.”
35 Therfor thei smytiden `bothe hym with hise sones and al his puple, `til to deeth; and thei weldiden `the lond of hym.
Kwa hiyo wakamuua, na wanawe, na jeshi lake lote, mpaka wote wakaishi na hakubaki hata mmoja aliyebaki hai. Kisha wakaichukua nchi yake.
