Numbers 32
1 And much cattle hath been to the sons of Reuben and to the sons of Gad, very many; and they see the land of Jazer, and the land of Gilead, and lo, the place [is] a place [for] cattle;
Filii autem Ruben et Gad habebant pecora multa, et erat illis in jumentis infinita substantia. Cumque vidissent Jazer et Galaad aptas animalibus alendis terras,
2 and the sons of Gad, and the sons of Reuben, come in and speak unto Moses, and unto Eleazar the priest, and unto the princes of the company, saying:
venerunt ad Moysen, et ad Elezarum sacerdotem, et principes multitudinis, atque dixerunt:
3 'Ataroth, and Dibon, and Jazer, and Nimrah, and Heshbon, and Elealeh, and Shebam, and Nebo, and Beon —
Ataroth, et Dibon, et Jazer, et Nemra, Hesebon, et Eleale, et Saban, et Nebo, et Beon,
4 the land which Jehovah hath smitten before the company of Israel, is a land for cattle, and thy servants have cattle.'
terra, quam percussit Dominus in conspectu filiorum Israël, regio uberrima est ad pastum animalium: et nos servi tui habemus jumenta plurima,
5 And they say, 'If we have found grace in thine eyes, let this land be given to thy servants for a possession; cause us not to pass over the Jordan.'
precamurque si invenimus gratiam coram te, ut des nobis famulis tuis eam in possessionem, nec facias nos transire Jordanem.
6 And Moses saith to the sons of Gad and to the sons of Reuben, 'Do your brethren go in to the battle, and ye — do ye sit here?
Quibus respondit Moyses: Numquid fratres vestri ibunt ad pugnam, et vos hic sedebitis?
7 and why discourage ye the heart of the sons of Israel from passing over unto the land which Jehovah hath given to them?
cur subvertitis mentes filiorum Israël, ne transire audeant in locum, quem eis daturus est Dominus?
8 'Thus did your fathers in my sending them from Kadesh-Barnea to see the land;
Nonne ita egerunt patres vestri, quando misi de Cadesbarne ad explorandam terram?
9 and they go up unto the valley of Eshcol, and see the land, and discourage the heart of the sons of Israel so as not to go in unto the land which Jehovah hath given to them;
cumque venissent usque ad Vallem botri, lustrata omni regione, subverterunt cor filiorum Israël, ut non intrarent fines, quos eis Dominus dedit.
10 and the anger of Jehovah burneth in that day, and He sweareth, saying,
Qui iratus juravit, dicens:
11 They do not see — the men who are coming up out of Egypt from a son of twenty years and upward — the ground which I have sworn to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, for they have not been fully after Me;
Si videbunt homines isti, qui ascenderunt ex Ægypto a viginti annis et supra, terram, quam sub juramento pollicitus sum Abraham, Isaac, et Jacob: et noluerunt sequi me,
12 save Caleb son of Jephunneh the Kenezite, and Joshua son of Nun, for they have been fully after Jehovah;
præter Caleb filium Jephone Cenezæum, et Josue filium Nun: isti impleverunt voluntatem meam.
13 and the anger of Jehovah burneth against Israel, and He causeth them to wander in the wilderness forty years, until the consumption of all the generation which is doing the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah.
Iratusque Dominus adversum Israël, circumduxit eum per desertum quadraginta annis, donec consumeretur universa generatio, quæ fecerat malum in conspectu ejus.
14 'And lo, ye have risen in the stead of your fathers, an increase of men — sinners, to add yet to the fury of the anger of Jehovah toward Israel;
Et ecce, inquit, vos surrexistis pro patribus vestris, incrementa et alumni hominum peccatorum, ut augeretis furorem Domini contra Israël.
15 when ye turn back from after Him, then He hath added yet to leave him in the wilderness, and ye have done corruptly to all this people.'
Quod si nolueritis sequi eum, in solitudine populum derelinquet, et vos causa eritis necis omnium.
16 And they come nigh unto him, and say, 'Folds for the flock we build for our cattle here, and cities for our infants;
At illi prope accedentes, dixerunt: Caulas ovium fabricabimus, et stabula jumentorum, parvulis quoque nostris urbes munitas:
17 and we — we are armed hasting before the sons of Israel till that we have brought them in unto their place; and our infants have dwelt in the cities of defence because of the inhabitants of the land;
nos autem ipsi armati et accincti pergemus ad prælium ante filios Israël, donec introducamus eos ad loca sua. Parvuli nostri, et quidquid habere possumus, erunt in urbibus muratis, propter habitatorum insidias.
18 we do not turn back unto our houses till the sons of Israel have inherited each his inheritance,
Non revertemur in domos nostras, usque dum possideant filii Israël hæreditatem suam:
19 for we do not inherit with them beyond the Jordan and yonder, for our inheritance hath come unto us beyond the Jordan at the [sun] -rising.'
nec quidquam quæremus trans Jordanem, quia jam habemus nostram possessionem in orientali ejus plaga.
20 And Moses saith unto them, 'If ye do this thing: if ye are armed before Jehovah for battle,
Quibus Moyses ait: Si facitis quod promittitis, expediti pergite coram Domino ad pugnam:
21 and every armed one of you hath passed over the Jordan before Jehovah, till his dispossessing His enemies from before Him,
et omnis vir bellator armatus Jordanem transeat, donec subvertat Dominus inimicos suos,
22 and the land hath been subdued before Jehovah — then afterwards ye do turn back, and have been acquitted by Jehovah, and by Israel; and this land hath been to you for a possession before Jehovah.
et subjiciatur ei omnis terra: tunc eritis inculpabiles apud Dominum et apud Israël, et obtinebitis regiones, quas vultis, coram Domino.
23 'And if ye do not so, lo, ye have sinned against Jehovah, and know ye your sin, that it doth find you;
Sin autem quod dicitis, non feceritis, nulli dubium est quin peccetis in Deum: et scitote quoniam peccatum vestrum apprehendet vos.
24 build for yourselves cities for your infants, and folds for your flock, and that which is going out from your mouth do ye.'
Ædificate ergo urbes parvulis vestris, et caulas, et stabula ovibus ac jumentis: et quod polliciti estis, implete.
25 And the sons of Gad and the sons of Reuben speak unto Moses, saying, 'Thy servants do as my lord is commanding;
Dixeruntque filii Gad et Ruben ad Moysen: Servi tui sumus: faciemus quod jubet dominus noster.
26 our infants, our wives, our cattle, and all our beasts, are there in cities of Gilead,
Parvulos nostros, et mulieres, et pecora, ac jumenta relinquemus in urbibus Galaad:
27 and thy servants pass over, every armed one of the host, before Jehovah, to battle, as my lord is saying.'
nos autem famuli tui omnes expediti pergemus ad bellum, sicut tu, domine, loqueris.
28 And Moses commandeth concerning them Eleazar the priest, and Joshua son of Nun, and the heads of the fathers of the tribes of the sons of Israel;
Præcepit ergo Moyses Eleazaro sacerdoti, et Josue filio Nun, et principibus familiarum per tribus Israël, et dixit ad eos:
29 and Moses saith unto them, 'If the sons of Gad and the sons of Reuben pass over with you the Jordan, every one armed for battle, before Jehovah, and the land hath been subdued before you, then ye have given to them the land of Gilead for a possession;
Si transierint filii Gad et filii Ruben vobiscum Jordanem omnes armati ad bellum coram Domino, et vobis fuerit terra subjecta, date eis Galaad in possessionem.
30 and if they do not pass over armed with you, then they have possessions in your midst in the land of Canaan.'
Sin autem noluerint transire armati vobiscum in terram Chanaan, inter vos habitandi accipiant loca.
31 And the sons of Gad and the sons of Reuben answer, saying, 'That which Jehovah hath spoken unto thy servants — so we do;
Responderuntque filii Gad et filii Ruben: Sicut locutus est Dominus servis suis, ita faciemus:
32 we — we pass over armed before Jehovah [to] the land of Canaan, and with us [is] the possession of our inheritance beyond the Jordan.'
ipsi armati pergemus coram Domino in terram Chanaan, et possessionem jam suscepisse nos confitemur trans Jordanem.
33 And Moses giveth to them, to the sons of Gad, and to the sons of Reuben, and to the half of the tribe of Manasseh son of Joseph, the kingdom of Sihon king of the Amorite, and the kingdom of Og king of Bashan, the land by its cities, in the borders, the cities of the land round about.
Dedit itaque Moyses filiis Gad et Ruben, et dimidiæ tribui Manasse filii Joseph, regnum Sehon regis Amorrhæi, et regnum Og regis Basan, et terram eorum cum urbibus suis per circuitum.
34 And the sons of Gad build Dihon, and Ataroth, and Aroer,
Igitur exstruxerunt filii Gad, Dibon, et Ataroth, et Aroër,
35 and Atroth, Shophan, and Jaazer, and Jogbehah,
et Etroth, et Sophan, et Jazer, et Jegbaa,
36 and Beth-Nimrah, and Beth-Haran, cities of defence, and sheepfolds.
et Bethnemra, et Betharan, urbes munitas, et caulas pecoribus suis.
37 And the sons of Reuben have build Heshbon, and Elealeh, and Kirjathaim,
Filii vero Ruben ædificaverunt Hesebon, et Eleale, et Cariathaim,
38 and Nebo, and Baal-Meon (changed in name), and Shibmah, and they call by [these] names the names of the cities which they have built.
et Nabo, et Baalmeon versis nominibus, Sabama quoque: imponentes vocabula urbibus, quas exstruxerunt.
39 And sons of Machir son of Manasseh go to Gilead, and capture it, and dispossess the Amorite, who [is] in it;
Porro filii Machir filii Manasse, perrexerunt in Galaad, et vastaverunt eam interfecto Amorrhæo habitatore ejus.
40 and Moses giveth Gilead to Machir son of Manasseh, and he dwelleth in it.
Dedit ergo Moyses terram Galaad Machir filio Manasse, qui habitavit in ea.
41 And Jair son of Manasseh hath gone and captureth their towns, and calleth them 'Towns of Jair;'
Jair autem filius Manasse abiit, et occupavit vicos ejus, quos appellavit Havoth Jair, id est, Villas Jair.
42 and Nobah hath gone and captureth Kenath, and its villages, and calleth it Nobah, by his own name.
Nobe quoque perrexit, et apprehendit Chanath cum viculis suis: vocavitque eam ex nomine suo Nobe.
