Na Helu 21
1 A LOHE ae la ke alii o Arada ka Kanaana, e noho ana ma ke kukuluhema, e hele mai ana ka Iseraela ma ke ala e hiki ai i na wahi ona, alaila, kaua mai la ia i ka Iseraela, a lawe pio aku la i kekahi poe o lakou.
When the Canaanite king of Arad, who lived in the Negev, heard that Israel was traveling by the road to Atharim, he fought against Israel and took some of them captive.
2 Hoohiki aku la ka Iseraela ia Iehova, i aku la, Ina paha e haawi mai oe i keia poe kanaka iloko o ko'u lima, alaila e luku loa aku no au i na kulanakauhale o lakou.
Israel vowed to Yahweh and said, “If you give us victory over these people, then we will completely destroy their cities.”
3 Hoolohe mai la o Iehova i ka leo o ka Iseraela, a hoolilo mai la i ka poe Kanaana: a luku loa aku la lakou ia lakou la, a me na kulanakauhale o lakou; a kapa aku la ia i ka inoa o ia wahi o Horema.
Yahweh listened to Israel's voice and he gave them victory over the Canaanites. They completely destroyed them and their cities. That place was called Hormah.
4 Hele aku la lakou mai ke kuahiwi o Hora aku, ma ke alanui o ke Kaiula, e puni i ka aina o Edoma: a ua pau ke aho o na kanaka no ke alanui.
They traveled from Mount Hor by the road to the Sea of Reeds to go around the land of Edom. The people became very discouraged on the way.
5 Olelo ino aku la na kanaka i ke Akua, a ia Mose, No ke aha la olua i kai mai nei ia makou mailoko mai o Aigupita e make ma ka waonahele? no ka mea, aohe berena, aole hoi ho wai; a ke hoopailua nei ko makou naau i keia ai mama.
The people spoke against God and Moses: “Why have you brought us up out of Egypt to die in the wilderness? There is no bread, no water, and we hate this miserable food.”
6 Hoouna mai la o Iehova i na nahesa wela iwaena o na kanaka, a nahu mai la lakou i na kanaka; a he nui na kanaka o ka Iseraela i make.
Then Yahweh sent poisonous snakes among the people. The snakes bit the people; many people died.
7 No ia mea, hele mai la na kanaka io Mose la, i mai la, Ua haua hewa makou; no ka mea, ua olelo ino aku makou ia Iehova a ia oe: e pule aku oe ia Iehova, e lawe aku ia i na nahesa mai o makou aku nei. A pule aku la o Mose no na kanaka.
The people came to Moses and said, “We have sinned because we have spoken against Yahweh and you. Pray to Yahweh for him to take the snakes away from us.” So Moses prayed for the people.
8 Olelo mai la o Iehova ia Mose, E hana oe nau i nahesa wela, a e kau aku ia maluna o ka laau, a o kela mea keia mea i nahuia, i ka wa e nana aku ai oia ia mea, e ola no ia.
Yahweh said to Moses, “Make a snake and attach it to a pole. It will happen that everyone who is bitten will survive, if he looks at it.”
9 A hana iho la o Mose i nahesa keleawe, a kau aku la ia maluna o ka laau; a o ke kanaka i nahuia i ka nahesa wela, i ka wa i nana aku ai oia i ka nahesa keleawe, ua ola ia.
So Moses made a bronze snake and attached it to a pole. When a snake bit any person, if he looked at the bronze snake, he survived.
10 A hele aku la na mamo a Iseraela, a hoomoana iho la ma Obota.
Then the people of Israel traveled on and camped at Oboth.
11 A hele lakou mai Obota aku, a hoomoana iho la ma Iieabarima, i ka waonahele ma ke alo o Moaba, ma ka hikina o ka la.
They traveled from Oboth and camped at Iye Abarim in the wilderness that faces Moab toward the east.
12 Mailaila aku lakou i hele ai, a hoomoana iho la ma ke kahawai o Zareda.
From there they traveled on and camped in the Valley of Zered.
13 Mailaila aku lakou i hele ai, a hoomoana iho la ma hela aoao o Arenona, ma ka waonahele e hele mai ana mailoko mai o na palena o ka Amora; no ka mea, o Arenona oia ka palena o Moaba, mawaena o Moaba a me ka Amora.
From there they traveled on and camped on the other side of the Arnon River, which is in the wilderness that extends from the border of the Amorites. The Arnon River forms the border of Moab, between Moab and the Amorites.
14 Nolaila, ua olelo ia maloko o ka buke o na kaua a Iehova, ma Vaheba ma Supa, a ma na kahawai o Arenona,
That is why it says in the scroll of the Wars of Yahweh, “... Waheb in Suphah, and the valleys of the Arnon,
15 A ma ke kahe ana o na kahawai, ka mea hele ma ka noho ana o Ara, a moe iho ma ka palena o Moaba.
the slope of the valleys that lead toward the town of Ar and lie along the border of Moab.”
16 Mailaila aku lakou a Beera; oia ka punawai kahi a Iehova i olelo mai ai ia Mose, E hoakoakoa i na kanaka, a e haawi aku no wau i wai no lakou.
From there they traveled to Beer, the well where Yahweh said to Moses, “Gather the people together for me to give them water.”
17 Alaila mele aku la ka Iseraela i keia mele, E huahuai mai, e ka punawai; E mele aku oukou ia ia:
Then Israel sang this song: “Spring up, well! Sing about it,
18 O na luna ka i kohi iho i ka punawai, O na'lii o na kanaka i eli iho ia, Mamuli o ka Lunakanawai, me na kookoo o lakou. A mai ka waonahele aku lakou a Matana;
about the well that our leaders dug, the well the nobles of the people dug, with the scepter and their staffs.” Then from the wilderness they traveled to Mattanah.
19 A mai Matana aku a Nahaliela; a mai Nahaliela aku a Bamota:
From Mattanah they traveled to Nahaliel, and from Nahaliel to Bamoth,
20 A mai Bamota aku lakou a i ke awawa ma ke kula o Moaba, malalo o ka puu o Pisega, ma ka aoao e huli ana i ka waonahele.
and from Bamoth to a valley in the land of Moab. That is where the top of Mount Pisgah looks down on the wilderness.
21 Hoouna aku la ka Iseraela i na elele io Sihona la ke alii o ka Amora, i aku la,
Then Israel sent messengers to Sihon king of the Amorites saying,
22 E ae mai oe e hele aku wau mawaena o kou aina: aole makou e kipa ma na mahinaai, aole hoi ma na pawaina: aole makou e inu i ka wai o ka punawai; e hele aku no makou ma ke alanui o ke alii, a hala aku la makou mai kou mau palena aku.
“Let us pass through your land. We will not turn into any field or vineyard. We will not drink the water from your wells. We will travel by the king's highway until we have crossed your border.”
23 Aole no i ae mai o Sihona e hele aku ka Iseraela mawaena o kona mau palena: aku, hoakoakoa ae la o Sihona i kona poe kanaka a pau, a hele aku la iloko o ka waonahele e ku e i ka Iseraela: a hele mai la ia i Iahaza, a kaua mai la i ka Iseraela.
But King Sihon would not allow Israel to pass through their border. Instead, Sihon gathered all his army together and attacked Israel in the wilderness. He came to Jahaz, where he fought against Israel.
24 Luku aku la ka Iseraela la ia i ka pahikaua, a komo aku la i kona aina mai Arenona a Iaboka, a hiki i na mamo a Amona: no ka mea, ua paa ka palena o na mamo a Amona.
Israel attacked the army of Sihon with the edge of the sword and took their land from the Arnon to the Jabbok river, as far as the land of the people of Ammon. Now the border of the people of Ammon was fortified.
25 Lawe pio ae la ka Iseraela i keia mau kulanakauhale a pau: a noho iho la ka Iseraela ma na kulanakauhale a pau o ka Amora, i Hesebona, a i na kauhale a pau o ia wahi.
Israel took all the Amorite cities and lived in all of them, including Heshbon and all of its villages.
26 No ka mea, o Hesebona ke kulanakauhale o Sihona ke alii o ka Amora, nana i kaua aku mamua i ke alii o Moaba, a lawe ae la i kona aina a pau mai kona lima aku, a hiki i Arenona.
Heshbon was the city of Sihon king of the Amorites, who had fought against the former king of Moab. Sihon had taken all his land from his territory to the Arnon River.
27 No ia mea, i mai la na hakumele, E hele oukou iloko o Hesebona, e hana hou ia Ke kulanakauhale o Sihona e hookumuia:
That is why those who speak in proverbs say, “Come to Heshbon. Let the city of Sihon be rebuilt and established again.
28 No ka mea, mai Hesebona i hele aku ai ke ahi, He lapalapa ahi ma ke kulanakauhale o Sihona aku: Ua hoopau oia ia Ara o Moaba, A me na haku o na wahi kiekie o Arenona.
A fire blazed from Heshbon, a flame from the city of Sihon that devoured Ar of Moab, and the owners of the high places of Arnon.
29 Auwe oe, e Moaba! ua make no oe! E na kanaka o Kemosa! Ua haawi aku ia i kana mau keikikane i pakele, A me kana mau kaikamahine, i poe pio No ke alii o ka Amora, no Sihona.
Woe to you, Moab! You have perished, people of Chemosh. He has made his sons to be fugitives and his daughters to be prisoners of Sihon king of the Amorites.
30 Ua pana pua aku makou ia lakou; Ua lukuia o Hesebona a hiki i Dibona, Ua hooneoneo makou a hiki aku i Nopa, A hiki hoi i Medeba.
But we have conquered Sihon. Heshbon is devastated all the way to Dibon. We have defeated them all the way to Nophah, which reaches to Medeba.”
31 A noho iho la ka Iseraela ma ka aina o ka Amora.
So Israel began to live in the Amorites' land.
32 A hoouna aku la o Mose e makaikai ia Iaazera, a komo lakou i na kulanakauhale o ia wahi, a hookuke aku la i ka Amora malaila.
Then Moses sent men to look at Jazer. They took its villages and drove out the Amorites who were there.
33 Haliu ae la lakou, a pii aku la ma ke alanui o Basana: a hele mai la o Oga ke alii o Basana e ku e mai ia lakou, oia a me kona poe kanaka a pau, i ke kaua ma Ederei.
Then they turned and went up by the road of Bashan. Og king of Bashan went out against them, he and all his army, to fight them at Edrei.
34 Olelo mai la o Iehova ia Mose, Mai makau oe ia ia; no ka mea, ua haawi aku no wau ia ia iloko o kou lima, me kona kanaka a pau, a me kona aina: a e hana aku oe ia ia me kau i hana aku ai ia Sihona ke alii o ka Amora i noho ma Hesebona.
Then Yahweh said to Moses, “Do not fear him, because I have given you victory over him, all his army, and his land. Do to him as you did to Sihon king of the Amorites, who lived at Heshbon.”
35 A luku aku la lakou ia ia, me kana mau keikikane, a me kona poe kanaka a pau, aole i koe kekahi e ola ana nona: a komo aku la lakou i kona aina.
So they killed him, his sons, and all his army, until none of his people were left alive. Then they took over his land.
