1 Idi nadamag ti ari iti Arad a Cananeo nga agnanaed idiay Negev, nga agdaldaliasat dagiti Israelita iti kalsada nga agturong idiay Atarim, rinautna dagiti Israelita ken innalana a balud ti sumagmamano kadakuada.
The Canaanite king of Arad who lived in the Negev learned that the Israelites were approaching on the road to Atharim. He went and attacked Israel and took some of them prisoners.
2 Nagsapata dagiti Israelita kenni Yahweh ket kinunada, “No itedmo kadakami ti balligi maibusor kadagitoy a tattao, ket dadaelenmi a naan-anay dagiti siudadda.”
So Israel made a solemn promise to the Lord: “If you hand these people over to us, we pledge to completely destroy their towns.”
3 Dinengngeg ni Yahweh ti timek dagiti Israelita ket intedna kadakuada ti balligi kadagiti Cananeo. Dinadaelda ida a naan-anay ken dagiti siudadda. Naawagan dayta a lugar a Horma.
The Lord responded to their appeal and handed over the Canaanites to them. The Israelites completely destroyed them and their towns, and named the place Hormah.
4 Nagdaliasatda manipud iti Bantay Hor nga agturong iti baybay dagiti Runo tapno likmutenda ti daga ti Edom. Kasta unay ti pannakadismaya dagiti tattao bayat nga addada iti dalan.
The Israelites left Mount Hor by the road leading to the Red Sea so they could avoid traveling through the country of Edom. But the people became bad-tempered on the way
5 Nagsao dagiti tattao maibusor iti Dios ken ni Moises: “Apay nga impanawnakami manipud iti Egipto tapno matay iti let-ang? Awan tinapay, awan danum ken saanmi a kayat daytoy makauma a makan.”
and made complaints against God and against Moses, saying, “Why did you lead us out of Egypt to die in the desert? We don't have bread or water, and we hate this awful food!”
6 Ket nangibaon ni Yahweh kadagiti nagita nga uleg kadagiti tattao. Kinagat dagitoy nga uleg dagiti tattao; adu a tattao ti natay.
So the Lord sent poisonous snakes to attack them, and many Israelites were bitten and died.
7 Immasideg dagiti tattao kenni Moises ket kinunada, “Nagbasolkami gapu ta nagsaokami iti maibusor kenka ken ni Yahweh. Agkararagka kenni Yahweh tapno ikkatenna dagitoy nga uleg kadakami.” Ngarud, inkararagan ni Moises dagiti tattao.
The people went to see Moses and told him, “We were wrong to make complaints against the Lord and against you. Please pray to the Lord to get rid of the snakes from us.” Moses prayed to the Lord on their behalf.
8 Kinuna ni Yahweh kenni Moises, “Mangaramidka iti sinan-uleg ken ikapetmo daytoy iti poste. Makalasatto amin a nakagat no kitaenna daytoy.”
The Lord told Moses, “Make a model of a snake and put it on a pole. When anyone who has been bitten looks at it, they will live.”
9 Isu a nagaramid ni Moises iti sinan-uleg a bronse sana inkapet iti poste. Makalasat ti siasinoman a kagaten ti uleg no kumita isuna iti sinan-uleg a bronse.
Moses made a snake out of bronze and put it on a pole. Those who looked at it did live.
10 Kalpasanna, nagtuloy a nagdaliasat dagiti Israelita ket nagkampoda idiay Obot.
The Israelites left and camped at Oboth.
11 Nagdaliasatda manipud Obot ket nagkampoda iti rebba ti Abarim idiay let-ang nga akin-daya a paset ti Moab.
Then they moved on from Oboth and camped at Iye-abarim in the desert on the east side of Moab.
12 Manipud sadiay intultuloyda ti nagdaliasat ket nagkampoda iti tanap ti Zered.
They left there and camped in the Valley of Zered.
13 Manipud sadiay, intultuloyda ti nagdaliasat ket nagkampoda iti ballasiw ti Karayan Arnon, nga adda iti let-ang a dumanon iti beddeng dagiti Amorreo. Ti Karayan Arnon ti beddeng iti Moab, nagbaetan daytoy ti Moab ken dagiti Amorreo.
Then they moved on from there and camped on the far side of the Arnon River, in the desert near Amorite territory. The Arnon River is the border between the Moab and the Amorites.
14 Isu't gapuna a nailanad iti nalukot a pagbasaan kadagiti Gubat ni Yahweh, “Waheb idiay Sufa, ken kadagiti tantanap ti Arnon,
That's why the Book of the Wars of the Lord refers to “the town of Waheb in Suphah and the canyon of the Arnon,
15 dagiti pasalog a tantanap nga agturong iti ili ti Ar ken sumalog iti beddeng ti Moab.”
the canyon slopes that reach the village of Ar that lies on the border with Moab.”
16 Manipud sadiay, nagdaliasatda a nagturong iti Beer, ti ayan iti bubon a nagkunaan idi ni Yahweh kenni Moises. “Ummongem dagiti tattao tapno ikkak ida iti danum.”
From there they moved on to Beer, the well where the Lord told Moses, “Have the people gather together so I can give them water.”
17 Ket inkanta dagiti Israelita daytoy a kanta: “Agubbogka, bubon. Ikantami ti maipapan iti daytoy.
Then the Israelites sang this song: “Pour out water, well! Everyone of you sing to it!
18 Ti bubon a kinali dagiti mangidadaulo kadakami, ti bubon a kinali dagiti natakneng a tattao babaen iti setro ken dagiti bastonda.” Ket manipud iti let-ang, nagdaliasatda a nagturong iti Matana.
The tribal chiefs dug the well; yes the leaders of the people dug the well with their rods of authority and their walking sticks.” The Israelites left the desert and carried on to Mattanah.
19 Manipud iti Matana, nagdaliasatda a nagturong iti Nahaliel, ken manipud Nahaliel, nagturongda idiay Bamot,
From Mattanah they traveled to Nahaliel, from Nahaliel to Bamoth,
20 ken manipud idiay Bamot nagturongda iti maysa a tanap idiay daga ti Moab. Sadiay, ti tuktok ti Bantay Pisga a matantannawagan ti let-ang.
and from Bamoth to the valley in the territory of Moab where the top of Mount Pisgah looks down on the wastelands.
21 Ket nangibaon dagiti Israelita kadagiti mensaheroda a mapan kenni Sihon nga ari dagiti Amorreo a kunada,
Then Israel sent messengers to Sihon, king of the Amorites, with the following request:
22 “Palubosandakami a lumabas iti dagam. Saankami a sumrek iti aniaman a talon wenno kaubasan. Saankami nga uminom iti danum kadagiti bubonmo. Agdaliasatkami iti kangrunaan a kalsada ti ari agingga a malabsanmi ti beddengmo.”
“Please allow us to travel through your country. We won't cross any of your fields or vineyards, or drink water from any of your wells. We will stay on the King's Highway until we have passed through your country.”
23 Ngem saan nga impalubos ni Ari Sihon a lumabas iti beddengda dagiti Israelita. Ngem ketdi, inummong ni Sihon dagiti amin a soldadona ket rinautda dagiti Israelita idiay let-ang. Napan isuna idiay Jaaz a nangrautanna kadagiti Israelita.
But Sihon refused to allow the Israelites to travel through his territory. Instead, he called out his whole army and went out to meet the Israelites head-on in the desert. When he arrived at Jahaz, he attacked the Israelites.
24 Rinaut dagiti Israelita dagiti soldado ni Sihon babaen iti tirad ti kampilanda ket tinagikuada ti dagdagada manipud Arnon agingga iti karayan Jabbok, agingga iti daga dagiti Amonita. Ita, napatibker ti beddeng dagiti Amonita.
The Israelites defeated them, killing them with their swords. They took over his land from the Arnon River to the Jabbok River —but only as far as the border of the Ammonites, because it was well defended.
25 Sinakup dagiti Israelita amin a siudad dagiti Amorreo ket nagnaedda kadagitoy, kasta met idiay Hesbon ken kadagiti amin a barbario.
The Israelites conquered all the Amorite towns and took them over, including Heshbon and its surrounding villages.
26 Ti Hesbon ket siudad ni Sihon nga ari dagiti Amorreo, ti nakiranget iti sigud nga ari iti Moab. Sinakup amin ni Sihon ti daga ti Moab manipud iti masakupanna agingga iti Karayan Arnon.
Heshbon was the capital of Sihon, king of the Amorites, who had fought against the previous king of Moab and had taken from him all his land as far as the Arnon River.
27 Dayta ti gapuna a dagiti agsarsarita kadagiti probervio ket kunada, “Umaykayo iti Hesbon. Maibangon ken maipatakder koma manen ti siudad ni Sihon.
That's why the old songwriters wrote: “Come to Heshbon and have it be rebuilt; restore the town of Sihon!
28 Adda apuy a rimmuar manipud iti Hesbon, maysa nga apuy manipud iti siudad ni Sihon a nangkisap ti Ar iti Moab, ken dagiti makinkukua kadagiti katurturodan iti Arnon.
For a fire blazed out from Heshbon, a flame from the town of Sihon. It burned up Ar in Moab where the rulers live on the high places of Arnon.
29 Asikayo pay, Moab! Nadadaelkayo, dakayo a tattao iti Kemos. Pinagbalinna a libas a balud dagiti lallaki nga annakna ken dagiti babbai nga annakna ket nagbalinda a balud ni Sihon nga ari dagiti Amorreo.
What a disaster you face, Moab! You are all going to die, people of Chemosh! You handed over your sons as exiles and your daughters as prisoners to Sihon, king of the Amorites.
30 Ngem naparmekmi ni Sihon. Nadadaelen ti Hesbon agingga idiay Dibon. Naparmekmi amin ida agingga idiay Nofa, a dumanon idiay Medeba.”
But now we have defeated the Amorites! Heshbon's rule has been destroyed all the way to Dibon. We wiped them out all the way to Nophah and on to Medeba.”
31 Isu a rinugian dagiti Israelita ti agnaed iti daga dagiti Amorreo.
The Israelites occupied the country of the Amorites.
32 Ket nangibaon ni Moises kadagiti lallaki nga agpaliiw idiay Jazer. Sinakupda dagiti il-ilina daytoy ken pinapanawda dagiti Amorreo nga adda sadiay.
Moses sent men to explore Jazer. The Israelites conquered its surrounding villages and expelled the Amorites living there.
33 Kalpasanna, naglikko dagiti Israelita ket simmang-atda iti dalan nga agturong idiay Basan. Rimmuar ni Og nga ari ti Basan agraman ti armadana tapno darupenda dagiti Israelita, tapno makirangetda kadakuada idiay Edrei.
Then they continued on the road towards Bashan. Og, king of Bashan, led his whole army out to meet them head on, and fought them at Edrei.
34 Ket kinuna ni Yahweh kenni Moises, “Saanka nga agbuteng kenkuana, gapu ta intedko kenka ti balligi a mangparmek kenkuana, kadagiti amin nga armadana, ken iti dagana. Aramidem kenkuana ti inaramidmo kenni Sihon nga ari dagiti Amorreo, a nagnaed idiay Hesbon.”
The Lord told Moses, “You don't need to be afraid of him, because I have handed him over to you, along with all his people and his land. Do to him what you did to Sihon, king of the Amorites, who ruled from Heshbon.”
35 Pinatayda ngarud ni Og, dagiti lallaki nga annakna, ken amin nga armadana, agingga nga awan iti nabati a sibibiag kadagiti tattaona. Ket tinagikuada ti dagana.
So they killed Og, his sons, and all his army. Nobody survived, and the Israelites took over his country.
