Bilangan 21
1 Raja negeri Arad, orang Kanaan yang tinggal di Tanah Negeb, mendengar, bahwa Israel datang dari jalan Atarim, lalu ia berperang melawan Israel, dan diangkutnya beberapa orang tawanan dari pada mereka.
The Canaanite [Descendant of Humbled], the king of Arad, who lived in the South, sh'ma ·heard obeyed· that Israel [God prevails] came by the way of Atharim. He fought against Israel [God prevails], and took some of them captive.
2 Maka bernazarlah orang Israel kepada TUHAN, katanya: "Jika Engkau serahkan bangsa ini sama sekali ke dalam tangan kami, kami akan menumpas kota-kota mereka sampai binasa."
Israel [God prevails] vowed a vow to Adonai, and said, “If you will indeed deliver this people into my hand, then I will utterly destroy their cities.”
3 TUHAN mendengarkan permintaan orang Israel, lalu menyerahkan orang Kanaan itu; kemudian orang-orang itu dan kota-kotanya ditumpas sampai binasa. Itulah sebabnya tempat itu dinamai Horma.
Adonai sh'ma ·heard obeyed· the voice of Israel [God prevails], and delivered up the Canaanites [Descendants of Humbled]; and they utterly destroyed them and their cities. The name of the place was called Hormah.
4 Setelah mereka berangkat dari gunung Hor, berjalan ke arah Laut Teberau untuk mengelilingi tanah Edom, maka bangsa itu tidak dapat lagi menahan hati di tengah jalan.
They traveled from Mount Hor by the way to the Sea of Suf [Reed Sea], to go around the land of Edom [Red] The soul of the people was very discouraged because of the journey.
5 Lalu mereka berkata-kata melawan Allah dan Musa: "Mengapa kamu memimpin kami keluar dari Mesir? Supaya kami mati di padang gurun ini? Sebab di sini tidak ada roti dan tidak ada air, dan akan makanan hambar ini kami telah muak."
The people spoke against God, and against Moses [Drawn out], “Why have you brought us up out of Egypt [Abode of slavery] to die in the wilderness? For there is no bread, and there is no water; and our soul loathes this light bread.”
6 Lalu TUHAN menyuruh ular-ular tedung ke antara bangsa itu, yang memagut mereka, sehingga banyak dari orang Israel yang mati.
Adonai sent fiery serpents among the people, and they bit the people. Many people of Israel [God prevails] died.
7 Kemudian datanglah bangsa itu mendapatkan Musa dan berkata: "Kami telah berdosa, sebab kami berkata-kata melawan TUHAN dan engkau; berdoalah kepada TUHAN, supaya dijauhkan-Nya ular-ular ini dari pada kami." Lalu Musa berdoa untuk bangsa itu.
The people came to Moses [Drawn out], and said, “We have sinned, because we have spoken against Adonai, and against you. Pray to Adonai, that he take away the serpents from us.” Moses [Drawn out] prayed for the people.
8 Maka berfirmanlah TUHAN kepada Musa: "Buatlah ular tedung dan taruhlah itu pada sebuah tiang; maka setiap orang yang terpagut, jika ia melihatnya, akan tetap hidup."
Adonai said to Moses [Drawn out], “Make a fiery serpent, and set it up on a pole. It shall happen, that everyone who is bitten, when he sees it, shall live.”
9 Lalu Musa membuat ular tembaga dan menaruhnya pada sebuah tiang; maka jika seseorang dipagut ular, dan ia memandang kepada ular tembaga itu, tetaplah ia hidup.
Moses [Drawn out] made a serpent of bronze, and set it on the pole. If a serpent had bitten any man, when he looked at the serpent of bronze, he lived.
10 Kemudian berangkatlah orang Israel, lalu berkemah di Obot.
The children of Israel [God prevails] traveled, and encamped in Oboth.
11 Berangkatlah mereka dari Obot, lalu berkemah dekat reruntuhan di Abarim, di padang gurun yang di sebelah timur Moab.
They traveled from Oboth, and encamped at Iyeabarim, in the wilderness which is before Moab [From father], toward the sunrise.
12 Dari situ berangkatlah mereka, lalu berkemah di lembah Zered.
From there they traveled, and encamped in the valley of Zered.
13 Dari situ berangkatlah mereka, lalu berkemah di seberang sungai Arnon yang di padang gurun dan yang keluar dari daerah orang Amori, sebab sungai Arnon ialah batas Moab, di antara orang Moab dan orang Amori.
From there they traveled, and encamped on the other side of the Arnon, which is in the wilderness, that comes out of the border of the Amorites [Descendants of Talkers]: for the Arnon is the border of Moab [From father], between Moab [From father] and the Amorites [Descendants of Talkers].
14 Itulah sebabnya dikatakan dalam kitab peperangan TUHAN: "Waheb di Sufa dan lembah-lembah ke sungai Arnon,
Therefore it is said in the book of the Wars of Adonai, “Vaheb in Suphah, the valleys of the Arnon,
15 dan lereng lembah-lembah; lereng itu terbentang ke tempat di mana terletak kota Ar, dan bersandar pada batas daerah Moab."
the slope of the valleys that incline toward the dwelling of Ar, leans on the border of Moab [From father].”
16 Dari sana mereka ke Beer. Inilah sumur di mana TUHAN berfirman kepada Musa: "Kumpulkanlah bangsa itu, maka Aku akan memberikan air kepada mereka."
From there they traveled to Beer; that is the well of which Adonai said to Moses [Drawn out], “Gather the people together, and I will give them water.”
17 Pada waktu itu orang Israel menyanyikan nyanyian ini: "Berbual-buallah, hai sumur! Mari kita bernyanyi-nyanyi berbalas-balasan karena sumur yang digali oleh raja-raja,
Then Israel [God prevails] sang this song: “Spring up, well! Sing to it,
18 yang dikorek oleh kaum bangsawan di antara bangsa itu dengan tongkat-tongkat kerajaan, dengan tongkat-tongkat mereka." Dan dari padang gurun mereka ke Matana;
the well, which the princes dug, which the nobles of the people dug, with the scepter, and with their poles.” From the wilderness they traveled to Mattanah;
19 dari Matana ke Nahaliel; dari Nahaliel ke Bamot;
and from Mattanah to Nahaliel; and from Nahaliel to Bamoth;
20 dari Bamot ke lembah yang di daerah Moab, dekat puncak gunung Pisga yang menghadap Padang Belantara.
and from Bamoth to the valley that is in the field of Moab [From father], to the top of Pisgah, which looks down on the desert.
21 Kemudian orang Israel mengirim utusan kepada Sihon, raja orang Amori, dengan pesan:
Israel [God prevails] sent messengers to Sihon king of the Amorites [Descendants of Talkers], saying,
22 "Izinkanlah kami melalui negerimu; kami tidak akan menyimpang masuk ke ladang-ladang dan kebun-kebun anggurmu, kami tidak akan minum air sumurmu, di jalan besar saja kami akan berjalan, sampai kami melalui batas daerahmu."
“Let me pass through your land. We will not turn aside into field, or into vineyard. We will not drink of the water of the wells. We will go by the king’s highway, until we have passed your border.”
23 Tetapi Sihon tidak mengizinkan orang Israel berjalan melalui daerahnya, bahkan ia mengumpulkan seluruh laskarnya, lalu keluar ke padang gurun menghadapi orang Israel, dan sesampainya di Yahas berperanglah ia melawan orang Israel.
Sihon would not allow Israel [God prevails] to pass through his border, but Sihon gathered all his people together, and went out against Israel [God prevails] into the wilderness, and came to Jahaz. He fought against Israel [God prevails].
24 Tetapi orang Israel mengalahkan dia dengan mata pedang dan menduduki negerinya dari sungai Arnon sampai ke sungai Yabok, sampai kepada bani Amon, sebab batas daerah bani Amon itu kuat.
Israel [God prevails] struck him with the edge of the sword, and possessed his land from the Arnon to the Jabbok, even to the children of Ammon [Tribal people]; for the border of the children of Ammon [Tribal people] was strong.
25 Dan orang Israel merebut segala kota itu, lalu menetaplah mereka di segala kota orang Amori, di Hesybon dan segala anak kotanya.
Israel [God prevails] took all these cities. Israel [God prevails] lived in all the cities of the Amorites [Descendants of Talkers], in Heshbon, and in all its villages.
26 Sebab Hesybon ialah kota kediaman Sihon, raja orang Amori; raja ini tadinya berperang melawan raja Moab yang lalu, dan merebut dari tangannya seluruh negerinya sampai ke sungai Arnon.
For Heshbon was the city of Sihon the king of the Amorites [Descendants of Talkers], who had fought against the former king of Moab [From father], and taken all his land out of his hand, even to the Arnon.
27 Itulah sebabnya penyair-penyair berkata: "Datanglah ke Hesybon, baiklah dibangun dan baiklah diperkuat kota kediaman Sihon itu!
Therefore those who speak in proverbs say, “Come to Heshbon. Let the city of Sihon be built and established;
28 Sebab api keluar dari Hesybon, nyala dari kota kediaman Sihon, yang memakan habis Ar-Moab, yang berkuasa atas bukit-bukit di sepanjang sungai Arnon.
for a fire has gone out of Heshbon, a flame from the city of Sihon. It has devoured Ar of Moab [From father], The lords of the high places of the Arnon.
29 Celakalah engkau, ya Moab; binasa engkau, ya bangsa Kamos! Ia membuat anak-anaknya lelaki menjadi orang-orang pelarian, dan anak-anaknya perempuan menjadi tawanan kepada Sihon, raja orang Amori.
Woe to you, Moab [From father]! You are undone, people of Chemosh! He has given his sons as fugitives, and his daughters into captivity, to Sihon king of the Amorites [Descendants of Talkers].
30 Kita telah menembaki mereka, Hesybon binasa sampai ke Dibon, dan kita menanduskannya sampai ke Nofah, yang terbentang sampai ke Medeba."
We have shot at them. Heshbon has perished even to Dibon. We have laid waste even to Nophah, Which reaches to Medeba.”
31 Demikianlah orang Israel diam di negeri orang Amori.
Thus Israel [God prevails] lived in the land of the Amorites [Descendants of Talkers].
32 Setelah Musa menyuruh orang mengintai kota Yaezer, mereka merebut segala anak kota Yaezer dan menghalau orang-orang Amori yang ada di situ.
Moses [Drawn out] sent to spy out Jazer. They took its villages, and drove out the Amorites [Descendants of Talkers] who were there.
33 Kemudian berpalinglah mereka dan maju ke arah Basan. Lalu Og, raja Basan, beserta segala rakyatnya maju ke Edrei menjumpai mereka untuk berperang.
They turned and went up by the way of Bashan. Og the king of Bashan went out against them, he and all his people, to battle at Edrei.
34 Tetapi TUHAN berfirman kepada Musa: "Janganlah takut kepadanya, sebab Aku menyerahkan dia dengan seluruh rakyatnya dan negerinya ke dalam tanganmu, dan haruslah kaulakukan kepadanya seperti yang kaulakukan kepada Sihon, raja orang Amori, yang diam di Hesybon."
Adonai said to Moses [Drawn out], “Don’t fear him, for I have delivered him into your hand, with all his people, and his land. You shall do to him as you did to Sihon king of the Amorites [Descendants of Talkers], who lived at Heshbon.”
35 Maka mereka mengalahkan dia dan anak-anaknya dan seluruh rakyatnya, sehingga seorangpun dari mereka tidak ada yang dibiarkan terlepas; lalu mereka menduduki negerinya.
So they struck him, with his sons and all his people, until there were no survivors; and they possessed his land.
