1 Ama avontafepi nanekea Mosese'a maka Israeli vahema Jodani timofo kantu zage hanati kaziga ka'ma kopi Jodani agupofi Sufu kuma tavaonte, Parani kumaki, Tofeli kumaki, Labani kumaki, Hazeroti kuma'ene Disahap kumatamimofo amu'nompi seli nozamia ome ki'za mani'nazageno zmasami'nea naneke.
This is the record of what Moses told all the Israelites during their time in the desert to the east of the Jordan. They were in the Arabah near Suph, between Paran on the one side and Tophel, Laban, Hazeroth, and Di-zahab on the other.
2 Hagi Horepi agonareti'ma Kades-Barnea vunaku Seili agonama me'nea kante'ma vananana, 11ni'a zagegna vugahane.
(It takes eleven days to go from Horeb to Kadesh-barnea by the road that passes Mount Seir.)
3 Hianagi Israeli vahe'mo'zama Isipi mopama atre'zama vu'nazareti'ma, e'nea kna'a 40'a kafu manizageno, 11ni ikamofona ese knarera Ra Anumzamo'ma Israeli vahe'ma zamasamioma huno Mosesema asami'nea kante anteno, ana nanekea zamasami'ne.
On the first day of the eleventh month of the fortieth year, Moses recounted to the Israelites everything that the Lord had instructed him to tell them.
4 E'i ana nanekea Hesboni kumate mani'neno, Amori mopama kegava hu'nea kini ne' Sihonine, Astarot kumate'ene, Edrei kumate'ma mani'neno Basani mopama kegavama hu'nea kini ne' Ogine hara huznagatereteno zamasami'nea naneke.
This happened after he defeated Sihon king of the Amorites, who ruled in Heshbon, and then at Edrei after he defeated Og king of Bashan, who ruled in Ashtaroth.
5 Joda timofona zage hanati kaziga, Moapu mopafima Israeli vahe'ma mani'nazageno'a Mosese'a Ra Anumzamo'ma asami'nea nanekea amanage huno eriama huno zamasami'ne.
Speaking on the east side of the Jordan in the land of Moab, Moses began to explain these instructions, saying:
6 Horepi agonafima mani'nonkeno'a Ra Anumzana Anumzantimo'a amanage hu'ne. Hago za'za kna ama agonafina manize.
The Lord our God told us at Horeb: “You have remained here beside this mountain for long enough.
7 Kama vanazana rukrahe huta Amori vahe'mofo agonage kokampine, tavaozmire'ma nemaniza vahe'mofo mopama, Araba agona mopafine, agupo mopafine, Negevi mopafine, hagerinkena mopafine, Keneni vahe mopafine, Lebanoni vahe mopafine, Yufretisi rantima me'neregane vugahaze.
Continue your journey and go to the hill country of the Amorites and all their neighbors, into the Jordan Valley, into the hill country, into the foothills, into the Negev, and along the coast to the country of the Canaanites up to Lebanon, as far as the great River Euphrates.
8 Keho ama maka moparamina neramuanki, ufreta omeriho. Na'ankure Nagra tamagehe'ima Abrahamune, Aisakine, Jekopunema huvempa huzamante'na ama mopa tamagehe'i zamigahue hu'noe.
Look, I'm giving this land to you. Go and take ownership of the land that the Lord promised he would give to your fathers Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and to their descendants who would follow them.”
9 Ana knazupa nagra amanage hu'na tamasami'noe. Rama'a vahe mani'nazanki'na nagrake knatamia eri'na tamavre'na vugara osu'noe.
That's when I told you, “I can't take responsibility for all of you by myself.
10 Ra Anumzana tamagri Anumzamo'a menina tamazeri rama'a higeta, monafi hanafikna huta tusi vahekrefa fore huta mani'naze.
The Lord your God has increased your numbers so much that today there are as many of you as there are stars in the sky.
11 Hagi Ra Anumzana tamafahe'i Anumzamo'a huvempama hu'nea kante tauseni'a zupa agatereno tamazeri rama'a nehuno, asomura huramantesie.
May the Lord, the God of your forefathers, multiply you a thousand times and bless you as he has promised.
12 Hanki inankna hu'na nagrakera tamagri knazana e'neri'na, ha' frama hanaza zana tamazeri fatgo hugahue?
But how can I take on all your troubles, burdens, and arguments just by myself?
13 Hagi naga nofitamifintira knare antahi'zane vahe'ma, vahe'mo'zama kesga huzmantesage'za manine'za, havi zanki knare zanki'ma hu'za knare antahi'zanteti'ma refkoma huga vahe zamazeri otinke'na nagra huhampri zamantanena kvatamia manigahaze.
You must choose for yourselves wise, experienced men with good judgment from each of your tribes, and I will put them in charge as your leaders.”
14 Hagi tamagra amanage huta ana ke'nirera nasami'naze, kagrama hana antahintahimo'a knare hu'ne huta hu'naze.
You replied to me, saying, “Your proposal is a good one.”
15 Anagema hazage'na knare antahintahine vahe'ma zamagesgama nehaza vahera mago'a zamavare'na tauseni'a vahete kva vahe huhampri nezamante'na, mago'a handreti'a vahete kva vahe huhampri nezamante'na, mago'a 50'a vahete kva vahe huhampri nezamante'na, mago'a 10ni'a vahete kva vahe huhampri nezamante'na, magoke magoke naga nofipi kva vahetami, huhampri zmantetere hu'noe.
So I summoned your tribal leaders, men with good judgment, and put them in charge of you, as commanders and officials for your tribes. Some were responsible for thousands, some for hundreds, some for fifties, and some for tens.
16 Anagema hute'na amanage hu'na ana kva vahetmina zamasami'noe, tamagra keagama refko'ma hanazana, tamagra'a vahetmimofo kegaga refko nehuta, ru vahe'ma tamagranema enemaniza vahe'mofo kegaga refko hugahazanki, fatgo huta kegaga refko hiho.
At the same time I gave strict instructions to your judges: “Hear the cases brought between your brothers, and make sure you are fair when you judge between a man and his brother or a foreigner living among you.
17 Hagi kegagama refkoma hanafina, magomofo kazigagera onteho. Agi me'nea vahero, agi omane vahera mago'zanke hutma refkoa hugahaze. Mago vahekura korera osiho, na'ankure fatgoma huno refkoma hu'zana Anumzamofo avu'ava me'ne. Hagi amuhoma huramantenia kegaga nagrite erita e'nage'na nagra refkoa hugahue.
Don't show any favoritism when you judge—treat the powerful and the common people just the same. Don't let anyone intimidate you, because judgment is done on God's behalf. Bring me any case that is too hard for you, and I will hear it.”
18 Ana'ma hute'na maka tamagrama hanaza zantamina, e'inahu'za hiho hu'na huhankaveti'na hurmante'noe.
This was also the time I instructed you about everything you had to do.
19 Hagi anama huteta Horepia atreta Ra Anumzamo'ma hu'nea kante anteta, Amori vahe agona kokampine, tusi'a hagage ka'ma kokampi Kades Banea ehanati'none.
Following the orders of the Lord our God, we left Horeb and set off towards the hill country of the Amorites, passing through the whole of the large and terrifying desert that you yourselves have experienced. When we reached Kadesh-barnea,
20 Hagi nagra amanage hu'na tamasami'noe, Amori vahe agona mopama Ra Anumzana tagri Anumzamo'ma tamigahuema hu'nea mopafi ehanatize hu'na tamasami'noe.
I explained to you, “You have reached the hill country of the Amorites, which the Lord our God is giving to us.
21 Keho! Ra Anumzana tamagri Anumzamo mopa tami'ne. Hagi korera osuta Ra Anumzana tamafahe'i Anumzamo'ma zamasami'nea kante anteta mopa omerita maniho.
Look, the Lord your God has given you the land! Go and take ownership of the land as the Lord, the God of your forefathers, has told you. Don't be frightened or terrified.”
22 Anante miko vahe'mota nagrite eta amanage hu'naze, mago'a vahe huzmantesunke'za vu'za ana mopa ome nege'za, inankante vuta, ina kuma kora omerigahune ome kete'za eme tasamiho huta hu'naze.
Then you all came to me and suggested, “Let's send men on ahead to explore the land and report back to us about what route to take and which towns we'll come across.”
23 E'i ana ketamima antahuana knare hige'na, mago mago naga nofipinti mago vahe avaretere hugeno, ana mika 12fu'a hazage'na,
It seemed like a good plan to me, so I chose twelve of your men, one from each tribe.
24 ana vahera huzmantoge'za agona kokantegati agafa hu'za mopa afure'za vu'za, Eskoli agupofi uhanati'naze.
They set off and went up into the hill country as far as the Valley of Eshcol, exploring the land.
25 Hagi ana mopafintira mago'a zafa raga tagiza e'za amanage hu'za eme tasami'naze, Ra Anumzana tagri Anumzamo knare mopa neramie hu'naze.
They brought back some of the country's fruit, carrying it down to us, and gave us the report: “The Lord our God is giving us good land.”
26 Hianagi Ra Anumzana tamagri Anumzamo'ma hurmantea kea rutagreta, ana mopafina ovu'naze.
But you didn't want to go. You rebelled against the instructions of the Lord your God.
27 Tamagra seli nontmifi mani'neta ke hakare huta amanage hu'naze, Ra Anumzamo'a avesra huranteno, Amori vahe'mofo zamazampi tatresige'za, tazeri haviza hanazegu Isipi mopafintira tavreno atiramino e'ne huta hu'naze.
You complained while you were in your tents and said, “It's because the Lord hates us that he led us out of Egypt in order to hand us over to the Amorites to be wiped out.
28 Tagra iga vugahune? Nerafu'zama hu'za ana mopafima mani'naza vahe'mo'za tagrira tagatere'za za'za hu'za ranra vahe manizageno, ranra kumazamimofona hankavenentake vihu hugagizageno, Anaki ranra vahetamimofo mofavrezaga ke'none hu'za eme tasami'naza kemo'a tagu'amofona tazeri fakro fakro hu'ne.
Where are we going? Our brothers terrified us because they told us: ‘The people are bigger and taller than us; the towns are large, with high walls that reach the sky. We even saw the descendants of the giant Anak there!’”
29 Anante nagra amanage hu'na tamasami'noe, ana vahekura antri huta korera osiho.
So I told you, “Don't be frightened or scared of them!
30 Ra Anumzana tamagri Anumzamo'ma tamavugama nevia Anumzamo'a, Isipima mani'neta negazageno ha'ma huno tamavareno'ma e'neaza huno tamagritega anteno hara hugahie.
The Lord your God who leads your way will fight for you in the same way you saw him do for you in Egypt.
31 Hagi Ra Anumzana tamagri Anumzamo'ma ka'ma kokampima, mago ne'mo mofavrea avresga huno eankna huno tamavareno eno, ama kumate'ma ehanati'neana hago ke'naze.
He did the same in the desert—you saw how the Lord your God carried you like a father carries his son during your whole journey until you arrived here.”
32 Hianagi anama hu'nea zankura tamagra Ra Anumzana tamagri Anumzana antahimita tamentintia hunonteta,
Despite all this, you didn't trust the Lord your God,
33 vugota huno hanimpima tevefi manino tamavreno nevuno, masafina hampompi manino tamavreno nevuno, seli noma kisaza kumara tamaveri nehuno, kama vanaza kana tamaveri huno vu'nea Ra Anumzana tamefi hunemize.
who led you on the journey, present in the fire by night and in the cloud by day, looking to find a place for you to camp and to show you the way to go.
34 Hagi ke hakarema hu'naza kea Ra Anumzamo'a nentahino, tusi rimpahegeno amanage huno huvempa kea hu'ne.
When the Lord heard what you were saying, he got angry and swore an oath:
35 Amama mani'naza vahe'motagura Ra Anumzamo'a huno, Maka kefo tamavutmava'ene vahekitma, knare mopama tamagehe'mofoma zamigahue hu'nama huhaprizamante'noa mopafina, ovutfa hugahaze.
“Not a single one of this evil generation will see the good land I promised to give your forefathers,
36 Hagi Jefune nemofo Kalepike'za ana mopa ome kegahie. Agrama ome keteno'ma e'nea mopa agri'ene mofavre naga'amokizmi zamigahue. Na'ankure agra Ra Anumzamofo kea agu'areti huno avariri fatgo hu'ne.
except Caleb, son of Jephunneh. He will see it, and I will give him and his descendants the land he explored, because he was completely committed to the Lord.”
37 Hagi tamagrama haza avu'avazante Ra Anumzamo'a nagri'enena rimpa ahenanteno amanage huno nasami'ne, kagranena ana mopafina uofregahane hu'ne.
The Lord also got angry with me because of you. He told me, “Even you won't enter the country.
38 Hagi Nuni nemofo Josua'ma kazama huno eri'zama e'neria ne'mo, ana mopafina ufregahie. Hanki antahintahia aminka azeri hanavetio, na'ankure agra Israeli vahera zamavareno ufrenige'za, ana mopa omerigahaze.
However, Joshua, son of Nun, your assistant, will enter it. Encourage him, for he will help Israel to occupy the land.
39 Hagi havizane knare zanema antahi ama'ma osu'naza neonse mofavretami zamatresuge'za ana mopafina ufresage'na, ana mopa zamisuge'za eri'za manigahaze.
Your small children that you claimed would become prisoners, your children who at the time didn't know good from evil, they will be the ones to enter the land that I will give them, and they will occupy it.
40 Hianagi tamagra rukrahe huta ka'ma mopafi koranke hagerima me'nea kantega vu'naze.
But now turn around and head back into the desert on the road that leads to the Red Sea.”
41 Anante tamagra amanage huta kenona hu'naze, tagra Ra Anumzamofontera kumi hu'nonanagi, Ra Anumzana tagri Anumzamo'ma hu'nea kante anteta hara ome hugahune. Anagema nehuta ha' zantamina retro huta fru hu'neankita amane hara ome huta agona mopa omerigahune huta hu'naze.
But you answered and told me, “We have sinned against the Lord! We will go and we will fight and we will do everything the Lord our God has ordered us to do.” Then you all picked up your weapons and prepared for battle thinking it would be easy to go and fight in the hill country.
42 Hianagi Ra Anumzamo'a amanage huno nasami'ne, zamasamige'za mareri'za hara ome osiho. Na'ankure ha'ma ome hanazana Nagra zamagranena ovugahuankino, ha' vahe'zmimo'za hara huzmagateregahaze hige'na tamasami'noe.
But the Lord instructed me, “Order them not to go and fight because I won't be with you to prevent you from being defeated by your enemies.”
43 Hianagi kea ontahita tamagra Ra Anumzamofo kea eri atreta tamagra tamavesi avaririta ha' ome hunaku agonage kokampina mareri'naze.
I told you this, but you refused to listen. You defied the instructions of the Lord and arrogantly went to fight in the hill country.
44 Hianagi Amori vahe'ma ana agona kokampima nemaniza vahe'mo'za, tumemo'ma erintaguma huno eaza hu'za Seiri kumateti tamahe'za tamarotgo hute'za Homa kumate uhanati'naze.
Then the Amorites living there in the hills came and attacked you. They chased after you like a swarm of bees, killing you all the way from Seir to Hormah.
45 Anama hazageta ete etma Ra Anumzamofo avuga zavira eme ate'nazanagi, Ra Anumzamo'a ana zavi krafa tamia antahi ontami'ne.
You came back to camp and wept before the Lord, but he refused to listen to what you said or to pay attention to you.
46 E'ina higeta Kades Banea kumate zazakna mani'naze.
You stayed there in Kadesh for a long time.
