1 Anantetira Ra Anumzamo'ma nasami'nea kante anteta ete rukrahe huta, Koranke Hagerima me'nerega ka'ma kokampi vano vano nehuta, rama'a kna Seiri agonamofona kagikagia hu'none.
“Then we turned around and went through the desert toward the (Red Sea/Gulf of Aqaba), as Yahweh told us to do, and we wandered in the Edom area for many years.
2 Hagi anante Ra Anumzamo'a amanage huno nagrikura hu'ne,
Then Yahweh said to me,
3 tamagra rama'a kna ama agonage kokampina kagikagi hazanki, rukrahe huta anagamu noti kaziga mareriho.
‘You have been wandering around this hilly area for a long enough time. Now turn [and travel] toward the north.
4 Hagi amanage hunka zamasamio huno nasami'ne, tamagra tamafuhe'i Iso naga'ma nemaniza Seiri mopafi ufreta nevanage'za, zamagra koro tamagrikura hugahazanki, kva hu'neta viho.
And tell the people that they are about to travel near the land that belongs to the descendants of Esau, who are also descendants of Isaac. They live in the [hilly] Edom region. They will be afraid of you,
5 Hianagi tamagrafintira hara huozamanteho, na'ankure zamagri mopafintira magore hu'na mopa ontamitfa hugahue. Na'ankure Seiri agona mopa Isone hu'na ami'noe.
but do not start to fight against them, because I am not going to give you even a tiny bit [HYP] of their land. I have given that land to the descendants of Esau.
6 Hagi zamagri mopafi ufreta nevanuta, ne'zane tinena zamagripinti mizasegahaze.
[When you travel near their land], buy food and water from them.’
7 Na'ankure Ra Anumzana tamagri Anumzamo'a ama tusi ka'ma kokampima vanazama'a antahi'neankino, maka zama hu'naza zana asomu huramante'ne. Ama'i 40'a zage kafufina Ra Anumzana tamagri Anumzamo'a tamagri'ene mani'negeta mago zankura atupara osu'naze.
Do not forget that Yahweh our God has blessed you in everything that you [SYN] have done. He knows [what has happened to you while] you have wandered in this huge desert. But he has been with you during those 40 years, and as a result you have had everything that you needed [LIT].
8 E'ina higeta Iso naga'ma Seiri kumate'ma nemaniza tafuhe'ina ome zamagatereta Araba kamo'ma Elatine, Ezion-Gebama vu'nea kana atreta noti kaziga rukrahe huta Moapu ka'ma kokama me'nerega vu'none.
So we continued to travel. We avoided going through the hilly area where the descendants of Esau live. We stayed away from the road through the Jordan [River] Valley past Ezion-Geber and Elath [towns], and we turned and traveled northeast toward the desert area where the Moab people-group lives.
9 Hagi anante Ra Anumzamo'a amanage huno nasami'ne, Tamagra Moapu vahera zamarimpa nereta, tamagraregatira hara huozmanteho. Na'ankure Ar mopa Loti naga zami'noanki'na, magore hu'na ana mopa ontamitfa hugahue.
Yahweh said to me, ‘Do not bother/harass the people of Moab, and do not start to fight against them, because I am not going to give you any of their land. [Do not forget that] they are descendants of [Abraham’s nephew] Lot, and I have given to them Ar [city, their capital, and the other areas in that country].’”
10 (Hagi e'i ana mopafima ko'ma Moapu vahe'ma omani'nazarera, Emi vahe'mo'za Anaki vahekna hu'za za'za hu'za tusinasi vahe rama'a fore hu'nazane.
A large group of giants called Emim formerly lived there. They were strong and numerous, and as tall as the giants who were descendants of Anak.
11 Hagi Anaki vahe'ene Emi vahekura mago'a vahe'mo'za Rafaimi vahere hu'za nehaze. Hianagi Moapu vahe'mo'za, Emi vahere hu'za nehaze.
They and the descendants of Anak are also called the Repha giants, but the people of Moab call them Emim.
12 Hagi Seiri mopafina Hori vahe kora nemanizane. Hianagi Ra Anumzamo'ma Israeli vahe'ma zamige'za mopama eri'nazaza hu'za, Iso naga'mo'za Hori vahe ome zamahenati'za, ana mopa omeri'za mani'naze.)
The Hor people-group also formerly lived in the Edom area, but the descendants of Esau chased them out. They defeated and killed them and (settled in/occupied) their land, just as the Israeli people later expelled their enemies from the land that Yahweh gave to them.
13 Hagi menina otita vuta Zareti agupofi viho, huno Ra Anumzamo higeta vu'none.
[I also said to the Israeli people], “Then we crossed the Zered Gorge, as Yahweh told us to do.
14 Kades Baniama atreta e'nontetima eno Zareti tima takahe'nonte'ma e'neana, 38'a zagekfu manita ehanati'none. Ana hunkeno maka ha'ma huga vahe'tmina Ra Anumzamo'ma huvempama hu'nea kante ante'za fri vagare'naze.
It had been thirty-eight years from the time we first left Kadesh-Barnea until we crossed the Zered Gorge. During those years, all the Israeli (fighting men/soldiers) of that generation had died, as Yahweh had vowed would happen.
15 Tamage huno seli noma ki'zama maniterema hu'za neazafi, Ra Anumzamo ha'rezamanteno ana vahera zamahetere hume eno eme zamahe vagare'ne.
They died because Yahweh opposed them, until he had gotten rid of all of them.
16 Ana'ma higeno'ma maka ha'ma huga vahe'ma fri vagaregeno'a,
After all the men who had been old enough to fight in wars had died [DOU],
17 Ra Anumzamo'a amanage huno nasami'ne,
Yahweh said to me,
18 Tamagra menina Ar rankumapinti rugitagita Moapu vahe mopafi vugahaze.
‘Today you all must cross the border into the Moab region, near Ar, [their capital city].
19 Hagi Amoni vahe mopafima ufresuta, zamazeri zamarimpamahe zana osinke'za, hara huoramanteho. Na'ankure Amoni vahe mopa tamagrira ontamigahue. Na'ankure e'i Loti mofavre naga zami'noa mopa me'ne.
When you come near the border of the land where the Ammon people-group live, do not bother/harass them or start to fight against them. They are also descendants of Lot, so I am not going to give you any of the land that I have given to them.’”
20 (Korapara ana mopafina Refaim vahe mani'nazageno, Refaimi mopa vahere hu'za nehazane. Hianagi Amoni vahe'mo'za ana vahekura Zamzumu vahere hu'za nehaze.
That region is also called the land of the Repha giants, who formerly lived there. The Ammon people-group call them the Zamzum group.
21 E'ina Zamzumu vahe'mo'za Anaki vahe kna hu'za zaza hu'za tusinasi vahetami fore hu'za hanave vahe fore hu'za rama'a mani'naze. Hianagi Ra Anumzamo'a zamahe hana hige'za Amoni vahe'mo'za menina ana mopafina mani'naze.
They were a large and powerful group, who were as tall as the descendants of Anak. But Yahweh got rid of them, and the Ammon people-group expelled them and took their land away from them and started to live there.
22 Hori vahe'ma Ra Anumzamo'ma zamahe hana hige'za, Iso naga'mo'za Seiri mopafima mani'naza kna hu'za mani'naze. Hagi ananteti'ma eno'ma meninema e'neana, ana mopafina Iso naga'mo'za mani'naze.
Yahweh had done the same thing for the descendants of Esau who live in the hilly area of Edom. He got rid of the Hor people-group, with the result that the Edom people-group took their land from them and started to live there. They still live there.
23 Hagi Avi vahe'ma mani'za Gazama uhanati'naza vahera, Kaftori vahe'ma Kritima nemaniza vahe'mo'za eme zamahe hana hu'za ana mopafina mani'naze.)
People who came from Crete [Island] got rid of the Av group [who previously lived in the land close to the Mediterranean Sea], as far south as Gaza. They took their land from them and started to live there.
24 Anante Mosese'a mago'ane huno, Ra Anumzamo'a amanage huno nasami'ne, otita Anoni agupofi viho. Keho, Hesboni kinia Amori ne' Sihonina tamazampi avrenente'na, mopa'anena tamazampi nentoe. Hanki vuta hara ome huzmanteta mopazamia eriho.
“[After we had gone through the Moab region], Yahweh said to us, ‘Now cross the Arnon [River]. I will help you to defeat [IDM] [the army of] Sihon, the king of the Amor people-group, who lives in Heshbon [city]. So attack their army and start to take their land from them.
25 Ama knareti'ma vaniana agafa hu'na kokankokama mani'naza vahepina, koroza anta'nenke'za tusi koro tamagrikura nehu'za, tamagenkema antahisu'za zamahirahikura nehu'za, zamanogu hugahaze.
Today I will begin to cause everyone, everywhere, to be afraid of you. Everyone who hears about you will tremble and be terrified.’
26 Anante Ketemoti ka'ma kokampi mani'neta mago rimpama nehuno, knare'ma huno mani nanekea Hesboni kumate kini ne' Sihonintega anage hu'na kea atre'noe,
Then I sent messengers to go from the desert to King Sihon at Heshbon. I told them to give this peaceful message to the king:
27 tatregeta mopaka'afina rugitagita vamaneno. Kama nevanuta anteganti antegama osuta, kante vu fatgo huta vugahune.
‘Please allow us to travel through your land. We [promise that we] will stay on the road; we will not turn off to the right or to the left.
28 Ne'zane tinena zagore atrenketa mizaseta neneta, mopatamifina ufreta amne vamaneno.
We will pay for any food or water that you allow us to buy. We want only to walk through your country,
29 Iso naga'ma Seiri kumate'ma nemaniza naga'mo'zane, Moapu vahe'ma Ari kumate'ma nemaniza vahe'mo'zama hu'nazaza huta tatrenketa mopatamifina rugitagita vuta Jodani tina ome takaheta Ra Anumzamo'ma tami'nea mopa omerimaneno hu'naze.
until we cross the Jordan [River] into the land that Yahweh our God is giving to us. Do for us just as the descendants of Esau who live in the Edom area and the Moab people-group did for us when they allowed us to go through their areas.’
30 Hianagi Hesboni kini ne' Sihoni'a mopa'afima rugitagitama vuzankura i'o huno hurante'ne. Na'ankure Ra Anumzana tamagri Anumzamo'a menima tazampima avrentesigeta ha' hugateresunku antahintahi'a eri hanaveti'ne.
But King Sihon would not allow us to go through his country. That was because Yahweh our God caused him to be stubborn [IDM]. The result was that Yahweh enabled us to defeat his army and take his land [IDM], which we still live in.
31 Anante Ra Anumzamo'a amanage huno nasami'ne, Antahiho! Sihonine mopa'anena tamazampi nentoe. Hanki ana mopa erita maniho.
Yahweh said to me, ‘Listen! I am about to allow you to defeat Sihon’s [army] and to take the people’s land from them. So start to occupy it!’
32 Hagi anante Sihoni'ene naga'amo'zanena Zahasi mopafi hara eme hurante'naku e'nazanagi,
Then Sihon came out [of the city] with all his army to fight against us at Jahaz [town].
33 Ra Anumzana tagri Anumzamo'a Sihonine mofavre naga'ane, maka vahe'anena avreramigeta, zamahe hana hu'none.
But God enabled us to defeat [DOU] them, and we killed Sihon and his sons and all his soldiers.
34 Hagi mika Sihoni'ma kegavama hu'nea kumara eri haviza nehuta, mika vene'nene, a'nene mofavreraminena magore huta ozmatreta zamahe hana hu'none.
We captured all their cities and destroyed them all. We killed all the men and women and children; we did not allow any of them to remain alive.
35 Anama ha'ma hupintira afu'zagane, mago'a zantaminena eri'none.
We took the valuable things that were in the cities that we captured and also their cattle.
36 Hagi Arnoni agupomofo atumparega Aroeri kumateti vuno Kireatima uhanatigeno, ana amu'nompima me'nea kumazmimofo vihumo'a ha' vahe'timofona zamagura ovazi'ne. Hagi Ra Anumzana tagri Anumzamo taza higeta zamahe vagare'none.
Yahweh our God enabled us to capture [IDM] all their towns from Aroer [in the south], which is at the edge of the Arnon River [Valley], to the Gilead [region in the north]. Some of their cities had [walls around them], but we were able to [climb over them].
37 Hianagi Amoni vahe'mofo mopa tava'ontera, Jaboki ti ankenare'ene, agona kumatamimpinena Ra Anumzana tagri Anumzamo'a zamatreho hu'nea kante anteta ovu'none.
But we did not go near the area where the Ammon people-group live, or the banks of the Jabbok riverbed, or the towns in the hilly area, or any other place where Yahweh our God told us not to go.”
