< Oekyuk 21 >
1 Ke tokosra lun acn Arad, su oan layen eir in acn Canaan, el lohngak lah mwet Israel elos tuku sun acn Atharim, el som mweunelos ac sruokya kutu selos.
And the Canaanite, the king of Arad who dwelt in the South, heard that Israel had entered by the way of Atharim, —so he made war with Israel, and took some of them captive.
2 Na mwet Israel elos orala sie wulela na ku nu sin LEUM GOD: “Kom fin lela kut in kutangla mwet inge, kut ac kisakunuloswot nu sum oayapa siti selos, ac kut ac fah kunauselosla.”
Then Israel vowed vow unto Yahweh, and said, —If thou wilt, surely deliver up, this people into my hand, then will I utterly destroy their cities.
3 LEUM GOD El lohngolos ac kasrelos kutangla mwet Canaan. Ouinge mwet Israel arulana sukelosla ac siti selos, ac sang inen acn sac Hormah.
And Yahweh hearkened unto the voice of Israel and delivered up the Canaanite into his hand, so he utterly destroyed them, and their cities, and called the name of the place Hormah [that is, "Utter Destruction"].
4 Mwet Israel som liki Fineol Hor, ac ut ke inkanek ma som nu ke Meoa Srusra, tuh elos in ut na sisken facl sin mwet Edom. Tusruktu ke elos srak fahsr, mwet uh semutengla
Then brake they up from Mount Hor, by way of the Red Sea, to go round the land of Edom, —and the soul of the people became impatient because of the way,
5 ac kaskas lain God ac Moses. Elos torkaskas ac fahk, “Efu kom ku uskutme liki acn Egypt kut in tuh misa in acn mwesis se inge, yen wanginna mongo ac kof we? Kut tasak ke mwe mongo koluk inge!”
So then the people spake against God and against Moses, Wherefore have ye brought us up out of Egypt, to die in the desert? for there is neither bread nor water, and our soul, doth loathe this contemptible bread!
6 Na LEUM GOD El supwala serpent pwasin nu inmasrlon mwet uh, ac mwet Israel puspis ngalnguli ac misa.
And Yahweh sent among the people the poisonous serpents, and they bit the people, —and much people out of Israel died.
7 Ac mwet uh tuku nu yorol Moses ac fahk, “Kut orekma koluk ke kut kaskas lain LEUM GOD ac lain kom. Pre nu sin LEUM GOD Elan usla serpent inge.” Ke ma inge Moses el pre ke mwet uh.
Then came the people of Israel unto Moses and said—We have sinned in that we spake against Yahweh and against thee, Pray thou unto Yahweh, that he may take from us the serpent. So Moses prayed for the people.
8 Na LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Moses elan orala soko serpent osra, ac likiya mutun soko sak ah, tuh kutena mwet su ngalnguli fin ngetak nu kac, elos fah moul ac tia misa.
Then said Yahweh unto Moses—Make thee a like serpent, and put it upon standard, —and it shall come to pass, that, any one who is bitten, as soon as he seeth it, shall live.
9 Ouinge Moses el orala soko serpent ke bronze ac likiya fin soko sak. Na kutena mwet su ngalnguli, elos ac ngetak nu ke serpent bronze soko ah, ac moul.
So Moses made a serpent of bronze, and put it upon the standard, —and it came to pass—that if the serpent had bitten any man, as soon as he directed his look unto the serpent of bronze, he lived.
10 Mwet Israel elos sifil mukuiyak ac tulokunak lohm nuknuk selos in acn Oboth.
And the sons of Israel brake up, —and encamped in Oboth.
11 Toko elos som liki acn sac, ac tulokunak nien aktuktuk selos ke mahnum lun Abarim in acn mwesis kutulap in facl Moab.
And they brake up from Oboth, —and encamped in Ije-Abarim, in the desert which is over against Moab, towards the rising of the sun.
12 Na elos sifilpa mukuiyak liki acn we ac aktuktuk ke infahlfal Zered.
From thence, brake they up, —and encamped in the ravine of Zered.
13 Elos sifilpa mukuiyak liki acn we ac tuku nu layen epang in Infacl Arnon ac aktuktuk we, ke yen mwesis se su fahla nwe ke facl sin mwet Amor. (Infacl Arnon pa masrol lun facl sin mwet Moab ac mwet Amor.)
From thence, brake they up, and encamped on the other side of Arnon which is in the desert, that cometh forth out of the boundary of the Amorites, —for, Arnon, is the boundary of Moab, between Moab and the Amorites.
14 Pa sis [Book In Mweun Lun] LEUM GOD sramsramkin “...siti srisrik Waheb ke ipin acn lun Suphah, ac infahlfal uh, ac Infacl Arnon,
For this cause is it said, in the Book of the Wars of Yahweh, — …Waheb with a hurricane, And the ravines of Arnon;
15 ac acn oatu ke infahlfal se ma fahla nwe ke siti srisrik Ar, ac suwosang nwe ke masrol lun acn Moab.”
And the bottom of the ravines, that extendeth toward the dwelling of Ar, —And adjoineth to the boundary of Moab,
16 Liki acn we elos som na nwe ke sie acn pangpang Lufin Kof, acn se ma LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Moses, “Usani mwet uh nu sie, ac nga ac fah sang kof nu selos.”
And from thence, towards Beer, —the same, is the well whereof Yahweh said unto Moses, Gather together the people, that I may give them water.
17 In pacl sac mwet Israel uh yuk on soko inge: “Lufin kof uh, unonak; Kut ac fah onkakin kom ke soko on.
Then, sang Israel this song, —Spring thou up, O well! Respond ye thereunto;
18 Lufin kof pukpukyak sin leum uh, Ac sin mwet kol lun mwet uh; Pukpukyak ke soko scepter lun tokosra, Oayapa ke sikal lun mwet kol lalos.” Elos mukuiyak liki yen mwesis nu Mattanah,
A well!—princes digged it, Nobles of the people, delved it, With a sceptre, With their staves. And, from the desert, to Mattanah;
19 ac liki acn we elos som na nwe Nahaliel, ac liki acn Nahaliel me nu Bamoth,
and from Mattanah, to Nahaliel; and from Nahaliel, to Bamoth;
20 ac liki acn Bamoth nu infahlfal in acn lun mwet Moab, ye mangon eol Pisgah, su oan ngeta nu fin acn mwesis.
and, from Bamoth of the valley, which is in the field-country of Moab, to the top of Pisgah, —which overlooketh Jeshimon.
21 Na mwet Israel supwala mwet utuk kas nu sel Sihon, tokosra lun mwet Amor, ac fahk:
Then sent Israel messengers, unto Sihon king of the Amorites, saying:
22 “Nunak munas, lela nu sesr in fahsr sasla in acn sum. Kut, ac cow natusr, fah tia kuhfla liki inkanek lulap in utyak nu in ima lom ku ima in grape sunom, ac kut ac fah tia nim kof ke lufin kof lowos uh. Kut ac fahsrna fin inkanek lulap ah, nwe ke kut alukela facl sum uh.”
Let me pass through thy land we will not turn aside into field or into vineyard, nor will we drink the water of a well, —by the king’s road, will we go, until we get through thy boundary.
23 Tusruktu Tokosra Sihon el tiana fuhlela mwet Israel in fahla fin acn sel. El orani un mwet mweun lal ac illa som nu Jahaz in acn mwesis, ac mweuni mwet Israel.
And Sihon suffered not Israel to pass through his boundary, but Sihon gathered together all his people, and came forth to meet Israel, towards the desert, and entered Jahaz, and fought with Israel.
24 Tusruktu mwet Israel elos onela mwet puspis sin mwet lokoalok lalos ke mweun sac, ac sruokya acn selos, mutawauk ke Infacl Arnon nwe ke Infacl Jabbok layen epang, aok nwe ke sun masrol lun mwet Ammon uh, mweyen masrol se ingan musaiyukla arulana ku!
And Israel smote him with the edge of the sword, —and took possession of his land, from Arnon unto Jabbok, unto the sons of Ammon, for strong, was the boundary of the sons of Ammon.
25 Na mwet Israel uh kutangla siti nukewa sin mwet Amor, weang Heshbon ac inkul nukewa ma oan apkuran nu we, na elos oakwuki we.
So Israel took all these cities, —and Israel dwelt in all the cities of the Amorites, in Heshbon and in all her villages;
26 Heshbon pa capital siti lal Tokosra Sihon lun mwet Amor, su tuh mweun lain tokosra lun mwet Moab meet, ac eisla acn lal nukewa fahla na nwe Infacl Arnon.
for, as for Heshbon, the city of Sihon king of the Amorites, it was, he, having fought with the former king of Moab, and taken all his land out of his hand, unto Arnon.
27 Pa oru mwet ma yuk pas uh onkakin mu, “Fahsru nu Heshbon, siti sel Tokosra Sihon! Kut kena liye in sifilpa musaiyukyak ac akwoyeyukla.
For this cause, say the poets—Enter ye Heshbon, —Built and prepared be the city of Sihon;
28 Sie pacl ah, in siti se inge Heshbon, Un mwet mweun lal Sihon illa oana sie e. Elos kunausla siti Ar in acn Moab Ac sukela inging sisken infacl Arnon.
For, a fire, hath come forth out of Heshbon, A flame, out of the stronghold of Sihon; It hath consumed Ar of Moab, The lords of the high places of Arnon.
29 We nu suwos, mwet Moab! Kowos su alu nu sin Chemosh, kowos arulana musalla! God lowos uh oru tuh mukul we uh in mwet kakaing, Ac mutan we elos mwet sruoh lal Tokosra Sihon lun mwet Amor.
Woe to thee, Moab, Thou art lost, O people of Chemosh, —He hath given up his sons as fugitives, And his daughters into captivity, Unto the king of the Amorites, Sihon.
30 Tusruktu fwilin tulik natulos kunausyukla, Mutawauk Heshbon lac na nwe Dibon, Liki acn Nashim nwe Nophah, apkuran nu Medeba.”
Then we shot them—Heshbon is destroyed, as far as Dibon, —Then laid we waste as far as Nophah, A fire reacheth unto Medeba.
31 Ouinge mwet Israel oakwuki in acn lun mwet Amor,
So then Israel dwelt in the land of the Amorites.
32 ac Moses el supwala kutu mwet kalngeyuk nu ke siti Jazer in konauk lah elos ac mweuni fuka acn we. Mwet Israel elos sruokya siti sac wi inkul nukewa ma oan apkuran nu we, ac lusak mwet Amor su muta we.
And Moses sent to spy out Jazer, and they captured the villages thereof, —and dispossessed the Amorites that were there.
33 Toko mwet Israel forla ac ut ke inkanek nu Bashan, ac tokosra Og lun Bashan el illa us un mwet mweun lal in mweunelos in acn Edrei.
Then turned they, and went up by the way of Bashan, —and Og, king of Bashan, came forth to meet them—he and all his people, to give battle at Edrei.
34 LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Moses, “Nik kom sangeng sel. Nga ac oru tuh kom in kutanulla, ac mwet lal nukewa ac acn sel. Oru nu sel oana ma kom tuh oru nu sel Sihon, tokosra lun mwet Amor, su leumi acn Heshbon.”
Then said Yahweh unto Moses—Do not fear him, for into thy hand, have I delivered him and all his people, and his land, —Therefore shalt thou do unto him, as thou didst unto Sihon king of the Amorites, who was dwelling in Heshbon.
35 Ouinge mwet Israel elos unilya Tokosra Og, ac wen natul ac mwet lal nukewa — wangin mwet painmoulla — na elos oakwuki in acn sel.
So then they smote him and his sons and all his people, until there was not left him a remnant, —and took possession of his land.
