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.
The Canaanite, the king of Arad, who lived in the South, heard that Israel came by the way of Atharim. He fought against 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.”
Israel vowed a vow to the LORD, and said, “If you will indeed deliver this people into my hand, then I will 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.
The LORD listened to the voice of Israel, and delivered up the Canaanites; and they utterly destroyed them and their cities. The name of the place was called Hormah.
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
They travelled from Mount Hor by the way to the Red Sea, to go around the land of Edom. The soul of the people was very discouraged because of the journey.
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!”
The people spoke against God and against Moses: “Why have you brought us up out of Egypt to die in the wilderness? For there is no bread, there is no water, and our soul loathes this disgusting food!”
6 Na LEUM GOD El supwala serpent pwasin nu inmasrlon mwet uh, ac mwet Israel puspis ngalnguli ac misa.
The LORD sent venomous snakes amongst the people, and they bit the people. Many people 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.
The people came to Moses, and said, “We have sinned, because we have spoken against the LORD and against you. Pray to the LORD, that he take away the serpents from us.” 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.
The LORD said to Moses, “Make a venomous snake, and set it on a pole. It shall happen that everyone who is bitten, when he sees 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.
Moses 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 Mwet Israel elos sifil mukuiyak ac tulokunak lohm nuknuk selos in acn Oboth.
The children of Israel travelled, 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.
They travelled from Oboth, and encamped at Iyeabarim, in the wilderness which is before Moab, towards the sunrise.
12 Na elos sifilpa mukuiyak liki acn we ac aktuktuk ke infahlfal Zered.
From there they travelled, and encamped in the valley 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 there they travelled, and encamped on the other side of the Arnon, which is in the wilderness that comes out of the border of the Amorites; for the Arnon is the border 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,
Therefore it is said in The Book of the Wars of the LORD, “Vaheb in Suphah, the valleys of the Arnon,
15 ac acn oatu ke infahlfal se ma fahla nwe ke siti srisrik Ar, ac suwosang nwe ke masrol lun acn Moab.”
the slope of the valleys that incline towards the dwelling of Ar, leans on the border 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.”
From there they travelled to Beer; that is the well of which the LORD said to Moses, “Gather the people together, and I will 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 Israel sang this song: “Spring up, well! Sing to it,
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,
the well, which the princes dug, which the nobles of the people dug, with the sceptre, and with their poles.” From the wilderness they travelled 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 to the valley that is in the field of Moab, to the top of Pisgah, which looks down on the desert.
21 Na mwet Israel supwala mwet utuk kas nu sel Sihon, tokosra lun mwet Amor, ac fahk:
Israel sent messengers to 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 your land. We will not turn away into field or 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 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.
Sihon would not allow Israel to pass through his border, but Sihon gathered all his people together, and went out against Israel into the wilderness, and came to Jahaz. He fought against 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!
Israel struck him with the edge of the sword, and possessed his land from the Arnon to the Jabbok, even to the children of Ammon; for the border of the children of Ammon was fortified.
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.
Israel took all these cities. Israel lived in all the cities of the Amorites, in Heshbon, and in all its 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 Heshbon was the city of Sihon the king of the Amorites, who had fought against the former king of Moab, and taken all his land out of his hand, even to the 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.
Therefore those who speak in proverbs say, “Come to Heshbon. Let the city of Sihon be built and established;
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 has gone out of Heshbon, a flame from the city of Sihon. It has devoured Ar of Moab, The lords of the high places of the 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 you, Moab! You are undone, people of Chemosh! He has given his sons as fugitives, and his daughters into captivity, to Sihon king of the Amorites.
30 Tusruktu fwilin tulik natulos kunausyukla, Mutawauk Heshbon lac na nwe Dibon, Liki acn Nashim nwe Nophah, apkuran nu Medeba.”
We have shot at them. Heshbon has perished even to Dibon. We have laid waste even to Nophah, Which reaches to Medeba.”
31 Ouinge mwet Israel oakwuki in acn lun mwet Amor,
Thus Israel lived 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.
Moses sent to spy out Jazer. They took its villages, and drove out the Amorites who 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.
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 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.”
The LORD said to Moses, “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, who lived at 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 they struck him, with his sons and all his people, until there were no survivors; and they possessed his land.
