Deuteronomii 2
1 profectique inde venimus in solitudinem quae ducit ad mare Rubrum sicut mihi dixerat Dominus et circumivimus montem Seir longo tempore
Then we turned, and took our journey into the wilderness by the way to the Red Sea, as Jehovah spoke to me; and we encircled Mount Seir many days.
2 dixitque Dominus ad me
Jehovah spoke to me, saying,
3 sufficit vobis circumire montem istum ite contra aquilonem
"You have encircled this mountain long enough. Turn northward.
4 et populo praecipe dicens transibitis per terminos fratrum vestrorum filiorum Esau qui habitant in Seir et timebunt vos
Command the people, saying, 'You are to pass through the border of your brothers the descendants of Esau, who dwell in Seir; and they will be afraid of you: take good heed to yourselves therefore;
5 videte ergo diligenter ne moveamini contra eos neque enim dabo vobis de terra eorum quantum potest unius pedis calcare vestigium quia in possessionem Esau dedi montem Seir
do not contend with them; for I will not give you of their land, no, not so much as for the sole of the foot to tread on; because I have given Mount Seir to Esau for a possession.
6 cibos emetis ab eis pecunia et comedetis aquam emptam haurietis et bibetis
You shall purchase food of them for money, that you may eat; and you shall also buy water of them for money, that you may drink.'"
7 Dominus Deus tuus benedixit tibi in omni opere manuum tuarum novit iter tuum quomodo transieris solitudinem hanc magnam per quadraginta annos habitans tecum Dominus Deus tuus et nihil tibi defuit
For Jehovah your God has blessed you in all the work of your hand; he has known your walking through this great wilderness: these forty years Jehovah your God has been with you; you have lacked nothing.
8 cumque transissemus fratres nostros filios Esau qui habitabant in Seir per viam campestrem de Helath et de Asiongaber venimus ad iter quod ducit in desertum Moab
So we passed by from our brothers the descendants of Esau, who dwell in Seir, from the way of the Arabah from Eilat and from Ezion Geber. We turned and passed by the way of the wilderness of Moab.
9 dixitque Dominus ad me non pugnes contra Moabitas nec ineas adversum eos proelium non enim dabo tibi quicquam de terra eorum quia filiis Loth tradidi Ar in possessionem
Jehovah said to me, "Do not bother Moab, neither contend with them in battle; for I will not give you of his land for a possession; because I have given Ar to the descendants of Lot for a possession."
10 Emim primi fuerunt habitatores eius populus magnus et validus et tam excelsus ut de Enacim stirpe
(The Emim lived there before, a people great, and many, and tall, as the Anakim:
11 quasi gigantes crederentur et essent similes filiorum Enacim denique Moabitae appellant eos Emim
these also are accounted Rephaim, as the Anakim; but the Moabites call them Emim.
12 in Seir autem prius habitaverunt Horim quibus expulsis atque deletis habitaverunt filii Esau sicut fecit Israhel in terra possessionis suae quam dedit ei Dominus
The Horites also lived in Seir before, but the descendants of Esau succeeded them; and they destroyed them from before them, and lived in their place; as Israel did to the land of his possession, which Jehovah gave to them.)
13 surgentes ergo ut transiremus torrentem Zared venimus ad eum
"Now rise up, and cross over the Wadi Zered." So we went over the Wadi Zered.
14 tempus autem quo ambulavimus de Cadesbarne usque ad transitum torrentis Zared triginta octo annorum fuit donec consumeretur omnis generatio hominum bellatorum de castris sicut iuraverat Dominus
The days in which we came from Kadesh Barnea, until we had come over the Wadi Zered, were thirty-eight years; until all the generation of the men of war were consumed from the midst of the camp, as Jehovah swore to them.
15 cuius manus fuit adversum eos ut interirent de castrorum medio
Moreover the hand of God was against them, to destroy them from the midst of the camp, until they were consumed.
16 postquam autem universi ceciderunt pugnatores
So it happened, when all the men of war were consumed and dead from among the people,
17 locutus est Dominus ad me dicens
that Jehovah spoke to me, saying,
18 tu transibis hodie terminos Moab urbem nomine Ar
"You are this day to pass over Ar, the border of Moab:
19 et accedens in vicina filiorum Ammon cave ne pugnes contra eos nec movearis ad proelium non enim dabo tibi de terra filiorum Ammon quia filiis Loth dedi eam in possessionem
and when you come near over against the people of Ammon, do not bother them, nor contend with them; for I will not give you of the land of the people of Ammon for a possession; because I have given it to the people of Lot for a possession."
20 terra gigantum reputata est et in ipsa olim habitaverunt gigantes quos Ammanitae vocant Zomzommim
(That also is accounted a land of Rephaim: Rephaim lived in it before; but the Ammonites call them Zamzummim,
21 populus magnus et multus et procerae longitudinis sicut Enacim quos delevit Dominus a facie eorum et fecit illos habitare pro eis
a people great, and many, and tall, as the Anakim; but Jehovah destroyed them before them; and they succeeded them, and lived in their place;
22 sicut fecerat filiis Esau qui habitant in Seir delens Horreos et terram eorum illis tradens quam possident usque in praesens
as he did for the descendants of Esau, who dwell in Seir, when he destroyed the Horites from before them; and they succeeded them, and lived in their place even to this day:
23 Eveos quoque qui habitabant in Aserim usque Gazam Cappadoces expulerunt qui egressi de Cappadocia deleverunt eos et habitaverunt pro illis
and the Avvim, who lived in villages as far as Gaza, the Caphtorim, who came forth out of Caphtor, destroyed them, and lived in their place.)
24 surgite et transite torrentem Arnon ecce tradidi in manu tua Seon regem Esebon Amorreum et terram eius incipe possidere et committe adversum eum proelium
"Rise up, take your journey, and pass over the Valley of the Arnon: look, I have given into your hand Sihon the Amorite, king of Heshbon, and his land; begin to possess it, and contend with him in battle.
25 hodie incipiam mittere terrorem atque formidinem tuam in populos qui habitant sub omni caelo ut audito nomine tuo paveant et in morem parturientium contremescant et dolore teneantur
This day will I begin to put the dread of you and the fear of you on the peoples who are under the whole sky, who shall hear the report of you, and shall tremble, and be in anguish because of you."
26 misi ergo nuntios de solitudine Cademoth ad Seon regem Esebon verbis pacificis dicens
I sent messengers out of the wilderness of Kedemoth to Sihon king of Heshbon with words of peace, saying,
27 transibimus per terram tuam publica gradiemur via non declinabimus neque ad dextram neque ad sinistram
"Let me pass through your land: I will go along by the highway, I will turn neither to the right hand nor to the left.
28 alimenta pretio vende nobis ut vescamur aquam pecunia tribue et sic bibemus tantum est ut nobis concedas transitum
You shall sell me food for money, that I may eat; and give me water for money, that I may drink: only let me pass through on my feet,
29 sicut fecerunt filii Esau qui habitant in Seir et Moabitae qui morantur in Ar donec veniamus ad Iordanem et transeamus in terram quam Dominus Deus noster daturus est nobis
as the people of Esau who dwell in Seir, and the Moabites who dwell in Ar, did to me; until I shall pass over the Jordan into the land which Jehovah our God gives us."
30 noluitque Seon rex Esebon dare nobis transitum quia induraverat Dominus Deus tuus spiritum eius et obfirmaverat cor illius ut traderetur in manus tuas sicut nunc vides
But Sihon king of Heshbon would not let us pass by him; for Jehovah your God hardened his spirit, and made his heart obstinate, that he might deliver him into your hand, as at this day.
31 dixitque Dominus ad me ecce coepi tradere tibi Seon et terram eius incipe possidere eam
Jehovah said to me, "Look, I have begun to deliver up Sihon and his land before you: begin to possess, that you may inherit his land."
32 egressusque est Seon obviam nobis cum omni populo suo ad proelium in Iesa
Then Sihon came out against us, he and all his people, to battle at Jahaz.
33 et tradidit eum Dominus Deus noster nobis percussimusque eum cum filiis et omni populo suo
Jehovah our God delivered him up before us; and we struck him, and his sons, and all his people.
34 cunctasque urbes in tempore illo cepimus interfectis habitatoribus earum viris ac mulieribus et parvulis non reliquimus in eis quicquam
We took all his cities at that time, and utterly destroyed every inhabited city, with the women and the little ones; we left none remaining:
35 absque iumentis quae in partem venere praedantium et spoliis urbium quas cepimus
only the livestock we took for a prey to ourselves, with the spoil of the cities which we had taken.
36 ab Aroer quae est super ripam torrentis Arnon oppido quod in valle situm est usque Galaad non fuit vicus et civitas quae nostras effugeret manus omnes tradidit Dominus Deus noster nobis
From Aroer, which is on the edge of the Valley of the Arnon, and the city that is in the valley, even to Gilead, there was not a city too high for us; Jehovah our God delivered up all before us:
37 absque terra filiorum Ammon ad quam non accessimus et cunctis quae adiacent torrenti Ieboc et urbibus montanis universisque locis a quibus nos prohibuit Dominus Deus noster
only to the land of the people of Ammon you did not come near; all the side of the river Jabbok, and the cities of the hill country, and wherever Jehovah our God forbade us.
