Nomery 32

1 Ary nanana omby aman’ ondry be indrindra ny taranak’ i Robena sy ny taranak’ i Gada; ary rehefa nahita ny tany Jazera sy ny tany Gileada izy, fa tany tsara ho fiandrasana omby aman’ ondry io,

Now the children of Reuben and the children of Gad had a very great multitude of cattle: and when they saw the land of Jazer, and the land of Gilead, that, behold, the place was a place for cattle;

2 dia avy ny taranak’ i Gada sy ny taranak’ i Robena ka niteny tamin’ i Mosesy sy Eleazara mpisorona sy tamin’ ny lohan’ ny fiangonana ka nanao hoe:

The children of Gad and the children of Reuben came and spoke to Moses, and to Eleazar the priest, and to the princes of the congregation, saying,

3 Atarota sy Dibona sy Jazera sy Nimra sy Hesbona sy Elale sy Sebama sy Nebo ary Beona,

Ataroth, and Dibon, and Jazer, and Nimrah, and Heshbon, and Elealeh, and Shebam, and Nebo, and Beon,

4 ireo tany noresen’ i Jehovah teo anoloan’ ny fiangonan’ ny Isiraely, dia tany tsara ho fiandrasana omby aman’ ondry, ary ny mpanomponao manana omby aman’ ondry;

Even the country which the LORD smote before the congregation of Israel, is a land for cattle, and thy servants have cattle:

5 dia hoy koa izy: Raha mahita fitia eo imasonao izahay; aoka homena anay mpanomponao ho zara-taninay io tany io; fa aza ampitaina an’ i Jordana izahay.

Therefore, said they, if we have found grace in thy sight, let this land be given to thy servants for a possession, and bring us not over Jordan.

6 Dia hoy Mosesy tamin’ ny taranak’ i Gada sy ny taranak’ i Robena: Ny rahalahinareo handeha hanafika, ka ianareo kosa hijanona eto va?

And Moses said to the children of Gad and to the children of Reuben, Shall your brethren go to war, and shall ye sit here?

7 Nahoana ianareo no mampiketraka ny fon’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely, mba tsy handehanany ho any amin’ ny tany izay nomen’ i Jehovah azy?

And why discourage ye the heart of the children of Israel from going over into the land which the LORD hath given them?

8 Izany no nataon’ ny rainareo, fony nirahiko avy tao Kadesi-barnea hisafo ny tany izy;

Thus did your fathers, when I sent them from Kadeshbarnea to see the land.

9 fa raha niakatra hatrany an-dohasaha Eskola izy ka nahita ny tany, dia nampiketraka ny fon’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely izy, mba tsy handehanany ho any amin’ ny tany izay efa nomen’ i Jehovah azy.

For when they went up to the valley of Eshcol, and saw the land, they discouraged the heart of the children of Israel, that they should not go into the land which the LORD had given them.

10 Ary nirehitra ny fahatezeran’ i Jehovah tamin’ izay andro izay, dia nianiana Izy ka nanao hoe:

And the LORD’S anger was kindled the same time, and he swore, saying,

11 Ny olona izay niakatra avy tany Egypta, hatramin’ ny roa-polo taona no ho miakatra, dia tsy hisy hahita ny tany izay efa nianianako tamin’ i Abrahama sy Isaka ary Jakoba homena azy, satria tsy tanteraka tamin’ ny fanarahana Ahy izy;

Surely none of the men that came up from Egypt, from twenty years old and upward, shall see the land which I swore to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob; because they have not wholly followed me:

12 afa-tsy Kaleba, zanak’ i Jefone Kenizita, sy Josoa, zanak’ i Nona, izay tanteraka tamin’ ny fanarahana an’ i Jehovah.

Except Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenezite, and Joshua the son of Nun: for they have wholly followed the LORD.

13 Dia nirehitra tamin’ ny Isiraely ny fahatezeran’ i Jehovah, ka nampirenireny azy tany an-efitra efa-polo taona Izy mandra-pahalany ritra ny taranaka rehetra izay nanao ratsy teo imason’ i Jehovah.

And the LORD’S anger was kindled against Israel, and he made them wander in the wilderness forty years, until all the generation, that had done evil in the sight of the LORD, was consumed.

14 Ary, indreto, ianareo mitsangana hisolo ny rainareo, ho taranaka mbola mpanota, hampitombo ny firehetan’ ny fahatezeran’ i Jehovah amin’ ny Isiraely.

And, behold, ye have risen up in your fathers’ stead, an increase of sinful men, to augment yet the fierce anger of the LORD toward Israel.

15 Fa raha miala amin’ ny fanarahana Azy ianareo dia hamela azy any an-efitra Indray Izy; ka dia ianareo no handringana izao olona rehetra izao.

For if ye turn away from after him, he will yet again leave them in the wilderness; and he shall destroy all this people.

16 Ary dia nanatona azy izy ireo ka nanao hoe: Hanao vala eto izahay ho an’ ny omby aman’ ondrinay sy tanàna koa ho an’ ny zanakay madinika;

And they came near to him, and said, We will build sheepfolds here for our cattle, and cities for our little ones:

17 fa ny tenanay dia hiomana faingana handroso eo alohan’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely mandra-pitondranay azy ho any amin’ ny taniny; ary ny zanakay madinika dia hitoetra amin’ ny tanàna mimanda noho ny mponina amin’ ny tany.

But we ourselves will go ready armed before the children of Israel, until we have brought them to their place: and our little ones shall dwell in the fortified cities because of the inhabitants of the land.

18 Tsy hody any an-tranonay izahay, mandra-pahazon’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely ny zara-taniny avy.

We will not return to our houses, until the children of Israel have inherited every man his inheritance.

19 Fa tsy hiara-mandray zara-tany aminy izahay hatrany an-dafin’ i Jordana no ho miankandrefana, satria efa azonay atỳ an-dafy atsinanan’ i Jordana atỳ ny zara-taninay.

For we will not inherit with them on the other side of Jordan, or beyond; because our inheritance hath fallen to us on this side of Jordan eastward.

20 Dia hoy Mosesy taminy: Raha hanao izany zavatra izany ianareo ka hiomana eo anatrehan’ i Jehovah ho any an-tafika,

And Moses said to them, If ye will do this thing, if ye will go armed before the LORD to war,

21 ary rehefa samy efa voaomana hiady, dia hita ho any an-dafin’ i Jordana eo anatrehan’ i Jehovah, mandra-pandroakany ny fahavalony hiala eo anoloany,

And will go all of you armed over Jordan before the LORD, until he hath driven out his enemies from before him,

22 ka ho resy eo anatrehan’ i Jehovah ny tany; ary rehefa vita izany, dia hody ianareo ka tsy hanan-tsiny, na amin’ i Jehovah, na amin’ ny Isiraely; ary ity tany ity ho zara-taninareo eo anatrehan’ i Jehovah.

And the land shall be subdued before the LORD: then afterward ye shall return, and be guiltless before the LORD, and before Israel; and this land shall be your possession before the LORD.

23 Fa raha tsy hanao izany kosa ianareo, dia manota amin’ i Jehovah; ary aoka ho fantatrareo fa hanody anareo ny fahotanareo.

But if ye will not do so, behold, ye have sinned against the LORD: and be sure your sin will find you out.

24 Manaova tanàna ho an’ ny zanakareo madinika sy vala ho an’ ny ondry aman’ osinareo, ka ataovy izay naloaky ny vavanareo.

Build for yourselves cities for your little ones, and folds for your sheep; and do that which hath proceeded out of your mouth.

25 Dia niteny tamin’ i Mosesy ny taranak’ i Gada sy ny taranak’ i Robena ka nanao hoe: Ny mpanomponao dia hanao araka izay andidianao, tompoko:

And the children of Gad and the children of Reuben spoke to Moses, saying, Thy servants will do as my lord commandeth.

26 ny zanakay madinika sy ny vadinay sy ny ondry aman’ osinay ary ny biby fiompinay rehetra dia hitoetra ato amin’ ny tanànan’ i Gileada;

Our little ones, our wives, our flocks, and all our cattle, shall be there in the cities of Gilead:

27 fa ny mpanomponao handeha hita, samy efa voaomana hiady eo anatrehan’ i Jehovah, ho any an-tafika, araka izay nolazainao, tompoko.

But thy servants will pass over, every man armed for war, before the LORD to battle, as my lord saith.

28 Ary Mosesy dia nandidy an’ i Eleazara mpisorona sy Josoa, zanak’ i Nona, ary ny lohan’ ny fianakaviana tamin’ ny firenen’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely ny amin’ ireo

So concerning them Moses commanded Eleazar the priest, and Joshua the son of Nun, and the chief fathers of the tribes of the children of Israel:

29 ka nanao taminy hoe: Raha handeha hita an’ i Jordana hiaraka aminareo ny taranak’ i Gada sy ny taranak’ i Robena, samy efa voaomana hiady eo anatrehan’ i Jehovah, ka ho resy ny tany eo anoloanareo, dia homenareo azy ny tany Gileada ho zara-taniny;

And Moses said to them, If the children of Gad and the children of Reuben will pass with you over Jordan, every man armed for battle, before the LORD, and the land shall be subdued before you; then ye shall give them the land of Gilead for a possession:

30 fa raha tsy mandeha samy efa voaomana hiady miaraka aminareo Izy, dia eo aminareo amin’ ny tany Kanana ihany no hahazoany zara-tany.

But if they will not pass over with you armed, they shall have possessions among you in the land of Canaan.

31 Dia namaly ny taranak’ i Gada sy ny taranak’ i Robena ka nanao hoe: Araka izay nolazain’ i Jehovah tamin’ ny mpanomponao no hataonay:

And the children of Gad and the children of Reuben answered, saying, As the LORD hath said to thy servants, so will we do.

32 Izabay handeha hita eo anatrehan’ i Jehovah ho any amin’ ny tany Kanana samy efa voaomana hiady, kanefa etỳ an-dafin’ i Jordana etỳ ihany no hahazoanay zara-tany.

We will pass over armed before the LORD into the land of Canaan, that the possession of our inheritance on this side Jordan may be ours.

33 Dia nomen’ i Mosesy ho an’ ny taranak’ i Gada sy ny taranak’ i Robena ary ny an-tsasaky ny firenen’ i Manase, zanak’ i Josefa, ny fanjakan’ i Sihona, mpanjakan’ ny Amorka, sy ny fanjakan’ i Oga, mpanjakan’ i Basana dia ny tany mbamin’ ny tanànany ao amin’ ny fari-tany, dia ny tanàna eny amin’ ny tany manodidina.

And Moses gave to them, even to the children of Gad, and to the children of Reuben, and to half the tribe of Manasseh the son of Joseph, the kingdom of Sihon king of the Amorites, and the kingdom of Og king of Bashan, the land, with its cities within the borders, even the cities of the surrounding country.

34 Ary ny taranak’ i Gada nanao an’ i Dibona sy Atarota sy Aroera

And the children of Gad built Dibon, and Ataroth, and Aroer,

35 sy Atrota-sofana sy Jazera ary Jogbeha

And Atroth, Shophan, and Jaazer, and Jogbehah,

36 sy Beti-nimra sy Beti-harana, tanàna mimanda, ary vala ho an’ ny ondry.

And Bethnimrah, and Bethharan, fortified cities: and folds for sheep.

37 Ary ny taranak’ i Robena nanao an’ i Hesbona sy Elale sy Kiriataima

And the children of Reuben built Heshbon, and Elealeh, and Kirjathaim,

38 sy Nebo sy Bala-meona (nefa novana ny anaran’ ireo) ary Sibma; ary nasiany anarana vaovao ny tanàna izay nataony.

And Nebo, and Baalmeon, (their names being changed, ) and Shibmah: and gave other names to the cities which they built.

39 Ary ny taranak’ i Makira, zanak’ i Manase, nankany Gileada ka nahafaka azy, dia nandroaka ny Amorita izay nonina teo.

And the children of Machir the son of Manasseh went to Gilead, and took it, and dispossessed the Amorite who was in it.

40 Ary Gileada dia nomen’ i Mosesy an’ i Makira, zanak’ i Manase, ka nonina tao izy.

And Moses gave Gilead to Machir the son of Manasseh; and he dwelt in it.

41 Ary Jaïra, zanak’ i Manase, nandeha ka nahafaka ny tanàna madinika teo, ary ny anarany nataony hoe Havota-jaïra.

And Jair the son of Manasseh went and took its small towns, and called them Havothjair.

42 Ary Noba nandeha ka nahafaka an’ i Kenata sy ny zana-bohiny, dia nataony hoe Noba, araka ny anarany izy.

And Nobah went and took Kenath, and its villages, and called it Nobah, after his own name.
