Números 21
1 Ouvindo o cananeo, o rei de Harad, que habitava para a banda do sul, que Israel vinha pelo caminho das espias, pelejou contra Israel, e d'elle levou alguns d'elles por prisioneiros.
And when king Arad the Canaanite, who was living toward the south, had heard this, namely, that Israel had arrived by the way of spies, he fought against them. And proving to be the victor, he led away prey from them.
2 Então Israel fez um voto ao Senhor, dizendo: Se totalmente entregares este povo na minha mão, destruirei totalmente as suas cidades.
But Israel, obliging himself by a vow to the Lord, said: “If you deliver this people into my hand, I will wipe away their cities.”
3 O Senhor pois ouviu a voz de Israel, e entregou os cananeos, e os destruiu totalmente, a elles e ás suas cidades: e o nome d'aquelle logar chamou Horma.
And the Lord heard the prayers of Israel, and he delivered the Canaanite, whom they put to death, overthrowing his cities. And they called the name of that place Hormah, that is, Anathema.
4 Então partiram do monte de Hor, pelo caminho do Mar Vermelho, a rodear a terra de Edom: porém a alma do povo angustiou-se n'este caminho.
Then they set out from mount Hor, by the way that leads to the Red Sea, to circle around the land of Edom. And the people began to tire of their journey and hardships.
5 E o povo fallou contra Deus e contra Moysés: Porque nos fizestes subir do Egypto para que morressemos n'este deserto? pois aqui nem pão nem agua ha: e a nossa alma tem fastio d'este pão tão vil
And speaking against God and Moses, they said: “Why did you lead us away from Egypt, so as to die in the wilderness? Bread is lacking; there are no waters. Our soul is now nauseous over this very light food.”
6 Então o Senhor mandou entre o povo serpentes ardentes, que morderam o povo; e morreu muito povo de Israel.
For this reason, the Lord sent fiery serpents among the people, which wounded or killed many of them.
7 Pelo que o povo veiu a Moysés, e disse: Havemos peccado, porquanto temos fallado contra o Senhor e contra ti; ora ao Senhor que tire de nós estas serpentes. Então Moysés orou pelo povo.
And so they went to Moses, and they said: “We have sinned, because we have spoken against the Lord and against you. Pray, so that he may take away these serpents from us.” And Moses prayed for the people.
8 E disse o Senhor a Moysés: Faze-te uma serpente ardente, e põe-n'a sobre uma haste: e será que viverá todo o mordido que attentar para ella.
And the Lord said to him: “Make a bronze serpent, and place it as a sign. Whoever, having been struck, gazes upon it, shall live.”
9 E Moysés fez uma serpente de metal, e pôl-a sobre uma haste; e era que, mordendo alguma serpente a alguem, attentava para a serpente de metal, e ficava vivo.
Therefore, Moses made a bronze serpent, and he placed it as a sign. When those who had been struck gazed upon it, they were healed.
10 Então os filhos de Israel partiram, e alojaram-se em Oboth.
And the sons of Israel, setting out, made camp at Oboth.
11 Depois partiram de Oboth, e alojaram-se nos outeiros de Abarim, no deserto que está defronte de Moab, ao nascente do sol.
Having departed from there, they pitched their tents at Iye-abarim, in the wilderness, which looks out toward Moab, opposite the eastern region.
12 D'ali partiram, e alojaram-se junto ao ribeiro de Zered.
And moving from there, they arrived at the Torrent of Zared.
13 E d'ali partiram, e alojaram-se d'esta banda de Arnon, que está no deserto e sae dos termos dos amorrheos: porque Arnon é o termo de Moab, entre Moab e os amorrheos.
Having left that place behind, they then made camp opposite Arnon, which is in the desert, and which juts out at the borders of the Amorite. For certainly Arnon is at the limit of Moab, dividing the Moabites and the Amorites.
14 Pelo que se diz no livro das guerras do Senhor: Contra Vaheb em Supha, e contra os ribeiros de Arnon,
About this place, it is said in the book of the wars of the Lord: “As he did at the Red Sea, so will he do at the Torrents of Arnon.”
15 E contra a corrente dos ribeiros, que se volve para a situação de Ar, e se encosta aos termos de Moab.
The stones of the torrents were bent, so that they might rest in Ar and lie back within the borders of the Moabites.
16 E d'ali se partiram a Beer; este é o poço do qual o Senhor disse a Moysés: Ajunta o povo, e lhe darei agua
Beyond that place appeared a well, about which the Lord said to Moses: “Gather the people together, and I will give them water.”
17 (Então Israel cantou este cantico: Sobe, poço, cantae d'elle:
Then Israel sang this verse: “Let the well rise up.” They sang:
18 Tu, poço, que cavaram os principes, que escavaram os nobres do povo, e o legislador com os seus bordões): e do deserto partiram para Mattana;
“The well, the leaders dug it, and the commanders of the multitude prepared it, at the direction of the lawgiver, and with their staffs.”
19 E de Mattana a Nahaliel, e de Nahaliel a Bamoth;
They went from the wilderness to Mattanah, from Mattanah to Nahaliel, from Nahaliel to Bamoth,
20 E de Bamoth ao valle que está no campo de Moab, no cume de Pisga, e á vista do deserto.
from Bamoth, a valley in the region of Moab, to the top of Pisgah, which looks out opposite the desert.
21 Então Israel mandou mensageiros a Sehon, rei dos amorrheos, dizendo:
Then Israel sent messengers to Sihon, the king of the Amorites, saying:
22 Deixa-me passar pela tua terra; não nos desviaremos pelos campos nem pelas vinhas: as aguas dos poços não beberemos: iremos pela estrada real até que passemos os teus termos.
“I beg you to permit me to cross through your land. We will not turn aside into the fields or the vineyards. We will not drink waters from the wells. We will travel by the royal way, until we have passed your borders.”
23 Porem Sehon não deixou passar a Israel pelos seus termos; antes Sehon congregou todo o seu povo, e saiu ao encontro de Israel ao deserto, e veiu a Jazha, e pelejou contra Israel.
And he was not willing to allow Israel to cross through his borders. But instead, gathering an army, he went out to meet them in the desert, and he arrived at Jahaz and fought against them.
24 Mas Israel o feriu ao fio da espada, e tomou a sua terra em possessão, desde Arnon até Jabbok, até aos filhos de Ammon: porquanto o termo dos filhos de Ammon era firme.
And he was struck down by them with the edge of the sword, and they possessed his land from Arnon, even to Jabbok and the sons of Ammon. For the borders of the Ammonites were held by a strong fortress.
25 Assim Israel tomou todas estas cidades: e Israel habitou em todas as cidades dos amorrheos, em Hesbon e em todas as suas aldeias.
Therefore, Israel took all his cities and lived in the cities of the Amorite, namely, in Heshbon and its villages.
26 Porque Hesbon era cidade de Sehon, rei dos amorrheos, e tinha pelejado contra o precedente rei dos moabitas, e tinha tomado da sua mão toda a sua terra até Arnon.
Heshbon was the city of Sihon, the king of the Amorites, who fought against the king of Moab. And he took all the land, which had been under his sovereignty, as far as Arnon.
27 Pelo que dizem os que fallam em proverbios: Vinde a Hesbon; edifique-se e fortifique-se a cidade de Sehon.
About this, it is said in the proverb: “Enter into Heshbon. Let the city of Sihon be established and built.
28 Porque fogo saiu de Hesbon, e uma chamma da cidade de Sehon: e consumiu a Ar dos moabitas, e os senhores dos altos de Arnon.
A fire has gone forth from Heshbon, a flame from the town of Sihon, and it has devoured Ar of the Moabites, and the inhabitants of the heights of Arnon.
29 Ai de ti, Moab! perdido és, povo de Chamoz! entregou seus filhos, que iam fugindo, e suas filhas, a ser captivos a Sehon, rei dos amorrheos.
Woe to you, Moab! You are perishing, O people of Chemosh. He gave flight to his sons, and he gave the daughters into captivity, to the king of the Amorites, Sihon.
30 E nós os derribámos: Hesbon perdida é até Dibon, e os assolámos até Nophah, que se estende até Medeba
Their yoke has been scattered from Heshbon even to Dibon. They have passed through, wearily, into Nophah, and as far as Medeba.”
31 Assim Israel habitou na terra dos amorrheos.
And so Israel lived in the land of the Amorite.
32 Depois mandou Moysés espiar a Jaezer, e tomaram as suas aldeias, e d'aquella possessão lançaram os amorrheos que estavam ali.
And Moses sent some to explore Jazer. These captured its villages and possessed its inhabitants.
33 Então viraram-se, e subiram o caminho de Basan: e Og, rei de Basan, saiu contra elles, elle e todo o seu povo, á peleja em Edrei.
And they turned themselves and ascended, along the way of Bashan. And Og, the king of Bashan, met them with all his people, to fight at Edrei.
34 E disse o Senhor a Moysés: Não o temas, porque eu t'o tenho dado na tua mão, a elle, e a todo o seu povo, e a sua terra, e far-lhe-has como fizeste a Sehon, rei dos amorrheos, que habitava em Hesbon.
And the Lord said to Moses: “Do not be afraid of him. For I have delivered him, and all his people, as well as his land, into your hand. And you shall do to him just as you did to Sihon, the king of the Amorites, the inhabitant of Heshbon.”
35 E de tal maneira o feriram, a elle e a seus filhos, e a todo o seu povo, que nenhum d'elles escapou: e tomaram a sua terra em possessão.
Therefore, they struck him down also, with his sons, and all his people, even to utter destruction, and they possessed his land.
