They traveled from Mount Hor by the way to the Sea of Suf [Reed Sea], to go around the land of Edom [Red] The soul of the people was very discouraged because of the journey.
5 I vikaše narod na Boga i na Mojsija: zašto nas izvedoste iz Misira da izginemo u ovoj pustinji? Jer nema ni hljeba ni vode, a ovaj se nikaki hljeb veæ ogadio duši našoj.
The people spoke against God, and against Moses [Drawn out], “Why have you brought us up out of Egypt [Abode of slavery] to die in the wilderness? For there is no bread, and there is no water; and our soul loathes this light bread.”
6 A Gospod pusti na narod zmije vatrene, koje ih ujedahu, te pomrije mnogo naroda u Izrailju.
Adonai sent fiery serpents among the people, and they bit the people. Many people of Israel [God prevails] died.

The people came to Moses [Drawn out], and said, “We have sinned ·deviated (from the standard goal)·, because we have spoken against Adonai, and against you. Pray to Adonai, that he take away the serpents from us.” Moses [Drawn out] prayed for the people.

10 Potom poðoše sinovi Izrailjevi, i stadoše u oko u Ovotu.
The children of Israel [God prevails] traveled, and encamped in Oboth.
11 I iz Ovota otišavši stadoše u oko na brdima Avarimskim u pustinji koja je prema Moavskoj s istoka.

From there they traveled, and encamped in the valley of Zered.
13 I odatle otišavši stadoše u oko na brodu na Arnonu, koji je u pustinji i izlazi od meðe Amorejske. Jer je Arnon meða Moavska izmeðu Moavaca i Amorejaca.
From there they traveled, and encamped on the other side of the Arnon, which is in the wilderness, that comes out of the border of the Amorites [Descendants of Talkers]: for the Arnon is the border of Moab [From father], between Moab [From father] and the Amorites [Descendants of Talkers].
14 Zato se kaže u knjizi o ratovima Gospodnjim: na Vajeva u Sufi i na potoke Arnonske.
Therefore it is said in the book of the Wars of Adonai, “Vaheb in Suphah, the valleys of the Arnon,
15 Jer ti potoci, koji dopiru do mjesta Ara, teku pokraj meðe Moavske.
the slope of the valleys that incline toward the dwelling of Ar, leans on the border of Moab [From father].”
16 A otuda doðoše k Viru; to je studenac za koji bješe rekao Gospod Mojsiju: skupi narod, i daæu im vode.
From there they traveled to Beer; that is the well of which Adonai said to Moses [Drawn out], “Gather the people together, and I will give them water.”
17 Tada pjeva Izrailj pjesmu ovu: Diži se, studenèe; pripijevajte ga;
Then Israel [God prevails] sang this song: “Spring up, well! Sing to it,
18 Studenèe, koji kopaše knezovi, koji iskopaše poglavari narodni s onijem koji postavi zakon, palicama svojim. A iz pustinje otidoše u Mantanail,

21 Tada posla Izrailj poslanike k Sionu caru Amorejskom govoreæi:
Israel [God prevails] sent messengers to Sihon king of the Amorites [Descendants of Talkers], saying,
22 Pusti da proðemo kroz tvoju zemlju, neæemo svrtati ni u polje ni u vinograd, niti æemo piti vode iz studenaca; iæi æemo carskim putem dokle ne prijeðemo meðu tvoju.
“Let me pass through your land. We will not turn aside into field, or into 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 Ali ne dade Sion Izrailju da proðe kroz zemlju njegovu, nego sabra Sion sav narod svoj, i izaðe na Izrailja u pustinju, i doðe u Jasu, i pobi se s Izrailjem.
Sihon would not allow Israel [God prevails] to pass through his border, but Sihon gathered all his people together, and went out against Israel [God prevails] into the wilderness, and came to Jahaz. He fought against Israel [God prevails].
24 Ali ga isijeèe Izrailj oštrim maèem, i osvoji zemlju njegovu od Arnona pa do Javoka do sinova Amonovijeh, jer tvrda bješe meða sinova Amonovijeh.
Israel [God prevails] struck him with the edge of the sword, and possessed his land from the Arnon to the Jabbok, even to the children of Ammon [Tribal people]; for the border of the children of Ammon [Tribal people] was strong.
25 I uze Izrailj sva ona mjesta i naseli se u svijem gradovima Amorejskim, u Esevonu i u svijem selima njegovijem.
Israel [God prevails] took all these cities. Israel [God prevails] lived in all the cities of the Amorites [Descendants of Talkers], in Heshbon, and in all its villages.
26 Jer Esevon bješe grad Siona cara Amorejskoga, koji bješe prvi zavojštio na cara Moavskoga i bješe mu uzeo svu zemlju njegovu do Arnona.
For Heshbon was the city of Sihon the king of the Amorites [Descendants of Talkers], who had fought against the former king of Moab [From father], and taken all his land out of his hand, even to the Arnon.
27 Zato govore u prièi: hodite u Esevon, da se sagradi i podigne grad Sionov.
Therefore those who speak in proverbs say, “Come to Heshbon. Let the city of Sihon be built and established;
28 Jer oganj izaðe iz Esevona, plamen iz grada Sionova, i spali Ar Moavski i stanovnike na visini Arnonskoj.
for a fire has gone out of Heshbon, a flame from the city of Sihon. It has devoured Ar of Moab [From father], The lords of the high places of the Arnon.
29 Teško tebi, Moave; propao si, narode Hamosov; dao je sinove svoje koji utekoše i kæeri svoje u ropstvo Sionu caru Amorejskom.
Woe to you, Moab [From father]! You are undone, people of Chemosh! He has given his sons as fugitives, and his daughters into captivity, to Sihon king of the Amorites [Descendants of Talkers].
30 Ali ih postrijeljasmo, propade Esevon do Devona, i potrsmo ih do Nofe, koja dopire do Medeve.
We have shot at them. Heshbon has perished even to Dibon. We have laid waste even to Nophah, Which reaches to Medeba.”
31 I tako živje Izrailj u zemlji Amorejskoj.
Thus Israel [God prevails] lived in the land of the Amorites [Descendants of Talkers].
32 Potom posla Mojsije da uhode Jazir, i uzeše sela oko njega, i izagnaše Amorejce koji bijahu ondje.
Moses [Drawn out] sent to spy out Jazer. They took its villages, and drove out the Amorites [Descendants of Talkers] who were there.
33 Potom obrativši se poðoše u Vasan; i izide Og car Vasanski pred njih, on i sav narod njegov na boj u Edrajin.
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 A Gospod reèe Mojsiju: ne boj ga se; jer sam ga dao u tvoje ruke i sav narod njegov i zemlju njegovu; i uèini mu kako si uèinio Sionu caru Amorejskom koji življaše u Esevonu.
Adonai said to Moses [Drawn out], “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 [Descendants of Talkers], who lived at Heshbon.”
35 I pobiše ga i sinove njegove i sav narod njegov, da ne osta nijedan, i osvojiše zemlju njegovu.
So they struck him, with his sons and all his people, until there were no survivors; and they possessed his land.
