Dhuteronomi 2
1 Zvino takadzoka tikafamba takananga kurenje nenzira inoenda kuGungwa Dzvuku, sezvandakanga ndarayirwa naJehovha. Kwenguva yakareba takafamba nenzira yaipoterera nenyika yamakomo yeSeiri.
Then we turned, and took our journey into the wilderness by the way of the Red Sea, as the Lord had spoken unto me: and we traveled around mount Seir many days.
2 Ipapo Jehovha akati kwandiri,
And the Lord said unto me, as followeth,
3 “Mafamba nenzira yokupoterera nyika iyi yamakomo kwenguva yakakwana, zvino chidzokai muende nechokumusoro.
Ye have traveled long enough around this mountain; turn yourselves northward.
4 Rayira vanhu uti, ‘Mava pedyo kuti mupfuure nomunyika yehama dzenyu zvizvarwa zvaEsau, vagere paSeiri. Ivo vachakutyai, asi muchenjere kwazvo.
And the people command thou, saying, Ye are passing by the border of your brethren the children of Esau, who dwell in Seir; and they will be afraid of you; therefore take ye good heed unto yourselves;
5 Musavatanga kuti murwe, handingakupei chikamu chipi zvacho chenyika yavo, kunyange pangakwana kuisa rutsoka rwenyu. Ndakapa Esau nyika yamakomo yeSeiri kuti ive yake.
Do not contend with them; for I will not give unto you of their land, even so much as a foot's breadth; because unto Esau have I given mount Seir for an inheritance.
6 Munofanira kuvaripa nesirivha zvokudya zvamuchadya nemvura yamuchanwa.’”
Food shall ye buy of them for money, that ye may eat; and water also shall ye buy of them for money, that ye may drink.
7 Jehovha Mwari wenyu akakuropafadzai pamabasa ose amaoko enyu. Akakutarirai parwendo rwenyu murenje iri guru. Jehovha Mwari wenyu akava nemi, makore makumi mana aya, uye hapana chinhu chamakashayiwa.
For the Lord thy God hath blessed thee in all the works of thy hand; he hath provided for thy wandering through this great wilderness: these forty years the Lord thy God hath been with thee; thou hast lacked nothing.
8 Naizvozvo takapfuura hama dzedu zvizvarwa zvaEsau, vanogara muSeiri. Takasiya nzira inoenda kuArabha, yeArabha, inobva kuErati neEzioni Gebheri, ndokufamba nenzira yomurenje reMoabhu.
And we passed away from our brethren the children of Esau, who dwell in Seir, from the way through the plain, from Elath, and from 'Ezyon-gaber. And we turned and passed the way of the wilderness of Moab.
9 Ipapo Jehovha akataura kwandiri, akati, “Musafurusa vaMoabhu kana kuvadenha, nokuti handizokupai chikamu chipi zvacho chenyika yavo. Ndakapa Ari kuzvizvarwa zvaRoti kuti ive yavo.”
And the Lord said unto me, Do not attack the Moabites, nor contend with them in battle; for I will not give thee from their land any inheritance, because unto the children of Lot have I given 'Ar for an inheritance.
10 (VaEmi vaisigarako vaiva vanhu vakasimba, vakawanda uye vakareba savaAnaki.
The Emim in times past dwelt therein, a people great, and numerous, and tall as the 'Anakim;
11 SavaAnaki ivowo vaionekwa savaRefaimu, asi vaMoabhu vaivadana nezita rokuti vaEmi.
As Rephaim were also they accounted, equally with the 'Anakim; and the Moabites called the[[m]] Emim.
12 VaHori vaimbogarawo muSeiri, asi vana vaEsau vakavadzinga kubva imomo. Vakaparadza vaHori vakanga varimo ivo vasati vavamo vakagara munzvimbo yavo, sezvakangoitawo Israeri munyika yavakapiwa naJehovha kuti ive yavo).
And in Seir dwelt the Chorim in times past; but the children of Esau drove them out, and they destroyed them from before them, and dwelt in their stead; as Israel hath done unto the land of his inheritance, which the Lord hath given unto them.
13 Uye Jehovha akati, “Zvino chisimukai muyambuke Mupata weZeredhi.” Saka takayambuka mupata.
Now rise up, and get you over the brook Zered; and we passed over the brook Zered.
14 Makore makumi matatu namasere akanga apfuura kubva panguva yatakabva paKadheshi Bharinea kusvikira patakazoyambuka Mupata weZeredhi. Panguva iyoyi chizvarwa chose chavarume vezera rokurwa chakanga chaparara kubva pamisasa, sezvakanga zvapikirwa naJehovha kwavari.
And the time which we came from Kadesh-barnea', until we had passed over the brook Zered, was thirty and eight years; until all the generation of the men of war were spent from out the midst of the camp, as the Lord had sworn unto them.
15 Ruoko rwaJehovha rwakaramba ruchivarwisa kusvikira rwavaparadza zvachose.
And also the hand of the Lord was against them, to destroy them from the midst of the camp; until they were spent.
16 Zvino wokupedzisira pakati pavarume ava vokurwa akati afa,
So it came to pass, when all the men of war were spent by, dying from the midst of the people,
17 Jehovha akati kwandiri,
That the Lord spoke unto me, saying,
18 “Nhasi unofanira kupfuura nomunyika yeMoabhu, paAri.
Thou art passing this day by the border of Moab, by 'Ar,
19 Kana woswedera pedyo navaAmoni, usavafurusa kana kuvadenha kuti murwisane, nokuti handingakupei kuti mutore nyika ipi zvayo yavaAmori. Ndakaipa kuti ive yezvizvarwa zvaRoti.”
And thou comest nigh opposite the children of 'Ammon: do not attack them, nor contend with them; for I will not give unto thee of the land of the children of 'Ammon any inheritance; because unto the children of Lot have I given it for an inheritance.
20 (Naiyowo yainzi inyika yevaRafaimu, vaisimbogaramo; asi vaAmoni vaivadaidza kuti vaZamuzumi.
As the land of Rephaim was it also accounted: Rephaim dwelt therein in times past; and the 'Ammonites called them Zamzummim;
21 Vaiva vanhu vakasimba, vakawanda, uye vakareba savaAnaki. Jehovha akavaparadza pamberi pavaAmoni, avo vakavadzinga ndokugara munzvimbo yavo.
A people great, and numerous, and tall, as the 'Anakim; but the Lord destroyed them before them; and they drove them out, and dwelt in their stead:
22 Jehovha akanga aitira zvimwe chetezvo kuzvizvarwa zvaEsau, vaigara muSeiri, paakaparadza vaHori pamberi pavo. Vakavadzinga ndokugara munzvimbo yavo kusvikira nhasi.
As he hath done to the children of Esau, who dwell in Seir, from before whom he destroyed the Chorim; and they drove them out and dwelt in their stead, even unto this day.
23 Uye kana vari vaAvhi vakanga vagere mumisha kusvikira kuGaza, vaKafitori vaibva Kafitori vakavaparadza ndokugara munzvimbo yavo.)
And the 'Avvim, who dwelt in open towns, as far as unto Gazzah, —the Caphtorim, who came forth out of Caphtor, destroyed them, and dwelt in their stead.
24 Budai zvino muende, muyambuke mupata weArinoni. Tarirai ndakaisa muruoko rwenyu Sihoni muAmori, mambo weHeshibhoni, nenyika yake. Tangai kuitora mugorwa naye.
Rise ye up, set forward, and pass over the brook Arnon; behold I have given into thy hand Sichon the king of Cheshbon, the Emorite, and his land: begin to drive him out, and contend with him in battle.
25 Nhasi chaiye ndichatanga kuvhundutsa nokutyisa ndudzi dzose dziri pasi pedenga nokuda kwenyu. Ivo vachanzwa guhu pamusoro penyu vagodedera nokutya kwazvo pamusoro penyu.
This day will I begin to put the dread of thee and the fear of thee upon the nations that are under the whole heaven; whoever will hear the report of thee, shall tremble, and shall quake because of thee.
26 Ndakatuma nhume kubva murenje reKedhemoti kuna Sihoni mambo weHeshibhoni ndichikumbira rugare, uye ndikati,
And I sent messengers out of the wilderness of Kedemoth unto Sichon, the king of Cheshbon, with words of peace, saying,
27 “Titenderei kuti tipfuure nomunyika yenyu. Tichafamba nemugwagwa mukuru; hatizotsauki kurudyi kana kuruboshwe.
Let me pass through thy land: always by the highway will I go along; I will not turn unto the right hand or unto the left.
28 Mutitengesere zvokudya nemvura yokunwa nomutengo wazvo wesirivha. Chingotitenderai henyu kuti tipfuure netsoka,
Food shalt thou sell me for money, that I may eat; and water for money shalt thou give me, that I may drink: only let me pass through on foot;
29 sezvatakaitirwa nezvizvarwa zvaEsau vagere muSeiri, nevaMoabhu vagere muAri. Kusvikira tayambuka Jorodhani tichipinda munyika iyo yatinopiwa naJehovha Mwari wedu.”
(As the children of Esau who dwell in Seir, and the Moabites who dwell in 'Ar, have done unto me: ) until that I shall pass over the Jordan into the land which the Lord our God giveth us.
30 Asi Sihoni mambo weHeshibhoni akaramba kutitendera kuti tipfuure nomo. Nokuti Jehovha Mwari wenyu akanga aomesa mweya wake uye akanga arambidza mwoyo wake, kuti agomuisa mumaoko enyu, sezvaaita iye zvino.
But Sichon, the king of Cheshbon, would not suffer our passing by him; for the Lord thy God had hardened his spirit, and had made obstinate his heart, that he might deliver him into thy hand, as [hath happened] this day.
31 Jehovha akati kwandiri, “Tarira ndatanga kuisa Sihoni nenyika yake kwauri. Zvino chitanga kuikunda ugotora nyika yake.”
And the Lord said unto me, Behold, I have begun to give up Sichon and his land before thee: begin to drive him out, that thou mayest inherit his land.
32 Sihoni nehondo yake yose akati auya kuzorwa nesu paJahazi,
And Sichon came out against us, he and all his people, to the battle at Yahaz.
33 Jehovha Mwari wedu akamuisa kwatiri uye takamuparadza, iye pamwe chete navanakomana vake nehondo yake yose.
And the Lord our God gave him up before us; and we smote him, and his sons, and all his people.
34 Panguva iyoyo takatora maguta ake ose tikaaparadza chose, varume navakadzi uye navana. Hapana watakasiya ari mupenyu.
And we conquered all his cities at that time, and devoted every inhabited city, and the women, and the little ones; we left none that escaped.
35 Asi zvipfuwo nezvatakapamba kubva mumaguta takazvitora kuti zvive zvedu.
Only the cattle we took as booty unto ourselves, and the spoil of the cities which we had captured.
36 Kubva paAroeri pamahombekombe oMupata weArinoni, nokubva kuguta rokumupata, kunyange kusvikira kuGireadhi, hakuna kumbova kana neguta rimwe chete rakatikunda. Jehovha Mwari wedu akatipa vose.
From 'Aro'er, which is by the bank of the brook of Arnon, and the city that is in the brook, even unto Gil'ad, there was not one city which was too strong for us; the whole did the Lord our God give up before us.
37 Asi maererano nokurayira kwaJehovha Mwari wedu hamuna kuswedera kunyika ipi zvayo yavaAmoni, kunyange kunyika iri kurutivi rweJabhoki kana kunyika yakapoteredza maguta ari mumakomo.
Only unto the land of the children of 'Ammon didst thou not come nigh, unto the whole margin of the brook Yabbok, and the cities in the mountain, and unto whatsoever the Lord our God had forbidden us.
