Torati 2
1 Kisha tuligeuka na kuanza safari kuelekea jangwani kwa njia ya Bahari ya Mianzi, kama Yahwe alivyosema nami, tulienda kuzunguka mlima wa Seir kwa siku nyingi.
And we turned and we set out the wilderness towards [the] way of [the] sea of reed[s] just as he had spoken Yahweh to me and we went around [the] hill country of Seir days many.
2 Yahwe alizungumza nami, kusema,
And he said Yahweh to me saying.
3 Mmeuzungunga mlima huu kwa muda mrefu; geukeni kaskazini.
[is] enough For you going round the hill country this turn yourselves north-ward.
4 Waamuru watu, kusema, “Mtapita kupitia mpaka wa ndugu zenu, wazao wa Esau, ambao wanaishi Seir; watawaogopa ninyi. Kwa hiyo muwe makini
And the people command saying you [are] about to pass in [the] territory of relatives your [the] descendants of Esau who dwell in Seir so they may be afraid from you and you will take heed exceedingly.
5 msipigane nao, kwa kuwa sitawapa nchi yoyote yao, hapana, hakuna hata vya kutosheleza unyao wa mguu kukanyanga, kwa kuwa nimekwisha mpa Esau Mlima wa Seir kama miliki.
May not you engage in strife with them for not I will give to you any of land their up to a treading place of [the] sole of a foot for a possession to Esau I have given [the] hill country of Seir.
6 Mtanunua chakula kutoka kwao kwa pesa, ili kwamba muweze kula, pia mtanunua maji kutoka kwao kwa pesa, ili kwamba muweze kunywa. Kwa kuwa
Food you will buy from with them for silver and you will eat and also water you will buy from with them for silver and you will drink.
7 Yahwe Mungu wenu amewabariki katika kazi za mikono yenu, amejua kutembea kwenu kupitia jangwa hili kuu. Kwa hii miaka arobaini Yahwe Mungu wenu amekuwa pamoja nanyi, na hamjapungukiwa chochote.
For Yahweh God your he has blessed you in all [the] work of hand your he has known walking you the wilderness great this this - forty year[s] Yahweh God your [has been] with you not you have lacked anything.
8 Basi tulipita karibu na ndugu zetu, wa wazao wa Esau, ambao wanaishi Seir, mbali na barabara la Arabah, kutoka Elathi, na kutoka Ezioni Geber. Na tuligeuka na kupita karibu na jangwa la Moabu.
And we passed away from with relatives our [the] descendants of Esau who were dwelling in Seir from [the] way of the desert plain from Elath and from Ezion Geber. And we turned and we passed along [the] way of [the] wilderness of Moab.
9 Yahweh aliniambia mimi,'Usiisumbue Moabu, na usipigane nao katika vita. Kwa kuwa sitakupa nchi yake kwa miliki yako, kwa sababu nimewapa Ar wazao wa Lot, kuwa miliki yao'.
And he said Yahweh to me to you may provoke Moab and may not you engage in strife with them battle for not I will give to you any of land his a possession for to [the] descendants of Lot I have given Ar a possession.
10 (Hapo awali waliishi Waemi, watu kama wakuu, wengi, na warefu kama Waanaki;
The Emites before they dwelt in it a people great and numerous and lofty like the Anakites.
11 hawa pia wanafikiriwa kuwa Rephaimu, kama Waanaki, lakini Wamoabi huwaita Waemi.
Rephaites they were regarded also they like the Anakites and the Moabites they called them Emites.
12 Wahori pia waliishi hapo awali Seiri, lakini wazao wa Esau waliwafuata. Waliwaharibu kutoka mbele yao na kuishi katika eneo lao, kama Israeli ilivyofanya kwa nchi ya umiliki wake ambayo Yahwe aliwapa.)
And in Seir they dwelt the Horites before and [the] descendants of Esau they dispossessed them and they destroyed them from before them and they dwelt in place of them just as it did Israel to [the] land of possession its which he gave Yahweh to them.
13 “Sasa inuka na uende kwenye kijito cha Zeredi”. Kwa hiyo tulienda kwenye kijito cha Zeredi.
Now arise and pass over yourselves [the] wadi of Zered and we passed over [the] wadi of Zered.
14 Sasa tangu siku ambapo tulikuja kutoka Kadesh Barnea mpaka tukavuka kijito cha Zeredi, ilikuwa miaka thelathini na nane. Ilikuwa kwa wakati huo kizazi chote cha watu waliofaa kupigana walikuwa wamekwisha ondoka kwa watu, kama Yahwe alivyokuwa ameapa kwao.
And the days which we walked - from Kadesh Barnea until that we passed over [the] wadi of Zered [were] thirty and eight year[s] until was finished all the generation [the] men of war from [the] midst of the camp just as he had sworn Yahweh to them.
15 Zaidi ya yote, mkono wa Yahwe ulikuwa kinyume na kizazi hicho ili kuweza kuwaangamiza kutoka kwa watu mpaka walipoondoka.
And also [the] hand of Yahweh it was on them to disturb them from [the] midst of the camp until were finished they.
16 Basi ilitokea, wakati watu wote waliofaa kwa kupigana walikuwa wamekufa, na kutoweka miongoni mwa watu,
And it was just when they had finished all [the] men of war to die from [the] midst of the people.
17 kwamba Yahwe alizungumza nami, kusema,
And he spoke Yahweh to me saying.
18 Leo mtavuka Ar, mpaka wa Moabu.
You [are] about to pass over this day [the] border of Moab Ar.
19 Wakati mtakapofika karibu na mkabala wa watu wa Ammoni, msiwasumbue au kupigana nao, kwa kuwa sitawapa nchi yoyote ya watu wa Ammoni kama miliki, kwa sababu nimekwisha wapa wazao wa Lutu kama miliki”.
And you will draw near in front of [the] people of Ammon may not you provoke them and may not you engage in strife with them for not I will give any of [the] land of [the] people of Ammon to you a possession for to [the] descendants of Lot I have given it a possession.
20 (Hiyo tena ilifikiriwa kuwa nchi ya Rephaimu. Warephaimu waliishi hapo awali-lakini Wammonites wanawaita Zamzummim,
[the] land of [the] Rephaites It was regarded also it [the] Rephaites they dwelt in it before and the Ammonites they called them Zamzummites.
21 watu kama wakuu, wengi, na warefu kama Anakim. Lakini Yahwe aliwaharibu mbele ya Wammonites na waliwafuata na kuishi katika maeneo yao.
A people great and numerous and lofty like the Anakites and he destroyed them Yahweh from before them and they dispossessed them and they dwelt in place of them.
22 Yahwe huyu pia alifanya kwa watu wa Esau ambao wanaishi Seiri, wakati alipowangamiza Wahori kutoka mbele yao, na wazao wa Esau waliwafuata na waliishi katika maeneno yao mpaka leo.
Just as he had done for [the] descendants of Esau who were dwelling in Seir whom he destroyed the Horite[s] from before them and they dispossessed them and they have dwelt in place of them until the day this.
23 Na Waavi, walioishi katika vijiji vya mbali ya Gaza, Wakaftori, ambao wanatokana na Kaftori, waliwangamiza na kuishi katika maeneo yao.)
And the Avvites who were dwelling in villages to Gaza [the] Caphtorites who came forth from Caphtor they destroyed them and they dwelt in place of them.
24 Sasa inuka, nenda njia yako na uvuke bonde la Arnoni, tazama, nimekupa mkononi mwako Sihoni ya Amorite, mfalme wa Heshboni, na nchi yake. Anza kuimiliki na pigana naye katika vita.
Arise set out and pass over [the] wadi of Arnon see I give in hand your Sihon [the] king of Heshbon the Amorite and land his begin take possession of [it] and engage in strife with him battle.
25 Leo nitaanza kuweka woga na hofu yenu kwa watu ambao wako chini ya anga lote, watasikia habari kuhusu ninyi na watatemeka na kuwa na shida kwa sababu yenu'.
The day this I will begin to put dread your and fear your on [the] face of the peoples under all the heavens who they will hear! report your and they will tremble and they will be in anguish because of you.
26 Nilituma wajumbe toka jangwa la Kedemothi kuelekea Sihoni, mfalme wa Heshbon, pamoja na maneno ya amani, kusema,
And I sent messengers from [the] wilderness of Kedemoth to Sihon [the] king of Heshbon words of peace saying.
27 Hebu nipite katika nchi yako; nitapita kwenye barabara kuu, sitageuka mkono wa kulia wala kushoto.
Let me pass in land your on the road on the road I will go not I will turn aside right [hand] and left [hand].
28 Mtaniuzia mimi chakula kwa pesa, ili kwamba niweze kula, nipe maji kwa pesa, ili kwamba niweze kunywa, peke niruhusu kupitia kwa miguu yangu,
Food for silver you will sell me and I will eat and water for silver you will give to me and I will drink only let me pass through on feet my.
29 kama wazao wa Esau wanaoishi Seiri, na Moabu wanaoishi Ari, walifanya kwangu, mpaka nivuke Yordani ndani ya nchi ambayo Yahwe Mungu wetu anatupa sisi'.
Just as they did for me [the] descendants of Esau who dwell in Seir and the Moabites who dwell in Ar until that I will pass over the Jordan into the land which Yahweh God our [is] about to give to us.
30 Lakini Sihon, mfalme wa Heshbon, asingeturuhusu kupitia kwake; kwa kuwa Yahwe Mungu wenu ameifanya ngumu akili yake na kufanya moyo wake kuwa ukaidi, ili kwamba aweze kumshinda kwa nguvu zake, ambayo amekwisha kufanya leo.
And not he was willing Sihon [the] king of Heshbon to let pass us in him for he had made stubborn Yahweh God your spirit his and he had made obstinate heart his so as to give him in hand your as the day this.
31 Yahwe alisema kwangu, “tazama, Nimeanza kumuokoa Sihoni na nchi yake mbele yako; kuanza kuimiliki, ili kusudi muweze kumiliki nchi yake.
And he said Yahweh to me see I have begun to deliver up before you Sihon and land his begin take possession to take possession of land his.
32 Kisha Sihon alikuja dhidi yetu, yeye na watu wote wake, kupigana huko Jahazi.
And he came forth Sihon to meet us he and all people his for battle Jahaz towards.
33 Yahwe Mungu wetu alimtoa kwetu na tulimshinda, tulimpiga mpaka kufa, watoto wake, na watu wake wote.
And he delivered up him Yahweh God our before us and we struck down him and (sons his *Q(K)*) and all people his.
34 Tulichukua miji yake yote kwa wakati huo na kuharibu kabisa kila mji- wanaume na wanawake na watoto wadogo; hatukuacha aliyenusurika.
And we captured all cities his at the time that and we totally destroyed every city of men and the women and the little one[s] not we spared a survivor.
35 Ng'ombe peke tulichukua kama mateka kwa ajili yetu, sambamba na mateka ya miji tuliochukua.
Only the livestock we plundered for ourselves and [the] booty of the cities which we had captured.
36 Kutoka Aroer, ambayo iko kwenye ukingo wa bonde la Arnon, na kutoka kwenye mji ambao uko bondeni, yote kwa njia ya kuelekea Galeadi, hapakuwa na mji uliokuwa mrefu kwetu. Yahwe Mungu wetu alitupa ushindi dhidi ya maadui zetu mbele yetu.
From Aroer which [is] on [the] edge of [the] wadi of Arnon and the city which [is] in the wadi and to Gilead not it was a town which it was [too] high for us every one he delivered up Yahweh God our before us.
37 Ilikuwa nchi ya wazao wa Ammoni peke yake ambayo hamkuingia, sambamba na sehemu zote za mto Jabboki, na miji ya nchi ya milima- popote pale Yahwe Mungu wetu ametukataza sisi kwenda.
Only to [the] land of [the] people of Ammon not you drew near all [the] side of [the] wadi of Jabbok and [the] cities of the hill country and all that he had commanded Yahweh God our.
