Deuteronomy 2
1 Nígbà náà ni a yípadà, tí a sì mú ọ̀nà wa pọ̀n lọ sí aginjù, a gba ọ̀nà Òkun Pupa, bí Olúwa ti darí mi. Ìgbà pípẹ́ ni a fi ń rìn kiri yíká agbègbè àwọn ìlú olókè Seiri.
“And setting out from there, we arrived at the wilderness which leads to the Red Sea, just as the Lord had spoken to me. And we encompassed Mount Seir for a long time.
2 Nígbà náà ni Olúwa sọ fún mi pé,
And the Lord said to me:
3 “Ẹ ti rìn yí agbègbè ilẹ̀ olókè yìí pẹ́ tó, nísinsin yìí, ẹ yípadà sí ìhà àríwá.
‘You have encompassed this mountain for long enough. Go forth, toward the north.
4 Fún àwọn ènìyàn náà ní àwọn òfin wọ̀nyí: ‘Ẹ ti fẹ́ la ilẹ̀ àwọn arákùnrin yín kọjá, àwọn ọmọ Esau; àwọn ará Edomu tí ń gbé ní Seiri. Ẹ̀rù yín yóò bà wọ́n, ṣùgbọ́n ẹ ṣọ́ra gidigidi.
And instruct the people, saying: You shall cross through the borders of your brothers, the sons of Esau, who live at Seir, and they will fear you.
5 Ẹ má ṣe wá wọn níjà torí pé èmi kò ní fún un yín ní èyíkéyìí nínú ilẹ̀ wọn. Bí ó ti wù kí ó kéré mọ èmi kò ní fún un yín. Mo ti fi ilẹ̀ òkè Seiri fún Esau gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìní rẹ̀.
Therefore, take care diligently, lest you be moved against them. For I will not give to you from their land even as much as the step that one foot can tread upon, because I have given Mount Seir to Esau as a possession.
6 Ẹ san owó oúnjẹ tí ẹ bá jẹ fún wọn àti omi tí ẹ bá mu.’”
You shall buy food from them for money, and you shall eat. You shall draw water for money, and you shall drink.
7 Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín ti bùkún un yín nínú gbogbo iṣẹ́ ọwọ́ yín. Ó ti mójútó ìrìnàjò yín nínú aginjù ńlá yìí. Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín wà pẹ̀lú u yín ní ogójì ọdún wọ̀nyí, dé bi pé ẹ̀yin kò ṣaláìní ohunkóhun.
The Lord your God has blessed you in every work of your hands. The Lord your God, dwelling with you, knows your journey, how you crossed through this great wilderness over forty years, and how you have been lacking in nothing.’
8 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni a kọjá ọ̀dọ̀ àwọn arákùnrin wa, àwọn ọmọ Esau tí ń gbé ní Seiri. A yà kúrò ní ọ̀nà Arabah èyí tí ó wá láti Elati àti Esioni-Geberi, a sì rìn gba ọ̀nà aginjù Moabu.
And when we had passed through our brothers, the sons of Esau, who were living at Seir by the way of the plain from Elath and from Eziongeber, we arrived at the way which leads to the desert of Moab.
9 Olúwa sì sọ fún mi pé, “Ẹ má ṣe dẹ́rùba àwọn ará Moabu bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kí ẹ má ṣe bá wọn jagun torí pé n kò ní fi èyíkéyìí nínú ilẹ̀ wọn fún un yín. Mo ti fi Ari fún àwọn ọmọ Lọti bí i ìní.”
And the Lord said to me: ‘You should not fight against the Moabites, nor should you go to battle against them. For I will not give to you anything from their land, because I have given Ar to the sons of Lot as a possession.’
10 (Àwọn Emimu ti gbé ibẹ̀ rí, àwọn ènìyàn tó síngbọnlẹ̀ tó sì pọ̀, wọ́n ga bí àwọn Anaki.
The Emim were the first of its inhabitants, a people great and strong, and of such great height, like the race of the Anakim.
11 Gẹ́gẹ́ bí Anaki àwọn ènìyàn náà pè wọ́n ní ará Refaimu ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ará Moabu pè wọ́n ní Emimu.
They were considered to be like giants, and they were like the sons of the Anakim. And, indeed, the Moabites call them: the Emim.
12 Àwọn ará Hori gbé ní Seiri, kí àwọn ọmọ Esau tó lé wọn kúrò níwájú wọn. Wọ́n sì gba ilẹ̀ wọn, wọ́n tẹ̀dó sí ààyè wọn gẹ́gẹ́ bí àwọn ọmọ Israẹli tí ṣe ní ilẹ̀ tí Olúwa yóò fún wọn ní ìní wọn.)
The Horites also formerly lived at Seir. When these had been driven out and destroyed, the sons of Esau lived there, just as Israel did in the land of his possession, which the Lord gave to him.
13 Olúwa sì wí pé, “Ẹ dìde, kí ẹ sì la àfonífojì Seredi kọjá.” Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni a la àfonífojì náà kọjá.
Then, rising up so as to cross over the torrent Zered, we arrived at the place.
14 Ó gbà wá ní ọdún méjìdínlógójì kí ó tó di wí pé a la àfonífojì Seredi kọjá láti ìgbà tí a ti kúrò ní Kadeṣi-Barnea. Nígbà náà gbogbo ìran àwọn tí ó jẹ́ jagunjagun láàrín àwọn ènìyàn náà ti ṣègbé kúrò láàrín àwọn ènìyàn náà ní àsìkò yìí bí Olúwa ti búra fún wọn.
Then, from the time that we advanced from Kadesh-barnea until we crossed over the torrent Zered, there were thirty-eight years, until the entire generation of the men who were fit for war had been consumed out of the camp, just as the Lord had sworn.
15 Ọwọ́ Olúwa sì wà lòdì sí wọn nítòótọ́, láti run wọn kúrò nínú ibùdó, títí gbogbo wọn fi run tan.
For his hand was against them, so that they would pass away from the midst of the camp.
16 Lẹ́yìn tí ẹni tí ó gbẹ̀yìn pátápátá nínú àwọn jagunjagun àwọn ènìyàn wọ̀nyí ti kú,
Then, after all the fighting men had fallen,
17 Olúwa sọ fún mi pé,
the Lord spoke to me, saying:
18 “Lónìí ni ẹ̀yin yóò la agbègbè Moabu kọjá ní Ari.
‘Today, you shall cross the borders of Moab, at the city named Ar.
19 Bí ẹ bá dé ọ̀dọ̀ àwọn ará Ammoni, ẹ má ṣe halẹ̀ mọ́ wọn, ẹ kò sì gbọdọ̀ bá wọn jagun, torí pé èmi kì yóò fi àwọn ilẹ̀ tí ó jẹ́ ti àwọn ará Ammoni fún un yín ní ìní. Mo ti fi fún àwọn ọmọ Lọti ní ìní.”
And when you have arrived in the vicinity of the sons of Ammon, be careful that you do not fight against them, nor should you be moved to battle. For I will not give to you from the land of the sons of Ammon, because I have given it to the sons of Lot as a possession.’
20 (A ka ilẹ̀ yìí sí ilẹ̀ àwọn Refaimu, tí wọ́n ti gbé níbẹ̀ rí, ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ará Ammoni ń pè wọ́n ní ará Samsummimu.
It was reputed to be a land of giants. And giants lived there in times past, those whom the Ammonites call the Zamzummim.
21 Wọ́n jẹ́ àwọn ènìyàn tó lágbára, wọ́n sì pọ̀, wọ́n sì ga gogoro bí àwọn ará Anaki. Olúwa run wọn kúrò níwájú àwọn ará Ammoni, tí wọ́n lé wọn jáde tí wọ́n sì gba ilẹ̀ wọn.
They are a people, great and numerous, and of lofty stature, like the Anakim, whom the Lord wiped away before their face. And he caused them to live there in place of them,
22 Bákan náà ni Olúwa ṣe fún àwọn ọmọ Esau, tí wọ́n ń gbé ní Seiri, nígbà tí ó pa àwọn ará Hori run níwájú wọn. Wọ́n lé wọn jáde wọ́n sì ń gbé ní ilẹ̀ wọn títí di òní.
just as he had done for the sons of Esau, who live at Seir, wiping out the Horites and delivering their land to them, which they possess even to the present time.
23 Nípa ti àwọn ará Affimu, tí wọ́n ń gbé ní àwọn ìlú kéékèèké dé Gasa, àwọn ará Kaftorimu, tí wọ́n jáde láti Krete wá ni ó pa wọ́n run, wọ́n sì gba ilẹ̀ wọn.)
Likewise the Hevites, who were living in small villages as far as Gaza, were expelled by the Cappadocians, who went forth from Cappadocia, and they wiped them out and lived in their place.
24 “Ẹ gbáradì, kí ẹ sì kọjá odò Arnoni. Kíyèsi, Mo ti fi Sihoni ará Amori, ọba Heṣboni àti ilẹ̀ rẹ̀ lé ọ lọ́wọ́. Ẹ bá ilẹ̀ náà jagun kí ẹ sì gbà á.
‘Rise up and cross the torrent Arnon! Behold, I have delivered Sihon, the king of Heshbon, the Amorite, into your hand, and so, begin to possess his land and to engage in battle against him.
25 Èmi bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí ní fi ìbẹ̀rù àti ìfòyà yín sára gbogbo orílẹ̀-èdè lábẹ́ ọ̀run láti òní lọ. Wọn yóò gbọ́ ìròyìn in yín, wọn yóò sì wárìrì, wọn yóò sì wà nínú ìdààmú ọkàn torí i tiyín.”
Today I will begin to send the terror and dread of you among the peoples who are living under all of heaven, so that, when they hear your name, they may be afraid, and may tremble in the manner of a woman giving birth, and may be gripped by anguish.’
26 Mo rán àwọn ìránṣẹ́ láti aginjù Kedemoti lọ́ sọ́dọ̀ Sihoni ọba Heṣboni pẹ̀lú ọ̀rọ̀ àlàáfíà wí pé,
Therefore, I sent messengers from the wilderness of Kedemoth to Sihon, the king of Heshbon, with peaceful words, saying:
27 “Jẹ́ kí a la ilẹ̀ ẹ yín kọjá. Àwa yóò gba ti òpópónà nìkan. A kò ní yà sọ́tùn tàbí sósì.
‘We will cross through your land. We will advance by the public way. We will not turn aside, neither to the right, nor to the left.
28 Ẹ ta oúnjẹ tí a ó jẹ àti omi tí a ó mu fún wa ní iye owó wọn. Kìkì kí ẹ sá à jẹ́ kí a rìn kọjá:
Sell us food for a price, so that we may eat. Provide us with water for money, and so we will drink. We only ask that you allow us to pass through,
29 gẹ́gẹ́ bí àwọn ọmọ Esau tí ó ń gbé ní Seiri àti àwọn ará Moabu tí ó ń gbé ní Ari, ti gbà wá láààyè títí a fi la Jordani já dé ilẹ̀ tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run wa yóò fún wa.”
just as the sons of Esau have done, who live at Seir, and the Moabites, who abide in Ar, until we arrive at the Jordan, and we cross to the land which the Lord our God will give to us.’
30 Ṣùgbọ́n Sihoni ọba Heṣboni kò gbà fún wa láti kọjá. Torí pé Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín ti mú ọkàn rẹ̀ yigbì, àyà rẹ̀ sì kún fún agídí kí ó ba à le fi lé e yín lọ́wọ́, bí ó ti ṣe báyìí.
And Sihon, the king of Heshbon, was not willing to grant passage to us. For the Lord your God had hardened his spirit, and had fastened his heart, so that he would be delivered into your hands, just as you now see.
31 Olúwa sì bá mi sọ̀rọ̀ pé, “Kíyèsi i, mo ti bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí ní fi Sihoni àti ilẹ̀ rẹ̀ lé e yín lọ́wọ́. Báyìí, ẹ máa ṣẹ́gun rẹ̀, kí ẹ sì gba ilẹ̀ rẹ̀.”
And the Lord said to me: ‘Behold, I have begun to deliver Sihon and his land to you. Begin to possess it.’
32 Nígbà tí Sihoni àti gbogbo àwọn jagunjagun rẹ̀ jáde wá láti bá wa jagun ní Jahasi,
And Sihon went out to meet us with all his people, to battle at Jahaz.
33 Olúwa Ọlọ́run wa fi lé wa lọ́wọ́ bẹ́ẹ̀ ni a ṣẹ́gun rẹ̀ pẹ̀lú àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ àti gbogbo ológun rẹ̀.
And the Lord our God delivered him to us. And we struck him down, with his sons and all his people.
34 Nígbà náà, gbogbo ìlú wọn ni a kó tí a sì pa wọ́n run pátápátá tọkùnrin, tobìnrin àti gbogbo ọmọ wọn. A kò sì dá ẹnikẹ́ni sí.
And we seized all his cities at that time, putting to death their inhabitants: men as well as women and children. We left nothing of them,
35 Ṣùgbọ́n a kó gbogbo ohun ọ̀sìn àti ìkógun àwọn ìlú tí a ṣẹ́gun fún ara wa.
except the cattle, which went to the share of those who plundered them. And we seized the spoils of the cities,
36 Láti Aroeri, létí odò Arnoni àti láti àwọn ìlú tí ó wà lẹ́bàá odò náà títí ó fi dé Gileadi, kò sí ìlú tí ó lágbára jù fún wa, Olúwa Ọlọ́run wa fi gbogbo wọn fún wa.
from Aroer, which is above the bank of the torrent Arnon, a town which is situated in a valley, all the way to Gilead. There was not a village or city which escaped from our hands. The Lord our God delivered everything to us,
37 Ní ìbámu pẹ̀lú òfin Olúwa Ọlọ́run wa, ẹ kò súnmọ́ ọ̀kan nínú ilẹ̀ àwọn ará Ammoni, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ẹ kò dé ilẹ̀ tí ó lọ sí Jabbok, tàbí ilẹ̀ tí ó yí àwọn ìlú òkè e nì ká.
except the land of the sons of Ammon, which we did not approach, and all that is adjacent to the torrent Jabbok, and the cities in the mountains, and all the places which the Lord our God prohibited to us.”
