< 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 departing from thence we came into the wilderness that leadeth to the Red Sea, as the Lord had spoken to me: and we compassed mount Seir 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 compassed this mountain long enough: go 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 command thou the people, saying: You shall pass by the borders of your brethren the children of Esau, who dwell in Seir, and they will be afraid of 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.
Take ye then good heed that you stir not against them. For I will not give you of their land so much as the step of one foot can tread upon, because I have given mount Seir to Esau, for a possession.
6 Ẹ san owó oúnjẹ tí ẹ bá jẹ fún wọn àti omi tí ẹ bá mu.’”
You shall buy meats of them for money and shall eat: you shall draw waters for money, and 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 thy God hath blessed thee in every work of thy hands: the Lord thy God dwelling with thee, knoweth thy journey, how thou hast passed through this great wilderness, for forty years, and thou hast wanted 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 by our brethren the children of Esau, that dwelt in Seir, by the way of the plain from Elath and from Asiongaber, we came to the way that leadeth 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: Fight not against the Moabites, neither go to battle against them: for I will not give thee any of their land, because I have given Ar to the children of Lot in possession.
10 (Àwọn Emimu ti gbé ibẹ̀ rí, àwọn ènìyàn tó síngbọnlẹ̀ tó sì pọ̀, wọ́n ga bí àwọn Anaki.
The Emims first were the inhabitants thereof, a people great, and strong, and so tall, that like the race of the Enacims,
11 Gẹ́gẹ́ bí Anaki àwọn ènìyàn náà pè wọ́n ní ará Refaimu ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ará Moabu pè wọ́n ní Emimu.
They were esteemed as giants, and were like the sons of the Enacims. But the Moabites call them Emims.
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 Horrhites also formerly dwelt in Seir: who being driven out and destroyed, the children of Esau dwelt there, as Israel did in the land of his possession, which the Lord gave 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 to pass the torrent Zared, we came to it.
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.
And the time that we journeyed from Cadesbarne till we passed over the torrent Zared, was thirty-eight years: until all the generation of the men that were fit for war was consumed out of the camp, 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, that they should perish from the midst of the camp.
16 Lẹ́yìn tí ẹni tí ó gbẹ̀yìn pátápátá nínú àwọn jagunjagun àwọn ènìyàn wọ̀nyí ti kú,
And after all the fighting men were dead,
The Lord spoke to me, saying:
18 “Lónìí ni ẹ̀yin yóò la agbègbè Moabu kọjá ní Ari.
Thou shalt pass this day the borders of Moab, 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 thou comest nigh the frontiers of the children of Ammon, take heed thou fight not against them, nor once move to battle: for I will not give thee of the land of the children of Ammon, because I have given it to the children of Lot for 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 accounted a land of giants: and giants formerly dwelt in it, whom the Ammonites call Zomzommims,
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.
A people great and many, and of tall stature, like the Enacims whom the Lord destroyed before their face: and he made them to dwell in their stead,
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.
As he had done in favour of the children of Esau, that dwell in Seir, destroying the Horrhites, and delivering their land to them, which they possess to this day.
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.)
The Hevites also, that dwelt in Haserim as far as Gaza, were expelled by the Cappadocians: who came out of Cappadocia, and destroyed them, and dwelt in their stead.
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.
Arise ye, and pass the torrent Arnon: Behold I have delivered into thy hand Sehon king of Hesebon the Amorrhite, and begin thou to possess his land and make war 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.”
This day will I begin to send the dread and fear of thee upon the nations that dwell under the whole heaven: that when they hear thy name they may fear and tremble, and be in pain like women in travail.
26 Mo rán àwọn ìránṣẹ́ láti aginjù Kedemoti lọ́ sọ́dọ̀ Sihoni ọba Heṣboni pẹ̀lú ọ̀rọ̀ àlàáfíà wí pé,
So I sent messengers from the wilderness of Cademoth to Sehon the king of Hesebon with peaceable 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 pass through thy land, we will go along by the highway: we will not turn aside neither to the right hand 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 meat for money, that we may eat: give us water for money and so we will drink. We only ask that thou wilt let us 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.”
As the children of Esau have done, that dwell in Seir, and the Moabites, that abide in Ar: until we come to the Jordan, and pass to the land which the Lord our God will give 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 Sehon the king of Hesebon would not let us pass: because the Lord thy God had hardened his spirit, and fixed his heart, that he might be delivered into thy hands, as now thou seest.
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 unto thee Sehon and his land, begin to possess it.
32 Nígbà tí Sihoni àti gbogbo àwọn jagunjagun rẹ̀ jáde wá láti bá wa jagun ní Jahasi,
And Sehon came out to meet us with all his people to fight at Jasa.
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 slew him 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 took all his cities at that time, killing the inhabitants of them, men and 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 came to the share of them that took them: and the spoils of the cities, which we took:
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 upon the bank of the torrent Amen, a town that is situate in a valley, as far as Galaad. There was not a village or city, that escaped our hands: the Lord our God delivered all unto 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 children of Ammon, to which we approached not: and all that border upon the torrent Jeboc, and the cities in the mountains, and all the places which the Lord our God forbade us.
