1 Idi nadamag ti ari iti Arad a Cananeo nga agnanaed idiay Negev, nga agdaldaliasat dagiti Israelita iti kalsada nga agturong idiay Atarim, rinautna dagiti Israelita ken innalana a balud ti sumagmamano kadakuada.
And when king Arad the Canaanite, who was living toward the south, had heard this, namely, that Israel had arrived by the way of spies, he fought against them. And proving to be the victor, he led away prey from them.
2 Nagsapata dagiti Israelita kenni Yahweh ket kinunada, “No itedmo kadakami ti balligi maibusor kadagitoy a tattao, ket dadaelenmi a naan-anay dagiti siudadda.”
But Israel, obliging himself by a vow to the Lord, said: “If you deliver this people into my hand, I will wipe away their cities.”
3 Dinengngeg ni Yahweh ti timek dagiti Israelita ket intedna kadakuada ti balligi kadagiti Cananeo. Dinadaelda ida a naan-anay ken dagiti siudadda. Naawagan dayta a lugar a Horma.
And the Lord heard the prayers of Israel, and he delivered the Canaanite, whom they put to death, overthrowing his cities. And they called the name of that place Hormah, that is, Anathema.
4 Nagdaliasatda manipud iti Bantay Hor nga agturong iti baybay dagiti Runo tapno likmutenda ti daga ti Edom. Kasta unay ti pannakadismaya dagiti tattao bayat nga addada iti dalan.
Then they set out from mount Hor, by the way that leads to the Red Sea, to circle around the land of Edom. And the people began to tire of their journey and hardships.
5 Nagsao dagiti tattao maibusor iti Dios ken ni Moises: “Apay nga impanawnakami manipud iti Egipto tapno matay iti let-ang? Awan tinapay, awan danum ken saanmi a kayat daytoy makauma a makan.”
And speaking against God and Moses, they said: “Why did you lead us away from Egypt, so as to die in the wilderness? Bread is lacking; there are no waters. Our soul is now nauseous over this very light food.”
6 Ket nangibaon ni Yahweh kadagiti nagita nga uleg kadagiti tattao. Kinagat dagitoy nga uleg dagiti tattao; adu a tattao ti natay.
For this reason, the Lord sent fiery serpents among the people, which wounded or killed many of them.
7 Immasideg dagiti tattao kenni Moises ket kinunada, “Nagbasolkami gapu ta nagsaokami iti maibusor kenka ken ni Yahweh. Agkararagka kenni Yahweh tapno ikkatenna dagitoy nga uleg kadakami.” Ngarud, inkararagan ni Moises dagiti tattao.
And so they went to Moses, and they said: “We have sinned, because we have spoken against the Lord and against you. Pray, so that he may take away these serpents from us.” And Moses prayed for the people.
8 Kinuna ni Yahweh kenni Moises, “Mangaramidka iti sinan-uleg ken ikapetmo daytoy iti poste. Makalasatto amin a nakagat no kitaenna daytoy.”
And the Lord said to him: “Make a bronze serpent, and place it as a sign. Whoever, having been struck, gazes upon it, shall live.”
9 Isu a nagaramid ni Moises iti sinan-uleg a bronse sana inkapet iti poste. Makalasat ti siasinoman a kagaten ti uleg no kumita isuna iti sinan-uleg a bronse.
Therefore, Moses made a bronze serpent, and he placed it as a sign. When those who had been struck gazed upon it, they were healed.
10 Kalpasanna, nagtuloy a nagdaliasat dagiti Israelita ket nagkampoda idiay Obot.
And the sons of Israel, setting out, made camp at Oboth.
11 Nagdaliasatda manipud Obot ket nagkampoda iti rebba ti Abarim idiay let-ang nga akin-daya a paset ti Moab.
Having departed from there, they pitched their tents at Iye-abarim, in the wilderness, which looks out toward Moab, opposite the eastern region.
12 Manipud sadiay intultuloyda ti nagdaliasat ket nagkampoda iti tanap ti Zered.
And moving from there, they arrived at the Torrent of Zared.
13 Manipud sadiay, intultuloyda ti nagdaliasat ket nagkampoda iti ballasiw ti Karayan Arnon, nga adda iti let-ang a dumanon iti beddeng dagiti Amorreo. Ti Karayan Arnon ti beddeng iti Moab, nagbaetan daytoy ti Moab ken dagiti Amorreo.
Having left that place behind, they then made camp opposite Arnon, which is in the desert, and which juts out at the borders of the Amorite. For certainly Arnon is at the limit of Moab, dividing the Moabites and the Amorites.
14 Isu't gapuna a nailanad iti nalukot a pagbasaan kadagiti Gubat ni Yahweh, “Waheb idiay Sufa, ken kadagiti tantanap ti Arnon,
About this place, it is said in the book of the wars of the Lord: “As he did at the Red Sea, so will he do at the Torrents of Arnon.”
15 dagiti pasalog a tantanap nga agturong iti ili ti Ar ken sumalog iti beddeng ti Moab.”
The stones of the torrents were bent, so that they might rest in Ar and lie back within the borders of the Moabites.
16 Manipud sadiay, nagdaliasatda a nagturong iti Beer, ti ayan iti bubon a nagkunaan idi ni Yahweh kenni Moises. “Ummongem dagiti tattao tapno ikkak ida iti danum.”
Beyond that place appeared a well, about which the Lord said to Moses: “Gather the people together, and I will give them water.”
17 Ket inkanta dagiti Israelita daytoy a kanta: “Agubbogka, bubon. Ikantami ti maipapan iti daytoy.
Then Israel sang this verse: “Let the well rise up.” They sang:
18 Ti bubon a kinali dagiti mangidadaulo kadakami, ti bubon a kinali dagiti natakneng a tattao babaen iti setro ken dagiti bastonda.” Ket manipud iti let-ang, nagdaliasatda a nagturong iti Matana.
“The well, the leaders dug it, and the commanders of the multitude prepared it, at the direction of the lawgiver, and with their staffs.”
19 Manipud iti Matana, nagdaliasatda a nagturong iti Nahaliel, ken manipud Nahaliel, nagturongda idiay Bamot,
They went from the wilderness to Mattanah, from Mattanah to Nahaliel, from Nahaliel to Bamoth,
20 ken manipud idiay Bamot nagturongda iti maysa a tanap idiay daga ti Moab. Sadiay, ti tuktok ti Bantay Pisga a matantannawagan ti let-ang.
from Bamoth, a valley in the region of Moab, to the top of Pisgah, which looks out opposite the desert.
21 Ket nangibaon dagiti Israelita kadagiti mensaheroda a mapan kenni Sihon nga ari dagiti Amorreo a kunada,
Then Israel sent messengers to Sihon, the king of the Amorites, saying:
22 “Palubosandakami a lumabas iti dagam. Saankami a sumrek iti aniaman a talon wenno kaubasan. Saankami nga uminom iti danum kadagiti bubonmo. Agdaliasatkami iti kangrunaan a kalsada ti ari agingga a malabsanmi ti beddengmo.”
“I beg you to permit me to cross through your land. We will not turn aside into the fields or the vineyards. We will not drink waters from the wells. We will travel by the royal way, until we have passed your borders.”
23 Ngem saan nga impalubos ni Ari Sihon a lumabas iti beddengda dagiti Israelita. Ngem ketdi, inummong ni Sihon dagiti amin a soldadona ket rinautda dagiti Israelita idiay let-ang. Napan isuna idiay Jaaz a nangrautanna kadagiti Israelita.
And he was not willing to allow Israel to cross through his borders. But instead, gathering an army, he went out to meet them in the desert, and he arrived at Jahaz and fought against them.
24 Rinaut dagiti Israelita dagiti soldado ni Sihon babaen iti tirad ti kampilanda ket tinagikuada ti dagdagada manipud Arnon agingga iti karayan Jabbok, agingga iti daga dagiti Amonita. Ita, napatibker ti beddeng dagiti Amonita.
And he was struck down by them with the edge of the sword, and they possessed his land from Arnon, even to Jabbok and the sons of Ammon. For the borders of the Ammonites were held by a strong fortress.
25 Sinakup dagiti Israelita amin a siudad dagiti Amorreo ket nagnaedda kadagitoy, kasta met idiay Hesbon ken kadagiti amin a barbario.
Therefore, Israel took all his cities and lived in the cities of the Amorite, namely, in Heshbon and its villages.
26 Ti Hesbon ket siudad ni Sihon nga ari dagiti Amorreo, ti nakiranget iti sigud nga ari iti Moab. Sinakup amin ni Sihon ti daga ti Moab manipud iti masakupanna agingga iti Karayan Arnon.
Heshbon was the city of Sihon, the king of the Amorites, who fought against the king of Moab. And he took all the land, which had been under his sovereignty, as far as Arnon.
27 Dayta ti gapuna a dagiti agsarsarita kadagiti probervio ket kunada, “Umaykayo iti Hesbon. Maibangon ken maipatakder koma manen ti siudad ni Sihon.
About this, it is said in the proverb: “Enter into Heshbon. Let the city of Sihon be established and built.
28 Adda apuy a rimmuar manipud iti Hesbon, maysa nga apuy manipud iti siudad ni Sihon a nangkisap ti Ar iti Moab, ken dagiti makinkukua kadagiti katurturodan iti Arnon.
A fire has gone forth from Heshbon, a flame from the town of Sihon, and it has devoured Ar of the Moabites, and the inhabitants of the heights of Arnon.
29 Asikayo pay, Moab! Nadadaelkayo, dakayo a tattao iti Kemos. Pinagbalinna a libas a balud dagiti lallaki nga annakna ken dagiti babbai nga annakna ket nagbalinda a balud ni Sihon nga ari dagiti Amorreo.
Woe to you, Moab! You are perishing, O people of Chemosh. He gave flight to his sons, and he gave the daughters into captivity, to the king of the Amorites, Sihon.
30 Ngem naparmekmi ni Sihon. Nadadaelen ti Hesbon agingga idiay Dibon. Naparmekmi amin ida agingga idiay Nofa, a dumanon idiay Medeba.”
Their yoke has been scattered from Heshbon even to Dibon. They have passed through, wearily, into Nophah, and as far as Medeba.”
31 Isu a rinugian dagiti Israelita ti agnaed iti daga dagiti Amorreo.
And so Israel lived in the land of the Amorite.
32 Ket nangibaon ni Moises kadagiti lallaki nga agpaliiw idiay Jazer. Sinakupda dagiti il-ilina daytoy ken pinapanawda dagiti Amorreo nga adda sadiay.
And Moses sent some to explore Jazer. These captured its villages and possessed its inhabitants.
33 Kalpasanna, naglikko dagiti Israelita ket simmang-atda iti dalan nga agturong idiay Basan. Rimmuar ni Og nga ari ti Basan agraman ti armadana tapno darupenda dagiti Israelita, tapno makirangetda kadakuada idiay Edrei.
And they turned themselves and ascended, along the way of Bashan. And Og, the king of Bashan, met them with all his people, to fight at Edrei.
34 Ket kinuna ni Yahweh kenni Moises, “Saanka nga agbuteng kenkuana, gapu ta intedko kenka ti balligi a mangparmek kenkuana, kadagiti amin nga armadana, ken iti dagana. Aramidem kenkuana ti inaramidmo kenni Sihon nga ari dagiti Amorreo, a nagnaed idiay Hesbon.”
And the Lord said to Moses: “Do not be afraid of him. For I have delivered him, and all his people, as well as his land, into your hand. And you shall do to him just as you did to Sihon, the king of the Amorites, the inhabitant of Heshbon.”
35 Pinatayda ngarud ni Og, dagiti lallaki nga annakna, ken amin nga armadana, agingga nga awan iti nabati a sibibiag kadagiti tattaona. Ket tinagikuada ti dagana.
Therefore, they struck him down also, with his sons, and all his people, even to utter destruction, and they possessed his land.
