民數記 21
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)
擊敗迦南人
21 住在南地的迦南人亞拉得王聽說以色列人取道亞他林而來，就攻打他們，俘虜了一些人。 2 以色列人向耶和華許願說：「要是你將這些人交在我們手中，我們必徹底摧毀[a]他們的城邑。」 3 耶和華答應了他們的祈求，把迦南人交在他們手中，使他們徹底毀滅了迦南人及其城邑。從此，那地方叫何珥瑪[b]。
銅蛇
4 以色列人為了繞過以東，便從何珥山出發，沿通往紅海的路行進。途中，民眾心裡煩躁， 5 埋怨上帝和摩西說：「你們為什麼把我們從埃及帶出來，叫我們死在曠野呢？這裡無糧無水，我們厭惡這難吃的東西！」
6 於是，耶和華派毒蛇進入以色列人中，咬死了許多人。 7 他們來找摩西，說：「我們埋怨耶和華和你，犯了罪，求你向耶和華禱告，好叫這些蛇離開我們。」摩西就為他們禱告。 8 耶和華對摩西說：「你去造一條蛇掛在杆子上，凡被咬的一望這蛇，就可活命。」 9 摩西就造了一條銅蛇，掛在杆子上。被蛇咬的人一望銅蛇，就保住了性命。
前往摩押
10 以色列人繼續前行，在阿伯安營； 11 又從阿伯動身，走到摩押東邊的曠野，在以耶·亞巴琳安營； 12 又從那裡前行，走到撒烈谷安營； 13 又從那裡出發，走到亞嫩河北岸的曠野安營。那裡毗鄰亞摩利人的邊境，亞嫩河是摩押和亞摩利之間的疆界。 14 因此，耶和華的戰記上說：「蘇法的哇哈伯，亞嫩河谷， 15 以及河谷的斜坡——靠近摩押邊界並延伸到亞珥城。」
16 以色列人又往前走，來到比珥[c]。耶和華曾在那裡對摩西說：「把民眾招聚起來，我要給他們水喝。」 17 當時，以色列人唱了這首歌：
「井啊，湧出水來！
你們要歌頌這口井，
18 它是首領挖的，
是民中的貴族掘的，
用令牌和權杖挖掘的。」
他們從曠野前往瑪他拿， 19 從瑪他拿前往拿哈列，從拿哈列前往巴末， 20 從巴末前往摩押的谷地，從那裡的毗斯迦山頂可以俯視曠野。
擊敗亞摩利王和巴珊王
21 以色列人派使者去見亞摩利王西宏，說： 22 「請允許我們從貴國經過，我們只走大路，不會踏入田地和葡萄園，也不會喝井裡的水，直到走出貴國的土地。」 23 但西宏拒絕了他們的請求，並招聚軍隊到曠野攻擊他們。兩軍在雅雜交鋒。 24 以色列人殺了西宏，佔領了他的土地——從亞嫩河到雅博河，遠至防守嚴密的亞捫人邊界。 25 以色列人攻佔了亞摩利人的所有城邑，包括希實本及其周圍的村莊，住在其中。 26 希實本是亞摩利王西宏的都城。西宏曾與摩押的先王交戰，佔領了他所有的領土，遠至亞嫩河。 27 因此有人作詩說：
「來希實本吧！
重建西宏的城。
28 希實本烈焰熊熊，
西宏的城火光沖天，
燒毀摩押的亞珥，
吞噬亞嫩河的高崗。
29 摩押啊，你大禍臨頭了！
拜基抹神明的人啊，
你們要滅亡了！
基抹任由自己的兒子逃亡、
女兒被亞摩利王西宏擄走。
30 但我們擊潰了亞摩利人，
從希實本一直到底本都被摧毀，
從挪法到米底巴都淪為廢墟。」
31 於是，以色列人住在亞摩利境內。 32 摩西派人去雅謝打探，然後出兵攻佔了雅謝及其周圍的村莊，趕走那裡的亞摩利人。 33 以色列人回師前往巴珊，巴珊王噩率全軍出動，在以得來迎戰以色列人。 34 耶和華對摩西說：「不要怕他，因為我已把他及其眾民和土地交在你手中。你要像從前對付希實本的亞摩利王西宏一樣對付他。」 35 於是，以色列人殺了噩及其兒子和人民，一個不留，並奪取了他的國土。

击败迦南人
21 住在南地的迦南人亚拉得王听说以色列人取道亚他林而来，就攻打他们，俘虏了一些人。 2 以色列人向耶和华许愿说：“要是你将这些人交在我们手中，我们必彻底摧毁[a]他们的城邑。” 3 耶和华答应了他们的祈求，把迦南人交在他们手中，使他们彻底毁灭了迦南人及其城邑。从此，那地方叫何珥玛[b]。
铜蛇
4 以色列人为了绕过以东，便从何珥山出发，沿通往红海的路行进。途中，民众心里烦躁， 5 埋怨上帝和摩西说：“你们为什么把我们从埃及带出来，叫我们死在旷野呢？这里无粮无水，我们厌恶这难吃的东西！”
6 于是，耶和华派毒蛇进入以色列人中，咬死了许多人。 7 他们来找摩西，说：“我们埋怨耶和华和你，犯了罪，求你向耶和华祷告，好叫这些蛇离开我们。”摩西就为他们祷告。 8 耶和华对摩西说：“你去造一条蛇挂在杆子上，凡被咬的一望这蛇，就可活命。” 9 摩西就造了一条铜蛇，挂在杆子上。被蛇咬的人一望铜蛇，就保住了性命。
前往摩押
10 以色列人继续前行，在阿伯安营； 11 又从阿伯动身，走到摩押东边的旷野，在以耶·亚巴琳安营； 12 又从那里前行，走到撒烈谷安营； 13 又从那里出发，走到亚嫩河北岸的旷野安营。那里毗邻亚摩利人的边境，亚嫩河是摩押和亚摩利之间的疆界。 14 因此，耶和华的战记上说：“苏法的哇哈伯，亚嫩河谷， 15 以及河谷的斜坡——靠近摩押边界并延伸到亚珥城。”
16 以色列人又往前走，来到比珥[c]。耶和华曾在那里对摩西说：“把民众招聚起来，我要给他们水喝。” 17 当时，以色列人唱了这首歌：
“井啊，涌出水来！
你们要歌颂这口井，
18 它是首领挖的，
是民中的贵族掘的，
用令牌和权杖挖掘的。”
他们从旷野前往玛他拿， 19 从玛他拿前往拿哈列，从拿哈列前往巴末， 20 从巴末前往摩押的谷地，从那里的毗斯迦山顶可以俯视旷野。
击败亚摩利王和巴珊王
21 以色列人派使者去见亚摩利王西宏，说： 22 “请允许我们从贵国经过，我们只走大路，不会踏入田地和葡萄园，也不会喝井里的水，直到走出贵国的土地。” 23 但西宏拒绝了他们的请求，并招聚军队到旷野攻击他们。两军在雅杂交锋。 24 以色列人杀了西宏，占领了他的土地——从亚嫩河到雅博河，远至防守严密的亚扪人边界。 25 以色列人攻占了亚摩利人的所有城邑，包括希实本及其周围的村庄，住在其中。 26 希实本是亚摩利王西宏的都城。西宏曾与摩押的先王交战，占领了他所有的领土，远至亚嫩河。 27 因此有人作诗说：
“来希实本吧！
重建西宏的城。
28 希实本烈焰熊熊，
西宏的城火光冲天，
烧毁摩押的亚珥，
吞噬亚嫩河的高岗。
29 摩押啊，你大祸临头了！
拜基抹神明的人啊，
你们要灭亡了！
基抹任由自己的儿子逃亡、
女儿被亚摩利王西宏掳走。
30 但我们击溃了亚摩利人，
从希实本一直到底本都被摧毁，
从挪法到米底巴都沦为废墟。”
31 于是，以色列人住在亚摩利境内。 32 摩西派人去雅谢打探，然后出兵攻占了雅谢及其周围的村庄，赶走那里的亚摩利人。 33 以色列人回师前往巴珊，巴珊王噩率全军出动，在以得来迎战以色列人。 34 耶和华对摩西说：“不要怕他，因为我已把他及其众民和土地交在你手中。你要像从前对付希实本的亚摩利王西宏一样对付他。” 35 于是，以色列人杀了噩及其儿子和人民，一个不留，并夺取了他的国土。
Numbers 21
King James Version
21 And when king Arad the Canaanite, which dwelt in the south, heard tell that Israel came by the way of the spies; then he fought against Israel, and took some of them prisoners.
2 And Israel vowed a vow unto the Lord, and said, If thou wilt indeed deliver this people into my hand, then I will utterly destroy their cities.
3 And the Lord hearkened to the voice of Israel, and delivered up the Canaanites; and they utterly destroyed them and their cities: and he called the name of the place Hormah.
4 And they journeyed from mount Hor by the way of the Red sea, to compass the land of Edom: and the soul of the people was much discouraged because of the way.
5 And the people spake against God, and against Moses, Wherefore have ye brought us up out of Egypt to die in the wilderness? for there is no bread, neither is there any water; and our soul loatheth this light bread.
6 And the Lord sent fiery serpents among the people, and they bit the people; and much people of Israel died.
7 Therefore the people came to Moses, and said, We have sinned, for we have spoken against the Lord, and against thee; pray unto the Lord, that he take away the serpents from us. And Moses prayed for the people.
8 And the Lord said unto Moses, Make thee a fiery serpent, and set it upon a pole: and it shall come to pass, that every one that is bitten, when he looketh upon it, shall live.
9 And Moses made a serpent of brass, and put it upon a pole, and it came to pass, that if a serpent had bitten any man, when he beheld the serpent of brass, he lived.
10 And the children of Israel set forward, and pitched in Oboth.
11 And they journeyed from Oboth, and pitched at Ijeabarim, in the wilderness which is before Moab, toward the sunrising.
12 From thence they removed, and pitched in the valley of Zared.
13 From thence they removed, and pitched on the other side of Arnon, which is in the wilderness that cometh out of the coasts of the Amorites: for Arnon is the border of Moab, between Moab and the Amorites.
14 Wherefore it is said in the book of the wars of the Lord, What he did in the Red sea, and in the brooks of Arnon,
15 And at the stream of the brooks that goeth down to the dwelling of Ar, and lieth upon the border of Moab.
16 And from thence they went to Beer: that is the well whereof the Lord spake unto Moses, Gather the people together, and I will give them water.
17 Then Israel sang this song, Spring up, O well; sing ye unto it:
18 The princes digged the well, the nobles of the people digged it, by the direction of the lawgiver, with their staves. And from the wilderness they went to Mattanah:
19 And from Mattanah to Nahaliel: and from Nahaliel to Bamoth:
20 And from Bamoth in the valley, that is in the country of Moab, to the top of Pisgah, which looketh toward Jeshimon.
21 And Israel sent messengers unto Sihon king of the Amorites, saying,
22 Let me pass through thy land: we will not turn into the fields, or into the vineyards; we will not drink of the waters of the well: but we will go along by the king's high way, until we be past thy borders.
23 And Sihon would not suffer Israel to pass through his border: but Sihon gathered all his people together, and went out against Israel into the wilderness: and he came to Jahaz, and fought against Israel.
24 And Israel smote him with the edge of the sword, and possessed his land from Arnon unto Jabbok, even unto the children of Ammon: for the border of the children of Ammon was strong.
25 And Israel took all these cities: and Israel dwelt in all the cities of the Amorites, in Heshbon, and in all the villages thereof.
26 For Heshbon was the city of Sihon the king of the Amorites, who had fought against the former king of Moab, and taken all his land out of his hand, even unto Arnon.
27 Wherefore they that speak in proverbs say, Come into Heshbon, let the city of Sihon be built and prepared:
28 For there is a fire gone out of Heshbon, a flame from the city of Sihon: it hath consumed ar of Moab, and the lords of the high places of Arnon.
29 Woe to thee, Moab! thou art undone, O people of Chemosh: he hath given his sons that escaped, and his daughters, into captivity unto Sihon king of the Amorites.
30 We have shot at them; Heshbon is perished even unto Dibon, and we have laid them waste even unto Nophah, which reacheth unto Medeba.
31 Thus Israel dwelt in the land of the Amorites.
32 And Moses sent to spy out Jaazer, and they took the villages thereof, and drove out the Amorites that were there.
33 And they turned and went up by the way of Bashan: and og the king of bashan went out against them, he, and all his people, to the battle at edrei.
34 And the Lord said unto Moses, Fear him not: for I have delivered him into thy hand, and all his people, and his land; and thou shalt do to him as thou didst unto Sihon king of the Amorites, which dwelt at Heshbon.
35 So they smote him, and his sons, and all his people, until there was none left him alive: and they possessed his land.
