曠野漂流

2 「之後，我們遵照耶和華的吩咐掉轉頭，沿紅海的路前往曠野，在西珥山區繞行了很久。 2 後來，耶和華對我說， 3 『你們在這山區繞行的日子夠了，現在轉向北方吧。 4 你告訴眾人，你們將經過西珥，那裡住著你們的親屬以掃的子孫。他們懼怕你們，所以要格外謹慎， 5 不要惹他們，因為我已把西珥山賜給以掃作產業，他們的土地，我一寸也不會賜給你們。 6 你們吃的、喝的，都要花錢向他們買。 7 你們的上帝耶和華使你們凡事蒙福，看顧著你們走過這遼闊的曠野，四十年來與你們同在，使你們一無所缺。』

8 「於是，我們繞過我們親屬以掃的子孫所住的西珥，沿亞拉巴的路，經過以拉他、以旬·迦別，向摩押曠野走去。 9 耶和華對我說，『不可騷擾摩押人，不可與他們爭戰，因為我不會把他們的土地賜給你，我已把亞珥賜給羅得的子孫為業。』

10 「從前以米人住在亞珥，他們人數眾多，像亞衲人一樣身材高大。 11 以米人同亞衲人一樣也被稱為利乏音人，但摩押人稱他們為以米人。 12 以前，何利人也住在西珥，但以掃的子孫消滅了他們，佔領了他們的土地，住在那裡，正如後來以色列人佔領了耶和華賜給他們的土地。 13 耶和華又說，『現在，你們要動身過撒烈溪。』於是，我們過了撒烈溪。 14 我們從離開加低斯·巴尼亞到穿過撒烈溪用了三十八年。期間，那一代戰士都死光了，正如耶和華的誓言。 15 其實是耶和華的手攻擊他們，直到把他們從營中全部消滅。

16 「所有的戰士都死後， 17 耶和華對我說， 18 『今天你要從亞珥繞過摩押邊境。 19 到亞捫人之地後，不可騷擾他們，不可與他們爭戰，因為我不會把他們的土地賜給你們，我已把那裡賜給羅得的子孫作產業。』 20 那裡以前也是利乏音人住的地方，亞捫人稱利乏音人為散送冥， 21 利乏音族人數眾多，像亞衲人一樣身材高大。耶和華消滅了他們，讓亞捫人佔領他們的土地，住在那裡。 22 耶和華也曾為以掃的子孫消滅住在西珥的何利人，讓他們佔據何利人的土地，住在那裡，直到今日。 23 同樣，來自克里特的迦斐托人消滅了迦薩附近的亞衛人，住在那裡。 24 耶和華說，『起來穿過亞嫩谷，我已將亞摩利人希實本王西宏和他的土地交在你手中，你要攻打他，佔領他的土地。 25 從今天起，我要使天下萬民在你面前驚恐萬狀，一聽到你的名字就嚇得發抖。』

擊敗希實本王

26 「於是，我從基底莫曠野派使者去見希實本王西宏，提出和平的建議，說， 27 『請允許我們從貴國經過，我們只走大路，不會偏離。 28 我們吃的喝的，都會按價向你買，只求讓我們借道經過， 29 就像西珥的以東人和亞珥的摩押人那樣對待我們。我們只想過約旦河，去我們的上帝耶和華所賜之地。』 30 希實本王西宏卻拒絕我們的請求，因為我們的上帝耶和華使他頑固不化，好讓我們擊敗他，正如今日的情形。 31 耶和華對我說，『看啊，我已把西宏和他的土地交給你了，去佔領那裡，奪取他的土地吧。』 32 西宏率領全軍在雅雜與我們交戰。 33 我們的上帝耶和華使西宏父子及其軍隊敗在我們手下，全軍覆沒。 34 我們攻佔了西宏的所有城邑，將其夷為平地，殺光城中的男女老幼，一個不留， 35 只留下牲畜和財物作戰利品。 36 從亞嫩谷邊的亞羅珥和谷中的城，直到基列的所有城邑全被我們攻克，我們的上帝耶和華把這一切都交給了我們。 37 我們遵照我們的上帝耶和華的吩咐，沒有侵犯亞捫人的土地，即雅博河一帶和山區的城邑。

Deuteronomy 2
New English Translation

The Journey from Kadesh Barnea to Moab

2 Then we turned and set out toward the wilderness on the way to the Red Sea[a] just as the Lord told me to do, detouring around Mount Seir for a long time. 2 At this point the Lord said to me, 3 “You have circled around this mountain long enough; now turn north. 4 Instruct[b] these people as follows: ‘You are about to cross the border of your relatives[c] the descendants of Esau,[d] who inhabit Seir. They will be afraid of you, so watch yourselves carefully. 5 Do not be hostile toward them, because I am not giving you any of their land, not even a footprint, for I have given Mount Seir[e] as an inheritance for Esau. 6 You may purchase[f] food to eat and water to drink from them. 7 All along the way I, the Lord your God,[g] have blessed your every effort.[h] I have[i] been attentive to[j] your travels through this great wilderness. These forty years I have[k] been with you; you have lacked nothing.’”

8 So we turned away from our relatives[l] the descendants of Esau, the inhabitants of Seir, turning from the route of the rift valley[m] which comes up from[n] Elat[o] and Ezion Geber,[p] and traveling the way of the wilderness of Moab. 9 Then the Lord said to me, “Do not harass Moab and provoke them to war, for I will not give you any of their land as your territory. This is because I have given Ar[q] to the descendants of Lot[r] as their possession. 10 (The Emites[s] used to live there, a people as powerful, numerous, and tall as the Anakites. 11 These people, as well as the Anakites, are also considered Rephaites;[t] the Moabites call them Emites. 12 Previously the Horites[u] lived in Seir, but the descendants of Esau dispossessed and destroyed them and settled in their place, just as Israel did to the land it came to possess, the land the Lord gave them.)[v] 13 Now, get up and cross the Wadi Zered.”[w] So we did so.[x] 14 Now the length of time it took for us to go from Kadesh Barnea to the crossing of Wadi Zered was thirty-eight years, time for all the military men of that generation to die, just as the Lord had vowed to them. 15 Indeed, it was the very hand of the Lord that eliminated them from within[y] the camp until they were all gone.

Instructions Concerning Ammon

16 So it was that after all the military men had been eliminated from the community,[z] 17 the Lord said to me, 18 “Today you are going to cross the border of Moab, that is, of Ar.[aa] 19 But when you come close to the Ammonites, do not harass or provoke them because I am not giving you any of the Ammonites’ land as your possession; I have already given it to Lot’s descendants[ab] as their possession.”

20 (That also is considered to be a land of the Rephaites.[ac] The Rephaites lived there originally; the Ammonites call them Zamzummites.[ad] 21 They are a people as powerful, numerous, and tall as the Anakites. But the Lord destroyed the Rephaites[ae] in advance of the Ammonites,[af] so they dispossessed them and settled down in their place. 22 This is exactly what he did for the descendants of Esau who lived in Seir when he destroyed the Horites before them so that they could dispossess them and settle in their area to this very day. 23 As for the Avvites[ag] who lived in settlements as far west as Gaza, Caphtorites[ah] who came from Crete[ai] destroyed them and settled down in their place.)

24 “Get up, make your way across Wadi Arnon. Look, I have already delivered over to you Sihon the Amorite, king of Heshbon,[aj] and his land. Go ahead—take it! Engage him in war! 25 This very day I will begin to fill all the people of the earth[ak] with dread and to terrify them when they hear about you. They will shiver and shake in anticipation of your approach.”[al]

Defeat of Sihon, King of Heshbon

26 Then I sent messengers from the Kedemoth[am] wilderness to King Sihon of Heshbon with an offer of peace: 27 “Let me pass through your land; I will keep strictly to the roadway.[an] I will not turn aside to the right or the left. 28 Sell me food for cash[ao] so that I can eat and sell me water to drink.[ap] Just allow me to go through on foot, 29 just as the descendants of Esau who live at Seir and the Moabites who live in Ar did for me, until I cross the Jordan to the land the Lord our God is giving us.” 30 But King Sihon of Heshbon was unwilling to allow us to pass near him because the Lord our[aq] God had made him obstinate[ar] and stubborn[as] so that he might deliver him over to you[at] this very day. 31 The Lord said to me, “Look! I have already begun to give over Sihon and his land to you. Start right now to take his land as your possession.” 32 When Sihon and all his troops[au] emerged to encounter us in battle at Jahaz,[av] 33 the Lord our God delivered him over to us and we struck him down, along with his sons[aw] and everyone else.[ax] 34 At that time we seized all his cities and put every one of them[ay] under divine judgment,[az] including even the women and children; we left no survivors. 35 We kept only the livestock and plunder from the cities for ourselves. 36 From Aroer,[ba] which is at the edge of Wadi Arnon (it is the city in the wadi),[bb] all the way to Gilead there was not a town able to resist us—the Lord our God gave them all to us. 37 However, you did not approach the land of the Ammonites, the Wadi Jabbok,[bc] the cities of the hill country, or any place else forbidden by the Lord our God.

Footnotes

  1. Deuteronomy 2:1 tn Heb “Reed Sea.” See note on the term “Red Sea” in Deut 1:40.
  2. Deuteronomy 2:4 tn Heb “command” (so KJV, NASB); NRSV “charge the people as follows.”
  3. Deuteronomy 2:4 tn Heb “brothers”; NAB “your kinsmen.”
  4. Deuteronomy 2:4 sn The descendants of Esau (Heb “sons of Esau”; the phrase also occurs in 2:8, 12, 22, 29). These are the inhabitants of the land otherwise known as Edom, south and east of the Dead Sea. Jacob’s brother Esau had settled there after his bitter strife with Jacob (Gen 36:1-8). “Edom” means “reddish,” probably because of the red sandstone of the region, but also by popular etymology because Esau, at birth, was reddish (Gen 25:25).
  5. Deuteronomy 2:5 sn Mount Seir is synonymous with Edom.
  6. Deuteronomy 2:6 tn Heb includes “with silver.”
  7. Deuteronomy 2:7 tn The Hebrew text does not have the first person pronoun; it has been supplied for purposes of English style (the Lord is speaking here).
  8. Deuteronomy 2:7 tn Heb “all the work of your hands.”
  9. Deuteronomy 2:7 tn Heb “he has.” This has been converted to first person in the translation in keeping with English style.
  10. Deuteronomy 2:7 tn Heb “known” (so ASV, NASB); NAB “been concerned about.”
  11. Deuteronomy 2:7 tn Heb “the Lord your God has.” This has been replaced in the translation by the first person pronoun (“I”) in keeping with English style.
  12. Deuteronomy 2:8 tn Or “brothers”; NRSV “our kin.”
  13. Deuteronomy 2:8 sn As a geographic feature the rift valley (עֲרָבָה, ʿaravah) extends from the Gulf of Aqaba to Galilee. Traveling up the middle of the rift valley probably would have been the easiest path, at least up to the Dead Sea.
  14. Deuteronomy 2:8 tn Heb “from.”
  15. Deuteronomy 2:8 sn Elat was a port city at the head of the eastern arm of the Red Sea, that is, the Gulf of Aqaba (or Gulf of Eilat). Solomon (1 Kgs 9:28), Uzziah (2 Kgs 14:22), and Ahaz (2 Kgs 16:5-6) used it as a port but eventually it became permanently part of Edom. It may be what is known today as Tell el-Kheleifeh. Modern Eilat is located farther west along the northern coast. See G. Pratico, “Nelson Glueck’s 1938-1940 Excavations at Tell el-Kheleifeh: A Reappraisal,” BASOR 259 (1985): 1-32.
  16. Deuteronomy 2:8 sn Ezion Geber. A place near the Gulf of Aqaba, Ezion-geber must be distinguished from Elat (cf. 1 Kgs 9:26-28; 2 Chr 8:17-18). It was, however, also a port city (1 Kgs 22:48-49). It may be the same as the modern site Gezirat al-Fauran, 15 mi (24 km) south-southwest from Tell el-Kheleifah.
  17. Deuteronomy 2:9 sn Ar was a Moabite city on the Arnon River east of the Dead Sea. It is mentioned elsewhere in the “Book of the Wars of Yahweh” (Num 21:15; cf. 21:28; Isa 15:1). Here it is synonymous with the whole land of Moab.
  18. Deuteronomy 2:9 sn The descendants of Lot. Following the destruction of the cities of the plain, Sodom and Gomorrah, as God’s judgment, Lot fathered two sons by his two daughters, namely, Moab and Ammon (Gen 19:30-38). Thus, these descendants of Lot in and around Ar were the Moabites.
  19. Deuteronomy 2:10 sn Emites. These giant people, like the Anakites (Deut 1:28), were also known as Rephaites (v. 11). They appear elsewhere in the narrative of the invasion of the kings of the east where they are said to have lived around Shaveh Kiriathaim, perhaps 9 to 11 mi (15 to 18 km) east of the north end of the Dead Sea (Gen 14:5).
  20. Deuteronomy 2:11 sn Rephaites. The earliest reference to this infamous giant race is, again, in the story of the invasion of the eastern kings (Gen 14:5). They lived around Ashteroth Karnaim, probably modern Tel Ashtarah (cf. Deut 1:4), in the Bashan plateau east of the Sea of Galilee. Og, king of Bashan, was a Rephaite (Deut 3:11; Josh 12:4; 13:12). Other texts speak of them or their kinfolk in both Transjordan (Deut 2:20; 3:13) and Canaan (Josh 11:21-22; 14:12, 15; 15:13-14; Judg 1:20; 1 Sam 17:4; 1 Chr 20:4-8). They also appear in extra-biblical literature, especially in connection with the city state of Ugarit. See C. L’Heureux, “Ugaritic and Biblical Rephaim,” HTR 67 (1974): 265-74.
  21. Deuteronomy 2:12 sn Horites. Most likely these are the same as the well-known people of ancient Near Eastern texts described as Hurrians. They were geographically widespread and probably non-Semitic. Genesis speaks of them as the indigenous peoples of Edom that Esau expelled (Gen 36:8-19, 31-43) and also as among those who confronted the kings of the east (Gen 14:6).
  22. Deuteronomy 2:12 tn Most modern English versions, beginning with the ASV (1901), regard vv. 10-12 as parenthetical to the narrative.
  23. Deuteronomy 2:13 sn Wadi Zered. Now known as Wadi el-Ḥesa, this valley marked the boundary between Moab to the north and Edom to the south.
  24. Deuteronomy 2:13 tn Heb “we crossed the Wadi Zered.” This has been translated as “we did so” for stylistic reasons, to avoid redundancy.
  25. Deuteronomy 2:15 tn Heb “from the middle of.” Although many recent English versions leave this expression untranslated, the point seems to be that these soldiers did not die in battle but “within the camp.”
  26. Deuteronomy 2:16 tn Heb “and it was when they were eliminated, all the men of war, to die from the midst of the people.”
  27. Deuteronomy 2:18 sn Ar. See note on this word in Deut 2:9.
  28. Deuteronomy 2:19 sn Lot’s descendants. See note on this phrase in Deut 2:9.
  29. Deuteronomy 2:20 sn Rephaites. See note on this word in Deut 2:11.
  30. Deuteronomy 2:20 sn Zamzummites. Just as the Moabites called Rephaites by the name Emites, the Ammonites called them Zamzummites (or Zazites; Gen 14:5).
  31. Deuteronomy 2:21 tn Heb “them”; the referent (the Rephaites) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
  32. Deuteronomy 2:21 tn Heb “them”; the referent (the Ammonites) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
  33. Deuteronomy 2:23 sn Avvites. Otherwise unknown, these people were probably also Anakite (or Rephaite) giants who lived in the lower Mediterranean coastal plain until they were expelled by the Caphtorites.
  34. Deuteronomy 2:23 sn Caphtorites. These peoples are familiar from both the OT (Gen 10:14; 1 Chr 1:12; Jer 47:4; Amos 9:7) and ancient Near Eastern texts (Miriam Lichtheim, Ancient Egyptian Literature, 2:37-38; ANET 138). They originated in Crete (OT “Caphtor”) and are identified as the ancestors of the Philistines (Gen 10:14; Jer 47:4).
  35. Deuteronomy 2:23 tn Heb “Caphtor”; the modern name of the island of Crete is used in the translation for clarity (cf. NCV, TEV, NLT).
  36. Deuteronomy 2:24 sn Heshbon is the name of a prominent site (now Tel Hesbān, about 7.5 mi [12 km] south southwest of Amman, Jordan). Sihon made it his capital after having driven Moab from the area and forced them south to the Arnon (Num 21:26-30). Heshbon is also mentioned in Deut 1:4.
  37. Deuteronomy 2:25 tn Heb “under heaven” (so NIV, NRSV).
  38. Deuteronomy 2:25 tn Heb “from before you.”
  39. Deuteronomy 2:26 sn Kedemoth. This is probably Aleiyan, about 8 mi (13 km) north of the Arnon and between Dibon and Mattanah.
  40. Deuteronomy 2:27 tn Heb “in the way in the way” (בַּדֶּרֶךְ בַּדֶּרֶךְ, badderekh badderekh). The repetition lays great stress on the idea of resolute determination to stick to the path. IBHS 116 §7.2.3c.
  41. Deuteronomy 2:28 tn Heb “silver.”
  42. Deuteronomy 2:28 tn Heb “and water for silver give to me so that I may drink.”
  43. Deuteronomy 2:30 tc The translation follows the LXX in reading the first person pronoun. The MT, followed by many English versions, has a second person masculine singular pronoun, “your.”
  44. Deuteronomy 2:30 tn Heb “hardened his spirit” (so KJV, NASB, NRSV); NIV “made his spirit stubborn.”
  45. Deuteronomy 2:30 tn Heb “made his heart obstinate” (so KJV, NASB); NRSV “made his heart defiant.”
  46. Deuteronomy 2:30 tn Heb “into your hand.”
  47. Deuteronomy 2:32 tn Heb “people.”
  48. Deuteronomy 2:32 sn Jahaz. This is probably Khirbet el-Medeiyineh. See J. Dearman, “The Levitical Cities of Reuben and Moabite Toponymy,” BASOR 276 (1984): 55-57.
  49. Deuteronomy 2:33 tc The translation follows the Qere or marginal reading; the Kethib (consonantal text) has the singular, “his son.”
  50. Deuteronomy 2:33 tn Heb “all his people.”
  51. Deuteronomy 2:34 tn Heb “every city of men.” This apparently identifies the cities as inhabited.
  52. Deuteronomy 2:34 tn Heb “under the ban” (נַחֲרֵם, nakharem). The verb employed is חָרַם (kharam, usually in the Hiphil) and the associated noun is חֵרֶם (kherem). See J. Naudé, NIDOTTE, 2:276-77, and, for a more thorough discussion, Susan Niditch, War in the Hebrew Bible, 28-77.sn Divine judgment refers to God’s designation of certain persons, places, and things as objects of his special wrath and judgment because, in his omniscience, he knows them to be impure and hopelessly unrepentant.
  53. Deuteronomy 2:36 sn Aroer. Now known as ʿAraʾir on the northern edge of the Arnon river, Aroer marked the southern limit of Moab and, later, of the allotment of the tribe of Reuben (Josh 13:9, 16).
  54. Deuteronomy 2:36 tn Heb “the city in the wadi.” This enigmatic reference may refer to Ar or, more likely, to Aroer itself. Epexegetically the text might read, “From Aroer…, that is, the city in the wadi.” See D. L. Christensen, Deuteronomy 1-11 (WBC), 49.
  55. Deuteronomy 2:37 sn Wadi Jabbok. Now known as the Zerqa River, this is a major tributary of the Jordan that normally served as a boundary between Ammon and Gad (Deut 3:16).

Deuteronomy 2
New International Version

Wanderings in the Wilderness

2 Then we turned back and set out toward the wilderness along the route to the Red Sea,[a](A) as the Lord had directed me. For a long time we made our way around the hill country of Seir.(B)

2 Then the Lord said to me, 3 “You have made your way around this hill country long enough;(C) now turn north. 4 Give the people these orders:(D) ‘You are about to pass through the territory of your relatives the descendants of Esau,(E) who live in Seir.(F) They will be afraid(G) of you, but be very careful. 5 Do not provoke them to war, for I will not give you any of their land, not even enough to put your foot on. I have given Esau the hill country of Seir as his own.(H) 6 You are to pay them in silver for the food you eat and the water you drink.’”

7 The Lord your God has blessed you in all the work of your hands. He has watched(I) over your journey through this vast wilderness.(J) These forty years(K) the Lord your God has been with you, and you have not lacked anything.(L)

8 So we went on past our relatives the descendants of Esau, who live in Seir. We turned from(M) the Arabah(N) road, which comes up from Elath and Ezion Geber,(O) and traveled along the desert road of Moab.(P)

9 Then the Lord said to me, “Do not harass the Moabites or provoke them to war, for I will not give you any part of their land. I have given Ar(Q) to the descendants of Lot(R) as a possession.”

10 (The Emites(S) used to live there—a people strong and numerous, and as tall as the Anakites.(T) 11 Like the Anakites, they too were considered Rephaites,(U) but the Moabites called them Emites. 12 Horites(V) used to live in Seir, but the descendants of Esau drove them out. They destroyed the Horites from before them and settled in their place, just as Israel did(W) in the land the Lord gave them as their possession.)

13 And the Lord said, “Now get up and cross the Zered Valley.(X)” So we crossed the valley.

14 Thirty-eight years(Y) passed from the time we left Kadesh Barnea(Z) until we crossed the Zered Valley. By then, that entire generation(AA) of fighting men had perished from the camp, as the Lord had sworn to them.(AB) 15 The Lord’s hand was against them until he had completely eliminated(AC) them from the camp.

16 Now when the last of these fighting men among the people had died, 17 the Lord said to me, 18 “Today you are to pass by the region of Moab at Ar.(AD) 19 When you come to the Ammonites,(AE) do not harass them or provoke them to war,(AF) for I will not give you possession of any land belonging to the Ammonites. I have given it as a possession to the descendants of Lot.(AG)”

20 (That too was considered a land of the Rephaites,(AH) who used to live there; but the Ammonites called them Zamzummites. 21 They were a people strong and numerous, and as tall as the Anakites.(AI) The Lord destroyed them from before the Ammonites, who drove them out and settled in their place. 22 The Lord had done the same for the descendants of Esau, who lived in Seir,(AJ) when he destroyed the Horites from before them. They drove them out and have lived in their place to this day. 23 And as for the Avvites(AK) who lived in villages as far as Gaza,(AL) the Caphtorites(AM) coming out from Caphtor[b](AN) destroyed them and settled in their place.)

Defeat of Sihon King of Heshbon

24 “Set out now and cross the Arnon Gorge.(AO) See, I have given into your hand Sihon the Amorite,(AP) king of Heshbon, and his country. Begin to take possession of it and engage(AQ) him in battle. 25 This very day I will begin to put the terror(AR) and fear(AS) of you on all the nations under heaven. They will hear reports of you and will tremble(AT) and be in anguish because of you.”

26 From the Desert of Kedemoth(AU) I sent messengers to Sihon(AV) king of Heshbon offering peace(AW) and saying, 27 “Let us pass through your country. We will stay on the main road; we will not turn aside to the right or to the left.(AX) 28 Sell us food to eat(AY) and water to drink for their price in silver. Only let us pass through on foot(AZ)— 29 as the descendants of Esau, who live in Seir, and the Moabites, who live in Ar, did for us—until we cross the Jordan into the land the Lord our God is giving us.” 30 But Sihon king of Heshbon refused to let us pass through. For the Lord(BA) your God had made his spirit stubborn(BB) and his heart obstinate(BC) in order to give him into your hands,(BD) as he has now done.

31 The Lord said to me, “See, I have begun to deliver Sihon and his country over to you. Now begin to conquer and possess his land.”(BE)

32 When Sihon and all his army came out to meet us in battle(BF) at Jahaz, 33 the Lord our God delivered(BG) him over to us and we struck him down,(BH) together with his sons and his whole army. 34 At that time we took all his towns and completely destroyed[c](BI) them—men, women and children. We left no survivors. 35 But the livestock(BJ) and the plunder(BK) from the towns we had captured we carried off for ourselves. 36 From Aroer(BL) on the rim of the Arnon Gorge, and from the town in the gorge, even as far as Gilead,(BM) not one town was too strong for us. The Lord our God gave(BN) us all of them. 37 But in accordance with the command of the Lord our God,(BO) you did not encroach on any of the land of the Ammonites,(BP) neither the land along the course of the Jabbok(BQ) nor that around the towns in the hills.

Deuteronomio 2
Magandang Balita Biblia (with Deuterocanon)

2 Tulad(A) ng utos sa akin ni Yahweh, nagbalik tayo sa ilang, tungo sa Dagat na Pula.[a] Matagal din tayong naglakbay sa kaburulan ng Seir.

2 “Pagkatapos, sinabi sa akin ni Yahweh, 3 ‘Matagal na rin kayong nagpapaikut-ikot sa kaburulang ito. Ngayon, lumakad na kayo papuntang hilaga. 4 Dadaan(B) kayo sa Seir, ang lupain ng mga kamag-anak ninyo, ang lahi ni Esau. Takot sila sa inyo ngunit mag-ingat pa rin kayo. 5 Huwag ninyo silang kakalabanin sapagkat kapiraso man ng lupain nila'y hindi ko ibibigay sa inyo. Ibinigay ko na sa lahi ni Esau ang kaburulan ng Seir. 6 Bibilhin ninyo ang pagkain at inuming kukunin ninyo sa kanila.’

7 “Pinagpala kayo ni Yahweh sa lahat ng inyong ginawa, at hindi niya kayo hiniwalayan sa inyong paglalakbay sa ilang. Sa loob ng apatnapung taon, hindi kayo nagkulang sa anumang bagay.

8 “Kaya dumaan lamang tayo sa kanilang lupain at nagpatuloy sa paglalakbay palayo sa Araba, Elat at Ezion-geber. At tayo ay napunta sa ilang ng Moab.

9 “At(C) sinabi sa akin ni Yahweh, ‘Huwag rin ninyong guguluhin o sasalakayin ang mga Moabita sapagkat kapiraso man ng lupain nila ay hindi ko ibibigay sa inyo. Ang lupain ng Ar ay ibinigay ko na sa lahi ni Lot.’”

(10 Ang dating nakatira roon ay ang mga Emita. Marami sila at malalaki ring tulad ng mga higante. 11 Tulad ng mga higante, kilala rin sila sa tawag na Refaim, ngunit Emita ang tawag sa kanila ng mga Moabita. 12 Dati, nakatira rin sa Seir ang mga taga-Hor, ngunit pinuksa sila ng mga anak ni Esau, at sila ang nanirahan roon, tulad ng ginawa ng mga Israelita sa lupaing ibinigay sa kanila ni Yahweh.)

13 “‘Ngayon nga'y magpatuloy kayo; tumawid kayo sa batis ng Zared.’ At ganoon nga ang ginawa natin. 14 Tatlumpu't(D) walong taon ang nakalipas mula nang umalis tayo sa Kades-barnea hanggang sa pagtawid natin sa Zared. Tulad ng isinumpa ni Yahweh, walang natira sa mga mandirigma ng salinlahing iyon. 15 Patuloy silang nilabanan ni Yahweh hanggang malipol silang lahat.

16 “Nang wala na ngang natitira sa mga mandirigma ng lahing iyon, 17 sinabi sa akin ni Yahweh, 18 ‘Ngayon ay tumawid kayo sa Ar, sa hangganan ng Moab. 19 Pagdaan(E) ninyo sa lupain ng mga anak ni Ammon, huwag ninyo silang guguluhin o didigmain sapagkat kapiraso man ng lupa nila'y hindi ko ibibigay sa inyo. Ibinigay ko na iyon sa mga anak ni Lot.’”

(20 Ang lupaing iyon ay dating sakop ng mga Refaim, na ang tawag ng mga Ammonita ay Zamzumim. 21 Marami rin sila at malalaking tulad ng mga higante. Ngunit pinuksa sila ni Yahweh; kaya't itinaboy sila ng mga Ammonita upang ang mga ito ang tumira roon. 22 Gayundin ang ginawa ni Yahweh sa lahi ni Esau nang ang mga ito'y magpunta sa Seir; itinaboy niya ang mga taga-Hor at ang lahi ni Esau ang nanirahan roon. 23 Ang mga taga-Awim naman sa Gaza ay itinaboy ng mga taga-Caftor at sila ang tumira roon.)

24 “At doon ay sinabi ni Yahweh, ‘Magpatuloy kayo; tumawid kayo sa Ilog Arnon. Mabibihag ninyo si Sihon, ang hari ng mga Amoreo sa Hesbon, at masasakop ninyo ang kanyang lupain. Kaya't simulan na ninyo ang pagsakop sa lupain niya. 25 Dahil sa gagawin ko ay matatakot sa inyo ang lahat ng bansa sa daigdig. Mabanggit lamang kayo'y manginginig na sila sa takot.’

Nalupig ng Israel si Haring Sihon(F)

26 “At mula sa ilang ng Kedemot, nagpadala ako ng sugo kay Haring Sihon na taga-Hesbon upang mag-alok ng kapayapaan: 27 ‘Makikiraan kami sa iyong lupain. Hindi kami lilihis ng daan. 28 Babayaran namin ang aming kakainin at iinumin. Kung maaari'y paraanin mo lang kami 29 tulad ng ginawa ng mga anak ni Esau sa Seir at ng mga Moabita sa Ar. Makikiraan lamang kami para makarating sa kabila ng Jordan, sa lupaing ibinigay sa amin ni Yahweh, na aming Diyos.’

30 “Ngunit hindi niya ito pinahintulutan. Siya'y pinagmatigas ni Yahweh para matalo natin at makuha ang kanyang lupain na hanggang ngayon ay sakop natin.

31 “At sinabi sa akin ni Yahweh, ‘Ito na ang simula ng pagbagsak ng kaharian ni Haring Sihon sa inyong mga kamay; sakupin na ninyo ang kanyang lupain.’ 32 Sinalakay tayo ni Sihon at ng lahat ng kanyang mga tauhan sa Jahaz. 33 Ngunit siya at ang kanyang mga tauhan ay natalo natin sa tulong ni Yahweh. 34 Nasakop natin ang kanyang mga lunsod; giniba natin ang mga ito at walang itinirang buháy isa man sa mga tagaroon. 35 Ang kanilang mga hayop at ari-arian ay sinamsam natin. 36 Walang lunsod na hindi natin napasok, mula sa Aroer hanggang Gilead; lahat ay nasakop natin sa tulong ni Yahweh. 37 Ngunit hindi natin ginalaw ang lupain ng lahi ni Ammon, ang baybayin ng Ilog Jabok, at ang kaburulan, sapagkat iyon ang kabilin-bilinan ni Yahweh na ating Diyos.
