Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
1And the sons of Ruben and Gad had many flocks of cattle, and their substance in beasts was infinite. And when they saw the lands of Jazer and Galaad fit for feeding cattle,
1呂便 子孫和 迦得 子孫的牲畜極其眾多;他們看見 雅謝 地和 基列 地是可牧放牲畜之地,
2They came to Moses and Eleazar the priest, and the princes of the multitude, and said:
2就來見 摩西 和祭司 以利亞撒 ,並會眾的首領,說:
3Ataroth, and Dibon, and Jazer, and Nemra, Hesebon, and Eleale, and Saban, and Nebo, and Beon,
3「 亞大錄 、 底本 、 雅謝 、 寧拉 、 希實本 、 以利亞利 、 示班 、 尼波 、 比穩 ,
4The land, which the Lord hath conquered in the sight of the children of Israel, is a very fertile soil for the feeding of beasts: and we thy servants have very much cattle:
4就是耶和華在 以色列 會眾前面所攻取之地,是可牧放牲畜之地,你僕人也有牲畜」;
5And we pray thee, if we have found favour in thy sight, that thou give it to us thy servants in possession, and make us not pass over the Jordan.
5又說:「我們若在你眼前蒙恩,求你把這地給我們為業,不要領我們過 約旦河 。」
6And Moses answered them: What, shall your brethren go to fight, and will you sit here?
6摩西 對 迦得 子孫和 呂便 子孫說:「難道你們的弟兄去打仗,你們竟坐在這裏嗎?
7Why do ye overturn the minds of the children of Israel, that they may not dare to pass into the place which the Lord hath given them?
7你們為何使 以色列 人灰心喪膽、不過去進入耶和華所賜給他們的那地呢?
8Was it not thus your fathers did, when I sent from Cadesbarne to view the land?
8我先前從 加低斯‧巴尼亞 打發你們先祖去窺探那地,他們也是這樣行。
9And when they were come as far as the valley of the cluster, having viewed all the country, they overturned the hearts of the children of Israel, that they should not enter into the coasts, which the Lord gave them.
9他們上 以實各谷 ,去窺探那地回來的時候,使 以色列 人灰心喪膽,不進入耶和華所賜給他們的地。
10And he swore in his anger, saying:
10當日,耶和華的怒氣發作,就起誓說:
11If these men, that came up out of Egypt, from twenty years old and upward, shall see the land, which I promised with an oath to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob: because they would not follow me,
11『凡從 埃及 上來、二十歲以外的人斷不得看見我對 亞伯拉罕 、 以撒 、 雅各 起誓應許之地,因為他們沒有專心跟從我。
12Except Caleb the son of Jephone the Cenezite, and Josue the son of Nun: these have fulfilled my will.
12惟有 基尼洗 族 耶孚尼 的兒子 迦勒 和 嫩 的兒子 約書亞 可以看見,因為他們專心跟從我。』
13And the Lord being angry against Israel, led them about through the desert forty years, until the whole generation, that had done evil in his sight, was consumed.
13耶和華的怒氣向 以色列 人發作,使他們在曠野飄流四十年,等到在耶和華眼前行惡的那一代人都消滅了。
14And behold, said he, you are risen up instead of your fathers, the increase and offspring of sinful men, to augment the fury of the Lord against Israel.
14誰知,你們起來接續先祖,增添罪人的數目,使耶和華向 以色列 大發烈怒。
15For if you will not follow him, he will leave the people in the wilderness, and you shall be the cause of the destruction of all.
15你們若退後不跟從他,他還要把 以色列 人撇在曠野,便是你們使這眾民滅亡。」
16But they coming near, said: We will make sheepfolds, and stalls for our cattle, and strong cities for our children:
16兩支派的人挨近 摩西 ,說:「我們要在這裏為牲畜壘圈,為 婦人 孩子造城。
17And we ourselves will go armed and ready for battle before the children of Israel, until we bring them in unto their places. Our little ones, and all we have, shall be in walled cities, for fear of the ambushes of the inhabitants.
17我們自己要帶兵器行在 以色列 人的前頭,好把他們領到他們的地方;但我們的 婦人 孩子,因這地居民的緣故,要住在堅固的城內。
18We will not return into our houses until the children of Israel possess their inheritance:
18我們不回家,直等到 以色列 人各承受自己的產業。
19Neither will we seek any thing beyond the Jordan, because we have already our possession on the east side thereof,
19我們不和他們在 約旦河 那邊一帶之地同受產業,因為我們的產業是坐落在 約旦河 東邊這裏。」
20And Moses said to them: If you do what you promise, go on well appointed for war before the Lord:
20摩西 對他們說:「你們若這樣行,在耶和華面前帶着兵器出去打仗,
21And let every fighting man pass over the Jordan, until the Lord overthrow his enemies:
21所有帶兵器的人都要在耶和華面前過 約旦河 ,等他趕出他的仇敵,
22And all the land be brought under him, then shall you be blameless before the Lord and before Israel, and you shall obtain the countries that you desire, before the Lord.
22那地被耶和華制伏了,然後你們可以回來,向耶和華和 以色列 才為無罪,這地也必在耶和華面前歸你們為業。
23But if you do not what you say, no man can doubt but you sin against God: and know ye, that your sin shall overtake you.
23倘若你們不這樣行,就得罪耶和華,要知道你們的罪必追上你們。
24Build therefore cities for your children, and folds and stalls for your sheep and beasts, and accomplish what you have promised.
24如今你們口中所出的,只管去行,為你們的 婦人 孩子造城,為你們的羊群壘圈。」
25And the children of Gad and Ruben said to Moses: We are thy servants, we will do what my lord commandeth.
25迦得 子孫和 呂便 子孫對 摩西 說:「僕人要照我主所吩咐的去行。
26We will leave our children, and our wives and sheep and cattle, in the cities of Galaad:
26我們的妻子、孩子、羊群,和所有的牲畜都要留在 基列 的各城。
27And we thy servants all well appointed will march on to the war, as thou, my lord, speakest.
27但你的僕人,凡帶兵器的,都要照我主所說的話,在耶和華面前過去打仗。」
28Moses therefore commanded Eleazar the priest, and Josue the son of Nun, and the princes of the families of all the tribes of Israel, and said to them:
28於是, 摩西 為他們囑咐祭司 以利亞撒 和 嫩 的兒子 約書亞 ,並 以色列 眾支派的族長,說:
29If the children of Gad, and the children of Ruben pass with you over the Jordan, all armed for war before the Lord, and the land be made subject to you: give them Galaad in possession.
29「 迦得 子孫和 呂便 子孫,凡帶兵器在耶和華面前去打仗的,若與你們一同過 約旦河 ,那地被你們制伏了,你們就要把 基列 地給他們為業。
30But if they will not pass armed with you into the land of Chanaan, let them receive places to dwell in among you.
30倘若他們不帶兵器和你們一同過去,就要在 迦南 地你們中間得產業。」
31And the children of Gad, and the children of Ruben answered: As the Lord hath spoken to his servants, so will we do:
31迦得 子孫和 呂便 子孫回答說:「耶和華怎樣吩咐僕人,僕人就怎樣行。
32We will go armed before the Lord into the land of Chanaan, and we confess that we have already received our possession beyond the Jordan.
32我們要帶兵器,在耶和華面前過去,進入 迦南 地,只是 約旦河 這邊、我們所得為業之地 仍歸 我們。」
33Moses therefore gave to the children of Cad and of Ruben, and to the half tribe of Manasses the son of Joseph, the kingdom of Sehon king of the Amorrhites, and the kingdom of Og king of Basan, and their land and the cities thereof round about.
33摩西 將 亞摩利 王 西宏 的國和 巴珊 王 噩 的國,連那地和周圍的城邑,都給了 迦得 子孫和 呂便 子孫,並 約瑟 的兒子 瑪拿西 半個支派。
34And the sons of Cad built Dibon, and Ataroth, and Aroer,
34迦得 子孫建造 底本 、 亞他錄 、 亞羅珥 、
35And Etroth, and Sophan, and Jazer, and Jegbaa,
35亞他錄‧朔反 、 雅謝 、 約比哈 、
36And Bethnemra, and Betharan, fenced cities, and folds for their cattle.
36伯‧寧拉 、 伯‧哈蘭 ,都是堅固城。他們又壘羊圈。
37But the children of Ruben built Hesebon, and Eleale, and Cariathaim,
37呂便 子孫建造 希實本 、 以利亞利 、 基列亭 、
38And Nabo, and Baalmeon (their names being changed) and Sabama: giving names to the cities which they had built.
38尼波 、 巴力‧免 、 西比瑪 ( 尼波 、 巴力‧免 ,名字是改了的),又給他們所建造的城另起別名。
39Moreover the children of Machir, the son of Manasses, went into Galaad, and wasted it, cutting off the Amorrhites, the inhabitants thereof.
39瑪拿西 的兒子 瑪吉 ,他的子孫往 基列 去,佔了那地,趕出那裏的 亞摩利 人。
40And Moses gave the land of Galaad to Machir the son of Manasses, and he dwelt in it.
40摩西 將 基列 賜給 瑪拿西 的兒子 瑪吉 ,他 子孫 就住在那裏。
41And Jair the son of Manasses went, and took the villages thereof, and he called them Havoth Jair, that is to say, the villages of Jair.
41瑪拿西 的子孫 睚珥 去佔了 基列 的村莊,就稱這些村莊為 哈倭特‧睚珥 。
42Nobe also went, and took Canath with the villages thereof: and he called it by his own name, Nobe.
42挪巴 去佔了 基納 和 基納 的鄉村,就按自己的名稱 基納 為 挪巴 。
