1ΚΑΙ ἤκουσεν ὁ Χανανεὶς βασιλεὺς Ἀρὰδ ὁ κατοικῶν κατὰ τὴν ἔρημον, ὅτι ἦλθεν Ἰσραὴλ ὁδὸν Ἀθαρείν, καὶ ἐπολέμησε πρὸς Ἰσραὴλ καὶ καταπροενόμευσεν ἐξ αὐτῶν αἰχμαλωσίαν.
1And the Canaanite, the king of Arad, who dwelt in the South, heard tell that Israel came by the way of Atharim; and he fought against Israel, and took some of them captive.
2καὶ ηὔξατο Ἰσραὴλ εὐχὴν Κυρίῳ καὶ εἶπεν· ἐάν μοι παραδῷς τὸν λαὸν τοῦτον ὑποχείριον, ἀναθεματιῶ αὐτὸν καὶ τὰς πόλεις αὐτοῦ.
2And 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.'
3καὶ εἰσήκουσε Κύριος τῆς φωνῆς Ἰσραὴλ καὶ παρέδωκε τὸν Χανανεὶν ὑποχείριον αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἀνεθεμάτισεν αὐτὸν καὶ τὰς πόλεις αὐτοῦ· καὶ ἐπεκάλεσαν τὸ ὄνομα τοῦ τόπου ἐκείνου Ἀνάθεμα.
3And the LORD hearkened to the voice of Israel, and delivered up the Canaanites; and they utterly destroyed them and their cities; and the name of the place was called Hormah.
4Καὶ ἀπάραντες ἐξ Ὢρ τοῦ ὄρους ὁδὸν ἐπὶ θάλασσαν ἐρυθρὰν περιεκύκλωσαν γῆν Ἐδώμ· καὶ ὠλιγοψύχησεν ὁ λαὸς ἐν τῇ ὁδῷ.
4And they journeyed from mount Hor by the way to the Red Sea, to compass the land of Edom; and the soul of the people became impatient because of the way.
5καὶ κατελάλει ὁ λαὸς πρὸς τὸν Θεὸν καὶ κατὰ Μωυσῆ λέγοντες· ἱνατί τοῦτο; ἐξήγαγες ἡμᾶς ἐξ Αἰγύπτου, ἀποκτεῖναι ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ; ὅτι οὐκ ἔστιν ἄρτος οὐδὲ ὕδωρ, ἡ δὲ ψυχὴ ἡμῶν προσώχθισεν ἐν τῷ ἄρτῳ τῷ διακένῳ τούτῳ.
5And the people spoke against God, and against Moses: 'Wherefore have ye brought us up out of Egypt to die in the wilderness? for there is no bread, and there is no water; and our soul loatheth this light bread.'
6καὶ ἀπέστειλε Κύριος εἰς τὸν λαὸν τοὺς ὄφεις τοὺς θανατοῦντας, καὶ ἔδακνον τὸν λαόν, καὶ ἀπέθανε λαὸς πολὺς τῶν υἱῶν Ἰσραήλ.
6And the LORD sent fiery serpents among the people, and they bit the people; and much people of Israel died.
7καὶ παραγενόμενος ὁ λαὸς πρὸς Μωυσῆν ἔλεγον· ὅτι ἡμάρτομεν, ὅτι κατελαλήσαμεν κατὰ τοῦ Κυρίου καὶ κατὰ σοῦ· εὖξαι οὖν πρὸς Κύριον, καὶ ἀφελέτω ἀφ' ἡμῶν τὸν ὄφιν. καὶ ηὔξατο Μωυσῆς πρὸς Κύριον περὶ τοῦ λαοῦ.
7And the people came to Moses, and said: 'We have sinned, because 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.
8καὶ εἶπε Κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν· ποίησον σεαυτῷ ὄφιν καὶ θὲς αὐτὸν ἐπὶ σημείου, καὶ ἔσται ἐὰν δάκῃ ὄφις ἄνθρωπον, πᾶς ὁ δεδηγμένος ἰδὼν αὐτὸν ζήσεται.
8And 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 seeth it, shall live.'
9καὶ ἐποίησε Μωυσῆς ὄφιν χαλκοῦν καὶ ἔστησεν αὐτὸν ἐπὶ σημείου, καὶ ἐγένετο ὅταν ἔδακνεν ὄφις ἄνθρωπον, καὶ ἐπέβλεψεν ἐπὶ τὸν ὄφιν τὸν χαλκοῦν καὶ ἔζη.
9And Moses made a serpent of brass, and set it upon the pole; and it came to pass, that if a serpent had bitten any man, when he looked unto the serpent of brass, he lived.
10Καὶ ἀπῇραν οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰσραὴλ καὶ παρενέβαλον ἐν Ὠβώθ.
10And the children of Israel journeyed, and pitched in Oboth.
11καὶ ἐξάραντες ἐξ Ὠβώθ, καὶ παρενέβαλον ἐν Ἀχαλγαὶ ἐκ τοῦ πέραν ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ, ἥ ἐστι κατὰ πρόσωπον Μωάβ, κατ' ἀνατολὰς ἡλίου.
11And they journeyed from Oboth, and pitched at Ije-abarim, in the wilderness which is in front of Moab, toward the sun-rising.
12καὶ ἐκεῖθεν ἀπῇραν καὶ παρενέβαλον εἰς φάραγγα Ζαρέδ.
12From thence they journeyed, and pitched in the valley of Zered.
13καὶ ἐκεῖθεν ἀπάραντες παρενέβαλον εἰς τὸ πέραν Ἀρνῶν ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ, τὸ ἐξέχον ἀπὸ τῶν ὁρίων τῶν Ἀμορραίων· ἔστι γὰρ Ἀρνῶν ὅρια Μωὰβ ἀνὰ μέσον Μωὰβ καὶ ἀνὰ μέσον τοῦ Ἀμορραίου.
13From thence they journeyed, and pitched on the other side of the Arnon, which is in the wilderness, that cometh out of the border of the Amorites. — For Arnon is the border of Moab, between Moab and the Amorites;
14διὰ τοῦτο λέγεται ἐν βιβλίῳ· πόλεμος τοῦ Κυρίου τὴν Ζωὸβ ἐφλόγιζε, καὶ τοὺς χειμάρρους Ἀρνῶν,
14wherefore it is said in the book of the Wars of the LORD: Vaheb in Suphah, and the valleys of Arnon,
15καὶ τοὺς χειμάρρους κατέστησε κατοικίσαι Ἤρ, καὶ πρόσκειται τοῖς ὁρίοις Μωάβ.
15And the slope of the valleys that inclineth toward the seat of Ar, and leaneth upon the border of Moab. —
16καὶ ἐκεῖθεν τὸ φρέαρ· τοῦτο τὸ φρέαρ, ὃ εἶπε Κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν· συνάγαγε τὸν λαόν, καὶ δώσω αὐτοῖς ὕδωρ πιεῖν.
16And from thence to Beer; that is the well whereof the LORD said unto Moses: 'Gather the people together, and I will give them water.'
17τότε ᾖσεν Ἰσραὴλ τὸ ᾆσμα τοῦτο ἐπὶ τοῦ φρέατος· ἐξάρχετε αὐτῷ· φρέαρ,
17Then sang Israel this song: Spring up, O well — sing ye unto it —
18ὤρυξαν αὐτὸ ἄρχοντες, ἐξελατόμησαν αὐτὸ βασιλεῖς ἐθνῶν ἐν τῇ βασιλείᾳ αὐτῶν, ἐν τῷ κυριεῦσαι αὐτῶν. καὶ ἀπὸ φρέατος εἰς Μανθαναείν·
18The well, which the princes digged, which the nobles of the people delved, with the sceptre, and with their staves. And from the wilderness to Mattanah;
19καὶ ἀπὸ Μανθαναεὶν εἰς Νααλιήλ· καὶ ἀπὸ Νααλιὴλ εἰς Βαμώθ· καὶ ἀπὸ Βαμὼθ εἰς Ἰανήν, ἥ ἐστιν ἐν τῷ πεδίῳ Μωὰβ ἀπὸ κορυφῆς τοῦ λελαξευμένου τὸ βλέπον κατὰ πρόσωπον τῆς ἐρήμου.
19and from Mattanah to Nahaliel; and from Nahaliel to Bamoth;
20Καὶ ἀπέστειλε Μωυσῆς πρέσβεις πρὸς Σηὼν βασιλέα Ἀμορραίων λόγοις εἰρηνικοῖς λέγων·
20and from Bamoth to the valley that is in the field of Moab, by the top of Pisgah, which looketh down upon the desert.
21παρελευσόμεθα διὰ τῆς γῆς σου· τῇ ὁδῷ πορευσόμεθα, οὐκ ἐκκλινοῦμεν οὔτε εἰς ἀγρὸν οὔτε εἰς ἀμπελῶνα,
21And Israel sent messengers unto Sihon king of the Amorites, saying:
22οὐ πιόμεθα ὕδωρ ἐκ φρέατός σου· ὁδῷ βασιλικῇ πορευσόμεθα, ἕως παρέλθωμεν τὰ ὅριά σου.
22'Let me pass through thy land; we will not turn aside into field, or into vineyard; we will not drink of the water of the wells; we will go by the king's highway, until we have passed thy border.'
23καὶ οὐκ ἔδωκε Σηὼν τῷ Ἰσραὴλ παρελθεῖν διὰ τῶν ὁρίων αὐτοῦ, καὶ συνήγαγε Σηὼν πάντα τὸν λαὸν αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐξῆλθε παρατάξασθαι τῷ Ἰσραὴλ εἰς τὴν ἔρημον καὶ ἦλθεν εἰς Ἰασσὰ καὶ παρετάξατο τῷ Ἰσραήλ.
23And 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 came to Jahaz; and he fought against Israel.
24καὶ ἐπάταξεν αὐτὸν Ἰσραὴλ φόνῳ μαχαίρας καὶ κατεκυρίευσαν τῆς γῆς αὐτοῦ ἀπὸ Ἀρνῶν ἕως Ἰαβόκ, ἕως υἱῶν Ἀμμάν· ὅτι Ἰαζὴρ ὅρια υἱῶν Ἀμμάν ἐστι.
24And Israel smote him with the edge of the sword, and possessed his land from the Arnon unto the Jabbok, even unto the children of Ammon; for the border of the children of Ammon was strong.
25καὶ ἔλαβεν Ἰσραὴλ πάσας τὰς πόλεις ταύτας, καὶ κατῴκησεν Ἰσραὴλ ἐν πάσαις ταῖς πόλεσι τῶν Ἀμορραίων, ἐν Ἐσεβὼν καὶ ἐν πάσαις ταῖς συγκυρούσαις αὐτῇ.
25And Israel took all these cities; and Israel dwelt in all the cities of the Amorites, in Heshbon, and in all the towns thereof.
26ἔστι γὰρ Ἐσεβὼν πόλις Σηὼν τοῦ βασιλέως τῶν Ἀμορραίων, καὶ οὗτος ἐπολέμησε βασιλέα Μωὰβ τὸ πρότερον καὶ ἔλαβον πᾶσαν τὴν γῆν αὐτοῦ ἀπὸ Ἀροὴρ ἕως Ἀρνῶν.
26For 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 the Arnon.
27διὰ τοῦτο ἐροῦσιν οἱ αἰνιγματισταί· ἔλθετε εἰς Ἐσεβών, ἵνα οἰκοδομηθῇ καὶ κατασκευασθῇ πόλις Σηών.
27Wherefore they that speak in parables say: Come ye to Heshbon! let the city of Sihon be built and established!
28ὅτι πῦρ ἐξῆλθεν ἐξ Ἐσεβών, φλὸξ ἐκ πόλεως Σηὼν καὶ κατέφαγεν ἕως Μωὰβ καὶ κατέπιε στήλας Ἀρνῶν.
28For a fire is gone out of Heshbon, a flame from the city of Sihon; it hath devoured Ar of Moab, the lords of the high places of Arnon.
29οὐαί σοι, Μωάβ· ἀπώλου, λαὸς Χαμώς. ἀπεδόθησαν οἱ υἱοὶ αὐτῶν διασῴζεσθαι καὶ αἱ θυγατέρες αὐτῶν αἰχμάλωτοι τῷ βασιλεῖ τῶν Ἀμορραίων Σηών·
29Woe to thee, Moab! thou art undone, O people of Chemosh; he hath given his sons as fugitives, and his daughters into captivity, unto Sihon king of the Amorites.
30καὶ τὸ σπέρμα αὐτῶν ἀπολεῖται, Ἐσεβὼν ἕως Δαιβών, καὶ αἱ γυναῖκες ἔτι προσεξέκαυσαν πῦρ ἐπὶ Μωάβ.
30We have shot at them — Heshbon is perished — even unto Dibon, and we have laid waste even unto Nophah, which reacheth unto Medeba.
31Κατώκησε δὲ Ἰσραὴλ ἐν πάσαις ταῖς πόλεσι τῶν Ἀμορραίων.
31Thus Israel dwelt in the land of the Amorites.
32καὶ ἀπέστειλε Μωυσῆς κατασκέψασθαι τὴν Ἰαζήρ, καὶ κατελάβοντο αὐτὴν καὶ τὰς κώμας αὐτῆς καὶ ἐξέβαλον τὸν Ἀμορραῖον τὸν κατοικοῦντα ἐκεῖ.
32And Moses sent to spy out Jazer, and they took the towns thereof, and drove out the Amorites that were there.
33καὶ ἐπιστρέψαντες ἀνέβησαν ὁδὸν τὴν εἰς Βασάν· καὶ ἐξῆλθεν Ὢγ βασιλεὺς τῆς Βασὰν εἰς συνάντησιν αὐτοῖς καὶ πᾶς ὁ λαὸς αὐτοῦ εἰς πόλεμον εἰς Ἐδραείν.
33And 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 battle at Edrei.
34καὶ εἶπε Κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν· μὴ φοβηθῇς αὐτόν, ὅτι εἰς τὰς χεῖράς σου παραδέδωκα αὐτὸν καὶ πάντα τὸν λαὸν αὐτοῦ καὶ πᾶσαν τὴν γῆν αὐτοῦ, καὶ ποιήσεις αὐτῷ καθὼς ἐποίησας τῷ Σηὼν βασιλεῖ τῶν Ἀμορραίων, ὃς κατῴκει ἐν Ἐσεβών.
34And 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, who dwelt at Heshbon.'
35καὶ ἐπάταξεν αὐτὸν καὶ τοὺς υἱοὺς αὐτοῦ καὶ πάντα τὸν λαὸν αὐτοῦ, ἕως τοῦ μὴ καταλιπεῖν αὐτοῦ ζωγρείαν· καὶ ἐκληρονόμησαν τὴν γῆν αὐτοῦ.
35So they smote him, and his sons, and all his people, until there was none left him remaining; and they possessed his land.
