Septuagint (Brenton Greek text, with Apocrypha)
1Now the children of Reuben and the children of Gad had a very great multitude of livestock. They saw the land of Jazer, and the land of Gilead. Behold, the place was a place for livestock.
1Καὶ κτήνη πλῆθος ἦν τοῖς υἱοῖς Ῥουβὴν καὶ τοῖς υἱοῖς Γὰδ, πλῆθος σφόδρα· καὶ εἶδον τὴν χώραν Ἰαζὴρ, καὶ τὴν χώραν Γαλαάδ· καὶ ἦν ὁ τόπος, τόπος κτήνεσι·
2Then the children of Gad and the children of Reuben came and spoke to Moses, and to Eleazar the priest, and to the princes of the congregation, saying,
2Καὶ προσελθόντες οἱ υἱοὶ Ῥουβὴν καὶ οἱ υἱοὶ Γὰδ, εἶπαν πρὸς Μωυσῆν καὶ πρὸς Ἐλεάζαρ τὸν ἱερέα καὶ πρὸς τοὺς ἄρχοντας τῆς συναγωγῆς, λέγοντες,
3“Ataroth, Dibon, Jazer, Nimrah, Heshbon, Elealeh, Sebam, Nebo, and Beon,
3Ἀταρὼθ, καὶ Δαιβὼν, καὶ Ἰαζὴρ, καὶ Ναμρὰ, καὶ Ἐσεβὼν, καὶ Ἐλεαλὴ, καὶ Σεβαμὰ, καὶ Ναβαὺ, καὶ Βαιάν,
4the land which the LORD struck before the congregation of Israel, is a land for livestock; and your servants have livestock.”
4τὴν γῆν ἣν παραδέδωκε Κύριος ἐνώπιον τῶν υἱῶν Ἰσραήλ, γῆ κτηνοτρόφος ἐστὶ, καὶ τοῖς παισί σου κτήνη ὑπάρχει.
5They said, “If we have found favor in your sight, let this land be given to your servants for a possession. Don’t bring us over the Jordan.”
5Καὶ ἔλεγον, εἰ εὕρομεν χάριν ἐνώπιόν σου, δοθήτω ἡ γῆ αὕτη τοῖς οἰκέταις σου ἐν κατασχέσει, καὶ μὴ διαβιβάσῃς ἡμᾶς τὸν Ἰορδάνην.
6Moses said to the children of Gad, and to the children of Reuben, “Shall your brothers go to war while you sit here?
6Καὶ εἶπε Μωυσῆς τοῖς υἱοῖς Γὰδ καὶ τοῖς υἱοῖς Ῥουβὴν, οἱ ἀδελφοὶ ὑμῶν πορεύονται εἰς τὸν πόλεμον, καὶ ὑμεῖς καθήσεσθε αὐτοῦ;
7Why do you discourage the heart of the children of Israel from going over into the land which the LORD has given them?
7Καὶ ἱνατί διαστρέφετε τὰς διανοίας τῶν υἱῶν Ἰσραὴλ μὴ διαβῆναι εἰς τὴν γῆν, ἣν Κύριος δίδωσιν αὐτοῖς;
8Your fathers did so when I sent them from Kadesh Barnea to see the land.
8Οὐχ οὕτως ἐποίησαν οἱ πατέρες ὑμῶν, ὅτε ἀπέστειλα αὐτοὺς ἐκ Κάδης Βαρνὴ κατανοῆσαι τὴν γῆν;
9For when they went up to the valley of Eshcol, and saw the land, they discouraged the heart of the children of Israel, that they should not go into the land which the LORD had given them.
9καὶ ἀνέβησαν φάραγγα βότρυος, καὶ κατενόησαν τὴν γῆν, καὶ ἀπέστησαν τὴν καρδίαν τῶν υἱῶν Ἰσραὴλ, ὅπως μὴ εἰσέλθωσιν εἰς τὴν γῆν, ἣν ἔδωκε Κύριος αὐτοῖς.
10The LORD’s anger burned in that day, and he swore, saying,
10Καὶ ὠργίσθη θυμῷ Κύριος ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ, καὶ ὤμοσε, λέγων,
11‘Surely none of the men who came up out of Egypt, from twenty years old and upward, shall see the land which I swore to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob; because they have not wholly followed me,
11εἰ ὄψονται οἱ ἄνθρωποι οὗτοι οἱ ἀναβάντες ἐξ Αἰγύπτου ἀπὸ εἰκοσαετοῦς καὶ ἐπάνω, οἱ ἐπιστάμενοι τὸ ἀγαθὸν καὶ τὸ κακὸν, τὴν γῆν ἣν ὤμοσα τῷ Ἁβραὰμ καὶ Ἰσαὰκ καὶ Ἰακὼβ, οὐ γὰρ συνεπηκολούθησαν ὀπίσω μου·
12except Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite, and Joshua the son of Nun, because they have followed the LORD completely.’
12πλὴν Χάλεβ υἱὸς Ἰεφοννὴ ὁ διακεχωρισμένος, καὶ Ἰησοῦς ὁ τοῦ Ναυὴ, ὅτι συνεπηκολούθησεν ὀπίσω Κυρίου.
13The LORD’s anger burned against Israel, and he made them wander back and forth in the wilderness forty years, until all the generation who had done evil in the LORD’s sight was consumed.
13Καὶ ὠργίσθη θυμῷ Κύριος ἐπὶ τὸν Ἰσραήλ, καὶ κατερόμβευσεν αὐτοὺς ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ τεσσεράκοντα ἔτη, ἕως ἐξανηλώθη πᾶσα ἡ γενεὰ, οἱ ποιοῦντες τὰ πονηρὰ ἔναντι Κυρίου.
14“Behold, you have risen up in your fathers’ place, an increase of sinful men, to increase the fierce anger of the LORD toward Israel.
14Ἰδοὺ ἀνέστητε ἀντὶ τῶν πατέρων ὑμῶν, σύντριμμα ἀνθρώπων ἁμαρτωλῶν, προσθεῖναι ἔτι ἐπὶ τὸν θυμὸν τῆς ὀργῆς Κυρίου ἐπὶ Ἰσραήλ.
15For if you turn away from after him, he will yet again leave them in the wilderness; and you will destroy all these people.”
15Ὅτι ἀποστραφήσεσθε ἀπʼ αὐτοῦ προσθεῖναι ἔτι καταλιπεῖν αὐτὸν ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ, καὶ ἀνομήσετε εἰς ὅλην τὴν συναγωγὴν ταύτην.
16They came near to him, and said, “We will build sheepfolds here for our livestock, and cities for our little ones;
16Καὶ προσῆλθον αὐτῷ, καὶ ἔλεγον, ἐπαύλεις προβάτων οἰκοδομήσομεν ὧδε τοῖς κτήνεσιν ἡμῶν, καὶ πόλεις ταῖς ἀποσκευαῖς ἡμῶν.
17but we ourselves will be ready armed to go before the children of Israel, until we have brought them to their place. Our little ones shall dwell in the fortified cities because of the inhabitants of the land.
17Καὶ ἡμεῖς ἐνοπλισάμενοι προφυλακὴν πρότεροι τῶν υἱῶν Ἰσραὴλ, ἕως ἂν ἀγάγωμεν αὐτοὺς εἰς τὸν ἑαυτῶν τόπον· καὶ κατοικήσει ἡ ἀποσκευὴ ἡμῶν ἐν πόλεσι τετειχισμέναις διὰ τοὺς κατοικοῦντας τὴν γῆν.
18We will not return to our houses until the children of Israel have all received their inheritance.
18Οὐ μὴ ἀποστραφῶμεν εἰς τὰς οἰκίας ἡμῶν ἕως ἂν καταμερισθῶσιν οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰσραὴλ, ἕκαστος εἰς τὴν κληρονομίαν αὐτοῦ.
19For we will not inherit with them on the other side of the Jordan and beyond, because our inheritance has come to us on this side of the Jordan eastward.”
19Καὶ οὐκέτι κληρονομήσομεν ἐν αὐτοῖς ἀπὸ τοῦ πέραν τοῦ Ἰορδάνου καὶ ἐπέκεινα, ὅτι ἀπέχομεν τοὺς κλήρους ἡμῶν ἐν τῷ πέραν τοῦ Ἰορδάνου ἐν ἀνατολαῖς.
20Moses said to them: “If you will do this thing, if you will arm yourselves to go before the LORD to the war,
20Καὶ εἶπε πρὸς αὐτοὺς Μωυσῆς, ἐὰν ποιήσητε κατὰ τὸ ῥῆμα τοῦτο, ἐὰν ἐξοπλίσησθε ἔναντι Κυρίου εἰς πόλεμον,
21and every one of your armed men will pass over the Jordan before the LORD until he has driven out his enemies from before him,
21καὶ παρελεύσεται ὑμῶν πᾶς ὁπλίτης τὸν Ἰορδάνην ἔναντι Κυρίου, ἕως ἂν ἐκτριβῇ ὁ ἐχθρὸς αὐτοῦ ἀπὸ προσώπου αὐτοῦ,
22and the land is subdued before the LORD; then afterward you shall return, and be clear of obligation to the LORD and to Israel. Then this land shall be your possession before the LORD.
22καὶ κατακυριευθῇ ἡ γῆ ἔναντι Κυρίου, καὶ μετὰ ταῦτα ἀποστραφήσεσθε, καὶ ἔσεσθε ἀθῶοι ἔναντι Κυρίου, καὶ ἀπὸ Ἰσραήλ· καὶ ἔσται ἡ γῆ αὕτη ὑμῖν ἐν κατασχέσει ἔναντι Κυρίου.
23“But if you will not do so, behold, you have sinned against the LORD; and be sure your sin will find you out.
23Ἐὰν δὲ μὴ ποιήσητε οὕτως, ἁμαρτήσεσθε ἔναντι Κυρίου· καὶ γνώσεσθε τὴν ἁμαρτίαν ὑμῶν, ὅταν ὑμᾶς καταλάβῃ τὰ κακά.
24Build cities for your little ones, and folds for your sheep; and do that which has proceeded out of your mouth.”
24Καὶ οἰκοδομήσετε ὑμῖν ἑαυτοῖς πόλεις τῇ ἀποσκευῇ ὑμῶν, καὶ ἐπαύλεις τοῖς κτήνεσιν ὑμῶν· καὶ τὸ ἐκπορευόμενον ἐκ τοῦ στόματος ὑμῶν ποιήσετε.
25The children of Gad and the children of Reuben spoke to Moses, saying, “Your servants will do as my lord commands.
25Καὶ εἶπαν υἱοὶ Ῥουβὴν καὶ υἱοὶ Γὰδ πρὸς Μωυσῆν, λέγοντες, οἱ παῖδές σου ποιήσουσι καθὰ ὁ Κύριος ἡμῶν ἐντέλλεται.
26Our little ones, our wives, our flocks, and all our livestock shall be there in the cities of Gilead;
26Ἡ ἀποσκευὴ ἡμῶν, καὶ αἱ γυναῖκες ἡμῶν, καὶ πάντα τὰ κτήνη ἡμῶν ἔσονται ἐν ταῖς πόλεσιν Γαλαάδ.
27but your servants will pass over, every man who is armed for war, before the LORD to battle, as my lord says.”
27Οἱ δὲ παῖδές σου παρελεύσονται πάντες ἐνωπλισμένοι καὶ ἐκτεταγμένοι ἔναντι Κυρίου εἰς τὸν πόλεμον, ὃν τρόπον ὁ κύριος λέγει.
28So Moses commanded concerning them to Eleazar the priest, and to Joshua the son of Nun, and to the heads of the fathers’ households of the tribes of the children of Israel.
28Καὶ συνέστησεν αὐτοῖς Μωυσῆς Ἐλεάζαρ τὸν ἱερέα, καὶ Ἰησοῦν υἱὸν Ναυὴ, καὶ τοὺς ἄρχοντας πατριῶν τῶν φυλῶν Ἰσραήλ.
29Moses said to them, “If the children of Gad and the children of Reuben will pass with you over the Jordan, every man who is armed to battle before the LORD, and the land is subdued before you, then you shall give them the land of Gilead for a possession;
29Καὶ εἶπε πρὸς αὐτοὺς Μωυσῆς, ἐὰν διαβῶσιν οἱ υἱοὶ Ῥουβὴν καὶ οἱ υἱοὶ Γὰδ μεθʼ ὑμῶν τὸν Ἰορδάνην, πᾶς ἐνωπλισμένος εἰς πόλεμον ἔναντι Κυρίου, καὶ κατακυριεύσητε τῆς γῆς ἀπέναντι ὑμῶν, καὶ δώσετε αὐτοῖς τὴν γῆν Γαλαὰδ ἐν κατασχέσει.
30but if they will not pass over with you armed, they shall have possessions among you in the land of Canaan.”
30Ἐὰν δὲ μὴ διαβῶσιν ἐνωπλισμένοι μεθʼ ὑμῶν εἰς τὸν πόλεμον ἔναντι Κυρίου, καὶ διαβιβάσετε τὴν ἀποσκευὴν αὐτῶν, καὶ τὰς γυναῖκας αὐτῶν, καὶ τὰ κτήνη αὐτῶν πρότερα ὑμῶν εἰς γῆν Χαναὰν, καὶ συγκατακληρονομηθήσονται ἐν ὑμῖν ἐν τῇ γῇ Χαναάν.
31The children of Gad and the children of Reuben answered, saying, “As the LORD has said to your servants, so will we do.
31Καὶ ἀπεκρίθησαν οἱ υἱοὶ Ῥουβὴν καὶ οἱ υἱοὶ Γὰδ λέγοντες, ὅσα ὁ Κύριος λέγει τοῖς θεράπουσιν, οὕτω ποιήσομεν ἡμεῖς.
32We will pass over armed before the LORD into the land of Canaan, and the possession of our inheritance shall remain with us beyond the Jordan.”
32Διαβησόμεθα ἐνωπλισμένοι ἔναντι Κυρίου εἰς γῆν Χαναὰν, καὶ δώσετε τὴν κατάσχεσιν ἡμῖν ἐν τῷ πέραν τοῦ Ἰορδάνου.
33Moses gave to them, even to the children of Gad, and to the children of Reuben, and to the half-tribe of Manasseh the son of Joseph, the kingdom of Sihon king of the Amorites, and the kingdom of Og king of Bashan; the land, according to its cities and borders, even the cities of the surrounding land.
33Καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτοῖς Μωυσῆς τοῖς υἱοῖς Γὰδ, καὶ τοῖς υἱοῖς Ῥουβὴν, καὶ τῷ ἡμίσει φυλῆς Μανασσῆ υἱῶν Ἰωσὴφ, τὴν βασιλείαν Σηὼν βασιλέως Ἀμοῤῥαίων, καὶ τὴν βασιλείαν Ὢγ βασιλέως τῆς Βασὰν, τὴν γῆν καὶ τὰς πόλεις σὺν τοῖς ὁρίοις αὐτῆς, πόλεις τῆς γῆς κύκλῳ.
34The children of Gad built Dibon, Ataroth, Aroer,
34Καὶ ᾠκοδόμησαν οἱ υἱοὶ Γὰδ τὴν Δαιβὼν, καὶ τὴν Ἀταρὼθ, καὶ τὴν Ἀροὴρ,
35Atroth-shophan, Jazer, Jogbehah,
35καὶ τὴν Σοφὰρ, καὶ τὴν Ἰαζὴρ, καὶ ὕψωσαν αὐτὰς,
36Beth Nimrah, and Beth Haran: fortified cities and folds for sheep.
36καὶ τὴν Ναμρὰμ, καὶ τὴν Βαιθαρὰν, πόλεις ὀχυρὰς, καὶ ἐπαύλεις προβάτων.
37The children of Reuben built Heshbon, Elealeh, Kiriathaim,
37Καὶ οἱ υἱοὶ Ῥουβὴν ᾠκοδόμησαν τὴν Ἐσεβὼν, καὶ Ἐλεάλην, καὶ Καριαθὰμ,
38Nebo, and Baal Meon, (their names being changed), and Sibmah. They gave other names to the cities which they built.
38καὶ τὴν Βεελμεὼν, περικεκυκλωμένας, καὶ τὴν Σεβαμά· καὶ ἐπωνόμασαν κατὰ τὰ ὀνόματα αὐτῶν τὰ ὀνόματα τῶν πόλεων, ἃς ᾠκοδόμησαν.
39The children of Machir the son of Manasseh went to Gilead, took it, and dispossessed the Amorites who were therein.
39Καὶ ἐπορεύθη υἱὸς Μαχὶρ υἱοῦ Μανασσὴ Γαλαὰδ, καὶ ἔλαβεν αὐτὴν, καὶ ἀπώλεσε τὸν Ἀμοῤῥαῖον τὸν κατοικοῦντα ἐν αὐτῇ.
40Moses gave Gilead to Machir the son of Manasseh; and he lived therein.
40Καὶ ἔδωκε Μωυσῆς τὴν Γαλαὰδ τῷ Μαχὶρ υἱῷ Μανασσῆ, καὶ κατῴκησεν ἐκεῖ.
41Jair the son of Manasseh went and took its villages, and called them Havvoth Jair.
41Καὶ Ἰαῒρ ὁ τοῦ Μανασσῆ ἐπορεύθη, καὶ ἔλαβε τὰς ἐπαύλεις αὐτῶν, καὶ ἐπωνόμασεν αὐτὰς ἐπαύλεις Ἰαΐρ.
42Nobah went and took Kenath and its villages, and called it Nobah, after his own name.
42Καὶ Ναβαὺ ἐπορεύθη, καὶ ἔλαβε τὴν Καὰθ καὶ τὰς κώμας αὐτῆς, καὶ ἐπωνόμασεν αὐτὰς Ναβὼθ ἐκ τοῦ ὀνόματος αὐτοῦ.
