< Numbers 32 >

1 Now the sons of Ruben and of Gad had many herds, and their substance in cattle was inestimable. And when they had seen that the lands of Jazer and Gilead were suitable for feeding animals,
HE nui loa na holoholona a na mamo a Reubena, a me na mamo a Gada: a i ka manawa i ike ai lakou i ka aina o Iazera a me ka aina o Gileada, aia hoi, he wahi pono ia no na holoholona;
2 they went to Moses, and to Eleazar the priest and the leaders of the multitude, and they said:
Hele mai la na mamo a Gada a me na mamo a Reubena, a olelo mai la ia Mose, a ia Eleazara ke kahuna, a i na luna o ke anainakanaka, i mai la,
3 “Ataroth, and Dibon, and Jazer, and Nimrah, Heshbon, and Elealeh, and Sebam, and Nebo, and Beon,
O Atarota, o Dibona, o Iazera, o Nimera, o Hesebona, o Eleale, o Sebama, o Nebo, a o Beona,
4 the land, which the Lord has struck in the sight of the sons of Israel, is a very fertile region for pasturing animals. And we, your servants, have very many cattle.
O ka aina a Iehova i luku ai imua o ke anainakanaka o ka Iseraela, he aina ia no na holoholona; a he holoholona ia makou o kau poe kauwa.
5 And so we beseech you, if we have found favor before you, that you give it to us, your subjects, as a possession, and that you not cause us cross the Jordan.”
I mai la lakou, No keia mea, a i loaa ia makou ke aloha imua o kou maka, e ae mai oe e haawiia mai keia aina i wahi e noho ai no kau mau kauwa, aole no e kai aku ia makou ma kela aoao o Ioredane.
6 And Moses answered them: “Should your brothers go to battle, while you sit here?
Ninau aku la o Mose i na mamo a Gada, a i na mamo a Reubena, E hele no anei ko oukou poe hoahanau i ke kaua, a e noho no oukou manei?
7 Why do you subvert the minds of the sons of Israel, so that they might not dare to cross into the place which the Lord will give to them?
No ke aha la hoi e hoonawaliwali ai oukou i na naau o na mamo a Iseraela, i hele ole ai lakou i ka aina a Iehova i haawi mai ai no lakou?
8 Did not your fathers act in the same way, when I sent them from Kadesh-Barnea to explore the land?
Pela no i hana'i ko oukou poe makua, ia'u i hoouna aku ai ia lakou mai Kadesabanea aku e makaikai i ka aina.
9 And when they had gone all the way to the Valley of the Cluster of Grapes, having viewed the entire region, they subverted the hearts of the sons of Israel, so that they would not enter into the parts that the Lord gave to them.
No ka mea, i ka manawa i pii aku ai lakou ma ke awawa o Esekola, a ike aku la i ka aina, hoonawaliwali lakou i ka naau o na mamo a Iseraela, i hele ole aku ai lakou i ka aina a Iehova i haawi mai ai no lakou.
10 And being angry, the Lord swore an oath, saying:
A ua hoaia ka inaina o Iehova ia la, a hoohiki iho la ia, i ka i ana mai,
11 ‘These men, who ascended out of Egypt, from twenty years and above, will not see the land, which I have promised under an oath to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. For they were not willing to follow me,
He oiaio, aole kekahi o na kanaka i hele mai nei mai Aigupita mai, na mea o na makahiki he iwakalua a keu aku, e ike aku i ka aina a'u i hoohiki ai no Aberahama, no Isaaka a no Iakoba; no ka mea, aole lakou i hahai pono mamuli o'u:
12 except Caleb, the son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite, and Joshua the son of Nun; these have fulfilled my will.’
O Kaleba wale no o ke keiki a Iepune ka Kenezi, laua o Iosua ke keiki a Nuna: no ka mea, ua hahai pono no laua ia Iehova.
13 And the Lord, being angry against Israel, led them in a course through the desert for forty years, until the entire generation, which had done evil in his sight, was consumed.
A hoaia ka inaina o Iehova i ka Iseraela, a hoauwana ae la oia ia lakou ma ka waonahele i na makahiki he kanaha, a pau loa ae la ka hanauna a pau i hana hewa imua o Iehova.
14 And behold,” he said, “you have risen up in the place of your fathers, the offshoots and the nurslings of sinful men, in order to augment the fury of the Lord against Israel.
Aia hoi, ua ku ae nei oukou i pani no ka hakahaka o ko oukou poe makua, he hanauna kanaka hewa, e hoomahuahua aku i ka inaina nui o Iehova i ka Iseraela.
15 But if you are not willing to follow him, he will leave the people behind in the wilderness, and you will have been the cause of all our deaths.”
No ka mea, a i huli aku oukou maimuli ona aku, e haalele hou mai auanei oia ia lakou iloko o ka waonahele, a e make keia poe kanaka a pau ia oukou.
16 But approaching closer, they said: “We will manufacture sheep pens and cattle stalls, as well as fortified cities, for our little ones.
Hele mai lakou a kokoke io na la, i mai la, E hana no makou i na pahipa no ko makou holoholona, a me na kulanakauhale no na keiki a makou:
17 But we ourselves will continue on, armed and girded for battle, before the sons of Israel, until we lead them to their places. Our little ones, and whatever we may be able to have, shall be in walled cities, because of the treachery of the inhabitants.
Aka, e hele makaukau no makou i ke kaua imua o na mamo a Iseraela a alakai makou ia lakou i ko lakou wahi: a e noho na keiki a makou i na kulanakauhale i paa i ka pa, no na kanaka o ka aina.
18 We will not return to our houses, even until the sons of Israel may possess their inheritance.
Aole no makou e hoi hou i na hale o makou, a loaa i kela kanaka i keia kanaka o na mamo a Iseraela kona ainahooili.
19 Neither will we seek anything across the Jordan, because we already have our possession on its eastern side.”
No ka mea, aole makou e ai aina me lakou ma kela aoao o Ioredane; a ma o aku; no ka mea, ua loaa ia makou ko makou ainahooili ma keia aoao o Ioredane ma ka hikina.
20 And Moses said to them: “If you accomplish what you have promised, you may go out, equipped for battle, before the Lord.
I aku la o Mose ia lakou, Ina paha oukou e hana ia mea, a e hele me ka makaukau i ke kaua imua o Iehova,
21 And let every fighting man cross over the Jordan, until the Lord overthrows his enemies,
A e hele oukou a pau me ka makaukau ma kela aoao o Ioredane imua o Iehova, a pau kona poe enemi i ka hookukeia'ku e ia mai kona alo aku,
22 and all the land is subjected to him. Then you will be guiltless with the Lord and with Israel, and you will obtain the regions which you desire before the Lord.
A pio ka aina imua o Iehova; a mahope iho e hoi hou auanei oukou, me ka hala ole imua o Iehova, imua hoi o ka Iseraela: a e lilo keia aina no oukou imua o Iehova.
23 But if you do not do what you have said, no one could doubt that you will have sinned against God. And know this: your sin shall overtake you.
Aka, i hana ole oukou pela, aia hoi, ua hana hewa aku oukou ia Iehova; a e ike pono oukou e pili auanei ko oukou hewa ia oukou iho.
24 Therefore, build cities for your little ones, and pens and stables for your sheep and cattle; and fulfill what you have promised.”
E hana oukou i na kulanakauhale no na keiki a oukou, a me na pa no na hipa a oukou; a e hana oukou i ka mea a ko oukou waha i olelo mai ai.
25 And the sons of Gad and of Ruben said to Moses: “We are your servants, we shall do what you, our ruler, orders.
Olelo mai la na mamo a Gada, a me na mamo a Reubena, i mai la, E hana no na kauwa au e like me kuu haku i olelo mai nei.
26 We will leave behind our little ones, and our wives, and the sheep and cattle, in the cities of Gilead.
O ka makou poe kamalii, o na wahine a makou, o ko makou holoholona uuku, a me ko makou holoholona nui a pan, e waihoia ilaila maloko o na kulanakauhale o Gileada:
27 And we, your servants, all well-equipped, will go forth to battle, just as you, our ruler, has spoken.”
Aka, a kau poe kauwa, o kela mea keia mea e hele makaukau imua o Iehova i ke kaua, e like me ka olelo ana mai a kuu haku.
28 Therefore, Moses instructed Eleazar the priest, and Joshua the son of Nun, and the princes of the families throughout the tribes of Israel, and he said to them:
A kauoha aku la o Mose no lakou ia Eleazara ke kahuna, a me Iosua ke keiki a Nuna, a me na lunakahiko o na ohana mamo a Iseraela:
29 “If the sons of Gad and the sons of Ruben cross over the Jordan with you, all armed for war before the Lord, and if the land becomes subject to you, give them Gilead as a possession.
I aku la o Mose ia lakou, Ina e hele pu aku me oukou na mamo a Gada, a me na mamo a Reubena ma kela aoao o Ioredane, o kela kanaka o keia kanaka me ka makaukau i ke kaua imua o Iehova, a e hoopioia ka aina imua o oukou; alaila e haawi oukou i ka aina o Gileada i kuleana no lakou:
30 But if they are not willing to cross with you, armed, into the land of Canaan, then let them receive places among you for their dwellings.”
A i ole lakou e hele makaukau aku me oukou ma kela aoao, alaila e loaa ia lakou ko lakou kuleana iwaena o oukou ma ka aina o Kanaana.
31 And the sons of Gad and the sons of Ruben responded: “Just as the Lord has spoken to his servants, so shall we do.
Olelo mai la na mamo a Gada a me na mamo a Reubena, i mai la, E like me ka Iehova i olelo mai ai i kau poe kauwa, pela no makou e hana aku ai.
32 We will go forth, armed, before the Lord into the land of Canaan; and we acknowledge that we have already received our possession across the Jordan.”
E hele makaukau aku no makou imua o Iehova iloko o ka aina o Kanaana, i lilo ai no makou ka aina o ko makou kuleana ma keia aoao o Ioredane.
33 And so, Moses gave to the sons of Gad and of Ruben, and to half the tribe of Manasseh, the son of Joseph, the kingdom of Sihon, king of the Amorites, and the kingdom of Og, king of Bashan, and their land with its surrounding cities.
A haawi aku la o Mose no lakou, no na mamo a Gada a me na mamo a Reubena, a me ka ohana hapa a Manase a ke keiki a Iosepa, i ke aupuni o Sihona ke alii o ka Amora, a me ke aupuni o Oga ke alii o Basana, i ka aina me na kulanakauhale ona, ma ua palena, na kulanakauhale o ia aina a puni.
34 Therefore, the sons of Gad built up Dibon, and Ataroth, and Aroer,
A kukulu aku la na mamo a Gada ia Dibona, me Atarota, me Aroera,
35 and Atroth and Shophan, and Jazer, and Jogbehah,
Me Aterota, me Sopana, me Iazera, a me Iogebeha,
36 and Beth-Nimrah, and Beth-Haran, as fortified cities with pens for their cattle.
Me Betenimera a me Beteharana, na kulanakauhale i puni i ka pa, a me na pahipa.
37 Yet truly, the sons of Ruben built up Heshbon, and Elealeh, and Kiriathaim,
A kukulu aku la na mamo a Reubena ia Hesebona, me Eleale, a me Kiriataima,
38 and Nebo, and Baal-meon (their names having been changed) and Sibmah, appointing names for the cities which they had built.
A me Nebo, me Baalameona, (ua hoololiia ko lakou mau inoa, ) a me Sibema: a mamuli o ua inoa, kapa aku lakou i na inoa o na kulanakauhale a lakou i kukulu ai.
39 Moreover, the sons of Machir, the son of Manasseh, continued on within Gilead, and they devastated it, putting to death its inhabitant, the Amorite.
A hele aku la na keiki a Makira ke keiki a Manase i Gileada, a lawe pio iho la ia wahi, a hookuke aku la i ka Amora e noho ana iloko olaila.
40 Therefore, Moses gave the land of Gilead to Machir, the son of Manasseh, and he lived in it.
A haawi aku la o Mose ia Gileada ia Makira ke keiki a Manase, a noho iho la ia ilaila.
41 But Jair, the son of Manasseh, went out and occupied its villages, which he called Havoth Jair, that is, the Villages of Jair.
Hele aku la hoi o Iaira ke keiki a Manase, a lawe pio aku la i na kauhale o ia wahi, a kapa aku la i ko lakou inoa, o Havota-iaira.
42 Likewise, Nobah went forth and captured Kenath with its villages. And he called it by his own name, Nobah.
A hele aku la o Noba a lawe pio aku la ia Kenata, a me na kauhale ona, a kapa aku ia wahi, o Noba, mamuli o kona inoa iho.
