Numbers 21
1 And 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.
Quod cum audisset Chananaeus rex Arad, qui habitabat ad meridiem, venisse scilicet Israel per exploratorum viam, pugnavit contra illum, et victor existens, duxit ex eo praedam.
2 And 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.'
At Israel voto se Domino obligans, ait: Si tradideris populum istum in manu mea, delebo urbes eius.
3 And 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.
Exaudivitque Dominus preces Israel, et tradidit Chananaeum, quem ille interfecit subversis urbibus eius: et vocavit nomen loci illius Horma, id est, anathema.
4 And 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.
Profecti sunt autem et de monte Hor, per viam, quae ducit ad Mare rubrum, ut circumirent terram Edom. Et taedere coepit populum itineris ac laboris:
5 And 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.'
locutusque contra Deum et Moysen, ait: Cur eduxisti nos de Aegypto, ut moreremur in solitudine? Deest panis, non sunt aquae: anima nostra iam nauseat super cibo isto levissimo.
6 And the LORD sent fiery serpents among the people, and they bit the people; and much people of Israel died.
Quamobrem misit Dominus in populum ignitos serpentes, ad quorum plagas et mortes plurimorum,
7 And 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.
venerunt ad Moysen, atque dixerunt: Peccavimus, quia locuti sumus contra Dominum et te: ora ut tollat a nobis serpentes. Oravitque Moyses pro populo,
8 And 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.'
et locutus est Dominus ad eum: Fac serpentem aeneum, et pone eum pro signo: qui percussus aspexerit eum, vivet.
9 And 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.
Fecit ergo Moyses SERPENTEM AeNEUM, et posuit eum pro signo: quem cum percussi aspicerent, sanabantur.
10 And the children of Israel journeyed, and pitched in Oboth.
Profectique filii Israel castrametati sunt in Oboth.
11 And they journeyed from Oboth, and pitched at Ije-abarim, in the wilderness which is in front of Moab, toward the sun-rising.
Unde egressi fixere tentoria in Ieabarim, in solitudine, quae respicit Moab contra orientalem plagam.
12 From thence they journeyed, and pitched in the valley of Zered.
Et inde moventes, venerunt ad Torrentem Zared.
13 From 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;
Quem relinquentes castrametati sunt contra Arnon, quae est in deserto, et prominet in finibus Amorrhaei. siquidem Arnon terminus est Moab, dividens Moabitas et Amorrhaeos.
14 wherefore it is said in the book of the Wars of the LORD: Vaheb in Suphah, and the valleys of Arnon,
Unde dicitur in libro bellorum Domini: Sicut fecit in Mari rubro, sic faciet in torrentibus Arnon.
15 And the slope of the valleys that inclineth toward the seat of Ar, and leaneth upon the border of Moab. —
Scopuli torrentium inclinati sunt, ut requiescerent in Arnon, et recumberent in finibus Moabitarum.
16 And from thence to Beer; that is the well whereof the LORD said unto Moses: 'Gather the people together, and I will give them water.'
Ex eo loco apparuit puteus, super quo locutus est Dominus ad Moysen: Congrega populum, et dabo ei aquam.
17 Then sang Israel this song: Spring up, O well — sing ye unto it —
Tunc cecinit Israel carmen istud: Ascendat puteus. Concinebant:
18 The 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;
Puteus, quem foderunt principes, et paraverunt duces multitudinis in datore legis, et in baculis suis. Profectique sunt de solitudine, Matthana.
19 and from Mattanah to Nahaliel; and from Nahaliel to Bamoth;
De Matthana in Nahaliel: de Nahaliel, in Bamoth.
20 and from Bamoth to the valley that is in the field of Moab, by the top of Pisgah, which looketh down upon the desert.
Bamoth, vallis est in regione Moab, in vertice Phasga, quod respicit contra desertum.
21 And Israel sent messengers unto Sihon king of the Amorites, saying:
Misit autem Israel nuncios ad Sehon regem Amorrhaeorum, dicens:
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.'
Obsecro ut transire mihi liceat per terram tuam: non declinabimus in agros et vineas, non bibemus aquas ex puteis, via regia gradiemur, donec transeamus terminos tuos.
23 And 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.
Qui concedere noluit ut transiret Israel per fines suos: quin potius exercitu congregato, egressus est obviam in desertum, et venit in Iasa, pugnavitque contra eum.
24 And 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.
A quo percussus est in ore gladii, et possessa est terra eius ab Arnon usque Ieboc, et filios Ammon: quia forti praesidio tenebantur termini Ammonitarum.
25 And Israel took all these cities; and Israel dwelt in all the cities of the Amorites, in Heshbon, and in all the towns thereof.
Tulit ergo Israel omnes civitates eius, et habitavit in urbibus Amorrhaei, in Hesebon scilicet, et viculis eius.
26 For 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.
Urbs Hesebon fuit Sehon regis Amorrhaei, qui pugnavit contra regem Moab: et tulit omnem terram, quae ditionis illius fuerat, usque Arnon.
27 Wherefore they that speak in parables say: Come ye to Heshbon! let the city of Sihon be built and established!
Idcirco dicitur in Proverbio: Venite in Hesebon, aedificetur, et construatur civitas Sehon:
28 For 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.
Ignis egressus est de Hesebon, flamma de oppido Sehon, et devoravit Ar Moabitarum, et habitatores excelsorum Arnon.
29 Woe 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.
Vae tibi Moab, peristi popule Chamos. Dedit filios eius in fugam, et filias in captivitatem regi Amorrhaeorum Sehon.
30 We have shot at them — Heshbon is perished — even unto Dibon, and we have laid waste even unto Nophah, which reacheth unto Medeba.
Iugum ipsorum disperiit ad Hesebon usque Dibon, lassi pervenerunt in Nophe, et usque Medaba.
31 Thus Israel dwelt in the land of the Amorites.
Habitavit itaque Israel in Terra Amorrhaei.
32 And Moses sent to spy out Jazer, and they took the towns thereof, and drove out the Amorites that were there.
Misitque Moyses qui explorarent Iazer: cuius ceperunt viculos, et possederunt habitatores.
33 And 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.
Verteruntque se, et ascenderunt per viam Basan, et occurrit eis Og rex Basan cum omni populo suo, pugnaturus in Edrai.
34 And 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.'
Dixitque Dominus ad Moysen: Ne timeas eum, quia in manu tua tradidi illum, et omnem populum, ac terram eius: faciesque illi sicut fecisti Sehon regi Amorrhaeorum habitatori Hesebon.
35 So they smote him, and his sons, and all his people, until there was none left him remaining; and they possessed his land.
Percusserunt igitur et hunc cum filiis suis, universumque populum eius usque ad internecionem, et possederunt terram illius.
