Numbers 21

And Arad the Chananitish king who dwelt by the wilderness, heard that Israel came by the way of Atharin; and he made war on Israel, and carried off some of them captives.

Καὶ ἤκουσεν ὁ Χανανεὶς βασιλεὺς Ἀρὰδ ὁ κατοικῶν κατὰ τὴν ἔρημον, ὅτι ἦλθεν Ἰσραὴλ ὁδὸν Ἀθαρεὶν, καὶ ἐπολέμησε πρὸς Ἰσραὴλ, καὶ κατεπροενόμευσεν ἐξ αὐτῶν αἰχμαλωσίαν.

And Israel vowed a vow to the Lord, and said, If thou wilt deliver this people into my power, I will devote it and its cities to thee.

Καὶ ηὔξατο Ἰσραὴλ εὐχὴν Κυρίῳ, καὶ εἶπεν, ἐάν μοι παραδῷς τὸν λαὸν τοῦτον ὑποχείριον, ἀναθεματιῶ αὐτὸν καὶ τὰς πόλεις αὐτοῦ.

And the Lord hearkened to the voice of Israel, and delivered the Chananite into his power; and Israel devoted him and his cities, and they called the name of that place Anathema.

Καὶ 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.

And having departed from mount Or by the way leading to the Red Sea, they compassed the land of Edom, and the people lost courage by the way.

Καὶ ἀπάραντες ἐξ Ὢρ τοῦ ὄρους ὁδὸν ἐπὶ θάλασσαν ἐρυθρᾶν, περιεκύκλωσαν γῆν Ἐδώμ· καὶ ὠλιγοψύχησεν ὁ λαὸς ἐν τῇ ὁδῷ.

And the people spoke against God and against Moses, saying, Why is this? Hast thou brought us ought of Egypt to slay us in the wilderness? for there is not bread nor water; and our soul loathes this light bread.

Καὶ 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.

And the Lord sent among the people deadly serpents, and they bit the people, and much people of the children of Israel died.

Καὶ ἀπέστειλε Κύριος εἰς τὸν λαὸν τοὺς ὄφεις τοὺς θανατοῦντας, καὶ ἔδακνον τὸν λαόν, καὶ ἀπέθανε λαὸς πολὺς τῶν υἱῶν Ἰσραήλ.

And the people came to Moses and said, We have sinned, for we have spoken against the Lord, and against thee: pray therefore to the Lord, and let him take away the serpent from us.

Καὶ παραγενόμενος ὁ λαὸς πρὸς Μωυσῆν, ἔλεγον, ὅτι ἡμάρτομεν, ὅτι κατελαλήσαμεν κατὰ τοῦ Κυρίου, καὶ κατὰ σοῦ· εὔξαι οὖν πρὸς Κύριον, καὶ ἀφελέτω ἀφʼ ἡμῶν τὸν ὄφιν.

And Moses prayed to the Lord for the people; and the Lord said to Moses, Make thee a serpent, and put it on a signal-staff; and it shall come to pass that whenever a serpent shall bite a man, every one so bitten that looks upon it shall live.

Καὶ ηὔξατο Μωυσῆς πρὸς Κύριον περὶ τοῦ λαοῦ· καὶ εἰπε Κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν, ποίησον σεαυτῷ ὄφιν, καὶ θὲς αὐτὸν ἐπὶ σημείου, καὶ ἔσται ἐὰν δάκῃ ὄφις ἄνθρωπον, πᾶς ὁ δεδηγμένος ἰδὼν αὐτὸν ζήσεται.

And Moses made a serpent of brass, and put it upon a signal-staff: and it came to pass that whenever a serpent bit a man, and he looked on the brazen serpent, he lived.

Καὶ ἐποίησε Μωυσῆς ὄφιν χαλκοῦν, καὶ ἔστησεν αὐτὸν ἐπὶ σημείου· καὶ ἐγένετο ὅταν ἔδακνεν ὄφις ἄνθρωπον, καὶ ἐπέβλεψεν ἐπὶ τὸν ὄφιν τὸν χαλκοῦν, καὶ ἔζη.

And the children of Israel departed, and encamped in Oboth.

Καὶ ἀπῇραν οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰσραὴλ, καὶ παρενέβαλον ἐν Ὠβώθ.

And having departed from Oboth, they encamped in Achalgai, on the farther side in the wilderness, which is opposite Moab, toward the east.

Καὶ ἐξάραντες ἐξ Ὠβὼθ, καὶ παρενέβαλον ἐν Ἀχαλγαὶ ἐκ τοῦ πέραν ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ, ἥ ἐστι κατὰ πρόσωπον Μωὰβ, κατʼ ἀνατολὰς ἡλίου.

And thence they departed, and encamped in the valley of Zared.

Καὶ ἐκεῖθεν ἀπῇραν, καὶ παρενέβαλον εἰς φάραγγα Ζαρέδ.

And they departed thence and encamped on the other side of Arnon in the wilderness, the country which extends from the coasts of the Amorites; for Arnon is the borders of Moab, between Moab and the Amorites.

Καὶ ἐκεῖθεν ἀπάραντες παρενέβαλον εἰς τὸ πέραν Ἀρνῶν ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ, τὸ ἐξέχον ἀπὸ τῶν ὁρίων τῶν Ἀμοῤῥαίων· ἔστι γὰρ Ἀρνῶν ὅρια Μωὰβ, ἀναμέσον Μωὰβ καὶ ἀναμέσον τοῦ Ἀμοῤῥαίου.

Therefore it is said in a book, A war of the Lord has set on fire Zoob, and the brooks of Arnon.

Διὰ τοῦτο λέγεται ἐν βιβλίῳ, πόλεμος τοῦ Κυρίου τὴν Ζωὸβ ἐφλόγισε, καὶ τοὺς χιμάῤῥους Ἀρνῶν.

And he has appointed brooks to cause Er to dwell there; and it lies near to the coasts of Moab.

Καὶ τοὺς χιμάῤῥους κατέστησε κατοικίσαι Ἤρ· καὶ πρόσκειται τοῖς ὁρίοις Μωάβ.

And thence they came to the well; this is the well of which the Lord said to Moses, Gather the people, and I will give them water to drink.

Καὶ ἐκεῖθεν τὸ φρέαρ· τοῦτο φρέαρ, ὃ εἶπε Κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν, συνάγαγε τὸν λαὸν, καὶ δώσω αὐτοῖς ὕδωρ πιεῖν.

Then Israel sang this song at the well, Begin to sing of the well;

Τότε ᾖσεν Ἰσραὴλ τὸ ἆσμα τοῦτο ἐπὶ τοῦ φρέατος, ἐξάρχετε αὐτῷ φρέαρ,

the princes digged it, the kings of the nations in their kingdom, in their lordship sank it in the rock: and they went from the well to Manthanain,

ὤρυξαν αὐτὸ ἄρχοντες, ἐξελατόμησαν αὐτὸ βασιλεῖς ἐθνῶν ἐν τῇ βασιλείᾳ αὐτῶν, ἐν τῷ κυριεῦσαι αὐτῶν·

and from Manthanain to Naaliel, and from Naaliel to Bamoth, and from Bamoth to Janen, which is in the plain of Moab as seen from the top of the quarried rock that looks toward the wilderness.

καὶ ἀπὸ φρέατος εἰς Μανθαναεὶν, καὶ ἀπὸ Μανθαναεὶν εἰς Νααλιὴλ, καὶ ἀπὸ Νααλιὴλ εἰς Βαμὼθ, καὶ ἀπὸ Βαμὼθ εἰς Ἰανὴν, ἥ ἐστιν ἐν τῷ πεδίῳ Μωὰβ, ἀπὸ κορυφῆς τοῦ λελαξευμένου, τὸ βλέπον κατὰ πρόσωπον τῆς ἐρήμου.

And Moses sent ambassadors to Seon king of the Amorites, with peaceable words, saying,

Καὶ ἀπέστειλε Μωυσῆς πρέαβεις πρὸς Σηὼν βασιλέα Ἀμοῤῥαίων, λόγοις εἰρηνικοῖς, λέγων,

We will pass through thy land, we will go by the road; we will not turn aside to the field or to the vineyard.

παρελευσόμεθα διὰ τῆς γῆς σου, τῇ ὁδῷ πορευσόμεθα· οὐκ ἐκκλινοῦμεν οὔτε εἰς ἀγρὸν, οὔτε εἰς ἀμπελῶνα·

We will not drink water out of thy well; we will go by the king's highway, until we have past thy boundaries.

Οὐ πιόμεθα ὕδωρ ἐκ φρέατός σου· ὁδῷ βασιλικῇ παρευσόμεθα, ἕως παρέλθωμεν τὰ ὅριά σου.

And Seon did not allow Israel to pass through his borders, and Seon gathered all his people, and went out to set the battle in array against Israel into the wilderness; and he came to Jassa, and set the battle in array against Israel.

Καὶ 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.

And Israel smote him with the slaughter of the sword, and they became possessors of his land, from Arnon to Jaboc, as far as the children of Amman, for Jazer is the borders of the children of Amman.

Καὶ ἐπάταξεν αὐτὸν Ἰσραὴλ φόνῳ μαχαίρης, καὶ κατεκυρίευσαν τῆς γῆς αὐτοῦ, ἀπὸ Ἀρνῶν ἕως Ἰαβὸκ, ἕως υἱῶν Ἀμμὰν, ὅτι Ἰαζὴρ ὅρια υἱῶν Ἀμμάν ἐστι.

And Israel took all their cities, and Israel dwelt in all the cities of the Amorites, in Esebon, and in all cities belonging to it.

Καὶ ἔλαβεν Ἰσραὴλ πάσας τὰς πόλεις ταύτας, καὶ κατῷκησεν Ἰσραὴλ ἐν πάσαις ταῖς πόλεσι τῶν Ἀμοῤῥαίων, ἐν Ἑσεβὼν, καὶ ἐν πάσαις ταῖς συγκυρούσαις αὐτῇ.

For Esebon is the city of Seon king of the Amorites; and he before fought against the king of Moab, and they took all his land, from Aroer to Arnon.

Ἔστι γὰρ Ἐσεβὼν, πόλις Σηὼν τοῦ βασιλέως τῶν Ἀμοῤῥαίων ἐστίν· καὶ οὗτος ἐπολέμησε βασιλέα Μωὰβ τὸ πρότερον· καὶ ἔλαβον πᾶσαν τὴν γῆν αὐτοῦ, ἀπὸ Ἀροὴρ ἕως Ἀρνῶν.

Therefore say they who deal in dark speeches, Come to Esebon, that the city of Seon may be built and prepared.

Διὰ τοῦτο ἐροῦσιν οἱ αἰνιγματισταὶ, ἔλθετε εἰς Ἐσεβὼν, ἵνα οἰκοδομηθῇ καὶ κατασκευασθῇ πόλις Σηών·

For a fire has gone forth from Esebon, a flame from the city of Seon, and has consumed as far as Moab, and devoured the pillars of Arnon.

ὅτι πῦρ ἐξῆλθεν ἐξ Ἑσεβὼν, φλὸξ ἐκ πόλεως Σηὼν, καὶ κατέφαγεν ἕως Μωὰβ, καὶ κατέπιε στήλας Ἀρνῶν.

Woe to thee, Moab; thou art lost, thou people of Chamos: their sons are sold for preservation, and their daughters are captives to Seon king of the Amorites.

Οὐαί σοι Μωὰβ, ἀπώλου λαὸς Χαμώς· ἀπεδόθησαν οἱ υἱοὶ αὐτῶν διασώζεσθαι, καὶ αἱ θυγατέρες αὐτῶν αἰχμάλωτοι τῷ βασιλεῖ τῶν Ἀμοῤῥαίων Σηὼν,

And their seed shall perish from Esebon to Dæbon; and their women have yet farther kindled a fire against Moab.

καὶ τὸ σπέρμα αὐτῶν ἀπολεῖται, Ἑσεβὼν ἕως Δαιβών· καὶ αἱ γυναῖκες ἔτι προσεξέκαυσαν πῦρ ἐπὶ Μωάβ.

And Israel dwelt in all the cities of the Amorites.

Κατῴκησε δὲ Ἰσραὴλ ἐν πάσαις ταῖς πόλεσι τῶν Ἀμοῤῥαίων.

And Moses sent to spy out Jazer; and they took it, and its villages, and cast out the Amorite that dwelt there.

Καὶ ἀπέστειλε Μωυσῆς κατασκέψασθαι τὴν Ἰαζήρ· καὶ κατελάβοντο αὐτὴν, καὶ τὰς κώμας αὐτῆς, καὶ ἐξέβαλον τὸν Ἀμοῤῥαῖον τὸν κατοικοῦντα ἐκεῖ.

And having returned, they went up the road that leads to Basan; and Og the king of Basan went forth to meet them, and all his people to war to Edrain.

Καὶ ἐπιστρέψαντες, ἀνέβησαν ὁδὸν τὴν εἰς Βασάν· καὶ ἐξῆλθεν Ὢγ βασιλεὺς τῆς Βασὰν εἰς συνάντησιν αὐτοῖς, καὶ πᾶς ὁ λαὸς αὐτοῦ εἰς πόλεμον εἰς Ἐδραείν.

And the Lord said to Moses, Fear him not; for I have delivered him and all his people, and all his land, into thy hands; and thou shalt do to him as thou didst to Seon king of the Amorites, who dwelt in Esebon.

Καὶ εἶπε Κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν, μὴ φοβηθῇς αὐτὸν, 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 Ἀμοῤῥαίων, ὃς κατῴκει ἐν Ἑσεβών.

And he smote him and his sons, and all his people, until he left none of his to be taken alive; and they inherited his land.

Καὶ ἐπάταξεν αὐτὸν καὶ τοὺς υἱοὺς αὐτοῦ, καὶ πάντα τὸν λαὸν αὐτοῦ, ἕως τοῦ μὴ καταλιπεῖν αὐτοῦ ζωγρείαν· καὶ ἐκληρονόμησαν τὴν γῆν αὐτον.
