Numbers 21
Swete's Septuagint · Berean Standard Bible
Καὶ ἤκουσεν ὁ Χανανείς, βασιλεὺς Ἀράδ, ὁ κατοικῶν κατὰ τὴν ἔρημον· ἦλθεν γὰρ Ἰσραὴλ ὁδὸν Ἀθαρείν· καὶ ἐπολέμησεν πρὸς Ἰσραήλ, καὶ κατεπρονόμευσαν ἐξ αὐτῶν αἰχμαλωσίαν.
When the Canaanite king of Arad, who lived in the Negev, heard that Israel was coming along the road to Atharim, he attacked Israel and captured some prisoners.
καὶ ηὔξατο Ἰσραὴλ εὐχὴν Τυρίῳ καὶ εἶπεν Ἐάν μοι παραδῷς τὸν λαὸν τοῦτον ὑποχείριον, ριον, ἀναθεματιῶ αὐτὸν καὶ τὰς πόλεις αὐτοῦ.
So Israel made a vow to the LORD: “If You will deliver this people into our hands, we will devote their cities to destruction.”
καὶ εἰσἠκουσεν κύριος τῆς φωνῆς Ἰσραὴλ καὶ παρέδωκεν τὸν χανανεὶ αὐτοῦ· καὶ ἀνεθεμάτισεν αὐτὸν καὶ τὰς πόλεις αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐπ’ τὸ ὄνομα τοῦ τόπου ἐκείνου Ἀνάθεμα.
And the LORD heard Israel’s plea and delivered up the Canaanites. Israel devoted them and their cities to destruction; so they named the place Hormah (note: Hormah means destruction.).
Καὶ ἀπάραντες ἐξ Ὣρ τοῦ ὄρους ὁδὸν ἐπὶ θάλασσαν ἐρυθρὰν περιεκύκλωσαν γῆν Ἐδώμ· καὶ ὠλιγοψύχησεν ὁ λαὸς ἐν τῇ ὁδῷ.
Then they set out from Mount Hor along the route to the Red Sea (note: Or the Sea of Reeds), in order to bypass the land of Edom. But the people grew impatient on the journey
καὶ κατελάλει ὁ λαὸς πρὸς τὸν θεὸν καὶ κατὰ Μωυσῆ λέγοντες Ἵνα τί 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.
and spoke against God and against Moses: “Why have you led us up out of Egypt to die in the wilderness? There is no bread or water, and we detest this wretched food!”
καὶ ἀπέστειλεν κύριος εἰς τὸν λαὸν τοὺς ὄφεις τοὺς θανατοῦντας, καὶ ἔδακνον τὸν λαόν· καὶ ἀπέθανεν λαὸς πολὺς τῶν υἱῶν Ἰσραήλ.
So the LORD sent venomous snakes among the people, and many of the Israelites were bitten and died.
καὶ 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 Μωυσῆς πρὸς κύριον περὶ τοῦ λαοῦ.
Then the people came to Moses and said, “We have sinned by speaking against the LORD and against you. Intercede with the LORD so He will take the snakes away from us.” So Moses interceded for the people.
καὶ εἶπεν κύριος πρὸς Ποίησον σεαυτῷ ὄφιν, καὶ θὲς αὐτὸν ἐπὶ σημείου· καὶ ἔσται ὄφις ἄνθρωπον, πᾶς ὁ δεδηγμένος ἰδὼν αὐτὸν ζήσεται.
Then the LORD said to Moses, “Make a fiery serpent and mount it on a pole. When anyone who is bitten looks at it, he will live.”
καὶ ἐποίησεν Μωυσῆς ὄφιν χαλκοῦν, καὶ ἔστησεν αὐτὸν ἐπὶ σημείου· καὶ ἐγένετο ὅταν ἔδακνεν ὄφις ἄνθρωπον, καὶ ἐπέβλεψεν ἐπὶ τὸν ὄφιν τὸν χαλκοῦν, καὶ
So Moses made a bronze snake and mounted it on a pole. If anyone who was bitten looked at the bronze snake, he would live.
καὶ ἀπῆραν οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰσραήλ, καὶ παρενέβαλον ἐν Ὠβώθ.
Then the Israelites set out and camped at Oboth.
καὶ ἐξάραντες ἐξ Ὠβώθ, καὶ παρενέβαλον ἐν χαλγαεὶ ἐκ τοῦ πέραν, ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ ἥ ἐστιν κατὰ πρόσωπον Μωὰβ κατὰ ἀνατολὰς ἡλίου.
They journeyed from Oboth and camped at Iye-abarim in the wilderness opposite Moab to the east.
ἐκεῖθεν ἀπῆραν, καὶ παρενέβαλον εἰς φάραγγα Ζάρετ.
From there they set out and camped in the Valley of Zered.
ἐκεῖθεν ἀπάραντες παρενέβαλον εἰς τὸ πέραν ’ ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ, τὸ ἐξέχον ἀπὸ τῶν ὁρίων τῶν Ἀμορραίων· ἔστιν γὰρ Ἀρνῶν ὅρια Μωὰβ ἀνὰ μέσον Μωὰβ καὶ ἀνὰ μέσον τοῦ Ἀμορραίου.
From there they moved on and camped on the other side of the Arnon, in the wilderness that extends into the Amorite territory. Now the Arnon is the border between the Moabites and the Amorites.
διὰ τοῦτο λέγεται ἐν βιβλίῳ Πόλεμος τοῦ κυρίου τὴν Ζωὸβ ἐφλόγισεν καὶ τοὺς χειμάρρους Ἀρνών·
Therefore it is stated in the Book of the Wars of the LORD: “Waheb in Suphah and the wadis of the Arnon,
καὶ τοὺς χειμάρρους κατέστησεν κατοικίσαι Ἤρ, καὶ πρόσκειται τοῖ, ὁρίοις Μωὰβ.
even the slopes of the wadis that extend to the site of Ar and lie along the border of Moab.”
καὶ ἐκεῖθεν τὸ φρέαρ· τοῦτο φρέαρ ὃ εἶπεν Κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν Συνάγαγε τὸν λαόν, καὶ δώσω αὐτοῖς ὕδωρ πιεῖν.
From there they went on to Beer, the well where the LORD said to Moses, “Gather the people so that I may give them water.”
τότε ᾖσεν Ἰσραὴλ τὸ ᾆσμα τοῦτο ἐπὶ τοῦ φρέατος Ἐξάρχετε αὐτῷ·
Then Israel sang this song: “Spring up, O well, all of you sing to it!
φρέαρ, ὤρυξαν αὐτὸ ἄρχοντες, ἐξελατόμησαν αὐτὸ βασιλεῖς ἐθνῶν. ἐν τῇ βασιλείᾳ αὐτῶν, ἐν τῷ κυριεῦσαι αὐτῶν. καὶ ἀπὸ φρέατος εἰς Μανθαναείν·
The princes dug the well; the nobles of the people hollowed it out with their scepters and with their staffs.” From the wilderness the Israelites went on to Mattanah,
καὶ ἀπὸ μανθαναεὶν εἰς μαναήλ· καὶ ἀπὸ μαναὴλ εἰς Βαμώθ.
and from Mattanah to Nahaliel, and from Nahaliel to Bamoth,
καὶ ἀπὸ Βαμὼθ εἰς Ἰανήν, ἥ ἐστιν ἐν τῷ πεδίῳ Μωὰβ ἀπὸ κορυφῆς τοῦ λελαξευμένου, τὸ βλέπον κατὰ πρόσωπον τῆς ἐρήμου.
and from Bamoth to the valley in Moab where the top of Pisgah overlooks the wasteland (note: Or Jeshimon).
καὶ ἀπέστειλεν Μωυσῆς πρέσβεις πρὸς Σηὼν βασιλέα Ἀμορεἰρηνικοῖς ραίων λόγοις εἰρηνικοῖς λέγων
Then Israel sent messengers to Sihon king of the Amorites, saying,
Παρελευσόμεθα διὰ τῆς γῆς σου· τῇ ὁδῷ πορευσόμεθα, οὐκ ἐκκλινοῦμεν οὔτε εἰς ἀγρὸν οὔτε εἰς ἀμπελῶνα, οὐ πιόμεθα ὕδωρ ἐκ φρέατός σου· ὁδῷ βασιλικῇ πορευσόμεθα ἕως παρέλθωμεν τὰ ὅριά σου.
“Let us pass through your land. We will not turn aside into any field or vineyard, or drink water from any well. We will stay on the King’s Highway until we have passed through your territory.”
καὶ οὐκ ἔδωκεν Σηὼν τῷ Ἰσραὴλ παρελθεῖν διὰ τῶν ὁρίων αὐτοῦ· καὶ συνήγαγεν Σηὼν πάντα τὸν λαὸν αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐξῆλθεν παρατάξασθαι Ἰσραὴλ εἰς τὴν ἔρημον· καὶ ἦλθεν εἰς Εἴσσα, καὶ παρετάξατο τῷ Ἰσραήλ.
But Sihon would not let Israel pass through his territory. Instead, he gathered his whole army and went out to confront Israel in the wilderness. When he came to Jahaz (note: Jahaz is a variant of Jahzah; see 1 Chronicles 6:78.), he fought against Israel.
καὶ ἐπάταξεν αὐτὸν Ἰσραὴλ φόνῳ μαχαίρης, καὶ κατεκυρίευσαν τῆς γῆς αὐτοῦ ἀπὸ Ἀρνὼν ἕως Ἰαβόκ, ἔως υἱῶν Ἀμμάν· ὅτι Ἰαζὴρ ὅρια υἱῶν Ἀμμών ἐστιν.
And Israel put him to the sword and took possession of his land, from the Arnon to the Jabbok—but only up to the border of the Ammonites, because it was fortified (note: Or because the territory was rugged; literally because it was strong).
καὶ ἔλαβεν Ἰσραὴλ πάσας τἀς πόλεις ταύτας· καὶ κατῴκησεν Ἰσραὴλ ἐν πάσαις ταῖς πόλεσιν τῶν Ἀμορραίων, ἐν Ἑσεβὼν καὶ ἐν πάσαις ταῖς συνκυρούσαις αὐτῇ.
Israel captured all the cities of the Amorites and occupied them, including Heshbon and all its villages.
ἔστιν γὰρ Ἑσεβών, πόλις Σηὼν τοῦ βασιλέως τῶν Ἀμορραίων ἐστιν· καὶ οὗτος ἐπολέμησεν βασιλέα Μωὰβ τὸ πρότερον, καὶ ἔλαβον πᾶσαν τὴν γῆν αὐτοῦ ἀπὸ Ἀροὴρ ἕως Ἀρνῶν.
Heshbon was the city of Sihon king of the Amorites, who had fought against the former king of Moab and taken all his land as far as the Arnon.
δία τοῦτο ἐροῦσιν οἱ αἰνιγματισταί Ἔλθετε εἰς Ἑσεβών, ἵνα οἰκοδομηθῇ καὶ κατασκευασθῇ πόλις Σηών.
That is why the poets say: “Come to Heshbon, let it be rebuilt; let the city of Sihon be restored.
ὅτι πῦρ ἐξῆλθεν ἐξ Ἑσεβών, φλὸξ ἐκ πόλεως Σηών· καὶ κατέφαγεν ἕως Μωάβ,
For a fire went out from Heshbon, a blaze from the city of Sihon. It consumed Ar of Moab, the rulers of Arnon’s heights.
Οὐαί σοι, Μωάβ· ἀπώλου, λαὸς Χαμώς. ἀπεδόθησαν οἱ υἱοὶ αὐτῶν διασώζεσθαι, καὶ αἱ θυγατέρες αὐτῶν αἰχμάλωτοι, τῷ βασιλεῖ τῶν Ἀμορραίων Σηών.
Woe to you, O Moab! You are destroyed, O people of Chemosh! He gave up his sons as refugees, and his daughters into captivity to Sihon king of the Amorites.
καὶ τὸ σπέρμα αὐτῶν ἀπολεῖται, Ἑσεβὼν ἕως Δαιβών, καὶ αἱ γυναῖκες ἔτι προσεξέκαυσαν πῦρ ἐπὶ Μωάβ.
But we have overthrown them; Heshbon is destroyed as far as Dibon. We demolished them as far as Nophah, which reaches to Medeba (note: Or We demolished them until fire spread to Medeba).”
κατῴκησεν δὲ Ἰσραὴλ ἐν πάσαις ταῖς πόλεσιν τῶν Ἀμορραίων.
So Israel lived in the land of the Amorites.
καὶ ἀπέστειλεν Μωυσῆς κατασκέψασθαι τὴν Ἰαζήρ, καὶ κατελάβοντο αὐτὴν καὶ τὰς κώμας αὐτῆς, καὶ ἐξέβαλον τὸν Ἀμορραῖον τὸν κατοικοῦντα κοῦντα ἐκεῖ.
After Moses had sent spies to Jazer, Israel captured its villages and drove out the Amorites who were there.
καὶ ἐπιστρέψαντες ἀνέβησαν ὁδὸν τὴν εἰς βασᾶν. καὶ ἐξῆλθεν Ὢγ βασιλεὺς τῆς βασᾶν εἰς συνάντησιν αὐτοῖς, καὶ πᾶς ὁ λαὸς αὐτοῦ εἰς πόλεμον εἰς Ἐδράειν.
Then they turned and went up the road to Bashan, and Og king of Bashan and his whole army came out to meet them in battle at Edrei.
καὶ εἶπεν Κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν Μὴ φοβηθῇς αὐτόν, ὅτι εἰς τὰς χεῖράς σου παραδέδωκα αὐτὸν καὶ πάντα τὸν λαὸν αὐτοῦ καὶ πᾶσαν τὴν γῆν αὐτοῦ. κα ποιήσεις αὐτῷ καθὼς ἐποίησας τῷ Σηὼν βασιλεῖ τῶν Ἀμορραίων, ὃς κατῴκει ἐν Ἑσεβών. καὶ ἐπάταξεν αὐτὸν καὶ τοὺς υἱοὺς αὐτοῦ καὶ πάντα τὸν λαὸν αὐτοῦ, ἕως τοῦ μὴ καταλιπεῖν αὐτοῦ ζωγρείαν· καὶ ἐκληρονόμησαν τὴν γῆν αὐτῶν.
But the LORD said to Moses, “Do not fear him, for I have delivered him into your hand, along with all his people and his land. Do to him as you did to Sihon king of the Amorites, who lived in Heshbon.”
