1E voltamos, e partimo-nos ao deserto caminho do mar Vermelho, como o SENHOR me havia dito; e rodeamos o monte de Seir por muitos dias. 2E o SENHOR me falou, dizendo: 3Demais rodeastes este monte; voltai-vos ao norte. 4E manda ao povo, dizendo: Passando vós pelo termo de vossos irmãos os filhos de Esaú, que habitam em Seir, eles terão medo de vós; mas vós guardai-vos muito: 5Não vos metais com eles; que não vos darei de sua terra nem ainda a pisadura da planta de um pé; porque eu dei por herança a Esaú o monte de Seir. 6Comprareis deles por dinheiro os alimentos, e comereis; e também comprareis deles a água, e bebereis: 7Pois o SENHOR teu Deus te abençoou em toda obra de tuas mãos: ele sabe que andas por este grande deserto: estes quarenta anos o SENHOR teu Deus foi contigo; e nenhuma coisa te faltou. 8E passamos por nossos irmãos os filhos de Esaú, que habitavam em Seir, pelo caminho da planície de Elate e de Eziom-Geber. E voltamos, e passamos caminho do deserto de Moabe. 9E o SENHOR me disse: Não perturbeis a Moabe, nem te empenhes com eles em guerra, que não te darei possessão de sua terra; porque eu dei a Ar por herança aos filhos de Ló. 10(Os emins habitaram nela antes, povo grande, e numeroso, e alto como gigantes: 11Por gigantes eram eles também contados, como os anaquins; e os moabitas os chamam emins. 12E em Seir habitaram antes os horeus, aos quais os filhos de Esaú expulsaram; e os destruíram de diante de si, e moraram em lugar deles; como fez Israel na terra de sua possessão que lhes deu o SENHOR.) 13Levantai-vos agora, e passai o ribeiro de Zerede. E passamos o ribeiro de Zerede. 14E os dias que andamos de Cades-Barneia até que passamos o ribeiro de Zerede, foram trinta e oito anos; até que se acabou toda a geração dos homens de guerra do meio do acampamento, como o SENHOR lhes havia jurado. 15E também a mão do SENHOR foi sobre eles para destruí-los do meio do campo, até acabá-los. 16E aconteceu que quando se acabaram de morrer todos os homens de guerra dentre o povo, 17O SENHOR me falou, dizendo: 18Tu passarás hoje o termo de Moabe, a Ar, 19E te aproximarás diante dos filhos de Amom: não os perturbeis, nem te metas com eles; porque não te tenho de dar possessão da terra dos filhos de Amom; que aos filhos de Ló a dei por herança. 20(Por terra de gigantes foi também ela tida: habitaram nela gigantes em outro tempo, aos quais os amonitas chamavam zanzumins; 21Povo grande, e numeroso, e alto, como os anaquins; aos quais o SENHOR destruiu de diante dos amonitas, os quais lhes sucederam, e habitaram em seu lugar: 22Como fez com os filhos de Esaú, que habitavam em Seir, de diante dos quais destruiu aos horeus; e eles lhes sucederam, e habitaram em seu lugar até hoje. 23E aos aveus que habitavam em vilas até Gaza, os caftoreus que saíram de Caftor os destruíram, e habitaram em seu lugar.) 24Levantai-vos, parti, e passai o ribeiro de Arnom: eis que dei em tua mão a Seom rei de Hesbom, amorreu, e a sua terra: começa a tomar possessão, e empenha-te com ele em guerra. 25Hoje começarei a pôr teu medo e teu espanto sobre os povos debaixo de todo o céu, os quais ouvirão tua fama, e tremerão, e se angustiarão diante de ti. 26E enviei mensageiros desde o deserto de Quedemote a Seom rei de Hesbom, com palavras de paz, dizendo: 27Passarei por tua terra pelo caminho: pelo caminho irei, sem apartar-me à direita nem à esquerda: 28A comida me venderás por dinheiro e comerei: a água também me darás por dinheiro, e beberei: somente passarei a pé; 29Como o fizeram comigo os filhos de Esaú que habitavam em Seir, e os moabitas que habitavam em Ar; até que passe o Jordão à terra que nos dá o SENHOR nosso Deus. 30Mas Seom rei de Hesbom não quis que passássemos pelo território seu; porque o SENHOR teu Deus havia endurecido seu espírito, e obstinado seu coração para entregá-lo em tua mão, como hoje. 31E disse-me o SENHOR: Eis que eu comecei a dar diante de ti a Seom e a sua terra; começa a tomar possessão, para que herdes sua terra. 32E saiu-nos Seom ao encontro, ele e todo seu povo, para lutar em Jaza. 33Mas o SENHOR nosso Deus o entregou diante de nós; e ferimos a ele e a seus filhos, e a todo seu povo. 34E tomamos então todas suas cidades, e destruímos todas as cidades, homens, e mulheres, e crianças; não deixamos ninguém: 35Somente tomamos para nós os animais, e os despojos das cidades que havíamos tomado. 36Desde Aroer, que está junto à beira do ribeiro de Arnom, e a cidade que está no ribeiro, até Gileade, não houve cidade que escapasse de nós: todas as entregou o SENHOR nosso Deus em nosso poder. 37Somente à terra dos filhos de Amom não chegaste, nem a tudo o que está à beira do ribeiro de Jaboque nem às cidades do monte, nem a lugar algum que o SENHOR nosso Deus havia proibido.
1Then we turned, and took our journey into the wilderness by the way to the Red Sea, as Yahweh spoke to me; and we encircled Mount Seir many days. 2Yahweh spoke to me, saying, 3“You have encircled this mountain long enough. Turn northward. 4Command the people, saying, ‘You are to pass through the border of your brothers the children of Esau, who dwell in Seir; and they will be afraid of you. Therefore be careful. 5Don’t contend with them; for I will not give you any of their land, no, not so much as for the sole of the foot to tread on; because I have given Mount Seir to Esau for a possession. 6You shall purchase food from them for money, that you may eat. You shall also buy water from them for money, that you may drink.’” 7For Yahweh your God has blessed you in all the work of your hand. He has known your walking through this great wilderness. These forty years, Yahweh your God has been with you. You have lacked nothing. 8So we passed by from our brothers the children of Esau, who dwell in Seir, from the way of the Arabah from Elath and from Ezion Geber. We turned and passed by the way of the wilderness of Moab. 9Yahweh said to me, “Don’t bother Moab, neither contend with them in battle; for I will not give you any of his land for a possession; because I have given Ar to the children of Lot for a possession.” 10(The Emim lived therein before, a people great, and many, and tall, as the Anakim. 11These also are considered to be Rephaim, as the Anakim; but the Moabites call them Emim. 12The Horites also lived in Seir before, but the children of Esau succeeded them. They destroyed them from before them, and lived in their place; as Israel did to the land of his possession, which Yahweh gave to them.) 13“Now rise up, and cross over the brook Zered.” We went over the brook Zered. 14The days in which we came from Kadesh Barnea, until we had come over the brook Zered, were thirty-eight years; until all the generation of the men of war were consumed from the midst of the camp, as Yahweh swore to them. 15Moreover the hand of Yahweh was against them, to destroy them from the midst of the camp, until they were consumed. 16So, when all the men of war were consumed and dead from among the people, 17Yahweh spoke to me, saying, 18“You are this day to pass over Ar, the border of Moab. 19When you come near the border of the children of Ammon, don’t bother them, nor contend with them; for I will not give you any of the land of the children of Ammon for a possession; because I have given it to the children of Lot for a possession.” 20(That also is considered a land of Rephaim: Rephaim lived there before; but the Ammonites call them Zamzummim, 21a great people, many, and tall, as the Anakim; but Yahweh destroyed them before them; and they succeeded them, and lived in their place; 22as he did for the children of Esau, who dwell in Seir, when he destroyed the Horites from before them; and they succeeded them, and lived in their place even to this day: 23and the Avvim, who lived in villages as far as Gaza, the Caphtorim, who came out of Caphtor, destroyed them, and lived in their place.) 24“Rise up, take your journey, and pass over the valley of the Arnon: behold, I have given into your hand Sihon the Amorite, king of Heshbon, and his land; begin to possess it, and contend with him in battle. 25This day will I begin to put the dread of you and the fear of you on the peoples who are under the whole sky, who shall hear the report of you, and shall tremble, and be in anguish because of you.” 26I sent messengers out of the wilderness of Kedemoth to Sihon king of Heshbon with words of peace, saying, 27“Let me pass through your land. I will go along by the highway, I will turn neither to the right hand nor to the left. 28You shall sell me food for money, that I may eat; and give me water for money, that I may drink. Just let me pass through on my feet, 29as the children of Esau who dwell in Seir, and the Moabites who dwell in Ar, did to me; until I pass over the Jordan into the land which Yahweh our God gives us.” 30But Sihon king of Heshbon would not let us pass by him; for Yahweh your God hardened his spirit, and made his heart obstinate, that he might deliver him into your hand, as at this day. 31Yahweh said to me, “Behold, I have begun to deliver up Sihon and his land before you. Begin to possess, that you may inherit his land.” 32Then Sihon came out against us, he and all his people, to battle at Jahaz. 33Yahweh our God delivered him up before us; and we struck him, his sons, and all his people. 34We took all his cities at that time, and utterly destroyed every inhabited city, with the women and the little ones. We left no one remaining. 35Only the livestock we took for plunder for ourselves, with the plunder of the cities which we had taken. 36From Aroer, which is on the edge of the valley of the Arnon, and the city that is in the valley, even to Gilead, there was not a city too high for us. Yahweh our God delivered up all before us. 37Only to the land of the children of Ammon you didn’t come near; all the side of the river Jabbok, and the cities of the hill country, and wherever Yahweh our God forbade us.
1Daarna keerden wij ons, en reisden naar de woestijn, den weg van de Schelfzee, gelijk de HEERE tot mij gesproken had, en wij togen om het gebergte Seir, vele dagen. 2Toen sprak de HEERE tot mij, zeggende: 3Gijlieden hebt dit gebergte genoeg omgetogen; keert u naar het noorden; 4En gebied het volk, zeggende: Gij zult doortrekken aan de landpale uwer broederen, de kinderen van Ezau, die in Seir wonen; zij zullen wel voor u vrezen; maar gij zult u zeer wachten. 5Mengt u niet met hen; want Ik zal u van hun land niet geven, ook niet tot de betreding van een voetzool; want Ik heb Ezau het gebergte Seir ter erfenis gegeven. 6Spijze zult gij voor geld van hen kopen, dat gij etet; en ook zult gij water voor geld van hen kopen, dat gij drinket. 7Want de HEERE, uw God, heeft u gezegend in al het werk uwer hand; Hij kent uw wandelen door deze zo grote woestijn; deze veertig jaren is de HEERE, uw God, met u geweest; geen ding heeft u ontbroken. 8Als wij nu doorgetrokken waren van onze broederen, de kinderen van Ezau, die in Seir woonden, van den weg des vlakken velds, van Elath, en van Ezeon-Geber, zo keerden wij ons, en doortogen den weg der woestijn van Moab. 9Toen sprak de HEERE tot mij: Beangstig Moab niet, en meng u niet met hen in den strijd; want Ik zal u geen erfenis van hun land geven, dewijl Ik aan Lots kinderen Ar ter erfenis gegeven heb. 10De Emieten woonden te voren daarin, een groot, en menigvuldig, en lang volk, gelijk de Enakieten. 11Dezen werden ook voor reuzen gehouden, als de Enakieten; en de Moabieten noemden hen Emieten. 12Ook woonden de Horieten te voren in Seir; maar de kinderen van Ezau verdreven hen uit de bezitting en verdelgden hen van hun aangezicht, en hebben in hunlieder plaats gewoond; gelijk als Israel gedaan heeft aan het land zijner erfenis, hetwelk de HEERE hun gegeven heeft. 13Nu, maakt u op, en trekt over de beek Zered. Alzo trokken wij over de beek Zered. 14De dagen nu, die wij gewandeld hebben van Kades-Barnea, totdat wij over de beek Zered getogen zijn, waren acht en dertig jaren; totdat het ganse geslacht der krijgslieden uit het midden der heirlegers verteerd was, gelijk de HEERE hun gezworen had. 15Zo was ook de hand des HEEREN tegen hen, om hen uit het midden des heirlegers te verslaan, totdat zij verteerd waren. 16En het geschiedde, als al de krijgslieden verteerd waren, uit het midden des heirlegers wegstervende, 17Dat de HEERE tot mij sprak, zeggende: 18Gij zult heden doortrekken aan Ar, de landpale van Moab; 19En gij zult naderen tegenover de kinderen Ammons; beangstig die niet, en meng u met hen niet; want Ik zal u van het land der kinderen Ammons geen erfenis geven, dewijl Ik het aan Lots kinderen ter erfenis gegeven heb. 20Dit werd ook voor een land der reuzen gehouden; de reuzen woonden te voren daarin, en de Ammonieten noemden hen Zamzummieten; 21Een groot, en menigvuldig, en lang volk, als de Enakieten; en de HEERE verdelgde hen voor hun aangezicht, zodat zij hen uit de bezitting verdreven, en aan hunlieder plaats woonden; 22Gelijk als Hij aan de kinderen van Ezau, die in Seir wonen, gedaan heeft, voor welker aangezicht Hij de Horieten verdelgde; en zij verdreven hen uit de bezitting, en hebben aan hun plaats gewoond tot op dezen dag. 23Ook hebben de Kafthorieten, die uit Kafthor uittogen, de Avieten, die in Hazerim tot Gaza toe woonden, verdelgd, en aan hun plaats gewoond. 24Maakt u op, reist heen, en gaat over de beek Arnon; ziet, Ik heb Sihon, den koning van Hesbon, den Amoriet, en zijn land, in uw hand gegeven; begint te erven, en mengt u met hen in den strijd. 25Te dezen dage zal Ik beginnen uw schrik en uw vreze te geven over het aangezicht der volken, onder den gansen hemel; die uw gerucht zullen horen, die zullen sidderen, en bang zijn van uw aangezicht. 26Toen zond ik boden uit de woestijn Kedemot tot Sihon, den koning van Hesbon, met woorden van vrede, zeggende: 27Laat mij door uw land doortrekken; ik zal alleenlijk langs den weg voorttrekken; ik zal noch ter rechterhand noch ter linkerhand uitwijken. 28Verkoop mij spijze voor geld, dat ik ete, en geef mij water voor geld, dat ik drinke; alleenlijk laat mij op mijn voeten doortrekken; 29Gelijk de kinderen van Ezau, die in Seir wonen, en de Moabieten, die in Ar wonen, mij gedaan hebben; totdat ik over de Jordaan kome in het land, dat de HEERE, onze God, ons geven zal. 30Maar Sihon, de koning van Hesbon, wilde ons door hetzelve niet laten doortrekken; want de HEERE,, uw God, verhardde zijn geest, en verstokte zijn hart, opdat Hij hem in uw hand gave, gelijk het is te dezen dage. 31En de HEERE zeide tot mij: Zie, Ik heb begonnen Sihon en zijn land voor uw aangezicht te geven; begin dan te erven, om zijn land erfelijk te bezitten. 32En Sihon toog uit ons tegemoet, hij en al zijn volk, ten strijde, naar Jahaz. 33En de HEERE, onze God, gaf hem voor ons aangezicht; en wij sloegen hem, en zijn zonen, en al zijn volk. 34En wij namen te dier tijd al zijn steden in, en wij verbanden alle steden, mannen, en vrouwen, en kinderkens; wij lieten niemand overblijven. 35Het vee alleen roofden wij voor ons, en den roof der steden, die wij innamen. 36Van Aroer af, dat aan den oever der beek Arnon is, en de stad, die aan de beek is, ook tot Gilead toe, was er geen stad, die voor ons te hoog was; de HEERE, onze God, gaf dat alles voor ons aangezicht. 37Behalve tot het land van de kinderen Ammons naderdet gij niet, noch tot de ganse streek der beek Jabbok, noch tot de steden van het gebergte, noch tot iets, dat de HEERE, onze God, ons verboden had.
