1旷野飘流
1`And we turn, and journey into the wilderness, the way of the Red Sea, as Jehovah hath spoken unto me, and we go round the mount of Seir many days.
2耶和华对我说：
2`And Jehovah speaketh unto me, saying,
3‘你们绕行这山的日子已经够了；现在要转向北去。
3Enough to you — is the going round of this mount; turn for yourselves northward.
4你要吩咐人民说：“你们的兄弟以扫的子孙，住在西珥，你们现在要经过他们的境界；他们必惧怕你们，所以你们要十分谨慎。
4`And the people command thou, saying, Ye are passing over into the border of your brethren, sons of Esau, who are dwelling in Seir, and they are afraid of you; and ye have been very watchful,
5不要与他们争执；他们的地，连脚掌那么大的一块，我都不给你们，因为我已经把西珥山赐给以扫作产业。
5ye do not strive with them, for I do not give to you of their land even the treading of the sole of a foot; for a possession to Esau I have given mount Seir.
6你们要用银子向他们买食物吃；也要用银子向他们买水喝。
6`Food ye buy from them with money, and have eaten; and also water ye buy from them with money, and have drunk,
7因为耶和华你的 神，对于你手里所作的一切事，都已经赐福给你；他也知道你怎样走这大旷野；这四十年来，耶和华你们的 神常与你同在，使你毫无缺乏。”’
7for Jehovah thy God hath blessed thee in all the work of thy hands; He hath known thy walking in this great wilderness these forty years; Jehovah thy God [is] with thee; thou hast not lacked anything.
8“于是我们离开我们住在西珥的兄弟以扫的子孙，继续前行；沿着亚拉巴的路，到了以拉他和以旬．迦别，然后转向摩押旷野的路去。
8`And we pass by from our brethren, sons of Esau, who are dwelling in Seir, by the way of the plain, by Elath, and by Ezion-Gaber; and we turn, and pass over the way of the wilderness of Moab;
9耶和华对我说：‘你不可敌视摩押人，也不可与他们争战；他们的地我不赐给你作产业，因为我已经把亚珥赐给了罗得的子孙作产业。
9and Jehovah saith unto me, Do not distress Moab, nor stir thyself up against them [in] battle, for I do not give to thee of their land [for] a possession; for to the sons of Lot I have given Ar [for] a possession.`
10（以前有以米人住在那里，这族人人数众多，身体高大，像亚衲族人一样。
10`The Emim formerly have dwelt in it, a people great, and numerous, and tall, as the Anakim;
11这以米人，像亚衲族人一样，也算为利乏音人；但摩押人称他们为以米人。
11Rephaim they are reckoned, they also, as the Anakim; and the Moabites call them Emim.
12以前何利人也住在西珥，但以扫的子孙占领了他们的产业，消灭了他们，住在他们那里，就像以色列在耶和华赐给他们作产业的地上所行的一样。）
12And in Seir have the Horim dwelt formerly; and the sons of Esau dispossess them, and destroy them from before them, and dwell in their stead, as Israel hath done to the land of his possession, which Jehovah hath given to them;
13现在你们要起来，过撒烈溪。’于是我们过了撒烈溪。
13now, rise ye, and pass over for yourselves the brook Zered; and we pass over the brook Zered.
14自从我们离开加低斯．巴尼亚，直到过了撒烈溪的日子，共有三十八年，等到那世代的战士都从营中灭绝为止，正像耶和华向他们所起的誓一样。
14`And the days which we have walked from Kadesh-Barnea until that we have passed over the brook Zered, [are] thirty and eight years, till the consumption of all the generation of the men of battle from the midst of the camp, as Jehovah hath sworn to them;
15耶和华的手攻击了他们，把他们从营中除灭，直到灭尽为止。
15and also the hand of Jehovah hath been against them, to destroy them from the midst of the camp, till they are consumed.
16“所有战士都从民中死尽以后，
16`And it cometh to pass, when all the men of battle have finished dying from the midst of the people,
17耶和华就对我说：
17that Jehovah speaketh unto me, saying,
18‘你今天要经过摩押的境界亚珥；
18Thou art passing over to-day the border of Moab, even Ar,
19你走近亚扪人面前的时候，不可敌视他们，也不可与他们争执；亚扪人的地我不赐给你们作产业，因为我已经把那地赐给了罗得的子孙作产业。
19and thou hast come near over-against the sons of Ammon, thou dost not distress them, nor stir up thyself against them, for I do not give [any] of the land of the sons of Ammon to thee [for] a possession; for to the sons of Lot I have given it [for] a possession.
20（那地也算为利乏音人的地，以前利乏音人住在那里，但亚扪人称他们为散送冥。
20`A land of Rephaim it is reckoned, even it; Rephaim dwelt in it formerly, and the Ammonites call them Zamzummim;
21这族人人数众多，身体高大，像亚衲族人一样；但耶和华从亚扪人面前消灭了他们，亚扪人就占领了他们的地业，住在那里，
21a people great, and numerous, and tall, as the Anakim, and Jehovah destroyeth them before them, and they dispossess them, and dwell in their stead,
22好像耶和华从前为住在西珥的以扫的子孙所作的一样，就是把何利人从他们面前消灭，他们就占领了他们的地业，住在他们那里，直到今日。
22as He hath done for the sons of Esau, who are dwelling in Seir, when He destroyed the Horim from before them, and they dispossess them, and dwell in their stead, unto this day.
23还有亚卫人，原先住在迦萨附近的各村庄里，有从迦斐托出来的迦斐托人把他们消灭了，住在他们那里。）
23`As to the Avim who are dwelling in Hazerim unto Azzah, the Caphtorim — who are coming out from Caphtor — have destroyed them, and dwell in their stead.
24现在你要起来，出发，过亚嫩谷；看哪，我已经把亚摩利人希实本王西宏和他的土地，交在你的手里了；你要开始占领那地作产业，与他争战。
24`Rise ye, journey and pass over the brook Arnon; see, I have given into thy hand Sihon king of Heshbon, the Amorite, and his land; begin to possess, and stir up thyself against him [in] battle.
25就在今天，我要使天下万民听见你的消息都惊慌惧怕，而且因你的缘故发抖疼痛。’
25This day I begin to put thy dread and thy fear on the face of the peoples under the whole heavens, who hear thy fame, and have trembled and been pained because of thee.
26击败希实本王西宏（民21:21-30）“我从基底莫的旷野，派使者到希实本王西宏那里去，用和平的话说：
26`And I send messengers from the wilderness of Kedemoth, unto Sihon king of Heshbon, — words of peace — saying,
27‘求你让我从你的地经过；我只走大道，不偏左也不偏右。
27Let me pass over through thy land; in the several ways I go; I turn not aside — right or left —
28你可以按着价钱把食物卖给我吃，也可以按着价钱把水卖给我喝；只要让我步行过去就是了；
28food for money thou dost sell me, and I have eaten; and water for money thou dost give to me, and I have drunk; only, let me pass over on my feet, —
29好像住在西珥的以扫子孙，和住在西珥的摩押人待我一样，等我过约旦河，进到耶和华我们的 神赐给我们的地去。’
29as the sons of Esau who are dwelling in Seir, and the Moabites who are dwelling in Ar, have done to me — till that I pass over the Jordan, unto the land which Jehovah our God is giving to us.
30但是希实本王西宏不肯让我们从他那里经过，因为耶和华我们的 神使他的心意顽固，使他的心刚硬，为要把他交在你的手里，像今日一样。
30`And Sihon king of Heshbon hath not been willing to let us pass over by him, for Jehovah thy God hath hardened his spirit, and strengthened his heart, so as to give him into thy hand as at this day.
31耶和华对我说：‘看哪，我已经把西宏和他的地交给你了，你可以占领他的地作产业。’
31`And Jehovah saith unto me, See, I have begun to give before thee Sihon and his land; begin to possess — to possess his land.
32“那时西宏和他所有的人民都出来，攻击我们，在雅杂与我们作战。
32`And Sihon cometh out to meet us, he and all his people, to battle to Jahaz;
33耶和华我们的 神把他交给了我们，我们就把他、他的儿子们和他所有的人民都击杀了。
33and Jehovah our God giveth him before us, and we smite him, and his sons, and all his people;
34那时我们夺取了他所有的城邑，把每一座城，连男带女，以及小孩子都全部毁灭，没有留下一个存活的；
34and we capture all his cities at that time, and devote the whole city, men, and the women, and the infants — we have not left a remnant;
35只留下我们掠为己有的牲畜，和我们夺取城邑所得的战利品。
35only, the cattle we have spoiled for ourselves, and the spoil of the cities which we have captured.
36从亚嫩谷旁边的亚罗珥和谷中的城，直到基列，没有一座城太高，是我们不能攻下的；耶和华我们的 神把这一切都交给我们了。
36`From Aroer, which [is] by the edge of the brook Arnon, and the city which [is] by the brook, even unto Gilead there hath not been a city which [is] too high for us; the whole hath Jehovah our God given before us.
37只有亚扪人的地，雅博河一带的地方，和山地的城市，以及耶和华我们的 神吩咐我们不可去的地方，我们都没有走近。”
37`Only, unto the land of the sons of Ammon thou hast not drawn near, any part of the brook Jabbok, and cities of the hill-country, and anything which Jehovah our God hath [not] commanded.
