¹[Ny nandresen'ny Isiraely ny mpanjakan'i Arada] Ary raha ren'ilay Kananita, mpanjakan'i Arada, izay nonina teo amin'ny tany atsimo, fa efa mandeha amin'ny lalana mankany Atarima ny Isiraely, dia niady taminy izy, ka nentiny ho babo ny sasany tamin'ny Isiraely.

¹The Canaanite, the king of Arad, who lived in the South, heard tell that Israel came by the way of Atharim; and he fought against Israel, and took some of them captive.

²Dia nivoady tamin'i Jehovah ny Isiraely ka nanao hoe: Raha hatolotrao eo an-tananay tokoa ity firenena ity, dia hataonay levona avokoa ny tanànany.

²Israel vowed a vow to Yahweh, and said, “If you will indeed deliver this people into my hand, then I will utterly destroy their cities.”

³Ary Jehovah nihaino ny feon'ny Isiraely ka dia natolony azy ny Kananita: ary dia nataon'ny Isiraely levona izy sy ny tanànany; koa ny anaran'izany tany izany dia natao hoe Horma.

³Yahweh listened 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.

⁴[Ny Menarana Varahina] Ary niala tany an-tendrombohitra Hora izy ka nahazo ny lalana mankany amin'ny Ranomasina Mena hanodidina ny tany Edoma; dia kivy ny fanahin'ny olona noho ny lalana.

⁴They traveled from Mount Hor by the way to the Red Sea or, Sea of Reeds , to compass the land of Edom: and the soul of the people was much discouraged because of the way.

⁵Ary niteny nanome tsiny an'Andriamanitra sy Mosesy ny olona ka nanao hoe: Nahoana no nentinao niakatra avy tany Egypta amin'ny lalan'ny mpisafo-tany izahay ho faty atỳ an-efitra? fa tsy misy mofo na rano atỳ ary mahamonamonaina ny fanahinay itony mofomofo foana itony.

⁵The people spoke against God, and against Moses, “Why have you brought us up out of Egypt to die in the wilderness? For there is no bread, and there is no water; and our soul loathes this light bread.”

⁶Ary Jehovah dia nampandeha ny menaran'afo teny amin'ny olona, ka nanaikitra ny olona ireny; dia nahafatesana be ny olona Isiraely.

⁶Yahweh sent fiery serpents among the people, and they bit the people; and many people of Israel died.

⁷Dia nankeo amin'i Mosesy ny olona ka nanao hoe: Efa nanota izahay, fa efa niteny nanome tsiny an'i Jehovah sy ianao. Ifony amin'i Jehovah izahay mba hanesorany ny menarana aminay. Dia nifona ho an'ny olona Mosesy.

⁷The people came to Moses, and said, “We have sinned, because we have spoken against Yahweh, and against you. Pray to Yahweh, that he take away the serpents from us.” Moses prayed for the people.

⁸Ary hoy Jehovah taminy: Manaova menaran'afo, ka ahantòny amin'ny hazo lava, ary izay rehetra voakaikitra dia ho velona, raha mijery izany.

⁸Yahweh said to Moses, “Make a fiery serpent, and set it on a standard: and it shall happen, that everyone who is bitten, when he sees it, shall live.”

⁹Dia nanao menarana varahina Mosesy ka nanantona azy tamin'ny hazo lava; ary izay olona voakaikitry ny menarana ka nijery ilay menarana varahina dia velona.

⁹Moses made a serpent of brass, and set it on the standard: and it happened, that if a serpent had bitten any man, when he looked to the serpent of brass, he lived.

¹⁰[Ny nandehanan'ny Isiraely nanodidina ny tany Edoma sy Moaba, ary ny nandreseny an'i Sihona sy Oga] Ary ny Zanak'Isiraely nifindra ka nitoby tao Obota.

¹⁰The children of Israel traveled, and encamped in Oboth.

¹¹Ary nony niala tao Obota, izy, dia nitoby tao Ie-abarima, tany amin'ny efitra izay mifanolotra amin'i Moaba, tandrifin'ny fiposahan'ny masoandro.

¹¹They traveled from Oboth, and encamped at Iyeabarim, in the wilderness which is before Moab, toward the sunrise.

¹²Ary nony niala tao izy, dia nitoby tao amin'ny lohasahan-driaka Zareda.

¹²From there they traveled, and encamped in the valley of Zered.

¹³Ary nony niala tao izy, dia nitoby tao an-dafin'i Arnona, izay any an-efitra sady avy amin'ny fari-tanin'ny Amorita; fa Arnona no fari-tanin'ny Moabita, eo anelanelan'ny Moabita sy ny Amorita.

¹³From there they traveled, and encamped on the other side of the Arnon, which is in the wilderness, that comes out of the border of the Amorites: for the Arnon is the border of Moab, between Moab and the Amorites.

¹⁴Koa izany no ilazana eo amin'ny Bokin'ny Adin'i Jehovah hoe: Vaheba any Sofa sy ny lohasahan-driaka Arnona,

¹⁴Therefore it is said in the book of the Wars of Yahweh, “Vaheb in Suphah, the valleys of the Arnon,

¹⁵Ary ny tany kisolosolo amin'ny lohasahan-driaka, izay mandroso mankeo amin'ny tanin'i Ara ka mipaka amin'ny fari-tanin'i Moaba.

¹⁵the slope of the valleys that incline toward the dwelling of Ar, leans on the border of Moab.”

¹⁶Ary niala tao izy hankany Bera, dia ilay lavaka fantsakana nilazan'i Jehovah tamin'i Mosesy hoe: Angony ny olona, fa homeko rano izy.

¹⁶From there they traveled to Beer: that is the well of which Yahweh said to Moses, “Gather the people together, and I will give them water.”

¹⁷Dia nihira izao fihirana izao ny Isiraely: Miboiboiha, ry lavaka fantsakana! Ataovinareo an-kira izy;

¹⁷Then sang Israel this song: “Spring up, well; sing to it:

¹⁸Lavaka fantsakana izay nohadin'ireo mpanao lalàna, ary nolavahan'ireo manan-kaja amin'ny firenena. Tamin'ny tehiny, dia ny tehina fanapahana. Ary nony niala tany an-efitra izy, dia nankao Matana.

¹⁸the well, which the princes dug, which the nobles of the people dug, with the scepter, and with their poles.” From the wilderness they traveled to Mattanah;

¹⁹Ary nony niala tao Matana izy, dia nankao Nahaliela; ary nony niala tao Nahaliela izy, dia nankao Bamota;

¹⁹and from Mattanah to Nahaliel; and from Nahaliel to Bamoth;

²⁰ary nony niala tao Bamota izy, dia nankany an-dohasaha izay ao amin'ny tany Moaba, ao an-tampon'i Pisga, izay manatrika ny efitra.

²⁰and from Bamoth to the valley that is in the field of Moab, to the top of Pisgah, which looks down on the desert.

²¹Ary ny Isiraely naniraka olona ho any amin'i Sihona, mpanjakan'ny Amorita, hanao hoe:

²¹Israel sent messengers to Sihon king of the Amorites, saying,

²²Aoka mba handeha hamaky ny taninao izahay, fa tsy hania ho amin'ny saha na ho amin'ny tanim-boaloboka izahay, ary tsy hisotro ny rano amin'ny lavaka fantsakana; ny lalan'andriana ihany no halehanay mandra-pahafakay ny fari-taninao.

²²“Let me pass through your 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 your border.”

²³Nefa Sihona tsy namela ny Isiraely handeha hamaky ny taniny, fa nanangona ny vahoakany rehetra izy ka nivoaka avy tany an-efitra hihaona amin'ny Isiraely, dia nankany Jahaza; ary niady tamin'ny Isiraely teo izy.

²³Sihon would not allow 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.

²⁴Ary ny Isiraely namely azy tamin'ny lelan-tsabatra ka nahazo ny taniny hatrany Amona ka hatrany Jaboka, dia hatramin'ny taranak'i Amona; fa mafy ny fari-tanin'ny taranak'i Amona.

²⁴Israel struck him with the edge of the sword, and possessed his land from the Arnon to the Jabbok, even to the children of Ammon; for the border of the children of Ammon was strong.

²⁵Dia nalain'ny Isiraely izany tanàna rehetra izany; ary nonenany ny tanànan'ny Amorita rehetra, dia Hesbona sy ny zana-bohiny rehetra.

²⁵Israel took all these cities: and Israel lived in all the cities of the Amorites, in Heshbon, and in all its towns.

²⁶Hesbona no tanànan'i Sihona, mpanjakan'ny Amorita, izay efa nanafika ny mpanjakan'i Moaba taloha, ka efa nalainy taminy avokoa ny taniny rehetra hatrany Arnona.

²⁶For 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 to the Arnon.

²⁷Izany no nanaovan'ny mpanao oha-teny hoe: Midira ao Hesbona ianareo; aoka hamboarina sy hatao mafy ny tanànan'i Sihona;

²⁷Therefore those who speak in proverbs say, “Come to Heshbon. Let the city of Sihon be built and established;

²⁸Fa nisy afo nivoaka avy tao Hesbona, sy lelafo avy tao an-tanànan'i Sihona, Ka nandevona an'i Aran'i Moaba sy ny tompon'ny havoan'i Arnona.

²⁸for a fire has gone out of Heshbon, a flame from the city of Sihon. It has devoured Ar of Moab, The lords of the high places of the Arnon.

²⁹Lozanao, ry Moaba! Ringana ianao, ry olon'i Kemosy! Foiny handositra ny zananilahy, ary navelany ho babo ny zananivavy, ho an'i Sihona, mpanjakan'ny Amorita.

²⁹Woe to you, Moab! You are undone, people of Chemosh! He has given his sons as fugitives, and his daughters into captivity, to Sihon king of the Amorites.

³⁰Notifirintsika izy; ringana Hesbona hatrany Dibona; nofoanantsika izy hatrany Nofa, izay mipaka an'i Medeba.

³⁰We have shot at them. Heshbon has perished even to Dibon. We have laid waste even to Nophah, Which reaches to Medeba.”

³¹Dia nitoetra tao amin'ny tanin'ny Amorita ny Isiraely.

³¹Thus Israel lived in the land of the Amorites.

³²Ary Mosesy naniraka olona hisafo an'i Jazera; ary ny Isiraely dia nahafaka ny zana-bohiny ka nandroaka ny Amorita izay tany.

³²Moses sent to spy out Jazer; and they took its towns, and drove out the Amorites who were there.

³³Ary niverina ny olona ka niakatra tamin'ny lalana mankany Basana; dia nivoaka Oga, mpanjakan'i Basana, hihaona aminy, dia izy sy ny vahoakany rehetra, hiady tao Edrehy.

³³They 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.

³⁴Dia hoy Jehovah tamin'i Mosesy: Aza matahotra azy ianao, fa efa natolotro eo an-tananao izy sy ny vahoakany rehetra ary ny taniny; ary ianao hanao aminy araka izay nataonao tamin'i Sihona, mpanjakan'ny Amorita, izay nitoetra tao Hesbona.Dia namely azy sy ny zananilahy ary ny vahoakany rehetra izy, ka tsy nasiany niangana na dia iray akory aza; dia nahazo ny taniny izy.

³⁴Yahweh said to Moses, “Don’t fear him: for I have delivered him into your hand, and all his people, and his land; and you shall do to him as you did to Sihon king of the Amorites, who lived at Heshbon.”

³⁵Dia namely azy sy ny zananilahy ary ny vahoakany rehetra izy, ka tsy nasiany niangana na dia iray akory aza; dia nahazo ny taniny izy.

³⁵So they struck him, and his sons and all his people, until there was none left him remaining: and they possessed his land.
