Teutalonome 2

1“Then we turned and journeyed into the wilderness in the direction of the Red Sea, as the LORD told me. And for many days we traveled around Mount Seir.

1PEA naʻa tau tafoki, ʻo hiki hotau fononga ki he toafa ʻi he hala ʻoe Tahi Kulokula, ʻo hangē ko e folofola ʻa Sihova kiate au: pea naʻa tau tākai ʻae moʻunga ko Seia ʻo ʻaho lahi.

2Then the LORD said to me,

2“Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kiate au, ʻo pehē,

3‘You have been traveling around this mountain country long enough. Turn northward

3Kuo mou tākai ʻae moʻunga ni ʻo fuoloa: mou tafoki ki he feituʻu tokelau.

4and command the people, “You are about to pass through the territory of your brothers, the people of Esau, who live in Seir; and they will be afraid of you. So be very careful.

4Pea ke fekau ki he kakai, ʻo pehē, ‘Te mou ʻalu ʻi he potu fonua ʻo homou kāinga ko e fānau ʻa ʻIsoa, ʻaia ʻoku nofo ʻi Seia; pea ʻe manavahē ʻakinautolu kiate kimoutolu: ko ia, mou vakai lelei kiate kimoutolu.

5Do not 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 as a possession.

5‌ʻOua naʻa mou fai ha meʻa kiate kinautolu; koeʻuhi naʻa mo hano laulahi ʻoe ʻaofi vaʻe ʻe taha, ʻe ʻikai te u foaki kiate kimoutolu ha konga siʻi ʻo honau fonua: koeʻuhi kuo u foaki ʻae moʻunga ko Seia kia ʻIsoa ko e tofiʻa.

6You shall purchase food from them for money, that you may eat, and you shall also buy water of them for money, that you may drink.

6Te mou fakatau meʻakai meiate kinautolu ʻaki ʻae paʻanga, ke mou kai; pea te mou fakatau vai ʻiate kinautolu ʻaki ʻae paʻanga, ke mou inu.’

7For the LORD your God has blessed you in all the work of your hands. He knows your going through this great wilderness. These forty years the LORD your God has been with you. You have lacked nothing.”’

7He ko Sihova ko ho ʻOtua kuo ne tāpuakiʻi koe ʻi he ngaahi ngāue kotoa pē ʻa ho nima: ʻoku ne ʻafioʻi ho ʻeveʻeva ʻi he toafa lahi ni: ʻi he taʻu ʻe fāngofulu ni naʻe ʻiate koe ʻa Sihova ko ho ʻOtua; naʻe ʻikai te ke masiva ʻi ha meʻa ʻe taha.

8So we went on, away from our brothers, the people of Esau, who live in Seir, away from the Arabah road from Elath and Ezion-geber. “And we turned and went in the direction of the wilderness of Moab.

8Pea ʻi heʻetau ʻalu ange mei hotau kāinga ko e fānau ʻa ʻIsoa, ʻaia naʻe nofo ʻi Seia, ʻi he hala ʻoe toafa mei ʻElati, pea mei ʻEsioni-kepa, naʻa tau tafoki ʻo ʻalu ofi ki he hala ʻoe toafa ʻo Moape,

9And the LORD said to me, ‘Do not harass Moab or contend with them in battle, for I will not give you any of their land for a possession, because I have given Ar to the people of Lot for a possession.’

9Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kiate au, ‘ʻOua naʻa fakamamahi ki he kau Moape, pea ʻoua naʻa tauʻi ʻakinautolu koeʻuhi ʻe ʻikai te u foaki kiate koe honau fonua ko e tofiʻa; he kuo u foaki ʻa ʻAla ki he fānau ʻa Lote ko honau tofiʻa.’

10(The Emim formerly lived there, a people great and many, and tall as the Anakim.

10Naʻe nofo ʻi ai ʻi muʻa ʻae kau Imime, ko e kakai lalahi, mo tokolahi mo lōloa, ʻo hangē ko e kau ʻAnaki;

11Like the Anakim they are also counted as Rephaim, but the Moabites call them Emim.

11‌ʻAkinautolu naʻe ui foki ko e kau sino lalahi, hangē ko e kau ʻAnaki ka naʻe ui ʻakinautolu ʻe he kau Moape ko e kau Imime.

12The Horites also lived in Seir formerly, but the people of Esau dispossessed them and destroyed them from before them and settled in their place, as Israel did to the land of their possession, which the LORD gave to them.)

12Naʻe nofo ʻae kakai Hoa ʻi Seia foki ʻi muʻa; ka naʻe fetongi ʻakinautolu ʻe he fānau ʻa ʻIsoa, hili ʻenau fakaʻauha ʻakinautolu mei honau ʻao, pea nau nofo ʻi honau fonua; ʻo hangē ko ia kuo fai ʻe ʻIsileli ki he fonua ʻo hono tofiʻa, ʻaia naʻe foaki ʻe Sihova kiate kinautolu.

13‘Now rise up and go over the brook Zered.’So we went over the brook Zered.

13Pea ne u pehē, Mou tuʻu hake, ʻo ʻalu ki he kauvai ʻe taha ʻo Seleti. Pea naʻa tau ʻalu ki he kauvai ʻe taha ʻo Seleti:

14And the time from our leaving Kadesh-barnea until we crossed the brook Zered was thirty-eight years, until the entire generation, that is, the men of war, had perished from the camp, as the LORD had sworn to them.

14Pea ko hono fuoloa ʻo ʻetau haʻu mei Ketesi-pania, ʻo aʻu ki heʻetau hoko ki he kauvai ʻo Seleti, ko e taʻu ʻe tolungofulu ma valu: ke ʻoua ke ʻosiʻosingamālie mei he fakataha ʻae toʻutangata kotoa pē ʻoe kau tangata tau, ʻo hangē ko e fuakava ʻa Sihova kiate kinautolu.

15For indeed the hand of the LORD was against them, to destroy them from the camp, until they had perished.

15He ko e moʻoni naʻe mafao ʻae nima ʻo Sihova kiate kinautolu, ke fakaʻauha ʻakinautolu mei he kakai, kaeʻoua kenau ʻosi.

16“So as soon as all the men of war had perished and were dead from among the people,

16Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi heʻene mole ʻo pekia ʻae kau tangata tau kotoa pē mei he kakai,

17the LORD said to me,

17Naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kiate au, ʻo pehē,

18‘Today you are to cross the border of Moab at Ar.

18‘Te ke ʻalu atu he ʻaho ni ʻi he potu ʻo ʻAla, ʻi he mata fonua ʻo Moape:

19And when you approach the territory of the people of Ammon, do not harass them or contend with them, for I will not give you any of the land of the people of Ammon as a possession, because I have given it to the sons of Lot for a possession.’

19Pea ʻoka ke ka hoko ʻo ofi ʻo hangatonu ki he fānau ʻa ʻAmoni, ʻoua naʻa fakamamahiʻi ʻakinautolu, pea ʻoua naʻa fai ha meʻa kiate kinautolu: koeʻuhi ʻe ʻikai te u foaki kiate koe ha tofiʻa ʻi he fonua ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻAmoni; he kuo tuku ia ki he fānau ʻa Lote ko honau tofiʻa.’

20(It is also counted as a land of Rephaim. Rephaim formerly lived there—but the Ammonites call them Zamzummim—

20(Naʻe ui ia foki ko e fonua ʻoe ngaahi kakai lalahi naʻe nofo ai ʻi muʻa ʻae kakai lalahi pea naʻe ui ʻakinautolu ʻe he kau ʻAmoni, ko e kau Samisunuma;

21a people great and many, and tall as the Anakim; but the LORD destroyed them before the Ammonites, and they dispossessed them and settled in their place,

21Ko e kakai lalahi, mo tokolahi, mo lōloa, ʻo hangē ko e kau ʻAnaki: ka naʻe fakaʻauha ʻakinautolu ʻe Sihova ʻi honau ʻao; pea naʻa nau tongia ʻakinautolu ʻo nofo ʻi honau fonua:

22as he did for the people of Esau, who live in Seir, when he destroyed the Horites before them and they dispossessed them and settled in their place even to this day.

22Hangē ko ia naʻa ne fai ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsoa, ʻaia naʻe nofo ʻi Seia, ʻi heʻene fakaʻauha ʻae kakai Hoa mei honau ʻao; pea naʻa nau tongia ʻakinautolu, pea nofo ʻi honau fonua ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho ni:

23As for the Avvim, who lived in villages as far as Gaza, the Caphtorim, who came from Caphtor, destroyed them and settled in their place.)

23Pea ko e kakai ʻAvi naʻe nofo ʻi Heselimi, ʻo aʻu ki Kesa, ko e kau Kafitoli ni, ʻaia naʻe haʻu mei Kafitoli, naʻe fakaʻauha ʻakinautolu, ʻo nofo ʻi honau fonua.)

24‘Rise up, set out on your journey and go over the Valley of the Arnon. Behold, I have given into your hand Sihon the Amorite, king of Heshbon, and his land. Begin to take possession, and contend with him in battle.

24“Mou tuʻu hake, ʻo fai homou fononga, pea aʻa ʻi he vaitafe ko ʻAlanoni: vakai, kuo u tuku ki ho nima ʻa Sihoni ko e ʻAmoli, ko e tuʻi ʻo Hesiponi, mo hono fonua: mou fai ʻae kamata maʻu leva ia, pea ketau mo ia.

25This day I will begin to put the dread and fear of you on the peoples who are under the whole heaven, who shall hear the report of you and shall tremble and be in anguish because of you.’

25Te u kamata fai he ʻaho ni ke ʻai ʻae manavahē kiate koe ki he ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē ʻoku ʻi he lalo langi kotoa pē, ʻaia tenau ongoʻi ho ongoongo, pea tetetete, pea tenau feinga ʻi he mamahi koeʻuhi ko koe.

26“So I sent messengers from the wilderness of Kedemoth to Sihon the king of Heshbon, with words of peace, saying,

26“Pea ne u fekau ʻae kau tangata fekau mei he toafa ʻo Ketimote, kia Sihoni ko e tuʻi ʻo Hesiponi mo e ngaahi lea ʻoe melino, ʻo pehē,

27‘Let me pass through your land. I will go only by the road; I will turn aside neither to the right nor to the left.

27‘Tuku ke u ʻalu atu ʻi ho fonua: Te u ʻalu atu pe ʻi he hala motuʻa, ʻe ʻikai teu tafoki ki he nima toʻomataʻu pe ki he toʻohema.

28You shall sell me food for money, that I may eat, and give me water for money, that I may drink. Only let me pass through on foot,

28Pea te ke fakatau ʻae meʻakai kiate au ʻaki ʻae paʻanga, koeʻuhi ke u kai; pea tuku mai ha vai ʻi heʻeku paʻanga ke u inu: kae kehe ke u ʻalu ʻi ho fonua ʻi hoku vaʻe pe:

29as the sons of Esau who live in Seir and the Moabites who live in Ar did for me, until I go over the Jordan into the land that the LORD our God is giving to us.’

29(Hangē ko ia naʻe fai kiate au ʻe he fānau ʻa ʻIsoa naʻe nofo ʻi Seia, mo e kau Moape naʻe nofo ʻi ʻAla;) ke ʻoua ke u aʻa atu ʻi Sioatani ki he fonua ʻoku foaki ʻe Sihova ko homau ʻOtua kiate kimautolu.’

30But Sihon the king of Heshbon would not let us pass by him, for the LORD your God hardened his spirit and made his heart obstinate, that he might give him into your hand, as he is this day.

30“Ka naʻe ʻikai tuku ʻakitautolu ʻe Sihoni ko e tuʻi ʻo Hesiponi, ketau ʻalu ofi kiate ia; he naʻe fakafefeka hono laumālie ʻe Sihova ko ho ʻOtua, ʻo ngaohi hono loto ke talangataʻa, koeʻuhi ke ne tukuange ia ki ho nima, ʻo hangē ko ia kuo hā he ʻaho ni.

31And the LORD said to me, ‘Behold, I have begun to give Sihon and his land over to you. Begin to take possession, that you may occupy his land.’

31“Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova kiate au, ‘Vakai, kuo u kamata tuku ʻa Sihoni mo hono fonua ʻi ho ʻao: ke ke kamata maʻu, koeʻuhi ke ke hoko ʻo maʻu hono fonua.’

32Then Sihon came out against us, he and all his people, to battle at Jahaz.

32Pea naʻe toki haʻu kituʻa ʻa Sihoni ʻo tuʻu kiate kitautolu, ʻaia mo hono kakai kotoa pē, ketau ʻi Sehasi.

33And the LORD our God gave him over to us, and we defeated him and his sons and all his people.

33Pea naʻe tuku mai ia ʻi hotau ʻao ʻe Sihova, ko hotau ʻOtua; pea naʻa tau taaʻi ia, mo hono ngaahi foha, mo ʻene kakai kotoa pē.

34And we captured all his cities at that time and devoted to destruction every city, men, women, and children. We left no survivors.

34Pea naʻa tau maʻu ʻene ngaahi kolo ʻi he kuonga ko ia, pea naʻa tau fakaʻauha ʻae kau tangata kotoa pē, mo e kau fefine, pea mo e fānau iiki ʻi he kolo kotoa pē; naʻe ʻikai te tau tuku ha niʻihi ke toe:

35Only the livestock we took as spoil for ourselves, with the plunder of the cities that we captured.

35Ka ko e ngaahi fanga manu naʻa tau maʻu ko e koloa maʻatautolu, mo e vete ʻoe ngaahi kolo ʻaia naʻa tau maʻu.

36From Aroer, which is on the edge of the Valley of the Arnon, and from the city that is in the valley, as far as Gilead, there was not a city too high for us. The LORD our God gave all into our hands.

36Mei ʻAloeli ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he veʻe vaitafe ʻo ʻAlanoni, pea mei he kolo ʻaia ʻoku ofi ki he vaitafe, ʻo aʻu ki Kiliati, naʻe ʻikai ha kolo ʻe taha naʻe mālohi kiate kitautolu: ko Sihova ko hotau ʻOtua naʻa ne tuku mai kotoa pē kiate kitautolu:

37Only to the land of the sons of Ammon you did not draw near, that is, to all the banks of the river Jabbok and the cities of the hill country, whatever the LORD our God had forbidden us.

37Ka naʻe ʻikai te ke hoko ki he fonua ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻAmoni, pe ki ha potu ʻe taha ʻoe vaitafe ko Sakopi, pe ki he ngaahi kolo ʻi he ngaahi moʻunga, pe ki ha potu ʻe taha naʻe taʻofi ʻakitautolu mei ai ʻe Sihova ko hotau ʻOtua.
