YLT
Young's Literal Translation
Then
we turned
back
and headed
for
the wilderness by
way of the Red Sea, as the
LORD
had
instructed
me, and for
many
days
we wandered
around
Mount Seir.
`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
.
At
this
time
the
LORD
said
to
me,
`And
Jehovah
speaketh
unto
me, saying,
“
You have
been
wandering
around
this hill
country
long
enough
; turn to
the
north
Enough
to
you --
is
the
going
round
of
this mount
; turn for
yourselves
northward.
and command
the people :
‘You
will
pass
through
the territory
of your brothers
, the
descendants
of Esau, who live
in Seir .
They will
be
afraid of you ,
so
you
must
be
very careful.
`
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,
Do not provoke
them, for I will
not give you any
of their land ,
not
even a footprint,
because
I have given Mount Seir to
Esau
as
his
possession
.
ye
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.
You
are
to
pay
them
in
silver
for
the
food you
eat
and the
water you
drink.’”
`
Food ye
buy
from
them
with
money,
and have
eaten;
and
also
water ye
buy
from
them
with
money,
and
have
drunk,
Indeed,
the
LORD
your
God has
blessed you
in all the work of your
hands .
He has
watched
over
your
journey
through
this vast
wilderness .
The
LORD
your
God
has
been
with
you
these forty years ,
and
you
have
lacked nothing
.
for
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
.
So
we passed
by our brothers
, the
descendants
of Esau, who live
in Seir .
We
turned
away
from
the Arabah
road
, which
comes
up
from
Elath and Ezion- geber
, and traveled
along
the road
of the Wilderness of Moab .
`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 ;
Then
the
LORD
said
to
me, “
Do not harass
the
Moabites
or
provoke
them to
war
, for I will
not give you
any
of their land ,
because
I
have
given
Ar
to the descendants
of Lot as
their
possession. ”
and
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. '
(
The Emites
used
to
live
there
, a people great and many
, as
tall as the Anakites.
`
The Emim
formerly
have
dwelt
in
it
, a people great ,
and numerous
, and
tall ,
as the Anakim;
Like
the
Anakites
, they were
also regarded
as
Rephaim
, though
the Moabites called
them Emites
.
Rephaim
they
are
reckoned
, they also, as
the Anakim;
and
the
Moabites call
them Emim
.
The
Horites
used
to
live
in Seir ,
but
the descendants
of Esau drove
them out.
They
destroyed
the
Horites
from before them and settled
in their place
, just
as Israel did
in
the land that
the
LORD
gave
them
as
their
possession .)
And
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;
“
Now arise
and cross
over the Brook of
Zered .”
So
we crossed
over the Brook of
Zered.
now ,
rise
ye,
and pass
over for
yourselves
the brook Zered ;
and
we pass
over the brook Zered.
The time
we spent
traveling
from Kadesh-barnea until we crossed
over the Brook of
Zered was
thirty -
eight years, until
that
entire
generation of fighting
men had
perished
from the camp, as the
LORD
had
sworn to them .
`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 ;
Indeed,
the LORD’s
hand was
against them, to eliminate
them from the camp, until
they had
all
perished
.
and
also
the hand of
Jehovah
hath
been
against them, to destroy
them from the midst
of
the
camp, till
they are
consumed
.
Now
when all the fighting
men among
the people had
died
,
`And
it
cometh
to
pass,
when all the men of
battle
have
finished
dying
from
the midst
of
the
people,
the
LORD
said
to
me,
that
Jehovah
speaketh
unto
me, saying,
“Today
you
are
going
to cross
the border of Moab at
Ar .
Thou
art
passing
over
to -day
the border of Moab ,
even
Ar ,
But
when
you
get
close
to
the Ammonites
, do
not harass
them or
provoke
them, for I will
not give you
any of the land of the Ammonites.
I
have
given
it
to the descendants
of Lot as
their
possession. ”
and
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.
(That
too
was
regarded
as
the
land of the
Rephaim, who
used
to
live
there
, though
the Ammonites called
them Zamzummites.
`A
land of Rephaim it
is
reckoned
, even
it;
Rephaim
dwelt
in
it
formerly
, and
the Ammonites call
them Zamzummim;
They
were
a people great and many
, as
tall as the Anakites.
But
the
LORD
destroyed
them from
before the
Ammonites
, who
drove
them out
and settled
in their place
,
a people great ,
and numerous
, and
tall ,
as the Anakim,
and
Jehovah
destroyeth
them before them
, and
they
dispossess
them ,
and dwell
in their stead
,
just
as He had
done for the descendants
of Esau who lived
in Seir, when He destroyed the Horites
from before them .
They drove
them out
and have
lived
in their place
to
this day.
as 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.
And
the Avvim,
who lived
in villages
as
far
as
Gaza
, were
destroyed
by
the Caphtorites,
who came
out of
Caphtor and settled
in their place
. )
`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
.
“Arise,
set
out
, and cross
the Arnon Valley.
See, I have delivered
into your
hand Sihon the
Amorite,
king of Heshbon, and his land .
Begin to take
possession
of
it
and engage
him in battle.
`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.
This very
day I will
begin to put the
dread and fear of you
upon
all
the nations
under heaven.
They
will
hear
the reports
of
you
and tremble
in
anguish
because of you
. ”
This 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
.
So
from the Wilderness of Kedemoth I
sent
messengers
with
an
offer
of
peace
to
Sihon king of Heshbon, saying,
`And
I
send
messengers
from the wilderness of Kedemoth ,
unto
Sihon king of Heshbon, --
words
of
peace
--
saying,
“
Let us
pass through your
land; we
will
stay
on
the main
road.
We
will
not
turn to
the
right or to
the
left .
Let me
pass over
through thy
land; in
the several
ways
I
go;
I
turn not
aside
--
right or left --
You
can
sell
us
food to
eat
and water to
drink
in
exchange
for silver.
Only let us
pass through
on foot
,
food 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
, --
just
as the descendants
of Esau who live
in Seir and the Moabites who live
in Ar did
for
us
, until
we
cross
the Jordan into
the land that
the
LORD
our God is giving us. ”
as 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.
But
Sihon king of Heshbon would
not let us pass through
, for the
LORD
your
God had
made
his spirit stubborn
and his heart obstinate
, that
He
might
deliver
him into your
hand ,
as is
the
case
this day.
`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.
Then
the
LORD
said
to
me, “
See, I have begun to deliver
Sihon and his land over
to
you.
Now
begin to conquer
and
possess his land. ”
`And
Jehovah
saith
unto
me, See, I have begun to give
before
thee
Sihon and his land ;
begin to possess --
to
possess
his land.
So
Sihon and his whole
army
came
out
for
battle against
us
at
Jahaz .
`And
Sihon cometh
out
to
meet
us,
he
and all
his people,
to
battle to
Jahaz ;
And the
LORD
our God delivered
him over
to
us, and we defeated
him and his sons and his whole
army.
and Jehovah
our God giveth
him before
us, and we smite
him ,
and his sons ,
and all
his people;
At
that
time
we captured
all his cities and devoted
to
destruction
the people
of
every
city, including
women and children.
We left no
survivors.
and
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;
We carried
off
for ourselves only
the
livestock
and the plunder
from
the cities we captured.
only,
the
cattle
we have
spoiled
for ourselves ,
and the spoil
of
the cities which
we have
captured.
From Aroer on
the rim
of the Arnon Valley
, along
with
the city in
the valley
, even as
far
as
Gilead ,
not one
city had
walls
too high for us .
The LORD
our God gave
us all
of
them
.
`
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.
But
you
did
not
go
near
the land of the Ammonites
, or
the
land
along
the
banks
of the Jabbok River
, or
the
cities of the hill country, or
any
place
that
the
LORD
our God had
forbidden
.
`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
.
