Numbers:Chapter 21

戶籍紀	Numbers
¹客納罕人的阿辣得王，其時住在乃革布，聽說以色列人沿阿塔陵路前來，就與以色列人交戰，擄去了一些人。	¹And when king Arad the Chanaanite, who dwelt towards the south, had heard this, to wit, that Israel was come by the way of the spies, he fought against them, and overcoming them carried off their spoils.
²以色列人於是向上主許願說：「你若將這人民交在我手內，我必將他們的城毀滅。」	²But Israel binding himself by vow to the Lord, said: It thou wilt deliver this people into my hand, I will utterly destroy their cities.
³上主遂聽了以色列人的請求，將客納罕人交在他們手裏，以色列人就毀滅了他們和他們的城；人遂給那地方起名叫曷爾瑪。	³And the Lord heard the prayers of Israel, and delivered up the Chanaanite, and they cut them off and destroyed their cities: and they called the name of that place Horma, that is to say, Anathema.
⁴他們由曷爾山沿紅海的路起程出發，繞過厄東地；在路上人民已不耐煩，	⁴And they marched from mount Hor, by the way that leadeth to the Red Sea, to compass the land of Edom. And the people began to be weary of their journey and labour:
⁵抱怨天主和梅瑟說：「你們為什麼領我們由埃及上來死在曠野？這裏沒有糧食，又沒有水，我們對這輕淡的食物已感厭惡。」	⁵And speaking against God and Moses, they said: Why didst thou bring us out of Egypt, to die in the wilderness? There is no bread, nor have we any waters: our soul now loatheth this very light food.
⁶上主遂打發火蛇到人民中來，咬死了許多以色列人。	⁶Wherefore the Lord sent among the people fiery serpents, which bit them and killed many of them.
⁷人民於是來到梅瑟前說：「我們犯了罪，抱怨了上主和你；請你轉求上主，給我們趕走這些蛇。」梅瑟遂為人民轉求。	⁷Upon which they came to Moses, and said: We have sinned, because we have spoken against the Lord and thee: pray that he may take away these serpents from us. And Moses prayed for the people.
⁸上主對梅瑟說：「你做一條火蛇，懸在木竿上；凡是被咬的，一瞻仰牠，必得生存。」	⁸And the Lord said to him: Make brazen serpent, and set it up for a sign: whosoever being struck shall look on it, shall live.
⁹梅瑟遂做了一條銅蛇，懸在木竿上；那被蛇咬了的人，一瞻仰銅蛇，就保存了生命。	⁹Moses therefore made a brazen serpent, and set it up for a sign: which when they that were bitten looked upon, they were healed.
¹⁰以色列子民再起程出發，在敖波特紮了營；	¹⁰And the children of Israel setting forwards camped in Oboth.
¹¹由敖波特又出發，在依耶阿巴陵，即在面朝摩阿布東邊的曠野內紮了營。	¹¹And departing thence they pitched their tents in Jeabarim, in the wilderness, that faceth Moab toward the east.
¹²由那裏又出發，在則勒得河旁紮了營。	¹²And removing from thence, they came to the torrent Zared:
¹³由那裏又出發，在阿爾農北岸紮了營。這條河是在曠野中，由阿摩黎人的邊境流出；阿爾農就是摩阿布的邊界，介於摩阿布和阿摩黎之間。	¹³Which they left and encamped over against Arnon, which is in the desert and standeth out on the borders of the Amorrhite. For Arnon is the border of Moab, dividing the Moabites and the Amorrhites.
¹⁴為此在「上主的戰書」上說「……在穌法的瓦赫布和阿爾農山谷，	¹⁴Wherefore it is said in the book of the wars of the Lord: As he did in the Red Sea, so will he do in the streams of Amen.
¹⁵以及山谷的斜坡；這斜坡伸展到阿爾地區，緊靠摩阿布的邊境。」	¹⁵The rocks of the torrents were bowed down that they might rest in Ar, and lie down in the borders of the Moabites.
¹⁶由那裏他們到了貝爾，那裏有口井，上主曾指這井對梅瑟說：「你召集人民，我要賜給他們水喝。」	¹⁶When they went from that place, the well appeared whereof the Lord said to Moses: Gather the people together, and I will give them water.
¹⁷那時以色列人就唱了這首歌說：「井，湧出水來！你們應對它歌唱！	¹⁷Then Israel sung this song: Let the well spring up. They sung thereto:
¹⁸這井是領袖挖掘的，是民間的貴人，以權杖和棍棒挖鑿的。」他們由曠野到瑪塔納；	¹⁸The well, which the princes dug, and the chiefs of the people prepared by the direction of the lawgiver, and with their staves. And they marched from the wilderness to Mathana.
¹⁹由瑪塔納到了納哈里耳；由納哈里耳到了巴摩特；	¹⁹From Mathana unto Nahaliel: from Nahaliel unto Bamoth.
²⁰由巴摩特到了摩阿布田野的山谷，到了俯瞰荒野的丕斯加高峰。	²⁰From Bamoth, is a valley in the country of Moab, to the top of Phasga, which looked towards the desert.
²¹以色列人派遣使者到阿摩黎人的君王息紅前說：	²¹And Israel sent messengers to Sehon king of the Amorrhites, saying:
²²「請讓我由你國內經過；我們決不闖入莊田或葡萄園，也不喝井中的水，只沿王道而行，直至走過你的國境。」	²²I beseech thee that I may have leave to pass through thy land: we will not go aside into the fields or the vineyards, we will not drink waters of the wells, we will go the king's highway, till we be past thy borders.
²³息紅卻不讓以色列人經過他的國境；且調集自己所有的人民，往曠野裏去對抗以色列人；一來到雅哈茲，就與以色列交戰。	²³And he would not grant that Israel should pass by his borders: but rather gathering an army, went forth to meet them in the desert, and came to Jasa, and fought against them.
²⁴以色列人用刀劍將他擊敗，佔領了他的國境，自阿爾農河直到雅波克河，直到阿孟子民那裏，因為雅則爾是阿孟子民的邊界。	²⁴And he was slain by them with the edge of the sword, and they possessed his land from the Arnon unto the Jeboc, and to the confines of the children of Ammon: for the borders of the Ammonites, were kept with a strong garrison.
²⁵如此以色列人佔領了那裏所有的城鎮，就住在阿摩黎人所有的城鎮內，並住在赫市朋及其附屬城內。	²⁵So Israel took all his cities, and dwelt in the cities of the Amorrhite, to wit, in Hesebon, and in the villages thereof.
²⁶赫市朋原是阿摩黎人王息紅的都城。息紅與前任摩阿布王交戰，佔領了他所有的土地，直到阿爾農河。	²⁶Hesebon was the city of Sehon the king of the Amorrhites, who fought against the king of Moab: and took all the land, that had been of his dominions, as far as the Arnon.
²⁷為此詩人吟詠說：「你們到修建鞏固的赫市朋去，那穩固的息紅城；	²⁷Therefore it is said in the proverb: Come into Hesebon, let the city of Sehon be built and set up:
²⁸因為由赫市朋發出了火，從息紅的城冒出了火焰，吞滅了摩阿布的阿爾，消滅了阿爾農的高丘。	²⁸A fire is gone out of Hesebon, a flame from the city of Sehon, and hath consumed Ar of the Moabites, and the inhabitants of the high places of the Arnon.
²⁹禍哉，摩阿布！革摩士的人民，你已滅亡！他的兒子已逃亡，女兒已被俘，交給了阿摩黎人的君王息紅。	²⁹Woe to thee Moab: thou art undone, O people of Chamos. He hath given his sons to flight, and his daughters into captivity to Sehon the king of the Amorrhites.
³⁰但我們一襲擊他們，赫市朋直到狄朋，盡成廢墟；我們蹂躪一切……直到諾法黑，直到默德巴。」	³⁰Their yoke is perished from Hesebon unto Dibon, they came weary to Nophe, and unto Medaba.
³¹這樣以色列人就住在阿摩黎人的區域內。	³¹So Israel dwelt in the land of the Amorrhite.
³²梅瑟又派人去偵探雅則爾；他們佔領了這城及其附屬城鎮，驅逐了那裏的阿摩黎人。	³²And Moses sent some to take a view of Jazer: and they took the villages of it, and conquered the inhabitants.
³³以後前進，上了往巴商的路。巴商王敖格同他全國的人民，就出來對抗他們，在厄德勒與他們交戰。	³³And they turned themselves, and went up by the way of Basan, and Og the king of Basan came against them with all his people, to fight in Edrai.
³⁴上主對梅瑟說：「不必怕他，因為我已將他，他的一切人民和國土，都交在你手裏了；你要待他，如同對待住在赫市朋的阿摩黎人的君王息紅一樣。」	³⁴And the Lord said to Moses: Fear him not, for I have delivered him and all his people, and his country into thy hand: and thou shalt do to him as thou didst to Sehon the king of the Amorrhites, the inhabitant of Hesebon.
³⁵他們擊殺了他，他的兒子和他所有的人民，沒有剩下一個；遂佔據了他的國土。	³⁵So they slew him also with his sons, and all his people, not letting any one escape, and they possessed his land.
