1 ¶ And when king Arad, the Canaanite, who dwelt toward the Negev, heard tell that Israel came by the way of the sentinels; then he fought against Israel and took some of them prisoners.

A ka rongo a Kingi Arara, te Kanaani, i noho nei ki te taha ki te tonga, e haere ana a Iharaira na te ara o Atarimi; na ka tatau ia ki a Iharaira, a whakaraua ana etahi o ratou e ia.

2 T hen Israel vowed a vow unto the LORD and said, If thou wilt indeed deliver this people into my hand, then I will utterly destroy their cities.

Na ka puta te ki taurangi a Iharaira ki a Ihowa, ka mea, Ki te tukua mai e koe tenei iwi ki toku ringa ka tino whakangaromia e ahau o ratou pa.

3 A nd the LORD hearkened to the voice of Israel and delivered up the Canaanite; and they utterly destroyed them and their cities, and he called the name of the place Hormah.

A i whakarongo a Ihowa ki te reo o Iharaira, a homai ana e ia nga Kanaani; a tino whakangaromia ana ratou me o ratou pa e ratou: a huaina iho te ingoa o taua wahi ko Horema.

4 ¶ And they journeyed from Mount Hor by the way of the Red sea, to go around the land of Edom, and the soul of the people was much discouraged because of the way.

Na, ka turia atu e ratou i Maunga Horo na te ara o te Moana Whero ki te taiawhio i te whenua o Eroma: a pouri noa iho te wairua o te iwi i te ara.

5 A nd the people spoke against God and against Moses, Why have ye brought us up out of Egypt to die in the wilderness? There is no bread, neither is there any water; and our soul loathes this light bread.

A ka whakahe te iwi i te Atua, i a Mohi hoki, He aha i kawea mai ai matou ki runga nei i Ihipa kia mate ki te koraha? kahore nei hoki he taro, kahore he wai; a e whakarihariha ana to matou wairua ki tenei taro mama.

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

Na ka tukua mai e Ihowa he nakahi tu a ahi ki te iwi, a ka ngaua te iwi; a he tokomaha o Iharaira i mate.

7 T hen the people came to Moses and said, We have sinned, for we have spoken against the LORD and against thee; pray unto the LORD that he take away these serpents from among us. And Moses prayed for the people.

Na ka haere te iwi ki a Mohi, ka mea, Kua hara matou i a matou i whakahe i a Ihowa, i a koe hoki; inoi ki a Ihowa kia tangohia atu e ia nga nakahi i a matou. Na ka inoi a Mohi mo te iwi.

8 A nd the LORD said unto Moses, Make thee a fiery serpent and lift it up as a banner, and it shall be that anyone that is bitten and looks upon it shall live.

Na ka mea a Ihowa ki a Mohi, Hanga tetahi nakahi tu a ahi mau, ka whakanoho ki te pou: na, mehemea kua ngaua tetahi, a ka titiro atu ia ki reira, ka ora.

9 A nd Moses made a serpent of brass and put it up as a banner, and it came to pass that when a serpent bit anyone, he beheld the serpent of brass, and lived.

Na hanga ana e Mohi te nakahi ki te parahi, a whakanohoia ana ki te pou; na, mehemea kua ngaua tetahi e te nakahi, ka titiro ia ki te nakahi parahi, kua ora.

10 ¶ And the sons of Israel set forward and pitched camp in Oboth.

Na ka turia atu e nga tama a Iharaira, a noho ana i Opoto.

11 A nd they journeyed from Oboth and pitched at Ijeabarim, in the wilderness which is before Moab, toward the rising of the sun.

A ka turia atu i Opoto, a noho ana i Iteaparimi, i te koraha i te ritenga atu o Moapa, whaka te rawhiti.

12 F rom there they removed and pitched in the valley of Zared.

A ka haere atu ratou i reira, a noho ana i te raorao i Terete.

13 F rom thence they removed and pitched on the other side of Arnon, which is in the wilderness that comes out of the borders of the Amorite; for Arnon is the border of Moab between Moab and the Amorite.

Na ka turia atu i reira, a noho ana i tera taha o Aronona, o tera i te koraha e puta mai ana i nga wahi o nga Amori: ko Aronona hoki te rohe ki a Moapa, kei waenganui o Moapa, o nga Amori.

14 T herefore it is said in the book of the battles of the LORD, What he did in the Red sea, and in the brooks of Arnon

Koia i korerotia ai i te pukapuka o nga whawhai a Ihowa, Ko tana i mea ai ki te Moana Whero, ki nga awa hoki o Aronona,

15 a nd at the stream of the brooks that goes down to the dwelling of Ar, and lies upon the border of Moab.

Ki nga hurihanga wai ano hoki, e anga ana ki te nohoanga i Ara, e piri nei ki te rohe o Moapa.

16 A nd from there they went to Beer; this is the well of which the LORD spoke unto Moses, Gather the people together, and I will give them water.

A i haere atu ratou i reira ki Peere: ko te puna ia i korero ai a Ihowa ki a Mohi, Huihuia te iwi, a maku e hoatu he wai ki a ratou.

17 T hen Israel sang this song, Spring up, O well; sing ye unto it.

Na ka waiatatia tenei waiata e Iharaira, Pupuke ake, e te puna; waiatatia:

18 T he princes dug the well, the willing people dug it, and the lawgiver, with their staves. And from the wilderness they went to Mattanah.

Te puna i keria e nga rangatira, i keria e nga ariki o te iwi, ki te hepeta, a ki a ratou tokotoko. Na ka turia atu e ratou tokotoko. Na ka turia atu e ratou i te koraha ki Matana:

19 A nd from Mattanah to Nahaliel, and from Nahaliel to Bamoth.

I Matana hoki ki Nahariere; a ia Nahariere ki Pamoto:

20 A nd from Bamoth in the valley, that is in the fields of Moab, to the top of Pisgah, which looks toward Jeshimon.

A i Pamoto ki te raorao i te whenua o Moapa, ki te tihi o Pihika, e titiro iho ana ki te koraha.

21 ¶ And Israel sent messengers unto Sihon king of the Amorites, saying,

Na ka unga tangata a Iharaira ki a Hihona kingi o nga Amori, hei mea,

22 L et me pass through thy land; we will not turn into the fields or into the vineyards; we will not drink of the waters of the wells; but we will go along by the king’s high way until we are past thy borders.

Tukua atu ahau na tou whenua; e kore matou e peka ki nga mara, ki nga mara waina ranei; e kore matou e inu i te wai o nga puna: ka haere matou na te huanui o te kingi, kia pahemo ra ano ou rohe i a matou.

23 B ut Sihon would not allow Israel to pass through his border; instead Sihon gathered all his people together and went out against Israel into the wilderness; and he came to Jahaz and fought against Israel.

Otiia kihai a Hihona i tuku i a Iharaira kia tika na tona wahi; na huihuia ana e Hihona tona iwi katoa, a puta mai ana ki te tu i a Iharaira ki te koraha, na ka haere ia ki Iahata: a ka tatau ia i a Iharaira.

24 A nd Israel smote him with the edge of the sword and possessed his land from Arnon unto Jabbok, even unto the sons of Ammon, for the border of the sons of Ammon was strong.

A patua iho ia e Iharaira ki te mata o te hoari, tangohia ana e ratou tona whenua, o Aranona atu a tae noa ki Iapoko, ki nga tama ra ano a Amona: he rohe hoki e kore e taea to nga tama a Amona.

25 A nd Israel took all these cities; and Israel dwelt in all the cities of the Amorites in Heshbon and in all the villages thereof.

A riro ana i a Iharaira enei pa katoa: a nohoia ana e Iharaira nga pa katoa o nga Amori, a Hehepona, me ona pa ririki.

26 F or Heshbon was the city of Sihon the king of the Amorites, who had fought against the former king of Moab and taken out of his hand all his land unto Arnon.

He pa hoki a Hehepona no Hihona kingi o nga Amori; i whawhai hoki ia ki to mua kingi o Moapa, a tangohia ana e ia tona whenua katoa i tona ringa a tae noa ki Aronona.

27 T herefore those that speak in proverbs say, Come into Heshbon, let the city of Sihon be built and prepared;

Koia te hunga korero whakatauki ka mea ai, Haere mai ki Hehepona, kia hanga, kia whakaungia te pa o Hihoma:

28 f or there is a fire gone out of Heshbon, a flame from the city of Sihon; it has consumed Ar of Moab and the lords of the high places of Arnon.

Kua puta atu hoki he ahi i Hehepona, he mura i te pa o Hihona: a pau ake a Ara o Moapa, me nga ariki o nga wahi tiketike o Aranona.

29 W oe to thee, Moab! thou art undone, O people of Chemosh; he has put thy sons to flight and thy daughters into captivity because of Sihon king of the Amorites.

Aue te mate mou, e Moapa! ka ngaro koe, e te iwi o Kemoho: kua hoatu e ia ana tama i rere morehu, me ana tamahine, hei pononga ma Hihona, ma te kingi o nga Amori.

30 A nd Heshbon destroyed their kingdom even unto Dibon, and we have laid them waste even unto Nophah and Medeba.

I kopere atu matou ki a ratou; kua ngaro a Hehepona, tae noa ki Ripono, kua huna e matou tae noa ki Nopa e totoro atu nei ki Merepa.

31 T hus Israel dwelt in the land of the Amorite.

Na ka noho a Iharaira ki te whenua o nga Amori.

32 A nd Moses sent to spy out Jaazer, and they took the villages thereof and drove out the Amorite that was there.

A ka tono tangata a Mohi ki te tutei i Iatere, a ka riro i a ratou nga pa o reira, i pana hoki nga Amori e noho ana i reira.

33 A nd they 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 the battle at Edrei.

Na ka tahuri ratou, a ka haere ki runga na te ara o Pahana: na ko te putanga mai o Oka kingi o Pahana, ki te whakatutaki i a ratou, a ia, me tona iwi katoa ki te whawhai ki Eterei.

34 T hen the LORD said unto Moses, Fear him not, for I have delivered him into thy hand and all his people and his land; and thou shalt do to him as thou didst unto Sihon king of the Amorites, who dwelt at Heshbon.

A ka mea a Ihowa ki a Mohi, Kei wehi i a ia; kua hoatu hoki ia e ahau ki tou ringa, me tona iwi katoa, me tona whenua; a ka rite tau e mea ai ki a ia ki tau i mea ai ki a Hihona kingi o nga Amori i noho ra i Hehepona.

35 S o they smote him and his sons and all his people until there was none left him alive; and they possessed his land.

Na patua iho ia e ratou, me ana tama, me tona iwi katoa, a kore noa e toe tetahi morehu ona: a tangohia ana e ratou tona whenua.
