Deuteronomy 2

profectique inde venimus in solitudinem quae ducit ad mare Rubrum sicut mihi dixerat Dominus et circumivimus montem Seir longo tempore

Then we turned, and took our journey into the wilderness by the way of the Red sea, as the LORD spake unto me: and we compassed mount Seir many days.

dixitque Dominus ad me

And the LORD spake unto me, saying,

sufficit vobis circumire montem istum ite contra aquilonem

Ye have compassed this mountain long enough: turn you northward.

et populo praecipe dicens transibitis per terminos fratrum vestrorum filiorum Esau qui habitant in Seir et timebunt vos

And command thou the people, saying, Ye are to pass through the coast of your brethren the children of Esau, which dwell in Seir; and they shall be afraid of you: take ye good heed unto yourselves therefore:

videte ergo diligenter ne moveamini contra eos neque enim dabo vobis de terra eorum quantum potest unius pedis calcare vestigium quia in possessionem Esau dedi montem Seir

Meddle not with them; for I will not give you of their land, no, not so much as a foot breadth; because I have given mount Seir unto Esau for a possession.

cibos emetis ab eis pecunia et comedetis aquam emptam haurietis et bibetis

Ye shall buy meat of them for money, that ye may eat; and ye shall also buy water of them for money, that ye may drink.

Dominus Deus tuus benedixit tibi in omni opere manuum tuarum novit iter tuum quomodo transieris solitudinem hanc magnam per quadraginta annos habitans tecum Dominus Deus tuus et nihil tibi defuit

For the LORD thy God hath blessed thee in all the works of thy hand: he knoweth thy walking through this great wilderness: these forty years the LORD thy God hath been with thee; thou hast lacked nothing.

cumque transissemus fratres nostros filios Esau qui habitabant in Seir per viam campestrem de Helath et de Asiongaber venimus ad iter quod ducit in desertum Moab

And when we passed by from our brethren the children of Esau, which dwelt in Seir, through the way of the plain from Elath, and from Ezion–gaber, we turned and passed by the way of the wilderness of Moab.

dixitque Dominus ad me non pugnes contra Moabitas nec ineas adversum eos proelium non enim dabo tibi quicquam de terra eorum quia filiis Loth tradidi Ar in possessionem

And the LORD said unto me, Distress not the Moabites, neither contend with them in battle: for I will not give thee of their land for a possession; because I have given Ar unto the children of Lot for a possession.

Emim primi fuerunt habitatores eius populus magnus et validus et tam excelsus ut de Enacim stirpe

The Emims dwelt therein in times past, a people great, and many, and tall, as the Anakims;

quasi gigantes crederentur et essent similes filiorum Enacim denique Moabitae appellant eos Emim

Which also were accounted giants, as the Anakims; but the Moabites call them Emims.

in Seir autem prius habitaverunt Horim quibus expulsis atque deletis habitaverunt filii Esau sicut fecit Israhel in terra possessionis suae quam dedit ei Dominus

The Horims also dwelt in Seir beforetime; but the children of Esau succeeded them, when they had destroyed them from before them, and dwelt in their stead; as Israel did unto the land of his possession, which the LORD gave unto them.

surgentes ergo ut transiremus torrentem Zared venimus ad eum

Now rise up, said I, and get you over the brook Zered. And we went over the brook Zered.

tempus autem quo ambulavimus de Cadesbarne usque ad transitum torrentis Zared triginta octo annorum fuit donec consumeretur omnis generatio hominum bellatorum de castris sicut iuraverat Dominus

And the space in which we came from Kadesh–barnea, until we were come over the brook Zered, was thirty and eight years; until all the generation of the men of war were wasted out from among the host, as the LORD sware unto them.

cuius manus fuit adversum eos ut interirent de castrorum medio

For indeed the hand of the LORD was against them, to destroy them from among the host, until they were consumed.

postquam autem universi ceciderunt pugnatores

So it came to pass, when all the men of war were consumed and dead from among the people,

locutus est Dominus ad me dicens

That the LORD spake unto me, saying,

tu transibis hodie terminos Moab urbem nomine Ar

Thou art to pass over through Ar, the coast of Moab, this day:

et accedens in vicina filiorum Ammon cave ne pugnes contra eos nec movearis ad proelium non enim dabo tibi de terra filiorum Ammon quia filiis Loth dedi eam in possessionem

And when thou comest nigh over against the children of Ammon, distress them not, nor meddle with them: for I will not give thee of the land of the children of Ammon any possession; because I have given it unto the children of Lot for a possession.

terra gigantum reputata est et in ipsa olim habitaverunt gigantes quos Ammanitae vocant Zomzommim

(That also was accounted a land of giants: giants dwelt therein in old time; and the Ammonites call them Zamzummims;

populus magnus et multus et procerae longitudinis sicut Enacim quos delevit Dominus a facie eorum et fecit illos habitare pro eis

A people great, and many, and tall, as the Anakims; but the LORD destroyed them before them; and they succeeded them, and dwelt in their stead:

sicut fecerat filiis Esau qui habitant in Seir delens Horreos et terram eorum illis tradens quam possident usque in praesens

As he did to the children of Esau, which dwelt in Seir, when he destroyed the Horims from before them; and they succeeded them, and dwelt in their stead even unto this day:

Eveos quoque qui habitabant in Aserim usque Gazam Cappadoces expulerunt qui egressi de Cappadocia deleverunt eos et habitaverunt pro illis

And the Avims which dwelt in Hazerim, even unto Azzah, the Caphtorims, which came forth out of Caphtor, destroyed them, and dwelt in their stead.)

surgite et transite torrentem Arnon ecce tradidi in manu tua Seon regem Esebon Amorreum et terram eius incipe possidere et committe adversum eum proelium

Rise ye up, take your journey, and pass over the river Arnon: behold, I have given into thine hand Sihon the Amorite, king of Heshbon, and his land: begin to possess it, and contend with him in battle.

hodie incipiam mittere terrorem atque formidinem tuam in populos qui habitant sub omni caelo ut audito nomine tuo paveant et in morem parturientium contremescant et dolore teneantur

This day will I begin to put the dread of thee and the fear of thee upon the nations that are under the whole heaven, who shall hear report of thee, and shall tremble, and be in anguish because of thee.

misi ergo nuntios de solitudine Cademoth ad Seon regem Esebon verbis pacificis dicens

And I sent messengers out of the wilderness of Kedemoth unto Sihon king of Heshbon with words of peace, saying,

transibimus per terram tuam publica gradiemur via non declinabimus neque ad dextram neque ad sinistram

Let me pass through thy land: I will go along by the high way, I will neither turn unto the right hand nor to the left.

alimenta pretio vende nobis ut vescamur aquam pecunia tribue et sic bibemus tantum est ut nobis concedas transitum

Thou shalt sell me meat for money, that I may eat; and give me water for money, that I may drink: only I will pass through on my feet;

sicut fecerunt filii Esau qui habitant in Seir et Moabitae qui morantur in Ar donec veniamus ad Iordanem et transeamus in terram quam Dominus Deus noster daturus est nobis

(As the children of Esau which dwell in Seir, and the Moabites which dwell in Ar, did unto me;) until I shall pass over Jordan into the land which the LORD our God giveth us.

noluitque Seon rex Esebon dare nobis transitum quia induraverat Dominus Deus tuus spiritum eius et obfirmaverat cor illius ut traderetur in manus tuas sicut nunc vides

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

dixitque Dominus ad me ecce coepi tradere tibi Seon et terram eius incipe possidere eam

And the LORD said unto me, Behold, I have begun to give Sihon and his land before thee: begin to possess, that thou mayest inherit his land.

egressusque est Seon obviam nobis cum omni populo suo ad proelium in Iesa

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

et tradidit eum Dominus Deus noster nobis percussimusque eum cum filiis et omni populo suo

And the LORD our God delivered him before us; and we smote him, and his sons, and all his people.

cunctasque urbes in tempore illo cepimus interfectis habitatoribus earum viris ac mulieribus et parvulis non reliquimus in eis quicquam

And we took all his cities at that time, and utterly destroyed the men, and the women, and the little ones, of every city, we left none to remain:

absque iumentis quae in partem venere praedantium et spoliis urbium quas cepimus

Only the cattle we took for a prey unto ourselves, and the spoil of the cities which we took.

ab Aroer quae est super ripam torrentis Arnon oppido quod in valle situm est usque Galaad non fuit vicus et civitas quae nostras effugeret manus omnes tradidit Dominus Deus noster nobis

From Aroer, which is by the brink of the river of Arnon, and from the city that is by the river, even unto Gilead, there was not one city too strong for us: the LORD our God delivered all unto us:

absque terra filiorum Ammon ad quam non accessimus et cunctis quae adiacent torrenti Ieboc et urbibus montanis universisque locis a quibus nos prohibuit Dominus Deus noster

Only unto the land of the children of Ammon thou camest not, nor unto any place of the river Jabbok, nor unto the cities in the mountains, nor unto whatsoever the LORD our God forbad us.
