American Standard Version ASV
1 haec sunt verba quae locutus est Moses ad omnem Israhel trans Iordanem in solitudine campestri contra mare Rubrum inter Pharan et Thophel et Laban et Aseroth ubi auri est plurimum
1
These are the words which Moses spake unto all Israel beyond the Jordan in the wilderness, in the Arabah over against Suph, between Paran, and Tophel, and Laban, and Hazeroth, and Di-zahab.
2 undecim diebus de Horeb per viam montis Seir usque Cadesbarne
2
It is eleven days' [journey] from Horeb by the way of mount Seir unto Kadesh-barnea.
3 quadragesimo anno undecimo mense prima die mensis locutus est Moses ad filios Israhel omnia quae praeceperat illi Dominus ut diceret eis
3
And it came to pass in the fortieth year, in the eleventh month, on the first day of the month, that Moses spake unto the children of Israel, according unto all that Jehovah had given him in commandment unto them;
4 postquam percussit Seon regem Amorreorum qui habitavit in Esebon et Og regem Basan qui mansit in Aseroth et in Edrai
4
after he had smitten Sihon the king of the Amorites, who dwelt in Heshbon, and Og the king of Bashan, who dwelt in Ashtaroth, at Edrei.
5 trans Iordanem in terra Moab coepitque Moses explanare legem et dicere
5
Beyond the Jordan, in the land of Moab, began Moses to declare this law, saying,
6 Dominus Deus noster locutus est ad nos in Horeb dicens sufficit vobis quod in hoc monte mansistis
6
Jehovah our God spake unto us in Horeb, saying, Ye have dwelt long enough in this mountain:
7 revertimini et venite ad montem Amorreorum et ad cetera quae ei proxima sunt campestria atque montana et humiliora loca contra meridiem et iuxta litus maris terram Chananeorum et Libani usque ad flumen magnum Eufraten
7
turn you, and take your journey, and go to the hill-country of the Amorites, and unto all [the places] nigh thereunto, in the Arabah, in the hill-country, and in the lowland, and in the South, and by the sea-shore, the land of the Canaanites, and Lebanon, as far as the great river, the river Euphrates.
8 en inquit tradidi vobis ingredimini et possidete eam super qua iuravit Dominus patribus vestris Abraham et Isaac et Iacob ut daret illam eis et semini eorum post eos
8
Behold, I have set the land before you: go in and possess the land which Jehovah sware unto your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give unto them and to their seed after them.
9 dixique vobis illo in tempore
9
And I spake unto you at that time, saying, I am not able to bear you myself alone:
10 non possum solus sustinere vos quia Dominus Deus vester multiplicavit vos et estis hodie sicut stellae caeli plurimae
10
Jehovah your God hath multiplied you, and, behold, ye are this day as the stars of heaven for multitude.
11 Dominus Deus patrum vestrorum addat ad hunc numerum multa milia et benedicat vobis sicut locutus est
11
Jehovah, the God of your fathers, make you a thousand times as many as ye are, and bless you, as he hath promised you!
12 non valeo solus vestra negotia sustinere et pondus ac iurgia
12
How can I myself alone bear your cumbrance, and your burden, and your strife?
13 date e vobis viros sapientes et gnaros et quorum conversatio sit probata in tribubus vestris ut ponam eos vobis principes
13
Take you wise men, and understanding, and known, according to your tribes, and I will make them heads over you.
14 tunc respondistis mihi bona res est quam vis facere
14
And ye answered me, and said, The thing which thou hast spoken is good [for us] to do.
15 tulique de tribubus vestris viros sapientes et nobiles et constitui eos principes tribunos et centuriones et quinquagenarios ac decanos qui docerent vos singula
15
So I took the heads of your tribes, wise men, and known, and made them heads over you, captains of thousands, and captains of hundreds, and captains of fifties, and captains of tens, and officers, according to your tribes.
16 praecepique eis dicens audite illos et quod iustum est iudicate sive civis sit ille sive peregrinus
16
And I charged your judges at that time, saying, Hear [the causes] between your brethren, and judge righteously between a man and his brother, and the sojourner that is with him.
17 nulla erit distantia personarum ita parvum audietis ut magnum nec accipietis cuiusquam personam quia Dei iudicium est quod si difficile vobis aliquid visum fuerit referte ad me et ego audiam
17
Ye shall not respect persons in judgment; ye shall hear the small and the great alike; ye shall not be afraid of the face of man; for the judgment is God's: and the cause that is too hard for you ye shall bring unto me, and I will hear it.
18 praecepique omnia quae facere deberetis
18
And I commanded you at that time all the things which ye should do.
19 profecti autem de Horeb transivimus per heremum terribilem et maximam quam vidistis per viam montis Amorrei sicut praeceperat Dominus Deus noster nobis cumque venissemus in Cadesbarne
19
And we journeyed from Horeb, and went through all that great and terrible wilderness which ye saw, by the way to the hill-country of the Amorites, as Jehovah our God commanded us; and we came to Kadesh-barnea.
20 dixi vobis venistis ad montem Amorrei quem Dominus Deus noster daturus est nobis
20
And I said unto you, Ye are come unto the hill-country of the Amorites, which Jehovah our God giveth unto us.
21 vide terram quam Dominus Deus tuus dat tibi ascende et posside eam sicut locutus est Dominus Deus patribus tuis noli metuere nec quicquam paveas
21
Behold, Jehovah thy God hath set the land before thee: go up, take possession, as Jehovah, the God of thy fathers, hath spoken unto thee; fear not, neither be dismayed.
22 et accessistis ad me omnes atque dixistis mittamus viros qui considerent terram et renuntient per quod iter debeamus ascendere et ad quas pergere civitates
22
And ye came near unto me every one of you, and said, Let us send men before us, that they may search the land for us, and bring us word again of the way by which we must go up, and the cities unto which we shall come.
23 cumque mihi sermo placuisset misi e vobis duodecim viros singulos de tribubus suis
23
And the thing pleased me well; and I took twelve men of you, one man for every tribe:
24 qui cum perrexissent et ascendissent in montana venerunt usque ad vallem Botri et considerata terra
24
and they turned and went up into the hill-country, and came unto the valley of Eshcol, and spied it out.
25 sumentes de fructibus eius ut ostenderent ubertatem adtulerunt ad nos atque dixerunt bona est terra quam Dominus Deus noster daturus est nobis
25
And they took of the fruit of the land in their hands, and brought it down unto us, and brought us word again, and said, It is a good land which Jehovah our God giveth unto us.
26 et noluistis ascendere sed increduli ad sermonem Domini Dei nostri
26
Yet ye would not go up, but rebelled against the commandment of Jehovah your God:
27 murmurati estis in tabernaculis vestris atque dixistis odit nos Dominus et idcirco eduxit nos de terra Aegypti ut traderet in manu Amorrei atque deleret
27
and ye murmured in your tents, and said, Because Jehovah hated us, he hath brought us forth out of the land of Egypt, to deliver us into the hand of the Amorites, to destroy us.
28 quo ascendemus nuntii terruerunt cor nostrum dicentes maxima multitudo est et nobis in statura procerior urbes magnae et ad caelum usque munitae filios Enacim vidimus ibi
28
Whither are we going up? our brethren have made our heart to melt, saying, The people are greater and taller than we; the cities are great and fortified up to heaven; and moreover we have seen the sons of the Anakim there.
29 et dixi vobis nolite metuere nec timeatis eos
29
Then I said unto you, Dread not, neither be afraid of them.
30 Dominus Deus qui ductor est vester pro vobis ipse pugnabit sicut fecit in Aegypto videntibus cunctis
30
Jehovah your God who goeth before you, he will fight for you, according to all that he did for you in Egypt before your eyes,
31 et in solitudine ipse vidisti portavit te Dominus Deus tuus ut solet homo gestare parvulum filium suum in omni via per quam ambulasti donec veniretis ad locum istum
31
and in the wilderness, where thou hast seen how that Jehovah thy God bare thee, as a man doth bear his son, in all the way that ye went, until ye came unto this place.
32 et nec sic quidem credidistis Domino Deo vestro
32
Yet in this thing ye did not believe Jehovah your God,
33 qui praecessit vos in via et metatus est locum in quo tentoria figere deberetis nocte ostendens vobis iter per ignem et die per columnam nubis
33
who went before you in the way, to seek you out a place to pitch your tents in, in fire by night, to show you by what way ye should go, and in the cloud by day.
34 cumque audisset Dominus vocem sermonum vestrorum iratus iuravit et ait
34
And Jehovah heard the voice of your words, and was wroth, and sware, saying,
35 non videbit quispiam de hominibus generationis huius pessimae terram bonam quam sub iuramento pollicitus sum patribus vestris
35
Surely there shall not one of these men of this evil generation see the good land, which I sware to give unto your fathers,
36 praeter Chaleb filium Iepphonne ipse enim videbit eam et ipsi dabo terram quam calcavit et filiis eius quia secutus est Dominum
36
save Caleb the son of Jephunneh: he shall see it; and to him will I give the land that he hath trodden upon, and to his children, because he hath wholly followed Jehovah.
37 nec miranda indignatio in populum cum mihi quoque iratus Dominus propter vos dixerit nec tu ingredieris illuc
37
Also Jehovah was angry with me for your sakes, saying, Thou also shalt not go in thither:
38 sed Iosue filius Nun minister tuus ipse intrabit pro te hunc exhortare et robora et ipse terram sorte dividat Israheli
38
Joshua the son of Nun, who standeth before thee, he shall go in thither: encourage thou him; for he shall cause Israel to inherit it.
39 parvuli vestri de quibus dixistis quod captivi ducerentur et filii qui hodie boni ac mali ignorant distantiam ipsi ingredientur et ipsis dabo terram et possidebunt eam
39
Moreover your little ones, that ye said should be a prey, and your children, that this day have no knowledge of good or evil, they shall go in thither, and unto them will I give it, and they shall possess it.
40 vos autem revertimini et abite in solitudinem per viam maris Rubri
40
But as for you, turn you, and take your journey into the wilderness by the way to the Red Sea.
41 et respondistis mihi peccavimus Domino ascendemus atque pugnabimus sicut praecepit Dominus Deus noster cumque instructi armis pergeretis in montem
41
Then ye answered and said unto me, We have sinned against Jehovah, we will go up and fight, according to all that Jehovah our God commanded us. And ye girded on every man his weapons of war, and were forward to go up into the hill-country.
42 ait mihi Dominus dic ad eos nolite ascendere neque pugnetis non enim sum vobiscum ne cadatis coram inimicis vestris
42
And Jehovah said unto me, Say unto them, Go not up, neither fight; for I am not among you; lest ye be smitten before your enemies.
43 locutus sum et non audistis sed adversantes imperio Domini et tumentes superbia ascendistis in montem
43
So I spake unto you, and ye hearkened not; but ye rebelled against the commandment of Jehovah, and were presumptuous, and went up into the hill-country.
44 itaque egressus Amorreus qui habitabat in montibus et obviam veniens persecutus est vos sicut solent apes persequi et cecidit de Seir usque Horma
44
And the Amorites, that dwelt in that hill-country, came out against you, and chased you, as bees do, and beat you down in Seir, even unto Hormah.
45 cumque reversi ploraretis coram Domino non audivit vos nec voci vestrae voluit adquiescere
45
And ye returned and wept before Jehovah; but Jehovah hearkened not to your voice, nor gave ear unto you.
46 sedistis ergo in Cadesbarne multo tempore
46
So ye abode in Kadesh many days, according unto the days that ye abode [there].
