The princes digged the well； the nobles of the people digged it； by the direction of the lawgiver； with their staves。 And from the wilderness they went to Mattanah：
21：19从玛他拿到拿哈列，从拿哈列到巴末，
And from Mattanah to Nahaliel： and from Nahaliel to Bamoth：
21：20从巴末到摩押地的谷，又到那下望旷野之毗斯迦的山顶。
And from Bamoth in the valley； that is in the country of Moab； to the top of Pisgah； which looketh toward Jeshimon。
21：21以色列人差遣使者去见亚摩利人的王西宏，说，
And Israel sent messengers unto Sihon king of the Amorites； saying；
21：22求你容我们从你的地经过。我们不偏入田间和葡萄园，也不喝井里的水，只走大道（原文作王道），直到过了你的境界。
Let 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 well： but we will go along by the king's high way； until we be past thy borders。
21：23西宏不容以色列人从他的境界经过，就招聚他的众民出到旷野，要攻击以色列人，到了雅杂与以色列人争战。
And Sihon would not suffer Israel to pass through his border： but Sihon gathered all his people together； and went out against Israel into the wilderness： and he came to Jahaz； and fought against Israel。
21：24以色列人用刀杀了他，得了他的地，从亚嫩河到雅博河，直到亚扪人的境界，因为亚扪人的境界多有坚垒。
And Israel smote him with the edge of the sword； and possessed his land from Arnon unto Jabbok； even unto the children of Ammon： for the border of the children of Ammon was strong。
21：25以色列人夺取这一切的城邑，也住亚摩利人的城邑，就是希实本与希实本的一切乡村。
And Israel took all these cities： and Israel dwelt in all the cities of the Amorites； in Heshbon； and in all the villages thereof。
21：26这希实本是亚摩利王西宏的京城。西宏曾与摩押的先王争战，从他手中夺取了全地，直到亚嫩河。
For Heshbon was the city of Sihon the king of the Amorites； who had fought against the former king of Moab； and taken all his land out of his hand； even unto Arnon。
21：27所以那些作诗歌的说，你们来到希实本。愿西宏的城被修造，被建立。
Wherefore they that speak in proverbs say； e into Heshbon； let the city of Sihon be built and prepared：
21：28因为有火从希实本发出，有火焰出于西宏的城，烧尽摩押的亚珥和亚嫩河邱坛的祭司（祭司原文作主）。
For there is a fire gone out of Heshbon； a flame from the city of Sihon： it hath consumed Ar of Moab； and the lords of the high places of Arnon。
21：29摩押阿，你有祸了。基抹的民哪，你们灭亡了。基抹的男子逃奔，女子被掳，交付亚摩利的王西宏。
Woe to thee； Moab！ thou art undone； O people of Chemosh： he hath given his sons that escaped； and his daughters； into captivity unto Sihon king of the Amorites。
21：30我们射了他们。希实本直到底本尽皆毁灭。我们使地变成荒场，直到挪法。这挪法直延到米底巴。
We have shot at them； Heshbon is perished even unto Dibon； and we have laid them waste even unto Nophah； which reacheth unto Medeba。
21：31这样，以色列人就住在亚摩利人之地。
Thus Israel dwelt in the land of the Amorites。
21：32摩西打发人去窥探雅谢，以色列人就占了雅谢的镇市，赶出那里的亚摩利人。
And Moses sent to spy out Jaazer； and they took the villages thereof； and drove out the Amorites that were there。
21：33以色列人转回，向巴珊去。巴珊王噩和他的众民都出来，在以得来与他们交战。
And 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。
21：34耶和华对摩西说，不要怕他。因我已将他和他的众民，并他的地，都交在你手中。你要待他像从前待住希实本的亚摩利王西宏一般。
And 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； which dwelt at Heshbon。
21：35于是他们杀了他和他的众子，并他的众民，没有留下一个，就得了他的地。
So they smote him； and his sons； and all his people； until there was none left him alive： and they possessed his land。
旧约 民数记（Numbers） 第 22 章 （ 本篇共有 36 章 ） 7上一章 下一章8 目录
22：1以色列人起行，在摩押平原，约旦河东，对着耶利哥安营。
And the children of Israel set forward； and pitched in the plains of Moab on this side Jordan by Jericho。
22：2以色列人向亚摩利人所行的一切事，西拨的儿子巴勒都看见了。
And Balak the son of Zippor saw all that Israel had done to the Amorites。
22：3摩押人因以色列民甚多，就大大惧怕，心内忧急，
And Moab was sore afraid of the people； because they were many： and Moab was distressed because of the children of Israel。
22：4对米甸的长老说，现在这众人要把我们四围所有的一概舔尽，就如牛舔尽田间的草一般。那时西拨的儿子巴勒作摩押王。
And Moab said unto the elders of Midian； Now shall this pany lick up all that are round about us； as the ox licketh up the grass of the field。 And Balak the son of Zippor was king of the Moabites at that time。
22：5他差遣使者往大河边的毗夺去，到比珥的儿子巴兰本乡那里，召巴兰来，说，有一宗民从埃及出来，遮满地面，与我对居。
He sent messengers therefore unto Balaam the son of Beor to Pethor； which is by the river of the land of the children of his people； to call him； saying； Behold； there is a people e out from Egypt： behold； they cover the face of the earth； and they abide over against me：
22：6这民比我强盛，现在求你来为我咒诅他们，或者我能得胜，攻打他们，赶出此地。因为我知道，你为谁祝福，谁就得福。你咒诅谁，谁就受咒诅。
e now therefore； I pray thee； curse me this people； for they are too mighty for me： peradventure I shall prevail； that we may smite them； and that I may drive them out of the land： for I wot that he whom thou blessest is blessed； and he whom thou cursest is cursed。
22：7摩押的长老和米甸的长老手里拿着卦金，到了巴兰那里，将巴勒的话都告诉了他。
And the elders of Moab and the elders of Midian departed with the rewards of divination in their hand； and they came unto Balaam； and spake unto him the words of Balak。
22：8巴兰说，你们今夜在这里住宿，我必照耶和华所晓谕我的回报你们。摩押的使臣就在巴兰那里住下了。
And he said unto them； Lodge here this night； and I will bring you word again； as the LORD shall speak unto me： and the princes of Moab abode with Balaam。
22：9神临到巴兰那里，说，在你这里的人都是谁，
And God came unto Balaam； and said； What men are these with thee？
22：10巴兰回答说，是摩押王西拨的儿子巴勒打发人到我这里来，说，
And Balaam said unto God； Balak the son of Zippor； king of Moab； hath sent unto me； saying；
22：11从埃及出来的民遮满地面，你来为我咒诅他们，或者我能与他们争战，把他们赶出去。
Behold； there is a people e out of Egypt； which covereth the face of the earth： e now； curse me them； peradventure I shall be able to overe them； and drive them out。
22：12神对巴兰说，你不可同他们去，也不可咒诅那民，因为那民是蒙福的。
And God said unto Balaam； Thou shalt not go with them； thou shalt not curse the people： for they are blessed。
22：13巴兰早晨起来，对巴勒的使臣说，你们回本地去吧，因为耶和华不容我和你们同去。
And Balaam rose up in the morning； and said unto the princes of Balak； Get you into your land： for the LORD refuseth to give me leave to go with you。
22：14摩押的使臣就起来，回巴勒那里去，说，巴兰不肯和我们同来。
And the princes of Moab rose up； and they went unto Balak； and said； Balaam refuseth to e with us。
22：15巴勒又差遣使臣，比先前的又多又尊贵。
And Balak sent yet again princes； more； and more honourable than they。
22：16他们到了巴兰那里，对他说，西拨的儿子巴勒这样说，求你不容什么事拦阻你不到我这里来，
And they came to Balaam； and said to him； Thus saith Balak the son of Zippor； Let nothing； I pray thee； hinder thee from ing unto me：
22：17因为我必使你得极大的尊荣。你向我要什么，我就给你什么。只求你来为我咒诅这民。
For I will promote thee unto very great honour； and I will do whatsoever thou sayest unto me： e therefore； I pray thee； curse me this people。
22：18巴兰回答巴勒的臣仆说，巴勒就是将他满屋的金银给我，我行大事小事也不得越过耶和华我神的命。
And Balaam answered and said unto the servants of Balak； If Balak would give me his house full of silver and gold； I cannot go beyond the word of the LORD my God； to do less or more。
22：19现在我请你们今夜在这里住宿，等我得知耶和华还要对我说什么。
Now therefore； I pray you； tarry ye also here this night； that I may know what the LORD will say unto me more。
22：20当夜，神临到巴兰那里，说，这些人若来召你，你就起来同他们去，你只要遵行我对你所说的话。
And God came unto Balaam at night； and said unto him； If the men e to call thee； rise up； and go with them； but yet the word which I shall say unto thee； that shalt thou do。
22：21巴兰早晨起来，备上驴，和摩押的使臣一同去了。
And Balaam rose up in the morning； and saddled his ass； and went with the princes of Moab。
22：22神因他去就发了怒。耶和华的使者站在路上敌挡他。他骑着驴，有两个仆人跟随他。
And God's anger was kindled because he went： and the angel of the LORD stood in the way for an adversary against him。 Now he was riding upon his ass； and his two servants were with him。
22：23驴看见耶和华的使者站在路上，手里有拔出来的刀，就从路上跨进田间，巴兰便打驴，要叫它回转上路。
And the ass saw the angel of the LORD standing in the way； and his sword drawn in his hand： and the ass turned aside out of the way； and went into the field： and Balaam smote the ass； to turn her into the way。
22：24耶和华的使者就站在葡萄园的窄路上。这边有墙，那边也有墙。
But the angel of the LORD stood in a path of the vineyards； a wall being on this side； and a wall
