Numbers 21
Commentary from 6 fathers
And Arad the Chananitish king who dwelt by the wilderness, heard that Israel came by the way of Atharin; and he made war on Israel, and carried off some of them captives.
ΚΑΙ ἤκουσεν ὁ Χανανεὶς βασιλεὺς ᾿Αρὰδ ὁ κατοικῶν κατὰ τὴν ἔρημον, ὅτι ἦλθεν ᾿Ισραὴλ ὁδὸν ᾿Αθαρείν, καὶ ἐπολέμησε πρὸς ᾿Ισραὴλ καὶ καταπροενόμευσεν ἐξ αὐτῶν αἰχμαλωσίαν.
И҆ ᲂу҆слы́ша ханане́й ца́рь а҆ра́дскїй живы́й при пꙋсты́ни, ꙗ҆́кѡ прїи́де і҆и҃ль пꙋте́мъ а҆ѳарі́мскимъ, и҆ ра́това проти́вꙋ і҆и҃лѧ, и҆ взѧ̀ ѿ ни́хъ плѣ́нъ.
And Israel vowed a vow to the Lord, and said, If thou wilt deliver this people into my power, I will devote it and its cities [to thee].
καὶ ηὔξατο ᾿Ισραὴλ εὐχὴν Κυρίῳ καὶ εἶπεν· ἐάν μοι παραδῷς τὸν λαὸν τοῦτον ὑποχείριον, ἀναθεματιῶ αὐτὸν καὶ τὰς πόλεις αὐτοῦ.
И҆ ѡ҆бѣща́сѧ і҆и҃ль ѡ҆бѣ́томъ гдⷭ҇ꙋ и҆ речѐ: а҆́ще мнѣ̀ преда́си лю́ди сїѧ̑ подрꙋ̑чны, погꙋблю̀ и҆̀хъ и҆ гра́ды и҆́хъ.
And the Lord hearkened to the voice of Israel, and delivered the Chananite into his power; and [Israel] devoted him and his cities, and they called the name of that place Anathema.
καὶ εἰσήκουσε Κύριος τῆς φωνῆς ᾿Ισραὴλ καὶ παρέδωκε τὸν Χανανεὶν ὑποχείριον αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἀνεθεμάτισεν αὐτὸν καὶ τὰς πόλεις αὐτοῦ· καὶ ἐπεκάλεσαν τὸ ὄνομα τοῦ τόπου ἐκείνου ᾿Ανάθεμα.
И҆ ᲂу҆слы́ша гдⷭ҇ь гла́съ і҆и҃левъ и҆ предадѐ ханане́а подрꙋ́чна є҆мꙋ̀: и҆ ѡ҆пꙋстошѝ є҆го̀ и҆ гра́ды є҆гѡ̀, и҆ прозва̀ и҆́мѧ мѣ́стꙋ томꙋ̀ запꙋстѣ́нїе.
And having departed from mount Or by the way [leading] to the Red Sea, they compassed the land of Edom, and the people lost courage by the way.
Καὶ ἀπάραντες ἐξ ῍Ωρ τοῦ ὄρους ὁδὸν ἐπὶ θάλασσαν ἐρυθρὰν περιεκύκλωσαν γῆν ᾿Εδώμ· καὶ ὠλιγοψύχησεν ὁ λαὸς ἐν τῇ ὁδῷ.
И҆ воздви́гшесѧ ѿ ѡ҆́ра горы̀ пꙋте́мъ и҆́же къ мо́рю чермно́мꙋ, ѡ҆быдо́ша зе́млю є҆дѡ́млю: и҆ малодꙋ́шествоваша лю́дїе на пꙋтѝ,
And the people spoke against God and against Moses, saying, Why is this? Hast thou brought us out of Egypt to slay us in the wilderness? for there is not bread nor water; and our soul loathes this light bread.
καὶ κατελάλει ὁ λαὸς πρὸς τὸν Θεὸν καὶ κατὰ Μωυσῆ λέγοντες· ἱνατί τοῦτο; ἐξήγαγες ἡμᾶς ἐξ Αἰγύπτου, ἀποκτεῖναι ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ; ὅτι οὐκ ἔστιν ἄρτος οὐδὲ ὕδωρ, ἡ δὲ ψυχὴ ἡμῶν προσώχθισεν ἐν τῷ ἄρτῳ τῷ διακένῳ τούτῳ.
и҆ ропта́хꙋ лю́дїе на бг҃а и҆ на мѡѷсе́а, глаго́люще: вскꙋ́ю и҆зве́лъ є҆сѝ ны̀ и҆з̾ є҆гѵ́пта ᲂу҆би́ти на́съ въ пꙋсты́ни, ꙗ҆́кѡ нѣ́сть хлѣ́ба, ни воды̀; и҆ дꙋша̀ на́ша негодꙋ́етъ ѡ҆ хлѣ́бѣ се́мъ тще́мъ.
And the people came to Moses and said, We have sinned, for we have spoken against the Lord, and against thee: pray therefore to the Lord, and let him take away the serpent from us. And Moses prayed to the Lord for the people;
καὶ παραγενόμενος ὁ λαὸς πρὸς Μωυσῆν ἔλεγον· ὅτι ἡμάρτομεν, ὅτι κατελαλήσαμεν κατὰ τοῦ Κυρίου καὶ κατὰ σοῦ· εὖξαι οὖν πρὸς Κύριον, καὶ ἀφελέτω ἀφ’ ἡμῶν τὸν ὄφιν. καὶ ηὔξατο Μωυσῆς πρὸς Κύριον περὶ τοῦ λαοῦ.
И҆ прише́дше лю́дїе къ мѡѷсе́ови глаго́лаша: согрѣши́хомъ, ꙗ҆́кѡ ропта́хомъ на гдⷭ҇а и҆ на тѧ̀: помоли́сѧ ᲂу҆̀бо ко гдⷭ҇ꙋ, да ѿжене́тъ ѿ на́съ ѕмїи̑. И҆ помоли́сѧ мѡѷсе́й ко гдⷭ҇ꙋ ѡ҆ лю́дехъ.
and the Lord said to Moses, Make thee a serpent, and put it on a signal-[staff]; and it shall come to pass that whenever a serpent shall bite a man, every one [so] bitten that looks upon it shall live.
καὶ εἶπε Κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν· ποίησον σεαυτῷ ὄφιν καὶ θὲς αὐτὸν ἐπὶ σημείου, καὶ ἔσται ἐὰν δάκῃ ὄφις ἄνθρωπον, πᾶς ὁ δεδηγμένος ἰδὼν αὐτὸν ζήσεται.
И҆ речѐ гдⷭ҇ь къ мѡѷсе́ю: сотворѝ себѣ̀ ѕмїю̀ (мѣ́дѧнꙋ) и҆ положѝ ю҆̀ на зна́мѧ: и҆ бꙋ́детъ а҆́ще ᲂу҆грызе́тъ ѕмїѧ̀ человѣ́ка, всѧ́къ ᲂу҆грызе́нный ви́дѣвъ ю҆̀ жи́въ бꙋ́детъ.
8–9Many things were done in figure which were done in former times. For when he said that the fathers who were bitten by serpents in the desert could not be healed in any other way except that Moses hung up a brazen serpent, and when this was seen, those deadly bites and injurious effects of the poison were cured, he added: But these things were done in figure to instruct us (1 Corinthians 10:6). In the image, a bronze serpent was placed on a cross; because the true one to be crucified was announced to the human race, who would empty the venom of the devilish serpent, cursed in its image, but in truth, would erase all curses of the world.
Apology for the Prophet David, Chapter III
And Moses made a serpent of brass, and put it upon a signal-[staff]: and it came to pass that whenever a serpent bit a man, and he looked on the brazen serpent, he lived.
καὶ ἐποίησε Μωυσῆς ὄφιν χαλκοῦν καὶ ἔστησεν αὐτὸν ἐπὶ σημείου, καὶ ἐγένετο ὅταν ἔδακνεν ὄφις ἄνθρωπον, καὶ ἐπέβλεψεν ἐπὶ τὸν ὄφιν τὸν χαλκοῦν καὶ ἔζη.
И҆ сотворѝ мѡѷсе́й ѕмїю̀ мѣ́дѧнꙋ и҆ поста́ви ю҆̀ на зна́мени: и҆ бы́сть є҆гда̀ ᲂу҆грыза́ше ѕмїѧ̀ человѣ́ка, и҆ взира́ше на ѕмїю̀ мѣ́дѧнꙋ, и҆ ѡ҆жива́ше.
For tell me, was it not God who commanded by Moses that no image or likeness of anything which was in heaven above or which was on the earth should be made, and yet who caused the brazen serpent to be made by Moses in the wilderness, and set it up for a sign by which those bitten by serpents were saved? Yet is He free from unrighteousness. For by this, as I previously remarked, He proclaimed the mystery, by which He declared that He would break the power of the serpent which occasioned the transgression of Adam, and [would bring] to them that believe on Him [who was foreshadowed] by this sign, i.e., Him who was to be crucified, salvation from the fangs of the serpent, which are wicked deeds, idolatries, and other unrighteous acts.
Dialogue with Trypho, Chapter XCIV
The serpent struck Adam in paradise and killed him. [It also struck] Israel in the camp and annihilated them. “Just as Moses lifted up the serpent in the desert, the Son of Man will be lifted up.” Just as those who looked with bodily eyes at the sign which Moses fastened on the cross lived bodily, so too those who look with spiritual eyes at the body of the Messiah nailed and suspended on the cross and believe in him will live [spiritually]. Thus it was revealed through this brazen [serpent], which by nature cannot suffer, that he who was to suffer on the cross is one who by nature cannot die.
Commentary on Tatian’s Diatessaron 16:15
That brazen serpent was hung up as a remedy for the biting serpents, not as a type of him that suffered for us but as a contrast. It saved those that looked upon it, not because they believed it to live but because it was killed, and killed with it were the powers that were subject to it, being destroyed as it deserved. And what is the fitting epitaph for it from us? “O death, where is your sting? O grave, where is your victory?” You are overthrown by the cross. You are slain by him who is the giver of life. You are without breath, dead, without motion, even though you keep the form of a serpent lifted up high on a pole.
Oration 45.22
To be made whole of a serpent is a great sacrament. What is it to be made whole of a serpent by looking upon a serpent? It is to be made whole of death by believing in one dead. And nevertheless Moses feared and fled. What is it that Moses fled from that serpent? What, brethren, save that which we know to have been done in the gospel? Christ died, and the disciples feared and withdrew from that hope wherein they had been.
Explanation of the Psalms 74:4
And the children of Israel departed, and encamped in Oboth.
Καὶ ἀπῇραν οἱ υἱοὶ ᾿Ισραὴλ καὶ παρενέβαλον ἐν ᾿Ωβώθ.
И҆ воздвиго́шасѧ сы́нове і҆и҃лєвы, и҆ ѡ҆полчи́шасѧ во ѡ҆вѡ́ѳѣ:
And having departed from Oboth, they encamped in Achalgai, on the farther side in the wilderness, which is opposite Moab, toward the east.
καὶ ἐξάραντες ἐξ ᾿Ωβώθ, καὶ παρενέβαλον ἐν ᾿Αχαλγαὶ ἐκ τοῦ πέραν ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ, ἥ ἐστι κατὰ πρόσωπον Μωάβ, κατ’ ἀνατολὰς ἡλίου.
и҆ воздви́гшесѧ ѿ ѡ҆вѡ́ѳа, ѡ҆полчи́шасѧ во а҆халге́и ѡ҆б̾ ѻ҆нꙋ̀ странꙋ̀ пꙋсты́ни, ꙗ҆́же є҆́сть пред̾ лице́мъ мѡаві́тскимъ, на восто́къ со́лнца:
And thence they departed, and encamped in the valley of Zared.
καὶ ἐκεῖθεν ἀπῇραν καὶ παρενέβαλον εἰς φάραγγα Ζαρέδ.
и҆ ѿтꙋ́дꙋ воздвиго́шасѧ, и҆ ѡ҆полчи́шасѧ въ де́бри заре́дъ:
And they departed thence and encamped on the other side of Arnon in the wilderness, [the country] which extends from the coasts of the Amorites; for Arnon is the borders of Moab, between Moab and the Amorites.
καὶ ἐκεῖθεν ἀπάραντες παρενέβαλον εἰς τὸ πέραν ᾿Αρνῶν ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ, τὸ ἐξέχον ἀπὸ τῶν ὁρίων τῶν ᾿Αμορραίων· ἔστι γὰρ ᾿Αρνῶν ὅρια Μωὰβ ἀνὰ μέσον Μωὰβ καὶ ἀνὰ μέσον τοῦ ᾿Αμορραίου.
и҆ ѿтꙋ́дꙋ воздви́гшесѧ, ѡ҆полчи́шасѧ ѡ҆б̾ ѻ҆нꙋ̀ странꙋ̀ а҆рнѡ́на въ пꙋсты́ни, ꙗ҆́же и҆схо́дитъ ѿ предѣ̑лъ а҆морре́йскихъ: є҆́сть бо а҆рнѡ́нъ предѣ́лъ мѡа́вль междꙋ̀ мѡа́вомъ и҆ междꙋ̀ а҆морре́омъ.
Therefore it is said in a book, A war of the Lord has set on fire Zoob, and the brooks of Arnon.
διὰ τοῦτο λέγεται ἐν βιβλίῳ· πόλεμος τοῦ Κυρίου τὴν Ζωὸβ ἐφλόγιζε, καὶ τοὺς χειμάρρους ᾿Αρνῶν,
Сегѡ̀ ра́ди глаго́летсѧ въ кни́зѣ бра́нь гдⷭ҇нѧ: зѡо́вꙋ попалѝ, и҆ пото́ки а҆рнѡ̑ни,
And he has appointed brooks to cause Er to dwell [there]; and it lies near to the coasts of Moab.
καὶ τοὺς χειμάρρους κατέστησε κατοικίσαι ῎Ηρ, καὶ πρόσκειται τοῖς ὁρίοις Μωάβ.
и҆ пото́ки ᲂу҆стро́и въ селе́нїе и҆́ръ, и҆ прилежи́тъ предѣ́лѡмъ мѡа̑влимъ.
And thence [they came to] the well; this [is] the well of which the Lord said to Moses, Gather the people, and I will give them water to drink.
καὶ ἐκεῖθεν τὸ φρέαρ· τοῦτο τὸ φρέαρ, ὃ εἶπε Κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν· συνάγαγε τὸν λαόν, καὶ δώσω αὐτοῖς ὕδωρ πιεῖν.
И҆ ѿтꙋ́дꙋ (воздвиго́шасѧ) ко кла́дѧзю: се́й є҆́сть кла́дѧзь, ѡ҆ не́мже речѐ гдⷭ҇ь къ мѡѷсе́ю: соберѝ лю́ди, и҆ да́мъ и҆̀мъ во́дꙋ пи́ти.
Then Israel sang this song at the well, Begin [to sing] of the well;
τότε ᾖσεν ᾿Ισραὴλ τὸ ᾆσμα τοῦτο ἐπὶ τοῦ φρέατος· ἐξάρχετε αὐτῷ· φρέαρ,
Тогда̀ воспѣ̀ і҆и҃ль пѣ́снь сїю̀ ᲂу҆ кла́дѧзѧ: начина́йте є҆мꙋ̀:
the princes digged it, the kings of the nations in their kingdom, in their lordship sank it in the rock: and [they went] from the well to Manthanain,
ὤρυξαν αὐτὸ ἄρχοντες, ἐξελατόμησαν αὐτὸ βασιλεῖς ἐθνῶν ἐν τῇ βασιλείᾳ αὐτῶν, ἐν τῷ κυριεῦσαι αὐτῶν. καὶ ἀπὸ φρέατος εἰς Μανθαναείν·
кла́дѧзь, и҆скопа́ша є҆го̀ кнѧ̑зи, и҆зсѣко́ша є҆го̀ ца́рїе ꙗ҆зы́честїи во ца́рствїи и҆́хъ, внегда̀ ѡ҆блада́ти и҆́ми. И҆ ѿ кла́дѧзѧ (воздвиго́шасѧ) въ манѳанаі́лъ:
and from Manthanain to Naaliel, and from Naaliel to Bamoth, and from Bamoth to Janen, which is in the plain of Moab [as seen] from the top of the quarried [rock] that looks toward the wilderness.
καὶ ἀπὸ Μανθαναεὶν εἰς Νααλιήλ· καὶ ἀπὸ Νααλιὴλ εἰς Βαμώθ· καὶ ἀπὸ Βαμὼθ εἰς ᾿Ιανήν, ἥ ἐστιν ἐν τῷ πεδίῳ Μωὰβ ἀπὸ κορυφῆς τοῦ λελαξευμένου τὸ βλέπον κατὰ πρόσωπον τῆς ἐρήμου.
и҆ ѿ манѳанаі́ла въ наадїи́лъ, и҆ ѿ наадїи́ла въ вамѡ́ѳъ:
And Moses sent ambassadors to Seon king of the Amorites, with peaceable words, saying,
Καὶ ἀπέστειλε Μωυσῆς πρέσβεις πρὸς Σηὼν βασιλέα ᾿Αμορραίων λόγοις εἰρηνικοῖς λέγων·
и҆ ѿ вамѡ́ѳа въ на́пинъ, и҆́же є҆́сть на по́ли мѡа́вли, ѿ верха̀ и҆зсѣ́ченагѡ, зрѧ́щагѡ пред̾ лицѐ пꙋсты́ни.
We will pass through thy land, we will go by the road; we will not turn aside to the field or to the vineyard.
παρελευσόμεθα διὰ τῆς γῆς σου· τῇ ὁδῷ πορευσόμεθα, οὐκ ἐκκλινοῦμεν οὔτε εἰς ἀγρὸν οὔτε εἰς ἀμπελῶνα,
И҆ посла̀ мѡѷсе́й послы̀ къ сиѡ́нꙋ царю̀ а҆морре́йскꙋ, словесы̀ ми́рными глаго́лѧ:
We will not drink water out of thy well; we will go by the king’s highway, until we have past thy boundaries.
οὐ πιόμεθα ὕδωρ ἐκ φρέατός σου· ὁδῷ βασιλικῇ πορευσόμεθα, ἕως παρέλθωμεν τὰ ὅριά σου.
да про́йдемъ сквозѣ̀ зе́млю твою̀, пꙋте́мъ по́йдемъ: не ᲂу҆клони́мсѧ ни на се́ла, ни на вїногра́ды, не и҆спїе́мъ воды̀ ѿ кла̑дѧзь твои́хъ: пꙋте́мъ ца́рскимъ по́йдемъ, до́ндеже про́йдемъ предѣ́лы твоѧ̑.
And Seon did not allow Israel to pass through his borders, and Seon gathered all his people, and went out to set the battle in array against Israel into the wilderness; and he came to Jassa, and set the battle in array against Israel.
καὶ οὐκ ἔδωκε Σηὼν τῷ ᾿Ισραὴλ παρελθεῖν διὰ τῶν ὁρίων αὐτοῦ, καὶ συνήγαγε Σηὼν πάντα τὸν λαὸν αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐξῆλθε παρατάξασθαι τῷ ᾿Ισραὴλ εἰς τὴν ἔρημον καὶ ἦλθεν εἰς ᾿Ιασσὰ καὶ παρετάξατο τῷ ᾿Ισραήλ.
И҆ не дадѐ сиѡ́нъ і҆и҃лю проитѝ сквозѣ̀ предѣ́лы своѧ̑: и҆ собра̀ сиѡ́нъ всѧ̑ лю́ди своѧ̑, и҆ и҆зы́де ѡ҆полчи́тисѧ на і҆и҃лѧ въ пꙋсты́ню: и҆ прїи́де во і҆асса́нъ, и҆ ѡ҆полчи́сѧ на і҆и҃лѧ.
And Israel smote him with the slaughter of the sword, and they became possessors of his land, from Arnon to Jaboc, as far as the children of Amman, for Jazer is the borders of the children of Amman.
καὶ ἐπάταξεν αὐτὸν ᾿Ισραὴλ φόνῳ μαχαίρας καὶ κατεκυρίευσαν τῆς γῆς αὐτοῦ ἀπὸ ᾿Αρνῶν ἕως ᾿Ιαβόκ, ἕως υἱῶν ᾿Αμμάν· ὅτι ᾿Ιαζὴρ ὅρια υἱῶν ᾿Αμμάν ἐστι.
И҆ поразѝ є҆го̀ і҆и҃ль ᲂу҆бі́йствомъ меча̀, и҆ ѡ҆блада́ше земле́ю є҆гѡ̀ ѿ а҆рнѡ́на до і҆аво́ка, да́же до сынѡ́въ а҆мма́нихъ: ꙗ҆́кѡ і҆ази́ръ предѣ́лы сынѡ́въ а҆мма́нихъ сꙋ́ть.
And Israel took all their cities, and Israel dwelt in all the cities of the Amorites, in Esebon, and in all cities belonging to it.
καὶ ἔλαβεν ᾿Ισραὴλ πάσας τὰς πόλεις ταύτας, καὶ κατῴκησεν ᾿Ισραὴλ ἐν πάσαις ταῖς πόλεσι τῶν ᾿Αμορραίων, ἐν ᾿Εσεβὼν καὶ ἐν πάσαις ταῖς συγκυρούσαις αὐτῇ.
И҆ взѧ̀ і҆и҃ль всѧ̑ гра́ды сїѧ̑: и҆ всели́сѧ і҆и҃ль во всѣ́хъ градѣ́хъ а҆морре́йскихъ, во є҆севѡ́нѣ и҆ во всѣ́хъ подлежа́щихъ є҆мꙋ̀:
For Esebon is the city of Seon king of the Amorites; and he before fought against the king of Moab, and they took all his land, from Aroer to Arnon.
ἔστι γὰρ ᾿Εσεβὼν πόλις Σηὼν τοῦ βασιλέως τῶν ᾿Αμορραίων, καὶ οὗτος ἐπολέμησε βασιλέα Μωὰβ τὸ πρότερον καὶ ἔλαβον πᾶσαν τὴν γῆν αὐτοῦ ἀπὸ ᾿Αροὴρ ἕως ᾿Αρνῶν.
є҆́сть бо є҆севѡ́нъ гра́дъ сиѡ́на царѧ̀ а҆морре́йска: и҆ се́й повоева̀ царѧ̀ мѡа́влѧ пре́жде и҆ взѧ̀ всю̀ зе́млю є҆гѡ̀ ѿ а҆рои́ра да́же до а҆рнѡ́на.
Therefore say they who deal in dark speeches, Come to Esebon, that the city of Seon may be built and prepared.
διὰ τοῦτο ἐροῦσιν οἱ αἰνιγματισταί· ἔλθετε εἰς ᾿Εσεβών, ἵνα οἰκοδομηθῇ καὶ κατασκευασθῇ πόλις Σηών.
Сегѡ̀ ра́ди рекꙋ́тъ при́точницы: прїиди́те во є҆севѡ́нъ, да согради́тсѧ и҆ сози́ждетсѧ гра́дъ сїѡ́нъ:
For a fire has gone forth from Esebon, a flame from the city of Seon, and has consumed as far as Moab, and devoured the pillars of Arnon.
ὅτι πῦρ ἐξῆλθεν ἐξ ᾿Εσεβών, φλὸξ ἐκ πόλεως Σηὼν καὶ κατέφαγεν ἕως Μωὰβ καὶ κατέπιε στήλας ᾿Αρνῶν.
ꙗ҆́кѡ ѻ҆́гнь и҆зы́де ѿ є҆севѡ́на и҆ пла́мень ѿ гра́да сїѡ́на, и҆ поѧдѐ да́же до мѡа́ва, и҆ пожрѐ столпы̀ а҆рнѡ̑нскїѧ:
Woe to thee, Moab; thou art lost, thou people of Chamos: their sons are sold for preservation, and their daughters are captives to Seon king of the Amorites.
οὐαί σοι, Μωάβ· ἀπώλου, λαὸς Χαμώς. ἀπεδόθησαν οἱ υἱοὶ αὐτῶν διασῴζεσθαι καὶ αἱ θυγατέρες αὐτῶν αἰχμάλωτοι τῷ βασιλεῖ τῶν ᾿Αμορραίων Σηών·
го́ре тебѣ̀, мѡа́ве, погибо́сте, лю́дїе хамѡ́сѡвы: про́дани бы́ша сы́нове и҆́хъ въ заключе́нїе и҆ дщє́ри и҆́хъ плѣ̑нницы царю̀ а҆морре́йскомꙋ сиѡ́нꙋ:
And their seed shall perish [from] Esebon to Daebon; and their women have yet farther kindled a fire against Moab.
καὶ τὸ σπέρμα αὐτῶν ἀπολεῖται, ᾿Εσεβὼν ἕως Δαιβών, καὶ αἱ γυναῖκες ἔτι προσεξέκαυσαν πῦρ ἐπὶ Μωάβ.
и҆ сѣ́мѧ и҆́хъ поги́бнетъ, є҆севѡ́нъ да́же до девѡ́на: и҆ жєны̀ и҆́хъ є҆щѐ разожго́ша ѻ҆́гнь на мѡа́ва.
And Israel dwelt in all the cities of the Amorites.
Κατώκησε δὲ ᾿Ισραὴλ ἐν πάσαις ταῖς πόλεσι τῶν ᾿Αμορραίων.
Всели́сѧ же і҆и҃ль во всѧ̑ гра́ды а҆моррє́йски:
And Moses sent to spy out Jazer; and they took it, and its villages, and cast out the Amorite that dwelt there.
καὶ ἀπέστειλε Μωυσῆς κατασκέψασθαι τὴν ᾿Ιαζήρ, καὶ κατελάβοντο αὐτὴν καὶ τὰς κώμας αὐτῆς καὶ ἐξέβαλον τὸν ᾿Αμορραῖον τὸν κατοικοῦντα ἐκεῖ.
и҆ посла̀ мѡѷсе́й соглѧ́дати і҆ази́ра: и҆ взѧ́ша є҆го̀ и҆ се́ла є҆гѡ̀, и҆ и҆згна́ша а҆морре́а живꙋ́щаго та́мѡ:
And having returned, they went up the road that leads to Basan; and Og the king of Basan went forth to meet them, and all his people to war to Edrain.
καὶ ἐπιστρέψαντες ἀνέβησαν ὁδὸν τὴν εἰς Βασάν· καὶ ἐξῆλθεν ῍Ωγ βασιλεὺς τῆς Βασὰν εἰς συνάντησιν αὐτοῖς καὶ πᾶς ὁ λαὸς αὐτοῦ εἰς πόλεμον εἰς ᾿Εδραείν.
и҆ возврати́вшесѧ, прїидо́ша пꙋте́мъ въ васа́нъ. И҆ и҆зы́де ѡ҆́гъ, ца́рь васа́нскїй, проти́вꙋ и҆̀мъ и҆ всѝ лю́дїе є҆гѡ̀ на бра́нь во є҆драі́нъ.
And the Lord said to Moses, Fear him not; for I have delivered him and all his people, and all his land, into thy hands; and thou shalt do to him as thou didst to Seon king of the Amorites, who dwelt in Esebon.
καὶ εἶπε Κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν· μὴ φοβηθῇς αὐτόν, ὅτι εἰς τὰς χεῖράς σου παραδέδωκα αὐτὸν καὶ πάντα τὸν λαὸν αὐτοῦ καὶ πᾶσαν τὴν γῆν αὐτοῦ, καὶ ποιήσεις αὐτῷ καθὼς ἐποίησας τῷ Σηὼν βασιλεῖ τῶν ᾿Αμορραίων, ὃς κατῴκει ἐν ᾿Εσεβών.
И҆ речѐ гдⷭ҇ь къ мѡѷсе́ю: не ᲂу҆бо́йсѧ є҆гѡ̀, ꙗ҆́кѡ въ рꙋ́цѣ твоѝ преда́хъ є҆го̀ и҆ всѧ̑ лю́ди є҆гѡ̀ и҆ всю̀ зе́млю є҆гѡ̀: и҆ сотвори́ши є҆мꙋ̀, ꙗ҆́коже сотвори́лъ є҆сѝ сиѡ́нꙋ царю̀ а҆морре́йскꙋ, и҆́же живѧ́ше во є҆севѡ́нѣ.
And he smote him and his sons, and all his people, until he left none of his to be taken alive; and they inherited his land.
καὶ ἐπάταξεν αὐτὸν καὶ τοὺς υἱοὺς αὐτοῦ καὶ πάντα τὸν λαὸν αὐτοῦ, ἕως τοῦ μὴ καταλιπεῖν αὐτοῦ ζωγρείαν· καὶ ἐκληρονόμησαν τὴν γῆν αὐτοῦ.
И҆ поразѝ є҆го̀ и҆ сы́ны є҆гѡ̀ и҆ всѧ̑ лю́ди є҆гѡ̀, да́же не ѡ҆ста̀ въ ни́хъ живы́й: и҆ наслѣ́диша зе́млю є҆гѡ̀.
And the Lord sent among the people deadly serpents, and they bit the people, and much people of the children of Israel died.
καὶ ἀπέστειλε Κύριος εἰς τὸν λαὸν τοὺς ὄφεις τοὺς θανατοῦντας, καὶ ἔδακνον τὸν λαόν, καὶ ἀπέθανε λαὸς πολὺς τῶν υἱῶν ᾿Ισραήλ.
И҆ посла̀ гдⷭ҇ь на лю́ди ѕмїє́въ ᲂу҆мерщвлѧ́ющихъ, и҆ ᲂу҆грыза́хꙋ люді́й: и҆ ᲂу҆мро́ша лю́ди мно́зи ѿ сынѡ́въ і҆и҃левыхъ.
