So I took the heads of your tribes, wise men, and full of knowledge, and made them heads over you, captains of thousands, and captains of hundreds, and captains of fifties, and captains of tens, and officers, tribe by tribe.
16.
וָאֲצַוֶּה, אֶת-שֹׁפְטֵיכֶם, בָּעֵת הַהִוא, לֵאמֹר: שָׁמֹעַ בֵּין-אֲחֵיכֶם וּשְׁפַטְתֶּם צֶדֶק, בֵּין-אִישׁ וּבֵין-אָחִיו וּבֵין גֵּרוֹ.
va'atsaveh, et-shofteykhem, ba'et hahi, lemor: shamo'a bein-akheykhem ushefattem tzedek, bein-ish ubein-akhiv uvein gero.
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 stranger that is with him.
17.
לֹא-תַכִּירוּ פָנִים בַּמִּשְׁפָּט, כַּקָּטֹן כַּגָּדֹל תִּשְׁמָעוּן--לֹא תָגוּרוּ מִפְּנֵי-אִישׁ, כִּי הַמִּשְׁפָּט לֵאלֹהִים הוּא; וְהַדָּבָר אֲשֶׁר יִקְשֶׁה מִכֶּם, תַּקְרִבוּן אֵלַי וּשְׁמַעְתִּיו.
Lo-takkiru fanim bamishpat, kakaton kagadol tishma'un--lo taguru mipnei-ish, ki hamishpat lelohim hu; vehadavar asher yiksheh mikem, takrivun elai ushema'tiv.
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 any 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.
וָאֲצַוֶּה אֶתְכֶם, בָּעֵת הַהִוא, אֵת כָּל-הַדְּבָרִים, אֲשֶׁר תַּעֲשׂוּן.
Va'atzaveh etchem, ba'et hahi, et kol-hadevarim, asher ta'asun.
And I commanded you at that time all the things which ye should do.
19.
וַנִּסַּע מֵחֹרֵב, וַנֵּלֶךְ אֵת כָּל-הַמִּדְבָּר הַגָּדוֹל וְהַנּוֹרָא הַהוּא אֲשֶׁר רְאִיתֶם דֶּרֶךְ הַר הָאֱמֹרִי, כַּאֲשֶׁר צִוָּה יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵינוּ, אֹתָנוּ; וַנָּבֹא, עַד קָדֵשׁ בַּרְנֵעַ.
Wanisasa mechoref, wanelech et kol-hamidbar hagadol wehanora hahu asher re'item derekh har ha'emori, ka'asher tziwwah YHWH eloheinu, otanu; wannavo, ad kadesh barnea.
And we journeyed from Horeb, and went through all that great and dreadful wilderness which ye saw, by the way to the hill-country of the Amorites, as the LORD our God commanded us; and we came to Kadesh-barnea.
20.
וָאֹמַר, אֲלֵכֶם: בָּאתֶם עַד-הַר הָאֱמֹרִי, אֲשֶׁר-יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵינוּ נֹתֵן לָנוּ.
Wa'omar, alekhem: batem ad-har ha'emori, asher-YHWH eloheinu noten lanu.
And I said unto you: 'Ye are come unto the hill-country of the Amorites, which the LORD our God giveth unto us.
21.
רְאֵה נָתַן יְהוָה אֱלֹהֶיךָ, לְפָנֶיךָ--אֶת-הָאָרֶץ: עֲלֵה רֵשׁ, כַּאֲשֶׁר דִּבֶּר יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵי אֲבֹתֶיךָ לָךְ--אַל-תִּירָא, וְאַל-תֵּחָת.
re'eh natan YHWH Elohekha, lefanekha et ha'aretz: aleh resh, ka'asher diber YHWH Elohei avotekha lakh, al tira, ve'al tekhat.
Behold, the LORD thy God hath set the land before thee; go up, take possession, as the LORD, the God of thy fathers, hath spoken unto thee; fear not, neither be dismayed.'
22.
וַתִּקְרְבוּן אֵלַי, כֻּלְּכֶם, וַתֹּאמְרוּ נִשְׁלְחָה אֲנָשִׁים לְפָנֵינוּ, וְיַחְפְּרוּ-לָנוּ אֶת-הָאָרֶץ; וְיָשִׁבוּ אֹתָנוּ, דָּבָר--אֶת-הַדֶּרֶךְ אֲשֶׁר נַעֲלֶה-בָּהּ, וְאֵת הֶעָרִים אֲשֶׁר נָבֹא אֲלֵיהֶן.
vattikrevun elai, kulkhem, vattomeru nishlekhah anashim lefanenu, veyahperu lanu et ha'aretz; vayashivu otanu, davar et ha'derekh asher na'aleh bah, ve'et he'arim asher navo aleihen.
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 back word of the way by which we must go up, and the cities unto which we shall come.'
23.
וַיִּיטַב בְּעֵינַי, הַדָּבָר; וָאֶקַּח מִכֶּם שְׁנֵים עָשָׂר אֲנָשִׁים, אִישׁ אֶחָד לַשָּׁבֶט.
vayyitav be'einai, hadavar; va'ekakh mikhem shenem asar anashim, ish echad lashavet.
And the thing pleased me well; and I took twelve men of you, one man for every tribe;
24.
וַיִּפְנוּ וַיַּעֲלוּ הָהָרָה, וַיָּבֹאוּ עַד-נַחַל אֶשְׁכֹּל; וַיְרַגְּלוּ, אֹתָהּ.
vaypinu vayyalu haharah, vayyavo'u ad nakhal Eshkol; vayragrelu, otah.
and they turned and went up into the mountains, and came unto the valley of Eshcol, and spied it out.
25.
וַיִּקְחוּ בְיָדָם מִפְּרִי הָאָרֶץ, וַיּוֹרִדוּ אֵלֵינוּ; וַיָּשִׁבוּ אֹתָנוּ דָבָר, וַיֹּאמְרוּ, טוֹבָה הָאָרֶץ, אֲשֶׁר-יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵינוּ נֹתֵן לָנוּ.
vayikhu veyadam mipri ha'aretz, vayoridu elenu; vayashivu otanu davar, vayomeru, tovah ha'aretz, asher-YHWH Eloheinu noten lanu.
And they took of the fruit of the land in their hands, and brought it down unto us, and brought us back word, and said: 'Good is the land which the LORD our God giveth unto us.'
26.
וְלֹא אֲבִיתֶם, לַעֲלֹת; וַתַּמְרוּ, אֶת-פִּי יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵיכֶם.
velo avitem, la'alot; vatamru, et-pi YHWH Eloheykhem.
Yet ye would not go up, but rebelled against the commandment of the LORD your God;
27.
וַתֵּרָגְנוּ בְאָהֳלֵיכֶם, וַתֹּאמְרוּ, בְּשִׂנְאַת יְהוָה אֹתָנוּ, הוֹצִיאָנוּ מֵאֶרֶץ מִצְרָיִם--לָתֵת אֹתָנוּ בְּיַד הָאֱמֹרִי, לְהַשְׁמִידֵנוּ.
vateragnu ve'ohaleykhem, vatomru, besin'at YHWH otanu, hotzi'anu me'eretz Mitzrayim--latet otanu beyad ha'emori, lehashmidenu.
and ye murmured in your tents, and said: 'Because the LORD 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.
אָנָה אֲנַחְנוּ עֹלִים, אַחֵינוּ הֵמַסּוּ אֶת-לְבָבֵנוּ לֵאמֹר עַם גָּדוֹל וָרָם מִמֶּנּוּ, עָרִים גְּדֹלֹת וּבְצוּרֹת, בַּשָּׁמָיִם; וְגַם-בְּנֵי עֲנָקִים, רָאִינוּ שָׁם.
anah anachnu olim, acheinu hemassu et-levavenu lemor am gadol veram mimenu, arim gedolot uvtsurot, bashamayim; vegam-bnei anakim, ra'inu sham.
Whither are we going up? our brethren have made our heart to melt, saying: The people is 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.
וָאֹמַר, אֲלֵכֶם: לֹא-תַעַרְצוּן וְלֹא-תִירְאוּן, מֵהֶם.
va'omar alekhem lo-ta'artsun ve'lo-tira'un mehem.
Then I said unto you: 'Dread not, neither be afraid of them.
30.
יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵיכֶם הַהֹלֵךְ לִפְנֵיכֶם, הוּא יִלָּחֵם לָכֶם: כְּכֹל אֲשֶׁר עָשָׂה אִתְּכֶם, בְּמִצְרַיִם--לְעֵינֵיכֶם.
YHWH Elohekhem haholekh lifnekhem hu yillakhem lakhem kekhol asher asah itkhem bemitsrayim le'eynekhem.
The LORD your God who goeth before you, He shall fight for you, according to all that He did for you in Egypt before your eyes;
31.
וּבַמִּדְבָּר, אֲשֶׁר רָאִיתָ, אֲשֶׁר נְשָׂאֲךָ יְהוָה אֱלֹהֶיךָ, כַּאֲשֶׁר יִשָּׂא-אִישׁ אֶת-בְּנוֹ--בְּכָל-הַדֶּרֶךְ אֲשֶׁר הֲלַכְתֶּם, עַד-בֹּאֲכֶם עַד-הַמָּקוֹם הַזֶּה.
uvamidbar asher ra'ita asher nesa'akha YHWH Elohekha ka'asher yissa-ish et-beno bekhol-haderekh asher halakhtem ad-bo'akhem ad-hamakom hazeh.
and in the wilderness, where thou hast seen how that the LORD thy God bore thee, as a man doth bear his son, in all the way that ye went, until ye came unto this place.
32.
וּבַדָּבָר, הַזֶּה--אֵינְכֶם, מַאֲמִינִם, בַּיהוָה, אֱלֹהֵיכֶם.
uvadavar hazeh einekhem ma'aminim baYHWH Elohekhem.
Yet in this thing ye do not believe the LORD your God,
33.
הַהֹלֵךְ לִפְנֵיכֶם בַּדֶּרֶךְ, לָתוּר לָכֶם מָקוֹם--לַחֲנֹתְכֶם: בָּאֵשׁ לַיְלָה, לַרְאֹתְכֶם בַּדֶּרֶךְ אֲשֶׁר תֵּלְכוּ-בָהּ, וּבֶעָנָן, יוֹמָם.
haholekh lifnekhem baderekh, latur lakhem makom--lakhanotekhem: ba'esh laylah, lar'otekhem baderekh asher telekhu-bah, uve'anan, yomam.
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.
וַיִּשְׁמַע יְהוָה, אֶת-קוֹל דִּבְרֵיכֶם; וַיִּקְצֹף, וַיִּשָּׁבַע לֵאמֹר.
vayishma YHWH, et-kol divrekhem; vayiktzof, vayishava lemor.
And the LORD heard the voice of your words, and was wroth, and swore, saying:
35.
אִם-יִרְאֶה אִישׁ בָּאֲנָשִׁים הָאֵלֶּה, הַדּוֹר הָרָע הַזֶּה--אֵת, הָאָרֶץ הַטּוֹבָה, אֲשֶׁר נִשְׁבַּעְתִּי, לָתֵת לַאֲבֹתֵיכֶם.
im-yir'e ish ba'anashim ha'elleh, hador hara hazzeh--et, ha'aretz hattovah, asher nishba'fti, latet la'avotekhem.
'Surely there shall not one of these men, even this evil generation, see the good land, which I swore to give unto your fathers,
36.
זוּלָתִי כָּלֵב בֶּן-יְפֻנֶּה, הוּא יִרְאֶנָּה, וְלוֹ-אֶתֵּן אֶת-הָאָרֶץ אֲשֶׁר דָּרַךְ-בָּהּ, וּלְבָנָיו--יַעַן, אֲשֶׁר מִלֵּא אַחֲרֵי יְהוָה.
zulati kalev ben-yefunneh, hu yir'enna, velo-etten et-ha'aretz asher darakh-bah, ulevanav--ya'an, asher mille akharei YHWH.
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 the LORD.'
37.
גַּם-בִּי הִתְאַנַּף יְהוָה, בִּגְלַלְכֶם לֵאמֹר: גַּם-אַתָּה, לֹא-תָבֹא שָׁם.
gam-bi hit'anaf YHWH, biglalkhem lemor: gam-atah, lo-tavo sham.
Also the LORD was angry with me for your sakes, saying: Thou also shalt not go in thither;
38.
יְהוֹשֻׁעַ בִּן-נוּן הָעֹמֵד לְפָנֶיךָ, הוּא יָבֹא שָׁמָּה; אֹתוֹ חַזֵּק, כִּי-הוּא יַנְחִלֶנָּה אֶת-יִשְׂרָאֵל.
Yehoshua bin-nun ha'omed lefanekha, hu yavo shamah; oto khazek, ki-hu yankhilennah et-yisrael.
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.
וְטַפְּכֶם אֲשֶׁר אֲמַרְתֶּם לָבַז יִהְיֶה, וּבְנֵיכֶם אֲשֶׁר לֹא-יָדְעוּ הַיּוֹם טוֹב וָרָע--הֵמָּה, יָבֹאוּ שָׁמָּה; וְלָהֶם אֶתְּנֶנָּה, וְהֵם יִירָשׁוּהָ.
vetafkhem asher amartem lavaz yihyeh, uvenekhem asher lo-yade'u hayom tov vara--hemmah, yavo'u shamah; velahem etenennah, vehem yirashuha.
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.
וְאַתֶּם, פְּנוּ לָכֶם; וּסְעוּ הַמִּדְבָּרָה, דֶּרֶךְ יַם-סוּף.
ve'atem, penu lakhem; use'u hamidbarah, derekh yam-suf.
But as for you, turn you, and take your journey into the wilderness by the way to the Red Sea.'
41.
וַתַּעֲנוּ וַתֹּאמְרוּ אֵלַי, חָטָאנוּ לַיהוָה--אֲנַחְנוּ נַעֲלֶה וְנִלְחַמְנוּ, כְּכֹל אֲשֶׁר-צִוָּנוּ יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵינוּ; וַתַּחְגְּרוּ, אִישׁ אֶת-כְּלֵי מִלְחַמְתּוֹ, וַתָּהִינוּ, לַעֲלֹת הָהָרָה.
vatta'anu vatomru elay, khatanu laYHWH--anakhnu na'aleh venilkhamnu, kekhol asher-tzivanu YHWH Eloheinu; vatta'gheru, ish et-klei milkhamto, vattahinu, la'alot haharah.
Then ye answered and said unto me: 'We have sinned against the LORD, we will go up and fight, according to all that the LORD our God commanded us.' And ye girded on every man his weapons of war, and deemed it a light thing to go up into the hill-country.
42.
וַיֹּאמֶר יְהוָה אֵלַי, אֱמֹר לָהֶם לֹא תַעֲלוּ וְלֹא-תִלָּחֲמוּ--כִּי אֵינֶנִּי, בְּקִרְבְּכֶם; וְלֹא, תִּנָּגְפוּ, לִפְנֵי, אֹיְבֵיכֶם.
vayomer YHWH elay, emor lahem lo ta'alu velo-tillakhamu--ki einenni, bekirbekhem; velo, tinnagefu, lifnei, oyveikhem.
And the LORD 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.
וָאֲדַבֵּר אֲלֵיכֶם, וְלֹא שְׁמַעְתֶּם; וַתַּמְרוּ אֶת-פִּי יְהוָה, וַתָּזִדוּ וַתַּעֲלוּ הָהָרָה.
va'adaber aleikhem, velo shema'tem; vattamru et-pi YHWH, vattazidu vatta'alu haharah.
So I spoke unto you, and ye hearkened not; but ye rebelled against the commandment of the LORD, and were presumptuous, and went up into the hill-country.
44.
וַיֵּצֵא הָאֱמֹרִי הַיֹּשֵׁב בָּהָר הַהוּא, לִקְרַאתְכֶם, וַיִּרְדְּפוּ אֶתְכֶם, כַּאֲשֶׁר תַּעֲשֶׂינָה הַדְּבֹרִים; וַיַּכְּתוּ אֶתְכֶם בְּשֵׂעִיר, עַד-חָרְמָה.
vayyetzei ha'emori hayoshev bahar hahu, likratkhem, vayyirdufu etkhem, ka'asher ta'aseinah hadeborim; vayyakhtu etkhem bese'ir, ad-kharmah.
And the Amorites, that dwell in that hill-country, came out against you, and chased you, as bees do, and beat you down in Seir, even unto Hormah.
45.
וַתָּשֻׁבוּ וַתִּבְכּוּ, לִפְנֵי יְהוָה; וְלֹא-שָׁמַע יְהוָה בְּקֹלְכֶם, וְלֹא הֶאֱזִין אֲלֵיכֶם.
vattashuvu vattivku lifnei YHWH velo-shama YHWH bekolekhem velo he'azin aleikhem.
And ye returned and wept before the LORD; but the LORD hearkened not to your voice, nor gave ear unto you.
46.
וַתֵּשְׁבוּ בְקָדֵשׁ, יָמִים רַבִּים, כַּיָּמִים, אֲשֶׁר יְשַׁבְתֶּם.
vateshevu vekadesh yamim rabbim kayyamim asher yeshattem.
So ye abode in Kadesh many days, according unto the days that ye abode there.
