Translations

Modern

So the God of Israel stirred up the spirit of Pul king of Assyria (that is, Tiglath-pileser king of Assyria) to take the Reubenites, the Gadites, and the half-tribe of Manasseh into exile. And he brought them to Halah, Habor, Hara, and the river of Gozan, where they remain to this day.

Traditional

Literal

And the God of Israel stirred up the spirit of Pul king of Assyria (that is, the spirit of Tiglath-pilneser king of Assyria), and he removed them—the Reubenite, and the Gadite, and the half-tribe of Manasseh—and He took them to Halah, and Habor, and Hara, and the river of Gozan, to this day.

Latin

Et suscitavit Deus Israël spiritum Phul regis Assyriorum, et spiritum Thelgathphalnasar regis Assur: et transtulit Ruben, et Gad, et dimidiam tribum Manasse, et adduxit eos in Lahela, et in Habor, et Ara, et fluvium Gozan, usque ad diem hanc.
