Ponovljeni zakon 3

1 Tada se okrenusmo i pođosmo prema Bašanu. Presrete nas bašanski kralj Og sa svim svojim narodom i nametnu nam boj kod Edreja.

Then we turned and went by the way of Basan: and Og the king of Basan came out to meet us with his people to fight in Edrai.

2 Tada mi Jahve reče: 'Ne boj ga se! TÓa u tvoje sam ruke predao njega, sav njegov narod i njegovu zemlju. Učini s njim kako si učinio sa Sihonom, kraljem amorejskim, koji je živio u Hešbonu.'

And the Lord said to me: Fear him not: because he is delivered into thy hand, with all his people and his land: and thou shalt do to him as thou hast done to Sehon king of the Amorrhites, that dwelt in Hesebon.

3 Tako je Jahve, Bog naš, u ruke naše predao i bašanskoga kralja Oga sa svim njegovim narodom. Tukli smo ga tako da mu nitko na životu nije ostao.

So the Lord our God delivered into our hands, Og also the king of Basan, and all his people: and we utterly destroyed them,

4 Osvojili smo tada sve njegove gradove. Nije bilo grada koji im nismo oteli - šezdeset gradova, zapravo svu argopsku krajinu, Ogovo kraljevstvo u Bašanu.

Wasting all his cities at one time, there was not a town that escaped us: sixty cities, all the country of Argob the kingdom of Og in Basan.

5 Svi su oni gradovi bili utvrđeni visokim zidinama, vratima i prijevornicama. Uz njih je bilo veoma mnogo otvorenih zaselaka.

All the cities were fenced with very high walls, and with gates and bars, besides innumerable towns that had no walls.

6 Udarismo ih prokletstvom - kako smo učinili i sa Sihonom, kraljem hešbonskim - zatrvši svaki grad, ljude, žene i djecu.

And we utterly destroyed them, as we had done to Sehon the king of Hesebon, destroying every city, men and women and children:

7 A svu stoku i plijen po tim gradovima zadržasmo za se.

But the cattle and the spoils of the cities we took for our prey.

8 Tako smo u ono vrijeme iz ruku dvaju amorejskih kraljeva uzeli zemlju što se nalazi s onu stranu Jordana, od potoka Arnona do brda Hermona (

And we took at that time the land out of the hand of the two kings of the Amorrhites, that were beyond the Jordan: from the torrent Amen unto the mount Hermon,

9 Sidonci zovu Hermon Sirjon, a Amorejci ga zovu Senir):

Which the Sidonians call Sarion, and the Amorrhites Sanir:

10 sve gradove po Visoravni, sav Gilead i sav Bašan, sve do Salke i Edreja - gradove Ogova kraljevstva u Bašanu. (

All the cities that are situate in the plain, and all the land of Galaad and Basan as far as Selcha and Edrai, cities of the kingdom of Og in Basan.

11 Bašanski kralj Og jedini je od preostalih Refaimovaca. Krevet njegov, odar od željeza, još se nalazi u Rabi, gradu sinova Amonovih: deset je lakata - običnih lakata - dug, a četiri lakta širok.)

For only Og king of Basan remained of the race of the giants. His bed of iron is shewn, which is in Rabbath of the children of Ammon, being nine cubits long, and four broad after the measure of the cubit of a man’s hand.

12 To je, dakle, bila zemlja koju smo zauzeli u ono vrijeme, počev od Aroera, koji je na potoku Arnonu. Polovicu gileadskog pogorja s njegovim gradovima dao sam Rubenovcima i Gadovcima.

And we possessed the land at that time from Aroer, which is upon the bank of the torrent Amen, unto the half of mount Galaad: and I gave the cities thereof to Ruben and Gad.

13 Ostatak Gileada i sav Bašan, Ogovo kraljevstvo, dodijelio sam polovini Manašeova plemena. (Sva argopska krajina i sav Bašan zove se zemlja refaimska.

And I delivered the other part of Galaad, and all Basan the kingdom of Og to the half tribe of Manasses, all the country of Argob: and all Basan is called the Land of giants.

14 Manašeov sin Jair zauzeo je svu argopsku krajinu do međe Gešurovaca i Maakinovaca. On ta mjesta bašanska nazva svojim imenom, pa se još i danas zovu Jairova Sela.)

Jair the son of Manasses possessed all the country of Argob unto the borders of Gessuri, and Machati. And he called Basan by his own name, Havoth Jair, that is to say, the towns of Jair, until this present day.

15 Makiru sam dodijelio Gilead.

To Machir also I gave Galaad.

16 Rubenovcima i Gadovcima dao sam od Gileada do potoka Arnona - sredina potoka jest međa - i do potoka Jaboka, amonske granice.

And to the tribes of Ruben and Gad I gave of the land of Galaad as far as the torrent Amen, half the torrent, and the confines even unto the torrent Jeboc, which is the border of the children of Ammon:

17 A granicom su služile Araba i Jordan od Kinereta do mora uz Arabu - Slanog mora - na podnožju obronaka Pisge prema istoku.

And the plain of the wilderness, and the Jordan, and the borders of Cenereth unto the sea of the desert, which is the most salt sea, to the foot of mount Phasga eastward.

18 U ono vam vrijeme naredih: 'Jahve, Bog vaš, daje vam ovu zemlju u posjed. Svi vi koji ste od boja pođite naoružani pred svojom braćom Izraelcima.

And I commanded you at that time, saying: The Lord your God giveth you this land for an inheritance, go ye well appointed before your brethren the children of Israel, all the strong men of you,

19 Jedino žene vaše, djeca vaša i stoka vaša - znam da imate mnogo stoke - neka ostanu u vašim gradovima što vam ih dodijelih

Leaving your wives and children and cattle. For I know you have much cattle, and they must remain in the cities, which I have delivered to you.

20 dokle Jahve ne dadne miran boravak i vašoj braći kao i vama; tako da i oni zauzmu zemlju što im je Jahve, Bog vaš, daje s onu stranu Jordana. Istom onda neka se svaki od vas vrati na posjed što sam vam ga dodijelio.'

Until the Lord give rest to your brethren, as he hath given to you: and they also possess the land, which he will give them beyond the Jordan: then shall every man return to his possession, which I have given you.

21 U ono sam vrijeme naredio Jošui: 'Svojim si očima vidio što je sve Jahve, Bog vaš, učinio onoj dvojici kraljeva. Tako će Jahve učiniti sa svim kraljevstvima preko kojih budeš prelazio.

I commanded Josue also at that time, saying: Thy eyes have seen what the Lord your God hath done to these two kings: so will he do to all the kingdoms to which thou shalt pass.

22 Ne bojte se njih! TÓa Jahve, Bog vaš, bori se za vas.'

Fear them not: for the Lord your God will fight for you.

23 Tada zamolih milost u Jahve:

And I besought the Lord at that time, saying:

24 'Gospodine moj, Jahve! Ti si počeo pokazivati svome sluzi svoju veličajnost i svoju moć. TÓa koji bog, na nebu ili na zemlji, može izvesti takva djela i čudesa kao što su tvoja!

Lord God, thou hast begun to shew unto thy servant thy greatness, and most mighty hand, for there is no other God either in heaven or earth, that is able to do thy works, or to be compared to thy strength.

25 Dopusti mi da odem onamo i pogledam onu blaženu zemlju preko Jordana, onaj krasni gorski kraj i Libanon!'

I will pass over therefore, and will see this excellent land beyond the Jordan, and this goodly mountain, and Libanus.

26 Ali je Jahve, zbog vas, bio na me ljut, pa me nije uslišao. 'Dosta', reče mi Jahve, 'ne govori mi više o tom!

And the Lord was angry with me on your account and heard me not, but said to me: It is enough: speak no more to me of this matter.

27 Popni se na vrhunac Pisge i upri oči svoje na zapad, sjever, jug i istok. Razmotri dobro očima svojim, jer preko Jordana nećeš prijeći.

Go up to the top of Phasga, and cast thy eyes round about to the west, and to the north, and to the south, and to the east, and behold it, for thou shalt not pass this Jordan.

28 Uputi Jošuu, osokoli ga i ohrabri! On neka ide na čelu ovoga naroda; neka ih on uvede u posjed zemlje koju vidiš.'

Command Josue, and encourage and strengthen him: for he shall go before this people, and shall divide unto them the land which thou shalt see.

29 Tako smo ostali u toj dolini kraj Bet Peora.”

And we abode in the valley over against the temple of Phogor.
