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.

We set off and went up the road towards Bashan. Og, king of Bashan, and his whole army came out to fight us at Edrei.

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.'

But the Lord told me, “Don't be afraid of him, for I have handed him over to you, together with all his people and his land. Deal with him as you did with Sihon, king of the Amorites, who ruled in Heshbon.”

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 handed over to us Og, king of Bashan, and his whole army as well. We killed them and left no survivors.

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

We also captured all his towns. There wasn't a single town among all the sixty that we didn't capture. This included the whole region of Argob, the kingdom of Og in Bashan.

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

All of these towns were fortified with high walls and gates with bars. There were many more villages as well, those that didn't have walls.

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

We set them apart for destruction, just as we did to Sihon, king of Heshbon, killing all the men, women, and children of every city.

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

But we took for ourselves all the livestock and plunder from the towns.

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 (

So in summary, at that time we took from the two Amorite kings the land east of the Jordan, from the Arnon Valley all the way to Mount Hermon.

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

(Mount Hermon is called Sirion by the Sidonians and Senir by the Amorites.)

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

The area included all the towns of the plain, all of Gilead, and all of Bashan, up to and including the towns of Salecah and Edrei in the kingdom of Og.

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.)

(Only Og, king of Bashan, was left of the race of the Rephaim. He had a bed made of iron that was nine cubits long and four cubits wide. It's still in the Ammonite town of Rabbah.)

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.

This is when we took over the land. I assigned to the tribes of Reuben and Gad the land to the north of the town of Aroer in the Arnon Valley, and half the hill country of Gilead, together with its towns.

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

I assigned to the half-tribe of Manasseh the rest of Gilead, and all of Bashan, the kingdom of Og. (The whole region of Argob, all the territory of Bashan, was formerly called the land of the Rephaim.)

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, a descendant of Manasseh, took over the whole region of Argob right up to the border of the Geshurites and Maacathites and changed the name of Bashan to Havvoth-jair after himself, which is still its name to this day.

15 Makiru sam dodijelio Gilead.

I assigned the rest of Gilead to the descendants of Machir,

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

while I assigned to the tribes of Reuben and Gad the area from Gilead to the Arnon Valley, the boundary line being the middle of the valley, all the way to the Jabbok River on the Ammonite border.

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

The Jordan River in the Arabah bordered it to the west, from the Sea of Galilee to the Sea of the Arabah (the Dead Sea). On the east lay the slopes of the Pisgah mountain range.

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.

This was when I gave you these instructions: “The Lord your God has given you this country as yours to own. All your warriors are to cross over, ready for battle, leading your fellow Israelites.

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

However, your wives, your children, and your livestock (I know that you have plenty of livestock) can stay behind in the towns I have given 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 gives victory to your fellow Israelites and they have peace, just as he has for you, after taking over the land that the Lord your God is giving them on the other side of the Jordan. Then you can all return to the land I have given you to own.”

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.

This was the time I ordered Joshua: “You've seen with your own eyes seen everything the Lord your God did to these two kings. The Lord will do the same to all the kingdoms where you're going.

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

Don't be afraid of them, for the Lord your God himself will be fighting on your side.”

23 Tada zamolih milost u Jahve:

This was also the time I pleaded with the Lord, 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, you've really only just begun to show your power and greatness to me, your servant. What god in heaven or on earth has the incredible ability to do the mighty acts you do?

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

Please, let me cross over the Jordan and see the good land there, the beautiful hills, and the mountains of Lebanon!”

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

But the Lord was angry with me because of you, and he refused to listen to me. “That's enough,” he told me. “Don't talk to me about this anymore.

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.

Climb up to the top of Mount and look west, north, south, and east. Take a long look at the land with your own eyes, because you're not going to cross 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.'

Instead, put Joshua in charge because he's the one who will cross over, leading the people and helping them to take over the land that you see. Encourage him and support him.”

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

So we remained there in the valley near Beth-peor.
