< 5 Mosebog 3 >

1 Derpå brød vi op og drog mod Basan. Og Kong Og af Basan rykkede med alle sine Krigere ud imod os til Kamp ved Edrei.
Then we turned, and went up the way to Bashan. And Og the king of Bashan came out against us, he and all his people, to battle at Edrei.
2 Da sagde HERREN til mig: "Frygt ikke for ham, thi jeg giver ham i din Hånd tillige med hele hans Folk og Land, og du skal gøre ved ham, som du gjorde ved Sihon, Amoriterkongen i Hesjbon."
And Jehovah said to me, Fear him not, for I have delivered him, and all his people, and his land, into thy hand. And thou shall do to him as thou did to Sihon king of the Amorites, who dwelt at Heshbon.
3 Så gav HERREN vor Gud også kong Og af Basan og alle hans Krigere i vor Hånd, og vi slog ham, så ikke en eneste undslap.
So Jehovah our God delivered into our hand Og also, the king of Bashan, and all his people, and we smote him until none was left to him remaining.
4 Vi indtog dengang alle hans Byer; der var ikke een By, vi ikke fratog dem, i alt tresindstyve Byer, hele Landskabet Argob, Ogs Kongerige i Basan,
And we took all his cities at that time. There was not a city which we did not take from them, sixty cities, all the region of Argob, the kingdom of Og in Bashan.
5 lutter Byer, der var befæstet med høje Mure, Porte og Portslåer, foruden de mange åbne Byer;
All these were cities fortified with high walls, gates, and bars; besides the un-walled towns a great many.
6 og vi lagde Band på dem, ligesom vi havde gjort ved Kong Sihon i Hesjbon, i enhver By lagde vi Band på Mænd, Kvinder og Børn;
And we utterly destroyed them, as we did to Sihon king of Heshbon, utterly destroying every inhabited city, with the women and the little ones.
7 men alt Kvæget, og hvad vi røvede fra Byerne, tog vi selv som Bytte.
But all the cattle, and the spoil of the cities, we took for a prey to ourselves.
8 Således erobrede vi dengang Landet fra de to Amoriterkonger hinsides Jordan fra Arnonfloden til Hermonbjerget
And we took the land at that time out of the hand of the two kings of the Amorites who were beyond the Jordan, from the valley of the Arnon to mount Hermon
9 Zidonierne kalder Hermon Sirjon, men Amoriterne kalder det Senir
(the Sidonians call Hermon, Sirion, and the Amorites call it Senir),
10 alle Byerne på Højsletten, hele Gilead og hele Basan lige til Salka og Edrei, Byer i kong Ogs Rige i Basan.
all the cities of the plain, and all Gilead, and all Bashan, to Salecah and Edrei, cities of the kingdom of Og in Bashan.
11 Thi Kong Og af Basan var den eneste, der endnu var tilbage af Refaiterne; hans Kiste, en Jernkiste, står jo endnu i Rabba i Ammon, ni Alen lang og fire Alen bred efter vanligt Mål.
(For only Og king of Bashan remained of the remnant of the Rephaim. Behold, his bedstead was a bedstead of iron. Is it not in Rabbah of the sons of Ammon? Nine cubits was the length of it, and four cubits the breadth of it, after the cubit of a man.)
12 Således tog vi dengang dette Land i Besiddelse. Landet fra Aroer, der ligger ved Arnonfloden, og Halvdelen af Gileads Bjerge med Byerne der gav jeg Rubeniterne og Gaditerne;
And we took this land in possession at that time. From Aroer, which is by the valley of the Arnon, and half the hill-country of Gilead, and the cities of it, I gave to the Reubenites and to the Gadites.
13 men Resten af Gilead og hele Basan, Ogs Rige, gav jeg til Manasses halve Stamme, hele Landskabet Argob. (Det er hele dette Basan, man kalder Refaiterland.)
And the rest of Gilead, and all Bashan, the kingdom of Og, I gave to the half-tribe of Manasseh, all the region of Argob, even all Bashan. The same is called the land of Rephaim.
14 Manasses Søn Jair erobrede hele Landskabet Argob indtil Gesjuriternes og Ma'akatiternes Egne og kaldte dem Ja'irs Teltbyer efter sig selv, som de hedder endnu den Dag i Dag.
(Jair the son of Manasseh took all the region of Argob, to the border of the Geshurites and the Maacathites, and called them, even Bashan, after his own name, Havvoth-jair, to this day.)
15 Og Makir gav jeg Gilead;
And I gave Gilead to Machir.
16 og Rubeniterne og Gaditerne gav jeg Landet fra Gilead til Arnonfloden med Dalens Midtlinie som Grænse og til Jabbokfloden, Ammoniternes Grænse,
And I gave to the Reubenites and to the Gadites from Gilead even to the valley of the Arnon, the middle of the valley, and the border of it, even to the river Jabbok, which is the border of the sons of Ammon,
17 og Arabalavningen med Jordan som Grænse fra Kinneret til Arabaeller Salthavet ved Foden af Pisgas Skrænter mod Øst.
also the Arabah, and the Jordan and the border of it, from Chinnereth even to the sea of the Arabah, the Salt Sea, under the slopes of Pisgah eastward.
18 Dengang gav jeg eder følgende Påbud: "HERREN eders Gud har givet eder dette Land i Eje; men I skal, så mange krigsdygtige Mænd I er, drage væbnede i Spidsen for eders Brødre Israelitterne
And I commanded you at that time, saying, Jehovah your God has given you this land to possess it. Ye shall pass over armed before your brothers the sons of Israel, all the men of valor.
19 kun eders Kvinder, Børn og Kvæg (jeg ved, at I har meget Kvæg) skal blive tilbage i de Byer, jeg giver eder
But your wives, and your little ones, and your cattle, (I know that ye have much cattle, ) shall abide in your cities which I have given you
20 indtil HERREN bringer eders Brødre til Hvile ligesom eder, og de også får taget det Land i Besiddelse, som HERREN eders Gud vil give dem hinsides Jordan; så kan enhver af eder vende tilbage til den Ejendom, jeg har givet eder!"
until Jehovah gives rest to your brothers, as to you, and they also possess the land which Jehovah your God gives them beyond the Jordan, then ye shall return every man to his possession, which I have given you.
21 Og Josua gav jeg dengang følgende Påbud: "Du har med egne Øjne set alt, hvad HERREN eders Gud har gjort ved disse to Konger; således vil HERREN også gøre ved alle de Riger, du drager over til.
And I commanded Joshua at that time, saying, Thine eyes have seen all that Jehovah your God has done to these two kings. So shall Jehovah do to all the kingdoms where thou go over.
22 Du skal ikke frygte for dem; thi HERREN eders Gud vil selv kæmpe for eder!"
Ye shall not fear them, for Jehovah your God, he it is who fights for you.
23 Og dengang bad jeg således til HERREN:
And I besought Jehovah at that time, saying,
24 "Herre, HERRE! Du har begyndt at vise din Tjener din Storhed og din stærke Hånd! Thi hvem er den Gud i Himmelen og på Jorden, der kan gøre sådanne Gerninger og Storværker som du?
O lord Jehovah, thou have begun to show thy servant thy greatness, and thy strong hand, for what god is there in heaven or in earth, that can do according to thy works, and according to thy mighty acts?
25 Lad mig da få Lov at drage over og se det herlige Land hinsides Jordan, det herlige Bjergland og Libanon!"
Let me go over, I pray thee, and see the good land that is beyond the Jordan, that goodly mountain, and Lebanon.
26 Men HERREN var vred på mig for eders Skyld og hørte mig ikke, men han sagde til mig: "Lad det være nok, tal ikke mere til mig om den Sag;
But Jehovah was angry with me because of you, and did not hearken to me. And Jehovah said to me, It shall be enough for thee. Speak no more to me of this matter.
27 men stig op på Pisgas Tinde, løft dit Blik mod Vest og Nord, mod Syd og Øst, og tag det i Øjesyn. Thi du kommer ikke til at drage over Jordan dernede;
Get thee up to the top of Pisgah, and lift up thine eyes westward, and northward, and southward, and eastward, and behold with thine eyes, for thou shall not go over this Jordan.
28 men sig Josua, hvad han skal, og sæt Mod i ham og styrk ham, thi det bliver ham, der skal drage over i Spidsen for dette Folk, og ham, der skal give dem det Land, du ser, i Eje."
But charge Joshua, and encourage him, and strengthen him, for he shall go over before this people, and he shall cause them to inherit the land which thou shall see.
29 Så blev vi i Dalen lige over for Bet Peor.
So we abode in the valley opposite Beth-peor.
