< Deuteronomy 3 >

1 And we turned, and went up the way to Bashan; and Og the king of Bashan came out against us, he and all his people, for battle at Edrei.
Azɔ míetrɔ ɖo ta Ɔg, Basan fia ƒe anyigba dzi. Ɔg ƒo eƒe aʋakɔ nu ƒu enumake eye wokpe aʋa kpli mí le Edrei.
2 And Jehovah said to me, Fear him not; for into thy hand have I given him, and all his people, and his land; and thou shalt do unto him as thou didst unto Sihon the king of the Amorites, who dwelt at Heshbon.
Ke Yehowa gblɔ nam be, “Mègavɔ̃e o, elabena matsɔ eya ŋutɔ kple eƒe aʋakɔ blibo la kpakple eƒe anyigba blibo la ade asi na wò; eye nawɔe abe ale si nèwɔ Fia Sixɔn, Amoritɔwo ƒe fia, le Hesbon ene.”
3 And Jehovah our God gave into our hand Og the king of Bashan also, and all his people; and we smote him until none was left to him remaining.
Ale Yehowa miaƒe Mawu tsɔ Ɔg, Basan fia hã kple eƒe dukɔ blibo la de asi na mi, eye míewu wo katã, ale be ame aɖeke metsi agbe ahayi sisi ge o.
4 And we took all his cities at that time: there was not a town which we took not from them, sixty cities, the whole region of Argob, the kingdom of Og in Bashan.
Míexɔ eƒe du blaadeawo katã kple Basan ƒe to si woyɔna be Argob.
5 All these cities were fortified with high walls, gates, and bars; besides unwalled towns very many.
Woɖo gli kɔkɔwo ƒo xlã du siawo, eye wode gakpogbowo wo nu. Míexɔ du siwo katã womeɖo gli ƒo xlãe o la hã.
6 And we utterly destroyed them, as we had done to Sihon the king of Heshbon, utterly destroying every city, men, women and little ones.
Míetsrɔ̃ Basan fiaɖuƒe la keŋkeŋ abe ale si míetsrɔ̃ Fia Sixɔn ƒe fiaɖuƒe le Hesbon ene, eye míewu ameawo katã, ŋutsuwo, nyɔnuwo kple ɖeviwo siaa.
7 But all the cattle and the spoil of the cities we took as booty for ourselves.
Ke mieha woƒe nyiwo kple afunyinuwo na mía ɖokuiwo.
8 And we took at that time the land out of the hand of the two kings of the Amorites, that were on this side the Jordan, from the river Arnon to mount Hermon
Azɔ la, Amoritɔwo ƒe fia eveawo ƒe anyigba si le Yɔdan tɔsisi la ƒe go kemɛ dzi la zu mía tɔ. Anyigba sia tso Arnon ƒe balime yi Hermon to la gbɔ.
9 (the Sidonians call Hermon Sirion, and the Amorites call it Senir):
(Sidontɔwo yɔa Hermon to la be Sirion le esime Amoritɔwo yɔe be Senir.)
10 all the cities of the plateau, and all Gilead, and all Bashan, as far as Salchah and Edrei, the cities of the kingdom of Og in Bashan.
Míexɔ du siwo katã le tonyigba la dzi kple esiwo le Gilead kple Basan azɔ va se ɖe keke Saleka kple Edrei.
11 For only Og the king of Bashan remained of the residue of giants: behold, his bedstead was a bedstead of iron; is it not in Rabbah of the children of Ammon? its length was nine cubits, and its breadth four cubits, after the cubit of a man.
(Ɔg, Basan fiae nye ame dzɔtsu, Refaimtɔwo ƒe mamlɛtɔ. Wotsɔ eƒe gabati dzra ɖo ɖe nuwo dzraɖoƒe le Raba, si nye Amonitɔwo ƒe duwo dometɔ ɖeka me. Gabati sia didi afɔ wuietɔ̃ kple afã, eye wòkeke afɔ ade.)
12 And this land we took in possession at that time. From Aroer, which is by the river Arnon, and the half of mount Gilead, and its cities, I gave to the Reubenites and to the Gadites;
Míetsɔ anyigba si míexɔ la na Ruben ƒe viwo kple Gad ƒe viwo kple Manase ƒe to afã la ƒe viwo. Metsɔ anyiehenyigba si tso Areor le Arnon tɔsisi la gbɔ kple Gilead to la ƒe afã kple eƒe duwo na Ruben ƒe viwo kple Gad ƒe viwo.
13 and the rest of Gilead, and all Bashan, the kingdom of Og, I gave to half the tribe of Manasseh. (The whole region of Argob, even all Bashan, is called a land of giants.
Manase ƒe viwo xɔ Gilead ƒe akpa mamlɛtɔ kple teƒe si Fia Ɔg ƒe fiaɖuƒe nɔ le Argob nuto me. Woyɔa Basan ɣe aɖewo ɣi be, “Refaim ƒe Anyigba.”
14 Jair the son of Manasseh took the whole region of Argob as far as the border of the Geshurites and Maachathites, and called Bashan after his own name, Havoth-Jair, to this day.)
Manase ƒe hlɔ̃ si woyɔna be Yair la xɔ Argob nuto me blibo la, si nye Basan va se ɖe Gesuritɔwo kple Makatitɔwo ƒe liƒowo dzi. Wotsɔ woawo ŋutɔwo ƒe ŋkɔ na anyigba la be Havɔt Yair si gɔmee nye “Yair ƒe Kɔƒewo” abe ale si wogayɔa wo egbegbe ene.
15 And I gave Gilead to Machir.
Metsɔ Gilead na Makir ƒe hlɔ̃.
16 And to the Reubenites and to the Gadites I gave from Gilead even to the river Arnon, the middle of the ravine and its border, as far as the river Jabbok, the border of the children of Ammon;
Ruben kple Gad ƒe towo xɔ anyigba tso Yabok tɔsisi la ŋu le Gilead, afi si Amonitɔwo ƒe anyigba dze egɔme tso va se ɖe Arnon tɔsisi la ƒe balime ƒe titina.
17 the plain also, and the Jordan, and [its] border from Chinnereth as far as the sea of the plain, the salt sea, under the slopes of Pisgah eastward.
Woxɔ Araba gbegbe si Yɔdan tɔsisi la do liƒo na le ɣetoɖoƒe, tso Kineret va se ɖe Pisga kple Dzeƒu la, si wogayɔna be Araba ƒu la ŋu.
18 And I commanded you at that time, saying, Jehovah your God hath given you this land to take possession of it: ye shall pass over armed before your brethren the children of Israel, all [who are] combatants.
Mede se na mi be, “Yehowa, miaƒe Mawu, tsɔ anyigba sia na mi, ne woanye mia tɔ. Mi kalẽtɔwo katã mibla akpa dze mia nɔvi Israelviwo ŋgɔ.
19 Only 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,
Ke mia srɔ̃wo kple mia viwo ya ate ŋu anɔ afi sia le du siwo metsɔ na mi la me; woanɔ miaƒe nyiwo dzi kpɔm
20 until Jehovah give rest to your brethren, as well as to you, and they also take possession of the land that Jehovah your God giveth them beyond the Jordan; then shall ye return, each man to his possession, which I have given you.
va se ɖe esime miatrɔ agbɔ, eye mana to bubuawo hã naɖu woƒe futɔwo dzi. Ne woxɔ anyigba si Yehowa, míaƒe Mawu la tsɔ na wo le Yɔdan tɔsisi la godo la, ekema miate ŋu atrɔ va afi sia, si nye miawo ŋutɔ ƒe anyigba la dzi.”
21 And I commanded Joshua at that time, saying, Thine eyes have seen all that Jehovah your God hath done to these two kings: so will Jehovah do to all the kingdoms to which thou shalt go.
Megblɔ na Yosua be, “Wò ŋutɔ èkpɔ nu si Yehowa miaƒe Mawu wɔ fia eve mawo. Miwɔ nu ma tɔgbi ke fiaɖuƒe siwo le Yɔdan tɔsisi la godo.
22 Ye shall not fear them; for Jehovah your God, he will fight for you.
Mègavɔ̃ dukɔ siwo le afi ma la o, elabena Yehowa, wò Mawu la awɔ aʋa na wò.”
23 And I besought Jehovah at that time, saying,
Meƒo koko sia na Yehowa le ɣe ma ɣi be,
24 Lord Jehovah, thou hast begun to shew thy servant thy greatness, and thy powerful hand; for what God is in the heavens or in the earth that can do like to thy works, and like to thy might?
“Aƒetɔ Yehowa, wò ŋutɔ ède asi wò gãnyenye kple wò abɔ sesẽ la ɖeɖe fia wò subɔla me xoxo, elabena Mawu kae le dziƒo alo anyigba dzi si ate ŋu awɔ wò nuwɔna siawo tɔgbi?
25 Let me go over, I pray thee, and see the good land that is beyond the Jordan, that goodly mountain, and Lebanon.
Meɖe kuku na wò, na made anyigba nyui si le Yɔdan tɔsisi la godo la dzi dzro, be makpɔ to nyui ma kple Lebanon.”
26 But Jehovah was wroth with me on your account, and did not hear me; and Jehovah said to me, Let it suffice thee; speak no more unto me of this matter!
Ke Yehowa do dɔmedzoe ɖe ŋunye le miawo ta, eye meɖe mɔ nam be matso tɔsisi la o. Eɖe gbe nam be, “Esɔ gbɔ, mègaƒo nu tso nya sia ŋu azɔ o,
27 Go up to the top of Pisgah, and lift up thine eyes westward, and northward, and southward, and eastward, and behold it with thine eyes; for thou shalt not go over this Jordan.
ke boŋ yi Pisga to la tame, afi si nàte ŋu ɣetoɖoƒe kple anyiehe, dziehe kple ɣedzeƒe gome ɖa; àkpɔ anyigba la le didiƒe tso afi ma. Ke màtso Yɔdan tɔsisi la o.
28 But charge Joshua, and encourage him and strengthen him; for he shall go over before this people, and he shall put them in possession of the land which thou shalt see.
Na Yosua naxɔ ɖe tewòƒe. De dzi ƒo nɛ, elabena eyae akplɔ ameawo atso tɔsisi la be woaxɔ anyigba si nàkpɔ tso to la tame.”
29 And we abode in the valley opposite to Beth-Peor.
Míetsi bali la me le Bet Peor kasa.
