< Deuteronomy 3 >

1 “And we turn and go up the way to Bashan, and Og king of Bashan comes out to meet us, he and all his people, to the 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 YHWH says to me, Do not fear him, for I have given him, and all his people, and his land into your hand, and you have done to him as you have done to Sihon king of the Amorite who is dwelling in 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 our God YHWH indeed gives Og king of Bashan and all his people into our hands, and we strike him until there has been no remnant left to him;
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 capture all his cities at that time; there has not been a city which we have not taken from them—sixty cities, all the 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 [are] cities fortified with high walls, double gates, and bar, apart from very many cities of the open place;
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 devote them, as we have done to Sihon king of Heshbon, devoting [the] men, the women, and the infants of every city;
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 and all the livestock, and the spoil of the cities, we have spoiled for ourselves.
Ke mieha woƒe nyiwo kple afunyinuwo na mía ɖokuiwo.
8 And at that time we take the land out of the hand of the two kings of the Amorite, which is beyond the Jordan, from the Brook of 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 (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 plain, and all Gilead, and all Bashan, as far as Salchah and Edrei, 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 king of Bashan had been left of the remnant of the Rephaim; behold, his bedstead [is] a bedstead of iron. Is it not in Rabbath of the sons of Ammon? Its length [is] nine cubits and its breadth [is] four cubits, by 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, [which] we had possessed at that time, from Aroer, which [is] by the Brook of Arnon, and the half of Mount Gilead and its cities, I have given to the Reubenite and to the Gadite;
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 have given to the half tribe of Manasseh; all the region of Argob, with all Bashan—it is called the land of [the] Rephaim.
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 son of Manasseh has taken all the region of Argob, as far as the border of Geshuri and Maachathi ([namely] Bashan), and calls them by 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 have given Gilead to Machir.
Metsɔ Gilead na Makir ƒe hlɔ̃.
16 And to the Reubenite and to the Gadite I have given from Gilead even to the Brook of Arnon, the middle of the valley and the border, even to the Brook of Jabbok, the border of the sons 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 and the plain, and the Jordan, and the border, from Chinnereth even to the Sea of the Plain (the Salt Sea), under the Springs of Pisgah, at the [sun]-rising.
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 at that time I command you, saying, Your God YHWH has given this land to you to possess it; you pass over armed before your brothers the sons of Israel, all the sons of might.
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 infants, and your livestock—I have known that you have much livestock—dwell in your cities which I have given to 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 YHWH gives rest to your brothers like yourselves, and they also have possessed the land which your God YHWH is giving to them beyond the Jordan; then you have each turned back to his possession which I have given to 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 have commanded Joshua at that time, saying, Your eyes are seeing all that which your God YHWH has done to these two kings—so YHWH does to all the kingdoms to where you are passing over;
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 do not fear them, for your God YHWH—He is fighting for you.
Mègavɔ̃ dukɔ siwo le afi ma la o, elabena Yehowa, wò Mawu la awɔ aʋa na wò.”
23 And to YHWH I beg for grace at that time, saying,
Meƒo koko sia na Yehowa le ɣe ma ɣi be,
24 Lord YHWH, You have begun to show Your servant Your greatness and Your strong hand; for who [is] a god in the heavens or in earth who does according to Your works and according to Your 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 Please let me pass over and see the good land which [is] beyond the Jordan, this good hill-country, 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 And YHWH shows Himself angry with me for your sake, and has not listened to me, and YHWH says to me, Enough of you; do not add to speak to Me about this thing anymore;
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 your eyes westward, and northward, and southward, and eastward, and see with your eyes, for you do not pass 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 and charge Joshua, and strengthen him, and harden him, for he passes over before this people, and he causes them to inherit the land which you 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 dwell in a valley opposite Beth-Peor.”
Míetsi bali la me le Bet Peor kasa.
