< Deuteronomy 3 >
1 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.
Derpaa brød vi op og drog mod Basan. Og Kong Og af Basan rykkede med alle sine Krigere ud imod os til Kamp ved Edre'i.
2 Jehovah said to me, "Do not fear him; for I have delivered him, and all his people, and his land, into your hand; and you shall do to him as you did to Sihon king of the Amorites, who lived at Heshbon."
Da sagde HERREN til mig: »Frygt ikke for ham, thi jeg giver ham i din Haand tillige med hele hans Folk og Land, og du skal gøre ved ham, som du gjorde ved Sihon, Amoriterkongen i Hesjbon.«
3 So Jehovah our God delivered into our hand Og also, the king of Bashan, and all his people: and we struck him until none was left to him remaining.
Saa gav HERREN vor Gud ogsaa Kong Og af Basan og alle hans Krigere i vor Haand, og vi slog ham, saa ikke en eneste undslap.
4 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.
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,
5 All these were cities fortified with high walls, gates, and bars; besides the unwalled towns a great many.
lutter Byer, der var befæstet med høje Mure, Porte og Portslaaer, foruden de mange aabne Byer;
6 We utterly destroyed them, as we did to Sihon king of Heshbon, utterly destroying every inhabited city, with the women and the little ones.
og vi lagde Band paa dem, ligesom vi havde gjort ved Kong Sihon i Hesjbon, i enhver By lagde vi Band paa Mænd, Kvinder og Børn;
7 But all the livestock, and the spoil of the cities, we took for a prey to ourselves.
men alt Kvæget, og hvad vi røvede fra Byerne, tog vi selv som Bytte.
8 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.
Saaledes erobrede vi dengang Landet fra de to Amoriterkonger hinsides Jordan fra Arnonfloden til Hermonbjerget —
9 (The Sidonians call Hermon Sirion, and the Amorites call it Senir.)
Zidonierne kalder Hermon Sirjon, men Amoriterne kalder det Senir —
10 We took all the cities of the plain, and all Gilead, and all Bashan, to Salecah and Edrei, cities of the kingdom of Og in Bashan.
alle Byerne paa Højsletten, hele Gilead og hele Basan lige til Salka og Edre'i, Byer i Kong Ogs Rige i Basan.
11 (For only Og king of Bashan remained of the remnant of the Rephaim; look, his bedstead was a bedstead of iron; isn't it in Rabbah of the people of Ammon? Thirteen feet three inches was its length, and five feet eleven inches its breadth, according to the standard measure.)
(Thi Kong Og af Basan var den eneste, der endnu var tilbage af Refaiterne; hans Kiste, en Jernkiste, staar jo endnu i Rabba i Ammon, ni Alen lang og fire Alen bred efter vanligt Maal.)
12 This land we took in possession at that time: from Aroer, which is by the Valley of the Arnon, and half the hill country of Gilead, and its cities, gave I to the Reubenites and to the Gadites:
Saaledes 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;
13 and the rest of Gilead, and all Bashan, the kingdom of Og, gave I to the half-tribe of Manasseh. All the region of Argob, with all Bashan, was called the land of Rephaim.
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.)
14 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.)
Manasses Søn Ja'ir 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.
15 I gave Gilead to Makir.
Og Makir gav jeg Gilead;
16 To the Reubenites and to the Gadites I gave from Gilead to the Valley of the Arnon, the middle of the valley, and its border, even to the river Jabbok, which is the border of the people of Ammon;
og Rubeniterne og Gaditerne gav jeg Landet fra Gilead til Arnonfloden med Dalens Midtlinie som Grænse og til Jabbokfloden, Ammoniternes Grænse,
17 the Arabah also, and the Jordan and its border, from Kinnereth even to the sea of the Arabah, the Salt Sea, under the slopes of Pisgah eastward.
og Arabalavningen med Jordan som Grænse fra Kinneret til Araba— eller Salthavet ved Foden af Pisgas Skrænter mod Øst.
18 I commanded you at that time, saying, "Jehovah your God has given you this land to possess it: you shall pass over armed before your brothers the children of Israel, all the men of valor.
Dengang gav jeg eder følgende Paabud: »HERREN eders Gud har givet eder dette Land i Eje; men I skal, saa mange krigsdygtige Mænd I er, drage væbnede i Spidsen for eders Brødre Israeliterne —
19 But your wives, and your little ones, and your livestock, (I know that you have much livestock), shall live in your cities which I have given you,
kun eders Kvinder, Børn og Kvæg (jeg ved, at I har meget Kvæg) skal blive tilbage i de Byer, jeg giver eder —
20 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 you shall return every man to his possession, which I have given you."
indtil HERREN bringer eders Brødre til Hvile ligesom eder, og de ogsaa faar taget det Land i Besiddelse, som HERREN eders Gud vil give dem hinsides Jordan; saa kan enhver af eder vende tilbage til den Ejendom, jeg har givet eder!«
21 I commanded Joshua at that time, saying, "Your eyes have seen all that Jehovah your God has done to these two kings: so shall Jehovah do to all the kingdoms where you go over.
Og Josua gav jeg dengang følgende Paabud: »Du har med egne Øjne set alt, hvad HERREN eders Gud har gjort ved disse to Konger; saaledes vil HERREN ogsaa gøre ved alle de Riger, du drager over til.
22 Do not fear them, for Jehovah your God himself will fight for you."
Du skal ikke frygte for dem; thi HERREN eders Gud vil selv kæmpe for eder!«
23 I begged Jehovah at that time, saying,
Og dengang bad jeg saaledes til HERREN:
24 "Lord Jehovah, you have begun to show your servant your greatness, and your strong hand: for what god is there in heaven or in earth, that can do according to your works, and according to your mighty acts?
»Herre, HERRE! Du har begyndt at vise din Tjener din Storhed og din stærke Haand! Thi hvem er den Gud i Himmelen og paa Jorden, der kan gøre saadanne Gerninger og Storværker som du?
25 Please let me go over and see the good land that is beyond the Jordan, that good hill country, and Lebanon."
Lad mig da faa Lov at drage over og se det herlige Land hinsides Jordan, det herlige Bjergland og Libanon!«
26 But Jehovah was angry with me for your sakes, and did not listen to me; and Jehovah said to me, "Enough from you; speak no more to me of this matter.
Men HERREN var vred paa 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;
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 shall not go over this Jordan.
men stig op paa 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;
28 But commission 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 you shall see."
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.«
29 So we stayed in the valley over against Beth Peor.
Saa blev vi i Dalen lige over for Bet-Peor.
