< Deuteronomy 3 >

1 “Then we turned [north] and went toward the Bashan region. Og, the king [of that area], and all his soldiers marched [south] to fight against us at Edrei [town].
itaque conversi ascendimus per iter Basan egressusque est Og rex Basan in occursum nobis cum populo suo ad bellandum in Edrai
2 Yahweh said to me, ‘Do not be afraid of him, because I will enable your [army] to defeat [MTY] him and all his army and to capture all their land. Do to him what you did to Sihon, the king of the Amor people-group, who ruled in Heshbon [city].’
dixitque Dominus ad me ne timeas eum quia in manu tua traditus est cum omni populo ac terra sua faciesque ei sicut fecisti Seon regi Amorreorum qui habitavit in Esebon
3 “So Yahweh enabled us to defeat [IDM] King Og and all his army. We killed them all; we did not allow any of them to remain alive.
tradidit ergo Dominus Deus noster in manibus nostris etiam Og regem Basan et universum populum eius percussimusque eos usque ad internicionem
4 There were 60 cities in that region near Argob, in King Og’s kingdom of Bashan. But we captured all of them
vastantes cunctas civitates illius uno tempore non fuit oppidum quod nos effugeret sexaginta urbes omnem regionem Argob regni Og in Basan
5 All those cities had high walls [around them] with gates and bars. We also captured many villages that did not have walls [around them].
cunctae urbes erant munitae muris altissimis portisque et vectibus absque oppidis innumeris quae non habebant muros
6 We completely destroyed everything, just as we had done [in the area that] King Sihon ruled. We killed all the men, women, and children.
et delevimus eos sicut feceramus Seon regi Esebon disperdentes omnem civitatem virosque ac mulieres et parvulos
7 But from those cities we took for ourselves all the livestock and other valuable things.
iumenta autem et spolia urbium diripuimus
8 “So at that time we took from those two kings of the Amor people-group all the land east of the Jordan [River], from the Arnon [River] gorge [in the south] to Hermon Mountain [in the north].”
tulimusque illo in tempore terram de manu duorum regum Amorreorum qui erant trans Iordanem a torrente Arnon usque ad montem Hermon
9 (That mountain is called Sirion by the people of Sidon [city] and is called Senir by the Amor people-group.)
quem Sidonii Sarion vocant et Amorrei Sanir
10 “We captured all the towns on the (plateau/high level land), and all the Gilead [region], and all the Bashan [region] as far east as Edrei and Salecah towns, which also belonged to Og’s kingdom.”
omnes civitates quae sitae sunt in planitie et universam terram Galaad et Basan usque Selcha et Edrai civitates regni Og in Basan
11 (Og was the last king who was a descendant of the Repha giants. His bed was made of iron. It was almost (14 feet/4 meters) long and (6 feet/2 meters) wide. It is still [RHQ] in Rabbah [city] in the Ammon area.)
solus quippe Og rex Basan restiterat de stirpe gigantum monstratur lectus eius ferreus qui est in Rabbath filiorum Ammon novem cubitos habens longitudinis et quattuor latitudinis ad mensuram cubiti virilis manus
12 “From the land that we captured at that time, I allotted to the tribes of Reuben and Gad the land [north] of Aroer [town] near the Arnon [River], and some of the hilly area of the Gilead [region], along with the nearby towns.
terramque possedimus in tempore illo ab Aroer quae est super ripam torrentis Arnon usque ad mediam partem montis Galaad et civitates illius dedi Ruben et Gad
13 The other part of the Gilead [region] and all of the Bashan [region], which was the Argob [region] that King Og had ruled, I allotted to half of the tribe of Manasseh.” (The entire Bashan [region] is called the land of the Repha giants.)
reliquam autem partem Galaad et omnem Basan regni Og tradidi mediae tribui Manasse omnem regionem Argob cuncta Basan vocatur terra gigantum
14 “Jair, from the tribe of Manasseh, conquered all the Bashan area as far [north] as the border of the Geshur and Maacah territories. He gave his own name to the villages there, and they are still called the villages of Jair.
Iair filius Manasse possedit omnem regionem Argob usque ad terminos Gesuri et Machathi vocavitque ex nomine suo Basan Avothiair id est villas Iair usque in praesentem diem
15 The [northern part of the] Gilead [region] I allotted to the Machir [clan, who are descendants of the tribe of Manasseh].
Machir quoque dedi Galaad
16 I allotted to the tribes of Reuben and Gad the southern part of the Gilead [region, extending south] to the Arnon [River]. The middle of the river is the [southern] boundary. The [northern] boundary is the Jabbok River, which is part of the border of the Ammon area.
et tribubus Ruben et Gad dedi terram Galaad usque ad torrentem Arnon medium torrentis et finium usque ad torrentem Ieboc qui est terminus filiorum Ammon
17 [To the west their territory extended] to the Jordan [River] Valley, from Galilee Lake [in the north] to the Dead Sea [in the south] and to the slopes of Pisgah [Mountain] to the east.
et planitiem solitudinis atque Iordanem et terminos Chenereth usque ad mare Deserti quod est Salsissimum ad radices montis Phasga contra orientem
18 At that time, I told you three tribes, ‘Yahweh our God is giving you this land [east of the Jordan River], for you to occupy/capture. So now, give your soldiers weapons, and send them [across the Jordan River] ahead of the men from the other Israeli tribes [to help them to conquer/capture the land that has been allotted to them].
praecepique vobis in tempore illo dicens Dominus Deus vester dat vobis terram hanc in hereditatem expediti praecedite fratres vestros filios Israhel omnes viri robusti
19 But your wives and children and your very numerous cattle must stay in the towns that I have allotted to you.
absque uxoribus et parvulis ac iumentis novi enim quod plura habeatis pecora et in urbibus remanere debebunt quas tradidi vobis
20 [Your men must help your fellow Israelis] until Yahweh enables them to live there peacefully after they capture all the land that Yahweh our God is giving to them on the west side of the Jordan [River], just like he did for you [here on the east side of the river]. After that, you all may return to this land that I have allotted to you.’
donec requiem tribuat Dominus fratribus vestris sicut vobis tribuit et possideant etiam ipsi terram quam daturus est eis trans Iordanem tunc revertetur unusquisque in possessionem suam quam dedi vobis
21 And I told Joshua, ‘You [SYN] have seen everything that Yahweh our God did to those two kings, [Sihon and Og]. He will do the same thing to the people [who are now] in the land that you will be entering.
Iosue quoque in tempore illo praecepi dicens oculi tui viderunt quae fecit Dominus Deus vester duobus his regibus sic faciet omnibus regnis ad quae transiturus es
22 Do not be afraid of those people, because Yahweh our God is the one who will fight for you all.’”
ne timeas eos Dominus enim Deus vester pugnabit pro vobis
23 “At that time, I earnestly prayed, saying
precatusque sum Dominum in tempore illo dicens
24 ‘Yahweh our Lord, you have merely begun to show me that you are very great and to show me the powerful things that you can do [MTY]. There is certainly no [RHQ] god in heaven or on earth who can do the powerful things/deeds that you [have done].
Domine Deus tu coepisti ostendere servo tuo magnitudinem tuam manumque fortissimam neque enim est alius Deus vel in caelo vel in terra qui possit facere opera tua et conparari fortitudini tuae
25 So please allow me to cross the Jordan [River] and to see the good/fertile land on the west side, the beautiful hilly area and [the mountains in] Lebanon.’
transibo igitur et videbo terram hanc optimam trans Iordanem et montem istum egregium et Libanum
26 But Yahweh was angry with me because of [what] your ancestors [had made me do], so he would not pay attention to me. Instead, he said, ‘That is enough [talk from you]! Do not talk to me about that again!
iratusque est Dominus mihi propter vos nec exaudivit me sed dixit mihi sufficit tibi nequaquam ultra loquaris de hac re ad me
27 Climb up to the top of Pisgah [Mountain] and look toward the west and to the east, toward the north and to the south. Look at [MTY] it all carefully, because you will not cross the Jordan [River to see the land from there].
ascende cacumen Phasgae et oculos tuos circumfer ad occidentem et aquilonem austrumque et orientem et aspice nec enim transibis Iordanem istum
28 But tell Joshua what he must do and encourage him to be strong, because he is the one who will lead the people [across the river in order that they can] occupy/capture the land that you will see [from the top of the mountain].’
praecipe Iosue et corrobora eum atque conforta quia ipse praecedet populum istum et dividet eis terram quam visurus es
29 So we remained in the [Jordan River] Valley close to Beth-Peor [town].”
mansimusque in valle contra fanum Phogor
