< 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].
Sima, tobalukaki mpe tokendeki na nzela ya Bashani. Bongo Ogi, mokonzi ya Bashani, elongo na mampinga na ye nyonso babimaki mpo na kokutana na biso mpe babundisaki biso na Edreyi.
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].’
Yawe alobaki na ngai: « Kobanga ye te, pamba te nakabi ye na maboko na yo elongo na mampinga na ye nyonso mpe mokili na ye; sala ye ndenge osalaki Sikoni, mokonzi ya bato ya Amori, oyo azalaki kovanda na Eshiboni. »
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.
Boye Yawe, Nzambe na biso, akabaki lisusu Ogi, mokonzi ya Bashani, mpe mampinga na ye nyonso, na maboko na biso; mpe tobomaki bango, totikaki ata moto moko te.
4 There were 60 cities in that region near Argob, in King Og’s kingdom of Bashan. But we captured all of them
Na tango wana, tobotolaki bingumba na ye nyonso, totikaki ata engumba moko te kati na bingumba tuku motoba na etando ya Arigobi kati na mokili ya Ogi, mokonzi ya Bashani.
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].
Bingumba wana nyonso ezalaki ya kotongama makasi mpe ezalaki na bamir ya milayi mpe na bikuke oyo bakangaka na bibende mpe ezalaki lisusu na bamboka ebele oyo ezanga bamir.
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.
Boye, tobukaki yango nyonso ndenge tosalaki epai ya Sikoni, mokonzi ya Eshiboni. Tango tobukaki bingumba na ye, tobomaki mibali, basi mpe bana na ye.
7 But from those cities we took for ourselves all the livestock and other valuable things.
Kasi tomemaki mpo na biso bibwele mpe bomengo ya bitumba oyo tobotolaki na bingumba.
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].”
Boye, na tango wana, tozwaki na maboko ya bakonzi mibale ya bato ya Amori, mokili oyo ezalaki na ngambo ya este ya Yordani, wuta na lubwaku ya Arinoni kino koleka ngomba Erimoni.
9 (That mountain is called Sirion by the people of Sidon [city] and is called Senir by the Amor people-group.)
Bato ya Sidoni babengaka ngomba Erimoni Sirioni mpe bato ya Amori babengaka yango Seniri.
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.”
Tozwaki bingumba nyonso ya etando, Galadi nyonso mpe Bashani nyonso kino koleka bingumba ya Salika mpe ya Edreyi, bingumba ya Bashani epai wapi Ogi azalaki koyangela.
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.)
Nzokande Ogi, mokonzi ya Bashani, atikalaki kaka ye moko na bomoi kati na bato ya Refayimi. Mbeto na ye ezalaki ya bibende; molayi na yango ezalaki na bametele pene minei mpe mokuse na yango, bametele pene mibale. Mbeto yango ezali kino lelo na engumba Raba ya bato ya Amoni.
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.
Na tango wana, tobotolaki mokili yango. Napesaki epai ya bato ya libota ya Ribeni mpe ya libota ya Gadi mokili oyo ezalaki wuta na Aroeri, kati na lubwaku ya Arinoni kino ndambo ya etuka ya bangomba ya Galadi mpe bingumba na yango.
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.)
Ndambo oyo etikalaki na Galadi mpe nyonso mosusu ya Bashani, mokili ya Ogi, napesaki yango na ndambo ya libota ya Manase: Mokili nyonso ya Arigobi, oyo ezali na Bashani, eyebanaki lokola mokili ya bato ya Refayimi.
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.
Yairi, mokitani ya Manase, abotolaki etuka nyonso ya Arigobi kino na mondelo ya bato ya Geshuri mpe ya bato ya Maakati. Apesaki bamboka yango kombo na ye. Yango wana kino lelo babengaka Bashani bamboka ya Yairi.
15 The [northern part of the] Gilead [region] I allotted to the Machir [clan, who are descendants of the tribe of Manasseh].
Mpe napesaki Galadi epai ya Makiri.
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.
Kasi epai ya mabota ya Ribeni mpe ya Gadi, napesaki etando oyo ebanda wuta na Galadi, ekenda na lubwaku ya Arinoni mpe esalaki mondelo kino na ebale ya Yaboki oyo esalaki mondelo na mokili ya Amoni.
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.
Mondelo na yango ya weste ezalaki Yordani: wuta na Kinereti kino na ebale monene ya Araba, ebale monene ya Barozo, na se ya bangomba ya Pisiga na ngambo ya este.
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].
Na tango wana, napesaki bino mitindo oyo: « Yawe, Nzambe na bino, apesaki bino mokili oyo mpo ete bokamata yango. Kasi bato na bino nyonso oyo bazali na makoki ya kobunda balata bibundeli mpe baleka liboso ya bandeko na bino bana ya Isalaele.
19 But your wives and children and your very numerous cattle must stay in the towns that I have allotted to you.
Bobele basi na bino, bana na bino mpe ebele ya bibwele na bino nde bakotikala na bingumba oyo napesaki bino
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.’
kino tango Yawe akopesa bopemi epai ya bandeko na bino ndenge asalaki mpo na bino, mpe kino bango lisusu bakozwa mokili oyo Yawe, Nzambe na bino, apesi bango na ngambo mosusu ya Yordani. Sima na yango, bokozonga, moko na moko, na mabele oyo napesaki bino. »
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.
Na tango wana, nalobaki na Jozue: « Omonaki yo moko makambo oyo Yawe, Nzambe na bino, asalaki epai na bakonzi oyo mibale; akosala kaka ndenge moko na bikolo nyonso epai wapi bokoleka.
22 Do not be afraid of those people, because Yahweh our God is the one who will fight for you all.’”
Bobanga bango te, pamba te Yawe, Nzambe na bino, Ye moko akobundela bino. »
23 “At that time, I earnestly prayed, saying
Na tango wana, nabondelaki Yawe:
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].
— Oh Nkolo Yawe, obandaki kolakisa monene na Yo mpe nguya na Yo epai ya mosali na Yo. Pamba te nzambe nini na likolo mpe na se akoki kosala misala minene mpe makambo ya kokamwa lokola oyo Yo osali?
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.’
Nabondeli Yo, yokela ngai mawa mpo ete nakatisa Yordani mpo namona mokili oyo ya kitoko na ngambo mosusu, etuka kitoko ya bangomba mpe Libani.
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!
Kasi likolo na bino, Yawe asilikelaki ngai mpe aboyaki koyoka ngai. Alobaki na ngai: — Ekoki boye! Koloba na ngai lisusu likambo wana te.
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].
Mata na songe ya ngomba Pisiga mpe tala na ngambo ya weste, na nor, na sude mpe na este. Tala kaka mokili na miso kasi okotikala kokatisa Yordani te.
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].’
Pesa mitindo na Jozue, pesa ye makasi mpe lendisa ye; pamba te ye nde akokamba bato oyo mpe akosala ete bazwa lokola libula mokili oyo ozali komona.
29 So we remained in the [Jordan River] Valley close to Beth-Peor [town].”
Bongo tovandaki na lubwaku oyo etalani na Beti-Peori.
