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].
Tomando otro rumbo subimos camino de Basan. Mas salió contra nosotros Og, rey de Basan, él y todo su pueblo, a dar batalla en Edreí.
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].’
Entonces me dijo Yahvé: ‘No le temas, pues le he entregado en tus manos, tanto a él como a su pueblo y su tierra. Harás con él como hiciste con Sehón, rey de los amorreos, que habitaba en Hesbón.’
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.
Y Yahvé nuestro Dios entregó en vuestra mano también a Og, rey de Basan, y a todo su pueblo; y lo derrotamos sin que nadie le quedase con vida.
4 There were 60 cities in that region near Argob, in King Og’s kingdom of Bashan. But we captured all of them
Conquistarnos entonces todas sus ciudades; no hubo ciudad que no les quitásemos: sesenta ciudades, toda la región de Argob, el reino de Og en 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].
Todas estas eran ciudades fortificadas, con muy altas murallas, con puertas y cerrojos; sin contar las ciudades sin muros, que eran muy numerosas.
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.
Las consagramos al exterminio, como habíamos hecho con Sehón, rey de Hesbón, acabando completamente con cada ciudad, hombres, mujeres y niños.
7 But from those cities we took for ourselves all the livestock and other valuable things.
Para nosotros tomamos por botín todo el ganado y los despojos de las ciudades.
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].”
Con lo que tomamos en aquel tiempo a los dos reyes amorreos, el país de la otra parte del Jordán, desde el torrente Arnón hasta el monte Hermón:
9 (That mountain is called Sirion by the people of Sidon [city] and is called Senir by the Amor people-group.)
—los sidonios llaman al Hermón Sirión, y los amorreos lo llaman 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.”
todas las ciudades de la llanura, todo Galaad y todo Basan hasta Salea y Edreí, ciudades de Og en 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.)
Pues solo Og, rey de Basan, había quedado del resto de los gigantes. He aquí su cama, cama de hierro, ¿no está todavía en Rabbat de los amonitas? Su longitud es de nueve codos y su ancho de cuatro codos, según el codo ordinario.
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.
En aquel tiempo tomamos posesión de este país. A los rubenitas y a los gaditas les di la región desde Aroer, situada sobre el torrente Arnón, y la mitad de la montaña de Galaad y sus ciudades.
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.)
El resto de Galaad, y todo Basan, reino de Og, lo di a la media tribu de Manasés, toda la región de Argob. Todo el Basan se llama país de gigantes.
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.
Jaír, hijo de Manasés, ocupó toda la región de Argob, hasta la frontera de los gesureos y los maacateos, dando a (esta parte de) Basan su nombre: Havot Jaír, hasta el día de hoy.
15 The [northern part of the] Gilead [region] I allotted to the Machir [clan, who are descendants of the tribe of Manasseh].
A Maquir le di 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.
A los rubenitas y a los gaditas, ya les había dado el país desde Galaad hasta el torrente Arnón, con la mitad del valle como límite y hasta el torrente Yaboc, frontera de los amonitas;
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.
también el Arabá con el Jordán como límite, desde Kinéret hasta el Mar del Arabá, el Mar Salado, al pie de las vertientes del Fasga, al oriente.
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].
En aquel tiempo os di esta orden: ‘Yahvé, vuestro Dios, os ha dado este país para que sea heredad vuestra. Marchad, pues, armados, todos los hombres de guerra, delante de vuestros hermanos, los hijos de Israel.
19 But your wives and children and your very numerous cattle must stay in the towns that I have allotted to you.
Mas vuestras mujeres y vuestros niños y vuestro ganado —yo sé que tenéis mucho ganado— quedarán en vuestras ciudades que os he dado,
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.’
hasta que Yahvé haya dado descanso a vuestros hermanos, así como a vosotros, y posean también ellos la tierra que Yahvé, vuestro Dios, les va a dar al otro lado del Jordán; entonces volveréis cada uno a la herencia que os he dado.’
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.
En aquel tiempo di órdenes a Josué, diciendo: ‘Tus ojos han visto todo lo que Yahvé, tu Dios, ha hecho con estos dos reyes; así hará Yahvé con todos los reinos contra los cuales has de marchar.
22 Do not be afraid of those people, because Yahweh our God is the one who will fight for you all.’”
No los temáis, porque Yahvé, vuestro Dios, es quien pelea por vosotros.’
23 “At that time, I earnestly prayed, saying
En aquel tiempo yo supliqué a Yahvé, diciendo:
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].
‘Señor Yahvé, Tú has comenzado a mostrar a tu siervo tu grandeza y tu poderoso brazo; pues ¿qué Dios hay en el cielo o en la tierra que pueda hacer las obras y las proezas que haces Tú?
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.’
Déjame, te ruego, pasar y ver aquella excelente tierra que está al otro lado del Jordán, aquella hermosa montaña y el Líbano.’
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!
Pero Yahvé enojado contra mí por culpa vuestra, no me escuchó, sino que me dijo: ‘Basta ya; no me hables más de esto.
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].
Sube a la cumbre del Fasga, y alza tus ojos hacia el occidente, y hacia el aquilón, y hacia el mediodía, y hacia el oriente, y contémplala con tus ojos; pues no pasarás este Jordán.
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].’
Da órdenes a Josué, fortalécele, e inspírale ánimo, pues él es quien ha de pasar al frente de este pueblo, y él les repartirá el país que tú puedes ver solamente.’
29 So we remained in the [Jordan River] Valley close to Beth-Peor [town].”
Y nos quedamos en el valle, frente a Betfegor.
