Deuteronomy 3
1 Then we turned and went up the way to Bashan. Og, the king of Bashan, came and attacked us, he and all his people, to fight at Edrei.
Afei, yɛde yɛn ani kyerɛɛ Basan ɛkwan so. Basanhene Og ne nʼasraadɔm firi bɛhyiaa yɛn wɔ Edrei ne yɛn koeɛ.
2 Yahweh said to me, 'Do not fear him; for I have given you victory over him and have put all his people and his land under your control. You will do to him as you did to Sihon, king of the Amorites, who lived at Heshbon.'
Nanso, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ me sɛ, “Nsuro no, ɛfiri sɛ, mede ɔno ne nʼakodɔm ne nʼasase nyinaa ahyɛ wo nsa. Asɛm a ɛtoo Amorifoɔhene Sihon wɔ Hesbon no, saa asɛm korɔ no ara bi na ɛbɛto no.”
3 So Yahweh our God also gave us victory over Og the king of Bashan, and all his people were put under our control. We struck them down until not one of his people remained.
Enti, Awurade, yɛn Onyankopɔn, sane de Basanhene Og ne nʼakodɔm nyinaa hyɛɛ yɛn nsa. Yɛbɔɔ wɔn guiɛ a anka wɔn mu baako koraa.
4 We took all his cities at that time. There was not one of the sixty cities that we did not take from them—all the region of Argob, the kingdom of Og in Bashan.
Saa ɛberɛ no, yɛfaa wɔn nkuropɔn nyinaa. Nkuropɔn aduosia no mu baako koraa nni hɔ a yɛannye amfiri wɔn nsam. Argob mantam a ɛyɛ Og ahenkuro wɔ Basan nyinaa ka ho.
5 These were all cities fortified with high walls, gates, and bars; this was besides very many unwalled villages.
Saa nkuropɔn yi nyinaa, na wɔato afasuo atentene afa ho de nnadeɛ apono atoto ano. Saa ɛberɛ korɔ no ara mu, yɛfaa nkuraa a na wɔntoo afasuo mfaa ho bebree.
6 We completely destroyed them, as we did to Sihon king of Heshbon, completely destroying every city—men and the women and the little ones.
Yɛsɛee Basan kuropɔn no korakora sɛdeɛ yɛsɛee Hesbonhene Sihon no. Yɛsɛee nkuro no ne emu mmarima, mmaa ne mmɔfra nyinaa pasapasa.
7 But all the cattle and the spoil of the cities, we took as spoils for ourselves.
Nanso, afieboa nyinaa ne nkuro no mu asadeɛ deɛ, yɛfom faeɛ.
8 At that time we took the land 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
Amorifoɔ ahemfo baanu nsase a na ɛdeda Asubɔnten Yordan apueeɛ fam no nyinaa, yɛfaeɛ—nsase a ɛfiri Arnon subɔnhwa kɔsi bepɔ Hermon so nyinaa.
9 (Mount Hermon the Sidonians call Sirion, and the Amorites call it Senir)
Sidonfoɔ frɛ no Hermon Sirion ɛnna Amorifoɔ frɛ no Senir.
10 and all the cities of the plain, all Gilead, and all Bashan, all the way to Salekah and Edrei, cities of the kingdom of Og in Bashan.”
Yɛadi nkuropɔn a ɛwɔ bepɔ no apampam no nyinaa so a Gilead ne Basan ka ho de kɔsi nkuro a ɛwɔ Saleka ne Edrei, a na ɛyɛ Og ahemman wɔ Basan no nso ka ho bi.
11 (For of the remnant of the Rephaim, only Og king of Bashan had remained. Look! His bed was a bed of iron. Was it not in Rabbah, where the descendants of Ammon live? It was nine cubits long and four cubits wide, the way people measure.)
Abrane no deɛ, Basanhene Og nko na na waka. Ne dadeɛ mpa tenten boro anammɔn dumiɛnsa ɛnna ne tɛtrɛtɛ yɛ anammɔn nsia. Ɛda so wɔ Amonfoɔ kuropɔn Raba mu seesei ara.
12 “This land that we took in possession at that time—from Aroer, that is by the Valley of the Arnon, and half the hill country of Gilead, and its cities—I gave to the Reubenites and to the Gadites.
Yɛfaa asase no, mede asase no fa a ɛda firi Aroer Arnon subɔnhwa mu ne Gilead bepɔ fa ne ne nkuro no maa Rubenfoɔ ne Gadfoɔ.
13 The rest of Gilead and all Bashan, the kingdom of Og, I gave to the half tribe of Manasseh. (All the region of Argob, and all Bashan. The same territory is called the land of Rephaim.
Afei, mede asase no nkaeɛ a ɛyɛ Gilead ne Basan nyinaa a ɛyɛ na anka ɛyɛ Og ahemman no maa Manase abusua fa no. Saa Basan no nyinaa na wɔfrɛ no abrane asase.
14 Jair, a descendant of Manasseh, took all the region of Argob to the border of the Geshurites and the Maakathites. He called the region, even Bashan, by his own name, Havvoth Jair, to this day.)
Manase abusua ɔkannifoɔ Yair faa Argob asase no nyinaa a ɛne Basan kɔsii Gesurfoɔ ne Maakatfoɔ hyeɛ so. Ɔde ne din too asase no frɛɛ hɔ Hawot-Yair de bɛsi ɛnnɛ.
15 I gave Gilead to Machir.
Mede Gilead maa Makir,
16 To the Reubenites and to the Gadites I gave territory from Gilead to the Valley of the Arnon—the middle of the valley is the territory's border—and to the Jabbok River, which is the border with the descendants of Ammon.
Rubenfoɔ ne Gadfoɔ no, memaa wɔn asase bi a ɛfiri Gilead fa bi, kɔsi Arnon subɔnhwa ho, de kɔsi Asubɔnten Yabok a ɛyɛ Amonfoɔ hyeɛ no so.
17 Another of its borders is also the plain of the Jordan River valley, from Kinnereth to the Sea of the Arabah (that is, the Salt Sea) to the slopes of Mount Pisgah eastward.
Atɔeɛ hyeɛ no firi Asubɔnten Yordan a ɛda Araba a ɛfiri Kineret kɔsi Nkyene Ɛpo a ɛda Pisga bepɔ ayaase no.
18 I commanded you at that time, saying, 'Yahweh your God has given you this land to possess it; you, all the men of war, will pass over armed before your brothers, the people of Israel.
Na mehyɛɛ mo saa ɛberɛ no sɛ, “Awurade mo Onyankopɔn de asase yi ama mo sɛ momfa. Nanso mo mmarima akofoɔ nyinaa nhyɛ akodeɛ nni mo nuanom Israelfoɔ anim ntwa Yordan.
19 But your wives, your little ones, and your cattle (I know that you have much cattle), will stay in your cities that I have given you,
Mo yerenom, mo mma ne mo afieboa bebrebe no deɛ, monnya wɔn wɔ mo akyi wɔ nkuro a mede ama mo no so.
20 until Yahweh gives rest to your brothers, as he has to you, until they also possess the land that Yahweh your God is giving them beyond the Jordan; then will you return, every man of you, to your own property that I have given you.'
Sɛ Awurade bɔ Israelfoɔ a wɔaka no ho ban na wɔtena asase a Awurade de ama wɔn a ɛtwam Asubɔnten Yordan no so a, afei motumi sane mo akyi ba asase a mede ama mo no so.”
21 I commanded Joshua at that time, saying, 'Your eyes have seen all that Yahweh your God has done to these two kings; Yahweh will do the same to all the kingdoms where you go over.
Saa ɛberɛ no, meka kyerɛɛ Yosua sɛ, “Woahunu deɛ Awurade wo Onyankopɔn ayɛ saa ahemfo baanu yi. Saa ara na ɔbɛyɛ ahemman a ɛwɔ Yordan atɔeɛ fam no nyinaa.
22 You will not fear them, for Yahweh your God is the one who will fight for you.'
Nsuro aman a wɔwɔ hɔ no na Awurade bɛko ama wo.”
23 I implored Yahweh at that time, saying,
Saa ɛberɛ no, mesrɛɛ Awurade sɛ,
24 'O Lord Yahweh, 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 the same works as you have done, and the same mighty acts?
“Ao Otumfoɔ Awurade, meyɛ wʼakoa. Afei, na worekyerɛ me wo kɛseyɛ ne wo tumi. Onyame bɛn na ɔwɔ ɔsoro anaa asase so a ɔbɛtumi ayɛ mmaninneɛ te sɛ wo?
25 Let me go over, I beg you, and see the good land that is beyond the Jordan, that good hill country, and also Lebanon.'
Mesrɛ wo, ma me ntwa Yordan nkɔhwɛ asase nwanwa a ɛda ɛfa hɔ, ɔman fɛfɛ no ne Lebanon mmepɔ no.”
26 But Yahweh was angry with me because of you; he did not listen to me. Yahweh said to me, 'Let this be enough for you—speak no more to me about this matter:
Nanso ɛsiane mo enti, Awurade bo fuu me. Na wantie me. Na Awurade ka kyerɛɛ me sɛ “Ɛyɛ, nka saa asɛm yi ho hwee bio nkyerɛ me.
27 go up to the top of Pisgah and lift up your eyes westward, northward, southward, and eastward; look with your eyes, for you will not go over the Jordan.
Foro kɔ Pisga na hwɛ atɔeɛ ne atifi ne anafoɔ ne apueeɛ. Esiane sɛ, worentwa Yordan no enti, wʼankasa fa wʼani hwɛ asase no.
28 Instead, instruct Joshua and encourage and strengthen him, for he will go over before this people, and he will cause them to inherit the land that you will see.'
Nanso, tu Yosua na bɔ nʼaba so, na hyɛ no den na ɔno na ɔbɛdi saa nnipa yi anim atwa na wama wɔadi asase a wʼani tua yi so.”
29 So we stayed in the valley opposite Beth Peor.
Ɛno enti, yɛtenaa subɔnhwa a ɛbɛn Bet-Peor.
