< Deuteronomy 3 >
1 Then we turned, and went up the way to Bashan. Og the king of Bashan came out against us, he and all his people, to battle at Edrei.
Azɔ míetrɔ ɖo ta Ɔg, Basan fia ƒe anyigba dzi. Ɔg ƒo eƒe aʋakɔ nu ƒu enumake eye wokpe aʋa kpli mí le Edrei.
2 Yahweh said to me, “Don’t fear him; for I have delivered him, with all his people and his land, into your hand. You shall do to him as you did to Sihon king of the Amorites, who lived at Heshbon.”
Ke Yehowa gblɔ nam be, “Mègavɔ̃e o, elabena matsɔ eya ŋutɔ kple eƒe aʋakɔ blibo la kpakple eƒe anyigba blibo la ade asi na wò; eye nawɔe abe ale si nèwɔ Fia Sixɔn, Amoritɔwo ƒe fia, le Hesbon ene.”
3 So Yahweh our God also delivered into our hand Og, the king of Bashan, and all his people. We struck him until no one was left to him remaining.
Ale Yehowa miaƒe Mawu tsɔ Ɔg, Basan fia hã kple eƒe dukɔ blibo la de asi na mi, eye míewu wo katã, ale be ame aɖeke metsi agbe ahayi sisi ge o.
4 We took all his cities at that time. There was not a city which we didn’t take from them: sixty cities, all the region of Argob, the kingdom of Og in Bashan.
Míexɔ eƒe du blaadeawo katã kple Basan ƒe to si woyɔna be Argob.
5 All these were cities fortified with high walls, gates, and bars, in addition to a great many villages without walls.
Woɖo gli kɔkɔwo ƒo xlã du siawo, eye wode gakpogbowo wo nu. Míexɔ du siwo katã womeɖo gli ƒo xlãe o la hã.
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.
Míetsrɔ̃ Basan fiaɖuƒe la keŋkeŋ abe ale si míetsrɔ̃ Fia Sixɔn ƒe fiaɖuƒe le Hesbon ene, eye míewu ameawo katã, ŋutsuwo, nyɔnuwo kple ɖeviwo siaa.
7 But all the livestock, and the plunder of the cities, we took for plunder for ourselves.
Ke mieha woƒe nyiwo kple afunyinuwo na mía ɖokuiwo.
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.
Azɔ la, Amoritɔwo ƒe fia eveawo ƒe anyigba si le Yɔdan tɔsisi la ƒe go kemɛ dzi la zu mía tɔ. Anyigba sia tso Arnon ƒe balime yi Hermon to la gbɔ.
9 (The Sidonians call Hermon Sirion, and the Amorites call it Senir.)
(Sidontɔwo yɔa Hermon to la be Sirion le esime Amoritɔwo yɔe be 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.
Míexɔ du siwo katã le tonyigba la dzi kple esiwo le Gilead kple Basan azɔ va se ɖe keke Saleka kple Edrei.
11 (For only Og king of Bashan remained of the remnant of the Rephaim. Behold, his bedstead was a bedstead of iron. Isn’t it in Rabbah of the children of Ammon? Nine cubits was its length, and four cubits its width, after the cubit of a man.)
(Ɔg, Basan fiae nye ame dzɔtsu, Refaimtɔwo ƒe mamlɛtɔ. Wotsɔ eƒe gabati dzra ɖo ɖe nuwo dzraɖoƒe le Raba, si nye Amonitɔwo ƒe duwo dometɔ ɖeka me. Gabati sia didi afɔ wuietɔ̃ kple afã, eye wòkeke afɔ ade.)
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 with its cities, I gave to the Reubenites and to the Gadites;
Míetsɔ anyigba si míexɔ la na Ruben ƒe viwo kple Gad ƒe viwo kple Manase ƒe to afã la ƒe viwo. Metsɔ anyiehenyigba si tso Areor le Arnon tɔsisi la gbɔ kple Gilead to la ƒe afã kple eƒe duwo na Ruben ƒe viwo kple Gad ƒe viwo.
13 and the rest of Gilead, and all Bashan, the kingdom of Og, I gave to the half-tribe of Manasseh—all the region of Argob, even all Bashan. (The same is called the land of Rephaim.
Manase ƒe viwo xɔ Gilead ƒe akpa mamlɛtɔ kple teƒe si Fia Ɔg ƒe fiaɖuƒe nɔ le Argob nuto me. Woyɔa Basan ɣe aɖewo ɣi be, “Refaim ƒe Anyigba.”
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.)
Manase ƒe hlɔ̃ si woyɔna be Yair la xɔ Argob nuto me blibo la, si nye Basan va se ɖe Gesuritɔwo kple Makatitɔwo ƒe liƒowo dzi. Wotsɔ woawo ŋutɔwo ƒe ŋkɔ na anyigba la be Havɔt Yair si gɔmee nye “Yair ƒe Kɔƒewo” abe ale si wogayɔa wo egbegbe ene.
15 I gave Gilead to Machir.
Metsɔ Gilead na Makir ƒe hlɔ̃.
16 To the Reubenites and to the Gadites I gave from Gilead even 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 children of Ammon;
Ruben kple Gad ƒe towo xɔ anyigba tso Yabok tɔsisi la ŋu le Gilead, afi si Amonitɔwo ƒe anyigba dze egɔme tso va se ɖe Arnon tɔsisi la ƒe balime ƒe titina.
17 the Arabah also, and the Jordan and its border, from Chinnereth even to the sea of the Arabah, the Salt Sea, under the slopes of Pisgah eastward.
Woxɔ Araba gbegbe si Yɔdan tɔsisi la do liƒo na le ɣetoɖoƒe, tso Kineret va se ɖe Pisga kple Dzeƒu la, si wogayɔna be Araba ƒu la ŋu.
18 I commanded you at that time, saying, “Yahweh your God has given you this land to possess it. All of you men of valor shall pass over armed before your brothers, the children of Israel.
Mede se na mi be, “Yehowa, miaƒe Mawu, tsɔ anyigba sia na mi, ne woanye mia tɔ. Mi kalẽtɔwo katã mibla akpa dze mia nɔvi Israelviwo ŋgɔ.
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,
Ke mia srɔ̃wo kple mia viwo ya ate ŋu anɔ afi sia le du siwo metsɔ na mi la me; woanɔ miaƒe nyiwo dzi kpɔm
20 until Yahweh gives rest to your brothers, as to you, and they also possess the land which Yahweh your God gives them beyond the Jordan. Then you shall each return to his own possession, which I have given you.”
va se ɖe esime miatrɔ agbɔ, eye mana to bubuawo hã naɖu woƒe futɔwo dzi. Ne woxɔ anyigba si Yehowa, míaƒe Mawu la tsɔ na wo le Yɔdan tɔsisi la godo la, ekema miate ŋu atrɔ va afi sia, si nye miawo ŋutɔ ƒe anyigba la dzi.”
21 I commanded Joshua at that time, saying, “Your eyes have seen all that Yahweh your God has done to these two kings. So shall Yahweh do to all the kingdoms where you go over.
Megblɔ na Yosua be, “Wò ŋutɔ èkpɔ nu si Yehowa miaƒe Mawu wɔ fia eve mawo. Miwɔ nu ma tɔgbi ke fiaɖuƒe siwo le Yɔdan tɔsisi la godo.
22 You shall not fear them; for Yahweh your God himself fights for you.”
Mègavɔ̃ dukɔ siwo le afi ma la o, elabena Yehowa, wò Mawu la awɔ aʋa na wò.”
23 I begged Yahweh at that time, saying,
Meƒo koko sia na Yehowa le ɣe ma ɣi be,
24 “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 works like yours, and mighty acts like yours?
“Aƒetɔ Yehowa, wò ŋutɔ ède asi wò gãnyenye kple wò abɔ sesẽ la ɖeɖe fia wò subɔla me xoxo, elabena Mawu kae le dziƒo alo anyigba dzi si ate ŋu awɔ wò nuwɔna siawo tɔgbi?
25 Please let me go over and see the good land that is beyond the Jordan, that fine mountain, and Lebanon.”
Meɖe kuku na wò, na made anyigba nyui si le Yɔdan tɔsisi la godo la dzi dzro, be makpɔ to nyui ma kple Lebanon.”
26 But Yahweh was angry with me because of you, and didn’t listen to me. Yahweh said to me, “That is enough! Speak no more to me of this matter.
Ke Yehowa do dɔmedzoe ɖe ŋunye le miawo ta, eye meɖe mɔ nam be matso tɔsisi la o. Eɖe gbe nam be, “Esɔ gbɔ, mègaƒo nu tso nya sia ŋu azɔ o,
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.
ke boŋ yi Pisga to la tame, afi si nàte ŋu ɣetoɖoƒe kple anyiehe, dziehe kple ɣedzeƒe gome ɖa; àkpɔ anyigba la le didiƒe tso afi ma. Ke màtso Yɔdan tɔsisi la o.
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.”
Na Yosua naxɔ ɖe tewòƒe. De dzi ƒo nɛ, elabena eyae akplɔ ameawo atso tɔsisi la be woaxɔ anyigba si nàkpɔ tso to la tame.”
29 So we stayed in the valley near Beth Peor.
Míetsi bali la me le Bet Peor kasa.
