< Diuteronomi 3 >
1 Ihe ọzọ bụ na anyị chigharịrị, gbagoo nʼụzọ gawara Bashan. Ma Ọg, eze Bashan, ya na ndị agha ya niile biliri chịrị agha pụta izute anyị nʼagha na Edrei.
We set off and went up the road towards Bashan. Og, king of Bashan, and his whole army came out to fight us at Edrei.
2 Ma Onyenwe anyị gwara m okwu, sị, “Atụla ya egwu, nʼihi na ewerela m ya na ndị agha ya niile, na ala ya, nyefee gị nʼaka. Mee ya ihe i mere Saịhọn eze ndị Amọrait, onyeisi obodo Heshbọn.”
But the Lord told me, “Don't be afraid of him, for I have handed him over to you, together with all his people and his land. Deal with him as you did with Sihon, king of the Amorites, who ruled in Heshbon.”
3 Ya mere, Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke anyị nyefere Ọg, eze Bashan na ndị agha ya niile nʼaka anyị. Anyị gbuchapụkwara ha niile, na-ahapụghị onye ọbụla ndụ.
So the Lord our God handed over to us Og, king of Bashan, and his whole army as well. We killed them and left no survivors.
4 Nʼoge ahụ, anyị lụgburu obodo ya. Ọ dịghị obodo ọbụla nʼime iri obodo isii ahụ niile nke anyị na-anaraghị ha, ya bụ akụkụ Agob niile bụ alaeze Ọg nʼime Bashan.
We also captured all his towns. There wasn't a single town among all the sixty that we didn't capture. This included the whole region of Argob, the kingdom of Og in Bashan.
5 Obodo ndị a bụ obodo e wusiri ike, nwechara mgbidi dị elu nke ukwuu, nwekwaa ọnụ ụzọ na mkpọrọ e ji akpọchi ha. Anyị lụgbukwara ọtụtụ obodo nta ndị ọzọ, ndị na-enweghị mgbidi.
All of these towns were fortified with high walls and gates with bars. There were many more villages as well, those that didn't have walls.
6 Anyị bibiri ihe niile dị nʼobodo Bashan, dịka anyị mere nʼobodo Saịhọn, eze Heshbọn. Anyị gburu mmadụ niile bi nʼime ha, nwoke, nwanyị, na ụmụntakịrị.
We set them apart for destruction, just as we did to Sihon, king of Heshbon, killing all the men, women, and children of every city.
7 Ma anụ ụlọ ha niile, na ihe nkwata si nʼobodo ha niile, bụ ihe anyị lụtara nʼagha nye onwe anyị.
But we took for ourselves all the livestock and plunder from the towns.
8 Mgbe ahụ, anyị napụrụ ala ahụ site nʼaka eze abụọ ndị Amọrait, ya bụ ala ndị dị nʼakụkụ ọwụwa anyanwụ osimiri Jọdan. Ha dị site na ndagwurugwu Anọn ruo nʼugwu Hemon.
So in summary, at that time we took from the two Amorite kings the land east of the Jordan, from the Arnon Valley all the way to Mount Hermon.
9 (Aha ndị Saịdọn na-akpọ ugwu Hemon bụ Siriọn, ma ndị Amọrait na-akpọ ya Senia.)
(Mount Hermon is called Sirion by the Sidonians and Senir by the Amorites.)
10 Anyị meriri obodo ndị ahụ niile dị nʼala dị larịị, meriekwa Gilead niile na Bashan, tutu ruo obodo Saleka na Edrei, obodo ndị dị nʼalaeze Ọg, eze Bashan.
The area included all the towns of the plain, all of Gilead, and all of Bashan, up to and including the towns of Salecah and Edrei in the kingdom of Og.
11 (Ọg, eze ndị Bashan bụ naanị onye fọdụrụ ndụ nʼagbụrụ ndị Refaim. E ji igwe kwaa ihe ndina ya, nke ogologo ya dị mita anọ, nke obosara ya bụkwa mita abụọ. Ihe ndina a dị ruo taa nʼobodo Raba, otu nʼime obodo ndị Amọn.)
(Only Og, king of Bashan, was left of the race of the Rephaim. He had a bed made of iron that was nine cubits long and four cubits wide. It's still in the Ammonite town of Rabbah.)
12 Mgbe anyị nwetara ala ndị a, eweere m ya nye ndị Ruben, na Gad, ya bụ, oke ala dị nʼebe obodo ugwu Aroea, nke dị nʼakụkụ ndagwurugwu Anọn. Tinyekwara ọkara obodo ugwu Gilead, na obodo niile dị nʼime ya.
This is when we took over the land. I assigned to the tribes of Reuben and Gad the land to the north of the town of Aroer in the Arnon Valley, and half the hill country of Gilead, together with its towns.
13 Ala fọdụrụ na Gilead nakwa Bashan niile na alaeze Ọg ka m nyere otu ọkara ebo Manase. Nke a bụ ala Agob niile dị na Bashan, bụ ndị amaara dịka ala ndị Refaim.
I assigned to the half-tribe of Manasseh the rest of Gilead, and all of Bashan, the kingdom of Og. (The whole region of Argob, all the territory of Bashan, was formerly called the land of the Rephaim.)
14 Jaịa, onye si nʼebo Manase, were ala niile dị nʼAgob, ọ bụladị ruo nʼoke ala ndị Geshua na ndị Maaka. Ọ kpọrọ ya nʼaha ya, nke mere na ruo taa ihe a na-akpọ Bashan bụ Havọt Jaịa, nke pụtara, obodo Jaịa.
Jair, a descendant of Manasseh, took over the whole region of Argob right up to the border of the Geshurites and Maacathites and changed the name of Bashan to Havvoth-jair after himself, which is still its name to this day.
15 Makia ka m nyere Gilead.
I assigned the rest of Gilead to the descendants of Machir,
16 Ma Ebo Ruben na Gad ka m nyere ala niile dị site na Gilead ruo nʼetiti ndagwurugwu Anọn, na site na ndagwurugwu a ruo nʼiyi Jabọk, nke bụ oke ala ụmụ Amọn. Etiti ndagwurugwu Anọn bụkwa oke ala ebo Ruben na Gad.
while I assigned to the tribes of Reuben and Gad the area from Gilead to the Arnon Valley, the boundary line being the middle of the valley, all the way to the Jabbok River on the Ammonite border.
17 Oke ala ha nʼakụkụ ọdịda anyanwụ bụ osimiri Jọdan nke dị nʼAraba. Oke ala a sitere na Kineret gbatịa ruo nʼOsimiri Araba (ya bụ Osimiri Nnu), nke dị na mgbada ugwu Pisga.
The Jordan River in the Arabah bordered it to the west, from the Sea of Galilee to the Sea of the Arabah (the Dead Sea). On the east lay the slopes of the Pisgah mountain range.
18 Enyekwara m unu iwu nʼoge ahụ sị, “Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu enyela unu ala a ka unu nwere ya. Ma ndị unu niile, ndị bụ dimkpa, ndị jikeere maka agha, ga-agafe nọrọ ndị Izrel ndị ọzọ nʼihu.
This was when I gave you these instructions: “The Lord your God has given you this country as yours to own. All your warriors are to cross over, ready for battle, leading your fellow Israelites.
19 Otu ọ dị, ebe ọ bụ na unu nwere ọtụtụ anụ ụlọ, ndị nwunye unu na ụmụntakịrị unu ga-ebi nʼobodo ndị m nyere unu, lekọtaa anụ ụlọ unu anya,
However, your wives, your children, and your livestock (I know that you have plenty of livestock) can stay behind in the towns I have given you,
20 tutu ruo mgbe Onyenwe anyị ga-enye ụmụnna unu mmeri dịka o nyere unu. Mgbe ha nwetara ala Onyenwe anyị Chineke anyị na-enye ha nʼofe Jọdan, onye ọbụla nʼime unu nwere ike lọghachi bịa biri nʼala unu.”
until the Lord gives victory to your fellow Israelites and they have peace, just as he has for you, after taking over the land that the Lord your God is giving them on the other side of the Jordan. Then you can all return to the land I have given you to own.”
21 Nʼoge ahụ, agwara m Joshua okwu sị, “I jirila anya gị hụ ihe Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị mere eze abụọ ndị a. Otu a ka ọ ga-emekwa alaeze niile dị nʼofe Jọdan ebe unu na-aga.
This was the time I ordered Joshua: “You've seen with your own eyes seen everything the Lord your God did to these two kings. The Lord will do the same to all the kingdoms where you're going.
22 Atụla ha egwu, nʼihi Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị ga-alụrụ gị ọgụ.”
Don't be afraid of them, for the Lord your God himself will be fighting on your side.”
23 Nʼoge ahụ, arịrịọ m Onyenwe anyị arịrịọ sị ya,
This was also the time I pleaded with the Lord, saying,
24 “Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị ị malitela igosi mụ bụ ohu gị ịdị ukwuu gị na ike gị. O nweghị chi ọzọ dị nʼeluigwe maọbụ nʼụwa pụrụ ịrụ ọrụ ebube niile ị rụrụ.
“Lord God, you've really only just begun to show your power and greatness to me, your servant. What god in heaven or on earth has the incredible ability to do the mighty acts you do?
25 Kwere ka m gafee hụ ala ọma ahụ dị nʼofe ọzọ nke Jọdan, ala ugwu ugwu ahụ mara mma, na Lebanọn.”
Please, let me cross over the Jordan and see the good land there, the beautiful hills, and the mountains of Lebanon!”
26 Ma nʼihi unu, Onyenwe anyị wesoro m iwe jụ ige m ntị! Onyenwe anyị gwara m okwu sị m, “O zuola! Agwakwala m ihe ọbụla banyere okwu a.
But the Lord was angry with me because of you, and he refused to listen to me. “That's enough,” he told me. “Don't talk to me about this anymore.
27 Gaa, rigoruo nʼelu ugwu Pisga, site nʼebe ahụ lepụ anya nʼakụkụ ugwu na ndịda ma nʼakụkụ ọwụwa anyanwụ na ọdịda anyanwụ. Ọ bụ anya gị ka ị ga-eji hụ ala ahụ, nʼihi na ị gaghị agafe osimiri Jọdan.
Climb up to the top of Mount and look west, north, south, and east. Take a long look at the land with your own eyes, because you're not going to cross this Jordan.
28 Nye Joshua ike ka ọ nọchie ọnọdụ gị. Gbaakwa ya ume, nʼihi na ọ bụ ya ga-edu ndị a gafee Jọdan iketa ala ahụ niile ị ga-ahụ.”
Instead, put Joshua in charge because he's the one who will cross over, leading the people and helping them to take over the land that you see. Encourage him and support him.”
29 Ya mere, anyị nọdụrụ na ndagwurugwu ahụ dị nso na Bet-Peoa.
So we remained there in the valley near Beth-peor.
