< Tiuteronomi 3 >

1 Katahi tatou ka tahuri, ka haere ki runga na te huarahi ki Pahana: na ka puta mai a Oka kingi o Pahana ki te tu i a tatou, a ia me tona iwi katoa, ki Eterei whawhai ai.
“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].
2 A ka mea a Ihowa ki ahau, Kei wehi i a ia: ta te mea kua hoatu ia e ahau ki tou ringa, me tona iwi katoa, me tona oneone; a ka rite tau meatanga ki a ia ki tau i mea ai ki a Hihona, ki te kingi o nga Amori, i noho ra i Hehepona.
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].’
3 Na homai ana e Ihowa, e to tatou Atua, ki to tatou ringa a Oka hoki, te kingi o Pahana me tona iwi katoa; a patua ana ia e tatou, a kahore tetahi morehu ona i mahue.
“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.
4 Na ka horo i a tatou i taua wa ano ona pa katoa, kahore he pai i kore te tangohia e tatou i a ratou, e ono tekau nga pa, ko nga wahi katoa o Arakopa, o te rangatiratanga o Oka i Pahana.
There were 60 cities in that region near Argob, in King Og’s kingdom of Bashan. But we captured all of them
5 Ko enei pa katoa hanga rawa ki nga taiepa teitei, ki nga tatu, ki nga tutaki; haunga nga kainga noho koraha, tona tini.
All those cities had high walls [around them] with gates and bars. We also captured many villages that did not have walls [around them].
6 I huna katoatia enei e tatou, i peratia me ta tatou i mea ai ki a Hihona, ki te kingi o Hehepona, huna iho nga tangata o nga pa katoa, me nga wahine, me nga tamariki.
We completely destroyed everything, just as we had done [in the area that] King Sihon ruled. We killed all the men, women, and children.
7 Ko nga kararehe ia, me nga taonga o nga pa, i tangohia ma tatou.
But from those cities we took for ourselves all the livestock and other valuable things.
8 Na i taua wa ano ka tangohia e tatou i te ringa o nga kingi tokorua o nga Amori te whenua i tenei taha o Horano, o te awa, o Aranona atu a tae noa ki Maunga Heremona;
“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].”
9 Ko Heremona i huaina e nga Haironi ko Hiriona; na nga Amori ia i hua ko Heniri;
(That mountain is called Sirion by the people of Sidon [city] and is called Senir by the Amor people-group.)
10 Ko nga pa katoa o te mania, me Kireara katoa, me Pahana katoa, a tae noa ki Hareka, ki Eterei, nga pa hoki o te rangatiratanga o Oka i Pahana.
“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.”
11 Ko Oka anake hoki, ko te kingi o Pahana, i mahue, he morehu no nga tangata roroa. Na ko tona moenga he moenga rino; kahore iana i Rapata, i nga tama a Amona? e iwa whatianga te roa, e wha hoki whatianga te whanui, ki to te tangata whatianga.
(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.)
12 A ko tenei whenua i riro mai na i a tatou i taua wa, i Aroera atu, i tera i te awa, i Aranona, me tetahi taha o te whenua maunga o Kireara, me ona pa, i hoatu e ahau ki nga Reupeni ratou ko nga Kari.
“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.
13 A, ko te wahi o Kireara i mahue me Pahana katoa, te rangatiratanga o Oka, i hoatu e ahau ki tetahi taanga o te hapu o Manahi; ko nga wahi katoa o Arakopa me Pahana katoa e kiia nei ko te whenua o nga tangata roroa.
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.)
14 Na Haira tama a Manahi i tango te whenua katoa o Arakopa, a tae noa ki nga rohe o Kehuri, o Maakati; a huaina iho te ingoa ki tona, ko Pahana Hawotohaira, a tenei ano inaianei.
“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.
15 A tukua atu ana e ahau a Kireara mo Makiri.
The [northern part of the] Gilead [region] I allotted to the Machir [clan, who are descendants of the tribe of Manasseh].
16 I tukua e ahau ki nga Reupeni ratou ko nga Kari te wahi i Kireara a tae noa ki te awa, ki Aranona, ki waenganui o te awa me te rohe ano, a tae noa ki te awa, ki Iapoko, ko te rohe ia ki nga tama a Amona.
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.
17 Me te mania hoki, me Horano, me tona rohe, e takoto atu ana i Kinereta, taea noatia te moana i te mania, te Moana Tote, i raro i Ahatotopihika, whaka te rawhiti.
[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.
18 A i whakahau ahau i a koutou i taua wa, i mea, Kua homai e Ihowa e to koutou Atua tenei whenua kia nohoia: haere, e nga maia katoa, me a koutou patu i mua i o koutou tuakana, i nga tama a Iharaira.
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].
19 Ko a koutou wahine ia me a koutou potiki me a koutou kararehe, e mohio ana hoki ahau he tini a koutou kararehe, me noho ki o koutou pa i hoatu e ahau ki a koutou;
But your wives and children and your very numerous cattle must stay in the towns that I have allotted to you.
20 Kia meinga ra ano e Ihowa o koutou tuakana kia okioki, kia penatia me koutou na, kia whiwhi ano ratou ki te whenua ka homai nei e Ihowa, e to koutou Atua, ki a ratou i tawahi o Horano: katahi koutou ka hoki, tera, tera, ki tona kainga i hoatu e ahau ki a koutou.
[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.’
21 A i whakahau ano ahau i a Hohua i taua wa, i mea, Kua kite ou kanohi i nga mea katoa i mea ai a Ihowa, to koutou Atua, ki enei kingi tokorua: ka penatia e Ihowa nga rangatiratanga katoa ka whiti atu nei koe ki reira.
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.
22 Kei wehi koutou i a ratou: na te mea, ma Ihowa, ma to koutou Atua, ta koutou whawhai.
Do not be afraid of those people, because Yahweh our God is the one who will fight for you all.’”
23 I inoi ano ahau i taua wa ki a Ihowa, i mea,
“At that time, I earnestly prayed, saying
24 E te Ariki, e Ihowa, kua timata nei koe te whakakite ki tau pononga i tou nui, i tou ringa kaha: ko wai hoki te Atua i te rangi, i te whenua ranei, e pena ana te mahi me au mahi, he rite ranei ki a koe te kaha?
‘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].
25 Tena ra, kia whiti atu ahau kia kite i tena whenua pai i tawahi o Horano, i tena maunga pai, i Repanona ano hoki.
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.’
26 Otiia i riri mai a Ihowa ki ahau, mo ta koutou hoki, kahore ano hoki i rongo ki ahau: na ka mea mai a Ihowa ki ahau, Kati ra tau; kaua e korero mai ano ki ahau i tenei mea.
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!
27 Piki atu ki te tihi o Pihika, ka anga ai ou kanohi whaka te hauauru, whaka te raki, whaka te tonga, whaka te rawhiti, a ma ou kanohi e titiro atu; ta te mea e kore koe e whiti i tenei Horano.
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].
28 Engari whakahaua a Hohua, whakatenatenangia hoki, whakamaiatia: ta te mea ko ia te haere atu i te aroaro o tenei iwi, mana ratou e whakawhiwhi ki te whenua e kite ai koe.
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].’
29 Na ka noho tatou ki te raorao i te ritenga atu o Petepeoro.
So we remained in the [Jordan River] Valley close to Beth-Peor [town].”
