5 Mose 3

1 Afei, yɛde yɛn ani kyerɛɛ Basan ɛkwan so. Basanhene Og ne nʼasraadɔm firi bɛhyiaa yɛn wɔ Edrei ne yɛn koeɛ.

Then we turned, and went vp by the way of Bashan: and Og King of Bashan came out against vs, he, and all his people to fight at Edrei.

2 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.”

And the Lord sayde vnto me, Feare him not, for I will deliuer him, and all his people, and his land into thine hand, and thou shalt doe vnto him as thou diddest vnto Sihon King of the Amorites, which dwelt at Heshbon.

3 Enti, Awurade, yɛn Onyankopɔn, sane de Basanhene Og ne nʼakodɔm nyinaa hyɛɛ yɛn nsa. Yɛbɔɔ wɔn guiɛ a anka wɔn mu baako koraa.

So the Lord our God deliuered also vnto our hand, Og the King of Bashan, and all his people: and we smote him, vntill none was left him aliue,

4 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.

And we tooke all his cities the same time, neither was there a citie which we tooke not from them, euen three score cities, and all ye countrey of Argob, the kingdome of Og in Bashan.

5 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.

All these cities were fenced with hie walles, gates and barres, beside vnwalled townes a great many.

6 Yɛsɛee Basan kuropɔn no korakora sɛdeɛ yɛsɛee Hesbonhene Sihon no. Yɛsɛee nkuro no ne emu mmarima, mmaa ne mmɔfra nyinaa pasapasa.

And we ouerthrewe them, as we did vnto Sihon King of Heshbon, destroying euery citie, with men, women, and children.

7 Nanso, afieboa nyinaa ne nkuro no mu asadeɛ deɛ, yɛfom faeɛ.

But all the cattell and the spoyle of the cities we tooke for our selues.

8 Amorifoɔ ahemfo baanu nsase a na ɛdeda Asubɔnten Yordan apueeɛ fam no nyinaa, yɛfaeɛ—nsase a ɛfiri Arnon subɔnhwa kɔsi bepɔ Hermon so nyinaa.

Thus we tooke at that time out of the hand of two Kings of the Amorites, the land that was on this side Iorden from the riuer of Arnon vnto mount Hermon:

9 Sidonfoɔ frɛ no Hermon Sirion ɛnna Amorifoɔ frɛ no Senir.

(Which Hermon the Sidonians call Shirion, but the Amorites call it Shenir)

10 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.

All the cities of the plaine, and all Gilead, and all Bashan vnto Salchah, and Edrei, cities of the kingdome of Og in Bashan.

11 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.

For onely Og King of Bashan remained of the remnant of the gyants, whose bed was a bed of yron: is it not at Rabbath among the children of Ammon? the length thereof is nine cubites, and foure cubites the breadth of it, after the cubite of a man.

12 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.

And this land which we possessed at that time, from Aroer, which is by the riuer of Arnon, and halfe mount Gilead, and the cities thereof, gaue I vnto the Reubenites and Gadites.

13 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.

And the rest of Gilead, and all Bashan, the kingdome of Og, gaue I vnto the halfe tribe of Manasseh: euen all the countrey of Argob with all Bashan, which is called, The land of gyants.

14 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.

Iair the sonne of Manasseh tooke all the countrey of Argob, vnto the coastes of Geshuri, and of Maachathi: and called them after his owne name, Bashan, Hauoth Iair vnto this day.

15 Mede Gilead maa Makir,

And I gaue part of Gilead vnto Machir.

16 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.

And vnto the Reubenites and Gadites I gaue the rest of Gilead, and vnto the riuer of Arnon, halfe the riuer and the borders, euen vnto the riuer Iabbok, which is the border of the children of Ammon:

17 Atɔeɛ hyeɛ no firi Asubɔnten Yordan a ɛda Araba a ɛfiri Kineret kɔsi Nkyene Ɛpo a ɛda Pisga bepɔ ayaase no.

The plaine also and Iorden, and the borders from Chinneereth euen vnto the Sea of the plaine, to wit, the salt Sea vnder the springs of Pisgah Eastwarde.

18 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.

And I commanded you the same time, saying, The Lord your God hath giuen you this lande to possesse it: ye shall goe ouer armed before your brethren the children of Israel, all men of warre.

19 Mo yerenom, mo mma ne mo afieboa bebrebe no deɛ, monnya wɔn wɔ mo akyi wɔ nkuro a mede ama mo no so.

Your wiues onely, and your children, and your cattel (for I know that ye haue much cattel) shall abide in your cities, which I haue giuen you,

20 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.”

Vntill the Lord haue giuen rest vnto your brethren as vnto you, and that they also possesse the lande, which the Lord your God hath giuen them beyond Iorden: then shall ye returne euery man vnto his possession, which I haue giuen you.

21 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.

And I charged Ioshua the same time, saying, Thine eyes haue seene all that the Lord your God hath done vnto these two Kings: so shall the Lord doe vnto all the kingdomes whither thou goest.

22 Nsuro aman a wɔwɔ hɔ no na Awurade bɛko ama wo.”

Ye shall not feare them: for the Lord your God, he shall fight for you.

23 Saa ɛberɛ no, mesrɛɛ Awurade sɛ,

And I besought the Lord the same time, saying,

24 “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?

O Lord God, thou hast begunne to shewe thy seruant thy greatnesse and thy mightie hande: for where is there a God in heauen or in earth, that can do like thy workes, and like thy power?

25 Mesrɛ wo, ma me ntwa Yordan nkɔhwɛ asase nwanwa a ɛda ɛfa hɔ, ɔman fɛfɛ no ne Lebanon mmepɔ no.”

I pray thee let me go ouer and see the good land that is beyond Iorden, that goodly mountaine, and Lebanon.

26 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.

But the Lord was angrie with me for your sakes, and would not heare me: and the Lord said vnto me, Let it suffice thee, speake no more vnto me of this matter.

27 Foro kɔ Pisga na hwɛ atɔeɛ ne atifi ne anafoɔ ne apueeɛ. Esiane sɛ, worentwa Yordan no enti, wʼankasa fa wʼani hwɛ asase no.

Get thee vp into the top of Pisgah, and lift vp thine eyes Westward, and Northwarde, and Southward, and Eastward, and behold it with thine eyes, for thou shalt not goe ouer this Iorden:

28 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.”

But charge Ioshua, and incourage him, and bolden him: for hee shall goe before this people, and he shall deuide for inheritance vnto them, the land which thou shalt see.

29 Ɛno enti, yɛtenaa subɔnhwa a ɛbɛn Bet-Peor.

So wee abode in the valley ouer against Beth-Peor.
