< Deuteronomy 3 >

1 Then turned we and went up, the way of Bashan; and Og king of Bashan, came out to meet us, he, and all his people, to give battle at Edrei.
Itaque conversi ascendimus per iter Basan: egressusque est Og rex Basan in occursum nobis cum populo suo ad bellandum in Edrai.
2 And Yahweh said unto me: Do not fear him, for into thy hand, have I delivered him and all his people and his land, —so then thou shalt do unto him, as thou didst unto Sihon king of the Amorites who was dwelling in Heshbon.
Dixitque Dominus ad me: Ne timeas eum: quia in manu tua traditus est cum omni populo ac terra sua: faciesque ei sicut fecisti Sehon regi Amorrhæorum, qui habitavit in Hesebon.
3 Then did Yahweh our God deliver into our hand, Og also, king of Bashan and all his people, —so we smote him until there was not left remaining to him a survivor.
Tradidit ergo Dominus Deus noster in manibus nostris etiam Og regem Basan, et universum populum eius: percussimusque eos usque ad internecionem,
4 And we captured all his cities, at that time, there was no fortress which we took not from them, —sixty cities all the region of Argob, the kingdom of Og in Bashan.
vastantes cunctas civitates illius uno tempore. Non fuit oppidum, quod nos effugeret: sexaginta urbes, omnem regionem Argob regni Og in Basan.
5 All these, were fortified cities each with a high wall, folding gates and a bar, —besides country towns exceeding many.
Cunctæ urbes erant munitæ muris altissimis, portisque et vectibus, absque oppidis innumeris, quæ non habebant muros.
6 And we devoted them to destruction, doing unto them as we did unto Sihon king of Heshbon, —devoting to destruction every city of males, the women, and the little ones.
Et delevimus eos, sicut feceramus Sehon regi Hesebon, disperdentes omnem civitatem, virosque ac mulieres et parvulos:
7 But all the cattle, and the spoil of the cities, made we our prey.
iumenta autem et spolia urbium diripuimus.
8 Thus did we at that time take the land out of the hand of the two kings of the Amorites (which was over the Jordan), —from the ravine of Arnon as far as Mount Hermon.
Tulimusque illo in tempore terram de manu duorum regum Amorrhæorum, qui erant trans Iordanem: a torrente Arnon usque ad montem Hernon,
9 Sidonians, call Hermon Sirion, —but, the Amorites, call it Senir.
quem Sidonii Sarion vocant, et Amorrhæi Sanir:
10 All the cities of the table-land, and all Gilead, and all Bashan, —unto Salecah, and Edrei, —cities of the kingdom of Og, in Bashan.
omnes civitates, quæ sitæ sunt in planitie, et universam Terram Galaad et Basan usque ad Selcha, et Edrai civitates regni Og in Basan.
11 For, only Og, king of Bashan was left remaining of the remnant of the giants, lo! his bedstead, was a bedstead of iron, is not, the same, in Rabbath of the sons of Ammon? nine cubits, the length thereof and four cubits, the breadth thereof, by the fore-arm of a man.
Solus quippe Og rex Basan restiterat de stirpe gigantum. Monstratur lectus eius ferreus, qui est in Rabbath filiorum Ammon, novem cubitos habens longitudinis, et quattuor latitudinis ad mensuram cubiti virilis manus.
12 And this land, took we in possession at that time, —from Aroer which is by the ravine of Arnon, and half the hill-country of Gilead and the cities thereof, gave I unto the Reubenites and unto the Gadites;
Terramque possedimus tempore illo ab Aroer, quæ est super ripam torrentis Arnon, usque ad mediam partem montis Galaad: et civitates illius dedi Ruben et Gad.
13 but the remainder of Gilead, and all Bashan the kingdom of Og, gave I unto the half tribe of Manasseh, —all the region of the Argob with all Bashan. The same, is called, A land of giants.
Reliquam autem partem Galaad, et omnem Basan regni Og, tradidi mediæ tribui Manasse, omnem regionem Argob: cunctaque Basan vocatur terra gigantum.
14 Jair, son of Manasseh, took all the region of Argob, as far as the boundary of the Geshurites, and the Maachathites, —and called them after his own name The Bashan of Havvoth-jair unto this day.
Iair filius Manasse possedit omnem regionem Argob usque ad terminos Gessuri, et Machati. Vocavitque ex nomine suo Basan, Havoth Iair, id est, Villas Iair, usque in præsentem diem.
15 And, unto Machir, gave I Gilead;
Machir quoque dedi Galaad.
16 And unto the Reubenites and unto the Gadites, gave I—from Gilead even as far as the ravine of Arnon, the middle of the ravine and boundary, —even as far as the Jabbok ravine, the boundary of the sons of Ammon;
Et tribubus Ruben et Gad dedi de Terra Galaad usque ad Torrentem Arnon medium torrentis, et confinium usque ad torrentem Ieboc, qui est terminus filiorum Ammon:
17 the Waste Plain also and the Jordan and boundary, —from Chinnereth, even as far as the sea of the Waste Plain the Salt Sea, under the slopes of Pisgah, on the east.
et planitiem solitudinis, atque Iordanem, et terminos Cenereth usque ad mare deserti, quod est salsissimum, ad radices montis Phasga contra orientem.
18 So I commanded you, at that time saying, —Yahweh your God hath given unto you this land to possess it, armed, shall ye pass over before your brethren the sons of Israel all the sons of valour,
Præcepique vobis in tempore illo, dicens: Dominus Deus vester dat vobis terram hanc in hereditatem: expediti præcedite fratres vestros filios Israel omnes viri robusti:
19 Only, your wives and your little ones and your cattle—I know that ye have much cattle—shall abide in your cities which I have given unto you;
absque uxoribus, et parvulis atque iumentis. Novi enim quod plura habeatis pecora, et in urbibus remanere debebunt, quas tradidi vobis,
20 until that Yahweh shall give rest unto your brethren, as well as you, so shall, they too, possess the land which, Yahweh your God, is giving unto them, over the Jordan, —then shall ye return every man unto his possession, which I have given unto you.
donec requiem tribuat Dominus fratribus vestris, sicut vobis tribuit: et possideant ipsi etiam Terram, quam daturus est eis trans Iordanem: tunc revertetur unusquisque in possessionem suam, quam dedi vobis.
21 Joshua also, commanded I, at that time saying, —Thine are the eyes, that have seen all that Yahweh your God hath done unto these two kings, thus, will Yahweh do unto all the kingdoms whereunto thou, art passing over:
Iosue quoque in tempore illo præcepi, dicens: Oculi tui viderunt quæ fecit Dominus Deus vester duobus his regibus: sic faciet omnibus regnis, ad quæ transiturus es.
22 ye shall not fear them, —for, Yahweh your God, he, it is that is fighting for you.
Ne timeas eos: Dominus enim Deus vester pugnabit pro vobis.
23 Then sought I Yahweh at that time, for a favour saying:
Precatusque sum Dominum in tempore illo, dicens:
24 My Lord Yahweh, thou thyself, hast begun to shew thy servant thy greatness, and thy firm hand, —as to which, what GOD is there, in the heavens or in the earth, that can do according to thy doings, and according to thy mighty deeds?
Domine Deus tu cœpisti ostendere servo tuo magnitudinem tuam, manumque fortissimam. Neque enim est alius deus vel in cælo, vel in terra, qui possit facere opera tua, et comparari fortitudini tuæ.
25 Let me pass over, I pray thee that I may see the good land that is over the Jordan, —this good mountain, and the Lebanon.
Transibo igitur, et videbo Terram hanc optimam trans Iordanem, et montem istum egregium, et Libanum.
26 But Yahweh had been provoked with me for your sakes, and hearkened not unto me, —and Yahweh said unto me, Enough for thee! do not add a word unto me further in this matter.
Iratusque est Dominus mihi propter vos, nec exaudivit me, sed dixit mihi: Sufficit tibi: nequaquam ultra loquaris de hac re ad me.
27 Ascend the top of the Pisgah, and lift up thine eyes—westward, and northward and southward and eastward—and see with thine own eyes, —for thou shalt not pass over this Jordan.
Ascende cacumen Phasgæ, et oculos tuos circumfer ad occidentem, et ad aquilonem, austrumque et orientem, et aspice. Nec enim transibis Iordanem istum.
28 But command thou Joshua and confirm him and embolden him, —for, he, shall pass over before this people, and, he shall cause them to inherit the land which thou shalt see.
Præcipe Iosue, et corrobora eum atque conforta: quia ipse præcedet populum istum, et dividet eis Terram, quam visurus es.
29 So we abode in the valley, over against Beth-peor.
Mansimusque in valle contra fanum Phogor.
