Defeat Of Og Of Bashan

1 Then we turned, and went up the way to Bashan: and Og the king of Bashan came out against us, he and all his people, to battle at Edrei.

1 (A)Then we turned and went up the road to Bashan, and Og, king of Bashan, (a)with all his people came out to meet us in battle at Edrei.

1 “Then we turned and went up the road to Bashan, and Og king of Bashan(A) came out against us with his whole army to do battle at Edrei.(B)

1 "We set out and went up along the road to Bashan. Then King Og of Bashan came out to meet us he and his whole army for a battle at Edrei.

1 “Then we turned and went up the road toward Bashan, and at Edrei, Og king of Bashan, with all his people came out to meet us in battle.

2 And the LORD said unto me, Fear him not: for I will deliver him, and all his people, and his land, into thy hand; and thou shalt do unto him as thou didst unto Sihon king of the Amorites, which dwelt at Heshbon.

2 But the Lord said to me, ‘Do not fear him, for I have delivered him and all his people and his land into your hand; and you shall do to him just as you did to Sihon king of the Amorites, who lived at Heshbon.’

2 But the Lord said to me, ‘Do not fear him, for I have handed him over to you along with his whole army and his land. Do to him as you did to Sihon king of the Amorites,(C) who lived in Heshbon.’

2 Then the LORD told me, "Don't fear him, because I've delivered him, his army, and his territory into your control. Do to him just as you have done to Sihon, king of the Amorites, who lived in Heshbon.'

2 And the Lord said to me, ‘Do not fear him, for I have handed him over to you, him and all his people and his land; and you shall do to him just as you did to Sihon king of the Amorites, who lived at Heshbon.’

3 So the LORD our God delivered into our hands Og also, the king of Bashan, and all his people: and we smote him until none was left to him remaining.

3 So the Lord our God delivered Og also, king of Bashan, with all his people into our hand, and we smote (b)them until no survivor was (c)left.

3 So the Lord our God also handed over Og king of Bashan and his whole army to us. We struck him until there was no survivor left.

3 "So the LORD our God also delivered into our control King Og of Bashan, along with his whole army. We attacked him until there were no survivors.

3 So the Lord our God also handed over Og king of Bashan, and all his people, into our hand and we struck him until no survivor was left.

4 And we took all his cities at that time, there was not a city which we took not from them, threescore cities, all the region of Argob, the kingdom of Og in Bashan.

4 We captured all his cities at that time; there was not a city which we did not take from them: sixty cities, all the region of (B)Argob, the kingdom of Og in Bashan.

4 We captured all his cities at that time. There wasn’t a city that we didn’t take from them: 60 cities, the entire region of Argob, the kingdom of Og in Bashan.

4 Then we captured all his cities at that time. There was not a city left that we didn't capture from them 60 cities in all from the region of Argob, which is part of the kingdom of Og in Bashan.

4 We captured all his cities at that time; there was not a city which we did not take from them: sixty cities, the whole region of Argob, the kingdom of Og in Bashan.

5 All these cities were fenced with high walls, gates, and bars; beside unwalled towns a great many.

5 All these were cities fortified with high walls, gates and bars, besides a great many (d)unwalled towns.

5 All these were fortified with high walls, gates, and bars, besides a large number of rural villages.

5 All of these cities were fortified with high walls, gates, and bars. Furthermore, there were very many unwalled regions.

5 All these cities were fortified and unassailable with their high walls, gates, and bars; in addition, [there were] a very great number of unwalled villages.

6 And we utterly destroyed them, as we did unto Sihon king of Heshbon, utterly destroying the men, women, and children, of every city.

6 We (e)utterly destroyed them, as we did to (C)Sihon king of Heshbon, (f)(D)utterly destroying (g)the men, women and children of every city.

6 We completely destroyed them, as we had done to Sihon king of Heshbon, destroying the men, women, and children of every city.

6 We utterly destroyed them, just as we did King Sihon of Heshbon, attacking them in every city the men, women, and children.

6 We utterly destroyed them, just as we did to Sihon king of Heshbon, utterly destroying every city—the men, women, and children.

7 But all the cattle, and the spoil of the cities, we took for a prey to ourselves.

7 (E)But all the animals and the spoil of the cities we took as our booty.

7 But we took all the livestock and the spoil from the cities as plunder for ourselves.(D)

7 But we kept for ourselves all of the livestock and plunder from the towns.

7 But we took all the cattle and the spoil of the cities as plunder for ourselves.

The Land Of The Transjordan Tribes

8 And we took at that time out of the hand of the two kings of the Amorites the land that was on this side Jordan, from the river of Arnon unto mount Hermon;

8 (F)Thus we took the land at that time from the hand of the two kings of the Amorites who were beyond the Jordan, from the (h)valley of Arnon to Mount Hermon

8 “At that time we took the land from the two Amorite kings across the Jordan, from the Arnon Valley as far as Mount Hermon,

8 "So at that time, we took control from the two Amorite kings the territory east of the Jordan from Wadi Arnon to Mount Hermon.

8 “So we took the land at that time from the hand of the two kings [Sihon and Og] of the Amorites who were beyond the Jordan, from the valley of the Arnon to Mount Hermon

9 (Which Hermon the Sidonians call Sirion; and the Amorites call it Shenir;)

9 (Sidonians (G)call Hermon (H)Sirion, and the Amorites call it (I)Senir):

9 which the Sidonians call Sirion, but the Amorites call Senir,

9 (The Sidonians called Hermon Sirion, but the Amorites called it Senir.)

9 (the Sidonians call Hermon Sirion, and the Amorites call it Senir):

10 All the cities of the plain, and all Gilead, and all Bashan, unto Salchah and Edrei, cities of the kingdom of Og in Bashan.

10 all the cities of the plateau and all Gilead and (J)all Bashan, as far as Salecah and Edrei, cities of the kingdom of Og in Bashan.

10 all the cities of the plateau, Gilead, and Bashan as far as Salecah and Edrei, cities of Og’s kingdom in Bashan.(E)

10 We took control of all the cities of the plain, all of Gilead and Bashan as far as Salecah and Edrei, cities of the kingdom of Og in Bashan.

10 all the cities of the plain and all Gilead and all Bashan, as far as Salecah and Edrei, cities of the kingdom of Og in Bashan.”

11 For only Og king of Bashan remained of the remnant of giants; behold, his bedstead was a bedstead of iron; is it not in Rabbath of the children of Ammon? nine cubits was the length thereof, and four cubits the breadth of it, after the cubit of a man.

11 (For only Og king of Bashan was left of the remnant of the (K)Rephaim. Behold, his (i)bedstead was an iron (j)bedstead; it is in (L)Rabbah of the sons of Ammon. Its length was nine cubits and its width four cubits (k)by ordinary cubit.)

11 (Only Og king of Bashan was left of the remnant of the Rephaim. His bed was made of iron.(a) Isn’t it in Rabbah of the Ammonites? It is 13 feet six inches long and six feet wide by a standard measure.(b))

11 Only King Og of Bashan remained from the remnants of the Rephaim. In fact, his bed was made of iron. It's in Rabbah of the Ammonites, isn't it? It was nine cubits long and four cubits wide."

11 (For only Og king of Bashan was left of the remnant of the [the giants known as the] Rephaim. Behold, his bed frame was a bed frame of iron; is it not in (a)Rabbah of the Ammonites? It was nine cubits (12 ft.) long and four cubits (6 ft.) wide, using the cubit of a man [the forearm to the end of the middle finger].)

Distribution Of The Transjordanian Allotments

12 And this land, which we possessed at that time, from Aroer, which is by the river Arnon, and half mount Gilead, and the cities thereof, gave I unto the Reubenites and to the Gadites.

12 “So we took possession of this land at that time. From (M)Aroer, which is by the (l)valley of Arnon, and half the hill country of (N)Gilead and its cities I gave to the Reubenites and to the Gadites.

12 “At that time we took possession of this land.(F) I gave to the Reubenites and Gadites the area extending from Aroer by the Arnon Valley, and half the hill country of Gilead along with its cities.

12 "Of the land that we captured at that time, I've given its towns to the descendants of Reuben and the descendants of Gad from Aroer near the Wadi Arnon to half of the hill country of Gilead.

12 “So we took possession of this land at that time. I gave the territory from Aroer, which is by the valley of the Arnon, along with half of the hill country of Gilead and its cities to the Reubenites and to the Gadites.

13 And the rest of Gilead, and all Bashan, being the kingdom of Og, gave I unto the half tribe of Manasseh; all the region of Argob, with all Bashan, which was called the land of giants.

13 The rest of Gilead and all Bashan, the kingdom of Og, I gave to the half-tribe of Manasseh, all the region of Argob (concerning all Bashan, it is called the land of Rephaim.

13 I gave to half the tribe of Manasseh the rest of Gilead and all Bashan, the kingdom of Og. The entire region of Argob, the whole territory of Bashan, used to be called the land of the Rephaim.

13 The remainder of Gilead and Bashan of the kingdom of Og, I've given to the half-tribe of Manasseh. (The whole region of Argob that is, all of Bashan is called the land of the Rephaim.)

13 The rest of Gilead and all of Bashan, the kingdom of Og, I gave to the half-tribe of Manasseh, that is, all the region of Argob (concerning all Bashan, it is called the land of Rephaim.

14 Jair the son of Manasseh took all the country of Argob unto the coasts of Geshuri and Maachathi; and called them after his own name, Bashanhavothjair, unto this day.

14 (O)Jair the son of Manasseh took all the region of Argob as far as the border of the Geshurites and the Maacathites, and called (m)it, that is, Bashan, after his own name, (n)Havvoth-jair, as it is to this day.)

14 Jair, a descendant of Manasseh, took over the entire region of Argob as far as the border of the Geshurites and Maacathites. He called Bashan by his own name, Jair’s Villages,(c) as it is today.

14 Manasseh's son Jair captured all the Argob region as far as the territory of the descendants of Geshur and the descendants of Maacath. Bashan was named after him; that's why it is called Havvoth-jair to this day.

14 Jair the son (descendant) of Manasseh took all the region of Argob as far as the border of the Geshurites and the Maacathites, that is Bashan, and called it after his own name, Havvoth (the villages of) Jair, as it is called to this day.)

15 And I gave Gilead unto Machir.

15 (P)To Machir I gave Gilead.

15 I gave Gilead to Machir,

15 Furthermore, I've given Gilead to Machir.

15 I gave Gilead to Machir [of Manasseh].

16 And unto the Reubenites and unto the Gadites I gave from Gilead even unto the river Arnon half the valley, and the border even unto the river Jabbok, which is the border of the children of Ammon;

16 To the Reubenites and to the Gadites I gave from Gilead even as far as the (o)valley of Arnon, the middle of the (p)valley (q)as a border and as far as the (r)river (Q)Jabbok, the border of the sons of Ammon;

16 and I gave to the Reubenites and Gadites the area extending from Gilead to the Arnon Valley (the middle of the valley was the border) and up to the Jabbok River, the border of the Ammonites.

16 And I've given Gilead to the descendants of Reuben and the descendants of Gad as far as the Arnon Valley, designating the middle of the valley as its boundary, including up to the Jabbok River as a boundary with the Ammonites.

16 To the Reubenites and Gadites I gave the territory from Gilead as far as the Valley of Arnon, with the middle of the Valley as a boundary, and as far as the Jabbok River, the boundary of the sons of Ammon;

17 The plain also, and Jordan, and the coast thereof, from Chinnereth even unto the sea of the plain, even the salt sea, under Ashdothpisgah eastward.

Instructions To The Transjordanian Tribes

18 And I commanded you at that time, saying, The LORD your God hath given you this land to possess it: ye shall pass over armed before your brethren the children of Israel, all that are meet for the war.

18 “Then I commanded you at that time, saying, ‘(U)The Lord your God has given you this land to possess it; (V)all you valiant men shall cross over armed before your brothers, the sons of Israel.

18 “I commanded you at that time: The Lord your God has given you this land to possess. All your fighting men will cross over in battle formation ahead of your brothers the Israelites.

18 "Then I commanded you at that time, "The Lord your God gave you this land as a possession. Those equipped for battle every man a warrior will cross before your fellow Israelis.

18 “Then I commanded you [Reuben, Gad, and the half-tribe of Manasseh] at that time, saying, ‘The Lord your God has given you this land to possess; all you who are brave men shall cross over [the Jordan] armed before your brothers, the sons of Israel.

19 But your wives, and your little ones, and your cattle, (for I know that ye have much cattle,) shall abide in your cities which I have given you;

19 (W)But your wives and your little ones and your livestock (I know that you have (X)much livestock) shall remain in your cities which I have given you,

19 But your wives, young children, and livestock—I know that you have a lot of livestock—will remain in the cities I have given you

19 However, your women, children, and livestock and I know you have many may reside in your towns that I gave you

19 But your wives and your children and your cattle—I know that you have much livestock—shall remain in your cities which I have given you,

20 Until the LORD have given rest unto your brethren, as well as unto you, and until they also possess the land which the LORD your God hath given them beyond Jordan: and then shall ye return every man unto his possession, which I have given you.

20 (Y)until the Lord gives rest to your fellow countrymen as to you, and they also possess the land which the Lord your God will give them beyond the Jordan. (Z)Then you may return every man to his possession which I have given you.’

20 until the Lord gives rest to your brothers as He has to you, and they also take possession of the land the Lord your God is giving them across the Jordan. Then each of you may return to his possession that I have given you.(H)

20 until the LORD grants rest to your fellow Israelis like you. When they take possession of the territory that the LORD your God is about to give them on the other side of the Jordan River, then each of you may return to the territory that I've allotted for you.'

20 until the Lord gives rest to your fellow countrymen as [He has] to you, and they also possess the land which the Lord your God has given them beyond the Jordan. Then each of you may return to the land (possession) which I have given to you.’

The Transfer Of Israel's Leadership

21 And I commanded Joshua at that time, saying, Thine eyes have seen all that the LORD your God hath done unto these two kings: so shall the LORD do unto all the kingdoms whither thou passest.

21 I commanded Joshua at that time, saying, ‘Your eyes have seen all that the Lord your God has done to these two kings; so the Lord shall do to all the kingdoms into which you are about to cross.

21 “I commanded Joshua at that time: Your own eyes have seen everything the Lord your God has done to these two kings. The Lord will do the same to all the kingdoms you are about to enter.

21 "I also charged Joshua at that time, "You witnessed everything that the LORD your God did to the two kings. Indeed, the LORD will do this to all the kingdoms which you are about to enter.

21 I commanded Joshua at that time, saying, ‘Your eyes have seen everything that the Lord your God has done to these two kings [Sihon and Og]; so the Lord shall do the same to all the kingdoms into which you are about to cross.

22 Ye shall not fear them: for the LORD your God he shall fight for you.

22 Do not fear them, for the Lord your God (AA)is the one fighting for you.’

22 Don’t be afraid of them, for the Lord your God fights for you.

22 You are not to fear them, because the LORD your God will fight for you.'"

22 Do not fear them, for it is the Lord your God who is fighting for you.’

Moses Forbidden To Enter The Land

23 And I besought the LORD at that time, saying,

23 “I also pleaded with the Lord at that time, saying,

23 “At that time I begged the Lord:

23 "I pleaded with the LORD at that time,

23 “Then I pleaded with the Lord at that time [for His favor], saying,

24 O Lord GOD, thou hast begun to shew thy servant thy greatness, and thy mighty hand: for what God is there in heaven or in earth, that can do according to thy works, and according to thy might?

24 ‘O Lord (v)God, You have begun to show Your servant (AB)Your greatness and Your strong hand; for what (AC)god is there in heaven or on earth who can do such works and mighty acts as Yours?

24 Lord God, You have begun to show Your greatness and power to Your servant, for what god is there in heaven or on earth who can perform deeds and mighty acts like Yours?

24 "LORD God, you've begun to show your greatness and your strong power to your servant. For what god in heaven or on earth can equal your works and mighty deeds?

24 ‘O Lord God, You have only begun to show Your servant Your greatness and Your mighty hand; for what god is there in heaven or on earth that can do such works and mighty acts (miracles) as Yours?

25 I pray thee, let me go over, and see the good land that is beyond Jordan, that goodly mountain, and Lebanon.

25 Let me, I pray, cross over and see the (AD)fair land that is beyond the Jordan, (w)that good hill country and Lebanon.’

25 Please let me cross over and see the beautiful land(I) on the other side of the Jordan, that good hill country and Lebanon.

25 Let me cross over that I may see the good land on the other side of the Jordan River the good hill country as well as Lebanon.'

25 I pray, let me go over and see the good land that is beyond the Jordan, that good hill country [with Hermon] and Lebanon.’

26 But the LORD was wroth with me for your sakes, and would not hear me: and the LORD said unto me, Let it suffice thee; speak no more unto me of this matter.

26 But (AE)the Lord was angry with me on your account, and would not listen to me; and the Lord said to me, ‘(x)Enough! Speak to Me no more of this matter.

26 “But the Lord was angry with me on account of you and would not listen to me. The Lord said to me, ‘That’s enough! Do not speak to Me again about this matter.

26 "However, the LORD was furious with me because of you. He did not listen to me. Instead, the LORD said, "You are not to speak to me about this matter again!

26 But the Lord was angry with me because of you [and your rebellion at Meribah], and would not listen to me; and the Lord said to me, ‘Enough! Speak to Me no longer about this matter.(A)

27 Get thee up into the top of Pisgah, and lift up thine eyes westward, and northward, and southward, and eastward, and behold it with thine eyes: for thou shalt not go over this Jordan.

27 Go up to the top of (AF)Pisgah and lift up your eyes to the west and north and south and east, and see it with your eyes, (AG)for you shall not cross over this Jordan.

27 Go to the top of Pisgah and look to the west, north, south, and east, and see it with your own eyes, for you will not cross this Jordan.(J)

27 Go up to the top of Pisgah and lift your eyes toward the west, north, south, and east. Look with your own eyes, since you won't be able to cross this Jordan River.

27 Go up to the top of [Mount] Pisgah and raise your eyes toward the west and north and south and east, and see it with your eyes, for you shall not cross this Jordan.

28 But charge 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 thou shalt see.

28 (AH)But charge Joshua and encourage him and strengthen him, (AI)for he shall go across (y)at the head of this people, and he will give them as an inheritance the land which you will see.’

28 But commission Joshua and encourage and strengthen him, for he will cross over ahead of the people and enable them to inherit this land that you will see.’(K)

28 Therefore charge Joshua to be doubly strong, because he will lead this people and cause them to inherit the land that you'll see.'

28 But command Joshua and encourage and strengthen him, for he shall go across and lead this people, and he will give them the land which you see as an inheritance.’

29 So we abode in the valley over against Bethpeor.

29 So we remained in the valley opposite (AJ)Beth-peor.

29 So we stayed in the valley facing Beth-peor.

29 We then encamped in the valley opposite Beth-peor."

29 So we stayed in the Valley opposite Beth-peor.
