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.

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.

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.

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.

Ko enei pa katoa hanga rawa ki nga taiepa teitei, ki nga tatu, ki nga tutaki; haunga nga kainga noho koraha, tona tini.

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.

Ko nga kararehe ia, me nga taonga o nga pa, i tangohia ma tatou.

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;

Ko Heremona i huaina e nga Haironi ko Hiriona; na nga Amori ia i hua ko Heniri;

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

15 A tukua atu ana e ahau a Kireara mo Makiri.

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.

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.

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.

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;

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.

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.

22 Kei wehi koutou i a ratou: na te mea, ma Ihowa, ma to koutou Atua, ta koutou whawhai.

23 I inoi ano ahau i taua wa ki a Ihowa, i mea,

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?

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.

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.

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.

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.

29 Na ka noho tatou ki te raorao i te ritenga atu o Petepeoro.

Defeat of Og King of Bashan

Next we turned and went up along the road toward Bashan, and Og king of Bashan(A) with his whole army marched out to meet us in battle at Edrei.(B) The Lord said to me, “Do not be afraid(C) of him, for I have delivered him into your hands, along with his whole army and his land. Do to him what you did to Sihon king of the Amorites, who reigned in Heshbon.”

So the Lord our God also gave into our hands Og king of Bashan and all his army. We struck them down,(D) leaving no survivors.(E) At that time we took all his cities.(F) There was not one of the sixty cities that we did not take from them—the whole region of Argob, Og’s kingdom(G) in Bashan.(H) All these cities were fortified with high walls and with gates and bars, and there were also a great many unwalled villages. We completely destroyed[a] them, as we had done with Sihon king of Heshbon, destroying[b](I) every city—men, women and children. But all the livestock(J) and the plunder from their cities we carried off for ourselves.

So at that time we took from these two kings of the Amorites(K) the territory east of the Jordan, from the Arnon Gorge as far as Mount Hermon.(L) (Hermon is called Sirion(M) by the Sidonians; the Amorites call it Senir.)(N) 10 We took all the towns on the plateau, and all Gilead, and all Bashan as far as Salekah(O) and Edrei, towns of Og’s kingdom in Bashan. 11 (Og king of Bashan was the last of the Rephaites.(P) His bed was decorated with iron and was more than nine cubits long and four cubits wide.[c] It is still in Rabbah(Q) of the Ammonites.)

Division of the Land

12 Of the land that we took over at that time, I gave the Reubenites and the Gadites the territory north of Aroer(R) by the Arnon Gorge, including half the hill country of Gilead, together with its towns. 13 The rest of Gilead and also all of Bashan, the kingdom of Og, I gave to the half-tribe of Manasseh.(S) (The whole region of Argob in Bashan used to be known as a land of the Rephaites.(T) 14 Jair,(U) a descendant of Manasseh, took the whole region of Argob as far as the border of the Geshurites and the Maakathites;(V) it was named(W) after him, so that to this day Bashan is called Havvoth Jair.[d]) 15 And I gave Gilead to Makir.(X) 16 But to the Reubenites and the Gadites I gave the territory extending from Gilead down to the Arnon Gorge (the middle of the gorge being the border) and out to the Jabbok River,(Y) which is the border of the Ammonites. 17 Its western border was the Jordan in the Arabah,(Z) from Kinnereth(AA) to the Sea of the Arabah(AB) (that is, the Dead Sea(AC)), below the slopes of Pisgah.

18 I commanded you at that time: “The Lord your God has given(AD) you this land to take possession of it. But all your able-bodied men, armed for battle, must cross over ahead of the other Israelites.(AE) 19 However, your wives,(AF) your children and your livestock(AG) (I know you have much livestock) may stay in the towns I have given you, 20 until the Lord gives rest to your fellow Israelites as he has to you, and they too have taken over the land that the Lord your God is giving them across the Jordan. After that, each of you may go back to the possession I have given you.”

Moses Forbidden to Cross the Jordan

21 At that time I commanded Joshua: “You have seen with your own eyes all that the Lord your God has done to these two kings. The Lord will do the same to all the kingdoms over there where you are going. 22 Do not be afraid(AH) of them;(AI) the Lord your God himself will fight(AJ) for you.”

23 At that time I pleaded(AK) with the Lord: 24 “Sovereign Lord, you have begun to show to your servant your greatness(AL) and your strong hand. For what god(AM) is there in heaven or on earth who can do the deeds and mighty works(AN) you do?(AO) 25 Let me go over and see the good land(AP) beyond the Jordan—that fine hill country and Lebanon.(AQ)

26 But because of you the Lord was angry(AR) with me and would not listen to me. “That is enough,” the Lord said. “Do not speak to me anymore about this matter. 27 Go up to the top of Pisgah(AS) and look west and north and south and east.(AT) Look at the land with your own eyes, since you are not going to cross(AU) this Jordan.(AV) 28 But commission(AW) Joshua, and encourage(AX) and strengthen him, for he will lead this people across(AY) and will cause them to inherit the land that you will see.” 29 So we stayed in the valley near Beth Peor.(AZ)
