3 — Deuteronomio

1Then we turned and went by the way of Basan: and Og the king of Basan came out to meet us with his people to fight in Edrai.Per la qual cosa volgendoci (in altra parte) salimmo per la strada, che va a Basan: e Og re di Basan ci si fe' incontro con tutta la sua gente per venire a battaglia in Edrai.THERFORE turning we went vp by the way of Basan: and Og the king of Basan came forth to meete vs with his people to fight in Edrai.Itaque conversi ascendimus per iter Basan: egressusque est Og rex Basan in occursum nobis cum populo suo ad bellandum in Edrai. 2And the Lord said to me: Fear him not: because he is delivered into thy hand, with all his people and his land: and thou shalt do to him as thou hast done to Sehon king of the Amorrhites, that dwelt in Hesebon.E il Signore disse a me: Nol temere: perocché egli è stato dato in tuo potere con tutta la sua gente, e colla sua terra: e farai a lui quel che facesti a Sehon re degli Amorrhei, che abitava in Hesebon.And our Lord said to me: Feare him not: because he is deliuered into thy hand with al his people and his land: and thou shalt doe to him as thou hast done to Sehon king of the Amorrheites, that dwelt in Hesebon.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. 3So the Lord our God delivered into our hands, Og also, the king of Basan, and all his people: and we utterly destroyed them,Diede adunque il Signore Dio nostro in nostro potere anche Og re di Basan, e tutto il suo popolo: e noi gli uccidemmo dal primo all'ultimo,Therfore the Lord our God deliuered into our handes Og also the king of Basan, and al his people: and we stroke them to vtter destruction,Tradidit ergo Dominus Deus noster in manibus nostris etiam Og regem Basan, et universum populum ejus: percussimusque eos usque ad internecionem, 4Wasting all his cities at one time, there was not a town that escaped us: sixty cities, all the country of Argob the kingdom of Og in Basan.Devastando a un tempo tutte le sue città: non vi fu città che da noi si salvasse: prendemmo sessanta città, e tutto il paese di Argob regno di Og, signore di Basan.waisting al his cities at one time. there was not a towne that escaped vs: sixtie cities, al the countrie of Argob the kingdome of Og in Basan.vastantes cunctas civitates illius uno tempore. Non fuit oppidum, quod nos effugeret: sexaginta urbes, omnem regionem Argob regni Og in Basan. 5All the cities were fenced with very high walls, and with gates and bars, besides innumerable towns that had no walls.Tutte le città eran difese da mura altissime con porte, e contrafforti, oltre gli innumerabili castelli, che eran senza muraglie.Al the cities were fensed with verie high walles, and with gates and barres, beside innumerable townes that had no walles.Cunctæ urbes erant munitæ muris altissimis, portisque et vectibus, absque oppidis innumeris, quæ non habebant muros.

6And we utterly destroyed them, as we had done to Sehon the king of Hesebon, destroying every city, men and women and children:E sterminammo quella gente, come avevamo fatto di Sehon re di Hesebon, sterminando in ogni città uomini e donne e fanciulli,And we destroyed them, as we had done to Sehon the king of Hesebon, destroying euerie citie, and men and wemen and children:Et delevimus eos, sicut feceramus Sehon regi Hesebon, disperdentes omnem civitatem, virosque ac mulieres et parvulos: 7But the cattle and the spoils of the cities we took for our prey.E menando via i bestiami, e le spoglie delle città.but the cattel, and the spoyles of the cities we tooke for our praye.jumenta autem et spolia urbium diripuimus. 8And we took at that time the land out of the hand of the two kings of the Amorrhites, that were beyond the Jordan: from the torrent Arnon unto the mount Hermon,E occupammo allora la terra posseduta da' due re Amorrhei, che erano di qua dal Giordano, dal torrente Arnon sino al monte Hermon,And we tooke at that time the land out of the hand of two kinges of the Amorrheites, that were beyond Iordan: from the torrent Arnon vnto the mountaine Hermon,Tulimusque illo in tempore terram de manu duorum regum Amorrhæorum, qui erant trans Jordanem: a torrente Arnon usque ad montem Hernon, 9Which the Sidonians call Sarion, and the Amorrhites Sanir:A cui i Sidoni danno il nome di Sarion, e gli Amorrhei di Sanir:which the Sidonians cal Sarion, and the Amorrheites Sanir:quem Sidonii Sarion vocant, et Amorrhæi Sanir: 10All the cities that are situate in the plain, and all the land of Galaad and Basan as far as Selcha and Edrai, cities of the kingdom of Og in Basan.E prendemmo tutte le città poste in pianura, e tutta la terra di Galaad, e di Basan fino a Selcha, ed Edrai, città del regno di Og in Basan.al the cities, that are situated in the plaine, and al the Land of Galaad and Basan as farre as Selcha, and Edrai cities of the kingdome of Og in Basan.omnes civitates, quæ sitæ sunt in planitie, et universam terram Galaad et Basan usque ad Selcha, et Edrai civitates regni Og in Basan. 11For only Og king of Basan remained of the race of the giants. His bed of iron is shewn, which is in Rabbath of the children of Ammon, being nine cubits long, and four broad after the measure of the cubit of a man’s hand.Perocché Og re di Basan era rimaso egli il solo della stirpe de' giganti. Si mostra il suo letto di ferro, che è in Rabbath città de' figliuoli di Ammon, che ha nove cubiti di lunghezza, e quattro di larghezza, secondo la misura del cubito ordinario di un uomo.For onlie Og the king of Basan remayned of the stocke of giantes. his bed of yron is shewed, which is in Rabbath of the children of Ammon, hauing nine cubites in length, and foure in breadth after the measure of the cubite of a mans hand.Solus quippe Og rex Basan restiterat de stirpe gigantum. Monstratur lectus ejus ferreus, qui est in Rabbath filiorum Ammon, novem cubitos habens longitudinis, et quatuor latitudinis ad mensuram cubiti virilis manus.

12And we possessed the land at that time from Aroer, which is upon the bank of the torrent Arnon, unto the half of mount Galaad: and I gave the cities thereof to Ruben and Gad.E noi allora occupammo la terra da Aroer, che è sulla ripa del torrente Arnon, sino al mezzo della montagna di Galaad: e ne diedi le città a Ruben, e a Gad.And we possessed the Land at that time from Aroer, which is vpon the banke of the torrent Arnon, vnto the halfe part of mount Galaad: and the cities therof I gaue to Ruben and Gad.Terramque possedimus tempore illo ab Aroër, quæ est super ripam torrentis Arnon, usque ad mediam partem montis Galaad: et civitates illius dedi Ruben et Gad. 13And I delivered the other part of Galaad, and all Basan the kingdom of Og to the half tribe of Manasses, all the country of Argob: and all Basan is called the Land of giants.E il rimanente del paese di Galaad, e tutto quello di Basan del regno di Og, lo assegnai a mezza la tribù di Manasse, con tutta la regione di Argob: tutto il Basan è chiamato Terra dei Giganti.And the other part of Galaad, and al Basan of the kingdome of Og, I deliuered to the halfe tribe of Manasses, al the countrie of Argob: and al Basan is called the Land of giantes.Reliquam autem partem Galaad, et omnem Basan regni Og, tradidi mediæ tribui Manasse, omnem regionem Argob: cunctaque Basan vocatur Terra gigantum. 14Jair the son of Manasses possessed all the country of Argob unto the borders of Gessuri, and Machati. And he called Basan by his own name, Havoth Jair, that is to say, the towns of Jair, until this present day.Jair figliuolo di Manasse entrò in possesso di tutto il paese di Argob sino ai confini di Gessuri e di Machati. E i villaggi di Basan chiamò col suo nome Havoth-Jair, cioè Villaggi di Jair, fino al dì d'oggi.Iair the sonne of Manasses possessed al the countrie of Argob vnto the borders of Gessuri, and Machati. And he called Basan by his owne name, Hauoth Iair, that is to say, the townes of Iair, vntil this present dayJair filius Manasse possedit omnem regionem Argob usque ad terminos Gessuri et Machati. Vocavitque ex nomine suo Basan, Havoth Jair, id est, Villas Jair, usque in præsentem diem. 15To Machir also I gave Galaad.Parimente a Machir io diedi Galaad.To Machir also I gaue Galaad.Machir quoque dedi Galaad. 16And to the tribes of Ruben and Gad I gave of the land of Galaad as far as the torrent Arnon, half the torrent, and the confines even unto the torrent Jeboc, which is the border of the children of Ammon:E alle tribù di Ruben e di Gad diedi del paese di Galaad sino al torrente Arnon la metà del torrente, e il terreno adiacente sino al torrente Jaboc, che confina coi figliuoli di Ammon:And to the tribes of Ruben and Gad I gaue of the Land of Galaad as farre as the Torrent Arnon, halfe of the torrent, and the confines vnto the torrent Ieboc, which is the border of the childrē of Ammon:Et tribubus Ruben et Gad dedi de terra Galaad usque ad torrentem Arnon medium torrentis, et confinium usque ad torrentem Jeboc, qui est terminus filiorum Ammon:

17And the plain of the wilderness, and the Jordan, and the borders of Cenereth unto the sea of the desert, which is the most salt sea, to the foot of mount Phasga eastward.E la pianura del deserto intorno al Giordano, e il terreno, che confina con Cenereth sino al mar del deserto, che è grandemente salato, e sino alle falde del monte Phasga verso l'oriente.and the plaine of the wildernesse, and Iordan, and the borders of Cenereth vnto the sea of the desert, which is most salt, at the foote of mount Phasga against the east.et planitiem solitudinis, atque Jordanem, et terminos Cenereth usque ad mare deserti, quod est salsissimum, ad radices montis Phasga contra orientem. 18And I commanded you at that time, saying: The Lord your God giveth you this land for an inheritance, go ye well appointed before your brethren the children of Israel, all the strong men of you.E io allora ordinai, e dissi loro: Il Signore Dio vostro dà a voi questa terra in eredità: voi tutti uomini robusti andate armati innanzi a' vostri fratelli figliuoli d'Israele,And I commāded you at that time, saying: The Lord your God geueth you this land for an inheritance, goe wel appointed before your brethren the children of Israel al you strong men:Præcepique vobis in tempore illo, dicens: Dominus Deus vester dat vobis terram hanc in hæreditatem: expediti præcedite fratres vestros filios Israël omnes viri robusti, 19Leaving your wives and children and cattle. For I know you have much cattle, and they must remain in the cities, which I have delivered to you.Senza le mogli, e i fanciulli, e i bestiami. Perocché io so, che avete molti greggi, e questi dovran rimanere nelle città, che io vi ho date,except your wiues, and litle ones and your cattel. For I know you haue much cattel, & they must remaine in the cities, which I haue deliuered you,absque uxoribus, et parvulis, atque jumentis. Novi enim quod plura habeatis pecora, et in urbibus remanere debebunt, quas tradidi vobis, 20Until the Lord give rest to your brethren, as he hath given to you: and they also possess the land, which he will give them beyond the Jordan: then shall every man return to his possession, which I have given you.Sino a tanto che il Signore dia riposo a' vostri fratelli, come lo ho dato a voi, ed eglino pure sien padroni della terra, che egli ad essi darà oltre il Giordano: allora ognuno di voi tornerà nelle sue possessioni, che io vi ho date.vntil our Lord geue rest to your brethren, as he hath geuen to you: and they also possesse the Land, which he wil geue them beyond Iordan: then shal euerie man returne to his possession, which I haue geuen you.donec requiem tribuat Dominus fratribus vestris, sicut vobis tribuit: et possideant ipsi etiam terram, quam daturus est eis trans Jordanem: tunc revertetur unusquisque in possessionem suam, quam dedi vobis.

21I commanded Josue also at that time, saying: Thy eyes have seen what the Lord your God hath done to these two kings: so will he do to all the kingdoms to which thou shalt pass.E allora eziandio avvertii Giosuè, dicendogli: Gli occhi tuoi han veduto quel che ha fatto il Signore Dio vostro a que' due regi; lo stesso farà egli a tutti i reami, ne' quali tu entrerai.Iosue also at that time I commanded, saying: Thyne eyes haue seene what the Lord your God hath done to these two kinges: so wil he doe to al the kingdomes, to the which thou shalt passe.Josue 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. 22Fear them not: for the Lord your God will fight for you.Non li temere: perocché il Signore Dio vostro combatterà per voi.Feare them not: for the Lord your God wil fight for you.Ne timeas eos: Dominus enim Deus vester pugnabit pro vobis. 23And I besought the Lord at that time, saying:E io pregai allora il Signore, e dissi:And I prayed our Lord at that time, saying:Precatusque sum Dominum in tempore illo, dicens: 24Lord God, thou hast begun to shew unto thy servant thy greatness, and most mighty hand, for there is no other God either in heaven or earth, that is able to do thy works, or to be compared to thy strength.Signore Dio, tu hai principiato a far conoscere al tuo servo la tua grandezza, e la possanza della tua mano: conciossiaché non vi ha altro Dio, o in cielo, o in terra, che possa fare quel che fai tu, e paragonarsi a te in fortezza.Lord God thou hast begonne to shew vnto thy seruant thy greatnes, and most mightie hand. for neither is there other God either in heauen, or in earth, that is able to doe thy workes, and to be compared to thy strength.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. 25I will pass over therefore, and will see this excellent land beyond the Jordan, and this goodly mountain, and Libanus.Io adunque passerò a vedere quella terra sì buona di là dal Giordano, e quel monte egregio, e il Libano.I wil passe ouer therfore, and wil see this excellent Land beyond Iordan, and this goodlie mountaine, and Libanus.Transibo igitur, et videbo terram hanc optimam trans Jordanem, et montem istum egregium, et Libanum. 26And the Lord was angry with me on your account and heard me not, but said to me: It is enough: speak no more to me of this matter.E il Signore si adirò meco a causa di voi, e non mi esaudì, e mi disse: Ti basti questo; non parlarmi mai più di tal cosa.And our Lord was angrie with me for you, and heard me not, but said to me: It sufficeth thee: speake no more to me of this matter.Iratusque est Dominus mihi propter vos, nec exaudivit me, sed dixit mihi: Sufficit tibi: nequaquam ultra loquaris de hac re ad me.

27Go up to the top of Phasga, and cast thy eyes round about to the west, and to the north, and to the south, and to the east, and behold it, for thou shalt not pass this Jordan.Monta sulla vetta del Phasga, e gira l'occhio ad occidente, e a settentrione, a mezzodì, e ad oriente, e osserva: perocché tu non passerai quel Giordano.Goe vp to the toppe of Phasga, and cast thine cies round about to the west, and to the north, and the south, and the east, and behold it. for thou shalt not passe this Iordan.Ascende cacumen Phasgæ, et oculos tuos circumfer ad occidentem, et ad aquilonem, austrumque et orientem, et aspice; nec enim transibis Jordanem istum. 28Command Josue, and encourage and strengthen him: for he shall go before this people, and shall divide unto them the land which thou shalt see.Da' i tuoi documenti a Giosuè, e fortificalo, e ispira a lui coraggio: perocché egli andrà innanzi a questo popolo, e gli distribuirà la terra, cui tu vedrai.Command Iosue, and encourage and strenghen him: for he shal goe before this people, and shal diuide vnto them the Land, which thou shalt see.Præcipe Josue, et corrobora eum atque conforta: quia ipse præcedet populum istum, et dividet eis terram quam visurus es. 29And we abode in the valley over against the temple of Phogor.E noi ci fermammo nella valle dirimpetto al tempio di Phogor.And we abode in the valley against the temple of Phogor.Mansimusque in valle contra fanum Phogor.
