Guerra contra Basán
(Nm 21:31-35)
3 Luego seguimos hacia Basán, pero entonces el rey Og de Basán salió con todo su ejército a enfrentarse con nosotros en Edrey. 2 El SEÑOR me dijo: «No le temas, porque a ustedes yo les he entregado a él, a su gente y a su tierra, y ustedes le harán a él lo mismo que le hicieron al rey Sijón de los amorreos que reinaba en Hesbón».
3 Entonces el SEÑOR nuestro Dios nos entregó al rey Og de Basán y a todo su ejército, y los derrotamos de tal forma que no hubo sobrevivientes. 4 En esa oportunidad capturamos todas sus ciudades. No quedó ninguna población sin ser conquistada. En total tomamos 60 ciudades que estaban en la región de Argob, el reino de Og de Basán. 5 Todas esas ciudades estaban fortificadas con murallas, portones altos y barras de hierro. Además había muchos pueblos sin murallas. 6 Los destruimos completamente, así como habíamos destruido al rey Sijón de Hesbón. Matamos en cada ciudad a todos los hombres, mujeres y niños, 7 pero todo el ganado y el botín de las ciudades los tomamos para nosotros.
8 Entonces, en aquel tiempo, tomamos la tierra de los dos reyes amorreos que estaba en el lado oriental del río Jordán, desde el arroyo Arnón hasta el monte Hermón. 9 (Los sidonios llamaban Hermón a Sirión, y los amorreos la llamaban Senir). 10 Tomamos todas las ciudades de los llanos altos, todo Galaad y todo Basán hasta Salcá y Edrey. Estas eran las ciudades del reino de Og en Basán. 11 El rey Og de Basán era uno de los pocos refaítas que aun quedaban. Él tenía una cama de hierro de 4 metros y medio de largo por 2 de ancho.[a] La cama todavía se encuentra en Rabá de los amonitas.
La tierra al oriente del río Jordán
(Nm 32:1-42)
12 Entonces en aquel tiempo tomamos posesión del siguiente territorio: desde Aroer que está en el arroyo Arnón, yo les di la mitad de la región montañosa de Galaad y sus ciudades a los rubenitas y a los gaditas. 13 El resto de Galaad y todo Basán, el reino de Og, se lo di a la media tribu de Manasés. Toda la región del Argob, en Basán, es llamada la tierra de los refaítas. 14 Yaír, de la tribu de Manasés, tomó toda la región de Argob, hasta el límite de los guesureos y los macateos, y le puso por nombre Javot Yaír, y así se llama hasta el día de hoy.
15 A Maquir le di Galaad. 16 A los rubenitas y a los gaditas les di la tierra desde Galaad hasta el arroyo Arnón, siendo el centro del valle la frontera, y hasta arriba, hacia el río Jaboc, la frontera de los amonitas. 17 El Arabá y el río Jordán eran la frontera occidental, desde el lago de Galilea[b] hasta el mar Muerto[c], en las laderas del monte Pisgá al oriente.
18 Yo les ordené esto en aquel tiempo: «El SEÑOR su Dios les ha dado a ustedes esta tierra en posesión. Todos ustedes, los guerreros que han sido llamados[d] cruzarán el río Jordán delante de sus hermanos, el pueblo de Israel. 19 Solamente sus esposas, hijos y ganado, pues sé que tienen mucho ganado, se quedarán en las ciudades que yo les he dado, 20 hasta que el SEÑOR les haya dado descanso a sus hermanos, como les ha dado descanso a ustedes; y hasta que ellos también hayan tomado posesión de la tierra que el SEÑOR su Dios les da al otro lado del río Jordán. Luego, todos ustedes podrán volver a la tierra que les he dado».
21 En aquel tiempo, yo le ordené esto a Josué: «Tú has visto lo que el SEÑOR su Dios les hizo a esos dos reyes. El SEÑOR les hará lo mismo a todos los reinos por los que ustedes están a punto de pasar. 22 No les teman, porque el SEÑOR su Dios está peleando por ustedes».
Prohibición a Moisés de entrar a Canaán
23 Entonces yo le rogué así al SEÑOR en aquel tiempo: 24 «Oh Señor DIOS, solamente has comenzado a mostrarme a mí, tu siervo, lo grande y poderoso que eres. No hay dios en el cielo ni en la tierra que pueda hacer las maravillas que tú haces. 25 Te ruego que me dejes cruzar y ver esa tierra buena que está al otro lado del río Jordán. Déjame ver esas hermosas montañas y la región del Líbano».
26 Pero el SEÑOR, como estaba muy enojado conmigo por culpa de ustedes, no quiso concederme mi deseo. El SEÑOR me dijo: «¡Ya basta! No insistas más sobre este asunto. 27 Sube a la cima del monte Pisgá y observa al occidente y al norte, al sur y al oriente, y observa con tus propios ojos, pero no podrás cruzar el río Jordán. 28 Dale instrucciones a Josué y ayúdale a ser fuerte y valiente, porque él llevará a este pueblo al otro lado del río y él hará que hereden la tierra que ves».
29 Luego nos quedamos en el valle cerca de Bet Peor.

Og, king of Bashan
3 Then we turned and we went along the road towards Bashan. Og, king of Bashan, marched out with his whole army to attack us at Edrei. 2 But the Lord said to me, ‘Do not be afraid of him. I have given him to you with his whole army and his land. You must do the same thing to Og as you did to Sihon, king of the Amorites, who ruled in Heshbon.’
3 So the Lord our God put Og, king of Bashan, under our power, as well as his whole army. We killed them all so that we left no one alive. 4 Then we took all of his cities. We took power over all the cities in the region of Argob where King Og of Bashan ruled. There were 60 cities. 5 All the cities had high walls around them, with gates that the people locked. There were also very many villages which did not have walls around them. 6 We destroyed them completely as a gift to the Lord. We had done the same thing to the cities of Sihon, king of Heshbon. We destroyed every city and we killed all the men, women and children. 7 But we kept all the animals and the valuable things from the cities for ourselves.
8 So, at that time, we took power over all the land that the two Amorite kings, Og and Bashan, had ruled. Their land was east of the Jordan River, from the Arnon valley to Mount Hermon. 9 (The people from Sidon call Mount Hermon ‘Sirion’. The Amorites call it ‘Senir’.) 10 We took all their cities in the high, flat land and cities in the whole of Gilead and in Bashan. We went as far as Salecah and Edrei, cities that belonged to the kingdom of Og in Bashan. 11 Og, king of Bashan, was the only descendant of the Rephaites who had still been alive. He had an iron bed that is still in the Ammonites' town, Rabbah. It was 4 metres long and 2 metres wide.
Moses gives land to three tribes
12 When we had taken power over all that land, I gave some of it to the tribes of Reuben and Gad. I gave them the land north of Aroer near the Arnon valley. I also gave them half of the hill country of Gilead and the cities there. 13 I gave the other part of Gilead to one half of the tribe of Manasseh. I also gave Og's kingdom, Bashan, to them.[a] People called all the region of Argob in Bashan the land of the Rephaites.
14 Jair belonged to the tribe of Manasseh. He took power over all the region of Argob. He went as far as the borders of Geshur and Maakah. Then he gave his own name to that land. To this day, Bashan has the name ‘Jair's towns’. 15 I gave Gilead to Makir, who also belonged to the tribe of Manasseh.
16 As for the tribes of Reuben and Gad, I gave them land from Gilead to the Arnon valley. The middle of the valley was the border of their land. Their land went as far as the Jabbok valley, which is the border of the Ammonites' land. 17 The valley of the Jordan River was also a border of their land. It went from Lake Galilee as far as the Salt Sea, with Mount Pisgah to the east.[b]
18 At that time I commanded you, ‘The Lord your God has given this land to you, for you to live in it. But all your soldiers must take their weapons and they must cross the Jordan River. You must go in front of the other Israelite tribes across the river. 19 But your wives, your children and your animals may stay here in the towns that I have given to you. I know that you have many animals. 20 Your men must fight to help the other Israelites until the Lord gives them a safe place to live. He has already given you a safe place to live. Now you must help the other Israelites to take the land which the Lord your God is giving to them. That land is on the other side of the Jordan River. When they take the land for themselves, you may return here to the land that I have given to you.’
Moses will not cross the Jordan River
21 At that time, I commanded Joshua, ‘You have seen everything that the Lord your God has done to those two kings, Sihon and Og. He will do the same thing to the kingdoms where you are going. 22 So do not be afraid of them. The Lord your God himself will fight to help you.’
23 At that time, I asked the Lord many times, 24 ‘Almighty Lord, I am your servant. You are showing me how great and how strong you are. There is no other god in heaven or on earth that can do the great things that you do. 25 Please let me go across the Jordan River! I want to see the good land over there. I want to see the beautiful hills and the mountains in Lebanon.’
26 But the Lord was angry with me, because of you. He would not answer my prayer. He said, ‘You have said enough! Do not speak to me about that any more. 27 Go up to the top of Mount Pisgah. Stand there and look all around, to the west, north, south and east. Look carefully at the land, because you will not go across the Jordan River. 28 Now you must tell Joshua what to do. Tell him to be brave and strong. He will lead my people across the river into the land that you see. He will help them to take the land for themselves.’
29 After that, we stayed in the valley near Beth-Peor.

Defeat of Og King of Bashan
3 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) 2 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.”
3 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) 4 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) 5 All these cities were fortified with high walls and with gates and bars, and there were also a great many unwalled villages. 6 We completely destroyed[a] them, as we had done with Sihon king of Heshbon, destroying[b](I) every city—men, women and children. 7 But all the livestock(J) and the plunder from their cities we carried off for ourselves.
8 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) 9 (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)
