3 And so we turned, and went up by the way of Bashan; and Og, the king of Bashan, went out against us with his people, to fight in Edrei (to fight us at Edrei).

² And the Lord said to me, Dread thou not him, for he is betaken into thine hand (Do not thou fear him, for he is delivered into thy hands), with all his people, and his land; and thou shalt do to him, as thou didest to Sihon, king of Amorites, that dwelled in Heshbon.

³ Therefore our Lord God betook in our hands also Og, the king of Bashan, and all his people; and we have smitten him unto death, (And so the Lord our God also delivered Og, the king of Bashan, into our hands, with all his people; and we struck down all of them, unto the death,)

⁴ and we wasted all his cities in one time; no town there was of his that escaped us; we destroyed sixty cities, all the country of Argob, of the realm of Og in Bashan. (and we destroyed all his cities at that time; there was no town of his that escaped us; we destroyed sixty cities, all the region of Argob, the kingdom of Og in Bashan.)

⁵ All the cites were strengthened with most high walls, and with gates and bars; without towns unnumberable, that had no walls (besides the innumerable towns, that had no walls).

⁶ And we did away those men, as we did to Sihon, king of Heshbon; and we destroyed each city of that land, and the men, and the women, and (the) little children;

⁷ and we took by prey beasts, and spoils of the cities. (and for prey, we took beasts, and spoils, from all the cities.)

⁸ And we took in that time the land from the hand of the two kings of Amorites, that were beyond (the) Jordan, from the strand of Arnon unto the hill of Hermon, (And so at that time we took from the hands of the two kings of the Amorites, all the land which was east of the Jordan River, from the Arnon River unto Mount Hermon,)

⁹ which hill Sidonians call Sirion, and Amorites call Shenir. (which mountain the Sidonians call Mount Sirion, and the Amorites call Mount Shenir.)

¹⁰ And we took all the cities that were set in the plain, and all the land of Gilead, and of Bashan, unto Salchah and Edrei, cities of the realm of Og, in Bashan. (And we took all the cities that were set there on the plain, and all the land of Gilead, and of Bashan, unto Salchah and Edrei, cities in the kingdom of Og, in Bashan.)

¹¹ For Og alone, king of Bashan, was left of the generation of giants; and his iron bed is showed, which is in Rabbath, of the sons of Ammon, and it hath nine cubits of length, and four cubits of breadth, at the measure of a cubit of a man’s hand. (For only Og, the king of Bashan, was left of the generation of the giants; and his iron bed is on display in the city of Rabbath, of the Ammonites, and it is nine cubits in length, and four cubits in breadth, at the measure of one cubit equal to a man’s hand.)

¹² And we wielded in that time the land, from Aroer, which is on the brink of the strand of Arnon, unto the half part of the hill of Gilead; and I gave his cities to Reuben and to Gad. (And so we took the land from Aroer, which is on the bank of the Arnon River, unto half of the hill country of Gilead; and I gave its cities to the tribes of Reuben and of Gad.)

¹³ And I gave the tother part of Gilead, and all Bashan, of the realm of Og, to the half lineage of Manasseh, and all the country of Argob. All Bashan was called the land of giants. (And I gave the other part of Gilead, and all of Bashan, which was Og’s kingdom, that is, all the region of Argob, to half of the tribe of Manasseh. Previously, all of Bashan was called the land of the giants.)

¹⁴ Jair, the son of Manasseh, wielded all the country of Argob, unto the land of Geshuri and of Maachathi; and he called (the towns there) by his name Bashanhavothjair, that is, the towns of Jair, till into this present day. (Jair, the son of Manasseh, took all the region of Argob, unto the borders of the Geshurites and the Maachathites; and he called the towns there Bashanhavothjair, that is, the towns of Jair, after his own name, and they still be called that unto this present day.)

¹⁵ Also I gave Gilead to Machir; (And I gave Gilead to Machir;)

¹⁶ and to the lineages of Reuben and of Gad I gave the land of Gilead, till to the strand of Arnon, (that is, unto) the middle of the strand, and of the ends till to the strand of Jabbok, which is the term of the sons of Ammon. (and to the tribes of Reuben and of Gad I gave the land of Gilead, unto the middle of the Arnon River in the south, and up to the Jabbok River in the north, which is the border with the Ammonites.)

¹⁷ And I gave to them the plain of the wilderness, unto (the) Jordan, and the terms of Chinnereth unto the sea of (the) desert, the which is the most salt(y) sea, at the roots of the hill of Pisgah, against the east. (And on the west, I gave them the plain, or the Arabah, unto the Jordan River, from the Sea of Galilee, or Lake Galilee, in the north, down to the Salt Sea, or the Dead Sea, in the south, and to the foot of Ashdothpisgah, or Mount Pisgah, on the east.)

¹⁸ And I commanded to you in that time, and said, Your Lord God giveth to you this land into heritage; all ye strong men, (And I commanded to you at that time, and said, The Lord your God hath given you this land for an inheritance; all ye strong men,)

¹⁹ without (your) wives, and little children, and beasts, be ye made ready, and go ye before your brethren, the sons of Israel. For I know that ye have many beasts, and those shall dwell in the cities that I have given to you,

²⁰ till the Lord give rest to your brethren, as he hath given to you, and till they also wield the land which the Lord shall give to them beyond (the) Jordan; then each man shall turn again into his possession that I have given to you. (until the Lord give rest to your brothers, as he hath given to you, and until they also take the land which the Lord shall give them on the other side of the Jordan River; then each man can return to his possession that I have given you.)

²¹ Also I commanded to Joshua in that time, and said, Thine eyes have seen what things your Lord God did to these two kings; so he shall do to all the realms, to which thou shalt go; (And I commanded to Joshua at that time, and said, Thine eyes have seen what the Lord your God did to these two kings; so he shall do to all the kingdoms into which thou shalt go;)

²² dread thou not them; [the Lord our God shall fight for us]. (do not thou fear them; for the Lord your God shall fight for you.)

²³ And I prayed the Lord in that time, and said, (And I prayed to the Lord at that time, and said,)

²⁴ Lord God, thou hast begun to show to me thy servant thy greatness, and thy full strong hand, for none other God there is, either in heaven, either in earth, that may do thy works, and may be comparisoned to thy strength (for there is no other god, either in heaven, or on earth, who can do thy works, and whose strength can be compared to thy strength).

²⁵ Therefore I shall pass, and shall see this best land beyond (the) Jordan, and this noble hill, and Lebanon. (And so I shall cross over, and shall see this best land beyond the Jordan River, and this noble hill country, and the mountains of Lebanon.)

²⁶ And the Lord was wroth to me for you, neither he heard me, but he said to me, It sufficeth to thee; speak thou no more of this thing to me. (But because of you, the Lord was angry with me, and he would not listen to me, and he said to me, It sufficeth for thee; speak thou no more of this thing to me.)

²⁷ Go thou up into the highness of Pisgah, and cast about thine eyes to the west, and north, and south, and east, and behold, for thou shalt not pass this Jordan. (Go thou up onto the top of Mount Pisgah, and cast thine eyes to the west, and the north, and the south, and the east, and see it all, for thou shalt not cross over the Jordan River.)

²⁸ Command thou to Joshua, and strengthen thou him, and comfort him; for he shall go before this people, and he shall part to them the land, which thou shalt see. (Then command thou to Joshua, and strengthen thou him, and encourage him; for he shall lead this people across to take the land, which thou shalt only see.)

²⁹ And we dwelled in the valley against the temple of Bethpeor. (And so we stayed in the valley opposite the town of Bethpeor.)

85 To the overcomer, the song of the sons of Korah. Lord, thou hast blessed thy land; thou hast turned away the captivity of Jacob. (To the overcomer, the song for the sons of Korah. Lord, thou hast blessed thy land; thou hast brought back the captives of Jacob/thou hast returned prosperity to Jacob.)

² Thou hast forgiven the wickedness of thy people; thou hast covered all the sins of them.

³ Thou hast assuaged all thine ire; thou hast turned (thyself) away from the ire of thine indignation.

⁴ God, our health, convert thou us; and turn away thine ire from us. (God, our salvation, bring thou us back/God, our deliverance, turn back to us; and turn away thy anger from us.)

⁵ Whether thou shalt be wroth to us [into] without end; either shalt thou hold forth thine ire from generation into generation? (Shalt thou be angry with us forever? shalt thou bring forth thy anger to all generations?)

⁶ God, thou converted, shalt quicken us; and thy people shall be glad in thee. (God, give thou us new life; and thy people shall be glad, or shall rejoice, in thee.)

⁷ Lord, show thy mercy to us; and give thine health to us. (Lord, show thy love to us; and give thy help to us/and grant us thy salvation, or thy deliverance.)

⁸ I shall hear what the Lord God shall speak in me; for he shall speak peace to his people. And on his holy men; and on them that be turned to heart. (I shall listen to what the Lord God shall say; for he shall speak words of peace to his people. Yea, to us, and to his holy men; and to all who turn towards him with their hearts.)

⁹ Nevertheless his health is nigh (to) men dreading him; that glory dwell in our land. (For his salvation, or his deliverance, is near to those who fear him/is near to those who revere him; so that glory can be in our land.)

¹⁰ Mercy and truth met themselves; rightfulness and peace were kissed. (Love and faithfulness came together; righteousness and peace kissed each other.)

¹¹ Truth came forth (out) of the earth; and rightfulness beheld from heaven. (Faithfulness sprang forth from the earth; and righteousness looked down from heaven.)

¹² For the Lord shall give benignity; and our earth shall give his fruit. (For the Lord shall give prosperity; and our earth shall give its fruit.)

¹³ Rightfulness shall go before him; and shall set his steps in the way. (Righteousness shall go before him; and shall prepare the way for his steps.)

31 Woe to them that go down into Egypt to help, and hope in horses, and have trust on carts, for they be many, and on knights, for they be full strong; and they trust not on the Holy of Israel, and they sought not the Lord. (Woe to them who go down to Egypt for help, and hope in horses, and have trust in chariots, for they be so many, and in horsemen, for they be so strong; but they trust not in the Holy One of Israel, and they sought not the Lord.)

² Forsooth he that is wise, hath brought evil, and took not away his words; and he shall rise altogether against the house of worst men, and against the help of them that work wickedness. (For the Lord is wise, and he hath brought evil, or trouble, and did not take back his words; he shall rise up against the house of evil people, and against the help of those who work wickedness.)

³ Egypt is a man, and not God; and the horses of them be flesh, and not spirit; and the Lord shall bow down his hand, and (both) the helper shall fall down, and (also) he shall fall, to whom help is given, and (they) all shall be wasted together,

⁴ For why the Lord saith these things to me, If a lion roareth, and a whelp of a lion on his prey, when the multitude of shepherds cometh against him, he shall not dread of the voice of them, and he shall not dread of the multitude of them; so the Lord of hosts shall come down, for to fight on the mountain of Zion, and on the little hill thereof. (For the Lord saith these things to me, Like a lion, or the whelp of a lion, roareth over his prey, when a multitude of shepherds cometh against him, and he shall not fear their voice, and he shall not fear their multitude, so the Lord of hosts shall come down, to fight for Mount Zion, and for its hill, or for its summit.)

⁵ As birds flying (over their nests), so the Lord of hosts shall defend Jerusalem; he defending and delivering, passing forth and saving (he defending it, shall rescue it, and hovering over it, he shall save it).

⁶ Ye sons of Israel, be converted, as ye had gone away into depth. (Ye Israelites, turn back to me, ye who have gone so far away from me.)

⁷ Forsooth in that day a man shall cast away the idols of his silver, and the idols of his gold, which your hands made to you into sin. (For on that day everyone shall throw away their idols of silver, and their idols of gold, which your hands made for you to sin with.)

⁸ And Assur shall fall by sword, not of man; and a sword, not of man, shall devour him; and he shall flee, not from the face of sword, and his young men shall be tributaries; (And the Assyrian shall fall by the sword, but not by the sword of a man; yea, a sword, but not a man’s sword, shall devour him; and he shall flee from the face of the sword, and his young men shall be slaves, or shall be put to forced labour;)

⁹ and the strength of him shall pass from fearedfulness, and his princes fleeing shall dread. The Lord said, whose fire is in Zion, and his chimney is in Jerusalem. (and his strength shall pass away because of fearfulness, and his fleeing leaders shall have great fear. Thus saith the Lord, whose fire is in Zion, and his furnace is in Jerusalem.)

1 Apocalypse of Jesus Christ [Apocalypse, or revelation, of Jesus Christ], which God gave to him to make open to his servants, which things it behooveth to be made soon. And he signified, sending by his angel to his servant John,

² which bare witnessing to the word of God, and witnessing of Jesus Christ, in these things, whatever things he saw.

³ Blessed is he that readeth, and he that heareth the words of this prophecy, and keepeth those things that be written in it; for the time is nigh.

⁴ John to the seven churches, that be in Asia, grace and peace to you, of him that is, and that was, and that is to coming [grace to you, and peace, of him that is, and that was, and that is to come]; and of the seven spirits, that be in the sight of his throne;

⁵ and of Jesus Christ, that is a faithful witness, the first begotten of dead men [the first begotten of dead], and prince of kings of the earth; which loved us, and washed us from our sins in his blood,

⁶ and made us a kingdom, and priests to God and to his Father [and priests to God and his Father]; to him be glory and empire into worlds of worlds. Amen.

⁷ Lo! he cometh with clouds, and each eye shall see him, and they that pricked him; and all the kindreds of the earth shall bewail themselves on him [and all kindreds, or lineages, of earth shall wail themselves on him]. Yea, Amen!

⁸ I am alpha and omega, the beginning and the end, saith the Lord God, that is, and that was, and that is to coming, almighty. [I am alpha and omega, the beginning and ending, saith the Lord God, that is, and that was, and that is to come, almighty.]

⁹ I, John [I John], your brother, and partner in tribulation, and kingdom, and patience in Christ Jesus, was in an isle, that is called Patmos, for the word of God, and for the witnessing of Jesus.

¹⁰ I was in Spirit in the Lord's day, and I heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet, [I was in Spirit in the Sunday, and I heard after me a great voice, as of a trump,]

¹¹ saying to me, Write thou in a book that thing that thou seest [saying, That thing that thou seest, write in a book], and send to the seven churches that be in Asia; to Ephesus, [and] to Smyrna, and to Pergamos, and to Thyatira, and to Sardis, and to Philadelphia, and to Laodicea.

¹² And I turned, that I should see the voice that spake with me; and I turned, and I saw seven candlesticks of gold,

¹³ and in the middle of the seven golden candlesticks one like to the Son of man, clothed with a long garment, and girded at the teats with a golden girdle.

¹⁴ And the head of him and his hairs were white, as white wool, and as snow; and the eyes of him as flame of fire,

¹⁵ and his feet like to latten [and his feet like to dross of gold, or latten], as in a burning chimney; and the voice of him as the voice of many waters.

¹⁶ And he had in his right hand seven stars, and a sword sharp on ever-either side [and a sword sharp on both sides] went out of his mouth; and his face as the sun shineth in his virtue.

¹⁷ And when I had seen him, I felled down [I fell down] at his feet, as dead. And he putted his right hand on me, and said^[a], Do not thou dread; I am the first and the last;

¹⁸ and I am alive, and I was dead; and lo! I am living into worlds of worlds, and I have the keys of death and of hell.

¹⁹ Therefore write thou which things thou hast seen, and which be, and which it behooveth to be done after these things.

²⁰ The sacrament of the seven stars [They mystery of seven stars], which thou sawest in my right hand, and the seven golden candlesticks; the seven stars be [the] angels of the seven churches, and the seven candlesticks be [the] seven churches.
