4 Mosebog 32

¹ Rubeniterne og Gaditerne havde meget Kvæg i store mængder. Da de nu så Jazers Land og Gileads Land, fandt de, at Stedet egnede sig til Kvægavl.

¹ Now the sons of Reuben and the sons of Gad had an exceedingly large number of livestock. So when they saw the land of Jazer and the land of Gilead, that it was indeed a place suitable for livestock,

³ "Atarot, Dibon, Ja'zer, Nimra, Hesjbon, Elale, Sebam, Nebo og Beon,

³ “Ataroth, Dibon, Jazer, Nimrah, Heshbon, Elealeh, Sebam, Nebo and Beon,

⁵ Og de sagde: "Dersom vi har fundet Nåde for dine Øjne, så lad dine Trælle få dette Land i Eje; før os ikke over Jordan!"

⁵ They said, “If we have found favor in your sight, let this land be given to your servants as a possession; do not take us across the Jordan.”

⁷ Og hvorfor vil I betage Israelitterne Modet til at drage over til det Land, HERREN har givet dem?

⁷ Now why are you discouraging the sons of Israel from crossing over into the land which the Lord has given them?

⁹ da de var draget op til Esjkoldalen og havde set på Landet, det og de Israelitterne Modet til at drage ind i det Land, HERREN havde givet dem.

⁹ For when they went up to the valley of Eshcol and saw the land, they discouraged the sons of Israel so that they did not go into the land which the Lord had given them.

¹¹ De Mænd, der er draget op fra Ægypten, fra Tyveårsalderen og opefter, skal ikke få det Land at se, jeg tilsvor Abraham, Isak og Jakob, fordi de ikke viste mig fuld lydighed,

¹¹ ‘None of the men who came up from Egypt, from twenty years old and upward, shall see the land which I swore to Abraham, to Isaac and to Jacob; for they did not follow Me fully,

¹³ Og HERRENs Vrede blussede op mod Israel, og han lod dem vanke om i Ørkenen i fyrretyve År, indtil hele den Slægt var gået til Grunde, der gjorde, hvad der var ondt i HERRENs Øjne.

¹³ So the Lord’s anger burned against Israel, and He made them wander in the wilderness forty years, until the entire generation of those who had done evil in the sight of the Lord was destroyed.

¹⁵ Når I viger bort fra ham, vil han lade det blive endnu længer i Ørkenen, og I bringer Fordærvelse over hele dette Folk."

¹⁵ For if you turn away from following Him, He will once more abandon them in the wilderness, and you will destroy all these people.”

¹⁷ men selv vil vi ruste os til Kamp og drage i Spidsen for Israelitterne, til vi har bragt dem hen til deres Sted; imens skal vore Familier blive i de befæstede Byer i Ly for Landets indbyggere.

¹⁷ but we ourselves will be armed ready to go before the sons of Israel, until we have brought them to their place, while our little ones live in the fortified cities because of the inhabitants of the land.

¹⁹ thi vi vil ikke have Arvelod sammen med dem på den anden Side af Jordan og længere borte, eftersom vi har fået vor Arvelod her på denne Side af Jordan på Østsiden."

¹⁹ For we will not have an inheritance with them on the other side of the Jordan and beyond, because our inheritance has fallen to us on this side of the Jordan toward the east.”

²¹ hvis alle eders kamprustede Mænd overskrider Jordan for HERRENs Åsyn og bliver der, indtil han har jaget sine Fjender bort fra sit Åsyn,

²¹ and all of you armed men cross over the Jordan before the Lord until He has driven His enemies out from before Him,

²³ Men hvis I ikke gør det, se, da synder I mod HERREN, og da skal I få eders Synd at mærke, den skal nok finde eder.

²³ But if you will not do so, behold, you have sinned against the Lord, and be sure your sin will find you out.

²⁵ Da sagde Gaditerne og Rubeniterne til Moses: "Dine Trælle vil gøre, som min Herre byder;

²⁵ The sons of Gad and the sons of Reuben spoke to Moses, saying, “Your servants will do just as my lord commands.

²⁷ men dine Trælle vil drage over og tage Del i Krigen, så mange som er rustet til Kamp for HERRENs Åsyn, således som min Herre har sagt."

²⁷ while your servants, everyone who is armed for war, will cross over in the presence of the Lord to battle, just as my lord says.”

²⁹ og Moses sagde til dem: "Hvis Gaditerne og Rubeniterne, så mange som er rustet til Kamp for HERRENs Åsyn, går over Jordan sammen med eder og Landet bliver eder underlagt, skal I give dem Gilead i Eje;

²⁹ Moses said to them, “If the sons of Gad and the sons of Reuben, everyone who is armed for battle, will cross with you over the Jordan in the presence of the Lord, and the land is subdued before you, then you shall give them the land of Gilead for a possession;

³¹ Da svarede Gaditerne og Rubeniterne: "Hvad HERREN har talt til dine Trælle, vil vi gøre;

³¹ The sons of Gad and the sons of Reuben answered, saying, “As the Lord has said to your servants, so we will do.

³³ Da gav Moses Gaditerne, Rubeniterne og Josefs Søn Manasses halve Stamme Amoriterkongen Sihons Kongerige og kong Og af Basans kongerige, Landet med Byerne og deres Område, Landets Byer rundt om.

³³ So Moses gave to them, to the sons of Gad and to the sons of Reuben and to the half-tribe of Joseph’s son Manasseh, the kingdom of Sihon, king of the Amorites and the kingdom of Og, the king of Bashan, the land with its cities with their territories, the cities of the surrounding land.

³⁵ Atarot Sjofan, Ja'zer, Jogbeba,

³⁵ and Atroth-shophan and Jazer and Jogbehah,

³⁷ og Rubeniterne byggede Hesjbon, Elale og Kirjatajim,

³⁷ The sons of Reuben built Heshbon and Elealeh and Kiriathaim,

³⁹ Og Manasses Søn Makirs Sønner drog til Gilead og erobrede det og drev de der boende Amoriter bort;

³⁹ The sons of Machir the son of Manasseh went to Gilead and took it, and dispossessed the Amorites who were in it.

⁴¹ men Manasses Søn Jair drog hen og erobrede deres Teltbyer og kaldte dem Jairs Teltbyer.

⁴¹ Jair the son of Manasseh went and took its towns, and called them Havvoth-jair.
