يَشُوع 18

١ 1 وَٱجْتَمَعَ كُلُّ جَمَاعَةِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ فِي شِيلُوهَ وَنَصَبُوا هُنَاكَ خَيْمَةَ ٱلِٱجْتِمَاعِ، وَأُخْضِعَتِ ٱلْأَرْضُ قُدَّامَهُمْ.

And all the congregation of the children of Israel were assembled at Selo, and there they pitched the tabernacle of witness; and the land was subdued by them.

٢ 2 وَبَقِيَ مِنْ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ مِمَّنْ لَمْ يَقْسِمُوا نَصِيبَهُمْ، سَبْعَةُ أَسْبَاطٍ.

And the sons of Israel remained, [even] those who [had] not received their inheritance, seven tribes.

٣ 3 فَقَالَ يَشُوعُ لِبَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ: «حَتَّى مَتَى أَنْتُمْ مُتَرَاخُونَ عَنِ ٱلدُّخُولِ لِٱمْتِلَاكِ ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلَّتِي أَعْطَاكُمْ إِيَّاهَا ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُ آبَائِكُمْ؟

And Joshua said to the sons of Israel, How long will you be slack to inherit the land, which the Lord our God has given you?

٤ 4 هَاتُوا ثَلَاثَةَ رِجَالٍ مِنْ كُلِّ سِبْطٍ فَأُرْسِلَهُمْ فَيَقُومُوا وَيَسِيرُوا فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ وَيَكْتُبُوهَا بِحَسَبِ أَنْصِبَتِهِمْ، ثُمَّ يَأْتُوا إِلَيَّ.

Appoint of yourselves three men of each tribe, and let them rise up and go through the land, and let them describe it before me, as it will be proper to divide it.

٥ 5 وَلْيَقْسِمُوهَا إِلَى سَبْعَةِ أَقْسَامٍ، فَيُقِيمُ يَهُوذَا عَلَى تُخْمِهِ مِنَ ٱلْجَنُوبِ، وَيُقِيمُ بَيْتُ يُوسُفَ عَلَى تُخْمِهِمْ مِنَ ٱلشِّمَالِ.

And they came to him: and he divided to them seven portions, [saying], Juda shall stand to them a border southward, and the sons of Joseph shall stand to them northward.

٦ 6 وَأَنْتُمْ تَكْتُبُونَ ٱلْأَرْضَ سَبْعَةَ أَقْسَامٍ، ثُمَّ تَأْتُونَ إِلَيَّ هُنَا فَأُلْقِي لَكُمْ قُرْعَةً هَهُنَا أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِنَا.

And do you divide the land into seven parts, and bring the description hither to me, and I will give you a lot before the Lord our God.

٧ 7 لِأَنَّهُ لَيْسَ لِلَّاوِيِّينَ قِسْمٌ فِي وَسَطِكُمْ، لِأَنَّ كَهَنُوتَ ٱلرَّبِّ هُوَ نَصِيبُهُمْ. وَجَادُ وَرَأُوبَيْنُ وَنِصْفُ سِبْطِ مَنَسَّى قَدْ أَخَذُوا نَصِيبَهُمْ فِي عَبْرِ ٱلْأُرْدُنِّ نَحْوَ ٱلشُّرُوقِ، ٱلَّذِي أَعْطَاهُمْ إِيَّاهُ مُوسَى عَبْدُ ٱلرَّبِّ».

For the sons of Levi have no part among you; for the priesthood of the Lord [is] his portion; and Gad, and Ruben, and the half tribe of Manasse, have received their inheritance beyond Jordan eastward, which Moses the servant of the Lord gave to them.

٨ 8 فَقَامَ ٱلرِّجَالُ وَذَهَبُوا. وَأَوْصَى يَشُوعُ ٱلذَّاهِبِينَ لِكِتَابَةِ ٱلْأَرْضِ قَائِلًا: «اِذْهَبُوا وَسِيرُوا فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ وَٱكْتُبُوهَا، ثُمَّ ٱرْجِعُوا إِلَيَّ فَأُلْقِي لَكُمْ هُنَا قُرْعَةً أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ فِي شِيلُوهَ».

And the men rose up and went; and Joshua charged the men who went to explore the land, saying, Go and explore the land, and come to me, and I will bring you forth a lot here before the Lord in Selo.

٩ 9 فَسَارَ ٱلرِّجَالُ وَعَبَرُوا فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ وَكَتَبُوهَا حَسَبَ ٱلْمُدُنِ سَبْعَةَ أَقْسَامٍ فِي سِفْرٍ، ثُمَّ جَاءُوا إِلَى يَشُوعَ إِلَى ٱلْمَحَلَّةِ فِي شِيلُوهَ.

And they went, and explored the land: and they viewed it, and described it according to the cities, seven parts in a book, and brought [the book] to Joshua.

١٠ 10 فَأَلْقَى لَهُمْ يَشُوعُ قُرْعَةً فِي شِيلُوهَ أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ، وَهُنَاكَ قَسَمَ يَشُوعُ ٱلْأَرْضَ لِبَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ حَسَبَ فِرَقِهِمْ.

And Joshua cast the lot for them in Selo before the Lord.

١١ 11 وَطَلَعَتْ قُرْعَةُ سِبْطِ بَنِي بَنْيَامِينَ حَسَبَ عَشَائِرِهِمْ، وَخَرَجَ تُخْمُ قُرْعَتِهِمْ بَيْنَ بَنِي يَهُوذَا وَبَنِي يُوسُفَ:

And the lot of the tribe of Benjamin came forth first according to their families: and the borders of their lot came forth between the children of Juda and the children of Joseph.

١٢ 12 وَكَانَ تُخْمُهُمْ مِنْ جِهَةِ ٱلشِّمَالِ مِنَ ٱلْأُرْدُنِّ. وَصَعِدَ ٱلتُّخْمُ إِلَى جَانِبِ أَرِيحَا مِنَ ٱلشِّمَالِ وَصَعِدَ فِي ٱلْجَبَلِ غَرْبًا، وَكَانَتْ مَخَارِجُهُ عْنْدَ بَرِّيَّةِ بَيْتِ آوِنَ.

And their borders were northward: the borders shall go up from Jordan behind Jericho northward, and shall go up to the mountain westward, and the issue of it shall be Baethon of Mabdara.

١٣ 13 وَعَبَرَ ٱلتُّخْمُ مِنْ هُنَاكَ إِلَى لُوزَ، إِلَى جَانِبِ لُوزَ ٱلْجَنُوبِيِّ، هِيَ بَيْتُ إِيلَ، وَنَزَلَ ٱلتُّخْمُ إِلَى عَطَارُوتِ إِدَّارَ عَلَى ٱلْجَبَلِ ٱلَّذِي إِلَى جَنُوبِ بَيْتِ حُورُونَ ٱلسُّفْلَى.

And the borders will go forth thence to Luz, behind Luz, from the south of it; this is Baethel: and the borders shall go down to Maatarob Orech, to the hill country, which is southward of Baethoron the lower.

١٤ 14 وَٱمْتَدَّ ٱلتُّخْمُ وَدَارَ إِلَى جِهَةِ ٱلْغَرْبِ جَنُوبًا مِنَ ٱلْجَبَلِ ٱلَّذِي مُقَابِلَ بَيْتِ حُورُونَ جَنُوبًا. وَكَانَتْ مَخَارِجُهُ عِنْدَ قَرْيَةِ بَعْلٍ، هِيَ قَرْيَةُ يَعَارِيمَ. مَدِينَةٌ لِبَنِي يَهُوذَا. هَذِهِ هِيَ جِهَةُ ٱلْغَرْبِ.

And the borders shall pass through and proceed to the part that looks toward the sea, on the south, from the mountain in front of Baethoron southward, and its termination shall be at Cariath-Baal, this is Cariath-Jarin, a city of the children of Juda; this is the part toward the west.

١٥ 15 وَجِهَةُ ٱلْجَنُوبِ هِيَ أَقْصَى قَرْيَةِ يَعَارِيمَ. وَخَرَجَ ٱلتُّخْمُ غَرْبًا وَخَرَجَ إِلَى مَنْبَعِ مِيَاهِ نَفْتُوحَ.

And the south side on the part of Cariath-Baal; and the borders shall go across to Gasin, to the fountain of the water of Naphtho.

١٦ 16 وَنَزَلَ ٱلتُّخْمُ إِلَى طَرَفِ ٱلْجَبَلِ ٱلَّذِي مُقَابِلَ وَادِي ٱبْنِ هِنُّومَ ٱلَّذِي فِي وَادِي ٱلرَّفَائِيِّينَ شِمَالًا، وَنَزَلَ إِلَى وَادِي هِنُّومَ إِلَى جَانِبِ ٱلْيَبُوسِيِّينَ مِنَ ٱلْجَنُوبِ، وَنَزَلَ إِلَى عَيْنِ رُوجَلَ.

And the borders shall extend down on one side, this is in front of the forest of Sonnam, which is on the side of Emec Raphain northward, and it shall come down to Gaeenna behind Jebusai southward: it shall come down to the fountain of Rogel.

١٧ 17 وَٱمْتَدَّ مِنَ ٱلشِّمَالِ وَخَرَجَ إِلَى عَيْنِ شَمْسٍ، وَخَرَجَ إِلَى جَلِيلُوتَ ٱلَّتِي مُقَابِلَ عَقَبَةِ أَدُمِّيمَ، وَنَزَلَ إِلَى حَجَرِ بُوهَنَ بْنِ رَأُوبَيْنَ.

And [the borders] shall go across to the fountain of Baethsamys:

١٨ 18 وَعَبَرَ إِلَى ٱلْكَتِفِ مُقَابِلَ ٱلْعَرَبَةِ شِمَالًا، وَنَزَلَ إِلَى ٱلْعَرَبَةِ.

and shall proceed to Galiloth, which is in front by the going up of Aethamin; and they shall come down to the stone of Baeon of the sons of Ruben; and shall pass over behind Baetharaba northward, and shall go down to the borders behind the sea northward.

١٩ 19 وَعَبَرَ ٱلتُّخْمُ إِلَى جَانِبِ بَيْتِ حُجْلَةَ شِمَالًا. وَكَانَتْ مَخَارِجُ ٱلتُّخْمِ عِنْدَ لِسَانِ بَحْرِ ٱلْمِلْحِ شِمَالًا إِلَى طَرَفِ ٱلْأُرْدُنِّ جَنُوبًا. هَذَا هُوَ تُخْمُ ٱلْجَنُوبِ.

And the termination of the borders shall be at the creek of the salt sea northward to the side of Jordan southward: these are their southern borders.

٢٠ 20 وَٱلْأُرْدُنُّ يَتْخُمُهُ مِنْ جِهَةِ ٱلشَّرْقِ. فَهَذَا هُوَ نَصِيبُ بَنِي بَنْيَامِينَ مَعَ تُخُومِهِ مُسْتَدِيرًا حَسَبَ عَشَائِرِهِمْ.

And Jordan shall be their boundary on the east: this [is] the inheritance of the children of Benjamin, these [are] their borders round about according to their families.

٢١ 21 وَكَانَتْ مُدُنُ سِبْطِ بَنِي بَنْيَامِينَ حَسَبَ عَشَائِرِهِمْ: أَرِيحَا وَبَيْتَ حُجْلَةَ وَوَادِي قَصِيصَ،

And the cities of the children of Benjamin according to their families [were] Jericho, and Bethagaeo, and the Amecasis,

٢٢ 22 وَبَيْتَ ٱلْعَرَبَةِ وَصَمَارَايِمَ وَبَيْتَ إِيلَ،

٢٨ 28 وَصَيْلَعَ وَآلفَ وَٱلْيَبُوسِيَّ، هِيَ أُورُشَلِيمُ، وَجِبْعَةَ وَقِرْيَةَ. أَرْبَعَ عَشَرَةَ مَدِينَةً مَعَ ضِيَاعِهَا. هَذَا هُوَ نَصِيبُ بَنِي بَنْيَامِينَ حَسَبَ عَشَائِرِهِمْ.
