1 Tarik ah kaom acaeng ahminnawk loe, aluek bang hoiah Hethlon caehhaih loklam hoi Hammath karoek to Hazar-enan vangpui hoi Damaska ramri aluek bang Hammath vangpui khoek to om tih; ni angzae hoi niduem khoek to Dan ih taham ah om tih.
“Here is a list of the tribes of Israel [and the territory that each tribe is to receive]: [The tribe of] Dan will be allotted land at the northern boundary [of Israel]: It will extend east from the Mediterranean Sea east to Hethlon [city], then from there to Hamath Pass, and on to [the town of] Hazar-Enan south of Damascus, between Damascus and Hamath. The tribe of Dan will receive land on the northern border [of Israel] from the eastern end [of the country] west to the [Mediterranean] Sea.
2 Dan ramri hoi kamtong, ni angzae hoi niduem khoek to Asher taham ah om tih.
South of their land will be the territory [for the tribe] of Asher.
3 Asher ramri hoi kamtong, ni angzae hoi niduem khoek to Naphtali taham ah om tih.
South of their land will be the territory [for the tribe] of Naphtali.
4 Asher ramri hoi kamtong, ni angzae hoi niduem khoek to Manasseh taham ah om tih.
South of their land will be the territory [for the tribe] of Manasseh.
5 Manasseh ramri hoi kamtong, ni angzae hoi niduem khoek to Ephraim taham ah om tih.
South of their land will be the territory [for the tribe] of Ephraim.
6 Ephraim ramri hoi kamtong, ni angzae hoi niduem khoek to Reuben taham ah om tih.
South of their land will be the territory [for the tribe] of Reuben.
7 Reuben ramri hoi kamtong, ni angzae hoi niduem khoek to Judah taham ah om tih.
South of their land will be the territory [for the tribe] of Judah.
8 Judah ramri hoi kamtong, ni angzae hoi niduem khoek to na paek o han ih long ah om tih, to ahmuen loe cung sing hnet sang pangato kawk ueloe, ni angyae hoi niduem khoek to, acaeng maeto mah toep ih ahmuen hoiah angvan tih; a um ah hmuenciim to om tih.
South of their land will be an area set apart for special use. The temple will be in the center of that area.
9 Angraeng khaeah tangqum ah na paek o han ih prae loe, dong sang pumphae pangato sawk ueloe, dong sang hato kawk tih.
It must be (8.3 miles/13.3 km.) long and (6.7 miles/10.6 km.) wide.
10 Kaciim tangqum loe qaimanawk hanah om tih; aluek bang ah dong sang pumphae pangato sawk ueloe, niduem bang ah dong sang hato kawk tih, ni angyae bang ah dong sang hato kawk ueloe, aloih bang ah dong sang pumphae pangato sawk tih; a um ah Angraeng ih hmuenciim to om tih.
For the priests, there must be a strip of land (8.3 miles/13.3 km.) long and (3.3 miles/5.3 km.) wide. The temple will be in the center of that area.
11 Hae loe Israel kaminawk loklam amkhraeng o moe, Levi kaminawk loklam amkhraeng o naah, loklam amkhraeng ai ah kai ih tok kasah poe, kaciim Zadok ih capa, qaimanawk hanah om tih.
That area is for the priests who are descendants of Zadok. They are ones who served me faithfully and did not turn away from me, like most of the descendants of Levi and the other Israeli people did.
12 Levi kaminawk ohhaih ahmuen taengah tangqum ah paek ih ahmuen loe qaimanawk han kaciim koek ahmuen ah om tih.
When the land is distributed, that area must be given to the priests; it is land that is very sacred. It will be next to the land that will be given to the other descendants of Levi.
13 Qaimanawk ramri taengah kaom Levi kaminawk ohhaih ahmuen loe dong sang pumphae pangato sawk ueloe, dong sang hato kawk tih; sangqum boih ah dong sang pumphae pangato sawk ueloe, dong sang hato kawk tih.
The land that will be allotted to the [other] descendants of Levi will be the same size as the land allotted to the priests. So together, those two portions of land will be (8.3 miles/13.3 km.) long and (6.6 miles/10.6 km.) wide.
14 To long ahmuen loe Angraeng han ciim pongah, Levinawk mah zaw o mak ai, anglai doeh anglai o mak ai, hae kahoih koek long ahmuen loe minawk ban ah paek o mak ai.
None of this special land will ever be permitted to be sold or traded or used by other people, because it belongs to me, Yahweh. It is set apart for me.
15 To pacoengah dong sang pumphae pangato taeng ih kanghmat dong sang pangato loe kami ohhaih, vangpui sakhaih hoi rangpui mah patoh ih ahmuen ah om tih; vangpui loe a um ah om tih.
The rest [of that sacred area, a strip of land] (8.3 miles/13.3 km.) long and (1.7 miles/2.65 km.) wide will be allotted for other people to use. It will be land where they will be permitted to build homes and have pasturelands. There will be a city at the center.
16 Tahhaih loe hae tiah om tih; aluek bang ah dong sang pali, cumvai pangato om tih, aloih bang ah dong sang pali, cumvai pangato om tih, ni angzae bang ah dong sang pali, cumvai pangato om ueloe, niduem bang ah doeh dong sang pali, cumvai pangato om tih.
The city will be square, (1.5 miles/2.4 km.) on each side.
17 Vangpui han ih ahmuen loe aluek bang ah dong cumvai hnet, qui pangato, aloih bang ah dong cumvai hnet, qui pangato, ni angzae bang ah dong cumvai hnet, qui pangato, niduem bang ah dong cumvai hnet, qui pangato om tih.
Around the city there will be an area for farming, that will be (150 yards/135 meters) in each direction.
18 Kanghmat ahmuen, tangqum ah paek ih hmuenciim taeng ih ahmuen kasawk hoi kangbet to ahmuen loe, ni angzae bang ah dong sang hato om ueloe, niduem bang ah dong sang hato om tih; to ahmuen hoiah tacawt thingthai qumponawk loe vangpui thungah toksah kaminawk ih lawk hmuen ah om tih.
Outside the city, to the east and to the west, there will be a farming area. It will extend (3 miles/4.8 km.) to the east and (3 miles/4.8 km.) to the west. [Men who work there] will produce food for the people who work in the city.
19 Vangpui thung toksah kaminawk loe, Israel acaeng thung ih kami ah om o tih.
[Some of] those who come from the various Israeli tribes to work in the city may also work on the farmland.
20 To ih tangqum ah paek ih long ahmuen loe takii palito kaom ahnuk ahma kangvan, dong sang pumphae pangato sawk ueloe, dong sang pumphae pangato kawk tih; hmuenciim loe vangpui taham ah kaom long hoi nawnto pahoe oh.
That entire special area, including the sacred lands and the city, will be a square that is (8.3 miles/13.3 km.) on each side.
21 Tangqum ah paek ih hmuenciim hoi vangpui taham long ahmuen hae bang hoi ho bang khoek to kanghmat long ahmuen loe ukkung angraeng ih ahmuen ah oh; to ahmuen loe ni angzae bang ah hmuenciim hoi ni angzae bang ih ramri khoek to, dong sang pumphae pangato om ueloe, niduem bang ah dong sang pumphae pangato om tih; Israel acaeng kaminawk ih taham ah kaom long hmuen ataeng boih loe ukkung angraeng ih ahmuen ah om tih; tangqum ah paek ih hmuenciim hoi tempul hmuenciim loe a um ah om tih.
The areas to the east and to the west of the sacred area and the city will belong to the king. One area will extend east to the eastern boundary of Israel and the other will extend west to the Mediterranean Sea. The sacred area in which the temple is located will be in the middle.
22 To pongah Levi kaminawk ih long hmuen hoi vangpui taham ah kaom long ahmuen salakah, ukkung angraeng ih long ahmuen to om tih; Judah ih ramri hoi Benjamin ih ramri salakah loe ukkung angraeng ih ahmuen ah om tih.
The area that belongs to the king will be between the land [of the tribe] of [to the north] and the land [of the tribe] of Benjamin [to the south].
23 Kanghmat acaengnawk hanah loe ni angzae hoi niduem khoek to Benjamin taham ah om tih.
South of that special area, each of the other tribes must be allotted one portion of land that extends from the eastern [boundary of Israel] west [to the Mediterranean Sea]. [Beginning at the north] will be land for [the tribe of] Benjamin.
24 Benjamin ramri hoi kamtong, ni angzae hoi niduem khoek to Simeon taham ah om tih.
South of their land will be the territory for [the tribe of] Simeon.
25 Simeon ramri hoi kamtong, ni angzae hoi niduem khoek to Issakar taham ah om tih.
South of their land will be the territory for [the tribe of] Issachar.
26 Issakar ramri hoi kamtong, ni angzae hoi niduem khoek to Zebulun taham ah om tih.
South of their land will be the territory for [the tribe of] Zebulun.
27 Zebulun ramri hoi kamtong, ni angzae hoi niduem khoek to Gad taham ah om tih.
South of their land will be the territory for [the tribe of] Gad.
28 Gad ih ramri loe aloih bang ah Tamar hoi Kadesh tui ohhaih ahmuen, to ahmuen hoi tuipui kalen khoek to caeh tathuk tih.
The southern boundary of [the tribe of] Gad will extend south from Tamar to the springs at Meribah-Kadesh, and from there [to the west] along the dry riverbed at the border of Egypt to the Mediterranean Sea.
29 Hae long ahmuen hae Israel acaengnawk khaeah, taham khethaih phoisa vah hoiah qawk ah pazet paeh, hae ahmuennawk loe nihcae mah hak koi taham ah oh, tiah Angraeng Sithaw mah thuih.
That is the land that you must allot to the tribes of Israel, to belong to them permanently. [That is what I], Yahweh the Lord, declare.”
30 Vangpui hoi tacawthaih khongkhanawk loe aluek bang ah dong sang pali, cumvai pangato sawk.
These will be the exits from the city: On the north side, which will be (1.5 miles/2.4 km.) long,
31 Khongkha ahminnawk loe Israel acaengnawk ih ahmin to palawk ah; aluek bang ah Reuben khongkha, Judah khongkha, Levi khongkha, tiah khongkha thumto om tih.
there must be three gates; each one will have the name of one of the tribes of Israel. The first one will be named for Reuben, the next for Judah, the next for Levi.
32 Ni angzae bang ah loe dong sang pali, cumvai pangato kasawk, Joseph khongkha, Benjamin khongkha hoi Dan khongkha, tiah khongkha thumto om tih.
On the east side, [also] (1.5 miles/2.4 km.) long, will be gates named for Joseph, Benjamin, and Dan.
33 Aloih bang ah loe dong sang pali, cumvai pangato kasawk, Simeon khongkha, Issakar khongkha hoi Zebulun khongkha, tiah khongkha thumto om tih.
On the south side, [also] (1.5 miles/2.4 km.) long, will be gates named for Simeon, Issachar, and Zebulun.
34 Niduem bang ah loe dong sang pali, cumvai pangato kasawk, Gad khongkha, Asher khongkha, Naptali khongkha, tiah khongkha thumto om tih.
On the west side, [also] (1.5 miles/2.4 km.) long, will be gates named for Gad, Asher, and Naphtali.
35 Sangqum boih ah kasawk dong sang hathlai tazetto oh; sakhaih ni hoi kamtong to vangpui to JEHOVAH-SHAMMAH, tiah ahmin om tih.
[So] the distance around the city will thus be (6 miles/9.6 km.). And from that time on, the name of the city will be ‘Yahweh Is There’.’
