“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 khorhi dongah khothoeng saa lamloh khotlak baengki due pakhat ah Asher ham saeh.
South of their land will be the territory [for the tribe] of Asher.

South of their land will be the territory [for the tribe] of Manasseh.
5 Manasseh khorhi phoeiah khothoeng baengki lamloh khotlak baengki hil te pakhat ah Ephraim ham saeh.
South of their land will be the territory [for the tribe] of Ephraim.
6 Ephraim khorhi phoeiah khothoeng baengki lamloh khotlak baengki hil te pakhat ah Reuben ham saeh.

South of their land will be the territory [for the tribe] of Judah.
8 Judah khorhi phoeiah khothoeng baengki lamloh khotlak baengki hil khosaa om saeh. Te te a daang neh a yun thawng kul thawng nga tloeng uh. Khothoeng baengki lamloh khotlak baengki duela khoyo pakhat la om saeh lamtah a khui ah rhokso om saeh.
South of their land will be an area set apart for special use. The temple will be in the center of that area.
9 BOEIPA taengah khosaa te a yun thawng kul thawng nga neh a daang thawng rha na tloeng ni.
It must be (8.3 miles/13.3 km.) long and (6.7 miles/10.6 km.) wide.
10 He rhoek he khosoih rhoek ham khosaa hmuencim la om ni. Tlangpuei ah thawng kul thawng nga, khotlak ah a daang te thawng rha saeh lamtah khothoeng ah a daang thawng rha saeh, tuithim ah a yun thawng kul thawng nga neh a khui ah BOEIPA kah rhokso om saeh.
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 Zadok koca lamkah mah khosoih la hoep saeh. Te rhoek long tah ka kueknah a ngaithuen uh tih Levi kah khohmang bangla Israel ca loh kho a hmang akhaw te rhoek loh kho a hmang uh moenih.
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 Te dongah Levi khorhi taengkah a cim la aka cim koek khohmuen kah khosaa te amih ham rhungkung buh la om saeh.
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 Levi kah khaw khosoih khorhi voeivang ah thawng kul thawng nga te a yun vetih a daang te thawng rha lo ni. A yun boeih te thawng kul thawng nga vetih a daang te thawng rha lo ni.
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 Te te yoi uh boel saeh lamtah tho boel saeh. Khohmuen tanglue he BOEIPA ham a cim dongah khum rhoe khum boel saeh.
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 A daang thawng kul thawng nga hmai la thawng nga aka hoei te khopuei ham neh tolrhum ham khaw khocaak ham khaw hmangrhong la om saeh. Tedae a laklo a laklo ah kho om saeh.
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 A cungnueh te tlangpuei saa dongah thawng li ya nga neh tuithim saa thawng li ya nga panga, khothoeng saa dongah thawng li ya nga neh khotlak saa dongah ah thawng li ya nga lo saeh.
The city will be square, (1.5 miles/2.4 km.) on each side.
17 Khopuei kah khocaak ham te tlangpuei ah yahnih sawmnga, tuithim ah yahnih sawmnga, khothoeng ah yahnih sawmnga, khotlak ah yahnih sawmnga lo saeh.
Around the city there will be an area for farming, that will be (150 yards/135 meters) in each direction.
18 Hmuencim khosa rhi kah a yun te khothoeng ah thawng rha, khotlak ah thawng rha coih pueng tih hmuencim khosaa voeivang ah om saeh. A vueithaih tah khopuei ah aka thotat kah a caak ham a vueithaih la om saeh.
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 Khopuei kah aka thotat Israel koca boeih loh te te tawn saeh.
[Some of] those who come from the various Israeli tribes to work in the city may also work on the farmland.
20 Khosaa boeih te thawng kul thawng nga, thawng kul thawng nga ah pali la hmoel lamtah khopuei kah khohut neh hmuencim khosaa la om saeh.
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 Hmuencim khosaa neh khopuei kah khohut te heben ah khaw keben ah khaw khoboei ham sueng pah saeh. Khosaa te a hmai thawng kul thawng nga lamloh khothoeng khorhi hil pha saeh. Te phoeiah tuipuei hmai lamloh khotlak rhi thawng kul thawng nga hil voeivang phai te khoboei kah khoyo la om saeh. Te dongah khosaa hmuencim neh a im kah rhokso tah a laklung, a laklung ah om saeh.
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 Te dongah Levi khohut lamkah neh khopuei khohut lamkah a laklung te khoboei ham om pah saeh. Judah khorhi laklo neh Benjamin khorhi laklo te khoboei ham om pah saeh.
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 Te vaengah khothoeng baengki lamloh khotlak baengki hil te Benjamin koca kah hlangrhuel ham pakhat la om saeh.
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 khorhi phoeiah khothoeng baengki lamloh khotlak baengki hil te Simeon ham pakhat om saeh.
South of their land will be the territory for [the tribe of] Simeon.

26 Issakhar khorhi phoeikah khothoeng baengki lamloh khotlak baengki hil te Zebulun ham pakhat om saeh.
South of their land will be the territory for [the tribe of] Zebulun.
27 Zebulun khorhi phoeikah khothoeng baengki lamloh khotlak baengki hil te Gad ham pakhat om saeh.
South of their land will be the territory for [the tribe of] Gad.
28 Gad khorhi phoeikah tuithim khorhi te tah tuithim la yong. Te phoeiah khorhi te Kadesh soklong kah Meribah tui taeng Tamar lamloh tuipuei tanglue la pawk.
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 Khohmuen he he Israel koca ham neh amamih boelnah bangla rho la naan pah. He tah ka Boeipa Yahovah kah olphong ni.
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 Khopuei a bawtnah rhoek he tlangpuei saa ah cungnueh thawng li ya nga lo saeh.
These will be the exits from the city: On the north side, which will be (1.5 miles/2.4 km.) long,
31 Khopuei vongka rhoek te Israel koca ming la om vetih tlangpuei kah vongka pathum dongah Reuben vongka pakhat, Judah vongka pakhat, Levi vongka pakhat saeh.
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 Khothoeng saa dongkah te thawng li ya nga lo tih, vongka pathum dongah Joseph vongka pakhat, Benjamin vongka pakhat, Daan vongka pakhat saeh.
On the east side, [also] (1.5 miles/2.4 km.) long, will be gates named for Joseph, Benjamin, and Dan.
33 Tuithim saa khaw cungnueh ah thawng li ya nga lo. Vongka pathum dongkah te Simeon vongka pakhat, Issakhar vongka pakhat, Zebulun vongka pakhat saeh.
On the south side, [also] (1.5 miles/2.4 km.) long, will be gates named for Simeon, Issachar, and Zebulun.

35 A kaepvai te thawng hlai rhet lo tih BOEIPA kah khohnin lamlong tah khopuei ming khaw pahoi om saeh.
[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’.’
