And all the congregation of the sons of Israel is assembled [at] Shiloh, and they cause the Tent of Meeting to dwell there, and the land has been subdued before them.
2 Tedae Israel ca rhoek khuikah koca parhih loh amamih kah rho a dang mueh la om pueng.
And there are seven tribes left among the sons of Israel who have not shared their inheritance,
3 Te dongah Israel ca rhoek taengah Joshua loh, “Na pa rhoek kah BOEIPA Pathen loh nangmih taengah m'paek khohmuen te dang ham neh pang ham la mevaeng due lae na tiing uh eh.
and Joshua says to the sons of Israel, “Until when are you remiss to go in to possess the land which He, YHWH, God of your fathers, has given to you?

Give three men from you for [each] tribe, and I send them, and they rise and go up and down through the land, and describe it according to their inheritance, and come to me,

and they have divided it into seven portions—Judah stays by its border on the south, and the house of Joseph stays by their border on the north—

for there is no portion for the Levites in your midst, for the priesthood of YHWH [is] their inheritance, and Gad, and Reuben, and half of the tribe of Manasseh received their inheritance beyond the Jordan eastward, which Moses, servant of YHWH, gave to them.”
8 Te dongah hlang rhoek te thoo uh tih a caeh uh vaengah khohmuen kawng daek ham aka cet rhoek te Joshua loh a uen tih, “Cet uh lamtah khohmuen te hip uh laeh. A kawng te daek uh lamtah kai taengla ham mael puei uh. Te vaengah Shiloh kah BOEIPA mikhmuh ah he hmulung te nangmih ham ka yuek eh?,” a ti nah.
And the men rise and go; and Joshua commands those who are going to describe the land, saying, “Go, and walk up and down through the land, and describe it, and return to me, and here I cast a lot for you before YHWH in Shiloh.”
9 Te vaengah hlang rhoek te cet uh tih kho takuem la pawk uh. Khopuei rhoek te cabu dongah khoyo parhih la a daek uh tih Shiloh rhaehhmuen kah Joshua taengla mael uh.
