Joshua 18
1 Tunvang gamsung chu Israelte khut noiya uma ahitai, Israel mite chu abonchauvin Shiloh a akikhomun hichea chun kikhopna ponbuhkhat atungdohn tauve.
And the whole congregation of the children of Israel assembled together at Shiloh, and set up there the tabernacle of the congregation. And the land was subdued before them.
2 Ahinlah hichea chun phung sagi hochu alodiu chennagam kipeloulai aum nalaijin ahi.
And there remained among the children of Israel, that had not yet received their inheritance, seven tribes.
3 Hichun Joshua’n amahochu adongin, “Napu napateu Pakai Pathennin nalodiuva napeh u gam nachandiu chu itih changei nanga diuham?” ati.
And Joshua said unto the children of Israel, How long will ye show yourselves slack to go to take possession of the land, which the Lord the God of your fathers hath given to you!
4 “Phungkhat a mithum cheh hinlhengdoh unlang keiman amaho chu gam vetoh dingin gahsol intin, amaho cheuvin tin amaho cheh in alodiu gamchu hinvetoh untin keikoma thu ahinlhut kitdiu ahi.
Furnish for yourselves three men for each tribe; and I will send them out, and they shall arise, and walk through the land, and describe it according to their inheritance, and come again to me.
5 Judahten achannu lhanglam gamleh Joseph in achennao sahlang gam panglouva amahon agamvet uchu hop sagi’a ahopdiu ahi.
And they shall divide it into seven parts: Judah shall remain on his boundary at the south, and the house of Joseph shall remain on their boundary at the north.
6 Hitia chu amahon agamvet u ajihlutnao chu keikoma ahin choilutdiu, aphungdung jui'a achondiu akipehtheina dinga keiman Pakai Pathen angsung’a vang theng kasanding ahi.
But you shall make a description of the land in seven parts, and bring it hither to me; and I will cast the lot for you here, before the Lord our God.
7 “Levite chun gamchan aneiloudiu ahi. Amaho chanding chu Pathen thempu kinbol chu hiding ahi. Chuleh Gad, Reuben leh Manasseh phung kehkhat hochu gam chanbeloudiu ahitai. Ajeh chu Pakai lhacha Mose’n amahochu Jordan vadung solam gamkaija anapehsa ahitan amahon gamchan chu akimusao ahitai,” ati.
For to the Levites there is no portion among you; for the priesthood of the Lord is their inheritance; and Gad, and Reuben, and half the tribe of Menasseh have already received their inheritance beyond the Jordan, at the east, which Moses the servant of the Lord gave to them.
8 Amaho gam gakholtoh dingleh gajihdoh dinga akipatdoh uchun Joshua’n hitin thupeh ananeijin ahi, “Cheuvinlang agamchu gakholtoh unlang kichihtah in hinjihdoh un. Chujouteng kakomma hungun, huting keiman Shiloh munna Pakai angsung’a vangsan na kaneiding chuteng aphung dungjui a agam chu kahoppehdiu nahiuve” ati.
And the men arose, and went away; and Joshua charged those that went to describe the land, saying, Go and walk through the land, and describe it, and return again to me; and here will I cast the lot for you before the Lord, in Shiloh.
9 Miho chun gampumpi chu agakholtoh dungjuijin ahin jihdoh un khopi dingleh khoneoding agongtoh un hopsagi in ahommun lekhabua ajihkit un Shiloh ngahmunna Joshua komma ahinpo lutnun ahi.
And the men went and passed through the land, and described it according to the cities in seven parts in a book; and they came again to Joshua to the camp at Shiloh.
10 Chuleh Shiloh achun Joshua'n Pakai angsung’a vangsan’na aneiyin hoilai munchu koi phungpen chang dingham ti avetan ahi.
And Joshua cast the lot for them in Shiloh before the Lord; and Joshua divided there the land unto the children of Israel according to their divisions.
11 Vang kivetna-a chan masa chu Benjamin phunga alhungin ahi. Hiche chan hi Judah le Joseph gamchan kikah’a um gam chu ahi.
And the lot of the tribe of the children of Benjamin came up according to their families; and the boundary of their lot came forth between the children of Judah and the children of Joseph.

And their boundary was on the north side [starting] from the Jordan; and the boundary went up to the side of Jericho on the north, and went up through the mountains westward; and its terminations were at the wilderness of Beth-aven.

And the boundary went down to the end of the mountain that is before the valley of the son of Hinnom, and which is in the valley of Rephaim at the north, and descended to the valley of Hinnom, to the side of the Jebusi on the south, and descended to 'Enrogel,

And extended northwardly, and went forth to 'En-shemesh, and went forth toward Geliloth, which is opposite to the ascent of Adummim, and descended to Eben-bohan the son of Reuben,
