Josua 13
1 Og Josva var gammel, han var kommen til Aars, og Herren sagde til ham: Du er gammel, du er kommen til Aars, og der er saare meget af Landet blevet tilovers at indtage.
When Joshua was very old, Yahweh said to him, “Joshua, you are now an old man, but there is still a lot of land [for your army] to capture.
2 Dette er Landet, som er blevet tilovers: Alle Filisternes Landskaber og alle Gesuriter:
Here is a list of the land that remains: The Geshur region and all the area where the Philistia people-group live;
3 Fra Sihon, som flyder foran Ægypten og indtil Ekrons Landemærke mod Norden, som regnes til Kananiterne; de fem Filisters Fyrster: Den Gaziter og den Asdoditer, den Askloniter, den Gathiter og den Ekroniter, og Aviterne;
the area where the Canaan people-group live, from the Shihor River [in the south] at the [eastern] border of Egypt, to Ekron [city] in the north; the rulers of the five [cities] of Gaza, Ashdod, Ashkelon, Gath, and Ekron; the area where the Avva people-group live,
4 mod Sønden alt Kananiternes Land og Meara, som hører Zidonierne til, indtil Afek, indtil Amoriternes Landemærke;
which is south of the area where the Canaan people-group live;
5 og Gibliternes Land og det hele Libanon mod Solens Opgang fra Baal-Gad neden for Hermons Bjerg, indtil man kommer til Hamath;
the area where the Gebal people-group live; and all the Lebanon area east of Baal-Gad [city] at the bottom of Hermon Mountain, as far as Lebo-Hamath.
6 alle de, som bo paa Bjergene, fra Libanon indtil de hede Kilder, alle Zidonier; jeg vil fordrive dem fra Israels Børns Ansigt; lad det ikkun falde Israel til Arv, som jeg befalede dig.
All the people of the Sidon people-group live in the hilly area from Lebanon to Misrephoth-Maim, but I will force them to leave that area before you Israelis arrive there. Be sure to give that area to the Israeli people when you divide the land among them, like I told you to do.
7 Saa del nu dette Land til Arv iblandt de ni Stammer og den halve Del af Manasse Stamme;
Divide all that land among the nine Israeli tribes and half of the tribe of Manasseh, [the tribes that do not have land on the east side of the Jordan River].”
8 med hvem Rubeniterne og Gaditerne have taget deres Arv, som Mose gav dem paa hin Side Jordanen mod Østen, ligesom Mose, Herrens Tjener, gav dem den,
Half of the tribe of Manasseh and the tribes of Reuben and Gad had already been told what land they would receive, because Moses, the man who served Yahweh [well], had already assigned to them the land on the east side of the Jordan [River].
9 fra Aroer, som ligger ved Bredden af Arnons Bæk, og fra den Stad, som er midt i Dalen, og alt det jævne Land ved Medba indtil Dibon,
Their land extended from Aroer [town] at the Arnon River gorge to the town in the middle of the gorge. It included the whole plain from Medeba [town south] to Dibon [town].
10 og alle Stæder, som tilhørte Sihon, Amoriternes Konge, som regerede i Hesbon, indtil Ammons Børns Landemærke;
All the towns ruled by King Sihon were in that area. The land extended to where the Ammon people-group lived.
11 og Gilead og Gesuriternes og Maakathiternes Landemærke og hele Hermons Bjerg og al Basan indtil Salka,
The Gilead area was also there, and the regions where the people of the Geshur and Maacah people-groups lived, and all of Hermon Mountain and all the Bashan region [south] to Salecah.
12 hele Ogs Rige i Basan, han som regerede i Astharoth og i Edrei og var een af de overblevne Kæmper. Og Mose slog dem og fordrev dem;
All the land ruled by Og, the king who ruled the Bashan [region], was in that land. Og was one of the last descendants of Repha; previously he had ruled in Ashtaroth and Edrei [cities], but [the armies of] Moses had defeated their armies and had taken their land from them.
13 men Israels Børn fordreve ikke Gesuriterne og Maakathiterne; men Gesur og Maakath boede iblandt Israel indtil denne Dag.
But the Israelis did not force the people of the Geshur and Maacah [people-groups] to leave their land, so they still live among the Israeli people.
14 Alene Levi Stamme gav han ikke Arv; Herrens, Israels Guds Ildofre, de ere hans Arv, som han havde sagt til dem.
The tribe of Levi was the only tribe that did not get any land. Instead, just like Yahweh promised, they continued to receive [food from] the sacrifices that were given to Yahweh, the God whom the Israelis [worship], the sacrifices that were burned [on the sacred altar].
15 Men Mose havde givet Rubens Børns Stamme Arv efter deres Slægter;

That land included all the towns on the plain and all the area that King Sihon had previously ruled. But [the army of] Moses had defeated him and the rulers of the Midian people-group: Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur, and Reba. The armies of all those rulers fought battles along with the army of Sihon, and they lived in that country.

Moses had allotted to those tribes the land that was on the plain of the Moab [region], on the east side of the Jordan [River], across from Jericho.
