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.

Now Joshua was very old when Yahweh said to him, “You are very old, but there is still very much land to capture.

2 Dette er Landet, som er blevet tilovers: Alle Filisternes Landskaber og alle Gesuriter:

This is the land that still remains: All the regions of the Philistines, and all those of the Geshurites,

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;

from Shihor, which is east of Egypt, and northward to the border of Ekron, which is considered property of the Canaanites; the five rulers of the Philistines, those of Gaza, Ashdod, Ashkelon, Gath, and Ekron—the territory of the Avvites.

4 mod Sønden alt Kananiternes Land og Meara, som hører Zidonierne til, indtil Afek, indtil Amoriternes Landemærke;

In the south (the territory of the Avvites); all the lands of the Canaanites, from Arah that belongs to the Sidonians, as far as Aphek which is on the border of the Amorites;

5 og Gibliternes Land og det hele Libanon mod Solens Opgang fra Baal-Gad neden for Hermons Bjerg, indtil man kommer til Hamath;

the land of the Gebalites, all of Lebanon toward the east, from Baal Gad below Mount Hermon to 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.

Also, all the inhabitants of the hill country from Lebanon as far as Misrephoth Maim, including all the people of Sidon. I will drive them out before the army of Israel. Be sure to assign the land to Israel as an inheritance, as I commanded you.

7 Saa del nu dette Land til Arv iblandt de ni Stammer og den halve Del af Manasse Stamme;

Divide this land as an inheritance to the nine tribes and to the half tribe of Manasseh.”

With the other half of the tribe of Manasseh, the Reubenites and the Gadites had received their inheritance that Moses gave them on the east side of the Jordan,

all the kingdom of Og in Bashan, who reigned in Ashtaroth and Edrei—these are what was left of the remnant of the Rephaim—Moses struck them and drove them out.

13 men Israels Børn fordreve ikke Gesuriterne og Maakathiterne; men Gesur og Maakath boede iblandt Israel indtil denne Dag.

But the people of Israel did not drive out the Geshurites or the Maacathites. Instead, Geshur and Maacath live among Israel to this day.
