Joshua 13

1 Ka Joshua noseti kendo hike koro noniangʼ, Jehova Nyasaye nowachone niya, “Iseti ahinya, to pod nitie kuonde madongo mar pinyni monego kaw.

Now Joshua was old and well advanced in years. The LORD said to him, “You are old and advanced in years, and there remains yet very much land to be possessed.

2 “Kuonde modongʼ mapok okaw e magi: “gwenge duto mag jo-Filistia gi jo-Geshur,

“This is the land that still remains: all the regions of the Philistines, and all the Geshurites;

3 kochakore e Aora Shihor man yo wuok chiengʼ mar Misri nyaka e tongʼ Ekron man yo nyandwat, magi duto nokwan kaka jo-Kanaan. Kuonde mane jotelo abich mag Filistia orito ne gin, Gaza, Ashdod, Ashkelon, Gath kod Ekron; magi ne gin mag jo-Avi

from the Shihor, which is before Egypt, even to the border of Ekron northward, which is counted as Canaanite; the five lords of the Philistines; the Gazites, and the Ashdodites, the Ashkelonites, the Gittites, and the Ekronites; also the Avvim,

4 yo milambo; pinje duto mag jo-Kanaan, kochakore Meara mar jo-Sidonia nyaka ochopo Afek, gi tongʼ mar jo-Amor;

on the south; all the land of the Canaanites, and Mearah that belongs to the Sidonians, to Aphek, to the border of the Amorites;

5 e gwenge mag Gebal; to gi Lebanon duto ma yo wuok chiengʼ, kaachiel gi Baal Gad manie tiend Got Hermon nyaka Lebo Hamath.

and the land of the Gebalites, and all Lebanon, towards the sunrise, from Baal Gad under Mount Hermon to the entrance of Hamath;

6 “Ne jogo duto modak kuonde motimo gode chakre Lebanon nyaka Misrefoth Maim, tiende ni, jo-Sidonia duto, an awuon abiro riembogi mondo giwene jo-Israel. Beduru gi adieri mar pogo ni jo-Israel pinyni kaka girkeni margi, mana kaka asechikoi.

all the inhabitants of the hill country from Lebanon to Misrephoth Maim, even all the Sidonians. I will drive them out from before the children of Israel. Just allocate it to Israel for an inheritance, as I have commanded you.

7 Pogeuru kaka girkeni ni dhoudi ochikogo, kaachiel gi nus joka Manase.”

Now therefore divide this land for an inheritance to the nine tribes and the half-tribe of Manasseh.”

8 Nus modongʼ mar joka Manase, gi jo-Reuben kod jo-Gad noseyudo girkeni mag-gi mane Musa jatich Jehova Nyasaye osemiyogi yo wuok chiengʼ mar aora Jordan.

With him the Reubenites and the Gadites received their inheritance, which Moses gave them, beyond the Jordan eastward, even as Moses the servant of the LORD gave them:

9 Nochakore Aroer koluwore gi holo mar Arnon, kendo koluwore gi dalano manie dier holono, mi oriwo gode duto mag Medeba mochopo nyaka Dibon,

from Aroer, that is on the edge of the valley of the Arnon, and the city that is in the middle of the valley, and all the plain of Medeba to Dibon;

10 bende nyaka mier matindo mar Sihon ruodh jo-Amor, mane jatelo Heshbon, mantiere e tongʼ mar jo-Amon.

and all the cities of Sihon king of the Amorites, who reigned in Heshbon, to the border of the children of Ammon;

11 Noriwo nyaka Gilead, gwenge jo-Geshur kod jo-Maaka, Got Hermon duto, kod Bashan duto, mochopo nyaka Saleka,

and Gilead, and the border of the Geshurites and Maacathites, and all Mount Hermon, and all Bashan to Salecah;

12 tiende ni, pinyruodh Og duto man Bashan, ma bende nosebedo gi loch e Ashtaroth gi Edrei. (To bende nobedo achiel kuom jo-Refai mogik.) Musa noloyogi mi okawo pinygi.

all the kingdom of Og in Bashan, who reigned in Ashtaroth and in Edrei (who was left of the remnant of the Rephaim); for Moses attacked these, and drove them out.

13 Makmana jo-Israel ne ok oriembo jo-Geshur gi jo-Maaka, omiyo pod gidak e dier jo-Israel nyaka chil kawuono.

Nevertheless the children of Israel didn’t drive out the Geshurites, nor the Maacathites: but Geshur and Maacath live within Israel to this day.

14 To dhood Lawi ne ok omiyo girkeni, nikech chiwo mane ochiw kokalo e mach ne Jehova Nyasaye, ma Nyasach Israel e girkeni margi, mana kaka ne osingonigi.

Only he gave no inheritance to the tribe of Levi. The offerings of the LORD, the God of Israel, made by fire are his inheritance, as he spoke to him.

15 Girkeni mane Musa omiyo dhood Reuben kaluwore gi anywola ka anywola e magi:

Moses gave to the tribe of the children of Reuben according to their families.

Their border was from Aroer, that is on the edge of the valley of the Arnon, and the city that is in the middle of the valley, and all the plain by Medeba;

21 mier matindo duto mantiere e pewe kod kuonde duto mag Sihon ruodh jo-Amor, ma bende norito Heshbon. Musa noseloyo Sihon ruodh jo-Amor kaachiel gi Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur gi Reba mane jodong jo-Midian. Jodongogo nodak e pinyno ka gin e bwo loch Sihon.

all the cities of the plain, and all the kingdom of Sihon king of the Amorites, who reigned in Heshbon, whom Moses struck with the chiefs of Midian, Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur, and Reba, the princes of Sihon, who lived in the land.

22 Koriwore gi jogo mane onegi e lweny, jo-Israel nonego bende Balaam wuod Beor, mane ja-nyakalondo.

The children of Israel also killed Balaam the son of Beor, the soothsayer, with the sword, amongst the rest of their slain.

23 Aora Jordan ema nobedo tongʼ mar joka Reuben. Pinyno kaachiel gi mier matindo mokiewo kodgi nobedo girkeni mar joka Reuben.

The border of the children of Reuben was the bank of the Jordan. This was the inheritance of the children of Reuben according to their families, the cities and its villages.

Moses gave to the tribe of Gad, to the children of Gad, according to their families.

25 Piny Jazer, mier matindo duto mag Gilead kod nus mar jo-Amon mochopo Aroer machiegni gi Raba;

Their border was Jazer, and all the cities of Gilead, and half the land of the children of Ammon, to Aroer that is near Rabbah;

26 kendo chakre Heshbon nyaka Ramath Mizpa gi Betonim, kendo kochakore Mahanaim nyaka piny Debir;

and from Heshbon to Ramath Mizpeh, and Betonim; and from Mahanaim to the border of Debir;

27 to pinygi mane ni e holo notingʼo Beth Haram, Beth Nimra, Sukoth, Zafon kod bath piny Sihon ruodh Heshbon modongʼ (pinygino neni yo wuok chiengʼ mar aora Jordan kendo Jordan nyaka Nam Kinereth nodoko tongʼ mare).

and in the valley, Beth Haram, Beth Nimrah, Succoth, and Zaphon, the rest of the kingdom of Sihon king of Heshbon, the Jordan’s bank, to the uttermost part of the sea of Chinnereth beyond the Jordan eastward.

28 Pinyno kaachiel gi mier matindo mokiewo kodgi nobedo girkeni mar joka Gad.

This is the inheritance of the children of Gad according to their families, the cities and its villages.

29 Girkeni mane Musa omiyo nus mar dhood Manase, tiende ni, nus mar nyikwa Manase, kaluwore gi anywola ka anywola.

Moses gave an inheritance to the half-tribe of Manasseh. It was for the half-tribe of the children of Manasseh according to their families.

30 Pinygi nochakore Mahanaim, mokwako piny Og ruodh Bashan duto kod kuonde dak duto mag Jair man Bashan, to gi mier matindo piero auchiel,

Their border was from Mahanaim, all Bashan, all the kingdom of Og king of Bashan, and all the villages of Jair, which are in Bashan, sixty cities.

31 bende nokawo nus mar jo-Gilead, gi Ashtaroth kod Edrei (ma gin mier madongo mag Og ruodh Bashan). Magi e pok mane omi nyikwa Makir wuod Manase, tiende ni nus mar dhood Makir konchiel.

Half Gilead, Ashtaroth, and Edrei, the cities of the kingdom of Og in Bashan, were for the children of Machir the son of Manasseh, even for the half of the children of Machir according to their families.

32 Ma e girkeni mane Musa ochiwo kane en e paw Moab nyaka loka aora Jordan, yo wuok chiengʼ mar Jeriko.

These are the inheritances which Moses distributed in the plains of Moab, beyond the Jordan at Jericho, eastward.

33 To ni dhood Lawi, Musa ne ok opogonigi girkeni, nikech Jehova Nyasaye, ma Nyasach Israel, e girkeni margi, mana kaka nosesingonegi.

But Moses gave no inheritance to the tribe of Levi. The LORD, the God of Israel, is their inheritance, as he spoke to them.
