Joshua 18

1 Kanyakla duto mag jo-Israel nochokore Shilo ma giguro Hemb Romo kanyo. Pinyno nobedo e bwo lochgi,

And the whole congregation of the children of Israel assembled themselves together at Shiloh, and set up the tent of meeting there; and the land was subdued before them.

2 makmana ne pod nitiere dhout Israel abiriyo mane pod ok oyudo girkeni margi.

And there remained among the children of Israel seven tribes, which had not yet received their inheritance.

3 Omiyo Joshua nowachone jo-Israel niya, “Ubiro rito nyaka karangʼo kapok uchako kawo mwandu mar piny mane Jehova Nyasaye, ma Nyasach wuoneu, asemiyou?

And Joshua said unto the children of Israel: 'How long are ye slack to go in to possess the land, which the LORD, the God of your fathers, hath given you?

4 Yieruru ji adek koa e dhoot ka dhoot. Abiro oorogi mondo gidhi ginon pinyno kendo gindik malongʼo kuom pinyno, kaluwore gi pok mar ngʼato ka ngʼato. Bangʼe, to gidwog ira.

Appoint for you three men for each tribe; and I will send them, and they shall arise, and walk through the land, and describe it according to their inheritance; and they shall come unto me.

5 Nyaka upog pinyni e migepe abiriyo. Jo-Juda nyaka dongʼ kargi man yo milambo kendo joka Josef bende odongʼ kargi man yo nyandwat.

And they shall divide it into seven portions: Judah shall abide in his border on the south, and the house of Joseph shall abide in their border on the north.

6 Bangʼ ka usendiko malongʼo kuom migepe abiriyo mar pinyno, to ukelnagiuru kae kendo abiro pogonugi gi ombulu e nyim Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachwa.

And ye shall describe the land into seven portions, and bring the description hither to me; and I will cast lots for you here before the LORD our God.

7 Kata kamano, jo-Lawi to ok noyud pok e dieru, nikech tichgi mar dolo ne Jehova Nyasaye e girkeni margi. To Gad, Reuben kod nus mar dhood Manase, to oseyudo girkeni margi e bath aora Jordan ma yo wuok chiengʼ nikech Musa jatich Jehova Nyasaye nosemiyogi.”

For the Levites have no portion among you, for the priesthood of the LORD is their inheritance; and Gad and Reuben and the half-tribe of Manasseh have received their inheritance beyond the Jordan eastward, which Moses the servant of the LORD gave them.'

8 E kinde mane jogi owuok mondo gidhi ginon piny, Joshua nomiyogi chik niya, “Dhiuru kendo utim nonro malongʼo mar pinyni kendo undik gik moko duto muyudo e iye. Bangʼe dwoguru ira kendo abiro miyou pok maru Shilo e nyim Jehova Nyasaye.”

And the men arose, and went; and Joshua charged them that went to describe the land, saying: 'Go and walk through the land, and describe it, and come back to me, and I will cast lots for you here before the LORD in Shiloh.'

9 Omiyo jogo nowuok modhi koluwo dier piny tir. Negindiko gigo duto mane giyudo e pinyno e kitabu, e dala ka dala, e migepe abiriyo kendo mi gidwogo ir Joshua e kambi man Shilo.

And the men went and passed through the land, and described it by cities into seven portions in a book, and they came to Joshua unto the camp at Shiloh.

10 Bangʼe Joshua nomiyogo pok margi Shilo e nyim Jehova Nyasaye, kendo gikanyono nopogo jo-Israel pinyno kaluwore gi dhoutgi.

And Joshua cast lots for them in Shiloh before the LORD; and there Joshua divided the land unto the children of Israel according to their divisions.

11 Pok mar joka Benjamin, notimne anywola ka anywola. Kuonde mane opognigo ne ni e kind Juda gi Josef.

And the lot of the tribe of the children of Benjamin came up according to their families; and the border of their lot went out between the children of Judah and the children of Joseph.

12 Tongʼ-gi ma yo nyandwat nochakore e aora Jordan, kochomo pewe man yo nyandwat mar Jeriko, mi oluwo piny godego kochomo yo podho chiengʼ nyaka ochomo e thim mar Beth Aven.

And their border on the north side was from the Jordan; and the border went up to the side of Jericho on the north, and went up through the hill-country westward; and the goings out thereof were at the wilderness of Beth-aven.

13 Koa kanyo nongʼado kodhi yo milambo mar pewe mag Luz (tiende ni, Bethel), modhi nyaka Ataroth Adar mantiere yo milambo mar Beth Horon Mamwalo.

And the border passed along from thence to Luz, to the side of Luz — the same is Beth-el — southward; and the border went down to Atroth-addar, by the mountain that lieth on the south of Beth-horon the nether.

14 Koa e got momanyore gi Beth Horon mantiere yo milambo, tongʼno nogomo kochomo yo podho chiengʼ mar godno, mogik Kiriath Baal (tiende ni, Kiriath Jearim), ma en dala jo-Juda. Mano e tongʼ-gi ma yo podho chiengʼ.

And the border was drawn and turned about on the west side southward, from the mountain that lieth before Beth-horon southward; and the goings out thereof were at Kiriath-baal — the same is Kiriath-jearim — a city of the children of Judah; this was the west side.

15 Tongʼ ma yo milambo nochakore oko mar Kiriath Jearim mantiere yo podho chiengʼ, kendo tongʼno nochopo nyaka thidhna mar pi Neftoa.

And the south side was from the uttermost part of Kiriath-jearim, and the border went out westward, and went out to the fountain of the waters of Nephtoah.

16 Tongʼno nodhi nyaka e tiend got momanyore gi Holo mar Ben Hinom, kod yo nyandwat mar Holo mar Refaim. Nodhi nyime nyaka e Holo mar Hinom koluwo yo milambo mar pewe mar dala maduongʼ mar jo-Jebus kendo mochopo En Rogel.

And the border went down to the uttermost part of the mountain that lieth before the Valley of the son of Hinnom, which is in the vale of Rephaim northward; and it went down to the Valley of Hinnom, to the side of the Jebusite southward, and went down to En-rogel.

17 Bangʼe nogomo kochiko yo nyandwat, modhi nyaka En Shemesh, kendo nyaka Geliloth, momanyore gi Adumim, kendo oridore kadhi piny nyaka Kit Bohan ma wuod Reuben.

And it was drawn on the north, and went out at En-shemesh, and went out to Geliloth, which is over against the ascent of Adummim; and it went down to the Stone of Bohan the son of Reuben.

18 Nodhi nyime nyaka yo nyandwat mar pewe mag Beth Araba mochopo nyaka Araba.

And it passed along to the side over against the Arabah northward, and went down unto the Arabah.

19 Eka nodhi kendo yo nyandwat mar pewe mag Beth Hogla mi owuok koa yo nyandwat mar dho Nam Chumbi, kama aora Jordan ochakore godo mantiere yo milambo. Mano e tongʼ-gi ma yo milambo.

And the border passed along to the side of Beth-hoglah northward; and the goings out of the border were at the north bay of the Salt Sea, at the south end of the Jordan; this was the south border.

20 Aora Jordan ne en tongʼ mantiere yo wuok chiengʼ. Ma e kaka nopog ni anywola mar Benjamin pinygi.

And the Jordan was to be the border of it on the east side. This was the inheritance of the children of Benjamin, by the borders thereof round about, according to their families.

21 Mier madongo mane dhood Benjamin nitierego kaluwore gi anywolagi e magi: Jeriko, Beth Hogla, Emek Keziz,

Now the cities of the tribe of the children of Benjamin according to their families were Jericho, and Beth-hoglah, and Emek-keziz;

22 Beth Araba, Zemaraim, Bethel,

and Beth-arabah, and Zemaraim, and Beth-el;

23 Avim, Para, Ofra,

and Avvim, and Parah, and Ophrah;

24 Kefa Amoni, Ofni kod Geba. Giduto ne gin mier kod gwenge apar gariyo.

and Chephar-ammonah, and Ophni, and Geba; twelve cities with their villages:

25 Mier mamoko ne gin: Gibeon, Rama, Beeroth,

Gibeon, and Ramah, and Beeroth;

26 Mizpa, Kefira, Moza,

and Mizpeh, and Chephirah, and Mozah;

27 Rekem, Irpil, Tarala,

and Rekem, and Irpeel, and Taralah;

28 Zela, Haelef, jo-Jebus (tiende ni, Jerusalem), Gibea kod Kiriath. Giduto ne gin mier kod gwenge maromo apar gangʼwen. Magi e mier mane opog ni dhood Benjamin.

and Zela, Eleph, and the Jebusite — the same is Jerusalem, Gibeath, and Kiriath; fourteen cities with their villages. This is the inheritance of the children of Benjamin according to their families.
