50 According to the commandment of Jehovah they gave him the city which he asked, even Timnath-serah in the hill-country of Ephraim. And he built the city, and dwelt in it.
Sur l’ordre de l’Eternel, ils lui donnèrent la ville qu’il avait demandée: Timnat-Sérah, dans la montagne d’Ephraïm. II restaura cette ville et il s’y établit.
51 These are the inheritances, which Eleazar the priest, and Joshua the son of Nun, and the heads of the fathers of the tribes of the sons of Israel, distributed for inheritance by lot in Shiloh before Jehovah, at the door of the tent of meeting. So they made an end of dividing the land.
Telles sont les possessions que le prêtre Eléazar, Josué, fils de Noun, et les chefs de famille des tribus des enfants d’Israël répartirent, par la voie du sort, à Silo, en présence de l’éternel, à l’entrée de la Tente d’assignation: on acheva ainsi le partage du pays.
