Joshua 21
1 Now the family heads of the Levites approached Eleazar the priest, Joshua son of Nun, and the heads of the other tribes of Israel
Pođoše tada glavari levitskih obitelji k svećeniku Eleazaru i Jošui, sinu Nunovu, i plemenskim glavarima Izraela.
2 at Shiloh in the land of Canaan and said to them, “The LORD commanded through Moses that we be given cities in which to live, together with pasturelands for our livestock.”
I rekoše im u Šilu, u zemlji kanaanskoj: “Jahve je zapovjedio preko Mojsija da nam se dadu gradovi gdje ćemo živjeti i pašnjaci oko njih za našu stoku.”
3 So by the command of the LORD, the Israelites gave the Levites these cities and their pasturelands out of their own inheritance:
Izraelci dadoše levitima od svoje baštine, po zapovijedi Jahvinoj, ove gradove s njihovim pašnjacima.
4 The first lot came out for the Kohathite clans. The Levites who were descendants of Aaron the priest received thirteen cities by lot from the tribes of Judah, Simeon, and Benjamin.
Iziđe, dakle, ždrijeb za porodice Kehatove: levitima, potomcima svećenika Arona, pripade trinaest gradova od plemena Judina, Šimunova i Benjaminova;
5 The remaining descendants of Kohath received ten cities by lot from the tribes of Ephraim, Dan, and the half-tribe of Manasseh.
ostalim sinovima Kehatovim pripalo je ždrijebom po porodicama deset gradova od plemena Efrajimova i Danova i od polovine plemena Manašeova.
6 The descendants of Gershon received thirteen cities by lot from the tribes of Issachar, Asher, Naphtali, and the half-tribe of Manasseh in Bashan.
Sinovi Geršonovi dobiše po porodicama trinaest gradova od plemena Jisakarova, Ašerova i Naftalijeva i od polovine plemena Manašeova u Bašanu.
7 And the descendants of Merari received twelve cities from the tribes of Reuben, Gad, and Zebulun.
Merarijevim sinovima po njihovim porodicama pripalo je dvanaest gradova od plemena Rubenova, Gadova i Zebulunova.
8 So the Israelites allotted to the Levites these cities, together with their pasturelands, as the LORD had commanded through Moses.
Tako Izraelci ždrijebom dodijeliše levitima te gradove s pašnjacima, kako bijaše zapovjedio Jahve preko Mojsija.
9 From the tribes of Judah and Simeon, they designated these cities by name
Od plemena sinova Judinih i od plemena sinova Šimunovih dodijeljeni su bili ovi gradovi koji se poimence navode:
10 to the descendants of Aaron from the Kohathite clans of the Levites, because the first lot fell to them:
sinovima Aronovim u levitskim porodicama Kehatovim, jer je prvi ždrijeb bio za njih,
11 They gave them Kiriath-arba (that is, Hebron), with its surrounding pasturelands, in the hill country of Judah. (Arba was the father of Anak.)
pripade Kirjat-Arba, glavni grad Anakovaca, to jest Hebron, u Judinoj gori, s pašnjacima unaokolo.
12 But they had given the fields and villages around the city to Caleb son of Jephunneh as his possession.
Ali polja oko toga grada sa selima unaokolo bila su već dana u baštinu Kalebu, sinu Jefuneovu.

41 For the Levites, then, there were forty-eight cities in all, together with their pasturelands, within the territory of the Israelites.
Tako usred baštine sinova Izraelovih bijaše četrdeset i osam levitskih gradova s pašnjacima.
42 Each of these cities had its own surrounding pasturelands; this was true for all the cities.
Svaki je taj grad imao pašnjake unaokolo. Tako je bilo sa svima spomenutim gradovima.
43 Thus the LORD gave Israel all the land He had sworn to give their fathers, and they took possession of it and settled in it.
Tako je Jahve predao Izraelcima svu zemlju za koju se zakleo da će je dati ocima njihovim. Primili su je u posjed i nastanili se u njoj.
44 And the LORD gave them rest on every side, just as He had sworn to their fathers. None of their enemies could stand against them, for the LORD delivered all their enemies into their hand.
I dade im Jahve da otpočinu u miru na svim međama, kako se bijaše zakleo njihovim ocima. Nitko im od njihovih neprijatelja ne bijaše kadar odoljeti. Sve im je njihove neprijatelje predao Jahve u ruke.
45 Not one of all the LORD’s good promises to the house of Israel had failed; everything was fulfilled.
Od svih obećanja što ih je Jahve dao domu Izraelovu nijedno ne osta neispunjeno. Sve se ispunilo.
