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
त्यसपछि लेवी कुलका कुलनायकहरू पुजारी एलाजार, नूनका छोरा यहोशू र इस्राएलका मानिसहरूभित्रका तिनीहरूका पुर्खाहरूको परिवारहरूका अगुवाहरूकहाँ आए ।
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.”
तिनीहरूले कनानको भूमिमा शीलोमा तिनीहरूलाई भने, “परमप्रभुले मोशाद्वारा हाम्रा गाईवस्तुहरूका निम्ति खर्कसहितका बसोबास गर्न हामीलाई सहरहरू दिन आज्ञा गर्नुभएको थियो ।”
3 So by the command of the LORD, the Israelites gave the Levites these cities and their pasturelands out of their own inheritance:
त्यसैले इस्राएलका मानिसहरूले परमप्रभुको आज्ञाद्वारा लेवीहरूलाई तिनीहरूका खर्कहरूसहित तिनीहरूको उत्तराधिकारबाट निम्न सहरहरू दिए ।
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.
कहातीहरूका निम्ति हालेको चिट्ठाको परिणाम यस्तो आयोः लेवीबाट जन्मेका हारूनका सन्तानहरू, पुजारीहरूले यहूदाको कुलबाट, शिमियोनका कुलबाट र बेन्यामीनको कुलबाट दिइएका तेह्रवटा सहर पाए ।
5 The remaining descendants of Kohath received ten cities by lot from the tribes of Ephraim, Dan, and the half-tribe of Manasseh.
बाँकी कहातीहरूलाई एफ्राइम, दान र मनश्शेको आधा कुलबाट दश सहर दिइयो ।
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.
त्यसपछि गेर्शोनबाट जन्मेका मानिसहरूलाई चिट्ठाद्वारा इस्साखार, आशेर, नप्तली र बाशानमा मनश्शेको आधा कुलबाट तेह्रवटा सहर दिइयो ।
7 And the descendants of Merari received twelve cities from the tribes of Reuben, Gad, and Zebulun.
मरारीका सन्तानहरूका कुल-कुलअनुसार रूबेन, गाद र जबूलूनको कुलबाट बाह्रवटा सहर पाए ।
8 So the Israelites allotted to the Levites these cities, together with their pasturelands, as the LORD had commanded through Moses.
त्यसैले इस्राएलका मानिसहरूले परमप्रभुले मोशाद्वारा आज्ञा दिनुभएमुताबिक लेवीहरूलाई यी सहरहरू (तिनीहरूका खर्कहरूसहित) चिट्ठा हालेर दिए ।
9 From the tribes of Judah and Simeon, they designated these cities by name
यहूदा र शिमियोनका कुलहरूबाट तिनीहरूले यहाँ नाउँद्वारा सूची बनाएअनुसार दिए ।
10 to the descendants of Aaron from the Kohathite clans of the Levites, because the first lot fell to them:
यी सहरहरू हारूनका सन्तानहरूलाई दिइयो, जो कहाती कुलका थिए र लेवी वंशबाटका थिए । किनभने पहिले हालेको चिट्ठा तिनीहरूलाई पर्यो ।
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.)
इस्राएलीहरूलाई किर्यत-अर्बा (अर्बा अनाका पिता थिए) अर्थात् जुन हेब्रोन हो यहूदाको पहाडी देशमा यसका खर्कहरूसहित तिनीहरूलाई दिए ।
12 But they had given the fields and villages around the city to Caleb son of Jephunneh as his possession.
