8 And from the borders of Juda, from the eastern parts shall be the offering of first-fruits, in the breadth twenty-five thousand [reeds], and in length as one of the portions [measured] from the east even to the western parts: and the sanctuary shall be in the midst of them.
“Kuchita malire ndi Yuda kuchokera kummawa mpaka kumadzulo padzakhala chigawo chimene mudzachipereke ngati mphatso yapadera. Mulifupi mwake mudzakhala makilomita khumi ndi awiri ndi theka, ndipo mulitali mwake, kuchokera kummawa mpaka kumadzulo, mudzafanana ndi zigawo zina za mafuko.

10 Out of this shall be the first-fruits of the holy things to the priests, northward, five and twenty-thousand, and towards the west, ten thousand, and southward, five and twenty thousand: and the mountain of the sanctuary, shall be in the midst of it,
Ichi chidzakhala chigawo chopatulika cha ansembe ndipo chidzagawidwe motere: Mbali ya kumpoto kutalika kwake kudzakhala makilomita khumi ndi awiri ndi theka, mbali ya kumadzulo kudzakhala makilomita asanu, mbali ya kummawa makilomita asanu ndiponso makilomita khumi ndi awiri ndi theka mbali yakummwera. Pakati pake padzakhala malo a Nyumba ya Mulungu.
11 for the priests, for the consecrated sons of Sadduc, who keep the charges of the house, who erred not in the error of the children of Israel, as the Levites erred.
Chimenechi chidzakhala chigawo cha ansembe opatulika, ana a Zadoki, amene ndi okhulupirika ponditumikira Ine, ndipo sanasochere ngati momwe anachitira Alevi pamene Aisraeli anasochera.
12 And the first-fruits shall be given to them out of the first-fruits of the land, [even] a most holy portion from the borders of the Levites.
Chigawochi, mwa zigawo zonse za mʼdzikomo, chidzakhala kwa ansembewo ngati mphatso yawo yapadera. Chidzachita malire ndi dziko la Alevi.

14 No [part] of it shall be sold, nor measured [as for sale], neither shall the first-fruits of the land be taken away: for they are holy to the Lord.
Asagulitse kapena kusinthitsa mbali iliyonse ya chigawo chimenechi. Ichi ndi chigawo chabwino kwambiri ndipo chisapatsidwe kwa anthu ena, chifukwa ndi chopatulikira Yehova.
15 But [concerning] the five thousand that remain in the breadth in the five and twenty thousand, they shall be a suburb to the city for dwelling, and for a space before it: and the city shall be in the midst thereof.
“Chigawo chotsala mulifupi mwake makilomita awiri ndi theka ndipo mulitali mwake makilomita khumi ndi awiri ndi theka, chidzakhala malo a anthu wamba, chomangapo nyumba ndiponso chodyetsera ziweto zawo. Mzinda udzamangidwa pomwepo ndipo udzakhala pakati ndi pakati.

18 And the remainder of the length that is next to the first-fruits of the holy [portion shall be] ten thousand eastward, and ten thousand westward: and they shall be the first-fruits of the sanctuary; and the fruits thereof shall be for bread to them that labour for the city.
Chigawo chotsala, choyandikana ndi chigawo chopatulika, kutalika kwake makilomita asanu mbali yakummawa ndiponso makilomita asanu mbali ya kumadzulo. Dera limeneli lidzakhale lolimamo anthu ogwira ntchito mu mzinda.
19 And they that labour for the city shall labour for it out of all the tribes of Israel.
Anthu ogwira ntchito mu mzinda amene adzalime mʼmundamo adzachokera ku mafuko onse a Israeli.
20 The whole offering [shall be] a square of twenty-five thousand by twenty-five thousand: ye shall separate [again part] of it, the first-fruits of the sanctuary, from the possession of the city.
Chigawo chopatulika chonsechi chidzakhale makilomita khumi ndi awiri ndi theka mbali zonse. Ndiye kuti, mudzapatule padera chigawo chopatulika pamodzi ndi kadziko ka mzindawo.
21 And the prince [shall have] the remainder on this side and on that side from the first-fruits of the sanctuary, and [there shall be] a possession of the city, for five and twenty thousand cubits in length, to the eastern and western borders, for five and twenty thousand to the western borders, next to the portions of the prince; and the first-fruits of the holy things and the sanctuary of the house [shall be] in the midst of it.
“Tsono chigawo chotsala pambali zonse ziwiri za chigawo chopatulika ndi za kadziko ka mzinda, chikhale cha mfumu. Chidzayenda motere: kuyambira mʼmalire a chigawo chopatulika kukalekezera mʼmalire akummawa. Mbali ina kuyambiranso mʼmalire a chigawo chopatulika kukalekezera malire a kumadzulo, kudutsa kufupi ndi zigawo za mafuko. Dera lonselo likhale la mfumu.
22 And there shall be [a portion taken] from the Levites, from the possession of the city in the midst of the princes between the borders of Juda and the borders of Benjamin, and it shall be [the portion] of the princes.

28 And from the borders of Gad, from the eastern parts to the south-western parts; his coasts shall even be from Thaeman, and the water of Barimoth Cades, for an inheritance, unto the great sea.
“Malire a Gadi a mbali yakummwera ku Negevi adzayenda kuchokera ku Tamara mpaka ku dziwe la Meriba Kadesi komanso kuchokera ku Mtsinje wa Igupto mpaka ku Nyanja Yayikulu.
29 This is the land, which ye shall divide by lot to the tribes of Israel, and these are their portions, saith the Lord God.
“Ili ndilo dziko limene mudzagawire mafuko a Israeli kuti likhale cholowa. Zimenezi zidzakhala zigawo zawo, ndikutero Ine Ambuye Yehova.
30 And these are the goings out of the city northward, four thousand and five hundred by measure.
“Izi ndizo zidzakhale zipata zotulukira mzinda, ndipo zidzatchulidwa mayina a mafuko a Israeli. Kuyambira kumpoto kumene kudzakhala kotalika mamita 2,250,
31 And the gates of the city [shall be] after the names of the tribes of Israel: three gates northward; the gate of Ruben, one, and the gate of Juda, one, and the gate of Levi, one.
