< Joshua 21 >

1 And the heads of the families of the sons of Levi drew near to Eleazar the priest, and to Joshua the [son] of Naue, and to the heads of families of the tribes of Israel.
Or, les chefs de famille des Lévites s'approchèrent d'Éléazar, le sacrificateur, et de Josué, fils de Nun, et des chefs de famille des tribus des enfants d'Israël;
2 And they spoke to them in Selo in the land of Chanaan, saying, The Lord gave commandment by Moses to give us cities to dwell in, and the country round about for our cattle.
Et ils leur parlèrent à Silo, dans le pays de Canaan, et leur dirent: L'Éternel a commandé par l'organe de Moïse qu'on nous donnât des villes pour y habiter, et leurs banlieues pour notre bétail.
3 So the children of Israel gave to the Levites in their inheritance by the command of the Lord the cities and the country round.

L'Éternel donna donc à Israël tout le pays qu'il avait juré de donner à leurs pères. Ils le possédèrent, et y habitèrent.
44 And the Lord gave them rest round about, as he sware to their fathers: not one of all their enemies maintained his ground against them; the Lord delivered all their enemies into their hands.
Et l'Éternel leur donna du repos de tous côtés, selon tout ce qu'il avait juré à leurs pères; et il n'y eut aucun de tous leurs ennemis qui subsistât devant eux; l'Éternel livra tous leurs ennemis entre leurs mains.
45 There failed not one of the good things which the Lord spoke to the children of Israel; all came to pass.
Il ne tomba pas un seul mot de toutes les bonnes paroles que l'Éternel avait dites à la maison d'Israël; toutes s'accomplirent.
