Numbers 34
1 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
UThixo wathi kuMosi,
2 Command the children of Israel, and say unto them, When ye come into the land of Canaan, this shall be the land that shall fall to you for an inheritance, the land of Canaan according to the borders thereof.
“Laya abako-Israyeli uthi kubo: ‘Nxa lingena eKhenani, ilizwe elizaliphiwa ukuba libe yisabelo senu lizakuba lale imingcele:
3 Then your south side shall be from the wilderness of Zin alongside of Edom, and your southern border shall be from the end of the salt sea eastward;
Icele leningizimu yenu lizahlanganisa isigaba esithile seNkangala yaseZini kulandela umngcele we-Edomi. Empumalanga, umngcele wenu weningizimu uzasukela ekucineni koLwandle lweTswayi,
4 and your border shall turn from the south of the ascent of Akrabbim, and pass on to Zin, and shall end southward at Kadesh-barnea, and shall go on to Hazar-Addar, and pass on to Azmon.
udabula eningizimu yoMkhandlu weNkume, kusiya ngaseZini njalo kuye eningizimu yeKhadeshi Bhaneya. Usuka lapho uzaqonda eHazari Adari njalo wedlulele e-Azimoni,
5 And the border shall turn from Azmon unto the torrent of Egypt, and shall end at the sea.
lapho ozajika khona, kuhlangane lesiHotsha saseGibhithe njalo uyephelela oLwandle lwaseMedithereniyeni.
6 And as west border ye shall have the great sea, and [its] coast. This shall be your west border.
Umngcele wenu wentshonalanga uzakuba ligumbi loLwandle oLukhulu. Lo uzakuba ngumngcele wenu entshonalanga.
7 And this shall be your north border: from the great sea ye shall mark out for you mount Hor;
Okomngcele wenu wenyakatho, usekela uLwandle oLukhulu usiya eNtabeni yaseHori
8 from mount Hor ye shall mark out the entrance to Hamath, and the end of the border shall be toward Zedad;
njalo usuka eNtabeni yaseHori uye eLebho Hamathi. Umngcele uzasuka lapho uqonde eZedadi,
9 and the border shall go to Ziphron, and shall end at Hazar-enan. This shall be your north border.
ubusuqhubeka usiya eZifironi uze uyekuma eHazari-Enani. Lo yiwo umngcele wenu enyakatho.
10 And ye shall mark out for you as eastern border from Hazar-enan to Shepham:
Okomngcele wenu wempumalanga, sukelani eHazari-Enani kusiya eShefamu.
11 and the border shall go down from Shepham to Riblah, on the east side of Ain; and the border shall descend, and shall strike upon the extremity of the sea of Chinnereth eastward;
Umngcele uzakwehla usuka eShefamu usiya eRibhila engempumalanga kwe-Ayini njalo uqhubeke ulandela umthezuko empumalanga koLwandle lwaseKhinerethi.
12 and the border shall go down to the Jordan, and shall end at the salt sea. This shall be your land according to the borders thereof round about.
Kusuka lapho umngcele uzakwehla ulandela umfula uJodani uze uyecina oLwandle lweTswayi. Leli lizakuba yilizwe lenu, ngemingcele yalo inxa zonke.’”
13 And Moses commanded the children of Israel, saying, This is the land which ye shall take for yourselves as inheritance by lot, which Jehovah commanded to give to the nine tribes, and to the half tribe.
UMosi walaya abako-Israyeli wathi: “Yabelanani lelilizwe ngenkatho njengelifa lenu. UThixo usekhuphe isiqondiso sokuthi aliphiwe izizwana eziyisificamunwemunye kanye lesizwana esiyingxenye,
14 For the tribe of the children of the Reubenites according to their fathers' houses, and the tribe of the children of the Gadites according to their fathers' houses, have received, and half the tribe of Manasseh have received their inheritance;
ngenxa yokuthi abezimuli zesizwana sikaRubheni, abesizwana sikaGadi kanye lengxenye yesizwana sikaManase sebethole isabelo sabo.
15 the two tribes and the half tribe have received their inheritance on this side the Jordan of Jericho eastward, toward the sun-rising.
Izizwana lezi ezimbili kanye lalesi esiyingxenye sezithole isabelo sazo empumalanga komfula uJodani malungana leJerikho, ngokuya ngempumalanga.”
16 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
UThixo wathi kuMosi,
17 These are the names of the men who shall divide the land unto you: Eleazar the priest, and Joshua the son of Nun.
“La ngamabizo amadoda azalabela ilizwe njengelifa lenu: u-Eliyazari umphristi kanye loJoshuwa indodana kaNuni.
18 And ye shall take one prince of every tribe, to divide the land.
Beselikhetha umkhokheli oyedwa esizwaneni ngasinye ukuncedisa ukwaba ilizwe:
19 And these are the names of the men: for the tribe of Judah, Caleb the son of Jephunneh;
La yiwo amabizo abo: uKhalebi indodana kaJefune, owesizwana sakoJuda;
20 and for the tribe of the children of Simeon, Samuel the son of Ammihud;
uShemuyeli indodana ka-Amihudi, owesizwana sakoSimiyoni;
21 for the tribe of Benjamin, Elidad the son of Chislon;
u-Elidadi indodana kaKhisiloni, owesizwana sakoBhenjamini;
22 and for the tribe of the children of Dan, a prince, Bukki the son of Jogli;
uBhukhi indodana kaJogili, umkhokheli ovela esizwaneni sakoDani;
23 for the children of Joseph: for the tribe of the children of Manasseh, a prince, Hanniel the son of Ephod,
uHaniyeli indodana ka-Efodi, ongumkhokheli ovela esizwaneni sikaManase indodana kaJosefa;
24 and for the tribe of the children of Ephraim, a prince, Kemuel the son of Shiphtan;
uKhemuweli indodana kaShifuthani, engumkhokheli ovela esizwaneni sako-Efrayimi indodana kaJosefa;
25 and for the tribe of the children of Zebulun, a prince, Elizaphan the son of Pharnach;
u-Elizafani indodana kaPhanaki, umkhokheli ovela esizwaneni sikaZebhuluni;
26 and for the tribe of the children of Issachar, a prince, Phaltiel the son of Azzan;
uPhalithiyeli indodana ka-Azani, umkhokheli ovela esizwaneni sika-Isakhari,
27 and for the tribe of the children of Asher, a prince, Ahihud the son of Shelomi;
u-Ahihudi indodana kaShelomi, umkhokheli ovela esizwaneni sika-Asheri;
28 and for the tribe of the children of Naphtali, a prince, Phedahel the son of Ammihud.
uPhedaheli indodana ka-Amihudi, umkhokheli ovela esizwaneni sikaNafithali.”
29 These are they whom Jehovah commanded to distribute to the children of Israel their inheritance in the land of Canaan.
La yiwo amadoda uThixo alaya ukuthi ahlukanisele abako-Israyeli isabelo sabo selizwe laseKhenani.
