< Joshua 13 >
1 Josue was old, and far advanced in years, and the Lord said to him: Thou art grown old, and advanced in age, and there is a very large country left, which is not yet divided by lot:
Yoswa atakalamba Yehova anamuwuza kuti, Iwe tsopano wakalamba kwambiri, koma dziko losalandidwa lilipobe lalikulu.
2 To wit, all Galilee, Philistia, and all Gessuri.
“Madera amene atsala ndi awa: chigawo chonse cha Afilisti ndi Agesuri
3 From the troubled river, that watereth Egypt, unto the borders of Accaron northward: the land of Chanaan, which is divided among the lords of the Philistines, the Gazites, the Azotians, the Ascalonites, the Gethites, and the Accronites.
kuchokera ku mtsinje wa Sihori kummawa kwa Igupto mpaka kumpoto kwa dziko la Ekroni. Madera onse amawerengedwa kuti ndi a Akanaani ngakhale amalamulidwa ndi mafumu asanu a Afilisti a ku Gaza, Asidodi, Asikeloni, Gati, Ekroni ndi Agiti, komanso ku Avimu ku chigawo cha kumpoto.
4 And on the south side are the Hevites, all the land of Chanaan, and Maara of the Sidonians as far as Apheca, and the borders of the Amorrhite,
Dziko lina la Akanaani ndi Ameara limene lili mʼmanja mwa Asidoni mpaka ku Afeki, dziko limene linachitana malire ndi dziko la Aamori.
5 And his confines. The country also of Libanus towards the east from Baalgad under mount Hermon to the entering into Emath.
Palinso dziko lonse la Gebala ndi Lebanoni cha kummawa kuyambira ku Baala-Gadi pa tsinde pa phiri la Herimoni mpaka ku Lebo Hamati.
6 Of all that dwell in the mountains from Libanus, to the waters of Maserephoth, and all the Sidonians. I am he that will cut them off from before the face of the children of Israel. So let their land come in as a part of the inheritance of Israel, as I have commanded thee.
“Palinso anthu okhala mʼchigawo cha ku mapiri kuchokera ku Lebanoni mpaka ku Misirefoti-Maimu, Ine ndidzawapirikitsa pamene Aisraeli azidzalowa. Tsono uwagawire Aisraeli dziko limeneli kuti likhale cholowa chawo monga momwe ndakulamulira.
7 And now divide the land in possession to the nine tribes, and to the half tribe of Manasses,
Tsopano ugawire dziko limeneli mafuko asanu ndi anayi ndiponso theka la fuko la Manase, kuti likhale cholowa chawo.”
8 With whom Ruben and Gad have possessed the land, which Moses the servant of the Lord delivered to them beyond the river Jordan, on the east side.
Anthu a fuko la Rubeni ndi fuko la Gadi pamodzi ndi theka lina la fuko la Manase analandira kale cholowa chawo chimene Mose mtumiki wa Yehova anawapatsa. Cholowa chawocho chinali kummawa kwa mtsinje wa Yorodani.
9 From Aroer, which is upon the bank of the torrent Amen, and in the midst of the valley and all the plains of Medaba, as far as Dibon:
Dziko lawolo linayambira ku Aroeri mzinda umene uli pafupi ndi chigwa cha Arinoni, ndiponso mzinda umene uli pakati pa chigwacho. Dzikolo linkaphatikizanso dera lonse lokwera kuyambira ku Medeba mpaka ku Diboni.
10 And all the cities of Sehon, king of the Amorrhites, who reigned in Hesebon, unto the borders of the children of Ammon.
Linkaphatikizanso mizinda yonse ya mfumu Sihoni ya Aamori, imene inkalamulira mu Hesiboni, mpaka ku malire a Aamoni.
11 And Galaad, and the borders of Gessuri and Machati, and all mount Hermon, and all Basan as far as Salecha,
Dzikoli linaphatikizanso Giliyadi, dziko la anthu a ku Gesuri ndi Maaka, phiri lonse la Herimoni ndi dziko lonse la Basani mpaka ku Saleka.
12 All the kingdom of Og in Basan, who reigned in Astaroth and Edrai, he was of the remains of the Raphaims: and Moses overthrew and destroyed them.
Linaphatikizanso dziko la mfumu Ogi ya ku Basani imene imalamulira kuchokera ku Asiteroti ndi Ederi. Iye yekha ndiye anali mfumu ya Arefaimu amene anapulumuka. Mose anali atawagonjetsa anthu amenewa ndi kuwathamangitsira kutali.
13 And the children of Israel would not destroy Gessuri and Machati: and they have dwelt in the midst of Israel, until this present day.
Koma Aisraeli sanathamangitse anthu a ku Gesuri ndi Maaka, kotero iwowa amakhalabe pakati pawo mpaka lero.
14 But to the tribe of Levi he gave no possession: but the sacrifices and victims of the Lord God of Israel, are his inheritance, as he spoke to him.
Koma Mose sanapereke dziko kwa fuko la Alevi popeza zopereka zopatulika zimene anthu ankapereka kwa Yehova, Mulungu wa Israeli, ndizo zinali cholowa chawo monga Yehova anawalonjezera.
15 And Moses gave a possession to the children of Ruben according to their kindreds.
Mose anapereka gawo lina la dziko kwa mabanja a fuko la Rubeni.
16 And their border was from Aroer, which is on the bank of the torrent Arnon, and in the midst of the valley of the same torrent: all the plain, that leadeth to Medaba,
Dziko lawo linayambira ku Aroeri mzinda umene uli pafupi ndi chigwa cha Arinoni, mʼmudzi wa pakati pa chigwa, ndiponso dera lonse lokwera mpaka ku Medeba.
17 And Hesebon, and all their villages, which are in the plains. Dibon also, and Bamothbaal, and the town of Baalmaon,
Dzikolo linaphatikizanso Hesiboni ndi mizinda yake yonse, komanso mizinda monga Diboni, Bamoti Baala, Beti-Baala-Meoni,
18 And Jassa, and Cidimoth, and Mephaath,
Yahaza, Kedemoti, Mefaati.
19 And Cariathaim, and Sabama, and Sarathasar in the mountain of the valley.
Kiriataimu, Sibima, Zereti-Sahari, pa phiri limene lili mʼchigwa,
20 Bethphogor and Asedoth, Phasga and Bethiesimoth,
Beti-Peori, ku matsitso a Pisiga, ndiponso Beti-Yesimoti.
21 And all the cities of the plain, and all the kingdoms of Sehon king of the Amorrhites, that reigned in Hesebon, whom Moses slew with the princes of Madian: Hevi, and Recem, and Sur and Hur, and Rebe, dukes of Sehon inhabitants of the land.
Dzikolo linaphatikizanso mizinda yonse ya ku madera okwera ndiponso dziko lonse la mfumu Sihoni ya Aamori amene ankalamulira kuchokera ku Hesiboni. Mose anamugonjetsa iye pamodzi ndi mafumu a Amidiyani awa: Evi, Rekemu, Zuri, Huri ndi Reba, mafumu amene anagwirizana ndi Sihoni. Onsewa analamulira dzikolo ngati nduna za Sihoni.
22 Balaam also the son of Beer the soothsayer, the children of Israel slew with the sword among the rest that were slain.
Kuwonjezera pa amene anaphedwa ndi nkhondo, Aisraeli anapha ndi lupanga Balaamu mwana wa Beori, amene amachita za matsenga.
23 And the river Jordan was the herder of the children of Ruben. This is the possession of the Rubenites, by their kindreds, of cities and villages.
Malire a fuko la Rubeni anali mtsinje wa Yorodani. Mizinda imeneyi pamodzi ndi midzi yake zinapatsidwa kwa mabanja a fuko la Rubeni kuti akhale cholowa chawo.
24 And Moses gave to the tribe of Gad and to his children by their kindreds a possession, of which this is the division.
Dera limene Mose anapereka kwa mabanja a fuko la Gadi ndi ili:
25 The border of Jaser, and all the cities of Galaad, and half the land of the children of Ammon: as far as Aroer which is over against Rabba:
Dziko la Yazeri, mizinda yonse ya mu Giliyadi ndiponso theka la dziko la Amori kukalekezera ku Aroeri, kufupi ndi Raba;
26 And from Hesebon unto Ramoth, Masphe and Betonim: and from Manaim unto the borders of Dabir.
ndiponso kuyambira ku Hesiboni mpaka ku Ramati-Mizipa, ndi Betonimu; ndiponso kuyambira ku Mahanaimu mpaka ku dziko la Debri.
27 And in the valley Betharan and Bethnemra, and Socoth, and Saphon the other part of the kingdom of Sehon king of Hesebon: the limit of this also is the Jordan, as far as the uttermost part of the sea of Cenereth beyond the Jordan on the east side.
Mu chigwa cha Yorodani analandiramo Beti-Haramu, Beti-Nimira, Sukoti ndi Zafoni pamodzi ndi dziko lonse la mfumu Sihoni ya ku Hesiboni. Malire ake a ku madzulo anali mtsinje wa Yorodani kufikira ku Nyanja ya Kinereti, kumpoto.
28 This is the possession of the children of Gad by their families, their cities, and villages.
Mizinda ndi midzi imeneyi inali cholowa cha mabanja a fuko la Gadi.
29 He gave also to the half tribe of Manasses and his children possession according to their kindreds,
Mose anali atapereka kale gawo lina la dziko limeneli kwa theka la mabanja a fuko la Manase kuti likhale cholowa chawo.
30 The beginning whereof is this: from Manaim all Basan, and all the kingdoms of Og king of Basan, and all the villages of Jair, which are in Basan, threescore towns.
Derali linayambira ku Mahanaimu kuphatikizapo dziko lonse la mfumu Ogi, Mfumu ya ku Basani, pamodzi ndi mizinda 60 ya ku Yairi, ku Basaniko.
31 And half Galaad, and Astaroth, and Edrai, cities of the kingdom of Og in Basan: to the children of Machir, the son of Manasses, to one? half of the children of Machir according to their kindreds.
Derali linaphatikizanso theka la Giliyadi pamodzi ndi Asiteroti ndi Ederi, mizinda yayikulu ya mfumu Ogi wa Basani. Mizinda imeneyi inapatsidwa kwa mabanja a Makiri, mwana wa Manase kuti ikhale cholowa cha theka la ana a Makiri, malinga ndi mabanja awo.
32 This possession Moses divided in the plains of Moab, beyond the Jordan, over against Jericho on the east side.
Umu ndi mmene Mose anagawira malo a mʼchigwa cha Yorodani, kummawa kwa Yeriko, ku tsidya kwa Yorodani.
33 But to the tribe of Levi he gave no possession: because the Lord the God of Israel himself is their possession, as he spoke to them.
Komatu Mose sanapereke malo kwa fuko la Levi. Mose anawawuza kuti zopereka zimene anthu ankapereka kwa Yehova ndizo cholowa chawo.
