< Joshua 13 >

1 Many years had passed by, and Joshua had grown old. The Lord spoke to him, saying, “You're now an old man, but there's still a great deal of land still to be taken.
Pea ko eni, kuo motuʻa ʻa Siosiua pea lahi hono taʻu; pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova kiate ia, “Kuo ke motuʻa, pea lahi ho taʻu, pea ʻoku kei toe lahi ʻaupito ʻae fonua ke ikuna.
2 This is the remaining land: the territory of all the Philistines and all the Geshurites,
Ko e fonua eni ʻoku kei toe; ko e ngaahi ngataʻanga ʻoe fonua ʻoe kakai Filisitia, mo Kesuli kotoa pē,
3 from the Shihur River on the border with Egypt north to the border of Ekron—all of which is counted as Canaanite but comes under the five Philistine lords of Gaza, Ashdod, Ashkelon, Gath, and Ekron. In addition there's the land of the Avvites
Mei Sihoa, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he mata fonua ʻo ʻIsipite, ʻio, ʻo aʻu atu ki he ngaahi ngataʻanga ʻo Ekiloni ki tokelau, ʻaia kuo lau ia ki he kau Kēnani: ko e ʻeiki ʻe toko nima ʻoe kau Filisitia; ko e kakai Kesa, mo e kakai ʻAsitoti, mo e kakai ʻEsikoli, mo e kakai ʻa Kati, mo e kakai Ekiloni; pea mo e kakai ʻAvi foki:
4 in the south, all the land of the Canaanites, and Mearah that belongs to the Sidonians, all the way to Aphek on the border with the Amorites,
Mei he potu tonga, ko e fonua kotoa pē ʻoe kau Kēnani, mo Meala ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he potu ʻoe kakai Saitoni, ʻo aʻu ki ʻEfeki, ki he ngataʻanga ʻoe kau ʻAmoli:
5 as well as the land of the Gebalites and the Lebanon area from the town of Baalgad to the slopes of Mount Hermon to Lebo-hamath,
Pea mo e fonua ʻoe kau Kipila, mo Lepanoni kotoa pē ʻo hanga ki he potu hopoʻangalaʻā, meia Peali kata ʻi lalo ʻoe moʻunga ko Heamoni ʻo aʻu ki he hūʻanga ki Hemati.
6 and the those who live in the hill country from Lebanon to Misrephoth Maim, including all the land of the Sidonians. I myself will drive them out ahead of the Israelites. Just allocate the land to Israel for them to own, as I have commanded you.
Ko e kakai kotoa pē ʻoe moʻunga mei Lepanoni ʻo aʻu ki Misilefotimeimi, mo e kakai Saitoni kotoa pē, ko kinautolu te u kapusi kituʻa mei he ʻao ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻIsileli: ka ke vahe ia ʻi he talotalo ki he kakai ʻIsileli ko honau tofiʻa ʻo hangē ko ʻeku fekau kiate koe.
7 So divide this land among the nine tribes and the half-tribe of Manasseh for them to own.”
Pea ko eni, vahevahe ʻae fonua ni ki he faʻahinga ʻe hiva mo hono vaeuaʻanga ʻoe faʻahinga ʻo Manase, ko honau tofiʻa,”
8 The other half of the tribe of Manasseh, and the tribes of Reuben and Gad, had already received their land grant on the east side of the Jordan, as allotted to them by Moses, the servant of the Lord.
‌ʻAia naʻe maʻu fakataha mo e faʻahinga ʻo Lupeni mo Kata ʻa honau tofiʻa, ʻaia naʻe ʻatu kiate kinautolu ʻe Mōsese ʻi he potu ʻo Sioatani ki hahake, ʻio, ʻaia naʻe foaki kiate kinautolu ʻe Mōsese ko e tamaioʻeiki ʻa Sihova;
9 It stretched from Aroer on the edge of the Arnon valley, from the town in the middle of the valley, and all the plateau of Medeba, up to Dibon;
Mei ʻAloeli ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he tafaʻaki vaitafe ʻo ʻAlanoni, pea mo e kolo ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he loto vaitafe, mo e toafa kotoa pē ʻo Metepa ʻo aʻu ki Tiponi;
10 and all the towns that belonged to Sihon, king of the Amorites, who ruled in Heshbon, up to the border with the Ammonites.
Mo e ngaahi kolo kotoa pē ʻo Sihoni ko e tuʻi ʻoe kau ʻAmoli, ʻaia naʻe pule ʻi Hesiponi, ʻo aʻu ki he ngataʻanga ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻAmoni;
11 In addition it included Gilead, the land of the Geshurites and Maacathites, all of Mount Hermon, and all of Bashan as far as Salecah,
Mo Kiliati, mo e ngataʻanga ʻoe kakai Kesuli, mo Meekati, pea mo e moʻunga kotoa ʻo Heamoni, mo Pesani kotoa pē ʻo aʻu ki Salika;
12 as well as all the land of the kingdom of Og of Bashan, who had ruled in Ashtaroth and Edrei. He was one of the last of the Rephaites. Moses had defeated them and driven them out.
Ko e puleʻanga kotoa pē ʻo Oki ʻi Pesani, ʻaia naʻe pule ʻi ʻAsitelote, pea ʻi ʻEtilei, ʻakinautolu naʻe toe ʻi he toenga kakai lalahi: he naʻe taaʻi ʻakinautolu ʻe Mōsese, ʻo ne kapusi ʻakinautolu kituaʻā.
13 But the Israelites had not driven out the Geshurites or the Maacathites, who still live among them to this very day.
Ka ko e moʻoni naʻe ʻikai kapusi ʻe he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻae kakai ʻo Kesa, mo e kakai ʻo Meekati: ka kuo nofo ʻae kakai Kesa, mo e kakai Meekati fakataha mo e kakai ʻIsileli ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho ni.
14 Moses did not allocate any land for the Levites to own. Instead they were allotted the offerings made by fire to the Lord, the God of Israel, as the Lord had promised them.
Ko e faʻahinga pe ʻo Livai naʻe ʻikai ʻatu ʻe ia ha tofiʻa ki ai; ko e ngaahi feilaulau kia Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli naʻe ngaohi ʻaki ʻae afi ko honau tofiʻa ia ʻo hangē ko ʻene tala kiate kinautolu.
15 This was the land that Moses allotted to the tribe of Reuben, by families:
Pea naʻe foaki ʻe Mōsese ki he faʻahinga ʻoe fānau ʻa Lupeni ʻo fakatatau ki honau ngaahi faʻahinga.
16 Their territory stretched from Aroer on the edge of the Arnon valley, from the town in the middle of the valley, and all the plateau of Medeba;
Pea naʻe hoko ki ʻAloeli honau ngataʻanga, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he tafaʻaki vaitafe ʻo ʻAlanoni, mo e kolo ʻoku ʻi he loto vaitafe, pea mo e toafa kotoa pē ʻo Metepa;
17 Heshbon and all associated towns on the plateau—Dibon, Bamoth Baal, Beth Baal Meon,
Ko Hesiponi, mo hono ngaahi kolo kotoa pē ʻi he toafa; ko Tiponi, mo Pamoti-Peali, mo e Pete-Peali-mioni,
18 Jahaz, Kedemoth, Mephaath,
Mo Sehasi, mo Ketimote mo Mefeta,
19 Kiriathaim, Sibmah, Zereth-shahar, on a hill in the valley,
Mo Kesatemi, mo Sipima, mo Seletiseha, ʻi he moʻunga ʻoe teleʻa,
20 Beth-peor, the slopes of Pisgah, Beth-jeshimoth—
Mo Pete Peoli, mo ʻAsitoti-pisika, mo Pete-Sesimote,
21 all the towns of the plateau and all the kingdom of Sihon, the Amorite king, who ruled in Heshbon. He was defeated by Moses, as well as the Midianite leaders Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur, and Reba, princes who lived in the kingdom and who were allied to Sihon.
Pea mo e ngaahi kolo ʻoe toafa, mo e puleʻanga kotoa pē ʻo Sihoni ko e tuʻi ʻoe kau ʻAmoli, ʻaia naʻe pule ʻi Hesiponi, ʻaia naʻe taaʻi ʻe Mōsese mo e houʻeiki ʻo Mitiane, ko Ivi, mo Lekimi, mo Sua, mo Hua, mo Lepa, ko e houʻeiki ʻakinautolu mo Sihoni, naʻe nofo ʻi he fonua.
22 At the same time the Israelites killed Balaam, son of Beor, the fortune-teller, along with the others who were slaughtered.
Ko Pelami foki ko e foha ʻo Peoli ko e taulatuki, naʻe tāmateʻi ia ʻe he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻaki ʻae heletā fakataha mo kinautolu naʻe teʻia.
23 The Jordan was the boundary for the tribe of Reuben. This was the land, the towns and the villages, allotted to the tribe of Reuben, by families.
Pea ko e ngataʻanga [fonua ]ʻoe fānau ʻa Lupeni, ko Sioatani, mo hono kauvai. Ko e tofiʻa ia ʻoe fānau ʻa Lupeni ʻo fakatatau ki honau ngaahi faʻahinga, ko e ngaahi kolo mo e ngaahi potu kakai ʻi ai.
24 This was the land that Moses allotted to the tribe of Gad, by families:
Pea naʻe foaki ʻe Mōsese ki he faʻahinga ʻo Kata, ʻio, ki he fānau ʻa Kata ʻo fakatatau ki honau ngaahi faʻahinga.
25 Their territory was Jazer, all the towns of Gilead, and half of the land of the Ammonites up to Aroer, near Rabbah;
Pea ko honau ngataʻanga ko Sesa, mo e ngaahi kolo kotoa pē ʻo Kiliati, mo hono vaeuaʻanga mālie ʻoe fonua ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻAmoni, ʻo aʻu ki ʻAloeli ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he ʻao ʻo Lapa;
26 stretching from Heshbon to Ramath-mizpeh and Betonim, and from Mahanaim to the Debir region.
Pea mei Hesiponi ʻo aʻu ki Lamamisipa, mo Petonimi; pea mei Mehanemi ʻo aʻu ki he ngataʻanga ʻo Tipa;
27 In the Jordan valley lay Beth-haram, Beth-nimrah, Succoth, and Zaphon, the rest of the kingdom of Sihon, king of Heshbon. The boundary ran along the Jordan up to the bottom end of the sea of Kinnereth and then ran east.
Pea ʻi he teleʻa, ko Pete-ʻAlami, mo Petenimila, mo Sukote, mo Safoni, ko hono toe ʻoe puleʻanga ʻo Sihoni ko e tuʻi ʻo Hesiponi, ko Sioatani mo hono fonua ʻo aʻu ki he matātahi ʻo Kineleti ʻi he kauvai ʻe taha ʻo Soatani ki hahake.
28 This was the land, the towns and the villages, allotted to the tribe of Gad, by families.
Ko e tofiʻa eni ʻoe fānau ʻa Kata ʻo fakatatau ki honau ngaahi faʻahinga, ko e ngaahi kolo, mo honau ngaahi potu kakai.
29 This was the land that Moses allotted to the half-tribe of Manasseh, that is half of the tribe of the descendants of Manasseh, by families:
Pea naʻe foaki ʻe Mōsese [ʻae tofiʻa ]ki hono vaeuaʻanga ʻoe faʻahinga ʻo Manase: pea ko e [tofiʻa eni ]ʻo hono vaeuaʻanga ʻoe fānau ʻa Manase ʻi honau ngaahi faʻahinga.
30 Their territory stretched from Manahaim through the whole of Bashan, all the kingdom of Og, and all the towns of Jair in Bashan—sixty in all.
Pea naʻe mei Mehanemi honau ngataʻanga, ko Pesani kotoa pē, ʻae puleʻanga kotoa pē ʻo Oki ko e tuʻi ʻo Pesani, mo e ngaahi kolo ʻo Saili, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi Pesani, ko e kolo ʻe onongofulu:
31 Also included was Gilead, and Ashtaroth and Edrei, the towns of king Og in Bashan. This was the land allotted to the descendants of Machir, son of Manasseh, for half of them, by families.
Mo hono vaeuaʻanga ʻo Kiliati, mo ʻAsitelote, mo e ʻEtilei, ko e ngaahi kolo ʻoe puleʻanga ʻo Oki ʻi Pesani, naʻe kau ki he fānau ʻa Mekili ko e foha ʻo Manase, ʻio ʻo aʻu ki hono vaeuamālieʻanga ʻoe fānau ʻa Mekili ʻi honau ngaahi faʻahinga.
32 These were the allocations that Moses made when he was in the plains of Moab, on the other side of the Jordan, east of Jericho.
Ko eni ia ʻaia naʻe vahe ʻe Mōsese ko e ngaahi tofiʻa ʻi he ngaahi potu tafangafanga ʻo Moape, ʻi he kauvai ʻe taha ʻo Soatani, ʻi he potu ʻo Seliko, ki hahake.
33 However, Moses did not allot any land to the Levites, for the Lord, the God of Israel, had promised them that he would be their allocation.
Ka naʻe ʻikai foaki ʻe Mōsese ha tofiʻa ki he faʻahinga ʻo Livai: ko Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli ko honau tofiʻa, ʻo hangē ko ʻene tala kiate kinautolu.
