Joshua 18
1 The land had been subdued and lay before them. The Israelites gathered together at Shiloh and set up the Tent of Meeting.
Celotna skupnost Izraelovih otrok se je zbrala skupaj pri Šilu in tam postavila šotorsko svetišče skupnosti. In dežela je bila podjarmljena pred njimi.
2 However, seven of the Israelite tribes had not received their land allocations.
Tam je med Izraelovimi otroki ostalo sedem rodov, ki še niso prejeli svoje dediščine.
3 So Joshua asked the Israelites, “How long will you go on being reluctant to go and take possession of the land that the Lord gave your forefathers?
Józue je rekel Izraelovim otrokom: »Doklej se obirate, da greste, da vzamete v last deželo, ki vam jo je dal Gospod, Bog vaših očetov?
4 Choose three men from each tribe and I will send them out to explore the land. Then they can write a description regarding the land allocations and bring it to me.
Dajte izmed sebe tri može za vsak rod in poslal jih bom in vstali bodo in šli skozi deželo in jo opisali glede na njihovo dediščino in ponovno bodo prišli k meni.
5 They are to divide the land into seven parts, up to the boundary of Judah's land in the south and Joseph's land in the north.
To bodo razdelili na sedem delov. Juda bo ostal v svojih pokrajinah na jugu in Jožefova hiša bo ostala v svojih pokrajinah na severu.
6 Once you have written the description the land, dividing it in seven parts, you will bring it to me here and I will cast lots for you in the presence of the Lord our God.
Vi boste torej opisali deželo v sedmih delih in opis prinesli sèm k meni, da lahko mečem žrebe za vas tukaj pred Gospodom, svojim Bogom.
7 But the Levites do not receive a share, for their role as priests of the Lord is their allocation. Also, Gad, Reuben, and the half-tribe of Manasseh have already received their allocation that Moses, the servant of the Lord, gave them on the east side of the Jordan.”
Toda Lévijevci nimajo deleža med vami, kajti Gospodovo duhovništvo je njihova dediščina. Gad, Ruben in polovica Manásejevega rodu so prejeli svojo dediščino onkraj Jordana, na vzhodu, ki jim jo je dal Gospodov služabnik Mojzes.«
8 As the men started out on their way to explore the land. Joshua told them, “Go throughout the land and write a description of what you find. Then return to me and I will cast lots for you in the presence of the Lord here in Shiloh.”
Možje so vstali ter odšli stran in Józue jim je naročil, da gredo, da opišejo deželo, rekoč: »Pojdite in hodite skozi deželo in jo opišite in ponovno pridite k meni, da bom tukaj v Šilu za vas lahko vrgel žrebe pred Gospodom.«
9 So the men went and explored the land and wrote down on a scroll a description of the seven parts, recording the towns in each part. Then they returned to Joshua at the camp in Shiloh
Možje so odšli in šli skozi deželo in jo v knjigi opisali po mestih v sedmih delih in ponovno prišli k Józuetu, k vojski pri Šilu.
10 where Joshua cast lots for them in the presence of the Lord. There Joshua divided the land up and allotted the different parts to the remaining Israelite tribes.
Józue je zanje v Šilu metal žrebe pred Gospodom in tam je Józue Izraelovim otrokom razdelil deželo glede na njihove oddelke.
11 The first lot cast went to the tribe of Benjamin, by families. The land allotted lay between that of the tribe of Judah and the tribe of Joseph.
Žreb rodu Benjaminovih otrok je prišel gor glede na njihove družine in pokrajina njihovega žreba je prišla naprej med Judovimi otroki in Jožefovimi otroki.
12 Their boundary began at the Jordan, and went north of the slope of Jericho, west through the hill country, coming out at the wilderness of Beth-aven.
Njihova meja na severni strani je bila od Jordana in meja je šla gor k strani Jerihe na severni strani in se dvigala skozi gore proti zahodu in njeni izhodi so bili pri divjini Bet Aven.
13 Then the boundary went south to Luz (or Bethel) and on down to Ataroth-addar on the mountain south of Lower Beth-horon.
Meja je od tam šla preko, proti Luzu, k strani Luza, ki je Betel, proti jugu in meja se je spustila k Atrót Adárju, blizu hriba, ki leži na južni strani spodnjega Bet Horóna.
14 Here the boundary turned south along the western side of the mountain facing Beth-horon, finishing at Kiriath-baal (or Kiriath-jearim), a town of the tribe of Judah. This was the western boundary.
Meja je bila potegnjena od tam in obdala vogal morja proti jugu, od hriba, ki leži pred Bet Horónom proti jugu in njihovi izhodi so bili pri Kirját Báalu, ki je Kirját Jearím, mesto Judovih otrok. To je bila zahodna četrtina.
15 The southern boundary began at the edge of Kiriath-jearim. It ran to the spring at Nephtoah,
Južna četrtina je bila od konca Kirját Jearíma in meja se je nadaljevala na zahod in izšla pri izviru vodá Neftóaha
16 and then down to the foot of the mountain that faces the valley of Ben-hinnom, at the north end of the valley of Rephaim. Then it went down the valley of Hinnom, along the slope near the Jebusite town, south towards En-rogel.
in meja se je spustila k vznožju gore, ki leži pred dolino sina Hinómovega in ki je v dolini velikanov na severu in se spustila k Hinómovi dolini, k strani Jebúsa na jugu in se spustila k En Rogelu
17 From there it headed north to En-shemesh and on to Geliloth, opposite the heights of Adummim, and then on down to the Stone of Bohan (Reuben's son).
in potegnjena je bila od severa in šla naprej k En Šemešu in šla naprej proti Gelilótu, ki je nasproti vzpona k Adumímu in se spustila h kamnu Rubenovega sina Bohana
18 Then it went along the ridge opposite the Jordan Valley to the north, and then down into the Jordan Valley itself.
in šla naprej proti strani nasproti Arábi proti severu in se spustila k Arábi.
19 From there it ran along the north slope of Beth-hoglah, ending at the north bay of the Salt Sea, the southern end of the Jordan. This was the southern boundary.
Meja je šla vzdolž strani Bet Hogle proti severu in izhodi meje so bili pri severnem zalivu slanega morja, pri južnem koncu Jordana. To je bila južna pokrajina.
20 The eastern boundary was the Jordan. These were the boundaries around the land of the tribe of Benjamin, by families.
Jordan je bil njegova meja na vzhodni strani. To je bila dediščina Benjaminovih otrok, po njihovih pokrajinah naokoli, glede na njihove družine.
21 These were the towns of the tribe of Benjamin, according to families: Jericho, Beth-hoglah, Emek-keziz,
Torej mesta rodov Benjaminovih otrok glede na njihove družine so bila Jeriha, Bet Hogla, dolina Kecíc,
