< Joshua 13 >

1 Nowe when Ioshua was olde, and striken in yeeres, the Lord said vnto him, Thou art olde and growen in age, and there remaineth exceeding much land to be possessed:
Bere a Yosua bɔɔ akwakoraa no, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Worebɔ akwakoraa nso nsase pii wɔ hɔ a ɛsɛ sɛ woko di so.
2 This is the land that remaineth, all the regions of the Philistims, and all Geshuri,
“Ɛsɛ sɛ nnipa no tena Filistifo ne Gesur,
3 From Nilus which is in Egypt, euen vnto the borders of Ekron Northward: this is counted of the Canaanites, euen fiue Lordships of the Philistims, the Azzithites, and the Ashdodites, the Eshkelonites, the Gittites, and the Ekronites, and the Auites:
“nsase a na ɛyɛ Kanaanfo de no so. Saa asase yi fi asu Sihor a ɛda Misraim hye so a ɛsen fa atifi fam kosi Ekron hye so,
4 From the South, all the land of the Canaanites, and the caue that is beside the Sidonians, vnto Aphek, and to the borders of the Amorites:

5 And the land of the Giblites, and all Lebanon, toward the sunne rising from Bahal-gad vnder mount Hermon, vntil one come to Hamath.
ne Gebalfo asase ne Lebanon nyinaa wɔ apuei fam, de fi Baal-Gad a ɛda Hermon bepɔw ase, de kosi Hamat fam.
6 All the inhabitants of the mountaines from Lebanon vnto Misrephothmaim, and all the Sidonians, I wil cast them out from before the children of Israel: only deuide thou it by lot vnto the Israelites, to inherite, as I haue commanded thee.
“Mmepɔw asase a efi Lebanon kosi Misrefot-Maim nyinaa a Sidonfo nsase nyinaa ka ho. Metu saa nnipa no nyinaa afi asase no so na mede ama Israelfo. Enti hwɛ na fa saa asase no ma Israelfo sɛ agyapade sononko sɛnea mahyɛ wo no.
7 Nowe therefore deuide this lande to inherite, vnto the nine tribes, and to the halfe tribe of Manasseh.
Fa saa asase yi nyinaa sɛ Israelfo agyapade bere a worekyekyɛ mu ama mmusuakuw akron no ne Manase abusua fa no.”
8 For with halfe therof the Reubenites and the Gadites haue receiued their inheritance, which Moses gaue them beyond Iorden Eastward, euen as Moses the seruant of the Lord had giuen them,
Manase abusua fa, Rubenfo ne Gadfo de, na wɔanya wɔn agyapade wɔ Yordan apuei fam, efisɛ na Mose a ɔyɛ Awurade somfo no de saa asase no ama wɔn dedaw.
9 From Aroer that is on the brinke of the riuer Arnon, and from the citie that is in the mids of the riuer, and all the plaine of Medeba vnto Dibon,
Wɔn asase no fi Aroer a ɛda Arnon Subon no ano (ne kurow a ɛda nsuka no mfimfini) de kɔ sare a ɛtoa Medeba so kosi Dibon.
10 And all the cities of Sihon King of the Amorites, which reigned in Heshbon, vnto the borders of the children of Ammon,
Amorihene Sihon a odii ade wɔ Hesbon kosi Amonfo hye so nkurow nyinaa nso ka ho.
11 And Gilead, and the borders of the Geshurites and of the Maachathites, and all mount Hermon, with all Bashan vnto Salcah:
Gilead, asase a ɛwɔ Gesur ne Maaka ahemman mu, Bepɔw Hermon nyinaa, Basan nyinaa de kosi Saleka ka ho,
12 All the kingdome of Og in Bashan, which reigned in Ashtaroth and in Edrei: (who remained of the rest of the gyants) for these did Moses smite, and cast them out.
na Basanhene Og a odii hene wɔ Astarot ne Edrei nsase nyinaa nso ka ho. Ɔhene Og yɛ Rafatni a otwa to, efisɛ na Mose ne wɔn ako apam wɔn.
13 But the children of Israel expelled not the Geshurites nor the Maachathites: but the Geshurites and the Maachathites dwell among the Israelites euen vnto this day.
Nanso Israelfo no antu Gesurfo ne Maakafo enti wɔtenaa Israelfo no mu de besi nnɛ.
14 Onely vnto the tribe of Leui he gaue none inheritance, but the sacrifices of the Lord God of Israel are his inheritance, as he said vnto him.
Na Lewi abusuakuw no de, wamma wɔn agyapade biara. Wɔn agyapade fi afɔrebɔde a wɔhyew wɔ afɔremuka so ma Awurade, Israel Nyankopɔn no.
15 Moses then gaue vnto the tribe of the children of Reuben inheritance, according to their families.
Mose de saa beae yi maa mmusua a ɛwɔ Ruben abusuakuw mu.
16 And their coast was from Aroer, that is on the brinke of the riuer Arnon, and from the citie that is in the middes of the riuer, and all the plaine which is by Medeba:
Wɔn asase no fi Aroer a ɛda Arnon Subon no ano (ne kurow a ɛda nsuka no mfimfini) de kɔ sare a ɛtoa Medeba so.
17 Heshbon with all the cities thereof, that are in the plaine: Dibon and Bamoth-baal, and Bethbaal-meon:
Nkurow ne nkuraase a ɛkeka ho ni: Hesbon ne nkurow a ɛdeda sare so te sɛ Dibon, Bamot-Baal ne Bet-Baal-Meon,

21 And all the cities of the plaine: and all the kingdome of Sihon King of the Amorites, which reigned in Heshbon, whome Moses smote with the Princes of Midian, Eui, and Rekem, and Zur, and Hur, and Reba, the dukes of Sihon, dwelling in the countrey.
Nkurow a ɛwɔ tataw so nyinaa ne Sihon ahemman nyinaa nso ka Ruben asase no ho. Sihon yɛ Amorihene a na odi ade wɔ Hesbon, nea Mose kum no ne Midian ahemfo a wɔne Ewi, Rekem, Sur, Hur, Reba ne ahenemma a wɔwɔ mpɔtam hɔ a wɔne Sihon yɛ baako.
22 And Balaam the sonne of Beor the soothsayer did the children of Israel slay with the sword, among them that were slaine.
Israelfo no kum Beor babarima nkonyaayifo bi a na wɔfrɛ no Balaam.
23 And the border of the children of Reuben was Iorden with the coastes. This was the inheritance of the children of Reuben according to their families, with the cities and their villages.
Yordan Asubɔnten no yɛ Ruben asase no hye wɔ atɔe fam. Wɔde nkurow ne nkuraa a ɛwɔ saa beae yi maa mmusua a ɛwɔ Ruben abusuakuw no mu sɛ wɔn agyapade.
24 Also Moses gaue inheritance vnto ye tribe of Gad, euen vnto the children of Gad according to their families.
Mose de saa asase yi maa mmusua a ɛwɔ Gad abusuakuw mu.
25 And their coastes were Iazer, and all the cities of Gilead and halfe the lande of the children of Ammon vnto Aroer, which is before Rabbah:
Wɔn asase no yɛ Yaser, Gilead nkurow nyinaa, ne Amon asase no fa, kosi Aroer kurow a ɛwɔ Raba atɔe fam pɛɛ.
26 And from Heshbon vnto Ramoth, Mizpeh, and Betonim: and from Mahanaim vnto the borders of Debir:
Na efi Hesbon de kosi Ramat-Mispa ne Betonim de fi Mahanaim de kosi Debir.
27 And in the valley Beth-aram, and Bethnimrah, and Succoth, and Zaphon, the rest of the kingdome of Sihon King of Heshbon, vnto Iorden and the borders euen vnto the Sea coast of Cinneereth, beyond Iorden Eastward.

28 This is the inheritance of the children of Gad, after their families, with the cities, and their villages.
Nkurow ne nkuraa a ɛwɔ saa beae yi na wɔde maa mmusua a ɛwɔ Gad abusuakuw mu sɛ wɔn agyapade.
29 Also Moses gaue inheritance vnto the halfe tribe of Manasseh: and this belonged to the halfe tribe of the children of Manasseh according to their families.
Mose de saa beae yi maa mmusua a ɛwɔ
30 And their border was from Mahanaim, euen all Bashan, to wit, all the kingdome of Og King of Bashan, and all the townes of Iair which are in Bashan, threescore cities,
Na wɔn asase no fi Mahanaim, Basan nyinaa, ɔhene Og kan tete ahemman nyinaa ne nkurow aduosia a ɛwɔ Yair a ɛwɔ Basan no.
31 And halfe Gilead, and Ashtaroth, and Edrei, cities of the kingdom of Og in Bashan, were giuen vnto the children of Machir the sonne of Manasseh, to halfe of the children of Machir after their families.
Gilead fa ne ɔhene Og ahenkurow, Astarot ne Edrei ka ho. Wɔde eyinom nyinaa maa Makir a na ɔyɛ Manase babarima no asefo.
32 These are the heritages, which Moses did distribute in the plaine of Moab beyond Iorden, toward Iericho Eastward.
Eyinom yɛ nkyekyɛmu a Mose yɛe bere a na ɔwɔ Moab tataw so, wɔ Asubɔnten Yordan akyi, Yeriko apuei fam.
33 But vnto the tribe of Leui Moses gaue none inheritance: for the Lord God of Israel is their inheritance, as he said vnto them.
Nanso Mose amma Lewi abusuakuw no asase biara, efisɛ na Awurade, Israel Nyankopɔn ahyɛ bɔ sɛ ɔno na ɔbɛyɛ wɔn agyapade.
