Emesịa, ndị ndu ezinaụlọ Livayị bịakwutere Elieza, onye nchụaja, na Joshua, nwa Nun, na ndịisi ebo Izrel,
2 And spake vnto them at Shiloh in the land of Canaan, saying, The Lord commanded by the hande of Moses, to giue vs cities to dwell in, with the suburbes thereof for our cattell.

3 So the children of Israel gaue vnto the Leuites, out of their inheritance at the commandement of the Lord these cities with their suburbes.

Ụmụ Merari dịka ikwu ha si dị ketara obodo iri na abụọ site nʼala ndị ebo Ruben, na Gad, na Zebụlọn.
8 So the children of Israel gaue by lot vnto the Leuites these cities with their suburbes, as the Lord had commanded by the hand of Moses.
Ya mere, ụmụ Izrel mezuru iwu niile Onyenwe anyị nyere Mosis site nʼikenye ndị Livayị obodo ha ga-ebi, nakwa ebe anụ ụlọ ha ga-ata nri.

Ọnụọgụgụ obodo niile e kenyere agbụrụ Merari bụ obodo iri na abụọ, ha bụ ndị fọdụrụ na ndị Livayị.

Obodo ọbụla nwere ala gbara ya gburugburu ebe anụ ụlọ ga-anọ kpaa nri.
43 So the Lord gaue vnto Israel all ye land, which hee had sworne to giue vnto their fathers: and they possessed it, and dwelt therein.
Ya mere, Onyenwe anyị nyere ụmụ Izrel ala ahụ ọ ṅụrụ iyi inye ndị nna nna ha. Ha nwetara ya, biri nʼime ya.

45 There failed nothing of all the good things, which the Lord hath sayde vnto the house of Israel, but all came to passe.
O nweghị otu nʼime nkwa ọma niile Onyenwe anyị kwere Izrel nke na-emezughị. O mezuru nkwa niile o kwere ha.
