< Joshua 18 >
1 And all the congregation of the sons of Israel is assembled [at] Shiloh, and they cause the Tent of Meeting to dwell there, and the land has been subdued before them.
Maka berkumpullah segenap umat Israel di Silo, lalu mereka menempatkan Kemah Pertemuan di sana, karena negeri itu telah takluk kepada mereka.
2 And there are seven tribes left among the sons of Israel who have not shared their inheritance,
Pada waktu itu masih tinggal tujuh suku di antara orang Israel, yang belum mendapat bagian milik pusaka.
3 and Joshua says to the sons of Israel, “Until when are you remiss to go in to possess the land which He, YHWH, God of your fathers, has given to you?
Sebab itu berkatalah Yosua kepada orang Israel: "Berapa lama lagi kamu bermalas-malas, sehingga tidak pergi menduduki negeri yang telah diberikan kepadamu oleh TUHAN, Allah nenek moyangmu?
4 Give three men from you for [each] tribe, and I send them, and they rise and go up and down through the land, and describe it according to their inheritance, and come to me,
Ajukanlah tiga orang dari tiap-tiap suku; maka aku akan menyuruh mereka, supaya mereka bersiap untuk menjelajahi negeri itu, mencatat keadaannya, sekadar milik pusaka masing-masing, kemudian kembali kepadaku.
5 and they have divided it into seven portions—Judah stays by its border on the south, and the house of Joseph stays by their border on the north—
Sesudah itu mereka akan membaginya di antara mereka menjadi tujuh bagian. Suku Yehuda akan tetap tinggal dalam daerahnya di sebelah selatan dan keturunan Yusuf akan tetap tinggal dalam daerahnya di sebelah utara.
6 and you describe the land [in] seven portions, and have brought [it] to me here, and I have cast a lot for you here before our God YHWH;
Kamu catat keadaan negeri itu dalam tujuh bagian dan kamu bawa ke mari kepadaku; lalu aku akan membuang undi di sini bagi kamu di hadapan TUHAN, Allah kita.
7 for there is no portion for the Levites in your midst, for the priesthood of YHWH [is] their inheritance, and Gad, and Reuben, and half of the tribe of Manasseh received their inheritance beyond the Jordan eastward, which Moses, servant of YHWH, gave to them.”
Sebab orang Lewi tidak mendapat bagian di tengah-tengah kamu, karena jabatan sebagai imam TUHAN ialah milik pusaka mereka, sedang suku Gad, suku Ruben dan suku Manasye yang setengah itu telah menerima milik pusaka di sebelah timur sungai Yordan, yang diberikan kepada mereka oleh Musa, hamba TUHAN."
8 And the men rise and go; and Joshua commands those who are going to describe the land, saying, “Go, and walk up and down through the land, and describe it, and return to me, and here I cast a lot for you before YHWH in Shiloh.”
Kemudian bersiaplah orang-orang itu, lalu pergi, sedang Yosua memerintahkan kepada mereka, pada waktu mereka berangkat, supaya mereka mencatat keadaan negeri itu, katanya: "Pergilah, jelajahilah negeri itu, catatkanlah keadaannya, kemudian kembalilah kepadaku; maka di sini, di Silo, aku akan membuang undi bagi kamu di hadapan TUHAN."
9 And the men go, and pass over through the land, and describe it by cities, in seven portions, on a scroll, and they come to Joshua, to the camp [at] Shiloh.
Orang-orang itu pergi dan berjalan melalui negeri itu; mereka mencatat keadaannya dalam suatu daftar, kota demi kota, dalam tujuh bagian, lalu kembali kepada Yosua ke tempat perkemahan di Silo.
10 And Joshua casts a lot for them in Shiloh before YHWH, and there Joshua apportions the land to the sons of Israel, according to their divisions.
Lalu Yosua membuang undi bagi mereka di Silo, di hadapan TUHAN, dan di sanalah Yosua membagikan negeri itu kepada orang Israel, sesuai dengan pembagian mereka.
11 And a lot goes up [for] the tribe of the sons of Benjamin, for their families; and the border of their lot goes out between the sons of Judah and the sons of Joseph.
Maka keluarlah undian suku bani Benyamin menurut kaum-kaum mereka, dan daerah yang diundikan kepada mereka terdapat antara daerah bani Yehuda dan daerah bani Yusuf.
12 And the border is for them at the north side from the Jordan, and the border has gone up to the side of Jericho on the north, and gone up through the hill-country westward, and its outgoings have been at the wilderness of Beth-Aven;
Batas pada sisi utara bagi mereka mulai dari sungai Yordan; kemudian batas itu naik ke lereng gunung di sebelah utara Yerikho, naik ke barat ke pegunungan, dan menuju ke padang gurun Bet-Awen.
13 and the border has gone over there to Luz, to the side of Luz (it [is] Beth-El) southward, and the border has gone down [to] Atroth-Addar, by the hill that [is] on the south of the lower Beth-Horon;
Dari sana batas itu terus ke Lus, ke selatan, ke arah lereng gunung dekat Lus, itulah Betel; kemudian batas itu turun ke Atarot-Adar di pegunungan yang di sebelah selatan Bet-Horon Hilir.
14 and the border has been marked out, and has gone around to the corner of the sea southward, from the hill which [is] at the front of Beth-Horon southward, and its outgoings have been to Kirjath-Ba‘al (it [is] Kirjath-Jearim), a city of the sons of Judah: this [is] the west quarter.
Kemudian batas itu melengkung, lalu membelok dari pegunungan yang di seberang Bet-Horon di sebelah selatan menuju ke sisi barat daya, dan berakhir di Kiryat-Baal, itulah Kiryat-Yearim, suatu kota bani Yehuda. Itulah sisi barat.
15 And the south quarter [is] from the end of Kirjath-Jearim, and the border has gone out westward, and has gone out to the fountain of the waters of Nephtoah;
Sisi selatan mulai dari ujung Kiryat-Yearim, kemudian batas itu menuju ke barat, dan menuju pula ke mata air Me-Neftoah.
16 and the border has come down to the extremity of the hill which [is] on the front of the Valley of the Son of Hinnom, which [is] in the Valley of the Rephaim northward, and has gone down the Valley of Hinnom to the side of Jebusi southward, and gone down [to] En-Rogel,
Selanjutnya batas itu turun ke ujung pegunungan yang di tentangan lebak Ben-Hinom, di sebelah utara lembah orang Refaim; kemudian turun ke lebak Hinom, sepanjang lereng gunung Yebus, ke selatan, kemudian turun ke En-Rogel.
17 and has been marked out on the north, and gone out to En-Shemesh, and gone out to Geliloth, which [is] opposite the ascent of Adummim, and gone down [to] the stone of Bohan son of Reuben,
Kemudian melengkung ke utara, menuju ke En-Semes dan menuju pula ke Gelilot di seberang pendakian Adumim, turun ke batu Bohan bin Ruben,
18 and passed over to the side in front of the Arabah northward, and gone down to Arabah;
terus ke lereng gunung di seberang Bet-Araba ke utara, dan turun ke Araba-Yordan.
19 and the border has passed over to the side of Beth-Hoglah northward, and the outgoings of the border have been to the north bay of the Salt Sea, to the south extremity of the Jordan; this [is] the south border;
Kemudian batas itu terus ke lereng gunung dekat Bet-Hogla ke utara dan batas itu berakhir ke teluk utara Laut Asin, ke muara sungai Yordan di sebelah selatan. Itulah batas selatan.
20 and the Jordan borders it at the east quarter; this [is] the inheritance of the sons of Benjamin, by its borders all around, for their families.
Sungai Yordan ialah batasnya pada sisi timur. Itulah milik pusaka bani Benyamin dengan batas-batasnya ke segala penjuru menurut kaum-kaum mereka.
21 And the cities for the tribe of the sons of Benjamin, for their families, have been Jericho, and Beth-Hoglah, and the Valley of Keziz,
Kota-kota suku bani Benyamin menurut kaum-kaum mereka ialah Yerikho, Bet-Hogla, Emek-Kezis,
22 and Beth-Arabah, Zemaraim, and Beth-El,
Bet-Araba, Zemaraim, Betel,
23 and Avim, and Parah, and Ophrah,
