Numbers 34
1 And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
INkosi yasikhuluma kuMozisi isithi:
2 “Command the sons of Israel, and you have said to them: When you are coming into the land of Canaan—this [is] the land which falls to you by inheritance, the land of Canaan, by its borders—
Laya abantwana bakoIsrayeli uthi kubo: Lapho lingena elizweni leKhanani, leli lizakuba yilizwe elizawela kini libe yilifa, ilizwe leKhanani, ngokwemingcele yalo.
3 then the south quarter has been to you from the wilderness of Zin, by the sides of Edom, indeed, the south border has been to you from the extremity of the Salt Sea eastward;
Legumbi lenu leningizimu lizakuba kusukela enkangala yeZini, enhlangothini zeEdoma. Njalo uzakuba ngumngcele wenu weningizimu kusukela ekucineni kolwandle lwetshwayi empumalanga.
4 and the border has turned around to you from the south to the ascent of Akrabbim, and has passed on to Zin, and its outgoings have been from the south to Kadesh-Barnea, and it has gone out at Hazar-Addar, and has passed on to Azmon;
Umngcele wenu uzajika uvela eningizimu usiya emqansweni weAkirabimi, wedlulele eZini; lokuphuma kwawo kuzavela eningizimu kuye eKadeshi-Bhaneya; uzaphuma uye eHazari-Adari, wedlulele eAzimoni.
5 and the border has turned around from Azmon to the Brook of Egypt, and its outgoings have been at the sea.
Lomngcele uzajika uvela eAzimoni uye esifuleni seGibhithe; lokuphuma kwawo kuzakuba selwandle.
6 As for the west border, even the Great Sea has been a border to you; this is the west border to you.
Mayelana lomngcele wentshonalanga, ulwandle olukhulu luzakuba ngumngcele wenu; lona luzakuba ngumngcele wenu ngentshonalanga.
7 And this is the north border to you: from the Great Sea you mark out for yourselves Mount Hor;
Lalokhu kuzakuba ngumngcele wenu wenyakatho: Kusukela elwandle olukhulu lizazidwebela intaba yeHori;
8 from Mount Hor you mark out to go to Hamath, and the outgoings of the border have been to Zedad;
kusukela entabeni yeHori lizadweba umngcele oya ekungeneni kweHamathi, lokuphuma komngcele kuye eZedadi.
9 and the border has gone out to Ziphron, and its outgoings have been at Hazar-Enan; this is the north border to you.
Lomngcele uzaphuma uye eZifroni, lokuphuma kwawo kuzakuba eHazari-Enani. Lo uzakuba ngumngcele wenu wenyakatho.
10 And you have marked out for yourselves for the border eastward, from Hazar-Enan to Shepham;
Njalo lizazidwebela umngcele wenu wempumalanga kusukela eHazari-Enani kusiya eShefamu;
11 and the border has gone down from Shepham to Riblah, on the east of Ain, and the border has gone down, and has struck against the shoulder of the Sea of Chinnereth eastward;
lomngcele uzakwehla uvela eShefamu uye eRibila empumalanga kweAyini, lomngcele wehle ufike eceleni kolwandle lweKinerethi ngempumalanga.
12 and the border has gone down to the Jordan, and its outgoings have been at the Salt Sea; this is the land for you by its borders all around.”
Umngcele uzakwehlela-ke eJordani, lokuphuma kwawo kuzakuba solwandle lwetshwayi. Leli lizakuba yilizwe lenu ngemingcele yalo inhlangothi zonke.
13 And Moses commands the sons of Israel, saying, “This [is] the land which you inherit by lot, which YHWH has commanded to give to the nine tribes and the half of the tribe;
UMozisi waselaya abantwana bakoIsrayeli esithi: Leli yilizwe elizakudla ilifa lalo ngenkatho, iNkosi elaye ngalo ukulinika izizwe eziyisificamunwemunye lengxenye yesizwe.
14 for the tribe of the sons of Reuben, by the house of their fathers, and the tribe of the children of Gad, by the house of their fathers, have received [their inheritance]; and [those of] the half of the tribe of Manasseh have received their inheritance;
Ngoba isizwe sabantwana bakoRubeni ngezindlu zaboyise, lesizwe sabantwana bakoGadi ngezindlu zaboyise zemukele, lengxenye yesizwe sakoManase yemukele ilifa layo.
15 the two tribes and the half of the tribe have received their inheritance beyond the Jordan, [near] Jericho, eastward, at the [sun]-rising.”
Izizwe ezimbili lengxenye yesizwe zemukele ilifa lazo nganeno kweJordani, eJeriko, empumalanga, lapho okuphuma khona ilanga.
16 And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
INkosi yasikhuluma kuMozisi isithi:
17 “These [are] the names of the men who give the inheritance of the land to you: Eleazar the priest and Joshua son of Nun.
La ngamabizo amadoda azalabela ilizwe libe yilifa: UEleyazare umpristi loJoshuwa indodana kaNuni.
18 And one prince—you take one prince from a tribe to give the land by inheritance.
Njalo lizathatha isiphathamandla kuleso lalesosizwe ukwehlukanisa ilizwe libe yilifa.
19 And these [are] the names of the men: of the tribe of Judah, Caleb son of Jephunneh;
Lala ngamabizo amadoda: Esizweni sakoJuda, uKalebi indodana kaJefune.
20 and of the tribe of the sons of Simeon, Shemuel son of Aminihud;
Lesizweni sabantwana bakoSimeyoni, uShemuweli indodana kaAmihudi.
21 of the tribe of Benjamin, Elidad son of Chislon;
Esizweni sakoBhenjamini, uElidadi indodana kaKisiloni.
22 and a prince of the tribe of the sons of Dan, Bukki son of Jogli;
Lesizweni sabantwana bakoDani, isiphathamandla uBuki indodana kaJogili.
23 of the sons of Joseph, a prince of the tribe of the sons of Manasseh, Hanniel son of Ephod;
Ebantwaneni bakoJosefa, esizweni sabantwana bakoManase, isiphathamandla uHaniyeli indodana kaEfodi.
24 and a prince of the tribe of the sons of Ephraim, Kemuel son of Shiphtan;
Lesizweni sabantwana bakoEfrayimi, isiphathamandla uKemuweli indodana kaShifitani.
25 and a prince of the tribe of the sons of Zebulun, Elizaphan son of Parnach;
Lesizweni sabantwana bakoZebuluni, isiphathamandla uElizafani indodana kaParinaki.
26 and a prince of the tribe of the sons of Issachar, Paltiel son of Azzan;
Lesizweni sabantwana bakoIsakari, isiphathamandla uPalitiyeli indodana kaAzani.
27 and a prince of the tribe of the sons of Asher, Ahihud son of Shelomi;
Lesizweni sabantwana bakoAsheri, isiphathamandla uAhiyudi indodana kaShelomi.
28 and a prince of the tribe of the sons of Naphtali, Pedahel son of Ammihud.”
Lesizweni sabantwana bakoNafithali, isiphathamandla uPedaheli indodana kaAmihudi.
29 These [are] those whom YHWH has commanded to give the sons of Israel inheritance in the land of Canaan.
Yibo labo iNkosi eyabalaya ukwehlukanisela abantwana bakoIsrayeli ilifa elizweni leKhanani.
