Joshua 13
1 Now Joshua was old and well stricken in years. YHWH said to him, "You are old and advanced in years, and there remains yet very much land to be possessed.
Ɛberɛ a Yosua bɔɔ akɔkoraa no, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Worebɔ akɔkoraa nso nsase pii wɔ hɔ a ɛsɛ sɛ woko di so.
2 This is the land that still remains: all the regions of the Philistines, and all the Geshurites;
“Ɛsɛ sɛ nnipa no tena Filistifoɔ ne Gesur,
3 from the Shihor, which is before Egypt, even to the border of Ekron northward, which is counted as Canaanite; the five lords of the Philistines; the Gazites, and the Ashdodites, the Ashkelonites, the Gittites, and the Ekronites; also the Avvim,
“nsase a na ɛyɛ Kanaanfoɔ dea no so. Saa asase yi firi asuo Sihor a ɛda Misraim ɛhyeɛ so a ɛtene fa atifi fam kɔsi Ekron ɛhyeɛ so,
4 on the south; all the land of the Canaanites, and from Arah that belongs to the Sidonians to Aphek, to the border of the Amorites;
a Filistifoɔ nkuropɔn enum a ɛyɛ Gasa, Asdod, Askelon, Gat ne Ekron nso ka ho. Awifoɔ asase a ɛda anafoɔ fam no nso, wɔnnko nnii so. Atifi fam nso, wɔnnko nnii saa nsase yi so; Kanaan asase nyinaa a Meara a ɛyɛ Sidonfoɔ dea no, de kɔsi Afek, kɔduru Amorifoɔ ɛhyeɛ so
5 and the land of the Gebalites, and all Lebanon, toward the sunrise, from Baal Gad under Mount Hermon to Lebo Hamath;
ne Gebalfoɔ asase ne Lebanon nyinaa wɔ apueeɛ fam, de firi Baal-Gad a ɛda Hermon bepɔ ase, de kɔsi Hamat fam.
6 all the inhabitants of the hill country from Lebanon to Misrephoth Maim, even all the Sidonians; them will I drive out from before the children of Israel: only you allocate it to Israel for an inheritance, as I have commanded you.
“Mmepɔ asase a ɛfiri Lebanon kɔsi Misrefot-Maim nyinaa a Sidonfoɔ nsase nyinaa ka ho. Mɛtu saa nnipa no nyinaa afiri asase no so na mede ama Israelfoɔ. Enti hwɛ na fa saa asase no ma Israelfoɔ sɛ agyapadeɛ sononko sɛdeɛ mahyɛ wo no.
7 Now therefore divide this land for an inheritance to the nine tribes and the half-tribe of Manasseh: from the Jordan as far as the Great Sea toward the setting of the sun, you are to give it; the Great Sea will be the boundary.
Fa saa asase yi nyinaa sɛ Israelfoɔ agyapadeɛ wɔ ɛberɛ a worekyekyɛ mu ama mmusuakuo nkron no ne Manase abusua fa no.”
8 But to the two tribes and to the half-tribe of Manasseh, with him the Reubenites and the Gadites received their inheritance, which Moses gave them, beyond the Jordan eastward, even as Moses the servant of YHWH gave them:
Manase abusua no mu fa ne Rubenfoɔ ne Gadfoɔ deɛ, na wɔanya wɔn agyapadeɛ wɔ Yordan apueeɛ fam, ɛfiri sɛ na Mose a ɔyɛ Awurade ɔsomfoɔ no de saa asase no ama wɔn dada.
9 from Aroer, that is on the edge of the Valley of the Arnon, and the city that is in the middle of the valley, and all the plain of Medeba to Dibon;
Wɔn asase no firi Aroer a ɛda Arnon Subɔnhwa no ano (ne kuro a ɛda nsuka no mfimfini) de kɔ ɛserɛ a ɛtoa Medeba so kɔsi Dibon.
10 and all the cities of Sihon king of the Amorites, who reigned in Heshbon, to the border of the people of Ammon;
Amorifoɔhene Sihon a ɔdii adeɛ wɔ Hesbon kɔsi Amonfoɔ ɛhyeɛ so nkuro nyinaa nso ka ho.
11 and Gilead, and the border of the Geshurites and Maacathites, and all Mount Hermon, and all Bashan to Salecah;
Gilead, asase a ɛwɔ Gesur ne Maaka ahemman mu, Bepɔ Hermon nyinaa, Basan nyinaa de kɔsi Saleka ka ho,
12 all the kingdom of Og in Bashan, who reigned in Ashtaroth and in Edrei (the same was left of the remnant of the Rephaim); for Moses attacked these, and drove them out.
ɛnna Basanhene Og a ɔdii ɔhene wɔ Astarot ne Edrei nsase nyinaa nso ka ho. Ɔhene Og yɛ Rafatni a ɔtwa toɔ, ɛfiri sɛ na Mose ne wɔn ako apamo wɔn.
13 Nevertheless the children of Israel did not drive out the Geshurites, nor the Maacathites: but Geshur and Maacath dwell in the midst of Israel to this day.
Nanso, Israelfoɔ no antu Gesurfoɔ ne Maakafoɔ enti wɔtenaa Israelfoɔ no mu de bɛsi ɛnnɛ.
14 Only he gave no inheritance to the tribe of Levi. The offerings of YHWH, the God of Israel, made by fire are his inheritance, as he spoke to him.
Na Lewi abusuakuo no deɛ, wamma wɔn agyapadeɛ biara. Wɔn agyapadeɛ firi afɔrebɔdeɛ a wɔhye wɔ afɔrebukyia so ma Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn no.
15 Moses gave to the tribe of the descendants of Reuben according to their families.
Mose de saa beaeɛ yi maa mmusua a ɛwɔ Ruben abusuakuo mu.
16 Their border was from Aroer, that is on the edge of the Valley of the Arnon, and the city that is in the middle of the valley, and all the plain by Medeba;
Wɔn asase no firi Aroer a ɛda Arnon Subɔnhwa no ano (ne kuro a ɛda nsuka no mfimfini) de kɔ ɛserɛ a ɛtoa Medeba so.
17 Heshbon, and all its cities that are in the plain; Dibon, Bamoth Baal, Beth Baal Meon,
Nkuro ne nkuraase a ɛkeka hoɔ nie: Hesbon ne nkuro a ɛdeda ɛserɛ so te sɛ Dibon, Bamot-Baal ne Bet-Baal-Meon,
18 Jahaz, Kedemoth, Mephaath,
Yahas, Kedemot, Mefaat,
19 Kiriathaim, Sibmah, Zereth Shahar in the mount of the valley,
Kiriataim, Sibma ne Seret-Sahar, a ɛdeda bɔnhwa no kokoɔ so,
20 Beth Peor, the slopes of Pisgah, Beth Jeshimoth,
Bet-Peor, Pisga nsianeɛ mu ne Bet-Yesimot.
21 all the cities of the plain, and all the kingdom of Sihon king of the Amorites, who reigned in Heshbon, whom Moses struck with the chiefs of Midian, Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur, and Reba, the princes of Sihon, who lived in the land.
Nkuro a ɛwɔ tata so nyinaa ne Sihon ahemman nyinaa nso ka Ruben asase no ho. Sihon yɛ Amorifoɔhene a na ɔdi adeɛ wɔ Hesbon, deɛ Mose kumm no ne Midian ahemfo a wɔn ne Ewi, Rekem, Sur, Hur, Reba ne ahenemma a wɔwɔ mpɔtam hɔ a wɔne Sihon yɛ baako.
22 The children of Israel also killed Balaam, the son of Beor, the soothsayer, with the sword, among the rest of their slain.
Israelfoɔ no kumm Beor babarima nkonyaayifoɔ bi a na wɔfrɛ no Balaam.
23 The border of the descendants of Reuben was the bank of the Jordan. This was the inheritance of the descendants of Reuben according to their families, the cities and its villages.
Yordan Asubɔnten no yɛ Ruben asase no ɛhyeɛ wɔ atɔeɛ fam. Wɔde nkuro ne nkuraase a ɛwɔ saa beaeɛ yi maa mmusua a ɛwɔ Ruben abusuakuo no mu sɛ wɔn agyapadeɛ.
24 Moses gave to the tribe of Gad, to the descendants of Gad, according to their families.
Mose de saa asase yi maa mmusua a ɛwɔ Gad abusuakuo mu:
25 Their border was Jazer, and all the cities of Gilead, and half the land of the people of Ammon, to Aroer that is before Rabbah;
Wɔn asase no yɛ Yaser, Gilead nkuro nyinaa, ne Amon asase no fa, kɔsi Aroer kuro a ɛwɔ Raba atɔeɛ fam pɛɛ.
26 and from Heshbon to Ramath Mizpeh, and Betonim; and from Mahanaim to the border of Debir;
Na ɛfiri Hesbon de kɔsi Ramat-Mispe ne Betonim de firi Mahanaim de kɔsi Debir.
27 and in the valley, Beth Haram, Beth Nimrah, Succoth, and Zaphon, the rest of the kingdom of Sihon king of Heshbon, the Jordan's bank, to the uttermost part of the sea of Kinnereth beyond the Jordan eastward.
Bɔnhwa no mu na na Bet-Haram ne Bet-Nimra ne Sukot ne Safon ne Hesbonhene Sihon ahemman no nkaeɛ wɔ; Asubɔnten Yordan na na ɛyɛ atɔeɛ fam hɔ ɛhyeɛ na ɛtoa so de kɔsi Galilea ɛpo no mu.
28 This is the inheritance of the descendants of Gad according to their families, the cities and its villages.
Nkuro ne nkuraaseɛ a ɛwɔ saa beaeɛ yi na wɔde maa mmusua a ɛwɔ Gad abusuakuo mu sɛ wɔn agyapadeɛ.
29 Moses gave an inheritance to the half-tribe of Manasseh. It was for the half-tribe of the descendants of Manasseh according to their families.
Mose de saa beaeɛ yi maa mmusua a ɛwɔ Manase abusuakuo fa no mu.
30 Their border was from Mahanaim, all Bashan, all the kingdom of Og king of Bashan, and all the towns of Jair, which are in Bashan, sixty cities.
Na wɔn asase no firi Mahanaim, Basan nyinaa, ɔhene Og kane tete ahemman nyinaa ne nkuro aduosia a ɛwɔ Yair a ɛwɔ Basan no.
31 Half Gilead, Ashtaroth, and Edrei, the cities of the kingdom of Og in Bashan, were for the descendants of Makir the son of Manasseh, even for the half of the descendants of Makir according to their families.
Gilead fa ne ɔhene Og ahenkuro, Astarot ne Edrei ka ho. Wɔde yeinom nyinaa maa Makir a na ɔyɛ Manase babarima no asefoɔ.
32 These are the inheritances which Moses distributed in the plains of Moab, beyond the Jordan at Jericho, eastward.
Yeinom yɛ nkyekyɛmu a Mose yɛɛ ɛberɛ a na ɔwɔ Moab tata so, wɔ Asubɔnten Yordan akyi, Yeriko apueeɛ fam.
33 But to the tribe of Levi Moses gave no inheritance. YHWH, the God of Israel, is their inheritance, as he spoke to them.
Nanso, Mose amma Lewi abusuakuo no asase biara, ɛfiri sɛ, na Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn ahyɛ bɔ sɛ ɔno na ɔbɛyɛ wɔn agyapadeɛ.
