< Joshua 21 >

1 Then the heads of ancestral houses of the Levites came near to Eleazar the priest, and to Joshua the son of Nun, and to the heads of ancestral houses of the tribes of the children of Israel.
Ary ny lohan’ ny fianakaviana tamin’ ny Levita dia nanatona an’ i Eleazara mpisorona sy Josoa, zanak’ i Nona, ary ny lohan’ ny fianakaviana tamin’ ny firenen’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely
2 They spoke to them at Shiloh in the land of Canaan, saying, "YHWH commanded Moses to give us cities to dwell in, with their suburbs for our livestock."
ka niteny taminy tao Silo tao amin’ ny tany Kanana hoe: Jehovah efa nampandidy an’ i Mosesy mba homena tanàna hitoerana izahay sy tany manodidina azy ho an’ ny biby fiompinay.
3 The children of Israel gave to the Levites out of their inheritance, according to the commandment of YHWH, these cities with their suburbs.

Tsy nisy latsata na dia kely akory aza ny zava-tsoa rehetra izay nolazain’ i Jehovah tamin’ ny taranak’ Isiraely; fa tanteraka avokoa izany rehetra izany.
