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.
Hangafoonni maatii Lewwotaa Eleʼaazaar lubichatti, Iyyaasuu ilma Nuunittii fi hangafoota maatiiwwan gosoota Israaʼel kaanitti dhiʼaatanii
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."
Shiiloo Kanaʼaan keessatti argamtu sana keessatti, “Waaqayyo akka isin magaalaa nu keessa jiraannu lafa tikaa kan horii keenyaaf taʼu wajjin nuu kennitan karaa Museetiin ajajee ture” jedhaniin.
3 The children of Israel gave to the Levites out of their inheritance, according to the commandment of YHWH, these cities with their suburbs.
Kanaafuu Israaʼeloonni akkuma Waaqayyo ajajetti dhaala ofii isaanii keessaa magaalaawwan kanneenii fi lafa tikaa Lewwotaaf kennan.
4 The lot came out for the families of the Kohathites. The descendants of Aaron the priest, who were of the Levites, had thirteen cities by lot out of the tribe of Judah, out of the tribe of the Simeonites, and out of the tribe of Benjamin.

12 But they gave the fields of the city and its villages to Caleb the son of Jephunneh for his possession.
Lafa qotiisaa fi gandoota naannoo magaalattii jiran garuu Kaaleb ilma Yefuneetiif handhuuraa godhanii kennan.
13 To the descendants of Aaron the priest they gave Hebron with its suburbs, the city of refuge for the manslayer, Libnah with its suburbs,

41 All the cities of the Levites in the midst of the possession of the children of Israel were forty-eight cities with their suburbs.
Magaalaawwan Lewwotaa kanneen biyya Israaʼeloonni dhuunfatan keessatti argaman lafa tikaa wajjin walumaa galatti afurtamii saddeet turan.
42 Each of these cities included their suburbs around them. It was this way with all these cities.
Tokkoon tokkoon magaalaawwan kanneenii naannoo isaaniitii lafa tikaa qabu turan; magaalaawwan hundinuu akkanuma.
43 So YHWH gave to Israel all the land which he swore to give to their fathers. They possessed it, and lived in it.
Kanaafuu Waaqayyo biyya abbootii isaaniitiif kennuuf kakate hunda saba Israaʼeliif kenne; isaanis biyya sana qabatanii achi jiraatan.
44 YHWH gave them rest all around, according to all that he swore to their fathers. Not a man of all their enemies stood before them. YHWH delivered all their enemies into their hand.
Waaqayyo akkuma abbootii isaaniitiif kakate sana karaa hundaan boqonnaa isaanii kenne. Diinni isaanii tokko iyyuu fuula isaanii dura dhaabachuu hin dandeenye; Waaqayyo diinota isaanii hunda dabarsee harka isaaniitti kenne.
45 Nothing failed of any good thing which YHWH had spoken to the house of Israel. All came to pass.
Waadaa gaarii Waaqayyo mana Israaʼeliif gale keessaa tokko iyyuu hin hafne; hundinuu guutameera.
