Numbers 34
1 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
INkosi yasikhuluma kuMozisi isithi:
2 Command the children of Israel, and say unto them, When ye come into the land of Canaan, (this is the land that shall fall unto you for an inheritance, even the land of Canaan according to the borders thereof, )
Laya abantwana bakoIsrayeli uthi kubo: Lapho lingena elizweni leKhanani, leli lizakuba yilizwe elizawela kini libe yilifa, ilizwe leKhanani, ngokwemingcele yalo.
3 then your south quarter shall be from the wilderness of Zin along by the side of Edom, and your south border shall be from the end 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 your border shall turn about southward of the ascent of Akrabbim, and pass along to Zin: and the goings out thereof shall be southward of Kadesh-barnea; and it shall go forth to Hazar-addar, and pass along 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 shall turn about from Azmon unto the brook of Egypt, and the goings out thereof shall be at the sea.
Lomngcele uzajika uvela eAzimoni uye esifuleni seGibhithe; lokuphuma kwawo kuzakuba selwandle.
6 And for the western border, ye shall have the great sea and the border [thereof]: this shall be your west border.
Mayelana lomngcele wentshonalanga, ulwandle olukhulu luzakuba ngumngcele wenu; lona luzakuba ngumngcele wenu ngentshonalanga.
7 And this shall be your north border: from the great sea ye shall mark out for you mount Hor:
Lalokhu kuzakuba ngumngcele wenu wenyakatho: Kusukela elwandle olukhulu lizazidwebela intaba yeHori;
8 from mount Hor ye shall mark out unto the entering in of Hamath; and the goings out of the border shall be at Zedad:
kusukela entabeni yeHori lizadweba umngcele oya ekungeneni kweHamathi, lokuphuma komngcele kuye eZedadi.
9 and the border shall go forth to Ziphron, and the goings out thereof shall be at Hazar-enan: this shall be your north border.
Lomngcele uzaphuma uye eZifroni, lokuphuma kwawo kuzakuba eHazari-Enani. Lo uzakuba ngumngcele wenu wenyakatho.
10 And ye shall mark out your east border from Hazar-enan to Shepham:
Njalo lizazidwebela umngcele wenu wempumalanga kusukela eHazari-Enani kusiya eShefamu;
11 and the border shall go down from Shepham to Riblah, on the east side of Ain; and the border shall go down, and shall reach unto the side 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 shall go down to Jordan, and the goings out thereof shall be at the Salt Sea: this shall be your land according to the borders thereof round about.
Umngcele uzakwehlela-ke eJordani, lokuphuma kwawo kuzakuba solwandle lwetshwayi. Leli lizakuba yilizwe lenu ngemingcele yalo inhlangothi zonke.
13 And Moses commanded the children of Israel, saying, This is the land which ye shall inherit by lot, which the LORD hath commanded to give unto the nine tribes, and to the half 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 children of Reuben according to their fathers’ houses, and the tribe of the children of Gad according to their fathers’ houses, have received, and the half 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 tribe have received their inheritance beyond the Jordan at Jericho eastward, toward the sunrising.
Izizwe ezimbili lengxenye yesizwe zemukele ilifa lazo nganeno kweJordani, eJeriko, empumalanga, lapho okuphuma khona ilanga.
16 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
INkosi yasikhuluma kuMozisi isithi:
17 These are the names of the men which shall divide the land unto you for inheritance: Eleazar the priest, and Joshua the son of Nun.
La ngamabizo amadoda azalabela ilizwe libe yilifa: UEleyazare umpristi loJoshuwa indodana kaNuni.
18 And ye shall take one prince of every tribe, to divide the land for 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 the son of Jephunneh.
Lala ngamabizo amadoda: Esizweni sakoJuda, uKalebi indodana kaJefune.
20 And of the tribe of the children of Simeon, Shemuel the son of Ammihud.

21 Of the tribe of Benjamin, Elidad the son of Chislon.
Esizweni sakoBhenjamini, uElidadi indodana kaKisiloni.
22 And of the tribe of the children of Dan a prince, Bukki the son of Jogli.
Lesizweni sabantwana bakoDani, isiphathamandla uBuki indodana kaJogili.
23 Of the children of Joseph: of the tribe of the children of Manasseh a prince, Hanniel the son of Ephod:

24 and of the tribe of the children of Ephraim a prince, Kemuel the son of Shiphtan.
Lesizweni sabantwana bakoEfrayimi, isiphathamandla uKemuweli indodana kaShifitani.
25 And of the tribe of the children of Zebulun a prince, Elizaphan the son of Parnach.
Lesizweni sabantwana bakoZebuluni, isiphathamandla uElizafani indodana kaParinaki.
26 And of the tribe of the children of Issachar a prince, Paltiel the son of Azzan.
Lesizweni sabantwana bakoIsakari, isiphathamandla uPalitiyeli indodana kaAzani.
27 And of the tribe of the children of Asher a prince, Ahihud the son of Shelomi.
Lesizweni sabantwana bakoAsheri, isiphathamandla uAhiyudi indodana kaShelomi.
28 And of the tribe of the children of Naphtali a prince, Pedahel the son of Ammihud.
Lesizweni sabantwana bakoNafithali, isiphathamandla uPedaheli indodana kaAmihudi.
29 These are they whom the LORD commanded to divide the inheritance unto the children of Israel in the land of Canaan.
Yibo labo iNkosi eyabalaya ukwehlukanisela abantwana bakoIsrayeli ilifa elizweni leKhanani.
