Joshua 12

1 The Israelis took control of the land that was east of the Jordan River, from the Arnon River gorge [in the south] to Hermon Mountain [in the north], including all the land on the eastern side of the Jordan [River] Valley. That land previously belonged to the two kings whose armies the Israelis defeated.

Ndị a bụ ndị eze ala ndị ahụ ndị Izrel lara nʼiyi, bụ ala ndị ahụ ha nwetara nʼakụkụ ọwụwa anyanwụ osimiri Jọdan. Obodo niile a lara nʼiyi bụ ndị dị site na ndagwurugwu iyi Anọn ruo nʼugwu Hemon ha na akụkụ ọwụwa anyanwụ Araba.

2 One of them was Sihon, the king of the Amor people-group. He lived in Heshbon [city] and ruled over the area from Aroer [town] along the Arnon River Gorge, north to the Jabbok River. His land started in the middle of the gorge, which was the border between his land and the land of the Ammon people-group. Sihon also ruled over [the southern] half of the Gilead region,

Saịhọn, eze ndị Amọrait, onye bi na Heshbọn. Ala ya gbatịrị site nʼAroea, nʼakụkụ ndagwurugwu Anọn, na nʼetiti ndagwurugwu iyi Anọn, ruo iyi Jabọk, nke bụ oke ala ụmụ Amọn. Ọkara ala Gilead, nke dị nʼugwu iyi Jabọk bụkwa ala ya.

3 and over the land on the eastern side of the Jordan [River] Valley, from Galilee Lake [south] to the Dead Sea. He also ruled over the land [east of the Dead Sea] from Beth-Jeshimoth south to the side of Pisgah Mountain.

Ọ bụkwa Saịhọn na-achị akụkụ ọwụwa anyanwụ Araba site nʼosimiri Kineret ruo nʼosimiri Araba (ya bụ, Osimiri Nnu), ruo Bet-Jeshimọt, gbadaakwa akụkụ ndịda ndịda ruo na mgbada ugwu Pisga.

4 The other king whom the Israeli army defeated was Og, the king of the Bashan [region]. He was the last of the descendants of [the giant] Rapha. He ruled that land, living alternately in Ashtaroth and Edrei [cities].

Ha merikwara Ọg, eze Bashan, onye bụ otu nʼime ndị eze ikpeazụ ndị agbụrụ Refaim. Isi alaeze ya dị nʼAshtarọt na Edrei.

5 He ruled over the area from Hermon Mountain and Salecah [in the north], and over all the Bashan area in the east, and to the borders of the kingdoms of Geshur and Maacah to the west. Og ruled [the northern] half of the Gilead region, as far as the border of the land ruled by King Sihon.

Ọ chịrị nʼugwu Hemon, Saleka, ala Bashan niile ruo nʼoke ha na ndị Geshua na Maaka nwere, nakwa ọkara nke Gilead, bụ oke ala Saịhọn, bụ eze Heshbọn.

6 Moses, the man who served Yahweh [well], and all the Israeli army defeated the armies of those kings. Then Moses gave that land to the tribes of Reuben and Gad and half of the tribe of Manasseh.

Ọ bụ Mosis onyeozi Onyenwe anyị, na ụmụ Izrel, lara eze abụọ ndị a nʼiyi. Mosis nyekwara ebo Ruben, na ebo Gad, na ọkara ebo Manase ala ha.

7 Joshua and the Israeli army also defeated kings who ruled over the land on the west side of the Jordan [River]. He gave that land to the Israeli people, dividing it among the other tribes. That land was between Baal-Gad [city] in the Lebanon Valley [in the far north all the way south] to Halak Mountain, which is near the land of the Edom people-group.

Ndị a bụ aha ndị eze niile Joshua na ụmụ Izrel meriri, nʼofe osimiri Jọdan, nʼakụkụ ọdịda anyanwụ, site na Baal-Gad nke dị na ndagwurugwu Lebanọn, ruo nʼugwu Halak nke dị na mgbago nʼụzọ Sia. Joshua nyere ebo Izrel niile ala ha ndị a dịka ihe nketa, nʼusoro dịka ebo ha si dị.

8 That land included the mountains, the western hilly area, the Jordan [River] Valley, the [western] slopes of the mountains, the desert [in Judea], and the Negev [desert in the south]. That whole area was the land where the Heth, Amor, Canaan, Periz, Hiv, and Jebus people-groups lived. The Israeli army defeated the armies of the kings of each of these cities:

Ala ndị ọzọ bụkwa ala ugwu ugwu ahụ, na ala dị na mgbada ugwu ọdịda anyanwụ, na ala Araba, na ala ndị dị na mgbada ugwu, na ọzara, nakwa Negev. Ndị a bụ ala ndị Het, na ndị Amọrait, na ndị Kenan, ndị Periz, na ndị Hiv, na ndị Jebus. Ndị a bụ ndị eze ahụ:
