Joshua 13
1 When Joshua was very old, Yahweh said to him, “Joshua, you are now an old man, but there is still a lot of land [for your army] to capture.
Da Josua var blevet gammel og til Aars, sagde HERREN til ham: »Du er blevet gammel og til Aars, og der er endnu saare meget tilbage af Landet at indtage.
2 Here is a list of the land that remains: The Geshur region and all the area where the Philistia people-group live;
Dette er det Land, som er tilbage: Hele Filisternes Landomraade og alle Gesjuriterne,
3 the area where the Canaan people-group live, from the Shihor River [in the south] at the [eastern] border of Egypt, to Ekron [city] in the north; the rulers of the five [cities] of Gaza, Ashdod, Ashkelon, Gath, and Ekron; the area where the Avva people-group live,
Landet fra Sjihor østen for Ægypten indtil Ekrons Landemærke i Nord — det regnes til Kana'anæerne — de fem Filisterfyrster i Gaza, Asdod, Askalon, Gat og Ekron, desuden Avviterne
4 which is south of the area where the Canaan people-group live;
mod Syd, hele Kana'anæerlandet fra Meara, som tilhører Zidonierne, indtil Afek og til Amoriternes Landemærke,
5 the area where the Gebal people-group live; and all the Lebanon area east of Baal-Gad [city] at the bottom of Hermon Mountain, as far as Lebo-Hamath.
og det Land, som mod Øst grænser til Libanon fra Ba'al-Gad ved Hermonbjergets Fod til Egnen hen imod Hamat.
6 All the people of the Sidon people-group live in the hilly area from Lebanon to Misrephoth-Maim, but I will force them to leave that area before you Israelis arrive there. Be sure to give that area to the Israeli people when you divide the land among them, like I told you to do.
Alle Indbyggerne i Bjerglandet fra Libanon til Misrefot Majim, alle Zidonierne, vil jeg drive bort foran Israeliterne. Tildel kun Israel det som Ejendom, saaledes som jeg har paalagt dig.
7 Divide all that land among the nine Israeli tribes and half of the tribe of Manasseh, [the tribes that do not have land on the east side of the Jordan River].”
Udskift derfor dette Land som Ejendom til de halvtiende Stammer.« Manasses halve Stamme
8 Half of the tribe of Manasseh and the tribes of Reuben and Gad had already been told what land they would receive, because Moses, the man who served Yahweh [well], had already assigned to them the land on the east side of the Jordan [River].
saavel som Rubeniterne og Gaditerne havde nemlig faaet deres Arvelod, som Moses gav dem hinsides Jordan, paa Østsiden, saaledes som HERRENS Tjener Moses gav dem,
9 Their land extended from Aroer [town] at the Arnon River gorge to the town in the middle of the gorge. It included the whole plain from Medeba [town south] to Dibon [town].
fra Aroer ved Arnonflodens Bred og Byen midt nede i Dalen, hele Højsletten fra Medeba til Dibon,
10 All the towns ruled by King Sihon were in that area. The land extended to where the Ammon people-group lived.
alle de Byer, som havde tilhørt Amoriterkongen Sihon, der herskede i Hesjbon, indtil Ammoniternes Landemærke,
11 The Gilead area was also there, and the regions where the people of the Geshur and Maacah people-groups lived, and all of Hermon Mountain and all the Bashan region [south] to Salecah.
fremdeles Gilead og Gesjuriternes og Ma'akatiternes Landemærke, hele Hermonbjerget og hele Basan indtil Salka,
12 All the land ruled by Og, the king who ruled the Bashan [region], was in that land. Og was one of the last descendants of Repha; previously he had ruled in Ashtaroth and Edrei [cities], but [the armies of] Moses had defeated their armies and had taken their land from them.
hele det Rige, der havde tilhørt Og af Basan, som herskede i Asjtarot og Edre'i, den sidste, der var tilbage af Refaiterne; Moses havde overvundet dem alle og drevet dem bort.
13 But the Israelis did not force the people of the Geshur and Maacah [people-groups] to leave their land, so they still live among the Israeli people.
Men Israeliterne drev ikke Gesjuriterne og Ma'akatiterne bort, saa at Gesjur og Ma'akat bor iblandt Israel den Dag i Dag.
14 The tribe of Levi was the only tribe that did not get any land. Instead, just like Yahweh promised, they continued to receive [food from] the sacrifices that were given to Yahweh, the God whom the Israelis [worship], the sacrifices that were burned [on the sacred altar].
Kun Levis Stamme gav han ingen Arvelod; HERREN, Israels Gud, er hans Arvelod, saaledes som han tilsagde ham.
15 Moses had allotted land to each clan in the tribe of Reuben.
Moses gav Rubeniternes Stamme Land, Slægt for Slægt,
16 Their land extended from Aroer [town] near the Arnon River gorge to Medeba [town]. That included all of the plain [that is near Medeba] and the town in the middle of the gorge.
og de fik deres Omraade fra Aroer ved Arnonflodens Bred og Byen midt nede i Dalen, hele Højsletten indtil
17 It also included Heshbon [city] and all the nearby towns on the plain—Dibon, Bamioth-Baal, Beth-Baal-Meon,
Hesjbon og alle de Byer, som ligger paa Højsletten, Dibon, Bamot-Ba'al, Bet-Ba'al-Meon,
18 Jahaz, Kedemoth, Mephaath,
Jaza, Kedemot, Mefa'at,
19 Kiriathaim, Sibmah, Zereth-Shahar on the hill overlooking the valley,
Kirjatajim, Sibma, Zeret-Sjahar paa Dalbjerget,
20 Beth-Peor, the hills in the Pisgah area, and Beth-Jeshimoth.
Bet-Peor ved Pisgas Skrænter. Bet-Jesjimot
21 That land included all the towns on the plain and all the area that King Sihon had previously ruled. But [the army of] Moses had defeated him and the rulers of the Midian people-group: Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur, and Reba. The armies of all those rulers fought battles along with the army of Sihon, and they lived in that country.
og alle de andre Byer paa Højsletten og hele det Rige, der havde tilhørt Amoriterkongen Sihon, som herskede i Hesjbon, hvem Moses havde overvundet tillige med Midjans Fyrster Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur og Reba, der var Sihons Lydkonger og boede i Landet;
22 The Israeli army killed many people during those battles, including Balaam, [the prophet] from Beor, who tried to use magic to predict/tell what would happen in the future.
ogsaa Sandsigeren Bileam, Beors Søn, havde Israeliterne dræbt med Sværdet sammen med de andre af dem, der blev slaaet ihjel.
23 The [western] boundary of the land that was allotted to the clans of the tribe of Reuben was the Jordan [River].
Rubeniternes Grænse blev Jordan; den var Grænseskel. Det var Rubeniternes Arvelod efter deres Slægter, de nævnte Byer med Landsbyer.
24 Moses also allotted some land to each clan in the tribe of Gad.
Og Moses gav Gads Stamme, Gaditerne, Land, Slægt for Slægt,
25 Their land included the Jazer [area] and all the towns of the Gilead [area]; half of the land where the Ammon people-group lived, as far as Aroer [town which is] near Rabbah [town];
og de fik følgende Landomraade: Ja'zer og alle Byerne i Gilead og Halvdelen af Ammoniternes Land indtil Aroer, som ligger østen for Rabba,
26 the area from Heshbon [city] to Ramath-Mizpah and Betonim [towns; the area] from Mahanaim [town] to the Debir region;
og Landet fra Hesjbon til Ramat-Mizpe og Betonim, og fra Mahanajim til Lodebars Landemærke;
27 Beth-Haram, Beth-Nimrah, Succoth, and Zaphon [cities] in the valley; and the other area that King Sihon had ruled on the east side of the Jordan River. That area extended [north] to the southern end of Galilee Lake.
og i Lavningen Bet-Haram, Bet-Nimra, Sukkot og Zafon, Resten af Kong Sihon af Hesjbons Rige, med Jordan til Grænse, indtil Enden af Kinnerets Sø, hinsides Jordan, paa Østsiden.
28 All this land, including the towns and villages, was allotted to the tribe of Gad.
Det var Gaditernes Arvelod efter deres Slægter: de nævnte Byer med Landsbyer.
29 Moses also had allotted some of the land [on the east side of the Jordan River] to half of the tribe of Manasseh.
Og Moses gav Manasses halve Stamme Land, Slægt for Slægt;
30 Their land extended [north] from Mahanaim [city]. It included all the Bashan region, all the land that King Og had ruled, and all the towns in the Jair area in Bashan. Altogether that area included 60 towns.
og deres Landomraade strakte sig fra Mahanajim over hele Basan, hele Kong Og af Basans Rige og alle Ja'irs Teltbyer, som ligger i Basan, tresindstyve Byer,
31 Their area also included half of the Gilead region, and the cities of Ashtaroth and Edrei where King Og had ruled. All that area was allotted to the clans descended from Manasseh’s son Makir.
Halvdelen af Gilead og Asjtarot og Edre'i, Ogs Kongsbyer i Basan; det gav han Manasses Søn Makirs Sønner, Halvdelen af Makirs Sønner, Slægt for Slægt.
32 Moses had allotted to those tribes the land that was on the plain of the Moab [region], on the east side of the Jordan [River], across from Jericho.
Det er alt, hvad Moses udskiftede paa Moabs Sletter hinsides Jordan over for Jeriko, paa Østsiden.
33 But Moses did not allot any land to the tribe of Levi because Yahweh, the God whom we Israelis worship, promised that he himself would always provide for them.
Men Levis Stamme gav Moses ingen Arvelod; HERREN, Israels Gud, er deres Arvelod, saaledes som han tilsagde dem.
