Joshua 18
1 Then the whole assembly of the people of Israel met together at Shiloh. They set up the tent of meeting there and they conquered the land before them.
Isra’ilawa duka suka taru a Shilo suka kafa tenti inda za su dinga taruwa. Yanzu ƙasar tana ƙarƙashin mulkinsu,
2 There were still seven tribes among the people of Israel whose inheritance had not been assigned.
amma akwai sauran kabilu bakwai na Isra’ila waɗanda ba su samu rabon gādonsu ba tukuna.
3 Joshua said to the people of Israel, “How long will you put off going into the land that Yahweh, the God of your ancestors, has given you?
Saboda haka Yoshuwa ya ce wa Isra’ilawa, “Har yaushe za ku yi jinkirin shiga, ku mallaki ƙasar da Ubangiji Allah na iyayenku ya ba ku?
4 Appoint for yourselves three men from each tribe, and I will send them out. They will set out and survey the land up and down. They will write out a description of it with a view to their inheritances, and then they will come back to me.
Ku ba da mutum uku daga kowace kabila, ni kuwa in aike su, su zagaya dukan ƙasar su rubuta bayani game da ita, bisa ga yadda za a raba ta gādo ga kowace kabila, sa’an nan su dawo wurina.
5 They will divide it into seven sections. Judah will remain in their territory on the south, and the house of Joseph will continue in their territory in the north.
Za ku raba ƙasar kashi bakwai. Mutanen Yahuda za su ci gaba da kasancewa a wurin da suke a kudu, sai kuma mutanen Yusuf a wurin da suke a arewa.
6 You will describe the land in seven sections and bring the description here to me. I will cast lots for you here before Yahweh our God.
Bayan kun auna ƙasar, ku raba ta kashi bakwai, sai ku kawo mini taswirar ƙasar. Ni kuma in yi muku ƙuri’a a gaban Ubangiji Allahnmu.
7 The Levites have no portion among you, for the priesthood of Yahweh is their inheritance. Gad, Reuben, and the half tribe of Manasseh have received their inheritance, beyond Jordan. This is the inheritance that Moses the servant of Yahweh gave them.”
Lawiyawa ba su da rabo a cikinku, domin aikin firistocin da suke yi wa Ubangiji shi ne gādonsu. Gad, Ruben da rabin kabilar Manasse kuwa sun riga sun samu gādonsu a gabashin gefen Urdun, Musa bawan Ubangiji ya ba su.”
8 So the men got up and went. Joshua commanded those who went to write the description of the land, saying, “Go up and down in the land and write a description of it and return to me. I will cast lots for you here before Yahweh at Shiloh.”
Da mutanen za su kama hanya su je su zāna yadda ƙasar take, Yoshuwa ya umarce su cewa, “Ku je ku ga yadda ƙasar take. Sa’an nan ku dawo wurina, zan yi muku ƙuri’a a nan Shilo a gaban Ubangiji.”
9 The men left and walked up and down in the land and wrote a description of it in a scroll by its cities in seven sections, listing the cities in each section. Then they returned to Joshua in the camp at Shiloh.
Mutanen kuwa suka tafi suka bi ta cikin ƙasar, suka bayyana yadda take a rubuce, gari-gari, kashi bakwai, suka koma wurin Yoshuwa a Shilo.
10 Then Joshua cast lots for them at Shiloh before Yahweh. It was there that Joshua assigned the land to the people of Israel, and to each was given his portion of the land.
Sai Yoshuwa ya yi musu ƙuri’a a gaban Ubangiji, a nan ne ya raba wa Isra’ilawa ƙasar bisa ga yadda aka raba su kabila-kabila.
11 The assignment of land for the tribe of Benjamin clan by clan. The territory of their assigned land was located between the descendants of Judah and the descendants of Joseph.
Ƙuri’ar kabilar Benyamin bisa ga iyalansu. Rabonsu ya kama daga ƙasar da take tsakanin kabilar Yahuda da ta Yusuf.
12 On the north side, their border began at the Jordan. The border went up to the ridge north of Jericho, and then up through the hill country westward. There it reached the wilderness of Beth Aven.
Daga gefen arewa, iyakarsu ta kama ne daga Urdun, ta wuce arewa a gangaren Yeriko, ta nufi yamma cikin ƙasar kan tudu, ta fito a jejin Bet-Awen.
13 From there the border passed along south in the direction of Luz (the same place as Bethel). Then the border went down to Ataroth Addar, by the mountain that lies south of Beth Horon.
Daga can ta ƙetare zuwa gangaren Luz a kudu (wato, Betel), ta wuce zuwa Atarot Adda a tudun arewa na kwarin Bet-Horon.
14 The boundary then went in another direction: On the western side it turned toward the south, heading toward the mountain across from Beth Horon. This boundary ended at Kiriath Baal (that is, Kiriath Jearim), a city that belonged to the tribe of Judah. This formed the border on the western side.
Daga tudun da yake fuskantar Bet-Horon a kudu, iyakar ta juya kudu ta gefen yamma ta ɓullo a Kiriyat Ba’al (wato, Kiriyat Yeyarim), birnin Yahuda. Wannan ita ce iyakar a wajen yamma.
15 The south side began just outside of Kiriath Jearim. The border went from there to Ephron, to the spring of the waters of Nephtoah.
A gefen kudu kuwa, iyakar ta fara daga ƙauyukan Kiriyat Yeyarim wajen yamma sai ta miƙe zuwa maɓuɓɓugar ruwan Neftowa.
16 The boundary then went down to the border of the mountain which was opposite the Valley of Ben Hinnom, which was at the northern end of the Valley of Rephaim. It then went down to the Valley of Hinnom, south of the slope of the Jebusites, and continued down to En Rogel.
Iyakar ta gangara zuwa gefen dutsen da yake fuskantar Kwarin Ben Hinnom, wanda yake arewa da Kwarin Refayim. Ta ci gaba ta gangara ta Kwarin Hinnom ta yi kudu kusa da birnin Yebusiyawa har zuwa En Rogel.
17 It turned northward, going in the direction of En Shemesh, and from there it went out to Geliloth, which was opposite the ascent of Adummim. Then it went down to the Stone of Bohan the son of Reuben.
Sai ta nausa ta yi wajen arewa, zuwa En Shemesh, ta ci gaba zuwa Gelilot, wanda yake fuskantar hawan Adummim. Daga can ta gangara zuwa Dutsen Bohan, ɗan Ruben.
18 It passed on to the north of the shoulder of Beth Arabah and down to the Arabah.
Sai ta wuce ta yi arewancin gangaren Bet-Araba, ta wuce har zuwa cikin Araba.
19 The border passed on to the north shoulder of Beth Hoglah. The border ended at the north bay of the Salt Sea, at the southern end of the Jordan. This was the boundary on the south.
Sa’an nan ta wuce zuwa arewancin gangaren Bet-Hogla ta kuma ɓulla a arewancin gaɓar Tekun Gishiri, a bakin Urdun a kudu. Wannan ita ce iyakar a wajen kudu.
20 The Jordan formed its border on the eastern side. This was the inheritance of the tribe of Benjamin, and it was given clan by clan, border after border, all around.
Urdun shi ne iyaka a wajen gabas. Waɗannan su ne iyakokin yankin ƙasar da iyalan kabilar Benyamin suka gāda.
21 Now the cities of the tribe of Benjamin, clan by clan, had these cities: Jericho, Beth Hoglah, Emek Keziz,
Waɗannan su ne garuruwan da kabilar Benyamin suke da su na gādo. Yeriko, Bet-Hogla, Emek Keziz,
22 Beth Arabah, Zemaraim, Bethel,
Bet-Araba, Zemarayim, Betel,
23 Avvim, Parah, Ophrah,
Awwim, Fara, Ofra,
24 Kephar Ammoni, Ophni, and Geba. There were twelve cities, including their villages.
Kefar Ammoni, Ofni da Geba, garuruwa goma sha biyu ke nan da ƙauyukansu.
25 There were also the cities of Gibeon, Ramah, Beeroth,
Akwai kuma Gibeyon, Rama, Beyerot,

27 Rekem, Irpeel, Taralah,
Rekem, Irfeyel, Tarala,
28 Zelah, Haeleph, Jebus (the same as Jerusalem), Gibeah, and Kiriath. There were fourteen cities, including their villages. This was the inheritance of Benjamin for their clans.
