Joshua 13
1 Now Joshua was old and advanced in years; and the LORD said to him, Thou art old and advanced in years, and there remaineth yet very much land to be possessed.
UJoshuwa wayesemdala eleminyaka eminengi. INkosi yasisithi kuye: Usumdala, uleminyaka eminengi, kusasele ilizwe elikhulu kakhulu ukudla ilifa lalo.
2 This is the land that yet remaineth: all the borders of the Philistines, and all Geshuri,
Yileli ilizwe eliseleyo: Yonke imingcele yamaFilisti, leGeshuri yonke,
3 From Sihor, which is before Egypt, even to the borders of Ekron northward, which is counted to the Canaanite: five lords of the Philistines; the Gazathites, and the Ashdothites, the Eshkalonites, the Gittites, and the Ekronites; also the Avites:
kusukela eShihori eliphambi kweGibhithe, kusiya emngceleni weEkhironi enyakatho, elibalelwa kumaKhanani; ababusi abahlanu bamaFilisti, abeGaza, labeAshidodi, abeAshikeloni, abeGathi, labeEkhironi, labeAvi,
4 From the south, all the land of the Canaanites, and Mearah that is beside the Sidonians, to Aphek, to the borders of the Amorites:
kusukela eningizimu, ilizwe lonke lamaKhanani, leMeyara elingelamaSidoni, kuze kufike eAfeki, kuze kube semngceleni wamaAmori,
5 And the land of the Giblites, and all Lebanon, toward the sunrising, from Baalgad under mount Hermon to the entrance into Hamath.
lelizwe lamaGebali, leLebhanoni lonke, kusiya empumalanga, kusukela eBhali-Gadi ngaphansi kwentaba yeHermoni, kusiya ekungeneni kweHamathi.
6 And the inhabitants of the hill country from Lebanon to Misrephothmaim, and all the Sidonians, them will I drive out from before the children of Israel: only divide thou it by lot to the Israelites for an inheritance, as I have commanded thee.
Bonke abakhileyo ezintabeni, kusukela eLebhanoni kusiya eMisirefothi-Mayimi, wonke amaSidoni, mina ngizabaxotsha elifeni phambi kwabantwana bakoIsrayeli. Kuphela ulabele uIsrayeli ngenkatho libe yilifa, njengoba ngikulayile.
7 Now therefore divide this land for an inheritance to the nine tribes, and the half tribe of Manasseh,
Ngakho-ke yehlukanisa ilizwe leli libe yilifa ezizweni eziyisificamunwemunye lengxenye yesizwe sakoManase.
8 With whom the Reubenites and the Gadites have received their inheritance, which Moses gave them, beyond Jordan eastward, even as Moses the servant of the LORD gave them;
Kanye labo abakoRubeni labakoGadi bemukela ilifa labo, uMozisi owabanika lona, ngaphetsheya kweJordani ngempumalanga, njengalokho uMozisi inceku yeNkosi wabanika:
9 From Aroer, that is upon the bank of the river Arnon, and the city that is in the midst of the river, and all the plain of Medeba to Dibon;
Kusukela eAroweri esekhunjini lwesifula seArinoni, lomuzi ophakathi kwesifula, lamagceke wonke eMedeba kuze kube seDiboni,
10 And all the cities of Sihon king of the Amorites, who reigned in Heshbon, to the border of the children of Ammon;
lemizi yonke kaSihoni inkosi yamaAmori owabusa eHeshiboni, kuze kube semngceleni wabantwana bakoAmoni,
11 And Gilead, and the border of the Geshurites and Maachathites, and all mount Hermon, and all Bashan to Salcah;
leGileyadi lomngcele wamaGeshuri lamaMahakathi lentaba yonke yeHermoni leBashani lonke kuze kube seSaleka,
12 All the kingdom of Og in Bashan, who reigned in Ashtaroth and in Edrei, who remained of the remnant of the giants: for these did Moses smite, and cast them out.
umbuso wonke kaOgi eBashani owabusa eAshitarothi leEdreyi. Nguye owasala kunsali yeziqhwaga. UMozisi wayebatshaye-ke wabaxotsha elifeni labo.
13 Nevertheless the children of Israel drove not out the Geshurites, nor the Maachathites: but the Geshurites and the Maachathites dwell among the Israelites until this day.
Kodwa abantwana bakoIsrayeli kabawaxotshanga elifeni amaGeshuri lamaMahakathi; kodwa amaGeshuri lamaMahakathi ahlala phakathi kukaIsrayeli kuze kube lamuhla.
14 Only to the tribe of Levi he gave no inheritance; the sacrifices of the LORD God of Israel made by fire are their inheritance, as he said to them.
Kuphela esizweni sakoLevi kanikanga ilifa; iminikelo yeNkosi uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli eyenziwe ngomlilo iyilifa laso, njengokutsho kwayo kuso.
15 And Moses gave to the tribe of the children of Reuben inheritance according to their families.
UMozisi wasenika isizwe sabantwana bakoRubeni ngokwensendo zabo.
16 And their land was from Aroer, that is on the bank of the river Arnon, and the city that is in the midst of the river, and all the plain by Medeba;
Lomngcele waso wasukela eAroweri esekhunjini lwesifula seArinoni, lomuzi ophakathi kwesifula, lamagceke wonke eMedeba,
17 Heshbon, and all its cities that are in the plain; Dibon, and Bamothbaal, and Bethbaalmeon,
iHeshiboni, lemizi yayo yonke esemagcekeni, iDiboni leBamothi-Bhali leBeti-Bhali-Meyoni,
18 And Jahazah, and Kedemoth, and Mephaath,
leJahaza leKedemothi leMefahathi,
19 And Kirjathaim, and Sibmah, and Zarethshahar in the mount of the valley,
leKiriyathayimi leSibima leZerethi-Shahari entabeni yesigodi,
20 And Bethpeor, and Ashdothpisgah, and Bethjeshimoth,
leBeti-Peyori leAshidodi-Pisiga leBeti-Jeshimothi,
21 And all the cities of the plain, and all the kingdom of Sihon king of the Amorites, who reigned in Heshbon, whom Moses smote with the princes of Midian, Evi, and Rekem, and Zur, and Hur, and Reba, who were chiefs of Sihon, dwelling in the country.
lemizi yonke yamagceke, lombuso wonke kaSihoni inkosi yamaAmori, owayebusa eHeshiboni, uMozisi amtshaya leziphathamandla zeMidiyani, oEvi loRekemi loZuri loHuri loReba, amakhosana kaSihoni, abakhileyo belizwe.
22 Balaam also the son of Beor, the soothsayer, did the children of Israel slay with the sword among them that were slain by them.
LoBalami indodana kaPeyori, ovumisayo, abantwana bakoIsrayeli bambulala ngenkemba phakathi kwababuleweyo babo.
23 And the border of the children of Reuben was Jordan, and its border. This was the inheritance of the children of Reuben after their families, the cities and their villages.
Lomngcele wabantwana bakoRubeni wawuyiJordani lomngcele wayo. Lokhu kwakuyilifa labantwana bakoRubeni ngokwensendo zabo, imizi lemizana yayo.
24 And Moses gave inheritance to the tribe of Gad, even to the children of Gad according to their families.
UMozisi wasenika isizwe sakoGadi, kubantwana bakoGadi ngokwensendo zabo.
25 And their land was Jazer, and all the cities of Gilead, and half the land of the children of Ammon, to Aroer that is before Rabbah;
Lomngcele wabo wawuyiJazeri layo yonke imizi yeGileyadi lengxenye yelizwe labantwana bakoAmoni, kusiya eAroweri, ephambi kweRaba,
26 And from Heshbon to Ramathmizpeh, and Betonim; and from Mahanaim to the border of Debir;
njalo kusukela eHeshiboni kusiya eRamathi-Mizipa leBetonimi, njalo kusukela eMahanayimi kuze kube semngceleni weDebhiri;
27 And in the valley, Betharam, and Bethnimrah, and Succoth, and Zaphon, the rest of the kingdom of Sihon king of Heshbon, Jordan and its border, even to the edge of the sea of Chinnereth on the other side of Jordan eastward.
lesigodini, iBeti-Harama leBeti-Nimira leSukothi leZafoni, insali yombuso kaSihoni inkosi yeHeshiboni, iJordani lomngcele, kuze kube sekupheleni kolwandle lweKinerethi ngaphetsheya kweJordani empumalanga.
28 This is the inheritance of the children of Gad after their families, the cities, and their villages.
Leli yilifa labantwana bakoGadi ngokwensendo zabo, imizi lemizana yabo.
29 And Moses gave inheritance to the half tribe of Manasseh: and this was the possession of the half tribe of the children of Manasseh by their families.
UMozisi wasenika ingxenye yesizwe sakoManase ilifa; njalo yayingeyengxenye yesizwe sabantwana bakoManase ngokwensendo zabo.
30 And their land was from Mahanaim, all Bashan, all the kingdom of Og king of Bashan, and all the towns of Jair, which are in Bashan, sixty cities:
Lomngcele wabo wasukela eMahanayimi, iBashani lonke, umbuso wonke kaOgi inkosi yeBashani, layo yonke imizana yeJayiri eseBashani, imizi engamatshumi ayisithupha.
31 And half Gilead, and Ashtaroth, and Edrei, cities of the kingdom of Og in Bashan, went to the children of Machir the son of Manasseh, even to the one half of the children of Machir by their families.
Lengxenye yeGileyadi, leAshitarothi, leEdreyi, imizi yombuso kaOgi eBashani, yayingeyabantwana bakoMakiri indodana kaManase, ngitsho eyengxenye yabantwana bakoMakiri ngokwensendo zabo.
32 These are the countries which Moses distributed for inheritance in the plains of Moab, on the other side of Jordan, by Jericho, eastward.
La yiwo uMozisi awanika aba yilifa emagcekeni akoMowabi ngaphetsheya kweJordani eJeriko empumalanga.
33 But to the tribe of Levi Moses gave not any inheritance: the LORD God of Israel was their inheritance, as he said to them.
Kodwa esizweni sakoLevi uMozisi kanikanga ilifa; iNkosi, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli, iyilifa labo, njengokutsho kwayo kubo.
