Joshua 21
1 Then came near the heads of the fathers of the Levites to Eleazar the priest, and to Joshua the son of Nun, and to the heads of the fathers of the tribes of the children of Israel;
Och huvudmännen för leviternas familjer trädde fram inför prästen Eleasar och Josua, Nuns son, och huvudmännen för familjerna inom Israels barns stammar
2 And they spoke to them at Shiloh in the land of Canaan, saying, The LORD commanded by the hand of Moses to give us cities to dwell in, with their common lands for our cattle.
och talade till dem i Silo i Kanaans land, och sade: "HERREN bjöd genom Mose att man skulle giva oss städer att bo i, med tillhörande utmarker för vår boskap."

43 And the LORD gave to Israel all the land which he swore to give to their fathers; and they possessed it, and dwelt in it.
Så gav då HERREN åt Israel hela det land som han med ed hade lovat giva åt deras fäder; och de togo det i besittning och bosatte sig där.
44 And the LORD gave them rest on all sides, according to all that he swore to their fathers: and there stood not a man of all their enemies before them; the LORD delivered all their enemies into their hand.
Och HERREN lät dem hava ro på alla sidor, alldeles såsom han med ed hade lovat deras fäder; och ingen av deras fiender kunde stå dem emot, utan HERREN gav alla deras fiender i deras hand.
45 There failed nothing of any good thing which the LORD had spoken to the house of Israel; all came to pass.
Intet uteblev av allt det goda som HERREN hade lovat Israels hus; det gick allt i fullbordan.
