Joshua 18
1 And the whole congregation of the children of Israel assembled at Shiloh, and set up the tabernacle of the congregation there: and the land was subdued before them.
Dia nivory tao Silo ny fiangonana, dia ny Zanak’ Isiraely rehetra, ka nanangana ny trano-lay fihaonana tao. Ary ny tany dia resy teo anoloany.
2 And there remained among the children of Israel seven tribes, which had not yet received their inheritance.
Ary nisy firenena fito tamin’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely tsy mbola nahazo ny lovany.
3 And Joshua said to the children of Israel, How long [are] ye slack to go to possess the land which the LORD God of your fathers hath given you?
Dia hoy Josoa tamin’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely: Mandra-pahoviana no hiahotrahoranareo tsy hiditra handova ny tany, izay omen’ i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny razanareo, anareo?
4 Select from among you three men for [each] tribe: and I will send them, and they shall rise, and go through the land, and describe it according to the inheritance of them, and they shall come [again] to me.
Mandoava telo lahy avy isam-pirenena, dia haniraka azy aho, ary hiainga izy ka handeha hitety ny tany ka hanoratra azy araka ny ho lovany, dia hiverina atỳ amiko.
5 And they shall divide it into seven parts: Judah shall abide in their border on the south, and the house of Joseph shall abide in their borders on the north.
Ary hizafa azy ho fito toko izy; ny Joda hitoetra any amin’ ny taniny ao atsimo, ary ny taranak’ i Josefa hitoetra any amin’ ny taniny ao avaratra.
6 Ye shall therefore describe the land [in] seven parts, and bring [the description] hither to me, that I may cast lots for you here before the LORD our God.
Ary soratinareo ny tany ka ataovy fito toko; ary ento atỳ amiko ny soratra, dia hanao filokana ho anareo eto anatrehan’ i Jehovah Andriamanitsika aho.
7 But the Levites have no part among you; for the priesthood of the LORD [is] their inheritance. And Gad, and Reuben, and half the tribe of Manasseh, have received their inheritance beyond Jordan on the east, which Moses the servant of the LORD gave them.
Fa tsy mba manana anjara eo aminareo ny Levita; fa ny fisoronana amin’ i Jehovah no lovany; ary Gada sy Robena sy ny antsasaky ny firenen’ i Manase efa nahazo ny lovany any an-dafy atsinanan’ i Jordana, izay nomen’ i Mosesy, mpanompon’ i Jehovah, azy.
8 And the men arose, and departed: and Joshua charged them that went to describe the land, saying, Go, and walk through the land, and describe it, and come again to me, that I may here cast lots for you before the LORD in Shiloh.
Dia niainga ireo lehilahy ireo ka nandeha; ary Josoa nandidy izay nandeha hanoratra ny tany ka nanao hoe: Mandehana nitety ny tany, ka soraty izy, dia miverena atỳ amiko, ka eto Silo no hanaovako filokana ho anareo eo anatrehan’ i Jehovah.
9 And the men went and passed through the land, and described it by cities in seven parts in a book, and came [again], to Joshua to the host at Shiloh.
Dia lasa ireo lehilahy ireo ka nandeha nitety ny tany, dia nanoratra azy tamin’ ny taratasy, ka nataony fito toko, araka ny tanàna, ary dia tafaverina tany amin’ i Josoa tao an-toby tao Silo izy.
10 And Joshua cast lots for them in Shiloh before the LORD: and there Joshua divided the land to the children of Israel according to their divisions.
Ary Josoa dia nanao filokana ho azy tao Silo teo anatrehan’ i Jehovah; ary tao no nizaran’ i Josoa ny tany ho an’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely araka ny fizarany.
11 And the lot of the tribe of the children of Benjamin came up according to their families: and the border of their lot came forth between the children of Judah and the children of Joseph.
Dia nahazo ny loka ny firenena taranak’ i Benjamina isam-pokony; ary ny faritry ny tany azony dia teo anelanelan’ ny taranak’ i Joda sy ny taranak’ i Josefa.
12 And their border on the north side was from Jordan; and the border went up to the side of Jericho on the north side, and went up through the mountains westward; and the limits of it were at the wilderness of Beth-aven.
Ary ny fari-taniny amin’ ny lafiny avaratra dia hatrany Jordana ka niakatra hatramin’ ny ilan’ i Jeriko amin’ ny avaratra, dia niakatra niankandrefana nahazo ny tany havoana, ka dia nihatra tamin’ ny efitr’ i Betavena,
13 And the border went over from thence towards Luz, to the side of Luz (which [is] Beth-el) southward; and the border descended to Ataroth-adar, near the hill that [lieth] on the south side of the nether Beth-horon.
hatreo dia nandroso hatrany Lozy, hatramin’ ny ilany atsimon’ i Lozy (Betela izany), dia nidina hatrany Atarot-adara ao amin’ ny tendrombohitra atsimon’ i Beti-horona ambany,
14 And the border was drawn [thence], and compassed the corner of the sea southward, from the hill that [lieth] before Beth-horon southward; and the limits of it were at Kirjath-baal (which [is] Kirjath-jearim) a city of the children of Judah. This [was] the west quarter.
dia niolaka tamin’ ny lafiny andrefana ka nianatsimo hatramin’ ny tendrombohitra izay eo anoloan’ i Beti-horona eo atsimo, ka dia nihatra any Kiriata-bala (Kiriata-jearima izany), tanànan’ ny taranak’ i Joda; izany no lafiny andrefana.
15 And the south quarter [was] from the end of Kirjah-jearim, and the border went out on the west, and went out to the well of waters of Nephtoah:
Ary ny lafiny atsimo dia hatramin’ ny faran’ i Kiriata-jearima; ary ny fari-tany dia nandroso niankandrefana ka nihatra tamin’ ny loharanon’ i Neftoa,
16 And the border came down to the end of the mountain that [lieth] before the valley of the son of Hinnom, [and] which [is] in the valley of the giants on the north, and descended to the valley of Hinnom, to the side of Jebusi on the south, and descended to En-rogel,
dia nidina hatramin’ ny faran’ ny tendrombohitra, izay tandrifin’ ny lohasahan’ ny taranak’ i Hinoma, eo amin’ ny Lohasahan’ ny Refaïta eo avaratra, ka nidina hatramin’ ny lohasahan’ i Hinoma, hatramin’ ny ilany atsimon’ ny Jebosita, ka nidina hatrany En-rogela,
17 And was drawn from the north, and went forth to En-shemesh, and went forth towards Geliloth, which [is] over against the going up of Adummim, and descended to the stone of Bohan the son of Reuben,
dia nizotra avy any avaratra ka nandroso hatrany En-semesy sy Gelilota, izay tandrifin’ ny fiakarana Adomima, ka nidina hatramin’ ny vaton’ i Bohana, zanak’ i Robena,
18 And passed along towards the side over against Arabah northward, and went down to Arabah:
dia nandroso hatramin’ ny ilany avaratra tandrifin’ ny tani-hay ka nidina hatrany amin’ ny tani-hay.
19 And the border passed along to the side of Beth-hoglah northward: and the limits of the border were at the north bay of the salt sea at the south end of Jordan. This [was] the south border.
dia nandroso hatramin’ ny ilany avaratr’ i Beti-hogla, ka dia nihatra tamin’ ny helo-drano avaratra amin’ ny Ranomasin-tsira, eo amin’ ny farany atsimo amin’ i Jordana; izany no lafiny atsimo.
20 And Jordan was the border of it on the east side. This [was] the inheritance of the children of Benjamin, by the limits of it round about, according to their families.
Ary Jordana no fari-taniny atsinanana. Izany no lovan’ ny taranak’ i Benjamina amin’ ny fari-taniny manodidina araka ny fokony.
21 Now the cities of the tribe of the children of Benjamin, according to their families, were Jericho, and Beth-hoglah, and the valley of Keziz,
Ary ny tanànan’ ny firenena taranak’ i Benjamina araka ny fokony dia Jeriko sy Beti-hogla ary ny lohasahan’ i Keziza
22 And Beth-arabah, and Zemaraim, and Beth-el,
sy Bet-arabà sy Zemaraima sy Betela
23 And Avim, and Parah, and Ophrah,
sy Avima sy Para sy Ofra
24 And Chephar-haamonai, and Ophni, and Gaba; twelve cities with their villages:
sy Kefara-hamony sy Ofny sy Geba: tanàna roa ambin’ ny folo sy ny zana-bohiny;
25 Gibeon, and Ramah, and Beeroth,
sy Gibeona sy Rama sy Berota
26 And Mizpeh, and Chephirah, and Mozah,
sy Mizpa sy Kefira sy Moza
27 And Rekem, and Irpeel, and Taralah,
sy Rekema sy Iripela sy Tarala
28 And Zelah, Eleph, and Jebusi, (which [is] Jerusalem) Gibeath, [and] Kirjath; fourteen cities with their villages. This [is] the inheritance of the children of Benjamin according to their families.
sy Zela sy Elefa sy ny Jebosita (Jerosalema izany) sy Gibea sy Kiriata: tanàna efatra ambin’ ny folo sy ny zana-bohiny. Izany no lovan’ ny taranak’ i Benjamina araka ny fokony.
