Joshua 18
1 The whole congregation of the children of Israel assembled themselves together at Shiloh, and set up the Tent of Meeting there. The land was subdued before them.
Guutummaan waldaa Israaʼel Shiilootti walitti qabamee dunkaana wal gaʼii achitti dhaabate. Biyyattiin harka isaanii jala galte;
2 Seven tribes remained among the children of Israel, which had not yet divided their inheritance.
taʼus amma illee gosoonni Israaʼel torba dhaala isaanii hin fudhanne ture.
3 Joshua said to the children of Israel, “How long will you neglect to go in to possess the land, which Yahweh, the God of your fathers, has given you?
Kanaafuu Iyyaasuun Israaʼelootaan akkana jedhe; “Isin utuu biyya Waaqayyo Waaqni abbootii keessanii isinii kenne kana hin fudhatin hamma yoomiitti turtu?
4 Appoint for yourselves three men from each tribe. I will send them, and they shall arise, walk through the land, and describe it according to their inheritance; then they shall come to me.
Tokkoo tokkoo gosaa keessaa nama sadii sadii kennadhaa. Anis akka isaan biyya sana ilaalanii akkuma dhaala gosa hundaatti waaʼee ishee barreessaniif isaan nan erga. Isaanis ergasii gara kootti deebiʼu.
5 They shall divide it into seven portions. Judah shall live in his borders on the south, and the house of Joseph shall live in their borders on the north.
Isin biyya sana iddoo torbatti qoodu qabdu. Yihuudaan biyya karaa Kibbaa keessatti hafee manni Yoosef immoo biyya karaa kaabaatti hafuu qaba.
6 You shall survey the land into seven parts, and bring the description here to me; and I will cast lots for you here before Yahweh our God.
Isin erga waaʼee biyya iddoo torbatti qoodamte sanaa barreessitanii booddee gabaasa natti fidaa; anis fuula Waaqayyo Waaqa keenyaa duratti ixaa isinii buusa.
7 However, 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 east of the Jordan, which Moses the servant of Yahweh gave them.”
Gosti Lewwii garuu gidduu keessanitti qooda lafaa hin argatu; sababiin isaas tajaajilli lubummaa kan isaan Waaqayyoof kennan sun dhaala isaanii ti. Gosti Gaad, kan Ruubeenii fi walakkaan gosa Minaasee duraanuu karaa baʼa Yordaanosiin qooda isaanii argatanii jiru. Museen garbichi Waaqayyoo sun isaaniif kennee ture.”
8 The men arose and went. Joshua commanded those who went to survey the land, saying, “Go walk through the land, survey it, and come again to me. I will cast lots for you here before Yahweh in Shiloh.”
Kanaafuu jarri karaa isaanii qabatanii qajeelan; Iyyaasuunis warra haala biyyattii barreessuu dhaqaniin akkana jedhe; “Dhaqaatii biyya sana sakattaʼaatii waaʼee ishee galmeessaa. Ergasii immoo gara koo kottaa; anis asuma Shiilootti fuula Waaqayyoo duratti ixaa isiniif nan buusa.”
9 The men went and passed through the land, and surveyed it by cities into seven portions in a book. They came to Joshua to the camp at Shiloh.
Kanaafuu namoonni sun kaʼanii biyya sana keessa dedeemanii waaʼee haala ishees magaalaa magaalaadhaan iddoo torbatti qoodanii kitaaba maramaa irratti barreessanii qubata Shiilootti gara Iyyaasuutti deebiʼan.
10 Joshua cast lots for them in Shiloh before Yahweh. There Joshua divided the land to the children of Israel according to their divisions.
Iyyaasuun ergasii Shiiloo keessatti fuula Waaqayyoo duratti ixaa buuseef; akkuma qooda gosa isaaniittis Israaʼelootaaf biyyattii hire.
11 The lot of the tribe of the children of Benjamin came up according to their families. The border of their lot went out between the children of Judah and the children of Joseph.
Ixaan jalqabaa akkuma balbala balbala isaaniitti gosa Beniyaamiif baʼe. Biyyi isaan ixaadhaan argatanis gosa Yihuudaatii fi gosa Yoosef gidduutti argama.
12 Their border on the north quarter was from the Jordan. The border went up to the side of Jericho on the north, and went up through the hill country westward. It ended at the wilderness of Beth Aven.
Karaa kaabaatiin daariin isaanii Yordaanosii kaʼee kaaba tabba Yerikoo irra darbuudhaan karaa lixaatiin biyya gaaraatti gad buʼee gammoojjii Beet Aawweniitiin baʼa.
13 The border passed along from there to Luz, to the side of Luz (also called Bethel), southward. The border went down to Ataroth Addar, by the mountain that lies on the south of Beth Horon the lower.
Achii kaʼee kibba tabba Luuzitti jechuunis Beetʼeelitti darbee gara Axaaroti Adaar kan gaara kibba Beet Horoon isa gadii sanaatti gad buʼa.
14 The border extended, and turned around on the west quarter southward, from the mountain that lies before Beth Horon southward; and ended at Kiriath Baal (also called Kiriath Jearim), a city of the children of Judah. This was the west quarter.
Daariin sunis karaa kibbaatiin gaara Beet Horoonitti garagalee jiru sanaa kaʼee karaa lixaatiin gara kibbaatti goree magaalaa ilmaan Yihuudaa kan Kiriyaati Baʼaal jechuunis Kiriyaati Yeʼaariim gaʼa. Kunis daangaa lixaa ti.
15 The south quarter was from the farthest part of Kiriath Jearim. The border went out westward, and went out to the spring of the waters of Nephtoah.
Daangaan kibbaa karaa lixaatiin qarqara Kiriyaati Yeʼaariimiitii jalqaba; daangaan isaa immoo gara bishaan Neftooʼaatti gad buʼa.
16 The border went down to the farthest part of the mountain that lies before the valley of the son of Hinnom, which is in the valley of Rephaim northward. It went down to the valley of Hinnom, to the side of the Jebusite southward, and went down to En Rogel.
Daangaan sunis karaa kaaba Sulula Refaayimiitiin gara gaara Sulula Ben Hinoomitti garagalutti gad buʼa. Innis tabba kibba magaalaa Yebuusotaa biraan gara Sulula Hinoomitti itti fufee gara Een Roogeelitti gad buʼa.
17 It extended northward, went out at En Shemesh, and went out to Geliloth, which is opposite the ascent of Adummim. It went down to the stone of Bohan the son of Reuben.
Ergasii gara kaabaatti goree Een Shemesh dhaqa; achii kaʼees gara Geliiloot kan Malkaa Adumiimitti gara galtee jirtu sanaa itti fufee hamma Dhagaa Boohan ilma Ruubeen sanaatti gad buʼa.
18 It passed along to the side opposite the Arabah northward, and went down to the Arabah.
Ammas gara tabba kaaba Arabbaatti itti fufee gara Arabbaatti gad buʼa.
19 The border passed along to the side of Beth Hoglah northward; and the border ended at the north bay of the Salt Sea, at the south end of the Jordan. This was the south border.
Ergasii tabba kaaba Beet Hoglaatti qajeelee karaa kaaba galoo Galaana Soogiddaa kan karaa kibbaatiin afaan Yordaanositti argamtuutiin baʼa. Kun daarii karaa kibbaa ti.
20 The Jordan was its border on the east quarter. This was the inheritance of the children of Benjamin, by the borders around it, according to their families.
Lagni Yordaanosis karaa baʼaatiin daarii taʼa. Isaan kunneen daariiwwan dhaala ilmaan Beniyaamiitiif karaa hundaan dhaabamanii dha.
