< Jozye 21 >
1 Chèf fanmi Levi yo vin jwenn Eleaza, prèt la, Jozye, pitit gason Noun lan, ak chèf tout lòt branch fanmi pèp Izrayèl la.
Then the princes of the families of Levi came to Eleazar the priest, and to Josue the son of Nun, and to the princes of the kindreds of all the tribes of the children of Israel:
2 Lè sa a, tout moun sa yo te reyini lavil Silo, nan peyi Kanaran. Chèf fanmi Levi yo di yo: -Seyè a te pale ak Moyiz pou nou. Li te bay lòd pou yo te ban nou lavil pou nou rete ak savann pou bèt nou yo jwenn manje.
And they spoke to them in Silo in the land of Chanaan, and said: The Lord commanded by the hand of Moses, that cities should be given us to dwell in, and their suburbs to feed our cattle.
3 Se konsa, moun pèp Izrayèl yo chwazi kèk lavil ak tout savann pou bèt nan pwòp pòsyon tè pa yo, yo bay moun branch fanmi Levi yo, jan Seyè a te bay lòd la.
And the children of Israel gave out of their possessions according to the commandment of the Lord, cities and their suburbs.
4 Yo tire osò. Premye moun ki jwenn pa yo se te moun fanmi Keyat yo. Yo pran trèz lavil nan pòsyon tè ki pou moun branch fanmi Jida, branch fanmi Simeyon ak branch fanmi Benjamen yo, yo bay moun Keyat yo. Moun sa yo se ras fanmi Arawon, prèt la, yo ye.
And the lot came out for the family of Caath of the children of Aaron the priest out of the tribes of Juda, and of Simeon, and of Benjamin, thirteen cities.
5 Apre sa, yo pran dis lavil nan pòsyon tè ki pou branch fanmi Efrayim, branch fanmi Dann ansanm ak mwatye branch fanmi Manase yo, yo separe bay lòt pitit Keyat yo, chak fanmi pa yo apa.
And to the rest of the children of Caath, that is, to the Levites, who remained, out of the tribes of Ephraim, and of Dan, and the half tribe of Manasses, ten cities.
6 Lèfini, yo pran trèz lavil nan pòsyon tè ki pou branch fanmi Isaka, branch fanmi Asè, branch fanmi Neftali ak lòt mwatye branch fanmi Manase a nan peyi Bazan, yo separe bay pitit Gèchon yo, chak fanmi pa yo apa.

7 Yo pran douz lavil nan pòsyon tè ki pou branch fanmi Woubenn, branch fanmi Gad ak branch fanmi Zabilon yo, yo separe bay pitit Merari yo, chak fanmi pa yo apa.
And to the sons of Merari by their kindreds, of the tribes of Ruben and or Cad and of Zabulon, twelve cities.
8 Se konsa moun pèp Izrayèl yo te tire osò pou Seyè a te ka fè yo konnen ki lavil ak tout savann pou yo bay moun Levi yo, jan Seyè a te bay Moyiz lòd pou yo fè a.
And the children of Israel gave to the Levites the cities and their suburbs, as the Lord commanded by the hand of Moses, giving to every one by lot.
9 Men non lavil moun branch fanmi Jida ak branch fanmi Simeyon yo te bay nan pòsyon tè pa yo.
Of the tribes of the children of Juda and of Simeon Josue gave cities: whose names are these,
10 Lavil sa yo te soti pou moun fanmi Keyat, pitit gason Arawon, nan branch fanmi Levi a. Premye gwoup lavil la te vin pou yo.
To the sons of Aaron, of the families of Caath of the race of Levi (for the first lot came out for them)
11 Yo te ba yo lavil Kiriyat aba, ki rele koulye a Ebwon, yon lavil ki te nan mòn peyi Jida yo, ansanm ak tout savann pou mouton yo. Se lavil sa a ki te kapital peyi moun Anak yo.
The city of Arbe the father of Enac, which is called Hebron, in the mountain of Juda, and the suburbs thereof round about.
12 Men, yo pran tout jaden ki te andeyò lavil la ak tout ti bouk ki te sou lòd li yo, yo bay Kalèb, pitit gason Jefoune a, pou rele l' pa l'.
But the fields and the villages thereof he had given to Caleb the son of Jephone for his possession.
13 Men lavil yo te bay moun fanmi Arawon, prèt la: lavil Ebwon, kote moun ki touye moun ka kouri al chache pwoteksyon, ansanm ak tout savann pou bèt li yo,
He gave therefore to the children of Aaron the priest, Hebron a city of refuge, and the suburbs thereof: and Lobna with the suburbs thereof,

And to the rest of the families of the children of Caath of the race of Levi was given this possession.

Of the tribe of Ephraim, Sichem one of the cities of refuge, with the suburbs thereof in mount Ephraim, and Cater,

32 Yo pran twa lavil nan pòsyon tè ki pou branch fanmi Nèftali a ba yo tou. Se te lavil Kadès nan peyi Galile, yonn nan lavil kote moun ki touye moun ka kouri al chache pwoteksyon, lavil Amot-Dò, lavil Katan ansanm ak tout savann pou bèt yo.

All the cities of the children of Merari by their families and kindreds, were twelve.
41 Se konsa, yo te pran karantwit lavil ansanm ak tout savann pou bèt nan mitan tè ki te pou moun Izrayèl yo, yo bay moun Levi yo.
So all the cities of the Levites within the possession of the children of Israel were forty-eight,
42 Chak lavil sa yo te mache ak tout savann pou bèt yo.
With their suburbs, each distributed by the families.
43 Se konsa, Seyè a te bay pèp Izrayèl la peyi li te pwomèt li t'ap bay zansèt yo a. Yo pran tout peyi a pou yo, yo rete ladan l'.
And the Lord God gave to Israel all the land that he had sworn to give to their fathers: and they possessed it and dwelt in it.
44 Seyè a te fè yo gen lapè sou tout fwontyè yo, jan li te pwomèt zansèt yo. Ankenn lènmi pa t' resi kenbe tèt ak yo. Seyè a te lage tout lènmi yo nan men yo.
And he gave them peace from all nations round about: and none of their enemies durst stand against them, but were brought under their dominion.
45 Seyè a te kenbe dènye pwomès li te fè pèp Izrayèl la. Tout bagay te pase jan l' te pwomèt la.
Not so much as one word, which he had promised to perform unto them, was made void, but all came to pass.
