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 came near the heads of the fathers of the Levites unto Eleazar the priest, and unto Joshua the son of Nun, and unto the heads of the fathers of 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 unto 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 the suburbs thereof for 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 unto the Levites out of their inheritance, at the commandment of the LORD, these 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 families of the Kohathites: and the children of Aaron the priest, which were of the Levites, had by lot out of the tribe of Judah, and out of the tribe of Simeon, and out of the tribe 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 the rest of the children of Kohath had by lot out of the families of the tribe of Ephraim, and out of the tribe of Dan, and out of the half tribe of Manasseh, 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.

And the children of Gershon had by lot out of the families of the tribe of Issachar, and out of the tribe of Asher, and out of the tribe of Naphtali, and out of the half tribe of Manasseh in Bashan, thirteen cities.

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.

The children of Merari by their families had out of the tribe of Reuben, and out of the tribe of Gad, and out of the tribe of Zebulun, 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 by lot unto the Levites these cities with their suburbs, as the LORD commanded by the hand of Moses.

9 Men non lavil moun branch fanmi Jida ak branch fanmi Simeyon yo te bay nan pòsyon tè pa yo.

And they gave out of the tribe of the children of Judah, and out of the tribe of the children of Simeon, these cities which are here mentioned by name.

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.

Which the children of Aaron, being of the families of the Kohathites, who were of the children of Levi, had: for theirs was the first lot.

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.

And they gave them the city of Arba the father of Anak, which city is Hebron, in the hill country of Judah, with the suburbs thereof round about it.

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 of the city, and the villages thereof, gave they to Caleb the son of Jephunneh 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,

Thus they gave to the children of Aaron the priest Hebron with her suburbs, to be a city of refuge for the slayer; and Libnah with her suburbs,

14 lavil Jati, lavil Echtemoa,

And Jattir with her suburbs, and Eshtemoa with her suburbs,

15 lavil Olòn, lavil Debi,

And Holon with her suburbs, and Debir with her suburbs,

16 lavil Ayin, lavil Jouta, lavil Bèt-Chemèch, ansanm ak tout savann pou bèt yo: Sa te fè nèf lavil yo te pran sou de branch fanmi sa yo.

And Ain with her suburbs, and Juttah with her suburbs, and Bethshemesh with her suburbs; nine cities out of those two tribes.

17 Nan pòsyon tè pou branch fanmi Benjamen an, yo te bay lavil Gabawon, lavil Geba ansanm ak tout savann pou bèt yo,

19 Antou yo te pran trèz lavil ak tout savann pou bèt yo bay prèt yo, moun fanmi Arawon yo.

All the cities of the children of Aaron, the priests, were thirteen cities with their suburbs.

20 Lòt moun ki te rete nan fanmi Keyat la, moun Levi ki pa t' ankò jwenn anyen yo, resevwa lavil ki te nan pòsyon tè yo te bay moun branch fanmi Efrayim yo.

And the families of the children of Kohath, the Levites which remained of the children of Kohath, even they had the cities of their lot out of the tribe of Ephraim.

21 Yo te ba yo yon lavil nan mòn peyi Efrayim, lavil Sichèm kote moun ki touye moun ka kouri al chache pwoteksyon, ansanm ak tout savann pou bèt yo. Yo te ba yo tou lavil Gezè,

For they gave them Shechem with her suburbs in mount Ephraim, to be a city of refuge for the slayer; and Gezer with her suburbs,

22 lavil Kibsayim, lavil Bètowon ansanm ak tout savann pou bèt yo. Sa te fè kat lavil sou tè moun branch fanmi Efrayim yo.

And Kibzaim with her suburbs, and Bethhoron with her suburbs; four cities.

23 Nan pòsyon tè moun branch fanmi Dann yo, yo ba yo kat lavil: lavil Elteke, lavil Gibeton,

And out of the half tribe of Manasseh, Tanach with her suburbs, and Gathrimmon with her suburbs; two cities.

26 Antou yo te bay rès moun nan fanmi Keyat la dis lavil ak tout savann pou bèt yo.

All the cities were ten with their suburbs for the families of the children of Kohath that remained.

27 Pou moun Levi nan branch fanmi Gèchon yo, yo pran de lavil sou tè ki pou mwatye branch fanmi Manase a, yo ba yo. Se te lavil Golan nan peyi Bazan, yonn nan lavil kote moun ki touye moun ka kouri al chache pwoteksyon, ak lavil Bestra ansanm ak tout savann pou bèt yo.

And unto the children of Gershon, of the families of the Levites, out of the other half tribe of Manasseh they gave Golan in Bashan with her suburbs, to be a city of refuge for the slayer; and Beeshterah with her suburbs; two cities.

28 Yo ba yo kat lavil yo te pran sou tè ki pou branch fanmi Isaka a. Se te lavil Kichyon, lavil Dabera,

And out of the tribe of Issachar, Kishon with her suburbs, Dabareh with her suburbs,

29 lavil Jamout, lavil Angannim ansanm ak tout savann pou bèt yo.

Jarmuth with her suburbs, Engannim with her suburbs; four cities.

30 Yo pran kat lavil nan pòsyon tè ki pou branch fanmi Asè a ba yo. Se te lavil Micheyal, lavil Abdon,

31 lavil Elkat, lavil Reyòb ansanm ak tout savann pou bèt yo.

Helkath with her suburbs, and Rehob with her suburbs; four cities.

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.

And out of the tribe of Naphtali, Kedesh in Galilee with her suburbs, to be a city of refuge for the slayer; and Hammothdor with her suburbs, and Kartan with her suburbs; three cities.

33 Sa te fè antou trèz lavil ansanm ak tout savann pou bèt yo te bay moun fanmi Gèchon yo.

All the cities of the Gershonites according to their families were thirteen cities with their suburbs.

34 Pou rès moun Levi ki nan branch fanmi Merari a, yo pran kat lavil nan pòsyon tè ki pou branch fanmi Zabilon an ba yo. Se te lavil Jokneyam, lavil Kata,

And unto the families of the children of Merari, the rest of the Levites, out of the tribe of Zebulun, Jokneam with her suburbs, and Kartah with her suburbs,

35 lavil Dimna, lavil Nalal ansanm ak tout savann pou bèt yo.

Dimnah with her suburbs, Nahalal with her suburbs; four cities.

36 Apre sa, yo pran kat lavil nan pòsyon tè lòt bò larivyè Jouden ki pou moun branch fanmi Woubenn lan ba yo. Se te lavil Bezè, yonn nan lavil kote moun ki touye moun ka kouri al chache pwoteksyon nan dezè sou platon an, lavil Jatsa,

And out of the tribe of Reuben, Bezer with her suburbs, and Jahazah with her suburbs,

37 lavil Kedemòt, lavil Mefat ansanm ak tout savann pou bèt yo.

Kedemoth with her suburbs, and Mephaath with her suburbs; four cities.

And out of the tribe of Gad, Ramoth in Gilead with her suburbs, to be a city of refuge for the slayer; and Mahanaim with her suburbs,

39 lavil Esbon, lavil Jazè ansanm ak tout savann pou bèt yo.

Heshbon with her suburbs, Jazer with her suburbs; four cities in all.

40 Antou sa te fè douz lavil ki te vin pou rès moun Levi yo, pou moun fanmi Merari yo separe bay chak fanmi pa yo apa.

So all the cities for the children of Merari by their families, which were remaining of the families of the Levites, were by their lot twelve cities.

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.

All the cities of the Levites within the possession of the children of Israel were forty and eight cities with their suburbs.

42 Chak lavil sa yo te mache ak tout savann pou bèt yo.

These cities were every one with their suburbs round about them: thus were all these cities.

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 gave unto Israel all the land which he swore to give unto their fathers; and they possessed it, and dwelt therein.

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 the LORD gave them rest round about, according to all that he swore unto their fathers: and there stood not a man of all their enemies before them; the LORD delivered all their enemies into their hand.

45 Seyè a te kenbe dènye pwomès li te fè pèp Izrayèl la. Tout bagay te pase jan l' te pwomèt la.

There failed not ought of any good thing which the LORD had spoken unto the house of Israel; all came to pass.
