Jozye 13

1 Alò Josué te vin vye e avanse nan laj lè SENYÈ a te di li: “Ou vin vye e avanse nan laj e anpil nan tè a rete san posede.

Josue was old, and far advanced in years, and the Lord said to him: Thou art grown old, and advanced in age, and there is a very large country left, which is not yet divided by lot:

2 “Men tè ki rete yo: tout kote Filisten yo ak tout sila a Gechouryen yo;

To wit, all Galilee, Philistia, and all Gessuri.

3 soti nan Schichor ki nan lès Égypte, jis rive nan fwontyè Ékron ki nan nò (li konte tankou Kananeyen yo); senk prens a Filisten yo: sa Gaza a, sa Asdod la, sa Askalon an, sa Gath la ak sa Ekron an e pa Avyen yo.

From the troubled river, that watereth Egypt, unto the borders of Accaron northward: the land of Chanaan, which is divided among the lords of the Philistines, the Gazites, the Azotians, the Ascalonites, the Gethites, and the Accronites.

4 Nan sid, tout teritwa a Canaan yo ak Meara ki pou Sidonyen yo, soti nan Aphek jis rive nan fwontyè Amoreyen yo;

And on the south side are the Hevites, all the land of Chanaan, and Maara of the Sidonians as far as Apheca, and the borders of the Amorrhite,

5 epi teritwa Gibliyen yo avèk tout Liban, vè lès, soti Baal-Gad anba Mòn Hermon jis rive nan Lebo-Hamath.

And his confines. The country also of Libanus towards the east from Baalgad under mount Hermon to the entering into Emath.

6 “Tout pèp ki te rete nan peyi ti kolin yo soti Liban jis rive Misrephoth-Maim, tout Sidonyen yo, mwen va pouse yo ale soti devan fis Israël yo. Se sèl a Israël pou bay li kòm eritaj, jan Mwen te kòmande ou a.

Of all that dwell in the mountains from Libanus, to the waters of Maserephoth, and all the Sidonians. I am he that will cut them off from before the face of the children of Israel. So let their land come in as a part of the inheritance of Israel, as I have commanded thee.

7 Koulye a, pou sa, divize tè sa a kòm eritaj a nèf tribi yo avèk mwatye tribi a Manassé a.”

And now divide the land in possession to the nine tribes, and to the half tribe of Manasses,

8 Avèk lòt mwatye tribi a, Ribenit yo ak Gadit yo te resevwa eritaj pa yo ke Moïse te ba yo lòtbò Jourdain an nan lès, jis jan ke Moïse, sèvitè SENYÈ a, te bay yo a:

With whom Ruben and Gad have possessed the land, which Moses the servant of the Lord delivered to them beyond the river Jordan, on the east side.

9 soti Aroër ki akote vale Arnon an, avèk vil ki nan mitan vale a ak tout plèn Médeba a, jis rive nan Dibon;

From Aroer, which is upon the bank of the torrent Amen, and in the midst of the valley and all the plains of Medaba, as far as Dibon:

10 epi tout vil a Sihon yo, wa a Amoreyen yo, ki te renye nan Hesbon yo, jis rive nan lizyè fis a Ammon yo;

And all the cities of Sehon, king of the Amorrhites, who reigned in Hesebon, unto the borders of the children of Ammon.

11 epi Galaad ak teritwa a Gechouryen yo avèk Maakatyen yo, tout Mòn Hermon an ak tout Basan jis rive Salca;

And Galaad, and the borders of Gessuri and Machati, and all mount Hermon, and all Basan as far as Salecha,

12 tout wayòm a Og yo nan Basan ki te renye nan Ashtaroth ak nan Édréï, (se te li sèl ki te rete kòm retay a Rephaïm yo); paske Moïse te frape yo e deplase yo.

All the kingdom of Og in Basan, who reigned in Astaroth and Edrai, he was of the remains of the Raphaims: and Moses overthrew and destroyed them.

13 Men fis Israël yo pa t deplase Gechouryen yo ak Maakatyen yo; paske Gueschur avèk Maacath rete pami Israël yo jis jodi a.

And the children of Israel would not destroy Gessuri and Machati: and they have dwelt in the midst of Israel, until this present day.

14 Sèlman a tribi Levi a, li pa t bay eritaj. Ofrann pa dife a SENYÈ a, Bondye a Israël la, se eritaj pa yo, jan Li te pale yo a.

But to the tribe of Levi he gave no possession: but the sacrifices and victims of the Lord God of Israel, are his inheritance, as he spoke to him.

15 Epi Moïse te bay a tribi fis a Ruben yo selon fanmi pa yo.

And Moses gave a possession to the children of Ruben according to their kindreds.

16 Teritwa pa yo te soti Aroër ki arebò vale Arnon an, avèk vil nan mitan vale a ak tout plèn akote Médeba a;

And their border was from Aroer, which is on the bank of the torrent Arnon, and in the midst of the valley of the same torrent: all the plain, that leadeth to Medaba,

17 Hesbon ak tout vil pa li yo ki nan plèn nan: Dibon avèk Bamoth-Baal ak Beth-Baal-Meon,

And Hesebon, and all their villages, which are in the plains. Dibon also, and Bamothbaal, and the town of Baalmaon,

18 epi Jahats, Kedémoth, Méphaath,

And Jassa, and Cidimoth, and Mephaath,

19 Kirjathaïm, Sibma, Tséreth-Haschachar sou mòn a vale a,

And Cariathaim, and Sabama, and Sarathasar in the mountain of the valley.

20 Beth-Peor, avèk pant a Pisga yo, Beth-Jeschimoth,

Bethphogor and Asedoth, Phasga and Bethiesimoth,

21 tout vil nan plèn yo ak tout wayòm a Sihon an, wa Amoreyen an, ki te renye nan Hesbon, ke Moïse te frape ansanm avèk chèf Madian yo, Évi, Rékem, Tsur, Hur, avèk Reba, prens a Sihon yo, ki te rete nan peyi a.

And all the cities of the plain, and all the kingdoms of Sehon king of the Amorrhites, that reigned in Hesebon, whom Moses slew with the princes of Madian: Hevi, and Recem, and Sur and Hur, and Rebe, dukes of Sehon inhabitants of the land.

22 Fis Israël yo, osi, te touye avèk nepe, Balaam, fis a Beor a, yon divinò, pami tout lòt ki te mouri nan yo.

Balaam also the son of Beer the soothsayer, the children of Israel slew with the sword among the rest that were slain.

23 Lizyè a fis a Ruben yo se te Jourdain an. Sa se te eritaj a fis Ruben yo selon fanmi pa yo, vil ak ti bouk yo.

And the river Jordan was the herder of the children of Ruben. This is the possession of the Rubenites, by their kindreds, of cities and villages.

24 Moïse, osi, te bay tribi Gad la, a fis Gad yo, selon fanmi pa yo.

And Moses gave to the tribe of Gad and to his children by their kindreds a possession, of which this is the division.

25 Teritwa pa yo se te Jazer, tout vil nan Galaad yo ak mwatye peyi a fis Ammon yo, jis rive nan Aroër ki devan Rabba a,

The border of Jaser, and all the cities of Galaad, and half the land of the children of Ammon: as far as Aroer which is over against Rabba:

26 epi soti Hesbon, jis rive nan Ramath-Mitspé, Bethonim ak soti Mahanaïm jis rive nan lizyè Debir a;

And from Hesebon unto Ramoth, Masphe and Betonim: and from Manaim unto the borders of Dabir.

27 epi nan vale a, Beth-Haram, Beth-Nimra, Succoth ak Tsaphon, sila ki rete nan wayòm Sihon an, wa Hesbon an, avèk Jourdain an kòm lizyè li jis rive nan pwent Lamè Kinnéreth la, lòt kote Jourdain an vè lès.

And in the valley Betharan and Bethnemra, and Socoth, and Saphon the other part of the kingdom of Sehon king of Hesebon: the limit of this also is the Jordan, as far as the uttermost part of the sea of Cenereth beyond the Jordan on the east side.

28 Sa se eritaj a fis a Gad yo selon fanmi, vil yo ak bouk pa yo.

This is the possession of the children of Gad by their families, their cities, and villages.

29 Moïse te, osi, bay yon eritaj a mwatye tribi Manassé a. Li te pou mwatye tribi Manassé a selon fanmi pa yo.

He gave also to the half tribe of Manasses and his children possession according to their kindreds,

30 Teritwa pa yo te soti nan Mahanaïm, tout Basan, tout wayòm ki pou Og la, wa Basan an ak tout a vil a Jaïr yo ki nan Basan, swasant vil antou.

The beginning whereof is this: from Manaim all Basan, and all the kingdoms of Og king of Basan, and all the villages of Jair, which are in Basan, threescore towns.

31 Anplis, mwatye nan Galaad, avèk Aschtaroth ak Édréï, vil nan wayòm Og yo, nan Basan, te vin pou fis Makir yo, fis a Manassé yo, pou mwatye a fis Makir yo selon fanmi pa yo.

And half Galaad, and Astaroth, and Edrai, cities of the kingdom of Og in Basan: to the children of Machir, the son of Manasses, to one? half of the children of Machir according to their kindreds.

32 Sila yo se teritwa ke Moïse te divize kòm eritaj nan ba plèn a Moab yo, lòtbò Jourdain an, vè Jéricho ki nan lès.

This possession Moses divided in the plains of Moab, beyond the Jordan, over against Jericho on the east side.

33 Men a tribi Levi a, Moïse pa t ba li eritaj. SENYÈ a, Bondye a Israël la, se eritaj pa yo, jan li te pwomèt a yo menm nan.

But to the tribe of Levi he gave no possession: because the Lord the God of Israel himself is their possession, as he spoke to them.
