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.
Many years had passed by, and Joshua had grown old. The Lord spoke to him, saying, “You're now an old man, but there's still a great deal of land still to be taken.
2 “Men tè ki rete yo: tout kote Filisten yo ak tout sila a Gechouryen yo;
This is the remaining land: the territory of all the Philistines and all the Geshurites,
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 Shihur River on the border with Egypt north to the border of Ekron—all of which is counted as Canaanite but comes under the five Philistine lords of Gaza, Ashdod, Ashkelon, Gath, and Ekron. In addition there's the land of the Avvites
4 Nan sid, tout teritwa a Canaan yo ak Meara ki pou Sidonyen yo, soti nan Aphek jis rive nan fwontyè Amoreyen yo;
in the south, all the land of the Canaanites, and Mearah that belongs to the Sidonians, all the way to Aphek on the border with the Amorites,
5 epi teritwa Gibliyen yo avèk tout Liban, vè lès, soti Baal-Gad anba Mòn Hermon jis rive nan Lebo-Hamath.
as well as the land of the Gebalites and the Lebanon area from the town of Baalgad to the slopes of Mount Hermon to Lebo-hamath,
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.
and the those who live in the hill country from Lebanon to Misrephoth Maim, including all the land of the Sidonians. I myself will drive them out ahead of the Israelites. Just allocate the land to Israel for them to own, as I have commanded you.
7 Koulye a, pou sa, divize tè sa a kòm eritaj a nèf tribi yo avèk mwatye tribi a Manassé a.”
So divide this land among the nine tribes and the half-tribe of Manasseh for them to own.”
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:
The other half of the tribe of Manasseh, and the tribes of Reuben and Gad, had already received their land grant on the east side of the Jordan, as allotted to them by Moses, the servant of the Lord.
9 soti Aroër ki akote vale Arnon an, avèk vil ki nan mitan vale a ak tout plèn Médeba a, jis rive nan Dibon;
It stretched from Aroer on the edge of the Arnon valley, from the town in the middle of the valley, and all the plateau of Medeba, up to 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 towns that belonged to Sihon, king of the Amorites, who ruled in Heshbon, up to the border with the Ammonites.
11 epi Galaad ak teritwa a Gechouryen yo avèk Maakatyen yo, tout Mòn Hermon an ak tout Basan jis rive Salca;
In addition it included Gilead, the land of the Geshurites and Maacathites, all of Mount Hermon, and all of Bashan as far as Salecah,
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.
as well as all the land of the kingdom of Og of Bashan, who had ruled in Ashtaroth and Edrei. He was one of the last of the Rephaites. Moses had defeated them and driven them out.
13 Men fis Israël yo pa t deplase Gechouryen yo ak Maakatyen yo; paske Gueschur avèk Maacath rete pami Israël yo jis jodi a.
But the Israelites had not driven out the Geshurites or the Maacathites, who still live among them to this very 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.
Moses did not allocate any land for the Levites to own. Instead they were allotted the offerings made by fire to the Lord, the God of Israel, as the Lord had promised them.
15 Epi Moïse te bay a tribi fis a Ruben yo selon fanmi pa yo.
This was the land that Moses allotted to the tribe of Reuben, by families:
16 Teritwa pa yo te soti Aroër ki arebò vale Arnon an, avèk vil nan mitan vale a ak tout plèn akote Médeba a;
Their territory stretched from Aroer on the edge of the Arnon valley, from the town in the middle of the valley, and all the plateau of Medeba;
17 Hesbon ak tout vil pa li yo ki nan plèn nan: Dibon avèk Bamoth-Baal ak Beth-Baal-Meon,
Heshbon and all associated towns on the plateau—Dibon, Bamoth Baal, Beth Baal Meon,
18 epi Jahats, Kedémoth, Méphaath,
Jahaz, Kedemoth, Mephaath,
19 Kirjathaïm, Sibma, Tséreth-Haschachar sou mòn a vale a,
Kiriathaim, Sibmah, Zereth-shahar, on a hill in the valley,
20 Beth-Peor, avèk pant a Pisga yo, Beth-Jeschimoth,
Beth-peor, the slopes of Pisgah, Beth-jeshimoth—
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.
all the towns of the plateau and all the kingdom of Sihon, the Amorite king, who ruled in Heshbon. He was defeated by Moses, as well as the Midianite leaders Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur, and Reba, princes who lived in the kingdom and who were allied to Sihon.
22 Fis Israël yo, osi, te touye avèk nepe, Balaam, fis a Beor a, yon divinò, pami tout lòt ki te mouri nan yo.
At the same time the Israelites killed Balaam, son of Beor, the fortune-teller, along with the others who were slaughtered.
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.
The Jordan was the boundary for the tribe of Reuben. This was the land, the towns and the villages, allotted to the tribe of Reuben, by families.
24 Moïse, osi, te bay tribi Gad la, a fis Gad yo, selon fanmi pa yo.
This was the land that Moses allotted to the tribe of Gad, by families:
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,
Their territory was Jazer, all the towns of Gilead, and half of the land of the Ammonites up to Aroer, near Rabbah;
26 epi soti Hesbon, jis rive nan Ramath-Mitspé, Bethonim ak soti Mahanaïm jis rive nan lizyè Debir a;
stretching from Heshbon to Ramath-mizpeh and Betonim, and from Mahanaim to the Debir region.
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.
In the Jordan valley lay Beth-haram, Beth-nimrah, Succoth, and Zaphon, the rest of the kingdom of Sihon, king of Heshbon. The boundary ran along the Jordan up to the bottom end of the sea of Kinnereth and then ran east.
28 Sa se eritaj a fis a Gad yo selon fanmi, vil yo ak bouk pa yo.
This was the land, the towns and the villages, allotted to the tribe of Gad, by families.
29 Moïse te, osi, bay yon eritaj a mwatye tribi Manassé a. Li te pou mwatye tribi Manassé a selon fanmi pa yo.
This was the land that Moses allotted to the half-tribe of Manasseh, that is half of the tribe of the descendants of Manasseh, by families:
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.
Their territory stretched from Manahaim through the whole of Bashan, all the kingdom of Og, and all the towns of Jair in Bashan—sixty in all.
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.
Also included was Gilead, and Ashtaroth and Edrei, the towns of king Og in Bashan. This was the land allotted to the descendants of Machir, son of Manasseh, for half of them, by families.
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.
These were the allocations that Moses made when he was in the plains of Moab, on the other side of the Jordan, east of Jericho.
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.
However, Moses did not allot any land to the Levites, for the Lord, the God of Israel, had promised them that he would be their allocation.
