< Jozye 18 >

1 Alò, fis Israël yo te vin rasanble yo menm nan Silo e te monte tant asanble a. Peyi a te vin soumèt devan yo.
And all the congregation of the sons of Israel is assembled [at] Shiloh, and they cause the Tent of Meeting to dwell there, and the land has been subdued before them.
2 Te rete pami fis Israël yo sèt tribi ki potko divize eritaj yo.
And there are seven tribes left among the sons of Israel who have not shared their inheritance,
3 Konsa, Josué te di a fis Israël yo: “Konbyen de tan nou va mete ankò pou nou pa antre pran posesyon peyi a ke SENYÈ a, Bondye a zansèt nou yo, te bannou an?
and Joshua says to the sons of Israel, “Until when are you remiss to go in to possess the land which He, YHWH, God of your fathers, has given to you?
4 Bay a tèt nou twa mesye ki sòti nan chak tribi, pou m kapab voye yo e pou yo kab mache nan peyi a, pou ekri yon plan detaye a yo menm selon pwòp eritaj pa yo; epi yo va retounen bò kote mwen.
Give three men from you for [each] tribe, and I send them, and they rise and go up and down through the land, and describe it according to their inheritance, and come to me,
5 Yo va divize li an sèt pòsyon; Juda va rete nan teritwa pa li nan sid e lakay Joseph la va rete nan teritwa pa yo nan nò.
and they have divided it into seven portions—Judah stays by its border on the south, and the house of Joseph stays by their border on the north—
6 Nou va fè apantaj peyi a an sèt pòsyon e mennen li ban mwen. Mwen va tire yo osò pou nou isit la devan SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an.
and you describe the land [in] seven portions, and have brought [it] to me here, and I have cast a lot for you here before our God YHWH;
7 Paske Levit yo pa gen pòsyon pami nou, akoz pozisyon prèt SENYÈ a se eritaj pa yo. Gad avèk Ruben avèk mwatye tribi Manassé a, osi, te resevwa eritaj vè lès, lòtbò Jourdain an, ke Moïse, sèvitè SENYÈ a, te ba yo.”
for there is no portion for the Levites in your midst, for the priesthood of YHWH [is] their inheritance, and Gad, and Reuben, and half of the tribe of Manasseh received their inheritance beyond the Jordan eastward, which Moses, servant of YHWH, gave to them.”
8 Konsa, mesye yo te leve ale. Josué te kòmande sila ki te ale yo: “Ale mache nan teren an, e founi yon plan apantaj detaye de li e retounen kote mwen. Alò, mwen va tire li osò pou nou soti isit la nan Silo.”
And the men rise and go; and Joshua commands those who are going to describe the land, saying, “Go, and walk up and down through the land, and describe it, and return to me, and here I cast a lot for you before YHWH in Shiloh.”
9 Konsa, mesye yo te sòti e te pase nan peyi a, yo te fè plan apantaj detaye a. Yo te ekri yon deskripsyon selon vil li yo, sèt divizyon yo nan yon liv. Konsa, yo te retounen vè Josué nan kan an Silo.
And the men go, and pass over through the land, and describe it by cities, in seven portions, on a scroll, and they come to Joshua, to the camp [at] Shiloh.
10 Epi Josué te tire yo osò pou yo nan Silo devan SENYÈ a e la, Josué te divize peyi a pou fis Israël yo selon divizyon pa yo.
And Joshua casts a lot for them in Shiloh before YHWH, and there Joshua apportions the land to the sons of Israel, according to their divisions.
11 Alò, tiraj osò a pou tribi Benjamin an te monte selon fanmi pa yo e teritwa osò pa yo a te poze antre fis a Juda yo ak fis a Joseph yo.
And a lot goes up [for] the tribe of the sons of Benjamin, for their families; and the border of their lot goes out between the sons of Judah and the sons of Joseph.
12 Lizyè pa yo nan kote nò a te soti nan Jourdain an, lizyè a te monte bò kote Jéricho nan nò, li te pase nan peyi ti kolin yo vè lwès e li te fè bout li nan dezè a Beth-Aven an.
And the border is for them at the north side from the Jordan, and the border has gone up to the side of Jericho on the north, and gone up through the hill-country westward, and its outgoings have been at the wilderness of Beth-Aven;
13 Soti la, lizyè a te kouri vè Luz nan kote sid a Luz (ki se Béthel) vè sid; epi lizyè a te desann vè Athroth-Addar, toupre ti mòn ki sou kote sid a Ba Beth-Horon an.
and the border has gone over there to Luz, to the side of Luz (it [is] Beth-El) southward, and the border has gone down [to] Atroth-Addar, by the hill that [is] on the south of the lower Beth-Horon;
14 Lizyè a te lonje rive e te vire won sou kote lwès la vè sid; soti nan ti mòn ki parèt devan Beth-Horon vè sid; epi li te fè bout li nan Kirjath-Baal (sa vle di Kirjath-Jearim), yon vil a fis a Juda yo. Sa se te kote lwès la.
and the border has been marked out, and has gone around to the corner of the sea southward, from the hill which [is] at the front of Beth-Horon southward, and its outgoings have been to Kirjath-Ba‘al (it [is] Kirjath-Jearim), a city of the sons of Judah: this [is] the west quarter.
15 Epi kote sid la te soti akote a Kirjath-Jearim e lizyè a te ale vè lwès pou te rive nan fontèn dlo Nephthoach yo.
And the south quarter [is] from the end of Kirjath-Jearim, and the border has gone out westward, and has gone out to the fountain of the waters of Nephtoah;
16 Lizyè a te kouri desann rive akote ti mòn ki nan vale Ben-Hinnom, ki nan vale Rephaïm nan vè nò. Epi li te ale desann a vale Hinnom an, nan pant Jebizyen vè sid e te desann jis nan En-Roguel.
and the border has come down to the extremity of the hill which [is] on the front of the Valley of the Son of Hinnom, which [is] in the Valley of the Rephaim northward, and has gone down the Valley of Hinnom to the side of Jebusi southward, and gone down [to] En-Rogel,
17 Li te lonje vè nò e te rive nan En-Schémesch ak nan Gueliloth, ki anfas pant Adummim nan. Epi li te desann nan wòch Bohan an, fis a Ruben an.
and has been marked out on the north, and gone out to En-Shemesh, and gone out to Geliloth, which [is] opposite the ascent of Adummim, and gone down [to] the stone of Bohan son of Reuben,
18 Li te kontinye akote pa devan Araba a vè nò e te desann rive nan Araba.
and passed over to the side in front of the Arabah northward, and gone down to Arabah;
19 Lizyè a te kontinye vè akote Beth-Hogla vè nò; epi lizyè a te fè bout li nan dlo nò a Lamè Sale a, nan pwent sid a Rivyè Jourdain an. Sa se te lizyè sid la.
and the border has passed over to the side of Beth-Hoglah northward, and the outgoings of the border have been to the north bay of the Salt Sea, to the south extremity of the Jordan; this [is] the south border;
20 Anplis, Jourdain an te lizyè li nan kote lès. Sa se te eritaj a fis Benjamin yo, selon fanmi pa yo ak selon lizyè li yo toupatou.
and the Jordan borders it at the east quarter; this [is] the inheritance of the sons of Benjamin, by its borders all around, for their families.
21 Alò, vil pou tribi a fis Benjamin yo selon fanmi pa yo se te Jéricho, Beth-Hogla, Émek-Ketsits,
And the cities for the tribe of the sons of Benjamin, for their families, have been Jericho, and Beth-Hoglah, and the Valley of Keziz,
22 Beth-Araba, Tsemaraïm, Béthel,
and Beth-Arabah, Zemaraim, and Beth-El,
23 Avvim, Para, Ophra,
and Avim, and Parah, and Ophrah,
24 Kephar-Ammonaï, Ophni, epi Guéba; douz vil yo, avèk bouk pa yo.
and Chephar-Haammonai, and Ophni, and Gaba; twelve cities and their villages.
25 Gabaon, Rama, Beéroth,
Gibeon, and Ramah, and Beeroth,
26 Mitspé, Kephira, Motsa,
and Mizpeh, and Chephirah, and Mozah,
27 Rékem, Jirpeel, Thareala,
and Rekem, and Irpeel, and Taralah,
28 Tséla, Éleph, Jebus, ki se Jérusalem, Guibeath ak Kirjath; Sa se eritaj a fis Benjamin yo selon fanmi pa yo.
and Zelah, Eleph, and Jebusi (it [is] Jerusalem), Gibeath, Kirjath; fourteen cities and their villages. This [is] the inheritance of the sons of Benjamin, for their families.
