Joshua 13

1 Nʼoge a, Joshua aghọọla agadi nwoke, Onyenwe anyị kpọrọ ya sị ya, “Ugbu a, ị ghọọla agadi, ụbọchị ọgwụgwụ ndụ gị abịala nso, ma ọtụtụ ala fọdụrụ ndị a ga-emeri.

Now Joshua was old [and] advanced in years; and the LORD said to him Thou art old [and] advanced in years, and there remaineth yet very much land to be possessed.

2 “Ndị a bụ ala nke fọdụrụ unu ga-enweta: “ala ndị Filistia niile na ala ndị Geshua niile,

This [is] the land that yet remaineth: all the borders of the Philistines, and all Geshuri,

3 site nʼosimiri Shaịho dị nʼọnụ Ijipt ruo nʼoke ala Ekrọn, nʼakụkụ ugwu ya, nke a gụnyere ndị Kenan, na ndịisi ise ndị Filistia: ndị Gaza, ndị Ashdọd, ndị Ashkelọn, ndị Gat, na ndị Ekrọn; nakwa ala ndị Ava,

From Sihor, which [is] before Egypt, even to the borders of Ekron northward, [which] is counted to the Canaanite: five lords of the Philistines; the Gazathites, and the Ashdothites, the Eshkalonites, the Gittites, and the Ekronites; also the Avites:

4 site na ndịda ala ahụ niile dị nʼugwu; nʼala ndị Kenan, na Meara, nke bụ ala ndị Saịdọn, ruo nʼAfek, na oke ala ndị Amọrait;

From the south all the land of the Canaanites, and Mearah that [is] beside the Sidonians, to Aphek to the borders of the Amorites:

5 na ala ndị Gebal niile; na Lebanọn niile ruo nʼọwụwa anyanwụ, site Baal-Gad nʼokpuru ugwu Hemon ruo na mbata Hamat.

And the land of the Giblites, and all Lebanon towards the sun-rising, from Baal-gad under mount Hermon to the entering into Hamath.

6 “Ndị niile bi nʼala ugwu site na Lebanọn ruo Mizrefot Maim, ya bụ, ndị Saịdọn niile, Mụ onwe m ga-achụpụ ha site nʼihu ụmụ Izrel. Ihe dịrị gị bụ ike ala ahụ ka ọ bụrụ ihe nketa nye ndị Izrel, dịka mụ onwe m nyere gị iwu.

And the inhabitants of the hill-country from Lebanon to Misrephoth-maim, [and] all the Sidonians, them will I drive out from before the children of Israel: only divide thou it by lot to the Israelites for an inheritance, as I have commanded thee.

7 Ya mere, kere ebo itoolu, na ọkara Manase, ala ndị a niile, ka ọ bụrụ ihe nketa ha.”

Now therefore divide this land for an inheritance to the nine tribes, and the half tribe of Manasseh,

8 Ọkara ebo Manase, na ebo Ruben, na Gad, enwetala ihe nketa ha nʼofe ọzọ nke Jọdan, nʼakụkụ ọwụwa anyanwụ, dịka Mosis onyeozi Onyenwe anyị nyere ha.

With whom the Reubenites and the Gadites have received their inheritance, which Moses gave them, beyond Jordan eastward, [even] as Moses the servant of the LORD gave them.

9 Ala ha gbatịrị site nʼAroea nke dị na ndagwurugwu Anọn, na site nʼobodo dị nʼetiti ndagwurugwu ahụ, ruo nʼala dị larịị nke gbatịrị site na Medeba ruo Dibọn.

From Aroer that [is] upon the bank of the river Arnon, and the city that [is] in the midst of the river, and all the plain of Medeba to Dibon;

10 Ọ gbatịkwara ruo nʼoke ala ndị Amọn, tinyere obodo niile nke Saịhọn, eze ndị Amọrait na-achị mgbe o bi na Heshbọn.

And all the cities of Sihon king of the Amorites, who reigned in Heshbon, to the border of the children of Ammon;

11 Ọ gụnyekwara Gilead, nʼoke ala ndị Geshua, na ndị Maaka, na ugwu Hemon niile, na Bashan niile, ruokwa Saleka.

And Gilead, and the border of the Geshurites and Maachathites, and all mount Hermon, and all Bashan to Salcah;

12 Ya bụ, obodo niile nke Ọg eze ndị Bashan na-achị, mgbe isi alaeze ya dị nʼAshtarọt na Edrei. (Ọ bụ eze ikpeazụ nʼagbụrụ ndị Refaim.) Mosis busoro Saịhọn na Ọg agha, tigbuo ha, napụkwa ha ala ha.

All the kingdom of Og in Bashan, who reigned in Ashtaroth and in Edrei, who remained of the remnant of the giants. For these did Moses smite, and cast them out.

13 Ma ndị Izrel achụpụghị ndị Geshua na ndị Maaka, ya mere, ha nọgidere na-ebi nʼetiti ụmụ Izrel ruo taa.

Nevertheless, the children of Israel expelled not the Geshurites, nor the Maachathites: but the Geshurites and the Maachathites dwell among the Israelites until this day.

14 O nweghị ala o kenyere ebo Livayị. Nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị kwere ha nkwa na ihe nketa ha ga-abụ ihe aja onyinye niile e si nʼọkụ na-ewetara Onyenwe anyị Chineke Izrel.

Only to the tribe of Levi he gave no inheritance; the sacrifices of the LORD God of Israel made by fire [are] their inheritance, as he said to them.

15 Nke a bụ ala Mosis nyere ebo Ruben dịka agbụrụ ha si dị, ka ọ bụrụ ihe nketa ha.

And Moses gave to the tribe of the children of Reuben [inheritance] according to their families.

16 Ala ha gbatịrị site nʼAroea, na ndagwurugwu iyi Anọn, sitekwa nʼobodo dị nʼetiti ndagwurugwu ahụ na ala dị larịị gabiga gafee Medeba,

And their border was from Aroer that [is] on the bank of the river Arnon, and the city that [is] in the midst of the river, and all the plain by Medeba;

17 ruo Heshbọn, na obodo ndị ọzọ dị nʼala larịị ahụ, tinyere obodo Dibọn, na Bamot Baal, na Bet-Baal-Meon,

Heshbon, and all her cities that [are] in the plain; Dibon, and Bamoth-baal, and Beth-baal-meon,

And Jahaza, and Kedemoth, and Mephaath,

19 na Kiriatem, na Sibma, na Zeret Shaha, nke dị nʼugwu nta dị na ndagwurugwu ahụ;

And Beth-peor, and Ashdoth-pisgah, and Beth-jeshimoth,

And all the cities of the plain, and all the kingdom of Sihon king of the Amorites, who reigned in Heshbon, whom Moses smote with the princes of Midian, Evi, and Rekem, and Zur, and Hur, and Reba, dukes of Sihon, dwelling in the country.

22 Tinyere ndị ha gburu nʼọgbọ agha, ụmụ Izrel ji mma agha gbuo Belam nwa Beoa, onye na-agba aja.

Balaam also the son of Beor, the sooth-sayer, did the children of Israel slay with the sword, among them that were slain by them.

23 Ya mere, oke ala ebo Ruben dị nʼọnụ mmiri osimiri Jọdan. Obodo ukwu na obodo nta ndị a bụ ihe ha nwetara dịka ihe nketa ha. Ezinaụlọ ọbụla nwetakwara oke nke ha dịka ikwu ha si dị.

And the border of the children of Reuben was Jordan, and its border. This [was] the inheritance of the children of Reuben after their families, the cities and their villages.

24 Mosis nyekwara ebo Gad ala nke ha site nʼala ahụ ha lụgburu, dịka ikwu ha si dị.

And Moses gave [inheritance] to the tribe of Gad, [even] to the children of Gad according to their families.

25 Ndị a bụ ala ebo Gad nwetara: ala ahụ niile dị na Jeza, na obodo Gilead niile, na ọkara ala ndị Amọn nke ruru Areoa, nʼakụkụ Raba.

And their border was Jazer, and all the cities of Gilead, and half the land of the children of Ammon, to Aroer that [is] before Rabbah;

26 Na ala sitere Heshbọn ruo Ramat Mizpa, na Betonim, na sitekwa Mahanaim ruo oke ala Debịa.

And from Heshbon to Ramath-mizpeh, and Betonim; and from Mahanaim to the border of Debir;

27 Nʼime ndagwurugwu ala ha bụ Bet-Haram, na Bet-Nimra, na Sukọt, na Zafọn, na ala fọdụrụ nʼalaeze Saịhọn eze Heshbọn, nke dị nʼakụkụ ọwụwa anyanwụ osimiri Jọdan nʼoke ala ya ruokwa nsọtụ osimiri Galili.

And in the valley, Beth-aram, and Beth-nimrah, and Succoth, and Zaphon, the rest of the kingdom of Sihon king of Heshbon, Jordan and [its] border, [even] to the edge of the sea of Cinneroth, on the other side of Jordan eastward.

28 Obodo ndị a na obodo nta ndị ọzọ bụ ihe nketa ụmụ Gad dịka agbụrụ ha si dị.

This [is] the inheritance of the children of Gad after their families, the cities, and their villages.

29 Mosis nyekwara ikwu ọbụla dị nʼọkara ebo Manase ala nke ha, dịka mkpa ha si dị.

And Moses gave [inheritance] to the half-tribe of Manasseh: and [this] was [the possession] of the half-tribe of the children of Manasseh by their families.

30 Ala ha ketara gbatịrị ruo Mahanaim. Ọ bụ ha nwekwa ala Bashan niile, na ala niile Ọg, eze Bashan, na-achị, tinyere iri obodo nta isii dị na Bashan, nke Jaịa wuru. Ha nwetakwara

And their border was from Mahanaim, all Bashan, all the kingdom of Og king of Bashan, and all the towns of Jair, which [are] in Bashan, sixty cities:

31 ọkara Gilead, na Ashtarọt, na Edrei bụ isi obodo alaeze Ọg nʼime Bashan. Ala ndị a niile ka e nyere ọkara ebo Manase, ya bụ ikwu niile e nwere site nʼụmụ Makia, ọkpara Manase.

And half Gilead, and Ashtaroth, and Edrei, cities of the kingdom of Og in Bashan, [were pertaining] to the children of Machir the son of Manasseh, [even] to the one half of the children of Machir by their families.

32 Ndị a bụ otu Mosis si keere ụmụ Izrel ala dị nʼakụkụ ọwụwa anyanwụ osimiri Jọdan, mgbe ụmụ Izrel mara ụlọ ikwu ha nʼobosara ala Moab, na ncherita ihu obodo Jeriko.

These [are the countries] which Moses distributed for inheritance in the plains of Moab, on the other side of Jordan by Jericho eastward.

33 Ma Mosis enyeghị ebo Livayị ala ọbụla, nʼihi na ọ gwara ha na Onyenwe anyị, Chineke Izrel bụ ihe nketa ha nwere, dịka o kwere ha na nkwa.

But to the tribe of Levi Moses gave not [any] inheritance: the LORD God of Israel [was] their inheritance, as he said to them.
