Yosua 21
1 Pada suatu hari para kepala keluarga dalam suku Lewi pergi ke Silo di negeri Kanaan, dan menghadap Imam Eleazar, Yosua anak Nun, dan para kepala keluarga seluruh suku-suku bangsa Israel. Mereka berkata, "Melalui Musa, TUHAN sudah memerintahkan supaya kepada kami, orang-orang Lewi, diberi kota-kota untuk tempat tinggal kami dan tanah-tanah padang di sekitar kota-kota itu untuk ternak kami."
Then the tribal leaders of the Levites came to Eleazar the priest, to Joshua son of Nun, and to the leaders of the families of their ancestors within the people of Israel.
They said to them at Shiloh in the land of Canaan, “Yahweh commanded you by the hand of Moses to give to us cities to live in, with the pasturelands for our livestock.”
3 Maka orang Israel mengikuti perintah TUHAN. Dari tanah milik mereka sendiri, mereka memberikan kepada orang Lewi kota-kota tertentu dengan tanah-tanah padangnya.
So by the command of Yahweh, the people of Israel gave out of their inheritance the following cities, including their pasturelands, to the Levites.
4 Yang pertama-tama menerima kota-kotanya adalah keluarga-keluarga dari kaum Kehat dalam suku Lewi. Keluarga-keluarga keturunan Imam Harun diberikan tiga belas kota dari wilayah suku Yehuda, Simeon dan Benyamin.
The casting of lots for the clans of the Kohathites gave this result: The priests—the descendants of Aaron who were from the Levites—received thirteen cities given from the tribe of Judah, from the tribe of the Simeon, and from the tribe of Benjamin.
5 Keluarga-keluarga lainnya dari kaum Kehat diberi sepuluh kota dari wilayah suku Efraim, suku Dan serta suku Manasye yang di sebelah barat Sungai Yordan.
The rest of the Kohathites were allotted ten cities from the clans of the tribes of Ephraim, Dan, and from the half tribe of Manasseh.
6 Kaum Gerson mendapat tiga belas kota dari wilayah suku Isakhar, Asyer, Naftali dan suku Manasye yang di sebelah timur Sungai Yordan.
Then the people descended from Gershon were given, by the casting of lots, thirteen cities from the clans of the tribes of Issachar, Asher, Naphtali, and the half tribe of Manasseh in Bashan.
7 Keluarga-keluarga dari kaum Merari mendapat dua belas kota dari wilayah suku Ruben, Gad dan Zebulon.
The people who were descendants of Merari, clan by clan, received twelve cities from the tribes of Reuben, Gad, and Zebulun.
8 Demikianlah orang Israel membagi-bagikan kota-kota tersebut dengan tanah-tanah padangnya melalui undian kepada orang Lewi, seperti yang diperintahkan TUHAN melalui Musa.
So the people of Israel gave, by casting lots, these cities (including their pasturelands) to the Levites, just as Yahweh had commanded by the hand of Moses.
9 Dari kaum Kehat dalam suku Lewi, imam-imam keturunan Harunlah yang pertama-tama menerima kota-kotanya; mereka diberi tiga belas kota dengan tanah-tanah padangnya. Dari suku Yehuda dan Simeon, mereka menerima sembilan kota, yaitu: Libna, Yatir, Estemoa, Holon, Debir, Ain, Yuta, Bet-Semes dan Arba, yang dinamakan menurut nama ayah Enak. Kota itu, yang sekarang bernama Hebron, adalah sebuah kota suaka di pegunungan Yehuda. Ladang-ladang dan desa-desa kota ini sudah diberikan kepada Kaleb anak Yefune untuk menjadi tanah miliknya. Dari suku Benyamin mereka menerima empat kota, yaitu: Gibeon, Geba, Anatot dan Almon.
From the tribes of Judah and Simeon, they assigned land to the following cities, here listed by name.
These cities were given to the descendants of Aaron, who were among the clans of the Kohathites, who in turn were from the tribe of Levi. For the first casting of lots had fallen to them.
The Israelites gave them Kiriath Arba (Arba had been the father of Anak), the same place as Hebron, in the hill country of Judah, with the pasturelands around it.
But the fields of the city, including their villages, were already given to Caleb son of Jephunneh, as his possession.
To the descendants of Aaron the priest they gave Hebron with its pasturelands—which was a city of refuge for any who killed another unintentionally—and Libnah with its pasturelands,
Jattir with its pasturelands, and Eshtemoa with its pasturelands.
They also gave Holon with its pasturelands, Debir with its pasturelands,
Ain with its pasturelands, Juttah with its pasturelands, and Beth Shemesh with its pasturelands. There were nine cities that were given from these two tribes.
From the tribe of Benjamin were given Gibeon with its pasturelands, Geba with its pasturelands,
Anathoth with its pasturelands, and Almon with its suburbs—four cities.
The cities given to the priests, the descendants of Aaron, were thirteen cities in all, including their pasturelands.
20 Keluarga-keluarga lainnya dari kaum Kehat diberi sepuluh kota dengan tanah-tanah padangnya. Dari suku Efraim mereka menerima empat kota, yaitu: Bet-Horon, Kibzaim, Gezer dan Sikhem, sebuah kota suaka di pegunungan Efraim. Dari suku Dan mereka menerima empat kota, yaitu: Elteke, Gibeton, Ayalon dan Gat-Rimon. Dari suku Manasye yang di sebelah barat mereka menerima dua kota, yaitu: Taanakh dan Gat-Rimon.
As for the rest of Kohathites who belong to the Kohathite clans of the Levites—they had cities given to them from the tribe of Ephraim by the casting of lots.
To them were given Shechem with its pasturelands in the hill country of Ephraim—a city of refuge for any who killed a person unintentionally—Gezer with its pasturelands,
Kibzaim with its pasturelands, and Beth Horon with its pasturelands—four cities in all.
From the tribe of Dan, the clan of Kohath was given Eltekeh with its pasturelands, Gibbethon with its pasturelands,
Aijalon with its pasturelands, and Gath Rimmon with its pasturelands—four cities in all.
From the half tribe of Manasseh, the clan of Kohath was given Taanach with its pasturelands and Gath Rimmon with its pasturelands—two cities.
There were ten cities in all for the rest of the clans of the Kohathites, including their pasturelands.
27 Sebuah kaum lain dalam suku Lewi ialah kaum Gerson. Keluarga-keluarga dalam kaum Gerson itu diberi tiga belas kota dengan tanah-tanah padangnya. Dari suku Manasye yang di sebelah timur mereka menerima dua kota, yaitu: Beestera dan Golan, sebuah kota suaka di daerah Basan. Dari suku Isakhar mereka menerima empat kota, yaitu: Kisyon, Dobrat, Yarmut dan En-Ganim. Dari suku Asyer mereka menerima empat kota, yaitu: Misal, Abdon, Helkat dan Rehob. Dari suku Naftali mereka menerima tiga buah kota, yaitu: Hamat-Dor, Kartan dan Kedes, sebuah kota suaka di Galilea.
From the half tribe of Manasseh, to clans of Gershon, these were other Levite clans, and they gave Golan in Bashan with its pasturelands—a city of refuge for anyone who killed another unintentionally, along with Be Eshterah with its pasturelands—two cities in all.
To the clans of Gershon they also gave Kishion from the tribe of Issachar, along with its pasturelands, Daberath with its pasturelands,

There were thirteen cities in all, out of the clans of Gershon, including their pasturelands.
34 Kaum yang sisa dalam suku Lewi, yaitu kaum Merari diberi dua belas kota dengan tanah-tanah padangnya. Dari suku Zebulon mereka menerima empat kota, yaitu: Yokneam, Karta, Dimna dan Nahalal. Dari suku Ruben mereka menerima empat kota, yaitu Bezer, Yahas, Kedemot dan Mefaat. Dari suku Gad mereka menerima empat kota, yaitu: Mahanaim, Hesybon, Yaezer dan Ramot, sebuah kota suaka di Gilead.
To the rest of the Levites—the clans of Merari—were given out of the tribe of Zebulun: Jokneam with its pasturelands, Kartah with its pasturelands,

To the clans of Merari were given from the tribe of Reuben: Bezer with its pasturelands, Jahaz with its pasturelands,

Out of the tribe of Gad they were given Ramoth in Gilead with its pasturelands—a city of refuge for any who killed another unintentionally—and Mahanaim with its pasturelands.
The clans of Merari were also given Heshbon with its pasturelands, and Jazer with its pasturelands. These were four cities in all.
All these were the cities of the several clans of Merari, who were from the tribe of Levi—twelve cities in all were given to them by the casting of lots.
41 Jadi dari tanah-tanah yang dimiliki seluruh bangsa Israel ada sejumlah empat puluh delapan kota dengan tanah-tanah padang di sekitarnya yang diberikan kepada orang-orang Lewi.
The cities of the Levites taken from the middle of the land possessed by the people of Israel were forty-eight cities, including their pasturelands.
These cities each had its surrounding pasturelands. It was this way with all these cities.
43 Demikianlah TUHAN memberikan kepada umat Israel seluruh tanah yang telah dijanjikan-Nya dengan sumpah kepada nenek moyang mereka. Setelah menduduki negeri itu, umat Israel menetap di sana.
So Yahweh gave to Israel all the land that he swore to give to their ancestors. The Israelites took possession of it and settled there.
44 Maka sesuai dengan apa yang dijanjikan TUHAN kepada nenek moyang mereka, negeri itu aman karena dilindungi TUHAN. Musuh-musuh mereka tidak satu pun yang dapat melawan mereka, sebab TUHAN memberi kemenangan kepada orang Israel atas semua musuh mereka.
Then Yahweh gave them rest on every side, just as he had sworn to their ancestors. Not one of their enemies could defeat them. Yahweh gave all their enemies into their hand.
45 TUHAN menepati setiap janji-Nya kepada umat Israel; tidak satu pun yang tidak ditepati-Nya.
Not one thing among all the good promises that Yahweh had spoken to the house of Israel failed to come true. All of them came to be.
