1 Hanki Israeli vahe'mo'za mago'a mopama omerite'za Sailo kumate omeritru hu'za, atruma hu'za mono'ma hu seli nona ki'naze.

The land had been subdued and lay before them. The Israelites gathered together at Shiloh and set up the Tent of Meeting.

2 Hianagi Israeli naga'pintira 7ni'a naga nofi'mo'za mopa erisanti ohare'nazageno,

However, seven of the Israelite tribes had not received their land allocations.

3 Josua'a Israeli vahera amanage huno zamasami'ne, Ra Anumzana tamafahe'i Anumzamo mopa ko tami'neanki, na'anku avega anteta mani'neta ufreta mopa e'norize?

So Joshua asked the Israelites, “How long will you go on being reluctant to go and take possession of the land that the Lord gave your forefathers?

4 Hanki mago'mago naga nofipintira 3'a vene'ne hu hamprizmantenke'na nagra hu zamantesuge'za vu'za ana mopa inankna mopao ome nege'za, mago mago'mo'ma erisantima haresia avamente avon tafepi krenente'za ete'za nagrite eri'za eho.

Choose three men from each tribe and I will send them out to explore the land. Then they can write a description regarding the land allocations and bring it to me.

5 Hagi tamagra mopa 7ni'afi refko huntenkeno, Juda naga'mo'za sauti kaziga zamagra'a mopafi manisage'za, Josefe naga'mo'za noti kaziga zamagra'a mopafi mani fatgo hugahaze.

They are to divide the land into seven parts, up to the boundary of Judah's land in the south and Joseph's land in the north.

6 Anama hutetma ana 7ni'a mopamofo naneke'a avon tafepi kretetma, nagrite eritma enke'na mago mago nagamo'a ina mopa erigahifi, Ra Anumzana tagri Anumzamofo avure satu zokagoreta iza mopa erigahifi kegahune.

Once you have written the description the land, dividing it in seven parts, you will bring it to me here and I will cast lots for you in the presence of the Lord our God.

7 Na'ankure Livae naga'mo'za mopa e'ori'nazanki, Anumzamofo eri'zama erisnafinti erisantiharegahaze. Hagi Gati nagaki, Rubeni naga'ene, Manase nagara amu'nompinti refko hazage'za, Jodani timofo kantu zage hanati kaziga, Ra Anumzamofo eri'za ne' Mosese'ma zami'nea mopa eri'naze.

But the Levites do not receive a share, for their role as priests of the Lord is their allocation. Also, Gad, Reuben, and the half-tribe of Manasseh have already received their allocation that Moses, the servant of the Lord, gave them on the east side of the Jordan.”

8 Hagi mopamofo agema'ama avontafepi krente vahe'mo'za otizageno, Josua'a amanage huno zamasami'ne, ana maka mopafi vutma vararetma ketetma, inankna mopa me'nefi agi agenkea avompi krentetetma ete nagrite Sailo enke'na, Ra Anumzamofo avure satu zokagore'na, ina mopa zamigahifi ka'neno.

As the men started out on their way to explore the land. Joshua told them, “Go throughout the land and write a description of what you find. Then return to me and I will cast lots for you in the presence of the Lord here in Shiloh.”

9 Hige'za zamagra anantetira atre'za vu'za ana mika mopa ome vano hu'za kete'za, ana moparamimofo nanekea avontafepi krente'naze. Ranra kumatmina agateore ana maka 7ni'afima regitagi'naza mopa ke vagarete'za, Josua'ma kuma'ma anteno Sailoma mani'nere ete'za e'naze.

So the men went and explored the land and wrote down on a scroll a description of the seven parts, recording the towns in each part. Then they returned to Joshua at the camp in Shiloh

10 Anante Sailo kumate Josua'a Ra Anumzamofo avure satu zokago reno keteno, anante Israeli vahe'mokizmia nagate nofite huno mopa refko huno zami'ne.

11 Hanki Benzameni naga'mo'zama nagate nofite hu'zama mopama refko hu'za eri'nazana, Juda naga'ene Josefe naga'mokizmi mopamofo amu'nozmifi me'nea mopa erisantihare'naze.

The first lot cast went to the tribe of Benjamin, by families. The land allotted lay between that of the tribe of Judah and the tribe of Joseph.

12 Noti kaziga mopazmimofo agema'amo'a Jodani tinteti agafa huteno vuno, Jeriko noti kaziga me'nea agonaramimofo asoparega vuno, agatereno zage ufre kaziga me'nea agonaramimpi ufreno ka'ma mopafi Bet Aveni uhanati'ne.

Their boundary began at the Jordan, and went north of the slope of Jericho, west through the hill country, coming out at the wilderness of Beth-aven.

Here the boundary turned south along the western side of the mountain facing Beth-horon, finishing at Kiriath-baal (or Kiriath-jearim), a town of the tribe of Judah. This was the western boundary.

From there it headed north to En-shemesh and on to Geliloth, opposite the heights of Adummim, and then on down to the Stone of Bohan (Reuben's son).

18 Anantetira mago'ene mopamofo agema'amo'a vuvava huno noti kaziga Bet Araba me'nea agonarega vuteno, vuno Jodani tima enevia agupofi urami'ne.

Then it went along the ridge opposite the Jordan Valley to the north, and then down into the Jordan Valley itself.
