Zosua 18
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 Israeli people captured all the land [that they were able to], but there were still seven tribes that had not been allotted any land. The Israeli people all gathered at Shiloh, and they set up the Sacred Tent there.
2 Hianagi Israeli naga'pintira 7ni'a naga nofi'mo'za mopa erisanti ohare'nazageno,
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?
Joshua said to them, “Why are you waiting a long time to take control of [the rest of] the land that Yahweh, the God whom your ancestors [worshiped], has promised to give to you [RHQ]?
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 of your seven tribes. Then I will send them to explore [the parts of] the land [which you have not occupied yet. When they finish exploring it], they must write a report, in which they will (make a map/show the boundaries) of the land that each tribe wants to receive.
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 will divide the remaining land into seven parts. The tribe of Judah will keep its land in the south, and the tribes of Ephraim and Manasseh will keep their 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.
But in their report, the men from the seven tribes should describe the seven parts of the remaining land [that they wish to receive], and bring the report to me. While Yahweh is watching, I will (cast lots/throw marked stones) [to decide which land should be allotted to each tribe].
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 tribe of Levi will not be allotted any land, because their [reward is that they will be] Yahweh’s priests. The tribes of Gad, Reuben, and half the tribe of Manasseh have already been allotted their land on the east side of the Jordan [River], just as Moses, the man who served God [well], decided, [so they will not get any more land].”
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.
When the men who were chosen [got ready to] leave, Joshua told them, “Go and explore the land. Then write a report of what you have seen, and bring it back to me. Then while Yahweh is watching, I will (cast lots/throw marked stones) here at Shiloh, [to determine what area each tribe will receive].”
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 left and walked through the area. Then they described in a scroll each town that was in the seven parts [into which they had divided] the land. Then they returned to Joshua, who was still at 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.
[After Joshua read their report], while Yahweh was watching, he (cast lots/threw marked stones) to choose which land would be allotted to each of the seven Israeli tribes.
