Jozue 13

1 Tango Jozue akomaki mobange mpe mibu ya bomoi na ye epusanaki makasi, Yawe alobaki na ye: « Okomi mpe mobange makasi, mibu ya bomoi na yo esili kopusana mingi. Kasi mokili oyo bosengeli kobotola ezali nanu monene.

And Joshua was old, advanced in age, and Jehovah said to him, Thou art old, advanced in age, and there remaineth yet very much land to take possession of.

2 Tala mokili oyo etikali: Bituka nyonso ya bato ya Filisitia mpe ya bato ya Geshuri:

This is the land that yet remaineth: all the districts of the Philistines and all the Geshurites,

3 etuka oyo batangaka na molongo ya mikili ya Kanana; wuta na ebale ya Shiyori, oyo etalana na Ejipito kino na ngambo ya nor, na etuka ya Ekroni. Kuna, ezalaki na bakambi mitano ya bato ya Filisitia: mokambi ya Gaza, ya Asidodi, ya Ashikeloni, ya Gati mpe ya Ekroni; etuka ya bato ya Avi;

from the Shihor, which [floweth] before Egypt, as far as the borders of Ekron northward, [and which] is counted to the Canaanite; five lordships of the Philistines: of Gazah, and of Ashdod, of Eshkalon, of Gath, and of Ekron; also the Avvites;

4 mpe wuta na ngambo ya sude, mokili mobimba ya bato ya Kanana mpe Meara oyo ezalaki mokili ya bato ya Sidoni kino na Afeki, kino na bandelo ya bato ya Amori;

in the south, the whole land of the Canaanites, and Mearah which [belongeth] to the Sidonians, unto Aphek, to the border of the Amorites;

5 etuka ya bato ya Gebali; mpe ngambo nyonso ya este ya Libani, wuta na Bala-Gadi, na ebandeli ya ngomba Erimoni kino na Lebo-Amati.

and the land of the Giblites, and all Lebanon, toward the sun-rising, from Baal-Gad at the foot of mount Hermon to the entrance into Hamath;

6 Mpo na bavandi nyonso ya etuka ya bangomba, wuta na Libani kino na Misirefoti-Mayimi, bato nyonso ya Sidoni, nakobengana bango Ngai moko liboso ya Isalaele. Sala keba ete opesa mokili yango lokola libula epai ya Isalaele, ndenge kaka natindaki yo;

all the inhabitants of the hill-country from Lebanon to Misrephoth-maim, all the Sidonians; I will dispossess them from before the children of Israel. Only, partition it by lot to Israel for an inheritance, as I have commanded thee.

7 mpe kabola yango lokola libula kati na mabota libwa mpe ndambo ya libota ya Manase. »

And now divide this land for an inheritance to the nine tribes, and to half the tribe of Manasseh;

8 Bato ya ndambo mosusu ya libota ya Manase, elongo na bato ya libota ya Ribeni mpe ya Gadi bazwaki libula oyo Moyize, mowumbu na Yawe, apesaki bango na ngambo ya este ya Yordani.

with him the Reubenites and the Gadites have received their inheritance, which Moses gave them, beyond the Jordan eastward, as Moses the servant of Jehovah gave them:

9 Ezalaki wuta na Aroeri, pene ya moluka ya Arinoni, wuta na engumba oyo ezali na kati-kati ya lubwaku, bakisa ngomba mobimba Medeba kino na Diboni,

from Aroer, which is on the bank of the river Arnon, and the city that is in the midst of the ravine, and all the plateau of Medeba to Dibon,

10 mpe bingumba nyonso ya Sikoni, mokonzi ya bato ya Amori, oyo azalaki kokonza na Eshiboni kino na bandelo ya bato ya Amoni.

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

11 Galadi mpe ezalaki na kati, elongo na etuka ya bato ya Geshuri mpe ya Maakati, ngomba Erimoni nyonso mpe Bashani mobimba kino na Salika.

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

12 Bashani mobimba, mokili ya Ogi, lokola moko kati na bato ya suka ya Refayimi oyo azalaki kokonza na Ashitaroti mpe na Edreyi, ezalaki mpe kati na libula na bango. Moyize alongaki bango mpe abotolaki bango mokili na bango.

all the kingdom of Og in Bashan, who reigned at Ashtaroth and at Edrei, who remained of the residue of the giants; and Moses smote them and dispossessed them.

13 Kasi bana ya Isalaele babenganaki te bato ya Geshuri mpe ya Maakati; yango wana bakobaki kovanda elongo na bana ya Isalaele kino na mokolo ya lelo.

But the children of Israel did not dispossess the Geshurites nor the Maachathites; but the Geshurites and the Maachathites dwell among the Israelites to this day.

14 Nzokande, Moyize apesaki libula te epai ya libota ya Levi, pamba te libula na bango ezali makabo bazikisa na moto mpo na Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele, ndenge Yawe alakaki bango.

Only to the tribe of Levi he gave no inheritance: the offerings by fire of Jehovah the God of Israel are their inheritance, as he said to them.

15 Tala eteni ya mabele oyo Moyize apesaki na libota ya Ribeni, kolanda bituka na bango:

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

16 Mabele oyo ezwamaki wuta na Aroeri, pene ya moluka ya Arinoni, wuta na engumba oyo ezali na kati-kati ya lubwaku, bakisa ngomba Medeba mobimba,

And their territory was from Aroer, which is on the bank of the river Arnon, and the city that is in the midst of the ravine, and all the plateau by Medeba;

20 Beti-Peori, mipanzi ya ngomba Pisiga mpe Beti-Yeshimoti:

and Beth-Peor, and the slopes of Pisgah, and Beth-jeshimoth;

21 bingumba nyonso ya ngomba mpe mokili mobimba ya Sikoni, mokonzi ya bato ya Amori oyo azalaki kokonza na Eshiboni. Moyize alongaki ye elongo na bakambi ya Madiani: Evi, Rekemi, Tsuri, Wuri mpe Reba, oyo bazalaki kosalela Sikoni mpe kovanda na mokili na ye.

all the cities of the plateau, and the whole kingdom of Sihon the king of the Amorites, who reigned at Heshbon, whom Moses smote, him and the princes of Midian, Evi, and Rekem, and Zur, and Hur, and Reba, the chiefs of Sihon dwelling in the land.

22 Kati na bato oyo babomaki na bitumba, bana ya Isalaele babomaki mpe na mopanga Balami, mwana mobali ya Beori, moto oyo asololaka na milimo ya bakufi.

And Balaam the son of Beor, the diviner, did the children of Israel kill with the sword among them that were slain by them.

23 Mondelo ya bato ya libota ya Ribeni ezalaki nde Yordani. Bingumba oyo mpe bamboka na yango ya mike-mike nde ezalaki libula oyo bapesaki na bato ya libota ya Ribeni, kolanda bituka na bango.

And the border of the children of Reuben was the Jordan, and [its] border. This is the inheritance of the children of Reuben according to their families, the cities and their hamlets.

24 Tala eteni ya mabele oyo Moyize apesaki na libota ya Gadi, kolanda bituka na bango:

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

25 Etuka ya Yaezeri, bingumba nyonso ya Galadi, mpe ndambo ya mokili ya bato ya Amoni kino na Aroeri oyo etalana na Raba;

And their territory was Jaazer, and all the cities of Gilead, and half the land of the children of Ammon, to Aroer which is before Rabbah;

26 mpe wuta na Eshiboni kino na Ramati-Mitsipe mpe Betonimi, wuta na Maanayimi kino na mondelo ya Debiri;

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

28 Bingumba oyo mpe bamboka na yango ya mike-mike nde ezalaki libula oyo bapesaki na bato ya libota ya Gadi, kolanda bituka na bango.

This is the inheritance of the children of Gad according to their families, the cities and their hamlets.

29 Tala eteni ya mabele oyo Moyize apesaki na ndambo ya libota ya Manase, kolanda bituka na bango:

And Moses gave [a portion] to half the tribe of Manasseh; and for half the tribe of the children of Manasseh according to their families:

30 Mabele oyo ezwamaki wuta na Maanayimi, bakisa mokili mobimba ya Bashani, mokili ya Ogi, mokonzi ya Bashani, mpe bamboka mike-mike nyonso ya Yairi oyo ezalaka na Bashani, bingumba tuku motoba,

their territory was from Mahanaim, all Bashan, the whole kingdom of Og the king of Bashan, and all the villages of Jair, which are in Bashan, sixty cities.

31 ndambo ya mokili ya Galadi; Ashitaroti mpe Edreyi, bingumba ya bokonzi ya Ogi kati na Bashani; ezalaki mpo na bakitani ya Makiri, mwana mobali, ya Manase mpo na ndambo ya bakitani ya Makiri, kolanda bituka na bango.

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

32 Yango nde libula oyo Moyize apesaki tango azalaki na etando ya Moabi, na ngambo ya Yordani, na ngambo ya este ya Jeriko.

This is that which Moses allotted for inheritance in the plains of Moab, beyond the Jordan of Jericho, eastward.

33 Kasi Moyize apesaki libula te epai ya libota ya Levi, pamba te Ye moko Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele, nde azali libula na bango, ndenge alakaki bango.

But to the tribe of Levi Moses gave no inheritance: Jehovah the God of Israel is their inheritance, as he said to them.
