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 and very advanced in years; and the Lord said to Joshua, You are advanced in years, and there is much land left to inherit.
2 Tala mokili oyo etikali: Bituka nyonso ya bato ya Filisitia mpe ya bato ya Geshuri:
And this [is] the land that is left: the borders of the Phylistines, the Gesirite, and the Chananite,

And all the land of Galiath of the Phylistines, and all Libanus eastward from Galgal, under the mountain Aermon as far as the entering in of Emath;
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;
every one that inhabits the hill country from Libanus as far as Masereth Memphomaim. All the Sidonians, I will destroy them from before Israel; but do you give them by inheritance to Israel, as I charged you.
7 mpe kabola yango lokola libula kati na mabota libwa mpe ndambo ya libota ya Manase. »
And now divide this land by lot to the nine tribes, and to the half tribe of Manasse.
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.
From Jordan to the great sea westward you shall give it [them]: the great sea shall be the boundary. [But] to the two tribes and to the half tribe of Manasse, to Ruben and to Gad Moses gave [an inheritance] beyond Jordan: Moses the servant of the Lord gave [it] to them eastward,
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 brook of Arnon, and the city in the midst of the valley, and all Misor from Maedaban.

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 the region of Basan, who reigned in Astaroth and in Edrain: he was left of the giants; and Moses struck him, and destroyed him.
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 destroyed not the Gesirite and the Machatite and the Chananite; and the king of the Gesiri and the Machatite lived among the children of Israel until 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 no inheritance was given to the tribe of Levi: the Lord God of Israel, he [is] their inheritance, as the Lord said to them; and this [is] the division which Moses made to the children of Israel in Araboth Moab, on the other side of Jordan, by Jericho.
