Yoswa 13
1 Awo Yoswa bwe yali ng’akaddiye ng’amaze emyaka mingi. Mukama n’amugamba nti, “Okaddiye omaze emyaka mingi naye, wakyaliwo ensi nnyingi nnyo ez’okuwangula.
Now Joshua was old, well stricken in years; and the Lord said unto him, Thou art old, stricken in years, and of the land there remaineth yet very much to be taken possession of.
2 “Zino z’ensi ezikyaliwo: “ensi yonna ey’Abafirisuuti n’Abaseguli
This is the land that yet remaineth: All the circles of the Philistines, and all [the land of the] Geshurites,
3 okuva ku mugga Sikoli oguli ebuvanjuba wa Misiri, n’okwambukira ddala ku nsalo y’e Ekuloni emanyiddwa nga ey’Abakanani, eriyo abafuzi bataano ab’Abafirisuuti, ow’e Gaza, n’ow’e Asudodi, n’ow’e Asukulooni, n’ow’e Gaasi n’ow’e Ekuloni awamu n’Abavi.
From the Shichor, which runneth before Egypt, even unto the boundary of 'Ekron northward, is counted to the Canaanites; the five lords of the Philistines; the Gazzathites, and the Ashdodites, the Eshkelonites, the Gittites, and the 'Ekronites; also the 'Avvim;
4 Okuva mu bukiikaddyo ensi yonna ey’Abakanani, ne Meyala ekya Basidoni, okutuuka ku Afiki, ku nsalo ey’Abamoli,
On the south, all the land of the Canaanites, and Me'arah that belongeth to the Zidonians, up to Aphek, up to the border of the Emorites;
5 n’ensi y’Abagebali, ne Lebanooni yonna, ne ku luuyi olw’ebuvanjuba, n’okuva ku Baalugadi wansi w’olusozi Kerumooni okutuuka w’oyingirira e Kamasi.
And the land of the Giblites, and all Lebanon, toward the rising of the sun, from Ba'al-gad under mount Chermon up to the entrance of Chamath.
6 “N’abantu bonna ab’omu nsozi za Lebanooni okutuuka ku Misurefosumayima, be Basidoni bonna; nze kennyini ndibagoba mbaggye mu maaso g’abaana ba Isirayiri. Kakasa nti ensi eno ogigabira abaana ba Isirayiri nga bwe nakulagira.
All the inhabitants of the mountain from Lebanon unto Missrephoth-mayim, all the Zidonians: these will I drive out from before the children of Israel; only divide thou it by lot unto the Israelites for an inheritance, as I have commanded thee.
7 Noolwekyo ojja kugigabanya ng’omugabo eri ebika omwenda era n’ekitundu ky’ekika kya Manase.”
And now divide this land for an inheritance unto the nine tribes, and the half tribe of Menasseh.
8 Ekitundu ekirala ekya Manase, n’Abalewubeeni n’Abagaadi ne baweebwa omugabo gwabwe, Musa bwe yabawa emitala wa Yoludaani ku luuyi olw’ebuvanjuba nga Musa omuweereza wa Mukama bwe yabagabira.
With him the Reubenites and the Gadites have received their inheritance, which Moses gave unto them, beyond the Jordan eastward, as Moses the servant of the Lord hath given them;
9 Okuva ku Aloweri ekiri ku mabbali g’ekiwonvu ekya Alunoni, n’ekibuga ekiri wakati mu kiwonvu, n’olusenyi lwonna olwa Medeba okutuuka ku Diboni;
From 'Aro'er, that is upon the bank of the brook Arnon, and the city that is in the midst of the brook, and all the plain of Medeba up to Dibon;
10 n’ebibuga byonna ebya Sikoni kabaka w’Abamoli, eyafuga mu Kesuboni, okutuuka ku nsalo y’abaana ba Amoni.
And all the cities of Sichon the king of the Emorites, who reigned over Cheshbon, up to the border of the children of 'Ammon;
11 Era kyatwaliramu Gireyaadi, n’ekitundu ky’Abagesuli, n’Abamaakasi, n’olusozi lwonna Kerumooni ne Basani yonna okutuukira ddala ku Saleka.
And Gil'ad, and the territory of the Geshurites and Ma'achathites, and all mount Chermon, and all Bashan up to Salchah;
12 Obwakabaka bwonna obwa Ogi mu Basani, eyali afuga mu Asutaloosi ne mu Ederei, ye yali asigaddewo yekka ku Balefa, bwawangulwa Musa n’atwala ensi yaabwe.
All the kingdom of 'Og in Bashan, who reigned in 'Ashtaroth and in Edre'i; who had been left of the remnant of the Rephaim; and Moses smote them, and cast them out.
13 Naye abaana ba Isirayiri tebaawangula Bagesuli wadde Abamaakasi, bwe kityo Abagesuli n’Abamaakasi ne babeera wakati mu bo ne leero.
Nevertheless the children of Israel expelled not the Geshurites and the Ma'achathites; but the Geshurites and the Ma'achathites continued to dwell in the midst of the Israelites until this day.
14 Ekika kya Leevi kyokka Musa ky’ataawa mugabo, ebiweebwayo ebyokebwa n’omuliro eri Mukama Katonda wa Isirayiri, gwe mugabo gwe nga bwe yamugamba.
Only unto the tribe of Levi he gave no inheritance: the fire-offerings of the Lord, the God of Israel, are their inheritance, as he hath spoken unto them.
15 Musa yagabira ekika ky’abaana ba Lewubeeni ng’enju zaabwe bwe zaali:
And Moses gave unto the tribe of the children of Reuben according to their families;
16 Ensalo yaabwe ng’eva ku Aloweri, ekiri ku mabbali g’ekiwonvu eky’Alunoni, n’ekibuga ekiri wakati mu kiwonvu, n’olusenyi lwonna oluliraanye Medeba,
And their territory was from 'Aro'er, that is on the bank of the brook Arnon, and the city that is in the midst of the brook, and all the plain by Medeba;
17 ne Kesuboni, n’ebibuga byakyo byonna ebiri mu lusenyi, ne Diboni ne Bamosi Baali, ne Besubaalumyoni;
Cheshbon, and all its cities that are in the plain; Dibon, and Bamoth-ba'al, and Beth-ba'al-me'on,
18 ne Yakazi, ne Kedemosi, ne Mefaasi;
And Yahzah, and Kedemoth, and Mepha'ath,
19 ne Kiriyasayimu, ne Sibuma, ne Zeresusakali ku lusozi olw’Ekiwonvu,
And Kiryathayim, and Sibmah, and Zereth-hashachar on the mount of the valley,
20 ne Besupyoli ne Pisuga awayambukirwa ku lusozi, ne Besu Yesimosi,
And Beth-pe'or, and the declivities of Pisgah, and Beth-hayeshimoth,
21 n’ebibuga byonna eby’omu lusenyi, n’obwakabaka bwonna obwa Sikoni kabaka w’Abamoli, eyafugira mu Kesuboni, Musa gwe yawangula awamu n’abaami abaali bafuga ab’e Midiyaani, eri ne Lekemu, ne Zuuli, ne Kuli ne Leba, n’abalangira ba Sikoni abaabeeranga mu nsi.
And all the cities of the plain, and all the kingdom of Sichon the king of the Emorites, who reigned in Cheshbon, whom Moses smote with the princes of Midian, Evi, and Rekem, and Zur, and Chur, and Reba', the dukes of Sichon, the dwellers of the country.
22 Era ne mu abo be batta n’ekitala, abaana ba Isirayiri battiramu n’omulaguzi Balamu omwana wa Byoli.
And Bil'am the son of Be'or, the soothsayer, did the children of Israel slay with the sword among their slain.
23 Era n’ensalo y’abaana ba Lewubeeni yali omugga Yoludaani. Ebibuga n’ebyalo byamu Musa yabiwa abaana ba Lewubeeni okuba omugabo gwabwe.
And the boundary of the children of Reuben was the Jordan, and its bordering territory. This was the inheritance of the children of Reuben after their families, the cities and their villages.
24 Musa yagabira ekika kya Gaadi omugabo ng’enju zaabwe bwe zaali:
And Moses gave unto the tribe of Gad, unto the children of Gad according to their families;
25 Ettaka lyabwe lyali Yazeri, n’ebibuga byonna ebya Gireyaadi, n’ekitundu ky’ensi y’abaana ba Amoni, okutuuka ku Aloweri okumpi ne Labba,
And their territory was Ya'zer, and all the cities of Gil'ad, and half the land of the children of 'Ammon, up to 'Aro'er that is before Rabbah;
26 n’okuva e Kesuboni okutuuka ku Lamasumizupe, ne Betonimu, era n’okuva ku Makanayimu okutuuka mu nsi y’e Debiri,
And from Cheshbon unto Ramath-mizpeh, and Betonim; and from Machanayim up to the border of Debir;
27 ne mu kiwonvu, Besukalamu, ne Besu Nimira, ne Sukkosi, ne Zafoni, n’ekitundu ekyasigalawo ekyobwakabaka bwa Sikoni kabaka ow’e Kesuboni, Yoludaani n’ensalo yaagwo, okutuuka ku lubalama lw’ennyanja ey’e Kinneresi emitala wa Yoludaani ku luuyi olw’ebuvanjuba.
And in the valley, Beth-haram, and Beth-nimrah, and Succoth, and Zaphon, the rest of the kingdom of Sichon the king of Cheshbon, the Jordan and its bordering territory, up to the edge of the sea of Kinnereth on the other side of the Jordan eastward.
28 Eyo y’ensi eyafuuka omugabo gw’abaana ba Gaadi ng’enju zaabwe bwe zaali, ebibuga n’ebyalo byamu.
This is the inheritance of the children of Gad after their families, the cities and their villages.
29 Musa n’awa ekitundu ky’ekika kya Manase omugabo gwabwe, abaana ba Manase ne bagabirwa omugabo ng’enju zaabwe bwe zaali.
And Moses gave unto the half tribe of Menasseh; and it belonged to the half tribe of the children of Menasseh after their families;
30 N’ensalo yaabwe ng’eya Makanayimu, n’eyita mu Basani n’obwakabaka bwonna obwa Ogi kabaka w’e Basani, n’ebibuga ebya Yayiri, ebiri mu Basani ebibuga nkaaga;
And their territory was from Machanayim, all Bashan, all the kingdom of 'Og the king of Bashan, and all the villages of Ya'ir, which are in Bashan, sixty cities;
31 n’ekitundu ekimu ekya Gireyaadi ne Asutaloosi, ne Ederei, ebibuga eby’obwakabaka bwa Ogi mu Basani byali b’abaana ba Makiri omwana wa Manase, ekitundu eky’abaana ba Makiri ng’enju zaabwe bwe zaali.
And half Gil'ad and 'Ashtaroth, and Edre'i, the cities of the kingdom of 'Og in Bashan, [belonged] unto the children of Machir the son of Menasseh, even to the one half of the children of Machir after their families.
32 Ogwo gwe mugabo Musa gwe yagaba mu nsenyi eza Mowaabu, emitala wa Yoludaani ebuvanjuba bwa Yeriko.
These are they to whom Moses did distribute an inheritance in the plans of Moab, on the other side of the Jordan, by Jericho, eastward.
33 Naye ekika kya Leevi Musa teyakiwa mugabo. Mukama Katonda wa Isirayiri, ye mugabo gwabwe gwe yabawa, nga Mukama bwe yabasuubiza.
But unto the tribe of Levi Moses gave not any inheritance: the Lord the God of Israel is himself their inheritance, as he hath spoken unto them.
