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.
And Joshua is old, entering into days, and Jehovah saith unto him, 'Thou hast become aged, thou hast entered into days; as to the land, very much hath been left to possess.
2 “Zino z’ensi ezikyaliwo: “ensi yonna ey’Abafirisuuti n’Abaseguli
'This [is] the land that is left; all the circuits of the Philistines, and all Geshuri,
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.

4 Okuva mu bukiikaddyo ensi yonna ey’Abakanani, ne Meyala ekya Basidoni, okutuuka ku Afiki, ku nsalo ey’Abamoli,
'From the south, all the land of the Canaanite, and Mearah, which [is] to the Sidonians, unto Aphek, unto the border of the Amorite;
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 Giblite, and all Lebanon, at the sun-rising, from Baal-Gad under mount Hermon, unto the going in to Hamath:
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 hill-country, from Lebanon unto Misrephoth-Maim, all the Sidonians: I — I dispossess them before the sons of Israel; only, cause it to fall to Israel 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, apportion this land for an inheritance to the nine tribes, and the half of the tribe of Manasseh,' —
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 it the Reubenite, and the Gadite, have received their inheritance, which Moses hath given to them beyond the Jordan eastward, as Moses servant of Jehovah hath given to them;

from Aroer, which [is] on the edge of the brook Arnon, and the city which [is] in the midst of the brook, and all the plain of Medeba unto Dihon,
10 n’ebibuga byonna ebya Sikoni kabaka w’Abamoli, eyafuga mu Kesuboni, okutuuka ku nsalo y’abaana ba Amoni.
and all the cities of Sihon king of the Amorite, who reigned in Heshbon, unto the border of the Bene-Ammon,

all the kingdom of Og in Bashan, who reigned in Ashtaroth and in Edrei; he was left of the remnant of the Rephaim, and Moses doth smite them, and dispossess them;
13 Naye abaana ba Isirayiri tebaawangula Bagesuli wadde Abamaakasi, bwe kityo Abagesuli n’Abamaakasi ne babeera wakati mu bo ne leero.
and the sons of Israel dispossessed not the Geshurite, and the Maachathite; and Geshur and Maachath dwell in the midst of Israel unto 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, to the tribe of Levi he hath not given an inheritance; fire-offerings of Jehovah, God of Israel, is its inheritance, as He hath spoken to it.
15 Musa yagabira ekika ky’abaana ba Lewubeeni ng’enju zaabwe bwe zaali:
And Moses giveth to the tribe of the sons of Reuben, for their families;

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 Sihon king of the Amorite, who reigned in Heshbon, whom Moses smote, with the princes of Midian, Evi, and Rekem, and Zur, and Hur, and Reba, princes of Sihon, inhabitants of the land.
22 Era ne mu abo be batta n’ekitala, abaana ba Isirayiri battiramu n’omulaguzi Balamu omwana wa Byoli.
And Balaam, son of Beor, the diviner, have the sons of Israel slain with the sword, among their wounded ones.
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 border of the sons of Reuben is the Jordan, and [its] border; this [is] the inheritance of the sons of Reuben, for their families, the cities and their villages.
24 Musa yagabira ekika kya Gaadi omugabo ng’enju zaabwe bwe zaali:

and the border is to them Jazer, and all the cities of Gilead, and the half of the land of the Bene-Ammon, unto Aroer which [is] on the front of Rabbah,

and from Heshbon unto Ramath-Mispeh, and Betonim, and from Mahanaim unto the border of Debir,

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 sons of Gad, for their families, the cities and their villages.

And Moses giveth to the half of the tribe of Manasseh; and it is to the half of the tribe of the sons of Manasseh, for 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 border is from Mahanaim, all Bashan, all the kingdom of Og king of Bashan, and all the small towns of Jair, 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 the half of Gilead, and Ashteroth, and Edrei, cities of the kingdom of Og in Bashan, [are] to the sons of Machir, son of Manasseh, to the half of the sons of Machir, for their families.

These [are] they whom Moses caused to inherit in the plains of Moab, beyond the Jordan, [by] Jericho, eastward;

and to the tribe of Levi Moses gave not an inheritance; Jehovah, God of Israel, Himself [is] their inheritance, as He hath spoken to them.
