Josoa 18
1 Nifanontoñe e Silò i valobohò’ o ana’Israeleoy vaho natroa’ iereo i kibohom-pamantañañey, naho fa niambaneañe i taney.
And the whole congregation of the children of Israel assembled together at Shiloh, and set up the tabernacle of the congregation there. And the land was subdued before them.
2 Fifokoañe fito amo ana’ Israeleo ty nisisa mboe tsy nandrambe o lova’eo.
And there remained among the children of Israel seven tribes, which had not yet received their inheritance.
3 Le hoe t’Iehosoa amo ana’ Israeleo, Pak’ ombia t’ie mbe hihànkañe, tsy hizilike hitavañe i tane nitolora’ Iehovà Andrianañaharen-droae’ areoy?
And Joshua said unto the children of Israel, How long are ye slack to go to possess the land, which Yhwh God of your fathers hath given you?
4 Anoloro ondaty telo ia’ o fifokoa’ areoo, hañirahako; hionjoñe mb’eo mb’eo amy taney hanokitse aze ty amo lovao; vaho himpoly amako.
Give out from among you three men for each tribe: and I will send them, and they shall rise, and go through the land, and describe it according to the inheritance of them; and they shall come again to me.
5 Ho zarae’ iereo fito; himoneñe an-tane’e atimo ey t’Iehodà, vaho himoneñe an-tane’ iareo avaratse ey ty anjomba’ Iosefe.
And they shall divide it into seven parts: Judah shall abide in their coast on the south, and the house of Joseph shall abide in their coasts on the north.
6 Sokire’ areo fito i taney vaho handese’ areo atoy le ho zaraeko an-tsapak’ añatrefa’ Iehovà Andrianañaharen-tika.
Ye shall therefore describe the land into seven parts, and bring the description hither to me, that I may cast lots for you here before Yhwh our God.
7 Toe tsy hanañ’ anjara ama’ areo o nte-Levio, amy te lova’ iareo ty fisoroña’ Iehovà; naho rinambe’ i Gade naho i Reobene vaho ty vakim-pifokoa’ i Menasè i lova natolo’ i Mosè mpitoro’ Iehovà iareo alafe’ Iardene atiñanañey.
But the Levites have no part among you; for the priesthood of Yhwh is their inheritance: and Gad, and Reuben, and half the tribe of Manasseh, have received their inheritance beyond Jordan on the east, which Moses the servant of Yhwh gave them.
8 Aa le niongake indaty rey vaho nionjoñe mb’eo; toe nafanto’ Iehosoa i nimb’eo hamolily i taney rey ami’ty hoe, Akia, tsitsifo fañaveloañe i taney hamoliliañe aze naho mibaliha amako hanjaràko aze an-tsapake ho anahareo añatrefa’ Iehovà e Silò etoa.
And the men arose, and went away: and Joshua charged them that went to describe the land, saying, Go and walk through the land, and describe it, and come again to me, that I may here cast lots for you before Yhwh in Shiloh.
9 Aa le nienga nanitsike i taney i lahilahy rey; sinoki’ iareo am-boke ty ho anjara fito ty amo rova’eo naho nibalike mb’ am’ Iehosoa an-tobe e Silò mb’eo.
And the men went and passed through the land, and described it by cities into seven parts in a book, and came again to Joshua to the camp at Shiloh.
10 Le nanao tsatopiso ho a iareo añatrefa’ Iehovà e Silò ao t’Iehosoa; vaho zinara’ Iehosoa amo ana’ Israeleo i taney ty amo fifokoa’ iareoo.
And Joshua cast lots for them in Shiloh before Yhwh: and there Joshua divided the land unto the children of Israel according to their divisions.
11 Niazo’ i fifokoa’ o ana’ i Beniamineoy ty amo hasavereña’eo an-tsapake ty anjara tane’ iareo añivo’ o ana’ Iehodao naho o ana’ Iosefeo.
And the lot of the tribe of the children of Benjamin came up according to their families: and the coast of their lot came forth between the children of Judah and the children of Joseph.
12 Nifototse am’ Iardeney ty efe’ iareo avaratse, le mioza ami’ty avara’ Ieriko i efetsey, mañambone’ o vohibohitseo mañandrefa vaho mandoak’ am-patrambei’ i Beitavene;
And their border on the north side was from Jordan; and the border went up to the side of Jericho on the north side, and went up through the mountains westward; and the goings out thereof were at the wilderness of Beth–aven.
13 boak’ao, miranga mb’e Loze i efetsey, mioza ami’ty ila’ i Loze atao Betele mañatimo. Mizotso mb’e Atarotadare i efetsey mañarine i vohitse atimo’ i Bete-korone ambaney mb’eo.
And the border went over from thence toward Luz, to the side of Luz, which is Beth–el, southward; and the border descended to Ataroth–adar, near the hill that lieth on the south side of the nether Beth–horon.
14 Miolak’ amy zao i efetsey miary mañatimo ahandrefa’ i vohitse añatrefa’ ty atimo’ i Bete-koroney vaho mandoake e Kiriate-baale, atao Kiriat-iarime, rova’ o ana’ Iehodao. Izay ty efe’e ahandrefa.
And the border was drawn thence, and compassed the corner of the sea southward, from the hill that lieth before Beth–horon southward; and the goings out thereof were at Kirjath–baal, which is Kirjath–jearim, a city of the children of Judah: this was the west quarter.
15 Añ’ila’ i Kiriat-iarime ey ty efe’e atimo, mañandrefa amy zao i efetsey mandoak’ an-drano manganahana’ i Nefotoà;
And the south quarter was from the end of Kirjath–jearim, and the border went out on the west, and went out to the well of waters of Nephtoah:
16 mizotso mb’añ’olo’ i vohitse aolo’ ty vavatane’ i ana’ i Hinomey mb’eo i efetsey, ie i vavatane’ o nte-Refao, mañavaratse, naho mizotso mb’am-bavatane’ i Hinome mb’ añ’ olo’ ty tazoa’ i nte-Iebosiý mañatimo, vaho mizotso mb’e En-Rogele mb’eo;
And the border came down to the end of the mountain that lieth before the valley of the son of Hinnom, and which is in the valley of the giants on the north, and descended to the valley of Hinnom, to the side of Jebusi on the south, and descended to En–rogel,
17 le sinokitse mañavaratse le nimb’ En-semese, naho nitohy mb’e Geliote tandrife ty fitroara’ i Adomime vaho mizotso mb’amy vato’ i Bohane, ana’ i Reobeney mb’eo,
And was drawn from the north, and went forth to En–shemesh, and went forth toward Geliloth, which is over against the going up of Adummim, and descended to the stone of Bohan the son of Reuben,
18 le mb’añ’ila avara’ i Bete-Arabày naho mizotso mb’añ’Arabà mb’eo;
And passed along toward the side over against Arabah northward, and went down unto Arabah:
19 naho mb’ añ’ila’ i Bete-koglà mañavaratse mb’eo i efetsey vaho mandoak’ am-pitolihañe avara’ i riake Siray, am-binañe’ Iardene atimoy; izay ty efe’e atimo.
And the border passed along to the side of Beth–hoglah northward: and the outgoings of the border were at the north bay of the salt sea at the south end of Jordan: this was the south coast.
20 Iardeney ka ty efe’e atiñanañe, izay ty lova’ o ana’ i Beniamineo, ty amo efe’e miarikatok’ azeo, ty amo hasavereña’eo.
And Jordan was the border of it on the east side. This was the inheritance of the children of Benjamin, by the coasts thereof round about, according to their families.
21 O rova’ i fifokoa’ o ana’ i Beniamineo ty amo hasavereña’eo: Ieriko, i Bete-koglà naho ty vavatane Kezize,
Now the cities of the tribe of the children of Benjamin according to their families were Jericho, and Beth–hoglah, and the valley of Keziz,
22 i Bete-Arabà naho i Zemaraime naho i Betele
And Beth–arabah, and Zemaraim, and Beth–el,
23 naho i Avime naho i Parà naho i Oprà
And Avim, and Parah, and Ophrah,
24 naho i Kefar-kaamonay naho i Ofný vaho i Gabà; rova folo-ro’ amby rekets’ o tanà’eo.
And Chephar–haammonai, and Ophni, and Gaba; twelve cities with their villages:
25 I Gibone naho Ramà naho i Birote
Gibeon, and Ramah, and Beeroth,
26 naho i Mitspè naho i Kefirà naho i Motsà
And Mizpeh, and Chephirah, and Mozah,
27 naho i Rekeme naho Irpile naho i Taralà
And Rekem, and Irpeel, and Taralah,
28 naho i Tselà naho i Elefe naho Iebosý, toe Ierosalaime, i Gibeate naho i Kiriate: rova folo-efats’amby rekets’ o tanà’eo. Ie o rovan’ ana’ i Beniamineo ty amo hasavereña’eo.
And Zelah, Eleph, and Jebusi, which is Jerusalem, Gibeath, and Kirjath; fourteen cities with their villages. This is the inheritance of the children of Benjamin according to their families.
