Nomery 34

1 Hoe ty nitsara’ Iehovà amy Mosè:

Then the LORD said to Moses,

2 Afantoho o ana’Israeleo ami’ty hoe: Ie mivotrak’ an-tane Kanàne ao (amy t’ie ty tane hitsa­toke ho anahareo ho lova: i tane Kanàney, pak’ amo efe-tane’eo),

“Command the Israelites and say to them: When you enter the land of Canaan, it will be allotted to you as an inheritance with these boundaries:

3 le mifototse am-patrambei’ i Tsiney añe ty efe’ areo atimo le hañorike ty efe’ i Edome; aa le hianiñànañe mb’ am-boli’ i Riake Matey mb’eo i efe’ areo atimoy;

Your southern border will extend from the Wilderness of Zin along the border of Edom. On the east, your southern border will run from the end of the Salt Sea,

4 hiolake mb’atimo’ ty fionjona’ i Akrabime ty efe’ areo atimo, le homb’e Tsine mb’eo le hañorike ty atimo’ i Kadèse Barnèa le hionjom-b’an-Katsàradàre mb’eo; le hitohy mb’e Atsmòne mb’eo;

cross south of the Ascent of Akrabbim, continue to Zin, and go south of Kadesh-barnea. Then it will go on to Hazar-addar and proceed to Azmon,

5 hiolake e Atsmòne i efetsey le hiranga mb’añ’ oñe’ i Mitsraime añe vaho higadoñe amy Riakey.

where it will turn from Azmon, join the Brook of Egypt, and end at the Sea.

6 Le i efetse ahandrefañey: ho efe’ areo ahandrefañe i olon-dRiake Ra’elahiy.

Your western border will be the coastline of the Great Sea; this will be your boundary on the west.

7 Le ty efe’ areo avaratse: mifototse amy Riake Ra’elahiy le tandrifeo ty Vohi-Hore ho efe’ areo;

Your northern border will run from the Great Sea directly to Mount Hor,

8 boak’ am-bohi-Hore tandrifeo pak’ e Lebò-Ka­màte; hitohy mb’e Tsedàde i efetsey;

and from Mount Hor to Lebo-hamath, then extend to Zedad,

9 hionjomb’ e Zifròne i efetsey vaho higadoñe e Katsàre-Enàne. Izay ty efe’ areo avaratse.

continue to Ziphron, and end at Hazar-enan. This will be your boundary on the north.

10 Aa le sokiro ka ty efe’ areo atiñanañe, boake Katsàre-Enàne pake Sefàme;

And your eastern border will run straight from Hazar-enan to Shepham,

11 hitohy boake Sefame le pake Riblà atiñana’ i Aine añe i efetsey; le hizotso pak’ añ’ olotse atiñana’ ty Riake Kinerote ey i efetsey;

then go down from Shepham to Riblah on the east side of Ain and continue along the slopes east of the Sea of Chinnereth.

12 horihe’ i efetsey ty olo’ Iardeney am-para’ i Riake Matey. Izay ty ho tane’ areo naho ty fiarikatoha’ i efe-tane’ey.

Then the border will go down along the Jordan and end at the Salt Sea. This will be your land, defined by its borders on all sides.”

13 Aa linili’ i Mosè o ana’ Israeleo ami’ty hoe: Zao ty tane ho lovae’ areo an-tsapake, i nandilia’ Iehovà hatolotse amy fifokoa sive rey naho amy vakim-pifokoay.

So Moses commanded the Israelites, “Apportion this land by lot as an inheritance. The LORD has commanded that it be given to the nine and a half tribes.

14 Fe sindre nandrambe ty lova’ iareo ty fifokoa’ i Reòbene ty aman’ an­jomban-droae’e naho ty fifokoa’ i Gade ty aman’ an­jomban-droae’e vaho nandrambe i lova’ey ka ty vakim-pifokoa’ i Menasè.

For the tribes of the Reubenites and Gadites, along with the half-tribe of Manasseh, have already received their inheritance.

15 Songa nandrambe ty lova’e i fifokoa roe rey naho i vakim-pifokoay mifototse an-dafe’ Iardene e Ieriko eo maniñanañe mb’ am-panjiriha’ i àndroy mb’eo.

These two and a half tribes have received their inheritance across the Jordan from Jericho, toward the sunrise.”

16 Le hoe ty nitsarae’ Iehovà amy Mosè:

Then the LORD said to Moses,

17 Zao o tahina’ ondaty hizara i taney ama’ areo ho fanañañeo: i Elazare mpisoroñe naho Iehosoa ana’ i Nòne.

“These are the names of the men who are to assign the land as an inheritance for you: Eleazar the priest and Joshua son of Nun.

18 Le handrambesa’ areo mpiaolo kiraikiraike o fifokoañe hanjarañe i taneio ho lova.

Appoint one leader from each tribe to distribute the land.

19 Zao ty tahina’ ondatio: boak’ am-pifokoa’ Iehodà: i Kalèbe ana’ Iefonè;

These are their names: Caleb son of Jephunneh from the tribe of Judah;

20 boak’ am-pifokoa’ o nte-Simoneo: i Semoàle ana’ i Amihòde;

Shemuel son of Ammihud from the tribe of Simeon;

21 boak’ am-pifokoa’ i Beniamène: i Elidàde ana’ i Kislòne;

Elidad son of Chislon from the tribe of Benjamin;

22 ty mpiaolo boak’ am-pifokoa’ i Dane: i Boký ana’ Ioglý;

23 boak’ amo ana’ Iosefeo: ty mpiaolo boak’ amy fifokoa’ o nte-Menasèoy: i Kanièle ana’ i Efode;

24 le ty mpiaolo boak’ am-pifokoa’ o nte-Efraimeo: i Kemoele ana’ i Seftàne;

25 ty mpiaolo boak’ am-pifokoa’ o nte-Zeboloneo: i Elitsafàne, ana’ i Parnàke;

26 ty mpiaolo boak’ am-pifokoa’ o nte-Isakhareo: i Paltiele ana’ i Atsane;

Paltiel son of Azzan, a leader from the tribe of Issachar;

27 ty mpiaolo boak’ am-pifokoa’ o nte-Asereo: i Akihòde ana’ i Selomý;

28 ty mpiaolo boak’ am-pifokoa’ o nte-Naftalio, i Pedahele ana’ i Amihode;

and Pedahel son of Ammihud, a leader from the tribe of Naphtali.”

29 ie ondaty nandilia’ Iehovà hizara ty tane’ o ana’ Israeleo an-tane Kanàne ao.

These are the ones whom the LORD commanded to apportion the inheritance to the Israelites in the land of Canaan.
