Nomery 34

1 Hoe ty nitsara’ Iehovà amy Mosè:

And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:

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),

“Instruct the sons of Israel, and you shall say to them: When you will have entered into the land of Canaan, and it has fallen into your possession by lot, it shall be bound by these limits:

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;

The southern part shall begin from the wilderness of Sin, which is next to Edom, and it shall have the Sea of Salt as a limit to the east.

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;

It shall circle on the south side along the ascent of the Scorpion, by this way crossing into Senna, and passing through, from the south, as far as Kadesh-barnea, from which its confines shall go out to the town called Adar, and extend even to Azmon.

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

And its limits shall go around from Azmon to the Torrent of Egypt, and shall end at the shore of the Great Sea.

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

Then the western region shall begin from the Great Sea, and the same shall be its end.

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

Furthermore, toward the northern region, its limits shall begin from the Great Sea, passing through even to the highest mountain.

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

From there, it limits shall advance into Hamath, as far as the limits of Zedad.

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

And its confines shall go all the way to Ziphron, and to the village of Enan. These shall be the limits on the northern side.

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

From there, its limits shall be measured, facing the east side, from the village of Enan as far as 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;

And from Shepham, the boundaries shall descend into Riblah, opposite the fountain of Daphnis. From there, the boundaries shall pass through, opposite the east, to 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.

and shall extend as far as the Jordan, and, at the furthest extent, shall be enclosed by the Sea of Salt. You shall have this land, with its borders all around.”

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.

And Moses instructed the sons of Israel, saying: “This shall be the land which you shall possess by lot, and which the Lord has ordered to be given to the nine tribes, and to the half tribe.

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 tribe of the sons of Ruben, by their families, and the tribe of the sons of Gad, according to the number of their kinships, and also one half of the tribe of Manasseh,

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.

that is, two and a half tribes, have received their portion across the Jordan, opposite Jericho, toward the eastern side.”

16 Le hoe ty nitsarae’ Iehovà amy Mosè:

And 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 shall divide the land for you: Eleazar the priest, and Joshua the son of Nun,

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

and one leader from each tribe,

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

whose names are these: from the tribe of Judah, Caleb the son of Jephunneh;

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

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

of the sons of Joseph, from the tribe of Manasseh, Hanniel the son of Ephod;

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

from the tribe of Ephraim, Kemuel the son of Shiphtan;

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

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

These are the ones that the Lord has ordered to divide the land of Canaan to the sons of Israel.
