Hohua 13
1 A ka koroheketia a Hohua, kua maha ona ra; na ka mea a Ihowa ki a ia, Kua koroheketia koe, kua maha ou ra, a he nui atu te whenua e toe ana, kahore ano i tangohia.
When Joshua was very old, Yahweh said to him, “Joshua, you are now an old man, but there is still a lot of land [for your army] to capture.
2 Ko te whenua tenei e toe ana: ko nga wahi o nga Pirihitini, ko nga Kehuri katoa;
Here is a list of the land that remains: The Geshur region and all the area where the Philistia people-group live;
3 O Hihoro mai ano, i te ritenga atu o Ihipa a tae noa ki nga rohe o Ekerona whaka te raki, e kiia nei no nga Kanaani; e rima nga wahi ariki o nga Pirihitini; ko nga Kahati, ko nga Aharori, ko nga Ahakeroni, ko nga Kiti, ko nga Ekeroni; me nga Awim i,
the area where the Canaan people-group live, from the Shihor River [in the south] at the [eastern] border of Egypt, to Ekron [city] in the north; the rulers of the five [cities] of Gaza, Ashdod, Ashkelon, Gath, and Ekron; the area where the Avva people-group live,
4 Ki te tonga; ko te whenua katoa o nga Kanaani, me Meara i te taha o nga Hironi tae noa ki Apeke, ki nga rohe o nga Amori:
which is south of the area where the Canaan people-group live;
5 Me te whenua o nga Kipiri, me Repanona katoa whaka te rawhiti atu o Paarakara i raro iho o Maunga Heremona tae noa ki te haerenga atu ki Hamata:
the area where the Gebal people-group live; and all the Lebanon area east of Baal-Gad [city] at the bottom of Hermon Mountain, as far as Lebo-Hamath.
6 Ko nga tangata katoa o te whenua pukepuke, o Repanona tae noa ki Mihirepoto Maimi, me nga Hironi katoa; ka peia ratou e ahau i te aroaro o nga tama a Iharaira: mau ia e wehe a reira hei kainga tupu mo Iharaira, me pera me taku i whakahau ai ki a koe.
All the people of the Sidon people-group live in the hilly area from Lebanon to Misrephoth-Maim, but I will force them to leave that area before you Israelis arrive there. Be sure to give that area to the Israeli people when you divide the land among them, like I told you to do.
7 Na reira wehewehea tenei whenua hei kainga tupu mo nga iwi e iwa, ratou ko tetahi taanga o te iwi o Manahi.
Divide all that land among the nine Israeli tribes and half of the tribe of Manasseh, [the tribes that do not have land on the east side of the Jordan River].”
8 I whiwhi tahi ratou ko nga Reupeni, ko nga Kari ki to ratou wahi, i hoatu ra ki a ratou e Mohi ki tawahi o Horano whaka te rawhiti, ara ko ta Mohi, ko ta te pononga a Ihowa i hoatu ai ki a ratou;
Half of the tribe of Manasseh and the tribes of Reuben and Gad had already been told what land they would receive, because Moses, the man who served Yahweh [well], had already assigned to them the land on the east side of the Jordan [River].
9 O Aroere atu i te taha o te awaawa o Aranona, me te pa i waenganui o te awaawa, me te mania katoa o Merepa tae noa ki Ripono;
Their land extended from Aroer [town] at the Arnon River gorge to the town in the middle of the gorge. It included the whole plain from Medeba [town south] to Dibon [town].
10 Me nga pa katoa o Hihona kingi o nga Amori, i kingi ra ki Hehepona, tae noa ki te rohe ki nga tama a Amona;
All the towns ruled by King Sihon were in that area. The land extended to where the Ammon people-group lived.
11 Me Kireara, me te rohe ki nga Kehuri, ki nga Maakati, me Maunga Heremona katoa, me Pahana katoa, tae noa ki Hareka;
The Gilead area was also there, and the regions where the people of the Geshur and Maacah people-groups lived, and all of Hermon Mountain and all the Bashan region [south] to Salecah.
12 Te kingitanga katoa o Oka i Pahana; i kingi hoki ia ki Ahataroto, ki Eterei, he toenga ia no nga oranga o nga Repaima; i patua hoki enei e Mohi, a peia atu ana.
All the land ruled by Og, the king who ruled the Bashan [region], was in that land. Og was one of the last descendants of Repha; previously he had ruled in Ashtaroth and Edrei [cities], but [the armies of] Moses had defeated their armies and had taken their land from them.
13 Ko nga Kehuri ia me nga Maakati kihai i peia e nga tama a Iharaira: engari i noho nga Kehuri ratou ko nga Maakati i waenganui o Iharaira a taea noatia tenei ra.
But the Israelis did not force the people of the Geshur and Maacah [people-groups] to leave their land, so they still live among the Israeli people.
14 Ko te iwi anake o Riwai, kihai i hoatu e ia he kainga tupu; ko nga whakahere ahi a Ihowa, a te Atua o Iharaira, te wahi tupu mo ratou, ko tana hoki i korero ai ki a ia.
The tribe of Levi was the only tribe that did not get any land. Instead, just like Yahweh promised, they continued to receive [food from] the sacrifices that were given to Yahweh, the God whom the Israelis [worship], the sacrifices that were burned [on the sacred altar].
15 A rite tonu ki o ratou hapu ta Mohi i hoatu ai ki te iwi o nga tama a Reupena.
Moses had allotted land to each clan in the tribe of Reuben.
16 A ko te rohe ki a ratou kei Aroere, kei te taha o te awaawa o Aranona, kei te pa hoki i waenganui o te awaawa me te mania katoa i Merepa;
Their land extended from Aroer [town] near the Arnon River gorge to Medeba [town]. That included all of the plain [that is near Medeba] and the town in the middle of the gorge.
17 Ko Hehepona me o reira pa katoa i te mania; ko Ripono, me Pamotopaara, me Petepaara Meono,
It also included Heshbon [city] and all the nearby towns on the plain—Dibon, Bamioth-Baal, Beth-Baal-Meon,
18 Ko Iahata hoki, me Keremoto, me Mepaata,
Jahaz, Kedemoth, Mephaath,
19 Me Kiriataima, me Hipima, me Terete Hahara i te maunga o taua raorao,
Kiriathaim, Sibmah, Zereth-Shahar on the hill overlooking the valley,
20 Me Petepeoro, me Aharoto Pihika, me Peteiehimoto,
Beth-Peor, the hills in the Pisgah area, and Beth-Jeshimoth.
21 Me nga pa katoa o te mania, me te kingitanga katoa o Hihona, o te kingi o nga Amori, i kingi nei ki Hehepona, i patua ngatahitia nei e Mohi me nga ariki o Miriana, me Ewi, ratou ko Rekeme, ko Turu, ko Huru, ko Repa; na Hihona ena ariki, a i noho ki taua whenua.
That land included all the towns on the plain and all the area that King Sihon had previously ruled. But [the army of] Moses had defeated him and the rulers of the Midian people-group: Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur, and Reba. The armies of all those rulers fought battles along with the army of Sihon, and they lived in that country.
22 I patua ano hoki e nga tama a Iharaira ki te hoari a Paraama tama a Peoro, te tohunga maori, i roto i era atu o to ratou parekura.
The Israeli army killed many people during those battles, including Balaam, [the prophet] from Beor, who tried to use magic to predict/tell what would happen in the future.
23 A ko te rohe ki nga tama a Reupena ko Horano, me tona rohe ano. Ko te wahi tuturu tenei i nga tama a Reupena, i o ratou hapu, nga pa me nga kainga o aua pa.
The [western] boundary of the land that was allotted to the clans of the tribe of Reuben was the Jordan [River].
24 A i hoatu ano e Mohi he wahi ki te iwi o Kara, ki nga tama a Kara, he mea whakarite ki o ratou hapu.
Moses also allotted some land to each clan in the tribe of Gad.
25 A ko te rohe ki a ratou ko Iatere, me nga pa katoa o Kireara, me te hawhe o te whenua o nga tama a Amona, a tae noa ki Aroere ki te ritenga atu o Rapa:
Their land included the Jazer [area] and all the towns of the Gilead [area]; half of the land where the Ammon people-group lived, as far as Aroer [town which is] near Rabbah [town];
26 I Hehepona hoki a tae noa ki Ramata Mihipe, ki Petonimi; i Mahanaima a tae noa ki te rohe o Repiri:
the area from Heshbon [city] to Ramath-Mizpah and Betonim [towns; the area] from Mahanaim [town] to the Debir region;
27 A i te raorao, ko Petearama, ko Petenimira, ko Hukota, ko Tawhono, a ko te toenga atu o te kingitanga o Hihona, o te kingi o Hehepona, ko Horano me tona rohe tae noa ki te pito o te moana o Kinereta, i tawahi o Horano, whaka te rawhiti.
Beth-Haram, Beth-Nimrah, Succoth, and Zaphon [cities] in the valley; and the other area that King Sihon had ruled on the east side of the Jordan River. That area extended [north] to the southern end of Galilee Lake.
28 Ko te wahi tupu tenei i nga tama a Kara, i o ratou hapu, ko nga pa me nga kainga o aua pa.
All this land, including the towns and villages, was allotted to the tribe of Gad.
29 A i hoatu e Mohi he wahi tuturu ki tetahi taanga o te iwi o Manahi: a ka riro i tetahi taanga o te iwi o nga tama a Manahi, he mea whakarite ki o ratou hapu.
Moses also had allotted some of the land [on the east side of the Jordan River] to half of the tribe of Manasseh.
30 A no Mahanaima atu te rohe ki a ratou, ko Pahana katoa, me te kingitanga katoa o Oka, o te kingi o Pahana, me nga pa katoa o Haira, era i Pahana ra, e ono tekau nga pa:
Their land extended [north] from Mahanaim [city]. It included all the Bashan region, all the land that King Og had ruled, and all the towns in the Jair area in Bashan. Altogether that area included 60 towns.
31 Ko tetahi hawhe o Kireara, me Ahataroto, me Eterei, ko nga pa o te kingitanga o Oka i Pahana, i riro era i nga tama a Makiri, a te tama a Manahi, ara i tetahi taanga o nga tama a Makiri, he mea whakarite ki o ratou hapu.
Their area also included half of the Gilead region, and the cities of Ashtaroth and Edrei where King Og had ruled. All that area was allotted to the clans descended from Manasseh’s son Makir.
32 Ko enei nga wahi i hoatu ai e Mohi hei kainga tupu i nga mania o Moapa i tawahi o Horano whaka te rawhiti, i te wahi e anga ana ki Heriko.
Moses had allotted to those tribes the land that was on the plain of the Moab [region], on the east side of the Jordan [River], across from Jericho.
33 Otiia kihai i hoatu e Mohi he wahi tupu ki te iwi o Riwai: ko Ihowa, ko te Atua o Iharaira, ko ia hei wahi tupu mo ratou; ko tana hoki tena i korero ai.
But Moses did not allot any land to the tribe of Levi because Yahweh, the God whom we Israelis worship, promised that he himself would always provide for them.
