Amanani 34
1 UThixo wathi kuMosi,
And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,
2 “Laya abako-Israyeli uthi kubo: ‘Nxa lingena eKhenani, ilizwe elizaliphiwa ukuba libe yisabelo senu lizakuba lale imingcele:
'Command the sons of Israel, and thou hast said unto them, When ye are coming in unto the land of Canaan — this [is] the land which falleth to you by inheritance, the land of Canaan, by its borders —
3 Icele leningizimu yenu lizahlanganisa isigaba esithile seNkangala yaseZini kulandela umngcele we-Edomi. Empumalanga, umngcele wenu weningizimu uzasukela ekucineni koLwandle lweTswayi,
then hath the south quarter been to you from the wilderness of Zin, by the sides of Edom, yea, the south border hath been to you from the extremity of the Salt Sea, eastward;
4 udabula eningizimu yoMkhandlu weNkume, kusiya ngaseZini njalo kuye eningizimu yeKhadeshi Bhaneya. Usuka lapho uzaqonda eHazari Adari njalo wedlulele e-Azimoni,
and the border hath turned round to you from the south to the ascent of Akrabbim, and hath passed on to Zin, and its outgoings have been from the south to Kadesh-Barnea, and it hath gone out at Hazar-Addar, and hath passed on to Azmon;
5 lapho ozajika khona, kuhlangane lesiHotsha saseGibhithe njalo uyephelela oLwandle lwaseMedithereniyeni.
and the border hath turned round from Azmon to the brook of Egypt, and its outgoings have been at the sea.
6 Umngcele wenu wentshonalanga uzakuba ligumbi loLwandle oLukhulu. Lo uzakuba ngumngcele wenu entshonalanga.
'As to the west border, even the great sea hath been to you a border; this is to you the west border.
7 Okomngcele wenu wenyakatho, usekela uLwandle oLukhulu usiya eNtabeni yaseHori
'And this is to you the north border: from the great sea ye mark out for yourselves mount Hor;
8 njalo usuka eNtabeni yaseHori uye eLebho Hamathi. Umngcele uzasuka lapho uqonde eZedadi,
from mount Hor ye mark out to go in to Hamath, and the outgoings of the border have been to Zedad;
9 ubusuqhubeka usiya eZifironi uze uyekuma eHazari-Enani. Lo yiwo umngcele wenu enyakatho.
and the border hath gone out to Ziphron, and its outgoings have been at Hazar-Enan; this is to you the north border.
10 Okomngcele wenu wempumalanga, sukelani eHazari-Enani kusiya eShefamu.
'And ye have marked out for yourselves for the border eastward, from Hazar-Enan to Shepham;
11 Umngcele uzakwehla usuka eShefamu usiya eRibhila engempumalanga kwe-Ayini njalo uqhubeke ulandela umthezuko empumalanga koLwandle lwaseKhinerethi.
and the border hath gone down from Shepham to Riblah, on the east of Ain, and the border hath gone down, and hath smitten against the shoulder of the sea of Chinnereth eastward;
12 Kusuka lapho umngcele uzakwehla ulandela umfula uJodani uze uyecina oLwandle lweTswayi. Leli lizakuba yilizwe lenu, ngemingcele yalo inxa zonke.’”
and the border hath gone down to the Jordan, and its outgoings have been at the Salt Sea; this is for you the land by its borders round about.'
13 UMosi walaya abako-Israyeli wathi: “Yabelanani lelilizwe ngenkatho njengelifa lenu. UThixo usekhuphe isiqondiso sokuthi aliphiwe izizwana eziyisificamunwemunye kanye lesizwana esiyingxenye,
And Moses commandeth the sons of Israel, saying, 'This [is] the land which ye inherit by lot, which Jehovah hath commanded to give to the nine tribes and the half of the tribe;
14 ngenxa yokuthi abezimuli zesizwana sikaRubheni, abesizwana sikaGadi kanye lengxenye yesizwana sikaManase sebethole isabelo sabo.
for the tribe of the sons of Reuben have received, by the house of their fathers; and the tribe of the children of Gad, by the house of their fathers; and the half of the tribe of Manasseh have received their inheritance;
15 Izizwana lezi ezimbili kanye lalesi esiyingxenye sezithole isabelo sazo empumalanga komfula uJodani malungana leJerikho, ngokuya ngempumalanga.”
the two tribes and the half of the tribe have received their inheritance beyond the Jordan, [near] Jericho, eastward, at the [sun] -rising.'
16 UThixo wathi kuMosi,
And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,
17 “La ngamabizo amadoda azalabela ilizwe njengelifa lenu: u-Eliyazari umphristi kanye loJoshuwa indodana kaNuni.
'These [are] the names of the men who give to you the inheritance of the land: Eleazar the priest, and Joshua son of Nun,
18 Beselikhetha umkhokheli oyedwa esizwaneni ngasinye ukuncedisa ukwaba ilizwe:
and one prince — one prince — for a tribe ye do take to give the land by inheritance.
19 La yiwo amabizo abo: uKhalebi indodana kaJefune, owesizwana sakoJuda;
'And these [are] the names of the men: of the tribe of Judah, Caleb son of Jephunneh;
20 uShemuyeli indodana ka-Amihudi, owesizwana sakoSimiyoni;
and of the tribe of the sons of Simeon, Shemuel son of Aminihud;
21 u-Elidadi indodana kaKhisiloni, owesizwana sakoBhenjamini;
of the tribe of Benjamin, Elidad son of Chislon;
22 uBhukhi indodana kaJogili, umkhokheli ovela esizwaneni sakoDani;
and of the tribe of the sons of Dan, the prince Bukki son of Jogli;
23 uHaniyeli indodana ka-Efodi, ongumkhokheli ovela esizwaneni sikaManase indodana kaJosefa;
of the sons of Joseph, of the tribe of the sons of Manasseh, the prince Hanniel son of Ephod;
24 uKhemuweli indodana kaShifuthani, engumkhokheli ovela esizwaneni sako-Efrayimi indodana kaJosefa;
and of the tribe of the sons of Ephraim, the prince Kemuel son of Shiphtan;
25 u-Elizafani indodana kaPhanaki, umkhokheli ovela esizwaneni sikaZebhuluni;
and of the tribe of the sons of Zebulun, the prince Elizaphan son of Parnach;
26 uPhalithiyeli indodana ka-Azani, umkhokheli ovela esizwaneni sika-Isakhari,
and of the tribe of the sons of Issachar, the prince Paltiel son of Azzan;
27 u-Ahihudi indodana kaShelomi, umkhokheli ovela esizwaneni sika-Asheri;
and of the tribe of the sons of Asher, the prince Ahihud son of Shelomi;
28 uPhedaheli indodana ka-Amihudi, umkhokheli ovela esizwaneni sikaNafithali.”
and of the tribe of the sons of Naphtali, the prince Pedahel son of Ammihud.'
29 La yiwo amadoda uThixo alaya ukuthi ahlukanisele abako-Israyeli isabelo sabo selizwe laseKhenani.
These [are] those whom Jehovah hath commanded to give the sons of Israel inheritance in the land of Canaan.
