1 UJoshuwa wayesemdala eleminyaka eminengi. INkosi yasisithi kuye: Usumdala, uleminyaka eminengi, kusasele ilizwe elikhulu kakhulu ukudla ilifa lalo.
Bere a Yosua bɔɔ akwakoraa no, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Worebɔ akwakoraa nso nsase pii wɔ hɔ a ɛsɛ sɛ woko di so.
2 Yileli ilizwe eliseleyo: Yonke imingcele yamaFilisti, leGeshuri yonke,
“Ɛsɛ sɛ nnipa no tena Filistifo ne Gesur,
3 kusukela eShihori eliphambi kweGibhithe, kusiya emngceleni weEkhironi enyakatho, elibalelwa kumaKhanani; ababusi abahlanu bamaFilisti, abeGaza, labeAshidodi, abeAshikeloni, abeGathi, labeEkhironi, labeAvi,
“nsase a na ɛyɛ Kanaanfo de no so. Saa asase yi fi asu Sihor a ɛda Misraim hye so a ɛsen fa atifi fam kosi Ekron hye so,
4 kusukela eningizimu, ilizwe lonke lamaKhanani, leMeyara elingelamaSidoni, kuze kufike eAfeki, kuze kube semngceleni wamaAmori,

5 lelizwe lamaGebali, leLebhanoni lonke, kusiya empumalanga, kusukela eBhali-Gadi ngaphansi kwentaba yeHermoni, kusiya ekungeneni kweHamathi.
ne Gebalfo asase ne Lebanon nyinaa wɔ apuei fam, de fi Baal-Gad a ɛda Hermon bepɔw ase, de kosi Hamat fam.
6 Bonke abakhileyo ezintabeni, kusukela eLebhanoni kusiya eMisirefothi-Mayimi, wonke amaSidoni, mina ngizabaxotsha elifeni phambi kwabantwana bakoIsrayeli. Kuphela ulabele uIsrayeli ngenkatho libe yilifa, njengoba ngikulayile.
“Mmepɔw asase a efi Lebanon kosi Misrefot-Maim nyinaa a Sidonfo nsase nyinaa ka ho. Metu saa nnipa no nyinaa afi asase no so na mede ama Israelfo. Enti hwɛ na fa saa asase no ma Israelfo sɛ agyapade sononko sɛnea mahyɛ wo no.
7 Ngakho-ke yehlukanisa ilizwe leli libe yilifa ezizweni eziyisificamunwemunye lengxenye yesizwe sakoManase.
Fa saa asase yi nyinaa sɛ Israelfo agyapade bere a worekyekyɛ mu ama mmusuakuw akron no ne Manase abusua fa no.”
8 Kanye labo abakoRubeni labakoGadi bemukela ilifa labo, uMozisi owabanika lona, ngaphetsheya kweJordani ngempumalanga, njengalokho uMozisi inceku yeNkosi wabanika:
Manase abusua fa, Rubenfo ne Gadfo de, na wɔanya wɔn agyapade wɔ Yordan apuei fam, efisɛ na Mose a ɔyɛ Awurade somfo no de saa asase no ama wɔn dedaw.
9 Kusukela eAroweri esekhunjini lwesifula seArinoni, lomuzi ophakathi kwesifula, lamagceke wonke eMedeba kuze kube seDiboni,
Wɔn asase no fi Aroer a ɛda Arnon Subon no ano (ne kurow a ɛda nsuka no mfimfini) de kɔ sare a ɛtoa Medeba so kosi Dibon.
10 lemizi yonke kaSihoni inkosi yamaAmori owabusa eHeshiboni, kuze kube semngceleni wabantwana bakoAmoni,
Amorihene Sihon a odii ade wɔ Hesbon kosi Amonfo hye so nkurow nyinaa nso ka ho.
11 leGileyadi lomngcele wamaGeshuri lamaMahakathi lentaba yonke yeHermoni leBashani lonke kuze kube seSaleka,
Gilead, asase a ɛwɔ Gesur ne Maaka ahemman mu, Bepɔw Hermon nyinaa, Basan nyinaa de kosi Saleka ka ho,
12 umbuso wonke kaOgi eBashani owabusa eAshitarothi leEdreyi. Nguye owasala kunsali yeziqhwaga. UMozisi wayebatshaye-ke wabaxotsha elifeni labo.
na Basanhene Og a odii hene wɔ Astarot ne Edrei nsase nyinaa nso ka ho. Ɔhene Og yɛ Rafatni a otwa to, efisɛ na Mose ne wɔn ako apam wɔn.
13 Kodwa abantwana bakoIsrayeli kabawaxotshanga elifeni amaGeshuri lamaMahakathi; kodwa amaGeshuri lamaMahakathi ahlala phakathi kukaIsrayeli kuze kube lamuhla.
Nanso Israelfo no antu Gesurfo ne Maakafo enti wɔtenaa Israelfo no mu de besi nnɛ.
14 Kuphela esizweni sakoLevi kanikanga ilifa; iminikelo yeNkosi uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli eyenziwe ngomlilo iyilifa laso, njengokutsho kwayo kuso.
Na Lewi abusuakuw no de, wamma wɔn agyapade biara. Wɔn agyapade fi afɔrebɔde a wɔhyew wɔ afɔremuka so ma Awurade, Israel Nyankopɔn no.
15 UMozisi wasenika isizwe sabantwana bakoRubeni ngokwensendo zabo.
Mose de saa beae yi maa mmusua a ɛwɔ Ruben abusuakuw mu.
16 Lomngcele waso wasukela eAroweri esekhunjini lwesifula seArinoni, lomuzi ophakathi kwesifula, lamagceke wonke eMedeba,
Wɔn asase no fi Aroer a ɛda Arnon Subon no ano (ne kurow a ɛda nsuka no mfimfini) de kɔ sare a ɛtoa Medeba so.

Nkurow a ɛwɔ tataw so nyinaa ne Sihon ahemman nyinaa nso ka Ruben asase no ho. Sihon yɛ Amorihene a na odi ade wɔ Hesbon, nea Mose kum no ne Midian ahemfo a wɔne Ewi, Rekem, Sur, Hur, Reba ne ahenemma a wɔwɔ mpɔtam hɔ a wɔne Sihon yɛ baako.
22 LoBalami indodana kaPeyori, ovumisayo, abantwana bakoIsrayeli bambulala ngenkemba phakathi kwababuleweyo babo.

23 Lomngcele wabantwana bakoRubeni wawuyiJordani lomngcele wayo. Lokhu kwakuyilifa labantwana bakoRubeni ngokwensendo zabo, imizi lemizana yayo.
Yordan Asubɔnten no yɛ Ruben asase no hye wɔ atɔe fam. Wɔde nkurow ne nkuraa a ɛwɔ saa beae yi maa mmusua a ɛwɔ Ruben abusuakuw no mu sɛ wɔn agyapade.
24 UMozisi wasenika isizwe sakoGadi, kubantwana bakoGadi ngokwensendo zabo.

Wɔn asase no yɛ Yaser, Gilead nkurow nyinaa, ne Amon asase no fa, kosi Aroer kurow a ɛwɔ Raba atɔe fam pɛɛ.
26 njalo kusukela eHeshiboni kusiya eRamathi-Mizipa leBetonimi, njalo kusukela eMahanayimi kuze kube semngceleni weDebhiri;
Na efi Hesbon de kosi Ramat-Mispa ne Betonim de fi Mahanaim de kosi Debir.
27 lesigodini, iBeti-Harama leBeti-Nimira leSukothi leZafoni, insali yombuso kaSihoni inkosi yeHeshiboni, iJordani lomngcele, kuze kube sekupheleni kolwandle lweKinerethi ngaphetsheya kweJordani empumalanga.

28 Leli yilifa labantwana bakoGadi ngokwensendo zabo, imizi lemizana yabo.
Nkurow ne nkuraa a ɛwɔ saa beae yi na wɔde maa mmusua a ɛwɔ Gad abusuakuw mu sɛ wɔn agyapade.
29 UMozisi wasenika ingxenye yesizwe sakoManase ilifa; njalo yayingeyengxenye yesizwe sabantwana bakoManase ngokwensendo zabo.
Mose de saa beae yi maa mmusua a ɛwɔ
30 Lomngcele wabo wasukela eMahanayimi, iBashani lonke, umbuso wonke kaOgi inkosi yeBashani, layo yonke imizana yeJayiri eseBashani, imizi engamatshumi ayisithupha.
Na wɔn asase no fi Mahanaim, Basan nyinaa, ɔhene Og kan tete ahemman nyinaa ne nkurow aduosia a ɛwɔ Yair a ɛwɔ Basan no.
31 Lengxenye yeGileyadi, leAshitarothi, leEdreyi, imizi yombuso kaOgi eBashani, yayingeyabantwana bakoMakiri indodana kaManase, ngitsho eyengxenye yabantwana bakoMakiri ngokwensendo zabo.

32 La yiwo uMozisi awanika aba yilifa emagcekeni akoMowabi ngaphetsheya kweJordani eJeriko empumalanga.
Eyinom yɛ nkyekyɛmu a Mose yɛe bere a na ɔwɔ Moab tataw so, wɔ Asubɔnten Yordan akyi, Yeriko apuei fam.
33 Kodwa esizweni sakoLevi uMozisi kanikanga ilifa; iNkosi, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli, iyilifa labo, njengokutsho kwayo kubo.
