1 UJoshuwa wayesemdala eleminyaka eminengi. INkosi yasisithi kuye: Usumdala, uleminyaka eminengi, kusasele ilizwe elikhulu kakhulu ukudla ilifa lalo.
Ɛberɛ a Yosua bɔɔ akɔkoraa no, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Worebɔ akɔkoraa 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 Filistifoɔ 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 Kanaanfoɔ dea no so. Saa asase yi firi asuo Sihor a ɛda Misraim ɛhyeɛ so a ɛtene fa atifi fam kɔsi Ekron ɛhyeɛ 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 Gebalfoɔ asase ne Lebanon nyinaa wɔ apueeɛ fam, de firi Baal-Gad a ɛda Hermon bepɔ ase, de kɔsi 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.
“Mmepɔ asase a ɛfiri Lebanon kɔsi Misrefot-Maim nyinaa a Sidonfoɔ nsase nyinaa ka ho. Mɛtu saa nnipa no nyinaa afiri asase no so na mede ama Israelfoɔ. Enti hwɛ na fa saa asase no ma Israelfoɔ sɛ agyapadeɛ sononko sɛdeɛ mahyɛ wo no.
7 Ngakho-ke yehlukanisa ilizwe leli libe yilifa ezizweni eziyisificamunwemunye lengxenye yesizwe sakoManase.
Fa saa asase yi nyinaa sɛ Israelfoɔ agyapadeɛ wɔ ɛberɛ a worekyekyɛ mu ama mmusuakuo nkron 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 no mu fa ne Rubenfoɔ ne Gadfoɔ deɛ, na wɔanya wɔn agyapadeɛ wɔ Yordan apueeɛ fam, ɛfiri sɛ na Mose a ɔyɛ Awurade ɔsomfoɔ no de saa asase no ama wɔn dada.
9 Kusukela eAroweri esekhunjini lwesifula seArinoni, lomuzi ophakathi kwesifula, lamagceke wonke eMedeba kuze kube seDiboni,
Wɔn asase no firi Aroer a ɛda Arnon Subɔnhwa no ano (ne kuro a ɛda nsuka no mfimfini) de kɔ ɛserɛ a ɛtoa Medeba so kɔsi Dibon.
10 lemizi yonke kaSihoni inkosi yamaAmori owabusa eHeshiboni, kuze kube semngceleni wabantwana bakoAmoni,
Amorifoɔhene Sihon a ɔdii adeɛ wɔ Hesbon kɔsi Amonfoɔ ɛhyeɛ so nkuro 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, Bepɔ Hermon nyinaa, Basan nyinaa de kɔsi Saleka ka ho,
12 umbuso wonke kaOgi eBashani owabusa eAshitarothi leEdreyi. Nguye owasala kunsali yeziqhwaga. UMozisi wayebatshaye-ke wabaxotsha elifeni labo.
ɛnna Basanhene Og a ɔdii ɔhene wɔ Astarot ne Edrei nsase nyinaa nso ka ho. Ɔhene Og yɛ Rafatni a ɔtwa toɔ, ɛfiri sɛ na Mose ne wɔn ako apamo wɔn.
13 Kodwa abantwana bakoIsrayeli kabawaxotshanga elifeni amaGeshuri lamaMahakathi; kodwa amaGeshuri lamaMahakathi ahlala phakathi kukaIsrayeli kuze kube lamuhla.
Nanso, Israelfoɔ no antu Gesurfoɔ ne Maakafoɔ enti wɔtenaa Israelfoɔ no mu de bɛsi ɛnnɛ.
14 Kuphela esizweni sakoLevi kanikanga ilifa; iminikelo yeNkosi uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli eyenziwe ngomlilo iyilifa laso, njengokutsho kwayo kuso.
Na Lewi abusuakuo no deɛ, wamma wɔn agyapadeɛ biara. Wɔn agyapadeɛ firi afɔrebɔdeɛ a wɔhye wɔ afɔrebukyia so ma Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn no.
15 UMozisi wasenika isizwe sabantwana bakoRubeni ngokwensendo zabo.
Mose de saa beaeɛ yi maa mmusua a ɛwɔ Ruben abusuakuo mu.
16 Lomngcele waso wasukela eAroweri esekhunjini lwesifula seArinoni, lomuzi ophakathi kwesifula, lamagceke wonke eMedeba,
Wɔn asase no firi Aroer a ɛda Arnon Subɔnhwa no ano (ne kuro a ɛda nsuka no mfimfini) de kɔ ɛserɛ a ɛtoa Medeba so.
17 iHeshiboni, lemizi yayo yonke esemagcekeni, iDiboni leBamothi-Bhali leBeti-Bhali-Meyoni,

21 lemizi yonke yamagceke, lombuso wonke kaSihoni inkosi yamaAmori, owayebusa eHeshiboni, uMozisi amtshaya leziphathamandla zeMidiyani, oEvi loRekemi loZuri loHuri loReba, amakhosana kaSihoni, abakhileyo belizwe.
Nkuro a ɛwɔ tata so nyinaa ne Sihon ahemman nyinaa nso ka Ruben asase no ho. Sihon yɛ Amorifoɔhene a na ɔdi adeɛ wɔ Hesbon, deɛ Mose kumm no ne Midian ahemfo a wɔn ne Ewi, Rekem, Sur, Hur, Reba ne ahenemma a wɔwɔ mpɔtam hɔ a wɔne Sihon yɛ baako.

23 Lomngcele wabantwana bakoRubeni wawuyiJordani lomngcele wayo. Lokhu kwakuyilifa labantwana bakoRubeni ngokwensendo zabo, imizi lemizana yayo.
Yordan Asubɔnten no yɛ Ruben asase no ɛhyeɛ wɔ atɔeɛ fam. Wɔde nkuro ne nkuraase a ɛwɔ saa beaeɛ yi maa mmusua a ɛwɔ Ruben abusuakuo no mu sɛ wɔn agyapadeɛ.
24 UMozisi wasenika isizwe sakoGadi, kubantwana bakoGadi ngokwensendo zabo.
Mose de saa asase yi maa mmusua a ɛwɔ Gad abusuakuo mu:
25 Lomngcele wabo wawuyiJazeri layo yonke imizi yeGileyadi lengxenye yelizwe labantwana bakoAmoni, kusiya eAroweri, ephambi kweRaba,
Wɔn asase no yɛ Yaser, Gilead nkuro nyinaa, ne Amon asase no fa, kɔsi Aroer kuro a ɛwɔ Raba atɔeɛ fam pɛɛ.
26 njalo kusukela eHeshiboni kusiya eRamathi-Mizipa leBetonimi, njalo kusukela eMahanayimi kuze kube semngceleni weDebhiri;
Na ɛfiri Hesbon de kɔsi Ramat-Mispe ne Betonim de firi Mahanaim de kɔsi Debir.
27 lesigodini, iBeti-Harama leBeti-Nimira leSukothi leZafoni, insali yombuso kaSihoni inkosi yeHeshiboni, iJordani lomngcele, kuze kube sekupheleni kolwandle lweKinerethi ngaphetsheya kweJordani empumalanga.
Bɔnhwa no mu na na Bet-Haram ne Bet-Nimra ne Sukot ne Safon ne Hesbonhene Sihon ahemman no nkaeɛ wɔ; Asubɔnten Yordan na na ɛyɛ atɔeɛ fam hɔ ɛhyeɛ na ɛtoa so de kɔsi Galilea ɛpo no mu.
28 Leli yilifa labantwana bakoGadi ngokwensendo zabo, imizi lemizana yabo.
Nkuro ne nkuraaseɛ a ɛwɔ saa beaeɛ yi na wɔde maa mmusua a ɛwɔ Gad abusuakuo mu sɛ wɔn agyapadeɛ.
29 UMozisi wasenika ingxenye yesizwe sakoManase ilifa; njalo yayingeyengxenye yesizwe sabantwana bakoManase ngokwensendo zabo.
Mose de saa beaeɛ yi maa mmusua a ɛwɔ Manase abusuakuo fa no mu.
30 Lomngcele wabo wasukela eMahanayimi, iBashani lonke, umbuso wonke kaOgi inkosi yeBashani, layo yonke imizana yeJayiri eseBashani, imizi engamatshumi ayisithupha.
Na wɔn asase no firi Mahanaim, Basan nyinaa, ɔhene Og kane tete ahemman nyinaa ne nkuro 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.
Gilead fa ne ɔhene Og ahenkuro, Astarot ne Edrei ka ho. Wɔde yeinom nyinaa maa Makir a na ɔyɛ Manase babarima no asefoɔ.
32 La yiwo uMozisi awanika aba yilifa emagcekeni akoMowabi ngaphetsheya kweJordani eJeriko empumalanga.
Yeinom yɛ nkyekyɛmu a Mose yɛɛ ɛberɛ a na ɔwɔ Moab tata so, wɔ Asubɔnten Yordan akyi, Yeriko apueeɛ fam.
33 Kodwa esizweni sakoLevi uMozisi kanikanga ilifa; iNkosi, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli, iyilifa labo, njengokutsho kwayo kubo.
Nanso, Mose amma Lewi abusuakuo no asase biara, ɛfiri sɛ, na Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn ahyɛ bɔ sɛ ɔno na ɔbɛyɛ wɔn agyapadeɛ.
