Amanani 34

1 INkosi yasikhuluma kuMozisi isithi:

And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,

2 Laya abantwana bakoIsrayeli uthi kubo: Lapho lingena elizweni leKhanani, leli lizakuba yilizwe elizawela kini libe yilifa, ilizwe leKhanani, ngokwemingcele yalo.

Command the sons of Israel, and say to them, When ye come into the land of Canaan (this is the land that shall fall to you for an inheritance, even the land of Canaan according to the borders of it),

3 Legumbi lenu leningizimu lizakuba kusukela enkangala yeZini, enhlangothini zeEdoma. Njalo uzakuba ngumngcele wenu weningizimu kusukela ekucineni kolwandle lwetshwayi empumalanga.

then your south quarter shall be from the wilderness of Zin along by the side of Edom. And your south border shall be from the end of the Salt Sea eastward.

4 Umngcele wenu uzajika uvela eningizimu usiya emqansweni weAkirabimi, wedlulele eZini; lokuphuma kwawo kuzavela eningizimu kuye eKadeshi-Bhaneya; uzaphuma uye eHazari-Adari, wedlulele eAzimoni.

And your border shall turn about southward of the ascent of Akrabbim, and pass along to Zin. And the goings out of it shall be southward of Kadesh-barnea. And it shall go forth to Hazar-addar, and pass along to Azmon.

5 Lomngcele uzajika uvela eAzimoni uye esifuleni seGibhithe; lokuphuma kwawo kuzakuba selwandle.

And the border shall turn about from Azmon to the brook of Egypt, and the goings out of it shall be at the sea.

6 Mayelana lomngcele wentshonalanga, ulwandle olukhulu luzakuba ngumngcele wenu; lona luzakuba ngumngcele wenu ngentshonalanga.

And for the western border, ye shall have the great sea and the border of it. This shall be your west border.

7 Lalokhu kuzakuba ngumngcele wenu wenyakatho: Kusukela elwandle olukhulu lizazidwebela intaba yeHori;

And this shall be your north border: From the great sea ye shall mark out for you mount Hor.

8 kusukela entabeni yeHori lizadweba umngcele oya ekungeneni kweHamathi, lokuphuma komngcele kuye eZedadi.

From mount Hor ye shall mark out to the entrance of Hamath. And the goings out of the border shall be at Zedad.

9 Lomngcele uzaphuma uye eZifroni, lokuphuma kwawo kuzakuba eHazari-Enani. Lo uzakuba ngumngcele wenu wenyakatho.

And the border shall go forth to Ziphron, and the goings out of it shall be at Hazar-enan. This shall be your north border.

10 Njalo lizazidwebela umngcele wenu wempumalanga kusukela eHazari-Enani kusiya eShefamu;

And ye shall mark out your east border from Hazar-enan to Shepham.

11 lomngcele uzakwehla uvela eShefamu uye eRibila empumalanga kweAyini, lomngcele wehle ufike eceleni kolwandle lweKinerethi ngempumalanga.

And the border shall go down from Shepham to Riblah, on the east side of Ain. And the border shall go down, and shall reach to the side of the sea of Chinnereth eastward.

12 Umngcele uzakwehlela-ke eJordani, lokuphuma kwawo kuzakuba solwandle lwetshwayi. Leli lizakuba yilizwe lenu ngemingcele yalo inhlangothi zonke.

And the border shall go down to the Jordan, and the goings out of it shall be at the Salt Sea. This shall be your land according to the borders of it round about.

13 UMozisi waselaya abantwana bakoIsrayeli esithi: Leli yilizwe elizakudla ilifa lalo ngenkatho, iNkosi elaye ngalo ukulinika izizwe eziyisificamunwemunye lengxenye yesizwe.

And Moses commanded the sons of Israel, saying, This is the land which ye shall inherit by lot, which Jehovah has commanded to give to the nine tribes, and to the half-tribe.

14 Ngoba isizwe sabantwana bakoRubeni ngezindlu zaboyise, lesizwe sabantwana bakoGadi ngezindlu zaboyise zemukele, lengxenye yesizwe sakoManase yemukele ilifa layo.

For the tribe of the sons of Reuben according to their fathers' houses, and the tribe of the children of Gad according to their fathers' houses, have received, and the half-tribe of Manasseh have received, their inheritance.

15 Izizwe ezimbili lengxenye yesizwe zemukele ilifa lazo nganeno kweJordani, eJeriko, empumalanga, lapho okuphuma khona ilanga.

The two tribes and the half-tribe have received their inheritance beyond the Jordan at Jericho eastward, toward the sunrise.

16 INkosi yasikhuluma kuMozisi isithi:

And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,

17 La ngamabizo amadoda azalabela ilizwe libe yilifa: UEleyazare umpristi loJoshuwa indodana kaNuni.

These are the names of the men who shall divide the land to you for inheritance: Eleazar the priest, and Joshua the son of Nun.

18 Njalo lizathatha isiphathamandla kuleso lalesosizwe ukwehlukanisa ilizwe libe yilifa.

And ye shall take one ruler of every tribe, to divide the land for inheritance.

19 Lala ngamabizo amadoda: Esizweni sakoJuda, uKalebi indodana kaJefune.

And these are the names of the men: Of the tribe of Judah, Caleb the son of Jephunneh.

20 Lesizweni sabantwana bakoSimeyoni, uShemuweli indodana kaAmihudi.

22 Lesizweni sabantwana bakoDani, isiphathamandla uBuki indodana kaJogili.

23 Ebantwaneni bakoJosefa, esizweni sabantwana bakoManase, isiphathamandla uHaniyeli indodana kaEfodi.

Of the sons of Joseph: of the tribe of the sons of Manasseh a ruler, Hanniel the son of Ephod,

24 Lesizweni sabantwana bakoEfrayimi, isiphathamandla uKemuweli indodana kaShifitani.

and of the tribe of the sons of Ephraim a ruler, Kemuel the son of Shiphtan.

25 Lesizweni sabantwana bakoZebuluni, isiphathamandla uElizafani indodana kaParinaki.

And of the tribe of the sons of Zebulun a ruler, Elizaphan the son of Parnach.

26 Lesizweni sabantwana bakoIsakari, isiphathamandla uPalitiyeli indodana kaAzani.

And of the tribe of the sons of Issachar a ruler, Paltiel the son of Azzan.

27 Lesizweni sabantwana bakoAsheri, isiphathamandla uAhiyudi indodana kaShelomi.

And of the tribe of the sons of Asher a ruler, Ahihud the son of Shelomi.

28 Lesizweni sabantwana bakoNafithali, isiphathamandla uPedaheli indodana kaAmihudi.

And of the tribe of the sons of Naphtali a ruler, Pedahel the son of Ammihud.

29 Yibo labo iNkosi eyabalaya ukwehlukanisela abantwana bakoIsrayeli ilifa elizweni leKhanani.

These are those whom Jehovah commanded to divide the inheritance to the sons of Israel in the land of Canaan.
