Then the heads of fathers’ houses of the Levites came near to Eleazar the priest, and to Joshua the son of Nun, and to the heads of fathers’ houses of the tribes of the children of Israel.

2 तिनीहरूले कनानको भूमिमा शीलोमा तिनीहरूलाई भने, “परमप्रभुले मोशाद्वारा हाम्रा गाईवस्तुहरूका निम्ति खर्कसहितका बसोबास गर्न हामीलाई सहरहरू दिन आज्ञा गर्नुभएको थियो ।”

They spoke to them at Shiloh in the land of Canaan, saying, “The LORD commanded through Moses to give us cities to dwell in, with their pasture lands for our livestock.”

3 त्यसैले इस्राएलका मानिसहरूले परमप्रभुको आज्ञाद्वारा लेवीहरूलाई तिनीहरूका खर्कहरूसहित तिनीहरूको उत्तराधिकारबाट निम्‍न सहरहरू दिए ।

Nothing failed of any good thing which the LORD had spoken to the house of Israel. All came to pass.
