Lakkoobsa 34

1 Waaqayyo Museedhaan akkana jedhe;

And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:

2 “Akkana jedhii Israaʼeloota ajaji: ‘Yeroo isin Kanaʼaan seentanitti biyyi akka dhaalaatti isinii kennamtu sun daangaawwan kanneen qabaatti:

Command the children of Israel, and then shalt say to them: When you are entered into the land of Chanaan, and it shall be fallen into your possession by lot, it shall be bounded by these limits:

3 “‘Daangaan keessan kan gama kibbaa Gammoojjii Siin kan qarqara Edoom irra jirtu irraa jalqaba; karaa baʼaatiin daangaan keessan kan kibbaa dhuma Galaana Soogiddaa irraa jalqaba;

The south side shall begin from the wilderness of Sin, which is by Edom: and shall have the most salt sea for its furthest limits eastward:

4 daangaan keessan kibba irraa gara tabba Aqrabiimitti deebiʼee, gara Siinitti ceʼee hamma kibba Qaadesh Barneetti deema. Ergasiis gara Hazar Adaaritti ittuma fufee gara Azimoonitti darba.

Which limits shall go round on the south side by the ascent of the Scorpion and so into Senna, and reach toward the south as far as Cadesbarne, from whence the frontiers shall go out to the town called Adar, and shall reach as far as Asemona.

5 Daangaan sunis Azimoon irraa gara laga Gibxitti deebiʼee galaana gaʼee dhuma.

And the limits shall fetch a compass from Asemona to the torrent of Egypt, and shall end in the shore of the great sea.

6 Daangaan keessan kan gama dhiʼaa immoo qarqara Galaana guddichaa ti. Kunis gama dhiʼaatiin daangaa keessan taʼa.

And the west side shall begin from the great sea, and the same shall be the end thereof.

7 Daarii keessan kan kaabaatiif galaana guddaadhaa hamma Tulluu Huuritti,

But toward the north side the borders shall begin from the great sea, reaching to the most high mountain,

8 Tulluu Huuriitii hamma Leeboo Hamaatiitti mallattoo tolchaa. Daariin sunis hamma Zedaaditti deemee

From which they shall come to Emath, as far as the borders of Sedada:

9 hamma Ziifronitti itti fufee Hazar Eenaan irratti dhuma. Kunis daarii keessan kan kaabaa taʼa.

And the limits shall go as far as Zephrona, and the village of Enan. These shall be the borders on the north side.

10 Daarii keessan kan baʼaatiifis Hazar Eenaanii jalqabaatii hamma Shefaamaatti mallattoo tolchaa.

From thence they shall mark out the bounds towards the east side from the village of Enan unto Sephama.

11 Daariin sunis Shefaamaa jalqabee karaa baʼa Aayiniitiin hamma Riibilaatti gad buʼa; itti fufees hamma ededa gama baʼaa Galaana Kinereetitti argamuutti deema.

And from Sephama the bounds shall go down to Rebla over against the fountain of Daphnis: from thence they shall come eastward to the sea of Cenereth,

12 Daariin kunis Yordaanositti gad buʼee Galaana Soogiddaa gaʼee dhaabata. “‘Egaa biyyi gama hundaan daarii qabu kun keessan taʼa.’”

And shall reach as far as the Jordan, and at the last shall be closed in by the most salt sea. This shall be your land with its borders round about.

13 Museen akkana jedhee Israaʼeloota ajaje: “Biyya kana dhaala godhadhaatii ixaadhaan qoodadhaa; Waaqayyo akka biyyi kun gosa sagalii fi walakkaadhaaf kennamu ajajeera;

And Moses commanded the children of Israel, saying: This shall be the land which you shall possess by lot, and which the Lord hath commanded to be given to the nine tribes, and to the half tribe.

14 maatiiwwan gosa Ruubeen, kan gosa Gaadii fi walakkaan gosa Minaasee dhaala ofii fudhataniiruutii.

For the tribe of the children of Ruben by their families, and the tribe of the children of Gad according to the number of their kindreds, and half of the tribe of Manasses,

15 Gosoonni lamaanii fi walakkaan gosa tokkoo Yordaanos gamaa, fuullee Yerikootii gara baʼa biiftuutti karaa baʼaatiin dhaala isaanii argataniiru.”

That is, two tribes and a half, have received their portion beyond the Jordan over against Jericho at the east side.

16 Waaqayyo Museedhaan akkana jedhe;

And the Lord said to Moses:

17 “Maqaan namoota akka dhaalaatti lafa kana isinii qoodaniis Eleʼaazaar lubichaa fi Iyyaasuu ilma Nuunii ti.

These are the names of the men, that shall divide the land unto you: Eleazar the priest, and Josue the son of Nun,

18 Isinis akka isaan lafa dhaalaa qoodaniif tokkoo tokkoo gosaa keessaa hoogganaa tokko filadhaa.

And one prince of every tribe,

19 “Maqaan isaaniis kanneenii dha: “Gosa Yihuudaa keessaa, Kaaleb ilma Yefunee;

29 Namoonni kunneen warra Waaqayyo akka isaan biyya Kanaʼaan keessatti Israaʼelootaaf dhaala hiraniif isaan ajajee dha.

These are they whom the Lord hath commanded to divide the land of Chanaan to the children of Israel.
