< Jozue 18 >
1 Celotna skupnost Izraelovih otrok se je zbrala skupaj pri Šilu in tam postavila šotorsko svetišče skupnosti. In dežela je bila podjarmljena pred njimi.
Then the whole assembly of the people of Israel met together at Shiloh. They set up the tent of meeting there and they conquered the land before them.
2 Tam je med Izraelovimi otroki ostalo sedem rodov, ki še niso prejeli svoje dediščine.
There were still seven tribes among the people of Israel whose inheritance had not been assigned.
3 Józue je rekel Izraelovim otrokom: »Doklej se obirate, da greste, da vzamete v last deželo, ki vam jo je dal Gospod, Bog vaših očetov?
Joshua said to the people of Israel, “How long will you put off going into the land that Yahweh, the God of your ancestors, has given you?
4 Dajte izmed sebe tri može za vsak rod in poslal jih bom in vstali bodo in šli skozi deželo in jo opisali glede na njihovo dediščino in ponovno bodo prišli k meni.
Appoint for yourselves three men from each tribe, and I will send them out. They will set out and survey the land up and down. They will write out a description of it with a view to their inheritances, and then they will come back to me.
5 To bodo razdelili na sedem delov. Juda bo ostal v svojih pokrajinah na jugu in Jožefova hiša bo ostala v svojih pokrajinah na severu.
They will divide it into seven sections. Judah will remain in their territory on the south, and the house of Joseph will continue in their territory in the north.
6 Vi boste torej opisali deželo v sedmih delih in opis prinesli sèm k meni, da lahko mečem žrebe za vas tukaj pred Gospodom, svojim Bogom.
You will describe the land in seven sections and bring the description here to me. I will cast lots for you here before Yahweh our God.
7 Toda Lévijevci nimajo deleža med vami, kajti Gospodovo duhovništvo je njihova dediščina. Gad, Ruben in polovica Manásejevega rodu so prejeli svojo dediščino onkraj Jordana, na vzhodu, ki jim jo je dal Gospodov služabnik Mojzes.«
The Levites have no portion among you, for the priesthood of Yahweh is their inheritance. Gad, Reuben, and the half tribe of Manasseh have received their inheritance, beyond Jordan. This is the inheritance that Moses the servant of Yahweh gave them.”
8 Možje so vstali ter odšli stran in Józue jim je naročil, da gredo, da opišejo deželo, rekoč: »Pojdite in hodite skozi deželo in jo opišite in ponovno pridite k meni, da bom tukaj v Šilu za vas lahko vrgel žrebe pred Gospodom.«
So the men got up and went. Joshua commanded those who went to write the description of the land, saying, “Go up and down in the land and write a description of it and return to me. I will cast lots for you here before Yahweh at Shiloh.”
9 Možje so odšli in šli skozi deželo in jo v knjigi opisali po mestih v sedmih delih in ponovno prišli k Józuetu, k vojski pri Šilu.
The men left and walked up and down in the land and wrote a description of it in a scroll by its cities in seven sections, listing the cities in each section. Then they returned to Joshua in the camp at Shiloh.
10 Józue je zanje v Šilu metal žrebe pred Gospodom in tam je Józue Izraelovim otrokom razdelil deželo glede na njihove oddelke.
Then Joshua cast lots for them at Shiloh before Yahweh. It was there that Joshua assigned the land to the people of Israel, and to each was given his portion of the land.
11 Žreb rodu Benjaminovih otrok je prišel gor glede na njihove družine in pokrajina njihovega žreba je prišla naprej med Judovimi otroki in Jožefovimi otroki.
The assignment of land for the tribe of Benjamin clan by clan. The territory of their assigned land was located between the descendants of Judah and the descendants of Joseph.
12 Njihova meja na severni strani je bila od Jordana in meja je šla gor k strani Jerihe na severni strani in se dvigala skozi gore proti zahodu in njeni izhodi so bili pri divjini Bet Aven.
On the north side, their border began at the Jordan. The border went up to the ridge north of Jericho, and then up through the hill country westward. There it reached the wilderness of Beth Aven.
13 Meja je od tam šla preko, proti Luzu, k strani Luza, ki je Betel, proti jugu in meja se je spustila k Atrót Adárju, blizu hriba, ki leži na južni strani spodnjega Bet Horóna.
From there the border passed along south in the direction of Luz (the same place as Bethel). Then the border went down to Ataroth Addar, by the mountain that lies south of Beth Horon.
14 Meja je bila potegnjena od tam in obdala vogal morja proti jugu, od hriba, ki leži pred Bet Horónom proti jugu in njihovi izhodi so bili pri Kirját Báalu, ki je Kirját Jearím, mesto Judovih otrok. To je bila zahodna četrtina.
The boundary then went in another direction: On the western side it turned toward the south, heading toward the mountain across from Beth Horon. This boundary ended at Kiriath Baal (that is, Kiriath Jearim), a city that belonged to the tribe of Judah. This formed the border on the western side.
15 Južna četrtina je bila od konca Kirját Jearíma in meja se je nadaljevala na zahod in izšla pri izviru vodá Neftóaha
The south side began just outside of Kiriath Jearim. The border went from there to Ephron, to the spring of the waters of Nephtoah.
16 in meja se je spustila k vznožju gore, ki leži pred dolino sina Hinómovega in ki je v dolini velikanov na severu in se spustila k Hinómovi dolini, k strani Jebúsa na jugu in se spustila k En Rogelu
The boundary then went down to the border of the mountain which was opposite the Valley of Ben Hinnom, which was at the northern end of the Valley of Rephaim. It then went down to the Valley of Hinnom, south of the slope of the Jebusites, and continued down to En Rogel.
17 in potegnjena je bila od severa in šla naprej k En Šemešu in šla naprej proti Gelilótu, ki je nasproti vzpona k Adumímu in se spustila h kamnu Rubenovega sina Bohana
It turned northward, going in the direction of En Shemesh, and from there it went out to Geliloth, which was opposite the ascent of Adummim. Then it went down to the Stone of Bohan the son of Reuben.
18 in šla naprej proti strani nasproti Arábi proti severu in se spustila k Arábi.
It passed on to the north of the shoulder of Beth Arabah and down to the Arabah.
19 Meja je šla vzdolž strani Bet Hogle proti severu in izhodi meje so bili pri severnem zalivu slanega morja, pri južnem koncu Jordana. To je bila južna pokrajina.
The border passed on to the north shoulder of Beth Hoglah. The border ended at the north bay of the Salt Sea, at the southern end of the Jordan. This was the boundary on the south.
20 Jordan je bil njegova meja na vzhodni strani. To je bila dediščina Benjaminovih otrok, po njihovih pokrajinah naokoli, glede na njihove družine.
The Jordan formed its border on the eastern side. This was the inheritance of the tribe of Benjamin, and it was given clan by clan, border after border, all around.
21 Torej mesta rodov Benjaminovih otrok glede na njihove družine so bila Jeriha, Bet Hogla, dolina Kecíc,
Now the cities of the tribe of Benjamin, clan by clan, had these cities: Jericho, Beth Hoglah, Emek Keziz,
22 Bet Arába, Cemarájim, Betel,
Beth Arabah, Zemaraim, Bethel,
24 Kefár Amoní, Ofní in Gaba, dvanajst mest z njihovimi vasmi.

There were also the cities of Gibeon, Ramah, Beeroth,
27 Rekem, Jirpeél, Tarála,
Rekem, Irpeel, Taralah,
28 Cela, Elef, Jebús, kar je Jeruzalem, Gíbea in Kirját, štirinajst mest z njihovimi vasmi. To je dediščina Benjaminovih otrok glede na njihove družine.
Zelah, Haeleph, Jebus (the same as Jerusalem), Gibeah, and Kiriath. There were fourteen cities, including their villages. This was the inheritance of Benjamin for their clans.
