Yashuuca 18
1 Oo shirkii reer binu Israa'iil oo dhammu Shiiloh bay dhammaantood isugu soo urureen, oo waxay halkaas ka dhiseen teendhadii shirka; oo dadkii waddankana waa laga adkaaday.
The land had been subdued and lay before them. The Israelites gathered together at Shiloh and set up the Tent of Meeting.
2 Oo reer binu Israa'iil dhexdooda waxaa ku hadhay toddoba qabiil oo aan weli helin qaybtii ay dhaxalka u lahaayeen.
However, seven of the Israelite tribes had not received their land allocations.
3 Markaasaa Yashuuca wuxuu reer binu Israa'iil ku yidhi, Dalkii uu Rabbiga ah Ilaaha awowayaashiin idin siiyey ilaa goormaad ka raagaysaan inaad gashaan si aad dalka u hantidaan?
So Joshua asked the Israelites, “How long will you go on being reluctant to go and take possession of the land that the Lord gave your forefathers?
4 Haddaba qabiil walba saddex nin kala soo baxa; oo anigu iyaga waan diri doonaa, markaas waa inay kacaan, oo dalka dhex maraan, oo soo kala tilmaamaan siday u kala dhaxlayaan, oo markaas waa inay ii yimaadaan.
Choose three men from each tribe and I will send them out to explore the land. Then they can write a description regarding the land allocations and bring it to me.
5 Oo waa inay dalka u kala qaybiyaan toddoba meelood. Reer Yahuudah waa inay degganaadaan soohdintooda ah xagga koonfureed, oo reer Yuusufna waa inay degganaadaan soohdintooda ah xagga woqooyi.
They are to divide the land into seven parts, up to the boundary of Judah's land in the south and Joseph's land in the north.
6 Oo waa inaad dalka u soo kala tilmaantaan toddoba meelood, oo aad tilmaanta ii keentaan, oo markaasaan halkan idiinku saami ridi doonaa Rabbiga Ilaaheenna ah hortiisa.
Once you have written the description the land, dividing it in seven parts, you will bring it to me here and I will cast lots for you in the presence of the Lord our God.
7 Maxaa yeelay, reer Laawi dhexdiinna qayb dhaxal ah kuma laha; waayo wadaadnimada Rabbiga ayaa dhaxal u ah. Oo reer Gaad iyo reer Ruubeen iyo qabiilkii reer Manaseh badhkood waxay dhaxal u qaateen meel Webi Urdun ka shishaysa oo xagga bari ka xigta, oo Muuse oo addoonkii Rabbiga ahaa uu iyaga siiyey.
But the Levites do not receive a share, for their role as priests of the Lord is their allocation. Also, Gad, Reuben, and the half-tribe of Manasseh have already received their allocation that Moses, the servant of the Lord, gave them on the east side of the Jordan.”
8 Markaasaa raggii kaceen oo tageen; oo kuwii tegey inay dalka soo tilmaamaan Yashuuca ayaa ku amray, oo ku yidhi, Taga oo dalka dhex mara, oo soo tilmaama, oo haddana aniga ii kaalaya, oo markaasaan halkan Shiiloh ah idiinku saami ridi doonaa Rabbiga hortiisa.
As the men started out on their way to explore the land. Joshua told them, “Go throughout the land and write a description of what you find. Then return to me and I will cast lots for you in the presence of the Lord here in Shiloh.”
9 Markaasay raggii tageen oo dalkii soo dhex mareen, oo waxay soo kala tilmaameen magaalooyinkii oo toddoba meelood u kala qaybsan, oo waxayna ku soo qoreen buug, oo markaasay u yimaadeen Yashuuca oo joogay xerada Shiiloh ku taal.
So the men went and explored the land and wrote down on a scroll a description of the seven parts, recording the towns in each part. Then they returned to Joshua at the camp in Shiloh
10 Markaasaa Yashuuca Shiiloh ugu saami riday iyagii Rabbiga hortiisa; oo halkaasaa Yashuuca reer binu Israa'iil ugu qaybshay dalkii sidii ay u kala qaybsanaayeen.
where Joshua cast lots for them in the presence of the Lord. There Joshua divided the land up and allotted the different parts to the remaining Israelite tribes.
11 Oo qabiilkii reer Benyaamiin saamigoodii ay u heleen sidii ay reerahoodii kala ahaayeen ayaa u soo hor baxay; oo soohdintoodii ay saamiga u heleen waxay kala dhex mari jirtay reer Yahuudah iyo reer Yuusuf.
The first lot cast went to the tribe of Benjamin, by families. The land allotted lay between that of the tribe of Judah and the tribe of Joseph.
12 Oo soohdintoodu xagga waaxda woqooyi waxay ka bilaabatay Webi Urdun; oo soohdintu waxay u baxday Yerixoo dhinaceeda woqooyi, oo waxay dhex martay dalka buuraha leh xaggiisa galbeed; oo dhammaadkeedii wuxuu u baxay cidladii Beytaawen.
Their boundary began at the Jordan, and went north of the slope of Jericho, west through the hill country, coming out at the wilderness of Beth-aven.
13 Oo soohdintu waxay halkaas uga gudubtay Luus (taasoo ah Beytel), iyo ilaa dhinaceeda koonfureed, oo soohdintu waxay ku dhaadhacday Cataarood Addaar, taasoo u dhow buurta ku taal Beytxooroonta hoose xaggeeda koonfureed.
Then the boundary went south to Luz (or Bethel) and on down to Ataroth-addar on the mountain south of Lower Beth-horon.
14 Oo soohdintu waxay u baxday oo ka laabatay waaxda galbeed xaggeeda koonfureed, iyo xagga buurta ku hor taal Beytxooroon xaggeeda koonfureed; oo soohdinta dhammaadkeedu wuxuu u baxay Qiryad Bacal taasoo ah Qiryad Yecaariim ee ahayd magaalo ay reer Yahuudah leeyihiin, intaasu waxay ahayd waaxdii galbeed.
Here the boundary turned south along the western side of the mountain facing Beth-horon, finishing at Kiriath-baal (or Kiriath-jearim), a town of the tribe of Judah. This was the western boundary.
15 Oo waaxdii koonfureedna waxay ka bilaabatay meesha ugu fog Qiryad Yecaariim, oo soohdintu waxay martay xagga galbeed, oo waxay u baxday ishii biyaha ahayd oo Neftoo'ax;
The southern boundary began at the edge of Kiriath-jearim. It ran to the spring at Nephtoah,
16 oo soohdintu waxay ku dhaadhacday meesha ugu fog buurta ku hor taal dooxadii ina Xinnom, taasoo ku taal xagga woqooyi oo dooxada reer Rafaa, oo waxay ku dhaadhacday ilaa dooxadii Xinnom, iyo ilaa dhinaca reer Yebuus xaggooda koonfureed, oo waxay kaloo sii martay Ceyn Rogeel,
and then down to the foot of the mountain that faces the valley of Ben-hinnom, at the north end of the valley of Rephaim. Then it went down the valley of Hinnom, along the slope near the Jebusite town, south towards En-rogel.
17 oo waxay u leexatay xagga woqooyi, oo waxay martay Ceyn Shemesh agteeda; oo waxay u baxday Geliilood, taasoo ka soo hor jeedda jiirta Adummiim; oo haddana waxay u baxday dhagaxii Bohan ina Ruubeen;
From there it headed north to En-shemesh and on to Geliloth, opposite the heights of Adummim, and then on down to the Stone of Bohan (Reuben's son).
18 oo waxay sii martay dhinaca ka soo hor jeeda Caraabaah xaggeeda woqooyi, oo waxay ku dhaadhacday Caraabaah;
Then it went along the ridge opposite the Jordan Valley to the north, and then down into the Jordan Valley itself.
19 oo soohdintu waxay sii martay Beytxoglaah dhinaceeda woqooyi; oo soohdinta dhammaadkeedu wuxuu ahaa xagga gacanka woqooyi oo Badda Cusbada leh, ee ku yaal Webi Urdun dhammaadkiisa koonfureed meesha uu ku dhammaado; intaasu waa soohdintii koonfureed.
From there it ran along the north slope of Beth-hoglah, ending at the north bay of the Salt Sea, the southern end of the Jordan. This was the southern boundary.
20 Waaxda bari soohdinteeduna waxay ahayd Webi Urdun. Intaasu waxay ahayd dhaxalkii reer Benyaamiin iyo soohdimihii ku wareegsanaa, ee ay u heleen sidii reerahoodu ahaayeen.
The eastern boundary was the Jordan. These were the boundaries around the land of the tribe of Benjamin, by families.
21 Haddaba magaalooyinkii reer Benyaamiin siday reerahoodu ahaayeen waxay ahaayeen Yerixoo, iyo Beytxoglaah, iyo Dooxadii Qesiis,
