Yoshua 13
1 Sasa Yoshua alikuwa mzee wakati Yahweh alipomwambia, “Umekuwa mzee, lakini bado kuna nchi kubwa ya kuteka.
And Joshua was old, advanced in age, and Jehovah said to him, Thou art old, advanced in age, and there remaineth yet very much land to take possession of.
2 Nchi iliyosalia ndio hii: mikoa yote ya Wafilisti, na mikoa ile ya Wageshuri,
This is the land that yet remaineth: all the districts of the Philistines and all the Geshurites,
3 (tangu Shihori, iliyoko mashariki mwa Misri, na upande wa kaskazini kuelekea mpaka wa Ekroni, inayofikiriwa kuwa ni mali ya Wakanaani; wafalme watano wa Wafilisti, wale wafalme wa Gaza, Ashidodi, Ashikeloni, Gathi na Ekroni - miliki ya Waavi.
from the Shihor, which [floweth] before Egypt, as far as the borders of Ekron northward, [and which] is counted to the Canaanite; five lordships of the Philistines: of Gazah, and of Ashdod, of Eshkalon, of Gath, and of Ekron; also the Avvites;
4 Katika upande wa kusini, kulisalia nchi yote ya Wakanaani, na Meara ambayo ni miliki ya Wasidoni, hadi Afeki, hata mpaka wa Waamori;
in the south, the whole land of the Canaanites, and Mearah which [belongeth] to the Sidonians, unto Aphek, to the border of the Amorites;
5 nchi ya Wagebali, Lebanoni kuelekea upande wa mapambazuko ya jua, kutoka Baali- Gadi chini ya Mlima Hermoni mpaka Lebo Hamathi.
and the land of the Giblites, and all Lebanon, toward the sun-rising, from Baal-Gad at the foot of mount Hermon to the entrance into Hamath;
6 Pia, wenyeji wote wa nchi ya milima kutoka Lebanoni hadi Misrefothi - Maimu, pamoja na watu wa Sidoni. Nitawafukuza mbele ya jeshi la Israeli. Uwe na uhakika wa kuwapa Waisraeli nchi kama urithi, kama nilivyokuagiza.
all the inhabitants of the hill-country from Lebanon to Misrephoth-maim, all the Sidonians; I will dispossess them from before the children of Israel. Only, partition it by lot to Israel for an inheritance, as I have commanded thee.
7 Igawanye nchi hii kama urithi kwa makabila tisa na kwa nusu ya kabila la Manase.
And now divide this land for an inheritance to the nine tribes, and to half the tribe of Manasseh;
8 Pamoja na nusu nyingine ya kabila la Manase, Wareubeni na Wagadi wamekwisha kupokea urithi wao ambao Musa aliwapa katika upande wa mashariki wa Yordani,
with him the Reubenites and the Gadites have received their inheritance, which Moses gave them, beyond the Jordan eastward, as Moses the servant of Jehovah gave them:
9 kutoka Aroeri, iliyo katika ukingo wa bonde la mto Arnoni (kujumuisha na mji ambao uko katikati ya bonde), kwa nyanda zote za Medeba hadi Diboni;
from Aroer, which is on the bank of the river Arnon, and the city that is in the midst of the ravine, and all the plateau of Medeba to Dibon,
10 miji yote ya Sihoni, mfalme wa Waamori, ambaye alitawala katika Heshiboni, hata mpaka wa Waamori,
and all the cities of Sihon the king of the Amorites, who reigned at Heshbon, to the border of the children of Ammon;
11 Gileadi na mkoa wa Wageshuri na Maakathi, mlima wote wa Hermoni, Bashani yote mpaka Saleka;
and Gilead, and the border of the Geshurites and Maachathites, and all mount Hermon, and the whole of Bashan to Salcah;
12 ufalme wote wa Ogu katika Bashani, aliyetawala katika Ashitarothi na Edrei - hawa ni wale waliosalia katika Refaimu - ambao Musa aliwapiga na kuwafukuzia mbali.
all the kingdom of Og in Bashan, who reigned at Ashtaroth and at Edrei, who remained of the residue of the giants; and Moses smote them and dispossessed them.
13 Lakini watu wa Israeli hawakuwafukuza Wageshuri wala Wamakathi. Badala yake, Wageshuri na Wamakathi wanaishi miongoni mwa Waisraeli hadi leo.
But the children of Israel did not dispossess the Geshurites nor the Maachathites; but the Geshurites and the Maachathites dwell among the Israelites to this day.
14 Kabila la Lawi pekee halikupewa urithi na Musa. Urithi wao ni sadaka za Yahweh, Mungu wa Israeli, zilizotolewa kwa moto, kama Mungu alivyomwagiza Musa.
Only to the tribe of Levi he gave no inheritance: the offerings by fire of Jehovah the God of Israel are their inheritance, as he said to them.
15 Musa aliwapa urithi kabila la Rubeni, ukoo kwa ukoo.
And Moses gave [a portion] to the tribe of the children of Reuben according to their families.
16 Miliki yao ilikuwa kutoka Aroeri, juu ya ukingo wa bonde la Mto Arnoni, na mji ulio katikati ya bonde, na nyanda zote za Medeba.
And their territory was from Aroer, which is on the bank of the river Arnon, and the city that is in the midst of the ravine, and all the plateau by Medeba;
17 Wareubeni walipata pia Heshiboni, na miji yake yote zilizo katika uwanda, Diboni, na Bamathi Baali, na Bethi Baalimeoni,
Heshbon, and all her cities that are in the plateau, Dibon, and Bamoth-Baal, and Beth-Baal-meon,
18 na Yahazi, na Kedemothi, na Mefaathi,
And Jahzah, and Kedemoth, and Mephaath,
19 na Kiriathaimu, na Sibuma, na Zerethishahari juu ya kilima cha bonde.
and Kirjathaim, and Sibmah, and Zereth-shahar in the mountain of the vale,
20 Wareubeni walipata pia Bethi Peori, miteremko ya Pisiga, Bethi Yeshimothi,
and Beth-Peor, and the slopes of Pisgah, and Beth-jeshimoth;
21 miji yote ya uwanda, na ufalme wote wa Sihoni, mfalme wa Waamori, ambaye alikuwa ametawala katika Heshiboni, ambaye Musa alikuwa amemshinda pamoja na viongozi wa Midiani, Evi, Rekemu, Zuri, Huri na Reba, wana wa mfalme wa Sihoni, ambao walikuwa wameishi katika nchi.
all the cities of the plateau, and the whole kingdom of Sihon the king of the Amorites, who reigned at Heshbon, whom Moses smote, him and the princes of Midian, Evi, and Rekem, and Zur, and Hur, and Reba, the chiefs of Sihon dwelling in the land.
22 Pia, watu wa Israeli walimwua kwa upanga Baalam mwana wa Beori, ambaye alifanya mambo ya uaguzi, miongoni mwa wale waliowaua.
And Balaam the son of Beor, the diviner, did the children of Israel kill with the sword among them that were slain by them.
23 Mpaka wa kabila la Rubeni ni Mto Yordani; huu ndio mpaka wao. Huu ulikuwa ni urithi wa kabila la Rubeni, uliotolewa kwa kila ukoo, pamoja na miji na vijiji vyao.
And the border of the children of Reuben was the Jordan, and [its] border. This is the inheritance of the children of Reuben according to their families, the cities and their hamlets.
24 Hiki ndicho Musa alilipa kabila la Gadi, ukoo kwa ukoo:
And Moses gave [a portion] to the tribe of Gad, to the children of Gad according to their families.
25 Himaya yao ilikuwa Yazeri, miji yote ya Gileadi na nusu ya nchi ya Waamoni, hadi Aroeri, iliyo mashariki mwa Raba,
And their territory was Jaazer, and all the cities of Gilead, and half the land of the children of Ammon, to Aroer which is before Rabbah;
26 kutoka Heshiboni hadi Ramathi - Mizipe na Betonimu, kutoka Mahanaimu mpaka himaya ya Debiri.
and from Heshbon to Ramath-Mizpeh, and Betonim; and from Mahanaim to the border of Debir;
27 Katika bonde, Musa aliwapa Bethi -Haramu, Bethi - Nimra, Sukothi, na Zafoni, ufalme uliobakia wa Sihoni mfalme wa Heshiboni, pamoja na Yordani kama mpaka, katika sehemu za chini za mwisho wa Bahari ya Kinerethi, upande wa mashariki ng'ambo ya Yordani.
and in the valley, Beth-haram, and Beth-Nimrah, and Succoth, and Zaphon, the rest of the kingdom of Sihon the king of Heshbon, the Jordan and [its] border, as far as the edge of the sea of Chinnereth beyond the Jordan eastward.
28 Huu ni urithi wa kabila la Gadi, ukoo kwa ukoo, pamoja na miji na vijiji vyao.
This is the inheritance of the children of Gad according to their families, the cities and their hamlets.
29 Musa aliwapa urithi nusu ya kabila la Manase. Urithi uligawiwa kwa nusu ya kabila la watu wa Manase kutokana na kabila zao.
And Moses gave [a portion] to half the tribe of Manasseh; and for half the tribe of the children of Manasseh according to their families:
30 Miliki yao ilikuwa kutoka Mahanaimu, Bashani yote, ufalme wote wa mfalme Ogu wa Bashani, na miji yote ya Yairi, iliyo katika Bashani, miji sitini;
their territory was from Mahanaim, all Bashan, the whole kingdom of Og the king of Bashan, and all the villages of Jair, which are in Bashan, sixty cities.
31 nusu ya Gileadi, na Ashitarothi na Edrei (miji ya kifalme ya Ogu katika Bashani). Miji hii iligawanywa kwa ukoo wa Makiri mwana wa Manase -nusu ya watu wa Makiri, walipewa kwa kila familia zao.
And half Gilead, and Ashtaroth, and Edrei, the cities of the kingdom of Og in Bashan, [belonged] to the children of Machir the son of Manasseh, to the one half of the children of Machir according to their families.
32 Huu ndio urithi ambao Musa aliowagawia katika nyanda za Moabu, ng'ambo ya Yordani mashariki mwa Yeriko.
This is that which Moses allotted for inheritance in the plains of Moab, beyond the Jordan of Jericho, eastward.
33 Musa hakulipa urithi kabila la Lawi. kwa kuwa Yahweh, Mungu wa israeli, ni urithi wao, kama vile alivyowaambia.
But to the tribe of Levi Moses gave no inheritance: Jehovah the God of Israel is their inheritance, as he said to them.
