1 BWANA akanena na Musa akasema,
And the Lord said to Moses,
2 “Waamuru watu wa Israeli na uwaambie, 'Mtakapoingia katika nchi ya Kanaani, nchi ambayo itakuwa mali yenu, nchi ya Kanaani na mipaka yake, mpaka wenu wa kusini utaendelea kutoka nyika ya Sini hadi mpaka wa Edomu.
Give orders to the children of Israel and say to them, When you come into the land of Canaan; (this is the land which is to be your heritage, the land of Canaan inside these limits, )
3 Mwisho wa mpaka wa kusini utakuwa mwisho wa bahari ya chumvi kuelekea mashariki.
Then your south quarter will be from the waste land of Zin by the side of Edom, and your limit on the south will be from the east end of the Salt Sea,
4 Mpaka wenu utageukia kusini kutoka mlima kuelekea Akrabimu na kupitia nyika ya Sini. na kutokea huko utaelelkea kusini mwa Kadeshi Barinea na kuelekea Hazari Adari mpaka Azimoni.
And round to the south of the slope of Akrabbim, and on to Zin: and its direction will be south of Kadesh-barnea, and it will go as far as Hazar-addar and on to Azmon:
5 Kutoka huko, mpaka utageuka kutoka Azimoni kuelekea kijito cha Misri na kukifuata mpaka baharini.
And from Azmon it will go round to the stream of Egypt as far as the sea.
6 Mpaka wa Magharibi utakuwa pwani ya bahari kuu. Huu ndio utakuwa mpaka wenuwa Magharibi.
And for your limit on the west you will have the Great Sea and its edge: this will be your limit on the west.
7 Mpaka wenu wa kaskazini utaanzia kwenye bahari kuu hadi Mlima Hori,
And your limit on the north will be the line from the Great Sea to Mount Hor:
8 kisha kutoka Mlima Hori hadi Lebo Hamathi, kisha Zedadi.
And from Mount Hor the line will go in the direction of Hamath; the farthest point of it will be at Zedad:
9 Mpaka utaendelea hadi Zifroni na kuishia Hazari Enani. Huu ndio utakuwa mpaka wenu wa kaskazini.
And the limit will go on to Ziphron, with its farthest point at Hazar-enan: this will be your limit on the north.
10 Kisha mtaweka alama za mpaka wenu wa mashariki ambao utaanzia Hazari Enani kuelekea kusini Shefamu.
And on the east, your limit will be marked out from Hazar-enan to Shepham,
11 Kisha mpaka wa kusini utaendelea kutoka Shefamu hadi Ribla, upande wa masharikia mwa Aini. Mpaka utaedelea upande huo wa mashariki hadi upande wa mashariki wa bahari ya Kinerethi.
Going down from Shepham to Riblah on the east side of Ain, and on as far as the east side of the sea of Chinnereth:
12 Kisha mpaka utaendelea kuelekea kusini hadi mto Yorodani na hadi bahari ya chumvi. Hii ndiyo itakuwa nchi yenu, kwa kuifuata mipaka yake yote inayozunguka.'”
And so down to Jordan, stretching to the Salt Sea: all the land inside these limits will be yours.
13 Kisha Musa akawaamuru watu wa Israeli akasema, “Hii ndiyo nchi ambayo mtaipokes kwa kura, ambayo BWANA ameamuru kuwapa wale makabila tisa na nusu.
And Moses gave orders to the children of Israel saying, This is the land which is to be your heritage, by the decision of the Lord, which by the Lord's order is to be given to the nine tribes and the half-tribe:
14 Kabila ya uzao wa Reubeni, kwa kufuata jinsi walivyopewa urithi kwa jamaa ya kabila yao, na uzao wa kabila la Gadi, kwa kufuata jinsi walivyopewa urithi kwa jamaa ya kabila yao, na nusu ya Manase wamepata ardhi yao.
For the tribe of the children of Reuben, by their fathers' families, and the tribe of the children of Gad, by their fathers' families, and the half-tribe of Manasseh, have been given their heritage:
15 Wale makabila mawili na nusu wameshapata mgawo wao ng'ambo ya mto Yorodani upande wa mashariki, kuelekea kule linakotokea jua.”
The two tribes and the half-tribe have been given their heritage on the other side of Jordan at Jericho, on the east looking to the dawn.
16 BWANA akanena na Musa akasema,
And the Lord said to Moses,
17 “Haya ndiyo majinaya watu watakaoigawa ardhi kwa ajili ya urithi wao: Eliazari kuhani na Joshua mwana wa Nuni.
These are the names of the men who are to make the distribution of the land among you: Eleazar the priest and Joshua, the son of Nun.
18 Mtachagua kiongozi mmoja toka kila kabila ili kuigawa ardhi kwa koo zao.
And you are to take one chief from every tribe to make the distribution of the land.
19 Haya ndiyo majina ya wanaume: Kutoka kabila la Yuda, Kalebu mwana wa Yefune.
And these are the names of the men: of the tribe of Judah, Caleb, the son of Jephunneh.
20 Kutoka kwenye kabila la uzao wa Simeoni, Shemueli mwana wa Amihudi.
And of the tribe of the children of Simeon, Shemuel, the son of Ammihud.
21 Kutoka kabila la Benjamini, Elidadi mwana wa Kisloni.
Of the tribe of Benjamin, Elidad, the son of Chislon.
22 Kiongozi kutoka kabila la uzao wa Dani, Buki mwana wa Jogili.
And of the tribe of the children of Dan, a chief, Bukki, the son of Jogli.
23 Kiongozi kutoka uzao wa Yusufu, kwenye kabila la Manase, Hannieli mwana wa Efodi.
Of the children of Joseph: of the tribe of the children of Manasseh, a chief, Hanniel, the son of Ephod:
24 Kiongozi kutoka kwenye kabila la uzao wa Efraimu, Kemueli mwana wa Shiftani.
And of the tribe of the children of Ephraim, a chief, Kemuel, the son of Shiphtan.
25 Kiongozi kutoka kabila la uzao wa Zabuloni, Elizafani mwana wa Parinaki.
And of the tribe of the children of Zebulun, a chief, Elizaphan, the son of Parnach.
26 Kiongozi kutoka kwenye kabila la uzao wa Isakari, Palitieli mwana wa Azzani.
And of the tribe of the children of Issachar, a chief, Paltiel, the son of Azzan.
27 Kiongozi kutoka kabila la uzao wa Asheri, Ahihudi mwana wa Shelomi.
And of the tribe of the children of Asher, a chief, Ahihud, the son of Shelomi.
28 Kiongozi kutoka kabila la uzao wa Naftali, Pedaheli mwana wa Amihudi.”
And of the tribe of the children of Naphtali, a chief, Pedahel, the son of Ammihud.
29 BWANA aliwaamuru wanaume hawa kuigawa nchi ya Kanaani na kuwapa kila kabla sehemu yao.
These are they to whom the Lord gave orders to make the distribution of the heritage among the children of Israel in the land of Canaan.
