Siosiua 12

1 Ko e ngaahi tuʻi eni ʻoe fonua, ʻaia naʻe taaʻi ʻe he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻonau maʻu honau fonua ʻi he kauvai ʻe taha ʻo Sioatani ʻo hanga ki he hopoʻangalaʻā, mei he vaitafe ko ʻAlanoni ʻo aʻu ki he moʻunga ko Heamoni, pea mo e toafa kotoa pē ʻi he potu hahake:

The Israelis took control of the land that was east of the Jordan River, from the Arnon River gorge [in the south] to Hermon Mountain [in the north], including all the land on the eastern side of the Jordan [River] Valley. That land previously belonged to the two kings whose armies the Israelis defeated.

2 Ko Sihoni ko e tuʻi ʻoe kau ʻAmoli, ʻaia naʻe nofo ʻi Hesiponi, pea pule ʻe ia mei ʻAloeli, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he ngutu vaitafe ko ʻAlanoni, pea mei he vaeuaʻanga mālie ʻoe vaitafe, pea mei hono vaeuaʻanga ʻo Kiliati, ʻo aʻu ki he vaitafe ko Sapoki, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he veʻe fonua ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻAmoni:

One of them was Sihon, the king of the Amor people-group. He lived in Heshbon [city] and ruled over the area from Aroer [town] along the Arnon River Gorge, north to the Jabbok River. His land started in the middle of the gorge, which was the border between his land and the land of the Ammon people-group. Sihon also ruled over [the southern] half of the Gilead region,

3 Pea mei he toafa ki he tahi ʻo Kineloti ʻi he potu hahake, ʻo aʻu ki he tahi ʻoe toafa, ʻio, ʻae tahi kona ʻi he potu hahake, ko e hala ki Pete-sesimoti: pea mei he potu tonga, ʻi lalo ʻi ʻAsitoti-pisika:

and over the land on the eastern side of the Jordan [River] Valley, from Galilee Lake [south] to the Dead Sea. He also ruled over the land [east of the Dead Sea] from Beth-Jeshimoth south to the side of Pisgah Mountain.

4 Mo e ngaahi mata fonua ʻo Oki ko e tuʻi ʻo Pesani, ʻaia naʻe toe ia ʻi he kakai lalahi, pea naʻe nofo ʻi ʻAsitelote, pea ki ʻEtilei,

The other king whom the Israeli army defeated was Og, the king of the Bashan [region]. He was the last of the descendants of [the giant] Rapha. He ruled that land, living alternately in Ashtaroth and Edrei [cities].

5 Pea naʻe pule ia ʻi he moʻunga ko Heamoni, pea ʻi Salika, pea ʻi Pesani kotoa pē, ʻo aʻu ki he ngataʻanga ʻoe fonua ʻoe kau Kesuli mo e kau Meekati, mo hono vaeuaʻanga ʻa Kiliati, ko e ngataʻanga ʻo Sihoni ko e tuʻi ʻo Hesiponi.

He ruled over the area from Hermon Mountain and Salecah [in the north], and over all the Bashan area in the east, and to the borders of the kingdoms of Geshur and Maacah to the west. Og ruled [the northern] half of the Gilead region, as far as the border of the land ruled by King Sihon.

6 Naʻe teʻia ʻakinautolu ʻe Mōsese ko e tamaioʻeiki ʻa Sihova mo e fānau ʻa ʻIsileli: pea naʻe foaki ia ʻe Mōsese ko e tamaioʻeiki ʻa Sihova ki he faʻahinga ʻo Lupeni, mo e faʻahinga ʻo Kata, mo hono vaeuaʻanga ʻoe faʻahinga ʻo Manase ko honau tofiʻa.

Moses, the man who served Yahweh [well], and all the Israeli army defeated the armies of those kings. Then Moses gave that land to the tribes of Reuben and Gad and half of the tribe of Manasseh.

7 Pea ko e ngaahi tuʻi eni ʻoe fonua ʻaia naʻe taaʻi ʻe Siosiua mo e fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻi he potu ni ʻo Sioatani ʻi he lulunga, mei Peali kata ʻi he teleʻa ʻo Lepanoni ʻo aʻu ki he moʻunga ko Halaki, ʻaia ʻoku ʻalu hake ki Seia; ʻaia naʻe foaki ʻe Siosiua ki he ngaahi faʻahinga ʻo ʻIsileli ko honau tofiʻa ʻo fakatatau ki honau ngaahi vahe;

Joshua and the Israeli army also defeated kings who ruled over the land on the west side of the Jordan [River]. He gave that land to the Israeli people, dividing it among the other tribes. That land was between Baal-Gad [city] in the Lebanon Valley [in the far north all the way south] to Halak Mountain, which is near the land of the Edom people-group.

8 ‌ʻI he ngaahi moʻunga, pea ʻi he ngaahi teleʻa, pea ʻi he ngaahi toafa, pea ʻi he ngaahi matavai, pea ʻi he vao lahi, pea ʻi he fonua ki he potu tonga; ko e kau Heti, ko e kau ʻAmoli, mo e kau Kēnani, ko e kau Pelesi, mo e kau Hevi, mo e kau Sepusi.

That land included the mountains, the western hilly area, the Jordan [River] Valley, the [western] slopes of the mountains, the desert [in Judea], and the Negev [desert in the south]. That whole area was the land where the Heth, Amor, Canaan, Periz, Hiv, and Jebus people-groups lived. The Israeli army defeated the armies of the kings of each of these cities:
