Now these [are] the names of the tribes. From the north end to the coast of the way of Hethlon, as one goeth to Hamath, Hazar-enan, the border of Damascus northward, to the coast of Hamath; for these are his sides east [and] west; a [portion for] Dan.

And by the border of Dan, from the east side unto the west side, a [portion for] Asher.

8 “Yuda nsase no hye a efi apuei kosi atɔe no so na kyɛfa a wode bɛma sɛ akyɛde sononko no bedi. Ne trɛw bɛyɛ anammɔn mpem aduasa ason ne ahannum. Na ne tenten, efi apuei kosi atɔe no ne mmusuakuw no kyɛfa baako bɛyɛ pɛ, na kronkronbea no bɛwɔ mfimfini.

And by the border of Judah, from the east side unto the west side, shall be the offering which ye shall offer of five and twenty thousand [reeds in] breadth, and [in] length as one of the [other] parts, from the east side unto the west side: and the sanctuary shall be in the midst of it.

9 “Kyɛfa sononko a wode bɛma Awurade no tenten bɛyɛ anammɔn mpem aduasa ason ne ahannum. Na ne trɛw ayɛ anammɔn mpem dunum.

The oblation that ye shall offer unto the LORD [shall be] of five and twenty thousand in length, and of ten thousand in breadth.

10 Eyi bɛyɛ kyɛfa kronkron ama asɔfo no. Ɛbɛyɛ anammɔn mpem aduasa ason ne ahannum ne tenten mu wɔ atifi fam, na ayɛ anammɔn mpem dunum wɔ atɔe fam. Ɛbɛyɛ anammɔn mpem dunum wɔ apuei fam, na anafo fam nso ɛbɛyɛ anammɔn mpem aduasa ason ne ahannum. Ne mfimfini bɛyɛ Awurade kronkronbea.

And for them, [even] for the priests, shall be [this] holy oblation; toward the north five and twenty thousand [in length], and toward the west ten thousand in breadth, and toward the east ten thousand in breadth, and toward the south five and twenty thousand in length: and the sanctuary of the LORD shall be in the midst thereof.

11 Eyi bɛyɛ Sadokfo asɔfo a wɔayɛ wɔn kronkron no de, wɔn a wodii me nokware som me na wɔannan amfi me nkyɛn sɛnea Lewifo yɛe, bere a Israelfo dan fii me nkyɛn no.

[It shall be] for the priests that are sanctified of the sons of Zadok; which have kept my charge, which went not astray when the children of Israel went astray, as the Levites went astray.

12 Ɛbɛyɛ akyɛde sononko a efi asase no kyɛfa a ɛyɛ kronkron no mu ama wɔn, kyɛfa kronkron mu kronkron a ɛne Lewifo asase no bɔ hye.

And [this] oblation of the land that is offered shall be unto them a thing most holy by the border of the Levites.

13 “Asɔfo no asase nkyɛn mu no, Lewifo no benya kyɛfa a ne tenten yɛ anammɔn mpem aduasa ason ne ahannum, na ne trɛw yɛ anammɔn mpem dunum. Ne tenten nyinaa bɛyɛ anammɔn mpem aduasa ason ne ahannum, na ne trɛw nyinaa nso asi anammɔn mpem dunum.

And over against the border of the priests the Levites [shall have] five and twenty thousand in length, and ten thousand in breadth: all the length [shall be] five and twenty thousand, and the breadth ten thousand.

14 Ɛnsɛ sɛ wɔtɔn anaasɛ wɔde mu fa biara sesa biribi. Asase no mu nea ɛyɛ papa ni na ɛnsɛ sɛ ɛkɔ obi foforo nsam, efisɛ ɛyɛ kronkron ma Awurade.

And they shall not sell of it, neither exchange, nor alienate the firstfruits of the land: for [it is] holy unto the LORD.

15 “Asase a aka a ne trɛw yɛ anammɔn mpem ason ne ahannum na ne tenten nso yɛ anammɔn mpem aduasa ason ne ahannum no bɛda hɔ ama kuropɔn no mufo. Wobesisi adan wɔ so na wɔde bi nso ayɛ mmoa adidibea. Kuropɔn no bɛda ne mfimfini

And the five thousand, that are left in the breadth over against the five and twenty thousand, shall be a profane [place] for the city, for dwelling, and for suburbs: and the city shall be in the midst thereof.

16 na ne kɛse bɛyɛ anammɔn mpem asia ahanson aduonum wɔ atifi fam, anafo fam, apuei fam ne atɔe fam.

And these [shall be] the measures thereof; the north side four thousand and five hundred, and the south side four thousand and five hundred, and on the east side four thousand and five hundred, and the west side four thousand and five hundred.

And the residue in length over against the oblation of the holy [portion shall be] ten thousand eastward, and ten thousand westward: and it shall be over against the oblation of the holy [portion; ] and the increase thereof shall be for food unto them that serve the city.

19 Kuropɔn no mu adwumayɛfo a wɔyɛ asase no so kua no bɛyɛ wɔn a wofi Israel mmusuakuw nyinaa no mu.

And they that serve the city shall serve it out of all the tribes of Israel.

20 Asase no nyinaa bɛyɛ ahinanan a ne fa biara susuw anammɔn mpem aduasa ason ne ahannum. Wubeyi kyɛfa kronkron no ne kuropɔn no asase asi nkyɛn sɛ akyɛde sononko.

All the oblation [shall be] five and twenty thousand by five and twenty thousand: ye shall offer the holy oblation foursquare, with the possession of the city.

21 “Asase a aka a ɛdeda kyɛfa kronkron ne kuropɔn no asase ho no bɛyɛ ɔhene no dea. Efi apuei fam a esusuw anammɔn mpem aduasa ason ne ahannum no, asase no bɛtrɛw akosi apuei fam hye so, na atɔe fam nso, ɛbɛtrɛw akosi atɔe fam hye so. Nsase abien a ɛne mmusuakuw asase no sa so no bɛyɛ ɔhene no dea, na kyɛfa kronkron a asɔredan no kronkronbea ka ho no bɛwɔ wɔn mfimfini.

And the residue [shall be] for the prince, on the one side and on the other of the holy oblation, and of the possession of the city, over against the five and twenty thousand of the oblation toward the east border, and westward over against the five and twenty thousand toward the west border, over against the portions for the prince: and it shall be the holy oblation; and the sanctuary of the house [shall be] in the midst thereof.

22 Ɛno nti Lewifo no asase ne kuropɔn no asase bɛda ɔhene asase no mfimfini. Ɔhene no asase no bɛda Yuda ne Benyamin ahye no ntam.

Moreover from the possession of the Levites, and from the possession of the city, [being] in the midst [of that] which is the prince’s, between the border of Judah and the border of Benjamin, shall be for the prince.

23 “Mmusuakuw a aka no, “Benyamin benya kyɛfa baako; ebefi apuei fam akɔ atɔe fam.

As for the rest of the tribes, from the east side unto the west side, Benjamin [shall have] a [portion].

And by the border of Benjamin, from the east side unto the west side, Simeon [shall have] a [portion].

28 Gad kyɛfa no hye a ɛda anafo fam no bɛkɔ anafo fam afi Tamar akɔ Meriba Kades nsuwansuwa ho, ɛbɛfa Misraim asuwa akosi Po Kɛse no.

And by the border of Gad, at the south side southward, the border shall be even from Tamar [unto] the waters of strife [in] Kadesh, [and] to the river toward the great sea.

29 “Eyi ne asase a wobɛkyekyɛ ama Israel mmusuakuw no sɛ agyapade, na eyinom bɛyɛ wɔn kyɛfa,” Otumfo Awurade asɛm ni.

This [is] the land which ye shall divide by lot unto the tribes of Israel for inheritance, and these [are] their portions, saith the Lord GOD.

30 “Eyinom ne apon a wɔbɛfa mu apue afi kuropɔn no mu: “Efi ase wɔ atifi fam fasu a ne tenten yɛ anammɔn mpem asia ahanson ne aduonum no,

And these [are] the goings out of the city on the north side, four thousand and five hundred measures.

31 wɔde Israel mmusuakuw dumien no din bɛtoto kuropɔn apon no. Apon abiɛsa a ɛwɔ atifi fam no bɛyɛ: Ruben pon, Yuda pon ne Lewi pon.

And the gates of the city [shall be] after the names of the tribes of Israel: three gates northward; one gate of Reuben, one gate of Judah, one gate of Levi.

At the west side four thousand and five hundred, [with] their three gates; one gate of Gad, one gate of Asher, one gate of Naphtali.

35 “Ɔkwan a etwa kuropɔn no nyinaa ho hyia no tenten yɛ anammɔn mpem aduonu ason. “Na efi saa da no, wɔbɛfrɛ kuropɔn no se, ‘Awurade Wɔ Hɔ.’”

[It was] round about eighteen thousand [measures: ] and the name of the city from [that] day [shall be], The LORD [is] there.
