Joshua 18
1 Gbogbo ìjọ àwọn ọmọ Israẹli péjọ ní Ṣilo, wọ́n si kọ́ àgọ́ ìpàdé ní ibẹ̀. Gbogbo ilẹ̀ náà sì wà ní abẹ́ àkóso wọn,
The whole congregation of the children of Israel assembled themselves together at Shiloh, and set up the Tent of Meeting there. The land was subdued before them.
2 ṣùgbọ́n ó ku ẹ̀yà méje nínú àwọn ọmọ Israẹli tí kò tí ì gba ogún ìní wọn.
Seven tribes remained among the children of Israel, which had not yet divided their inheritance.
3 Báyìí ni Joṣua sọ fún àwọn ọmọ Israẹli, “Báwo ni ẹ̀yin yóò ṣe dúró pẹ́ tó, kí ẹ tó gba ilẹ̀ ìní tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run àwọn baba yín ti fi fún yín?
Joshua said to the children of Israel, "How long will you neglect to go in to possess the land, which Jehovah, the God of your fathers, has given you?
4 Ẹ yan àwọn ọkùnrin mẹ́ta nínú ẹ̀yà kọ̀ọ̀kan. Èmi yóò rán wọn jáde láti lọ bojú wo ilẹ̀ náà káàkiri, wọn yóò sì ṣe àpèjúwe rẹ̀, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìní ẹni kọ̀ọ̀kan. Nígbà náà ni wọn yóò padà tọ̀ mí wá.
Appoint for you three men of each tribe. I will send them, and they shall arise, walk through the land, and describe it according to their inheritance; and they shall come to me.
5 Ẹ̀yin yóò sì pín ilẹ̀ náà sí ọ̀nà méje kí Juda dúró sí ilẹ̀ rẹ̀ ni ìhà gúúsù àti ilé Josẹfu ní ilẹ̀ rẹ̀ ní ìhà àríwá.
They shall divide it into seven portions. Judah shall live in his borders on the south, and the house of Joseph shall live in their borders on the north.
6 Lẹ́yìn ìgbà tí ẹ bá kọ àpèjúwe ọ̀nà méjèèje ilẹ̀ náà, ẹ mú wọn wá sí ọ̀dọ̀ mi ní ibí, èmi ó sì ṣẹ́ kèké fún yín ní iwájú Olúwa Ọlọ́run wa.
You shall survey the land into seven parts, and bring the description here to me; and I will cast lots for you here before Jehovah our God.
7 Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ọmọ Lefi kò ní ìpín ní àárín yín, nítorí iṣẹ́ àlùfáà. Olúwa ni ìní wọ́n. Gadi, Reubeni àti ìdajì ẹ̀yà Manase, ti gba ìní wọn ní ìhà ìlà-oòrùn Jordani. Mose ìránṣẹ́ Olúwa ti fi fún wọn.”
For the Levites have no portion among you; for the priesthood of Jehovah is their inheritance. Gad, Reuben, and the half-tribe of Manasseh have received their inheritance beyond the Jordan eastward, which Moses the servant of Jehovah gave them."
8 Bí àwọn ọkùnrin náà ti bẹ̀rẹ̀ ìrìnàjò wọn láti fojú díwọ̀n ilẹ̀ náà, Joṣua pàṣẹ fún wọn pé, “Ẹ lọ kí ẹ sì fojú díwọ̀n ilẹ̀ náà káàkiri, kí ẹ sì kọ àpèjúwe rẹ̀. Lẹ́yìn náà kí ẹ padà tọ̀ mí wá, kí èmi kí ò lè ṣẹ́ kèké fún yin ní ibí ní Ṣilo ní iwájú Olúwa.”
The men arose and went. Joshua commanded those who went to survey the land, saying, "Go walk through the land, survey it, and come again to me. I will cast lots for you here before Jehovah in Shiloh."
9 Báyìí ni àwọn ọkùnrin náà lọ, wọ́n sì la ilẹ̀ náà já. Wọ́n sì kọ àpèjúwe rẹ̀ sí orí ìwé kíká ní ìlú, ní ọ̀nà méje, wọ́n sì padà tọ Joṣua lọ ní ibùdó ní Ṣilo.
The men went and passed through the land, and surveyed it by cities into seven portions on a scroll. They came to Joshua to the camp at Shiloh.
10 Joṣua sì ṣẹ́ gègé fún wọn ní Ṣilo ní iwájú Olúwa, Joṣua sì pín ilẹ̀ náà fún àwọn Israẹli gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìpín ẹ̀yà wọn ní ibẹ̀.
Joshua cast lots for them in Shiloh before Jehovah. There Joshua divided the land to the children of Israel according to their divisions.
11 Ìbò náà sì wá sórí ẹ̀yà Benjamini, ní agbo ilé, agbo ilé. Ilẹ̀ ìpín wọn sì wà láàrín ti ẹ̀yà Juda àti Josẹfu.
The lot of the tribe of the descendants of Benjamin came up according to their families. The border of their lot went out between the descendants of Judah and the descendants of Joseph.
12 Ní ìhà àríwá ààlà wọn bẹ̀rẹ̀ ní Jordani, ó kọjá lọ sí gẹ̀rẹ́gẹ̀rẹ́ Jeriko ní ìhà àríwá, ó sì forí lé ìwọ̀-oòrùn sí ìlú òkè, jáde sí aginjù Beti-Afeni.
Their border on the north quarter was from the Jordan. The border went up to the side of Jericho on the north, and went up through the hill country westward. It ended at the wilderness of Beth Aven.
13 Láti ibẹ̀ ààlà náà tún kọjá lọ sí ìhà gúúsù ní ọ̀nà Lusi (tí í ṣe Beteli) ó sì dé Atarotu-Addari, ní orí òkè tí ó wà ní gúúsù Beti-Horoni.
The border passed along from there to Luz, to the side of Luz (that is, Bethel), southward. The border went down to Ataroth Addar, by the mountain that lies on the south of Lower Beth Horon.
14 Láti òkè tí ó kọjú sí Beti-Horoni ní gúúsù ààlà náà yà sí gúúsù ní ìhà ìwọ̀-oòrùn, ó sì jáde sí Kiriati-Baali (tí í ṣe Kiriati-Jearimu), ìlú àwọn ènìyàn Juda. Èyí ni ìhà ìwọ̀-oòrùn.
The border extended, and turned around on the west quarter southward, from the mountain that lies before Beth Horon southward; and ended at Kiriath Baal (that is, Kiriath Jearim), a city of the descendants of Judah. This was the west quarter.
15 Ìhà gúúsù bẹ̀rẹ̀ ní ìpẹ̀kun Kiriati-Jearimu ní ìwọ̀-oòrùn, ààlà náà wà ní ibi ìsun omi Nefitoa.
The south quarter was from the farthest part of Kiriath Jearim. The border went out westward, and went out to the spring of the waters of Nephtoah.
16 Ààlà náà lọ sí ìsàlẹ̀ ẹsẹ̀ òkè tí ó kọjú sí àfonífojì Beni-Hinnomu, àríwá àfonífojì Refaimu. O sì sọ̀kalẹ̀ lọ sí àfonífojì Hinnomu sí apá gúúsù gẹ̀rẹ́gẹ̀rẹ́ òkè ìlú Jebusi, ó sì lọ bẹ́ẹ̀ títí dé En-Rogeli.
The border went down to the farthest part of the mountain that lies before the Valley of Ben Hinnom, which is in the Valley of Rephaim northward. It went down to the Valley of Hinnom, to the slope of the Jebusites southward, and went down to En Rogel.
17 Nígbà náà ni ó yípo sí ìhà àríwá, ó sì lọ sí Ẹni-Ṣemeṣi, ó tẹ̀síwájú dé Geliloti tí ó kọjú sí òkè Adummimu, ó sì sọ̀kalẹ̀ sí ibi Òkúta Bohani ọmọ Reubeni.
It extended northward, went out at En Shemesh, and went out to Geliloth, which is over against the ascent of Adummim. It went down to the Stone of Bohan the son of Reuben.
18 Ó tẹ̀síwájú títí dé gẹ̀rẹ́gẹ̀rẹ́ òkè Beti-Araba, ó sì sọ̀kalẹ̀ lọ sí aginjù.
And it passed on to the north to the shoulder of Beth Arabah, and went down to the Arabah.
19 Nígbà náà ni ó lọ sí gẹ̀rẹ́gẹ̀rẹ́ òkè Beti-Hogla, ó sì jáde ní àríwá etí bèbè Òkun Iyọ̀, ní ẹnu odò Jordani ní gúúsù. Èyí ni ààlà ti gúúsù.
The border passed along to the side of Beth Hoglah northward; and the border ended at the north bay of the Salt Sea, at the south end of the Jordan. This was the south border.
20 Odò Jordani sí jẹ́ ààlà ní ìhà ìlà-oòrùn. Ìwọ̀nyí ní àwọn ààlà ti ó sàmì sí ìní àwọn ìdílé Benjamini ní gbogbo àwọn àyíká wọn.
The Jordan was its border on the east quarter. This was the inheritance of the descendants of Benjamin, by the borders around it, according to their families.
21 Ẹ̀yà Benjamini ní agbo ilé, agbo ilé ni àwọn ìlú wọ̀nyí: Jeriko, Beti-Hogla, Emeki-Keṣiṣi,
Now the cities of the tribe of the descendants of Benjamin according to their families were Jericho, and Beth Hoglah, and Emek Keziz,
