Joshua 17

1 And the lot came to the tribe of Manasseh (for he was the firstborn of Joseph), to Machir, the firstborn of Manasseh, the father of Gilead, for he was a man of war, and he had Gilead and Bashan.

Manase te premye pitit gason Jozèf. Se konsa yon pòsyon nan tè a vin pou moun fanmi Manase yo. Maki, papa Galarad, te premye pitit gason Manase. Se te yon vanyan sòlda. Se konsa yo te ba li peyi Galarad ak peyi Bazan.

2 There was also [a portion] for the rest of the children of Manasseh according to their families: for the children of Abiezer, and for the children of Helek, and for the children of Asriel, and for the children of Shechem, and for the children of Hepher, and for the children of Shemida: these are the children of Manasseh, the son of Joseph, the males, according to their families.

Apre sa, yo bay fanmi lòt pitit Manase yo yon pòsyon nan tè a, dapre kantite moun yo te genyen: yon pòsyon pou pitit Abyezè yo, yon pòsyon pou pitit Elèk yo, yon pòsyon pou pitit Asriyèl yo, yon pòsyon pou pitit Sichèm yo, yon pòsyon pou pitit Efè yo, yon lòt pòsyon pou pitit Chemida yo. Se moun sa yo ki te branch fanmi pitit gason Manase, pitit Jozèf la.

3 And Zelophehad, the son of Hepher, the son of Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh, had no sons, but daughters; and these are the names of his daughters: Mahlah, and Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah.

Nan branch fanmi Manase a, te gen yon nonm yo te rele Zelochad. Se te pitit gason Efè. Efè sa a te pitit Galarad, Galarad te pitit Maki, Maki te pitit Manase. Zelochad pa t' gen pitit gason menm. Se fi ase li te fè. Men ki jan yo te rele: Mala, Noa, Ogla, Milka ak Tiza.

4 And they came near before Eleazar the priest, and before Joshua the son of Nun, and before the princes, saying, Jehovah commanded Moses to give us an inheritance among our brethren. And he gave them according to the commandment of Jehovah an inheritance among the brethren of their father.

Yo vin jwenn Eleaza, prèt la, Jozye, pitit gason Noun lan, ak tout chèf yo. Yo di yo konsa: -Seyè a te bay Moyiz lòd pou l' te ban nou yon pòsyon nan tè a, tankou tout moun nan fanmi an. Se konsa, jan Seyè a te bay lòd la, yo ba yo yon pòsyon pou yo tankou tout moun nan fanmi papa yo.

5 And there fell ten portions to Manasseh, besides the land of Gilead and Bashan, which are beyond the Jordan.

Konsa yo te rive bay moun Manase yo dis pòsyon tè, san konte peyi Galarad ak peyi Bazan ki lòt bò larivyè Jouden an,

6 For the daughters of Manasseh received an inheritance among his sons; and the rest of Manasseh's sons had the land of Gilead.

paske pitit fi Manase yo te resevwa yon pòsyon apa pou yo tankou pitit gason l' yo. Men, yo te bay peyi Galarad la pou lòt pitit Manase yo.

7 And the territory of Manasseh was from Asher to Micmethath, which is before Shechem, and the border went on the right hand toward the inhabitants of En-Tappuah.

Men limit tè yo te bay moun Manase yo. Li konmanse bò tè moun Asè yo, li rive lavil Mikmetat, anfas Sichèm, sou bò solèy leve. Li vire desann bò sid nan direksyon Jamen nan peyi moun Antapwak yo.

8 Manasseh had the land of Tappuah; but Tappuah on the border of Manasseh belonged to the children of Ephraim.

Tout peyi Tapwak la te pou moun Manase yo. Men, lavil Tapwak ki sou fwontyè a te pou moun Efrayim yo.

9 And the border descended to the torrent Kanah, south of the torrent. These cities were Ephraim's among the cities of Manasseh. And the territory of Manasseh was on the north side of the torrent, and ended at the sea.

Limit la desann nan ravin Kana a, li pase sou bò nò ravin lan epi l' al bout nan lanmè. Tout lavil ki te sou bò sid ravin lan, atout yo te nan mitan tè moun Manase yo, se pou moun Efrayim yo yo te ye.

10 Southward it was Ephraim's, and northward it was Manasseh's, and the sea was his border. And they touched upon Asher on the north, and upon Issachar on the east.

Moun Efrayim yo te anba sou bò sid, moun Manase yo te anwo sou bò nò, avèk lanmè Mediterane a sou bò solèy kouche. Pòsyon tè yo a te rive sou lizyè tè moun Asè yo sou bò nò ak lizyè tè moun Isaka yo sou bò lès.

11 And Manasseh had in Issachar and in Asher, Beth-shean and its dependent villages, and Ibleam and its dependent villages, and the inhabitants of Dor and its dependent villages, and the inhabitants of En-Dor and its dependent villages, and the inhabitants of Taanach and its dependent villages, and the inhabitants of Megiddo and its dependent villages, the three hilly regions.

Nan mitan pòsyon tè ki te vin pou moun Isaka yo ak moun Asè yo, yo te bay moun Manase yo lavil Bèt-Chean ak tout ti bouk ki sou lòd li yo, moun ki rete lavil Ibleyam, lavil Dò ki bò lanmè a, lavil Andò, lavil Tanak, lavil Megido ak tout ti bouk ki te sou lòd yo.

12 But the children of Manasseh could not dispossess [the inhabitants of] those cities; and the Canaanites would dwell in that land.

Men, moun fanmi Manase yo pa t' kapab mete moun ki t'ap viv nan lavil sa yo deyò. Se konsa moun Kanaran yo te rive rete nan peyi a.

13 And it came to pass when the children of Israel were become strong, that they made the Canaanites tributary; but they did not utterly dispossess them.

Men, lè moun Izrayèl yo vin pi fò, yo pa mete yo deyò nan peyi a, yo sèlman fòse yo fè kòve pou yo.

14 And the children of Joseph spoke to Joshua, saying, Why hast thou given me as inheritance one lot and one portion, seeing I am a great people, forasmuch as Jehovah has blessed me hitherto?

Moun fanmi Jozèf yo di Jozye konsa: -Poukisa se yon sèl pòsyon ou ban nou nan tè a pou rele nou pa nou? Nou anpil wi. Seyè a pa manke beni nou.

15 And Joshua said unto them, If thou art a great people, then get thee up to the wood, and cut down for thyself there in the land of the Perizzites and of the giants, if the hill-country of Ephraim is too narrow for thee.

Jozye reponn yo: -Si nou anpil, si mòn nan peyi Efrayim yo pa ase pou nou, se pou n' moute nan gwo rakbwa ki nan peyi moun Ferezi yo ak moun refrayim yo, n'a koupe bwa fè plas pou nou.

16 And the children of Joseph said, The hill-country will not be enough for us; and all the Canaanites that dwell in the land of the valley have chariots of iron, those that are of Beth-shean and its dependent villages, and those that are in the valley of Jizreel.

Moun fanmi Jozèf yo di l' ankò: -Mòn lan pa kont pou nou. Lèfini, moun Kanaran ki rete nan plenn yo gen cha an fè pou fè lagè. Moun Kanaran ki rete Bèt Chean ak nan ti bouk ki sou lòd yo, ansanm ak sa ki rete nan plenn Jizreyèl yo gen menm kalite cha a tou.

17 And Joshua spoke to the house of Joseph, to Ephraim and to Manasseh, saying, Thou art a great people, and hast great power: thou shalt not have one lot only,

Jozye di moun Jozèf yo, ki vle di moun Efrayim yo ak moun Manase yo: -Nou anpil vre. Nou gen anpil fòs. Nou pa ka rete ak yon sèl pòsyon tè.

18 but the hill-country shall be thine, as it is a wood, thou shalt cut it down, and its outgoings shall be thine; for thou shalt dispossess the Canaanites, though they have iron chariots; for they are powerful.

Tout mòn yo ap pou nou. Malgre se yon gwo rakbwa yo ye. N'a koupe bwa yo, epi n'a pran tout zòn lan nèt pou nou. Pou moun Kanaran yo menm, atout nou wè yo gen cha ki fèt an fè, atout yo fò a, rive yon lè, n'a mete yo deyò.
