50 According to the word of the LORD they gave him the city which he asked, [even] Timnath-serah in mount Ephraim: and he built the city, and dwelt in it.
Sur l’ordre de l’Eternel, ils lui donnèrent la ville qu’il avait demandée: Timnat-Sérah, dans la montagne d’Ephraïm. II restaura cette ville et il s’y établit.
51 These [are] the inheritances which Eleazar the priest, and Joshua the son of Nun, and the heads of the fathers of the tribes of the children of Israel, divided for an inheritance by lot in Shiloh before the LORD, at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation. So they made an end of dividing the country.
Telles sont les possessions que le prêtre Eléazar, Josué, fils de Noun, et les chefs de famille des tribus des enfants d’Israël répartirent, par la voie du sort, à Silo, en présence de l’éternel, à l’entrée de la Tente d’assignation: on acheva ainsi le partage du pays.
