Joshua 18
1 Israel ca rhoek loh rhaengpuei la Shiloh ah boeih tingtun uh. Te ah te tingtunnah dap te a khueh uh tih amamih mikhmuh ah khohmuen te a khoem.
And all the meeting of the children of Israel came together at Shiloh and put up the Tent of meeting there: and the land was crushed before them.
2 Tedae Israel ca rhoek khuikah koca parhih loh amamih kah rho a dang mueh la om pueng.
But there were still seven tribes among the children of Israel who had not taken up their heritage.
3 Te dongah Israel ca rhoek taengah Joshua loh, “Na pa rhoek kah BOEIPA Pathen loh nangmih taengah m'paek khohmuen te dang ham neh pang ham la mevaeng due lae na tiing uh eh.
Then Joshua said to the children of Israel, Why are you so slow to go in and take up your heritage in the land which the Lord, the God of your fathers, has given you?
4 Namamih ham te koca khuikah hlang pathum ah tuek uh lamtah amih te ka tueih eh. Te vaengah thoo uh saeh lamtah khohmuen te hip saeh. Te phoeiah a kawng te amamih kah rho tarhing la daek uh saeh lamtah kai taengla ha kun uh saeh.
Take from among you three men from every tribe; and I will send them to go through the land and make a record of it for distribution as their heritage; then let them come back to me.
5 Khoyo te parhih la boe uh lamtah tuithim kah amah khorhi ah Judah loh om saeh. Tlangpuei kah amah khorhi ah Joseph imko om van saeh.
And let them make division of it into seven parts: let Judah keep inside his limit on the south, and let the children of Joseph keep inside their limit on the north.
6 Te phoeiah khohmuen kawng nangmih loh khoyo parhih la na daek uh te ka taengla hang kuen uh. Te vaengah mamih kah BOEIPA Pathen mikhmuh ah hmulung te nangmih ham ka thuinuet eh.
And you are to have the land marked out in seven parts, and come back to me with the record; and I will make the distribution for you here by the decision of the Lord our God.
7 Tedae Levi ham khoyo tah nangmih lakli ah nuet boel saeh. BOEIPA khosoihbi te anih kah rho la om coeng. Gad, Reuben neh Manasseh koca hlangvang long tah BOEIPA kah sal Moses loh amih taengah a paek Jordan khocuk kah rhalvangan ah ni amamih kah rho te a dang uh coeng,” a ti nah.
For the Levites have no part among you; to be the Lord's priests is their heritage; and Gad and Reuben and the half-tribe of Manasseh have had their heritage on the east side of Jordan, given to them by Moses, the servant of the Lord.
8 Te dongah hlang rhoek te thoo uh tih a caeh uh vaengah khohmuen kawng daek ham aka cet rhoek te Joshua loh a uen tih, “Cet uh lamtah khohmuen te hip uh laeh. A kawng te daek uh lamtah kai taengla ham mael puei uh. Te vaengah Shiloh kah BOEIPA mikhmuh ah he hmulung te nangmih ham ka yuek eh?,” a ti nah.
So the men got up and went; and Joshua gave orders to those who went, to make a record of the land, saying, Go up and down through the land, and make a record of it and come back here to me, and I will make the distribution for you here by the decision of the Lord in Shiloh.
9 Te vaengah hlang rhoek te cet uh tih kho takuem la pawk uh. Khopuei rhoek te cabu dongah khoyo parhih la a daek uh tih Shiloh rhaehhmuen kah Joshua taengla mael uh.
So the men went, travelling through the land, and made a record of it by towns in seven parts in a book, and came back to Joshua to the tent-circle at Shiloh.
10 Te dongah Shiloh kah BOEIPA mikhmuh ah amih ham hmulung te Joshua loh a yueh pah tih amamih boelnah bangla Israel ca rhoek ham khohmuen te Joshua loh pahoi a tael pah.
And Joshua made the distribution for them in Shiloh by the decision of the Lord, marking out the land for the children of Israel by their divisions.
11 Benjamin ca rhoek te amah koca kah hmulung a naan vaengah amah huiko tarhing ah amih kah khorhi te hmulung loh Judah ca rhoek neh Joseph ca rhoek laklo ah a nan.
And the first heritage came out for the tribe of Benjamin by their families: and the limit of their heritage went between the children of Judah and the children of Joseph.
12 Amih kah khorhi te Jordan kah tlangpuei kaep ah om. Tlangpuei ah Jerikho tlanghlaep ah khorhi te luei tih khotlak tlang la yoeng. Te phoeiah a hmoi te cet cet tih Bethaven khosoek la pawk.
And their limit on the north was from the Jordan, and the line goes up to the side of Jericho on the north and through the hill-country to the west, ending at the waste land of Beth-aven.
13 Te lamkah khorhi te Luz la, Luz tlanghlaep tuithim la, Bethel la kat tih tlang ah Atarothaddar khorhi, tuithim ah Bethhoron yung la suntla thuk.
And from there the line goes south to Luz, to the side of Luz (which is Beth-el), then down to Ataroth-addar, by the mountain to the south of Beth-horon the lower.
14 Te phoeiah khorhi aka hooi te tlang lamkah tuithim tuipuei kil a hil tih tuithim kah Bethhoron imdan la, cet, cet bal tih a hmoi loh tuipuei kil, Judah ca rhoek kah khopuei Kiriathbaal Kiriathjearim la pawk.
And the limit is marked as coming round to the south on the west side from the mountain which is south of Beth-horon, and ending at Kiriath-baal (which is Kiriath-jearim), a town of the children of Judah: this is the west part.
15 Tuithim saa ah Kiriathjearim ngoe lamkah te tuipuei rhi ah a khuen tih Nephtoah tuisih tui ah pawk.
And the south part is from the farthest point of Kiriath-jearim, and the line goes out to the west to the fountain of the waters of Nephtoah:
16 Te phoeiah khorhi kolrhawk rhaldan ah tlang yung la, Rapha kol ah tlangpuei la suntla tih tuithim ah Jebusi tlanghlaep kolrhawk la a rhum phoeiah Enrogel la pawk.
And the line goes down to the farthest part of the mountain facing the valley of the son of Hinnom, which is on the north of the valley of Rephaim: from there it goes down to the valley of Hinnom, to the side of the Jebusite on the south as far as En-rogel;
17 Te phoeiah tlangpuei la hooi uh tih Enshemesh te a paan phoeiah Adummim kham dan kah Geliloth la pawk tih Reuben koca rhoek kah Bohan lungnu la suntla thuk.
And it goes to En-shemesh and on to Geliloth, opposite the way up to Adummim, and it goes down to the stone of Bohan, the son of Reuben;
18 Tlangpuei ah kolken rhaldan kah tlanghlaep la cet bal tih kolken la pawk.
And it goes on to the side facing the Arabah to the north, and down to the Arabah;
19 Te phoeiah khorhi te tlangpuei ah Bethhoglah tlanghlaep la kat. Khorhi kah a hmoi a hmoi tah tlangpuei kah lungkaeh tuili longken ah khaw, tuithim rhi ah khaw Jordan tuikung ah om phai.
And on to the north side of Beth-hoglah, ending at the north inlet of the Salt Sea at the south end of Jordan; this is their limit on the south.
20 Jordan loh khothoeng ben ah Benjamin koca rhoek kah rho te amah cako ham rhilung neh a suem pah.
And the limit of the east part is the Jordan. This is the heritage of the children of Benjamin, marked out for their families by these limits on all sides.
21 Te dongah Benjamin ca rhoek kah amah cako ah, Jerikho, Bethhoglah, Emekkeziz,
