Joshua 13
1 Many years had passed by, and Joshua had grown old. The Lord spoke to him, saying, “You're now an old man, but there's still a great deal of land still to be taken.
Tango Jozue akomaki mobange mpe mibu ya bomoi na ye epusanaki makasi, Yawe alobaki na ye: « Okomi mpe mobange makasi, mibu ya bomoi na yo esili kopusana mingi. Kasi mokili oyo bosengeli kobotola ezali nanu monene.
2 This is the remaining land: the territory of all the Philistines and all the Geshurites,
Tala mokili oyo etikali: Bituka nyonso ya bato ya Filisitia mpe ya bato ya Geshuri:
3 from the Shihur River on the border with Egypt north to the border of Ekron—all of which is counted as Canaanite but comes under the five Philistine lords of Gaza, Ashdod, Ashkelon, Gath, and Ekron. In addition there's the land of the Avvites
etuka oyo batangaka na molongo ya mikili ya Kanana; wuta na ebale ya Shiyori, oyo etalana na Ejipito kino na ngambo ya nor, na etuka ya Ekroni. Kuna, ezalaki na bakambi mitano ya bato ya Filisitia: mokambi ya Gaza, ya Asidodi, ya Ashikeloni, ya Gati mpe ya Ekroni; etuka ya bato ya Avi;
4 in the south, all the land of the Canaanites, and Mearah that belongs to the Sidonians, all the way to Aphek on the border with the Amorites,
mpe wuta na ngambo ya sude, mokili mobimba ya bato ya Kanana mpe Meara oyo ezalaki mokili ya bato ya Sidoni kino na Afeki, kino na bandelo ya bato ya Amori;
5 as well as the land of the Gebalites and the Lebanon area from the town of Baalgad to the slopes of Mount Hermon to Lebo-hamath,
etuka ya bato ya Gebali; mpe ngambo nyonso ya este ya Libani, wuta na Bala-Gadi, na ebandeli ya ngomba Erimoni kino na Lebo-Amati.
6 and the those who live in the hill country from Lebanon to Misrephoth Maim, including all the land of the Sidonians. I myself will drive them out ahead of the Israelites. Just allocate the land to Israel for them to own, as I have commanded you.
Mpo na bavandi nyonso ya etuka ya bangomba, wuta na Libani kino na Misirefoti-Mayimi, bato nyonso ya Sidoni, nakobengana bango Ngai moko liboso ya Isalaele. Sala keba ete opesa mokili yango lokola libula epai ya Isalaele, ndenge kaka natindaki yo;
7 So divide this land among the nine tribes and the half-tribe of Manasseh for them to own.”
mpe kabola yango lokola libula kati na mabota libwa mpe ndambo ya libota ya Manase. »
8 The other half of the tribe of Manasseh, and the tribes of Reuben and Gad, had already received their land grant on the east side of the Jordan, as allotted to them by Moses, the servant of the Lord.
Bato ya ndambo mosusu ya libota ya Manase, elongo na bato ya libota ya Ribeni mpe ya Gadi bazwaki libula oyo Moyize, mowumbu na Yawe, apesaki bango na ngambo ya este ya Yordani.
9 It stretched from Aroer on the edge of the Arnon valley, from the town in the middle of the valley, and all the plateau of Medeba, up to Dibon;
Ezalaki wuta na Aroeri, pene ya moluka ya Arinoni, wuta na engumba oyo ezali na kati-kati ya lubwaku, bakisa ngomba mobimba Medeba kino na Diboni,
10 and all the towns that belonged to Sihon, king of the Amorites, who ruled in Heshbon, up to the border with the Ammonites.
mpe bingumba nyonso ya Sikoni, mokonzi ya bato ya Amori, oyo azalaki kokonza na Eshiboni kino na bandelo ya bato ya Amoni.
11 In addition it included Gilead, the land of the Geshurites and Maacathites, all of Mount Hermon, and all of Bashan as far as Salecah,
Galadi mpe ezalaki na kati, elongo na etuka ya bato ya Geshuri mpe ya Maakati, ngomba Erimoni nyonso mpe Bashani mobimba kino na Salika.
12 as well as all the land of the kingdom of Og of Bashan, who had ruled in Ashtaroth and Edrei. He was one of the last of the Rephaites. Moses had defeated them and driven them out.
Bashani mobimba, mokili ya Ogi, lokola moko kati na bato ya suka ya Refayimi oyo azalaki kokonza na Ashitaroti mpe na Edreyi, ezalaki mpe kati na libula na bango. Moyize alongaki bango mpe abotolaki bango mokili na bango.
13 But the Israelites had not driven out the Geshurites or the Maacathites, who still live among them to this very day.
Kasi bana ya Isalaele babenganaki te bato ya Geshuri mpe ya Maakati; yango wana bakobaki kovanda elongo na bana ya Isalaele kino na mokolo ya lelo.
14 Moses did not allocate any land for the Levites to own. Instead they were allotted the offerings made by fire to the Lord, the God of Israel, as the Lord had promised them.
Nzokande, Moyize apesaki libula te epai ya libota ya Levi, pamba te libula na bango ezali makabo bazikisa na moto mpo na Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele, ndenge Yawe alakaki bango.
15 This was the land that Moses allotted to the tribe of Reuben, by families:
Tala eteni ya mabele oyo Moyize apesaki na libota ya Ribeni, kolanda bituka na bango:
16 Their territory stretched from Aroer on the edge of the Arnon valley, from the town in the middle of the valley, and all the plateau of Medeba;
Mabele oyo ezwamaki wuta na Aroeri, pene ya moluka ya Arinoni, wuta na engumba oyo ezali na kati-kati ya lubwaku, bakisa ngomba Medeba mobimba,
17 Heshbon and all associated towns on the plateau—Dibon, Bamoth Baal, Beth Baal Meon,
kino na Eshiboni mpe bingumba na yango nyonso oyo ezalaka na likolo ya ngomba, bakisa Diboni, Bamoti-Bala, Beti-Bala-Meoni,
18 Jahaz, Kedemoth, Mephaath,

Kiriatayimi, Sibima, Tsereti-Shaari na ngomba moke ya lubwaku,
20 Beth-peor, the slopes of Pisgah, Beth-jeshimoth—
Beti-Peori, mipanzi ya ngomba Pisiga mpe Beti-Yeshimoti:
21 all the towns of the plateau and all the kingdom of Sihon, the Amorite king, who ruled in Heshbon. He was defeated by Moses, as well as the Midianite leaders Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur, and Reba, princes who lived in the kingdom and who were allied to Sihon.
bingumba nyonso ya ngomba mpe mokili mobimba ya Sikoni, mokonzi ya bato ya Amori oyo azalaki kokonza na Eshiboni. Moyize alongaki ye elongo na bakambi ya Madiani: Evi, Rekemi, Tsuri, Wuri mpe Reba, oyo bazalaki kosalela Sikoni mpe kovanda na mokili na ye.
22 At the same time the Israelites killed Balaam, son of Beor, the fortune-teller, along with the others who were slaughtered.
Kati na bato oyo babomaki na bitumba, bana ya Isalaele babomaki mpe na mopanga Balami, mwana mobali ya Beori, moto oyo asololaka na milimo ya bakufi.
23 The Jordan was the boundary for the tribe of Reuben. This was the land, the towns and the villages, allotted to the tribe of Reuben, by families.
Mondelo ya bato ya libota ya Ribeni ezalaki nde Yordani. Bingumba oyo mpe bamboka na yango ya mike-mike nde ezalaki libula oyo bapesaki na bato ya libota ya Ribeni, kolanda bituka na bango.
24 This was the land that Moses allotted to the tribe of Gad, by families:
Tala eteni ya mabele oyo Moyize apesaki na libota ya Gadi, kolanda bituka na bango:
25 Their territory was Jazer, all the towns of Gilead, and half of the land of the Ammonites up to Aroer, near Rabbah;
Etuka ya Yaezeri, bingumba nyonso ya Galadi, mpe ndambo ya mokili ya bato ya Amoni kino na Aroeri oyo etalana na Raba;
26 stretching from Heshbon to Ramath-mizpeh and Betonim, and from Mahanaim to the Debir region.
mpe wuta na Eshiboni kino na Ramati-Mitsipe mpe Betonimi, wuta na Maanayimi kino na mondelo ya Debiri;
27 In the Jordan valley lay Beth-haram, Beth-nimrah, Succoth, and Zaphon, the rest of the kingdom of Sihon, king of Heshbon. The boundary ran along the Jordan up to the bottom end of the sea of Kinnereth and then ran east.
mpe na lubwaku, na Beti-Arami, na Beti-Nimira, na Sukoti, na Tsafoni, mpe na mokili ya Sikoni, mokonzi na Eshiboni, oyo etikalaki elongo na Yordani mpe bazingazinga na yango kino na suka ya Ebale monene ya Kinereti, na ngambo ya este ya Yordani.
28 This was the land, the towns and the villages, allotted to the tribe of Gad, by families.
Bingumba oyo mpe bamboka na yango ya mike-mike nde ezalaki libula oyo bapesaki na bato ya libota ya Gadi, kolanda bituka na bango.
29 This was the land that Moses allotted to the half-tribe of Manasseh, that is half of the tribe of the descendants of Manasseh, by families:
Tala eteni ya mabele oyo Moyize apesaki na ndambo ya libota ya Manase, kolanda bituka na bango:
30 Their territory stretched from Manahaim through the whole of Bashan, all the kingdom of Og, and all the towns of Jair in Bashan—sixty in all.
Mabele oyo ezwamaki wuta na Maanayimi, bakisa mokili mobimba ya Bashani, mokili ya Ogi, mokonzi ya Bashani, mpe bamboka mike-mike nyonso ya Yairi oyo ezalaka na Bashani, bingumba tuku motoba,
31 Also included was Gilead, and Ashtaroth and Edrei, the towns of king Og in Bashan. This was the land allotted to the descendants of Machir, son of Manasseh, for half of them, by families.
ndambo ya mokili ya Galadi; Ashitaroti mpe Edreyi, bingumba ya bokonzi ya Ogi kati na Bashani; ezalaki mpo na bakitani ya Makiri, mwana mobali, ya Manase mpo na ndambo ya bakitani ya Makiri, kolanda bituka na bango.
32 These were the allocations that Moses made when he was in the plains of Moab, on the other side of the Jordan, east of Jericho.
Yango nde libula oyo Moyize apesaki tango azalaki na etando ya Moabi, na ngambo ya Yordani, na ngambo ya este ya Jeriko.
33 However, Moses did not allot any land to the Levites, for the Lord, the God of Israel, had promised them that he would be their allocation.
Kasi Moyize apesaki libula te epai ya libota ya Levi, pamba te Ye moko Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele, nde azali libula na bango, ndenge alakaki bango.
