Joshua 21

1 Then came near the ancestral heads of the Levites, unto Eleazar, the priest, and unto Joshua son of Nun, —and unto the ancestral heads of the tribes, of the sons of Israel;

Levi napa rhoek a lu rhoek te khosoih Eleazar, Nun Capa Joshua neh Israel ca koca kah a napa rhoek khuikah a lu rhoek taengla thoeih uh.

2 and spake unto them in Shiloh in the land of Canaan, saying: Yahweh himself, commanded, by the hand of Moses, that there should be given unto us cities to dwell in, —with their pasture-lands for our cattle.

Te vaengah Kanaan kho Shiloh ah amih te a voek uh tih, “Khosak thil ham khopuei rhoek neh ka rhamsa ham khocaak khaw kaimih taengah paek ham te BOEIPA loh Moses kut ah a uen coeng ta,” a ti uh.

3 So the sons of Israel gave unto the Levites, out of their own inheritance, at the bidding of Yahweh, —these cities, with their pasture-lands.

Te dongah Israel ca rhoek loh amamih kah rho khui lamkah te BOEIPA ol vanbangla khopuei neh a khocaak rhoek te Levi ham a suem pauh.

4 And, when the lot came out for the families of the Kohathites, then had the sons of Aaron the priest, from among the Levites—out of the tribe of Judah and out of the tribe of the Simeonites and out of the tribe of Benjamin—by lot, thirteen cities.

Kohathi kah a hui a ko ham hmulung a naan vaengah Levi khui lamkah khosoih Aaron ca rhoek ham te Judah koca khui lamkah khaw, Simeon koca khui lamkah khaw, Benjamin koca khui lamkah khaw khopuei hlai thum te hmulung neh a nan pah.

5 And, the sons of Kohath that remained, had—out of the families of the tribe of Ephraim and out of the tribe of Dan and out of the half tribe of Manasseh—by lot, ten cities.

Kohath koca aka coih rhoek ham te Ephraim koca cako khui lamkah, Dan koca khui lamkah, Manasseh koca hlangvang khui lamkah kho parha te hmulung neh a naan pah.

6 And, the sons of Gershon, had—out of families of the tribe of Issachar and out of the tribe of Asher and out of the tribe of Naphtali and out of the half tribe of Manasseh in Bashan—by lot, thirteen cities.

Gershon ca rhoek ham khaw Issakhar koca cako khui lamkah, Asher koca khui lamkah, Naphtali koca khui lamkah, Bashan ah Manasseh koca hlangvang khui lamkah khopuei hlai thum te hmulung neh a naan pah.

7 The sons of Merari, by their families, had—out of the tribe of Reuben and out of the tribe of Gad and out of the tribe of Zebulun, twelve cities.

Merari ca rhoek ham khaw a hui a ko tarhing ah Reuben koca khui lamkah, Gad koca khui lamkah Zebulun koca khui lamkah khopuei hlai nit te a suem pah

8 So the sons of Israel gave unto the Levites these cities, with their pasture lands, —as Yahweh commanded, by the hand of Moses, by lot.

Te tlam te BOEIPA loh Moses kut ah a uen vanbangla khopuei rhoek neh a khocaak rhoek he Israel ca rhoek loh Levi rhoek ham hmulung neh a suem pauh.

9 Thus then they gave—out of the tribe of the sons of Judah and out of the tribe of the sons of Simeon—these cities which are mentioned by name.

A ming la a khue khopuei rhoek te Judah ca rhoek cako neh Simeon ca rhoek cako khui lamkah khaw a suem pauh.

10 And the sons of Aaron, from among the sons of Kohath, from among the sons of Levi, had them, —because, theirs, was the first lot;

hmulung lamhma loh a nan coeng dongah Aaron ca rhoek ham te Kohathi huiko khui lamkah neh Levi ca rhoek khui lamkah khaw a om pah.

11 yea there was given unto them, the city of Arba, the father of Anak, the same, is Hebron, in the hill country of Judah, —with the pasture land thereof, round about it;

Judah tlang ah Anak napa Kiriatharba kah Hebron neh a kaepvai kah a khocaak te amih ham a suem pauh.

12 whereas, the fields of the city, and the villages thereof, gave they unto Caleb son of Jephunneh, as his possession.

Tedae khopuei vangca kah lohma te tah Jephunneh capa Kaleb taengah a khohut la a paek uh.

13 But, unto the sons of Aaron the priest, gave they the city of refuge for the manslayer, even Hebron, with the pasture lands thereof, —Libnah also, with her pasture lands;

Hlang aka ngawn kah hlipyingnah khopuei la Hebron neh a khocaak, Libnah neh a khocaak,

14 and Jattir with her pasture land, and Eshtemoa with her pasture land;

Jattir neh a khocaak, Eshtmoa neh a khocaak,

15 and Holon, with her pasture land, and Debir, with her pasture land;

17 And, out of the tribe of Benjamin, Gibeon, with her pasture land, —Geba, with her pasture land;

19 All the cities of the sons of Aaron, the priests, were thirteen cities, with their pasture lands.

Khosoih Aaron ca rhoek kah khopuei boeih he khopuei neh a khocaak bung hlai thum a lo pah.

20 And, as for the families of the sons of Kohath, the Levites, which remained of the sons of Kohath, the cities of their lot were out of the tribe of Ephraim.

Kohath ca rhoek khui lamkah aka hoei Levi Kohath ca rhoek kah a hui a ko, Ephraim koca rhoek lamkah ham khaw khopuei hmulung a om pah.

21 So they gave unto them a city of refuge for the manslayer, even Shechem with her pasture land, in the hill country of Ephraim, —also Gezer, with her pasture land;

Te vaengah amih te hlang aka ngawn kah hlipyingnah khopuei Shekhem neh Ephraim tlang kah a khocaak, Gezer neh a khocaak,

26 All the cities, were ten, with their pasture lands: for the families of the sons of Kohath which remained.

Kohath ca rhoek kah a hui a ko aka coih rhoek ham a pum la khopuei neh a khocaak parha a lo pah.

27 And, the sons of Gershon, of the families of the Levites, had, out of the half tribe of Manasseh, a city of refuge for the manslayer, even Golan in Bashan, with her pasture land, and Be-eshterah, with her pasture land, —two cities.

32 And, out of the tribe of Naphtali, a city of refuge for the manslayer—even Kedesh in Galilee, with her pasture land, and Hammoth-dor, with her pasture land, and Kartan, with her pasture land, —three cities.

Napthali koca rhoek taeng lamkah Galilee ah Kedesh, hlang aka ngawn rhoek kah hlipyingnah khopuei neh a khocaak, Hammothdor neh a khocaak, Kartan a khocaak khopuei pathum,

33 All, the cities of the Gershonites, by their families, were thirteen cities, with their pasture lands.

A pum boeih la a hui a ko tarhing ah Gershon rhoek kah khopuei he khopuei hlai thum neh a khocaak rhoek te om.

34 And, unto the families of the sons of Merari, the Levites that remained, out of the tribe of Zebulun, Jokneam, with her pasture land, —Kartah, with her pasture land;

Zebulun koca lamkah Levi la aka cul Merari ca rhoek kah a hui a ko rhoek ham khaw Jokneam neh a khocaak, Kartah neh a khocaak,

35 Dimnah, with her pasture land, Nahalal, with her pasture land, —four cities.

39 Heshbon, with her pasture land, Jazer, with her pasture land, —in all, four cities.

Heshbon neh a khocaak, Jazer neh a khocaak kho pali boeih,

40 All the cities for the sons of Merari, by their families, who remained of the families of the Levites, yea their lot was, twelve, cities.

Levi huiko lamkah aka cul Merari ca rhoek kah a huiko khopuei boeih te kho hlai nit la hmulung loh a naan pah.

41 All the cities of the Levites, in the midst of the possession of the sons of Israel, were forty-eight cities, with their pasture lands:

Israel ca rhoek khohut lakli ah Levi khopuei rhoek he a pum boeih la a khocaak rhoek neh kho sawmli parhet lo.

42 these cities passed, each severally, with its pasture lands round about it; thus, was it with all these cities.

Tekah kho rhoek te khopuei khopuei kah a kaep a vai ah kho tom boeih ham a khocaak khaw a om pauh.

43 So Yahweh gave unto Israel, all the land which he had sworn to give unto their fathers, —and they took possession thereof, and dwelt therein.

A napa rhoek taengah paek ham a caeng khohmuen boeih te BOEIPA loh Israel taengah a paek tih a pang uh dongah a khuiah kho a sak uh.

44 And Yahweh gave them rest round about, according to all that he had sworn unto their fathers, —and there stood not a man before them, of all their enemies; all their enemies, did Yahweh deliver into their hand.

A napa rhoek taengah boeih a caeng vanbangla a kaep a vai ah BOEIPA loh a duem sak tih a mikhmuh ah a thunkha khuikah hlang pakhat long khaw a pai thil moenih. A thunkha boeih te BOEIPA loh amih kut ah a paek.

45 There failed not a thing, out of all the good things, whereof Yahweh had spoken unto the house of Israel, —the whole, came to pass.

Israel imkhui ham BOEIPA loh ol then a thui te ol pakhat khaw a dalh mueh la boeih soep.
