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;
Derpaa traadte Overhovederne for Leviternes Fædrenehuse frem for Præsten Eleazar og Josua, Nuns Søn, og Overhovederne for de israelitiske Stammers Fædrenehuse
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.
og talte saaledes til dem i Silo i Kana'ans Land: »HERREN bød ved Moses, at der skulde gives os nogle Byer at bo i med tilhørende Græsmarker til vort Kvæg.«
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.
Da afgav Israeliterne i Følge HERRENS Bud af deres Arvelod følgende Byer med Græsmarker til Leviterne.

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.
Og HERREN gav dem Ro rundt om, ganske som han havde tilsvoret deres Fædre, og ingen iblandt deres Fjender kunde holde Stand over for dem; alle deres Fjender gav HERREN i deres Haand.
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.
Ikke eet af alle de gode Ord, HERREN havde talet til Israels Hus, faldt til Jorden; alle sammen gik de i Opfyldelse.
