< 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;
त्यसपछि लेवी कुलका कुलनायकहरू पुजारी एलाजार, नूनका छोरा यहोशू र इस्राएलका मानिसहरूभित्रका तिनीहरूका पुर्खाहरूको परिवारहरूका अगुवाहरूकहाँ आए ।
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.
तिनीहरूले कनानको भूमिमा शीलोमा तिनीहरूलाई भने, “परमप्रभुले मोशाद्वारा हाम्रा गाईवस्तुहरूका निम्ति खर्कसहितका बसोबास गर्न हामीलाई सहरहरू दिन आज्ञा गर्नुभएको थियो ।”
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.
त्यसैले इस्राएलका मानिसहरूले परमप्रभुको आज्ञाद्वारा लेवीहरूलाई तिनीहरूका खर्कहरूसहित तिनीहरूको उत्तराधिकारबाट निम्‍न सहरहरू दिए ।
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.
कहातीहरूका निम्ति हालेको चिट्ठाको परिणाम यस्तो आयोः लेवीबाट जन्‍मेका हारूनका सन्तानहरू, पुजारीहरूले यहूदाको कुलबाट, शिमियोनका कुलबाट र बेन्यामीनको कुलबाट दिइएका तेह्रवटा सहर पाए ।
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.
बाँकी कहातीहरूलाई एफ्राइम, दान र मनश्शेको आधा कुलबाट दश सहर दिइयो ।
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.
त्यसपछि गेर्शोनबाट जन्मेका मानिसहरूलाई चिट्ठाद्वारा इस्साखार, आशेर, नप्‍तली र बाशानमा मनश्शेको आधा कुलबाट तेह्रवटा सहर दिइयो ।
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.
मरारीका सन्तानहरूका कुल-कुलअनुसार रूबेन, गाद र जबूलूनको कुलबाट बाह्रवटा सहर पाए ।
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.
त्यसैले इस्राएलका मानिसहरूले परमप्रभुले मोशाद्वारा आज्ञा दिनुभएमुताबिक लेवीहरूलाई यी सहरहरू (तिनीहरूका खर्कहरूसहित) चिट्ठा हालेर दिए ।
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.
यहूदा र शिमियोनका कुलहरूबाट तिनीहरूले यहाँ नाउँद्वारा सूची बनाएअनुसार दिए ।
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;
यी सहरहरू हारूनका सन्तानहरूलाई दिइयो, जो कहाती कुलका थिए र लेवी वंशबाटका थिए । किनभने पहिले हालेको चिट्ठा तिनीहरूलाई पर्‍यो ।
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;
इस्राएलीहरूलाई किर्यत-अर्बा (अर्बा अनाका पिता थिए) अर्थात् जुन हेब्रोन हो यहूदाको पहाडी देशमा यसका खर्कहरूसहित तिनीहरूलाई दिए ।
12 whereas, the fields of the city, and the villages thereof, gave they unto Caleb son of Jephunneh, as his possession.
तर तिनीहरूका गाउँहरूसहित सहरका खेतहरू यपुन्‍नेका छोरा कालेबलाई पहिले नै तिनको अधिकारको रूपमा दिइएको थियो ।

बाँकी कहातीहरू जो लेवी कुलको कहाती थिए, तिनीहरूले चिट्ठा हालेर एफ्राइमको कुलबाट तिनीहरूलाई दिएका थिए ।
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;

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.
यसरी परमप्रभुले इस्राएलका पुर्खाहरूलाई दिन्छु भनी प्रतिज्ञा गर्नुभएको सबै भू-भाग दिनुभयो । इस्राएलीहरूले यो कब्जा गरे र त्यहाँ बसोबास गरे ।
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.
त्यसपछि परमप्रभु तिनीहरूका पुर्खाहरूलाई प्रतिज्ञा गर्नुभएबमोजिम नै तिनीहरूलाई चारैतिर विश्राम दिनुभयो । तिनीहरूका एक जना शत्रुले पनि तिनीहरूलाई पराजित गर्न सकेन । परमप्रभुले तिनीहरूका सबै शत्रुलाई तिनीहरूका हातमा सुम्पिदिनुभयो ।
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.
परमप्रभुले इस्राएलको घरानालाई भन्‍नुभएका सबै असल प्रतिज्ञाहरूमध्ये एउटा पनि सत्य हुन आउनबाट चुकेन । ती सबै नै पुरा हुन आए ।
