Joshua 13
1 When Joshua was very old, Yahweh said to him, “Joshua, you are now an old man, but there is still a lot of land [for your army] to capture.
Joshua khaw a khohnin loh patong benla a paan coeng dongah BOEIPA loh, “Nang he na khohnin loh patong ben a paan coeng. Tedae khohmuen loh ham khaw a len ngai muep sueng pueng.
2 Here is a list of the land that remains: The Geshur region and all the area where the Philistia people-group live;
Tekah khohmuen aka sueng la, Philisti kho pum neh Geshuri boeih,
3 the area where the Canaan people-group live, from the Shihor River [in the south] at the [eastern] border of Egypt, to Ekron [city] in the north; the rulers of the five [cities] of Gaza, Ashdod, Ashkelon, Gath, and Ekron; the area where the Avva people-group live,
Egypt imdan Shihor lamkah tlangpuei Ekron khorhi due Kanaan boei panga la a hmoel Philisti, Azzathi, Ashodi, Eshkeloni, Ghitti, Ekroni neh Avvii,
4 which is south of the area where the Canaan people-group live;
tuithim lamkah Kanaan khohmuen pum neh Sidoni lungko, Amori khorhi Aphek due,
5 the area where the Gebal people-group live; and all the Lebanon area east of Baal-Gad [city] at the bottom of Hermon Mountain, as far as Lebo-Hamath.
Ghiblii khohmuen neh khocuk kah Lebanon pum, Hermon tlang yung Baalgad lamkah Lebokhamath due om pueng.
6 All the people of the Sidon people-group live in the hilly area from Lebanon to Misrephoth-Maim, but I will force them to leave that area before you Israelis arrive there. Be sure to give that area to the Israeli people when you divide the land among them, like I told you to do.
Lebanon lamkah Misrephothmayim due tlang aka om boeih Sidoni boeih te Israel ca rhoek mikhmuh ah kai loh ka haek vetih nang kang uen vanbangla Israel taengah rho la dawk tael pah.
7 Divide all that land among the nine Israeli tribes and half of the tribe of Manasseh, [the tribes that do not have land on the east side of the Jordan River].”
Khohmuen he koca pako neh Manasseh koca hlangvang ham rho la tael pah bal laeh.
8 Half of the tribe of Manasseh and the tribes of Reuben and Gad had already been told what land they would receive, because Moses, the man who served Yahweh [well], had already assigned to them the land on the east side of the Jordan [River].
“Reuben koca neh Gad koca ngawn tah BOEIPA kah sal Moses loh amih a paek vanbangla khocuk kah Jordan rhalvangan ah Moses loh amih a paek te amamih kah rho la a loh uh coeng,” a ti nah.
9 Their land extended from Aroer [town] at the Arnon River gorge to the town in the middle of the gorge. It included the whole plain from Medeba [town south] to Dibon [town].
Arnon soklong kaep Aroer lamkah soklong bangli kah khopuei neh Medeba tlangkol boeih, Dibon due,
10 All the towns ruled by King Sihon were in that area. The land extended to where the Ammon people-group lived.
Heshbon ah aka manghai Amori manghai kah Sihon khopuei boeih neh Ammon ca rhoek kah khorhi due,
11 The Gilead area was also there, and the regions where the people of the Geshur and Maacah people-groups lived, and all of Hermon Mountain and all the Bashan region [south] to Salecah.
Gilead neh Geshuri khorhi, Maakathi neh Hermon tlang pum, Bashan pum neh Salkhah due,
12 All the land ruled by Og, the king who ruled the Bashan [region], was in that land. Og was one of the last descendants of Repha; previously he had ruled in Ashtaroth and Edrei [cities], but [the armies of] Moses had defeated their armies and had taken their land from them.
Ashtaroth neh Edrei ah aka manghai Bashan Oga kah a ram boeih, [Anih he Rapha hlangrhuel lamkah aka sueng duen ni]. Amih te Moses loh a tloek tih a khoe.
13 But the Israelis did not force the people of the Geshur and Maacah [people-groups] to leave their land, so they still live among the Israeli people.
Tedae Geshuri neh Maakathi tah Israel ca rhoek loh haek uh pawh. Te dongah Geshuri neh Maakah loh tihnin duela Israel lakli ah kho a sak.
14 The tribe of Levi was the only tribe that did not get any land. Instead, just like Yahweh promised, they continued to receive [food from] the sacrifices that were given to Yahweh, the God whom the Israelis [worship], the sacrifices that were burned [on the sacred altar].
Tedae Levi koca te tah rho pae pawh. Amah taengah a thui pah vanbangla Israel Pathen BOEIPA kah hmaihlutnah te anih kah rho la om coeng.
15 Moses had allotted land to each clan in the tribe of Reuben.
Reuben ca rhoek kah koca te amah huiko tarhing ah Moses loh a paek.
16 Their land extended from Aroer [town] near the Arnon River gorge to Medeba [town]. That included all of the plain [that is near Medeba] and the town in the middle of the gorge.
Te vaengah Arnon soklong kaep kah Aroer khorhi neh soklong bangli kah khopuei, Medeba tlangkol boeih,
17 It also included Heshbon [city] and all the nearby towns on the plain—Dibon, Bamioth-Baal, Beth-Baal-Meon,
Heshbon neh Dibon tlangkol kah khopuei boeih, Bamothbaal neh Bethbaal,
18 Jahaz, Kedemoth, Mephaath,
Jahaz, Kedemoth neh Mephaath,
19 Kiriathaim, Sibmah, Zereth-Shahar on the hill overlooking the valley,
Kiriathaim, Sibam neh tuikol tlang kah Zarethshahar,
20 Beth-Peor, the hills in the Pisgah area, and Beth-Jeshimoth.
Bethpeor, Pisgah, tuibah neh Bethjeshimoth,
21 That land included all the towns on the plain and all the area that King Sihon had previously ruled. But [the army of] Moses had defeated him and the rulers of the Midian people-group: Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur, and Reba. The armies of all those rulers fought battles along with the army of Sihon, and they lived in that country.
tlangkol khopuei boeih, Heshbon ah manghai tih Moses loh a tloek Amori manghai Sihon neh Midian khoboei Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur neh Reba, khohmuen kah khosa tangtae Sihon boeimang rhoek kah a ram boeih khaw amih hut la ana om.
22 The Israeli army killed many people during those battles, including Balaam, [the prophet] from Beor, who tried to use magic to predict/tell what would happen in the future.
Te vaengkah hlang aka bi Balaam, Beor capa te rhok taengah Israel ca rhoek loh cunghang neh a ngawn uh.
23 The [western] boundary of the land that was allotted to the clans of the tribe of Reuben was the Jordan [River].
Te dongah Jordan neh Jordan rhi he Reuben ca rhoek kah khorhi, Reuben ca rhoek kah rho, amih huiko kah khopuei vongup la om.
24 Moses also allotted some land to each clan in the tribe of Gad.
Gad koca te khaw Gad ca rhoek taengkah amah huiko tarhing la Moses loh a phaeng coeng.
25 Their land included the Jazer [area] and all the towns of the Gilead [area]; half of the land where the Ammon people-group lived, as far as Aroer [town which is] near Rabbah [town];
Te dongah Jazer khorhi neh Gilead khopuei boeih, Ammon ca rhoek khohmuen rhakthuem neh Rabbah imdan kah Aroer due,
26 the area from Heshbon [city] to Ramath-Mizpah and Betonim [towns; the area] from Mahanaim [town] to the Debir region;
Heshbon lamloh Ramah Mizpeh neh Betonim duela, Mahanaim lamloh Lodebar khorhi duela,
27 Beth-Haram, Beth-Nimrah, Succoth, and Zaphon [cities] in the valley; and the other area that King Sihon had ruled on the east side of the Jordan River. That area extended [north] to the southern end of Galilee Lake.
tuikol ah khaw Bethharam neh Bethnimrah, Sukkoth neh Zaphon, Jordan ah Heshbon manghai Sihon kah a ram ngancawn neh khocuk ah Jordan kaep kah Kinnereth tuili hmoi kah khorhi due amih hut la om.
28 All this land, including the towns and villages, was allotted to the tribe of Gad.
He tah Gad koca rhoek rho neh amih huiko kah khopuei vangca rhoek ni.
29 Moses also had allotted some of the land [on the east side of the Jordan River] to half of the tribe of Manasseh.
Te phoeiah Manasseh koca hlangvang neh Manasseh ca rhoek kah cako ngancawn la aka om te amah huiko tarhing la Moses loh a phaeng.
30 Their land extended [north] from Mahanaim [city]. It included all the Bashan region, all the land that King Og had ruled, and all the towns in the Jair area in Bashan. Altogether that area included 60 towns.
Te dongah Mahanaim lamloh Bashan manghai Oga kah a ram pum la aka om Bashan boeih, Jair vangca boeih neh Bashan kah khopuei sawmrhuk,
31 Their area also included half of the Gilead region, and the cities of Ashtaroth and Edrei where King Og had ruled. All that area was allotted to the clans descended from Manasseh’s son Makir.
Gilead ngancawn neh Bashan ah Oga ram kah khopuei rhoek la Ashtaroth neh Edrei te Manasseh capa Makir koca rhoek, Makir ca rhoek hlangvang neh a huiko kah khorhi la om.
32 Moses had allotted to those tribes the land that was on the plain of the Moab [region], on the east side of the Jordan [River], across from Jericho.
He rhoek he Jerikho khocuk Jordan rhalvangan kah Moab kolken ah ni Moses loh a phaeng coeng.
33 But Moses did not allot any land to the tribe of Levi because Yahweh, the God whom we Israelis worship, promised that he himself would always provide for them.
Tedae Levi koca te tah Moses loh rho pae pawh. Amih taengah a thui pah vanbangla Israel Pathen BOEIPA tah amih kah rho la om coeng.
