< Yosua 21 >

1 Pada suatu hari para kepala keluarga dalam suku Lewi pergi ke Silo di negeri Kanaan, dan menghadap Imam Eleazar, Yosua anak Nun, dan para kepala keluarga seluruh suku-suku bangsa Israel. Mereka berkata, "Melalui Musa, TUHAN sudah memerintahkan supaya kepada kami, orang-orang Lewi, diberi kota-kota untuk tempat tinggal kami dan tanah-tanah padang di sekitar kota-kota itu untuk ternak kami."
Then came near the heads of the fathers of the Levites unto Eleazar the priest, and unto Joshua the son of Nun, and unto the heads of the fathers of the tribes of the children of Israel;
2
And they spake unto them at Shiloh in the land of Canaan, saying, Yhwh commanded by the hand of Moses to give us cities to dwell in, with the suburbs thereof for our cattle.
3 Maka orang Israel mengikuti perintah TUHAN. Dari tanah milik mereka sendiri, mereka memberikan kepada orang Lewi kota-kota tertentu dengan tanah-tanah padangnya.
And the children of Israel gave unto the Levites out of their inheritance, at the commandment of Yhwh, these cities and their suburbs.
4 Yang pertama-tama menerima kota-kotanya adalah keluarga-keluarga dari kaum Kehat dalam suku Lewi. Keluarga-keluarga keturunan Imam Harun diberikan tiga belas kota dari wilayah suku Yehuda, Simeon dan Benyamin.
And the lot came out for the families of the Kohathites: and the children of Aaron the priest, which were of the Levites, had by lot out of the tribe of Judah, and out of the tribe of Simeon, and out of the tribe of Benjamin, thirteen cities.
5 Keluarga-keluarga lainnya dari kaum Kehat diberi sepuluh kota dari wilayah suku Efraim, suku Dan serta suku Manasye yang di sebelah barat Sungai Yordan.
And the rest of the children of Kohath had by lot out of the families of the tribe of Ephraim, and out of the tribe of Dan, and out of the half tribe of Manasseh, ten cities.
6 Kaum Gerson mendapat tiga belas kota dari wilayah suku Isakhar, Asyer, Naftali dan suku Manasye yang di sebelah timur Sungai Yordan.
And the children of Gershon had by lot out of the 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, thirteen cities.
7 Keluarga-keluarga dari kaum Merari mendapat dua belas kota dari wilayah suku Ruben, Gad dan Zebulon.
The children 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.
8 Demikianlah orang Israel membagi-bagikan kota-kota tersebut dengan tanah-tanah padangnya melalui undian kepada orang Lewi, seperti yang diperintahkan TUHAN melalui Musa.
And the children of Israel gave by lot unto the Levites these cities with their suburbs, as Yhwh commanded by the hand of Moses.
9 Dari kaum Kehat dalam suku Lewi, imam-imam keturunan Harunlah yang pertama-tama menerima kota-kotanya; mereka diberi tiga belas kota dengan tanah-tanah padangnya. Dari suku Yehuda dan Simeon, mereka menerima sembilan kota, yaitu: Libna, Yatir, Estemoa, Holon, Debir, Ain, Yuta, Bet-Semes dan Arba, yang dinamakan menurut nama ayah Enak. Kota itu, yang sekarang bernama Hebron, adalah sebuah kota suaka di pegunungan Yehuda. Ladang-ladang dan desa-desa kota ini sudah diberikan kepada Kaleb anak Yefune untuk menjadi tanah miliknya. Dari suku Benyamin mereka menerima empat kota, yaitu: Gibeon, Geba, Anatot dan Almon.
And they gave out of the tribe of the children of Judah, and out of the tribe of the children of Simeon, these cities which are here mentioned by name,
Which the children of Aaron, being of the families of the Kohathites, who were of the children of Levi, had: for theirs was the first lot.
And they gave them the city of Arba the father of Anak, which city is Hebron, in the hill country of Judah, with the suburbs thereof round about it.
But the fields of the city, and the villages thereof, gave they to Caleb the son of Jephunneh for his possession.
Thus they gave to the children of Aaron the priest Hebron with her suburbs, to be a city of refuge for the slayer; and Libnah with her suburbs,
And Jattir with her suburbs, and Eshtemoa with her suburbs,
And Holon with her suburbs, and Debir with her suburbs,

Dari suku Dan mereka menerima empat kota, yaitu: Elteke, Gibeton, Ayalon dan Gat-Rimon. Dari suku Manasye yang di sebelah barat mereka menerima dua kota, yaitu: Taanakh dan Gat-Rimon.
And the families of the children of Kohath, the Levites which remained of the children of Kohath, even they had the cities of their lot out of the tribe of Ephraim.
For they gave them Shechem with her suburbs in mount Ephraim, to be a city of refuge for the slayer; and Gezer with her suburbs,
And Kibzaim with her suburbs, and Beth–horon with her suburbs; four cities.
And out of the tribe of Dan, Eltekeh with her suburbs, Gibbethon with her suburbs,

And unto the children of Gershon, of the families of the Levites, out of the other half tribe of Manasseh they gave Golan in Bashan with her suburbs, to be a city of refuge for the slayer; and Beesh–terah with her suburbs; two cities.
And out of the tribe of Issachar, Kishon with her suburbs, Dabareh with her suburbs,

All the cities of the Gershonites according to their families were thirteen cities with their suburbs.
34 Kaum yang sisa dalam suku Lewi, yaitu kaum Merari diberi dua belas kota dengan tanah-tanah padangnya. Dari suku Zebulon mereka menerima empat kota, yaitu: Yokneam, Karta, Dimna dan Nahalal. Dari suku Ruben mereka menerima empat kota, yaitu Bezer, Yahas, Kedemot dan Mefaat. Dari suku Gad mereka menerima empat kota, yaitu: Mahanaim, Hesybon, Yaezer dan Ramot, sebuah kota suaka di Gilead.
And unto the families of the children of Merari, the rest of the Levites, out of the tribe of Zebulun, Jokneam with her suburbs, and Kartah with her suburbs,

And out of the tribe of Reuben, Bezer with her suburbs, and Jahazah with her suburbs,

And out of the tribe of Gad, Ramoth in Gilead with her suburbs, to be a city of refuge for the slayer; and Mahanaim with her suburbs,

So all the cities for the children of Merari by their families, which were remaining of the families of the Levites, were by their lot twelve cities.
41 Jadi dari tanah-tanah yang dimiliki seluruh bangsa Israel ada sejumlah empat puluh delapan kota dengan tanah-tanah padang di sekitarnya yang diberikan kepada orang-orang Lewi.
All the cities of the Levites within the possession of the children of Israel were forty and eight cities with their suburbs.
These cities were every one with their suburbs round about them: thus were all these cities.
43 Demikianlah TUHAN memberikan kepada umat Israel seluruh tanah yang telah dijanjikan-Nya dengan sumpah kepada nenek moyang mereka. Setelah menduduki negeri itu, umat Israel menetap di sana.
And Yhwh gave unto Israel all the land which he sware to give unto their fathers; and they possessed it, and dwelt therein.
44 Maka sesuai dengan apa yang dijanjikan TUHAN kepada nenek moyang mereka, negeri itu aman karena dilindungi TUHAN. Musuh-musuh mereka tidak satu pun yang dapat melawan mereka, sebab TUHAN memberi kemenangan kepada orang Israel atas semua musuh mereka.
And Yhwh gave them rest round about, according to all that he sware unto their fathers: and there stood not a man of all their enemies before them; Yhwh delivered all their enemies into their hand.
45 TUHAN menepati setiap janji-Nya kepada umat Israel; tidak satu pun yang tidak ditepati-Nya.
There failed not ought of any good thing which Yhwh had spoken unto the house of Israel; all came to pass.
