Iyyaasuu 18

1 Guutummaan waldaa Israaʼel Shiilootti walitti qabamee dunkaana wal gaʼii achitti dhaabate. Biyyattiin harka isaanii jala galte;

And all the congregation of the children of Israel were assembled at Selo, and there they pitched the tabernacle of witness; and the land was subdued by them.

2 taʼus amma illee gosoonni Israaʼel torba dhaala isaanii hin fudhanne ture.

And the sons of Israel remained, [even] those who [had] not received their inheritance, seven tribes.

3 Kanaafuu Iyyaasuun Israaʼelootaan akkana jedhe; “Isin utuu biyya Waaqayyo Waaqni abbootii keessanii isinii kenne kana hin fudhatin hamma yoomiitti turtu?

And Joshua said to the sons of Israel, How long will you be slack to inherit the land, which the Lord our God has given you?

4 Tokkoo tokkoo gosaa keessaa nama sadii sadii kennadhaa. Anis akka isaan biyya sana ilaalanii akkuma dhaala gosa hundaatti waaʼee ishee barreessaniif isaan nan erga. Isaanis ergasii gara kootti deebiʼu.

Appoint of yourselves three men of each tribe, and let them rise up and go through the land, and let them describe it before me, as it will be proper to divide it.

5 Isin biyya sana iddoo torbatti qoodu qabdu. Yihuudaan biyya karaa Kibbaa keessatti hafee manni Yoosef immoo biyya karaa kaabaatti hafuu qaba.

And they came to him: and he divided to them seven portions, [saying], Juda shall stand to them a border southward, and the sons of Joseph shall stand to them northward.

6 Isin erga waaʼee biyya iddoo torbatti qoodamte sanaa barreessitanii booddee gabaasa natti fidaa; anis fuula Waaqayyo Waaqa keenyaa duratti ixaa isinii buusa.

And do you divide the land into seven parts, and bring the description hither to me, and I will give you a lot before the Lord our God.

7 Gosti Lewwii garuu gidduu keessanitti qooda lafaa hin argatu; sababiin isaas tajaajilli lubummaa kan isaan Waaqayyoof kennan sun dhaala isaanii ti. Gosti Gaad, kan Ruubeenii fi walakkaan gosa Minaasee duraanuu karaa baʼa Yordaanosiin qooda isaanii argatanii jiru. Museen garbichi Waaqayyoo sun isaaniif kennee ture.”

For the sons of Levi have no part amongst you; for the priesthood of the Lord [is] his portion; and Gad, and Ruben, and the half tribe of Manasse, have received their inheritance beyond Jordan eastward, which Moses the servant of the Lord gave to them.

8 Kanaafuu jarri karaa isaanii qabatanii qajeelan; Iyyaasuunis warra haala biyyattii barreessuu dhaqaniin akkana jedhe; “Dhaqaatii biyya sana sakattaʼaatii waaʼee ishee galmeessaa. Ergasii immoo gara koo kottaa; anis asuma Shiilootti fuula Waaqayyoo duratti ixaa isiniif nan buusa.”

And the men rose up and went; and Joshua charged the men who went to explore the land, saying, Go and explore the land, and come to me, and I will bring you forth a lot here before the Lord in Selo.

9 Kanaafuu namoonni sun kaʼanii biyya sana keessa dedeemanii waaʼee haala ishees magaalaa magaalaadhaan iddoo torbatti qoodanii kitaaba maramaa irratti barreessanii qubata Shiilootti gara Iyyaasuutti deebiʼan.

And they went, and explored the land: and they viewed it, and described it according to the cities, seven parts in a book, and brought [the book] to Joshua.

10 Iyyaasuun ergasii Shiiloo keessatti fuula Waaqayyoo duratti ixaa buuseef; akkuma qooda gosa isaaniittis Israaʼelootaaf biyyattii hire.

And Joshua cast the lot for them in Selo before the Lord.

11 Ixaan jalqabaa akkuma balbala balbala isaaniitti gosa Beniyaamiif baʼe. Biyyi isaan ixaadhaan argatanis gosa Yihuudaatii fi gosa Yoosef gidduutti argama.

And the lot of the tribe of Benjamin came forth first according to their families: and the borders of their lot came forth between the children of Juda and the children of Joseph.

12 Karaa kaabaatiin daariin isaanii Yordaanosii kaʼee kaaba tabba Yerikoo irra darbuudhaan karaa lixaatiin biyya gaaraatti gad buʼee gammoojjii Beet Aawweniitiin baʼa.

And their borders were northward: the borders shall go up from Jordan behind Jericho northward, and shall go up to the mountain westward, and the issue of it shall be Baethon of Mabdara.

13 Achii kaʼee kibba tabba Luuzitti jechuunis Beetʼeelitti darbee gara Axaaroti Adaar kan gaara kibba Beet Horoon isa gadii sanaatti gad buʼa.

And the borders will go forth thence to Luz, behind Luz, from the south of it; this is Baethel: and the borders shall go down to Maatarob Orech, to the hill country, which is southward of Baethoron the lower.

14 Daariin sunis karaa kibbaatiin gaara Beet Horoonitti garagalee jiru sanaa kaʼee karaa lixaatiin gara kibbaatti goree magaalaa ilmaan Yihuudaa kan Kiriyaati Baʼaal jechuunis Kiriyaati Yeʼaariim gaʼa. Kunis daangaa lixaa ti.

And the borders shall pass through and proceed to the part that looks towards the sea, on the south, from the mountain in front of Baethoron southward, and its termination shall be at Cariath-Baal, this is Cariath-Jarin, a city of the children of Juda; this is the part towards the west.

15 Daangaan kibbaa karaa lixaatiin qarqara Kiriyaati Yeʼaariimiitii jalqaba; daangaan isaa immoo gara bishaan Neftooʼaatti gad buʼa.

And the south side on the part of Cariath-Baal; and the borders shall go across to Gasin, to the fountain of the water of Naphtho.

16 Daangaan sunis karaa kaaba Sulula Refaayimiitiin gara gaara Sulula Ben Hinoomitti garagalutti gad buʼa. Innis tabba kibba magaalaa Yebuusotaa biraan gara Sulula Hinoomitti itti fufee gara Een Roogeelitti gad buʼa.

And the borders shall extend down on one side, this is in front of the forest of Sonnam, which is on the side of Emec Raphain northward, and it shall come down to Gaeenna behind Jebusai southward: it shall come down to the fountain of Rogel.

17 Ergasii gara kaabaatti goree Een Shemesh dhaqa; achii kaʼees gara Geliiloot kan Malkaa Adumiimitti gara galtee jirtu sanaa itti fufee hamma Dhagaa Boohan ilma Ruubeen sanaatti gad buʼa.

And [the borders] shall go across to the fountain of Baethsamys:

18 Ammas gara tabba kaaba Arabbaatti itti fufee gara Arabbaatti gad buʼa.

and shall proceed to Galiloth, which is in front by the going up of Aethamin; and they shall come down to the stone of Baeon of the sons of Ruben; and shall pass over behind Baetharaba northward, and shall go down to the borders behind the sea northward.

19 Ergasii tabba kaaba Beet Hoglaatti qajeelee karaa kaaba galoo Galaana Soogiddaa kan karaa kibbaatiin afaan Yordaanositti argamtuutiin baʼa. Kun daarii karaa kibbaa ti.

And the termination of the borders shall be at the creek of the salt sea northward to the side of Jordan southward: these are their southern borders.

20 Lagni Yordaanosis karaa baʼaatiin daarii taʼa. Isaan kunneen daariiwwan dhaala ilmaan Beniyaamiitiif karaa hundaan dhaabamanii dha.

And Jordan shall be their boundary on the east: this [is] the inheritance of the children of Benjamin, these [are] their borders round about according to their families.

21 Magaalaawwan gosti Beniyaam akkuma maatii maatii isaaniitti argatan kanneenii dha: Yerikoo, Beet Hoglaa, Eemeqi Qaziizi,
