Joshua 18
1 Gbogbo ìjọ àwọn ọmọ Israẹli péjọ ní Ṣilo, wọ́n si kọ́ àgọ́ ìpàdé ní ibẹ̀. Gbogbo ilẹ̀ náà sì wà ní abẹ́ àkóso wọn,
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 ṣùgbọ́n ó ku ẹ̀yà méje nínú àwọn ọmọ Israẹli tí kò tí ì gba ogún ìní wọn.
And the sons of Israel remained, [even] those who [had] not received their inheritance, seven tribes.
3 Báyìí ni Joṣua sọ fún àwọn ọmọ Israẹli, “Báwo ni ẹ̀yin yóò ṣe dúró pẹ́ tó, kí ẹ tó gba ilẹ̀ ìní tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run àwọn baba yín ti fi fún yín?
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 Ẹ yan àwọn ọkùnrin mẹ́ta nínú ẹ̀yà kọ̀ọ̀kan. Èmi yóò rán wọn jáde láti lọ bojú wo ilẹ̀ náà káàkiri, wọn yóò sì ṣe àpèjúwe rẹ̀, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìní ẹni kọ̀ọ̀kan. Nígbà náà ni wọn yóò padà tọ̀ mí wá.
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 Ẹ̀yin yóò sì pín ilẹ̀ náà sí ọ̀nà méje kí Juda dúró sí ilẹ̀ rẹ̀ ni ìhà gúúsù àti ilé Josẹfu ní ilẹ̀ rẹ̀ ní ìhà àríwá.
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 Lẹ́yìn ìgbà tí ẹ bá kọ àpèjúwe ọ̀nà méjèèje ilẹ̀ náà, ẹ mú wọn wá sí ọ̀dọ̀ mi ní ibí, èmi ó sì ṣẹ́ kèké fún yín ní iwájú Olúwa Ọlọ́run wa.
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 Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ọmọ Lefi kò ní ìpín ní àárín yín, nítorí iṣẹ́ àlùfáà. Olúwa ni ìní wọ́n. Gadi, Reubeni àti ìdajì ẹ̀yà Manase, ti gba ìní wọn ní ìhà ìlà-oòrùn Jordani. Mose ìránṣẹ́ Olúwa ti fi fún wọn.”
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 Bí àwọn ọkùnrin náà ti bẹ̀rẹ̀ ìrìnàjò wọn láti fojú díwọ̀n ilẹ̀ náà, Joṣua pàṣẹ fún wọn pé, “Ẹ lọ kí ẹ sì fojú díwọ̀n ilẹ̀ náà káàkiri, kí ẹ sì kọ àpèjúwe rẹ̀. Lẹ́yìn náà kí ẹ padà tọ̀ mí wá, kí èmi kí ò lè ṣẹ́ kèké fún yin ní ibí ní Ṣilo ní iwájú Olúwa.”
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 Báyìí ni àwọn ọkùnrin náà lọ, wọ́n sì la ilẹ̀ náà já. Wọ́n sì kọ àpèjúwe rẹ̀ sí orí ìwé kíká ní ìlú, ní ọ̀nà méje, wọ́n sì padà tọ Joṣua lọ ní ibùdó ní Ṣilo.
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 Joṣua sì ṣẹ́ gègé fún wọn ní Ṣilo ní iwájú Olúwa, Joṣua sì pín ilẹ̀ náà fún àwọn Israẹli gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìpín ẹ̀yà wọn ní ibẹ̀.
And Joshua cast the lot for them in Selo before the Lord.
11 Ìbò náà sì wá sórí ẹ̀yà Benjamini, ní agbo ilé, agbo ilé. Ilẹ̀ ìpín wọn sì wà láàrín ti ẹ̀yà Juda àti Josẹfu.
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 Ní ìhà àríwá ààlà wọn bẹ̀rẹ̀ ní Jordani, ó kọjá lọ sí gẹ̀rẹ́gẹ̀rẹ́ Jeriko ní ìhà àríwá, ó sì forí lé ìwọ̀-oòrùn sí ìlú òkè, jáde sí aginjù Beti-Afeni.
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.

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.

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.

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 Nígbà náà ni ó yípo sí ìhà àríwá, ó sì lọ sí Ẹni-Ṣemeṣi, ó tẹ̀síwájú dé Geliloti tí ó kọjú sí òkè Adummimu, ó sì sọ̀kalẹ̀ sí ibi Òkúta Bohani ọmọ Reubeni.
And [the borders] shall go across to the fountain of Baethsamys:
18 Ó tẹ̀síwájú títí dé gẹ̀rẹ́gẹ̀rẹ́ òkè Beti-Araba, ó sì sọ̀kalẹ̀ lọ sí aginjù.
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 Nígbà náà ni ó lọ sí gẹ̀rẹ́gẹ̀rẹ́ òkè Beti-Hogla, ó sì jáde ní àríwá etí bèbè Òkun Iyọ̀, ní ẹnu odò Jordani ní gúúsù. Èyí ni ààlà ti gúúsù.
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 Odò Jordani sí jẹ́ ààlà ní ìhà ìlà-oòrùn. Ìwọ̀nyí ní àwọn ààlà ti ó sàmì sí ìní àwọn ìdílé Benjamini ní gbogbo àwọn àyíká wọn.
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.
