Josué 13

1 Now Joshua was old and well advanced in years. Yahweh said to him, "You are old and advanced in years, and there remains yet very much land to be possessed.

2 "This is the land that still remains: all the regions of the Philistines, and all the Geshurites; 3 from the Shihor, which is before Egypt, even to the border of Ekron northward, which is counted as Canaanite; the five lords of the Philistines; the Gazites, and the Ashdodites, the Ashkelonites, the Gittites, and the Ekronites; also the Avvim, 4 on the south; all the land of the Canaanites, and Mearah that belongs to the Sidonians, to Aphek, to the border of the Amorites; 5 and the land of the Gebalites, and all Lebanon, toward the sunrise, from Baal Gad under Mount Hermon to the entrance of Hamath; 6 all the inhabitants of the hill country from Lebanon to Misrephoth Maim, even all the Sidonians. I will drive them out from before the children of Israel. Just allocate it to Israel for an inheritance, as I have commanded you. 7 Now therefore divide this land for an inheritance to the nine tribes and the half-tribe of Manasseh." 8 With him the Reubenites and the Gadites received their inheritance, which Moses gave them, beyond the Jordan eastward, even as Moses the servant of Yahweh gave them: 9 from Aroer, that is on the edge of the valley of the Arnon, and the city that is in the middle of the valley, and all the plain of Medeba to Dibon; 10 and all the cities of Sihon king of the Amorites, who reigned in Heshbon, to the border of the children of Ammon; 11 and Gilead, and the border of the Geshurites and Maacathites, and all Mount Hermon, and all Bashan to Salecah; 12 all the kingdom of Og in Bashan, who reigned in Ashtaroth and in Edrei (who was left of the remnant of the Rephaim); for Moses attacked these, and drove them out. 13 Nevertheless the children of Israel didn’t drive out the Geshurites, nor the Maacathites: but Geshur and Maacath live within Israel to this day. 14 Only he gave no inheritance to the tribe of Levi. The offerings of Yahweh, the God of Israel, made by fire are his inheritance, as he spoke to him. 15 Moses gave to the tribe of the children of Reuben according to their families. 16 Their border was from Aroer, that is on the edge of the valley of the Arnon, and the city that is in the middle of the valley, and all the plain by Medeba; 17 Heshbon, and all its cities that are in the plain; Dibon, Bamoth Baal, Beth Baal Meon, 18 Jahaz, Kedemoth, Mephaath, 19 Kiriathaim, Sibmah, Zereth Shahar in the mount of the valley, 20 Beth Peor, the slopes of Pisgah, Beth Jeshimoth, 21 all the cities of the plain, and all the kingdom of Sihon king of the Amorites, who reigned in Heshbon, whom Moses struck with the chiefs of Midian, Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur, and Reba, the princes of Sihon, who lived in the land. 22 The children of Israel also killed Balaam the son of Beor, the soothsayer, with the sword, among the rest of their slain.

23 The border of the children of Reuben was the bank of the Jordan. This was the inheritance of the children of Reuben according to their families, the cities and its villages.

24 Moses gave to the tribe of Gad, to the children of Gad, according to their families. 25 Their border was Jazer, and all the cities of Gilead, and half the land of the children of Ammon, to Aroer that is near Rabbah; 26 and from Heshbon to Ramath Mizpeh, and Betonim; and from Mahanaim to the border of Debir; 27 and in the valley, Beth Haram, Beth Nimrah, Succoth, and Zaphon, the rest of the kingdom of Sihon king of Heshbon, the Jordan’s bank, to the uttermost part of the sea of Chinnereth beyond the Jordan eastward. 28 This is the inheritance of the children of Gad according to their families, the cities and its villages.

29 Moses gave an inheritance to the half-tribe of Manasseh. It was for the half-tribe of the children of Manasseh according to their families. 30 Their border was from Mahanaim, all Bashan, all the kingdom of Og king of Bashan, and all the villages of Jair, which are in Bashan, sixty cities. 31 Half Gilead, Ashtaroth, and Edrei, the cities of the kingdom of Og in Bashan, were for the children of Machir the son of Manasseh, even for the half of the children of Machir according to their families.

32 These are the inheritances which Moses distributed in the plains of Moab, beyond the Jordan at Jericho, eastward. 33 But Moses gave no inheritance to the tribe of Levi. Yahweh, the God of Israel, is their inheritance, as he spoke to them.

Te Whenua Kāhore anō i Tangohia

1 Ā, ka koroheketia a Hohua, kua maha ōna rā; nā, ka mea a Ihowā ki a ia, "Kua koroheketia koe, kua maha ōu rā, ā, he nui atu te whenua e toe ana, kāhore anō i tangohia.

2 "Ko te whenua tēnei e toe ana: ko ngā wāhi o ngā Pirihitini, ko ngā Kehuri katoa: 3 o Hihoro mai anō, i te ritenga atu o Īhipa ā tae noa ki ngā rohe o Ekerono whaka te raki, e kīia nei nō ngā Kanaani (e rima ngā wāhi ariki o ngā Pirihitini; ko ngā Kahati, ko ngā Aharori, ko ngā Ahakeroni, ko ngā Kiti, ko ngā Ekeroni), me ngā Āwimi, 4 ki te tonga; ko te whenua katoa o ngā Kanaani, me Meara i te taha o ngā Haironi tae noa ki Apeke, ki ngā rohe o ngā Amori; 5 me te whenua o ngā Kipiri, me Repanōna katoa whaka te rāwhiti atu o Paara-Kara i raro iho o Maunga Heremona tae noa ki te haerenga atu ki Hāmata.

6 "Ko ngā tāngata katoa o te whenua pukepuke, o Repanōna tae noa ki Mihirepoto Maimi, me ngā Haironi katoa; ka peia rātou e ahau i te aroaro o ngā tama a Īharaira; māu ia e wehe a reira hei kāinga tupu mō Īharaira, me pērā me tāku i whakahau ai ki a koe. 7 Nā reira, wehewehea tēnei whenua hei kāinga tupu mō ngā iwi e iwa, rātou ko tētahi tānga o te iwi o Mānahi."

Te Wehenga Rohe i te Rāwhiti o Horano

8 I whiwhi tahi rātou ko ngā Reupeni, ko ngā Kari ki tō rātou wāhi, i hoatu rā ki a rātou e Mohi ki tāwāhi o Horano whaka te rāwhiti, arā ko tā Mohi, ko tā te pononga a Ihowā i hoatu ai ki a rātou.

9 O Aroere atu i te taha o te awaawa o Aranona, me te pā i waenganui o te awaawa, me te mānia katoa o Merepa tae noa ki Ripono; 10 me ngā pā katoa o Hihona kīngi o ngā Amori, i kīngi rā ki Hehepona, tae noa ki te rohe ki ngā tama a Āmona; 11 me Kireara, me te rohe ki ngā Kehuri, ki ngā Maakati, me Maunga Heremona katoa, me Pahana katoa, tae noa ki Hareka; 12 te kīngitanga katoa o Oka i Pahana; i kīngi hoki ia ki Ahataroto, ki Eterei, (he toenga ia nō ngā oranga o ngā Repaima); i patua hoki ēnei e Mohi, ā, peia atu ana. 13 Ko ngā Kehuri ia me ngā Maakati kīhai i peia e ngā tama a Īharaira; engari i noho ngā Kehuri rātou ko ngā Maakati i waenganui o Īharaira ā taea noatia tēnei rā.

14 Ko te iwi anake o Rīwai, kīhai i hoatu e ia he kāinga tupu; ko ngā whakahere ahi a Ihowā, a te Atua o Īharaira, te wāhi tupu mō rātou, ko tāna hoki i kōrero ai ki a ia.

Te Rohe a Reupena

15 Ā, rite tonu ki ō rātou hapū tā Mohi i hoatu ai ki te iwi o ngā tama a Reupena:

16 Ā, ko te rohe ki a rātou kei Aroere, kei te taha o te awaawa o Aranona, kei te pā hoki i waenganui o te awaawa me te mānia katoa i Merepa; 17 ko Hehepona me ō reira pā katoa i te mānia; ko Ripono, me Pāmotopaara, me Petepaara Meono, 18 ko Iahata hoki, me Keremoto, me Mepaata, 19 me Kiriataima, me Hipima, me Terete Hahara i te maunga o taua raorao, 20 me Petepeoro, me Aharoto Pihika, me Peteiehimoto, 21 me ngā pā katoa o te mānia, me te kīngitanga katoa o Hihona, o te kīngi o ngā Amori, i kīngi nei ki Hehepona, i patua ngātahitia nei e Mohi me ngā ariki o Miriana, me Ēwi, rātou ko Rekeme, ko Turu, ko Huru, ko Repa; nā Hihona ēnā ariki, ā, i noho ki taua whenua. 22 I patua anō hoki e ngā tama a Īharaira ki te hoari a Paraama tama a Peoro, te tohunga māori, i roto i ērā atu o tō rātou parekura. 23 Ā, ko te rohe ki ngā tama a Reupena ko Horano, me tōna rohe anō. Ko te wāhi tūturu tēnei i ngā tama a Reupena, i ō rātou hapū, ngā pā me ngā kāinga o aua pā.

Te Rohe a Kara

24 Ā, i hoatu anō e Mohi he wāhi ki te iwi o Kara, ki ngā tama a Kara, he mea whakarite ki ō rātou hapū:

25 Ā, ko te rohe ki a rātou ko Iatere, me ngā pā katoa o Kireara, me te hāwhe o te whenua o ngā tama a Āmona, ā tae noa ki Aroere ki te ritenga atu o Rapa; 26 i Hehepona hoki ā tae noa ki Ramata Mihipe, ki Petonimi; i Mahanaima ā tae noa ki te rohe o Repiri. 27 Ā, i te raorao, ko Petearama, ko Petenimira, ko Hukota, ko Tawhono, ā, ko te toenga atu o te kīngitanga o Hihona, o te kīngi o Hehepona, ko Horano me tōna rohe tae noa ki te pito o te moana o Kinereta, i tāwāhi o Horano, whaka te rāwhiti. 28 Ko te wāhi tupu tēnei i ngā tama a Kara, i ō rātou hapū, ko ngā pā me ngā kāinga o aua pā.

Te Rohe a te Hapū o Manahi ki te Rawhiti

29 Ā, i hoatu e Mohi he wāhi tūturu ki tētahi tānga o te iwi o Mānahi; ā, ka riro i tētahi tānga o te iwi o ngā tama a Mānahi, he mea whakarite ki ō rātou hapū: 30 Ā, nō Mahanaima atu te rohe ki a rātou, ko Pahana katoa me te kīngitanga katoa o Oka, o te kīngi o Pahana, me ngā pā katoa o Haira, ērā i Pahana rā, e ono tekau ngā pā; 31 ko tētahi hāwhe o Kireara, me Ahataroto, me Eterei, ko ngā pā o te kīngitanga o Oka i Pahana, i riro ērā i ngā tama a Makiri, a te tama a Mānahi, arā i tētahi tānga o ngā tama a Makiri, he mea whakarite ki ō rātou hapū.

32 Ko ēnei ngā wāhi i hoatu ai e Mohi hei kāinga tupu i ngā mānia o Moapa i tāwāhi o Horano whaka te rāwhiti, i te wāhi e anga ana ki Heriko. 33 Otiia kīhai i hoatu e Mohi he wāhi tupu ki te iwi o Rīwai: ko Ihowā, ko te Atua o Īharaira, ko ia hei wāhi tupu mō rātou; ko tāna hoki tēnā i kōrero ai.
