¹And the whole congregation of the children of Israel assembled together at Shiloh, and set up the tabernacle of the congregation there. And the land was subdued before them.

¹[Ny nananganana ny tabernakely tao Silo, sy nanoratana ny tany sisa tsy mbola voazara]Dia nivory tao Silo ny fiangonana, dia ny Zanak'Isiraely rehetra, ka nanangana ny trano-lay fihaonana tao. Ary ny tany dia resy teo anoloany.

²And there remained among the children of Israel seven tribes, which had not yet received their inheritance.

²Ary nisy firenena fito tamin'ny Zanak'Isiraely tsy mbola nahazo ny lovany.

³And Joshua said unto the children of Israel, How long are ye slack to go to possess the land, which the LORD God of your fathers hath given you?

³Dia hoy Josoa tamin'ny Zanak'Isiraely: Mandra-pahoviana no hiahotrahoranareo tsy hiditra handova ny tany, izay omen'i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny razanareo, anareo ?

⁴Give out from among you three men for each tribe: and I will send them, and they shall rise, and go through the land, and describe it according to the inheritance of them; and they shall come again to me.

⁴Mandoava telo lahy avy isam-pirenena, dia haniraka azy aho, ary hiainga izy ka handeha hitety ny tany ka hanoratra azy araka ny ho lovany, dia hiverina atỳ amiko.

⁵And they shall divide it into seven parts: Judah shall abide in their coast on the south, and the house of Joseph shall abide in their coasts on the north.

⁵Ary hizafa azy ho fito toko izy; ny Joda hitoetra any amin'ny taniny ao atsimo, ary ny taranak'i Josefa hitoetra any amin'ny taniny ao avaratra.

⁶Ye shall therefore describe the land into seven parts, and bring the description hither to me, that I may cast lots for you here before the LORD our God.

⁶Ary soratinareo ny tany ka ataovy fito toko; ary ento atỳ amiko ny soratra, dia hanao filokana ho anareo eto anatrehan'i Jehovah Andriamanitsika aho.

⁷But the Levites have no part among you; for the priesthood of the LORD is their inheritance: and Gad, and Reuben, and half the tribe of Manasseh, have received their inheritance beyond Jordan on the east, which Moses the servant of the LORD gave them.

⁷Fa tsy mba manana anjara eo aminareo ny Levita; fa ny fisoronana amin'i Jehovah no lovany; ary Gada sy Robena sy ny antsasaky ny firenen'i Manase efa nahazo ny lovany any an-dafy atsinanan'i Jordana, izay nomen'i Mosesy, mpanompon'i Jehovah, azy.

⁸And the men arose, and went away: and Joshua charged them that went to describe the land, saying, Go and walk through the land, and describe it, and come again to me, that I may here cast lots for you before the LORD in Shiloh.

⁸Dia niainga ireo lehilahy ireo ka nandeha; ary Josoa nandidy izay nandeha hanoratra ny tany ka nanao hoe: Mandehana nitety ny tany, ka soraty izy, dia miverena atỳ amiko, ka eto Silo no hanaovako filokana ho anareo eo anatrehan'i Jehovah.

⁹And the men went and passed through the land, and described it by cities into seven parts in a book, and came again to Joshua to the host at Shiloh.

⁹Dia lasa ireo lehilahy ireo ka nandeha nitety ny tany, dia nanoratra azy tamin'ny taratasy, ka nataony fito toko, araka ny tanàna, ary dia tafaverina tany amin'i Josoa tao an-toby tao Silo izy.

¹⁰And Joshua cast lots for them in Shiloh before the LORD: and there Joshua divided the land unto the children of Israel according to their divisions.

¹⁰Ary Josoa dia nanao filokana ho azy tao Silo teo anatrehan'i Jehovah; ary tao no nizaran'i Josoa ny tany ho an'ny Zanak'Isiraely araka ny fizarany.

¹¹And the lot of the tribe of the children of Benjamin came up according to their families: and the coast of their lot came forth between the children of Judah and the children of Joseph.

¹¹[Ny nizarana ny tany sisa andrefan'i Jordana: Ny anjaran'ny Benjamina, ny Simeona, ny Zebolona, ny Isakara, ny Asera, ny Naftaly sy ny Dana. Ny tany nomena an'i Josoa] Dia nahazo ny loka ny firenena taranak'i Benjamina isam-pokony; ary ny faritry ny tany azony dia teo anelanelan'ny taranak'i Joda sy ny taranak'i Josefa.

¹²And their border on the north side was from Jordan; and the border went up to the side of Jericho on the north side, and went up through the mountains westward; and the goings out thereof were at the wilderness of Bethaven.

¹²Ary ny fari-taniny amin'ny lafiny avaratra dia hatrany Jordana ka niakatra hatramin'ny ilan'i Jeriko amin'ny avaratra, dia niakatra niankandrefana nahazo ny tany havoana, ka dia nihatra tamin'ny efitr'i Betavena,

¹³And the border went over from thence toward Luz, to the side of Luz, which is Bethel, southward; and the border descended to Atarothadar, near the hill that lieth on the south side of the nether Bethhoron.

¹³hatreo dia nandroso hatrany Lozy, hatramin'ny ilany atsimon'i Lozy (Betela izany), dia nidina hatrany Atarot-adara ao amin'ny tendrombohitra atsimon'i Beti-horona ambany,

¹⁴And the border was drawn thence, and compassed the corner of the sea southward, from the hill that lieth before Bethhoron southward; and the goings out thereof were at Kirjathbaal, which is Kirjathjearim, a city of the children of Judah: this was the west quarter.

¹⁴dia niolaka tamin'ny lafiny andrefana ka nianatsimo hatramin'ny tendrombohitra izay eo anoloan'i Beti-horona eo atsimo, ka dia nihatra any Kiriata-bala (Kiriata-jearima izany), tanànan'ny taranak'i Joda; izany no lafiny andrefana.

¹⁵And the south quarter was from the end of Kirjathjearim, and the border went out on the west, and went out to the well of waters of Nephtoah:

¹⁵Ary ny lafiny atsimo dia hatramin'ny faran'i Kiriata-jearima; ary ny fari-tany dia nandroso niankandrefana ka nihatra tamin'ny loharanon'i Neftoa,

¹⁶And the border came down to the end of the mountain that lieth before the valley of the son of Hinnom, and which is in the valley of the giants on the north, and descended to the valley of Hinnom, to the side of Jebusi on the south, and descended to Enrogel,

¹⁶dia nidina hatramin'ny faran'ny tendrombohitra, izay tandrifin'ny lohasahan'ny taranak'i Hinoma, eo amin'ny Lohasahan'ny Refaita eo avaratra, ka nidina hatramin'ny lohasahan'i Hinoma, hatramin'ny ilany atsimon'ny Jebosita, ka nidina hatrany En-rogela,

¹⁷And was drawn from the north, and went forth to Enshemesh, and went forth toward Geliloth, which is over against the going up of Adummim, and descended to the stone of Bohan the son of Reuben,

¹⁷dia nizotra avy any avaratra ka nandroso hatrany En-semesy sy Gelilota, izay tandrifin'ny fiakarana Adomima, ka nidina hatramin'ny vaton'i Bohana, zanak'i Robena,

¹⁸And passed along toward the side over against Arabah northward, and went down unto Arabah:

¹⁸dia nandroso hatramin'ny ilany avaratra tandrifin'ny tani-hay ka nidina hatrany amin'ny tani-hay.

¹⁹And the border passed along to the side of Bethhoglah northward: and the outgoings of the border were at the north bay of the salt sea at the south end of Jordan: this was the south coast.

¹⁹dia nandroso hatramin'ny ilany avaratr'i Beti-hogla, ka dia nihatra tamin'ny helo-drano avaratra amin'ny Ranomasin-tsira, eo amin'ny farany atsimo amin'i Jordana; izany no lafiny atsimo. [Heb. Arabà]

²⁰And Jordan was the border of it on the east side. This was the inheritance of the children of Benjamin, by the coasts thereof round about, according to their families.

²⁰Ary Jordana no fari-taniny atsinanana. Izany no lovan'ny taranak'i Benjamina amin'ny fari-taniny manodidina araka ny fokony.

²¹Now the cities of the tribe of the children of Benjamin according to their families were Jericho, and Bethhoglah, and the valley of Keziz,

²¹Ary ny tanànan'ny firenena taranak'i Benjamina araka ny fokony dia Jeriko sy Beti-hogla ary ny lohasahan'i Keziza

²²And Betharabah, and Zemaraim, and Bethel,

²²sy Bet-arabà sy Zemaraima sy Betela

²³And Avim, and Pharah, and Ophrah,

²³sy Avima sy Para sy Ofra

²⁴And Chepharhaammonai, and Ophni, and Gaba; twelve cities with their villages:

²⁴sy Kefara-hamony sy Ofny sy Geba: tanàna roa ambin'ny folo sy ny zana-bohiny;

²⁵Gibeon, and Ramah, and Beeroth,

²⁵sy Gibeona sy Rama sy Berota

²⁶And Mizpeh, and Chephirah, and Mozah,

²⁶sy Mizpa sy Kefira sy Moza

²⁷And Rekem, and Irpeel, and Taralah,

²⁷sy Rekema sy Iripela sy Taralasy Zela sy Elefa sy ny Jebosita (Jerosalema izany) sy Gibea sy Kiriata: tanàna efatra ambin'ny folo sy ny zana-bohiny. Izany no lovan'ny taranak'i Benjamina araka ny fokony.[Na: ny havoan'i Kiriata]

²⁸And Zelah, Eleph, and Jebusi, which is Jerusalem, Gibeath, and Kirjath; fourteen cities with their villages. This is the inheritance of the children of Benjamin according to their families.

²⁸sy Zela sy Elefa sy ny Jebosita (Jerosalema izany) sy Gibea sy Kiriata: tanàna efatra ambin'ny folo sy ny zana-bohiny. Izany no lovan'ny taranak'i Benjamina araka ny fokony.[Na: ny havoan'i Kiriata]
