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¶ Na ka huihui te whakaminenga katoa o nga tama a Iharaira ki Hiro, a whakaturia ana e ratou ki reira te tapenakara o te whakaminenga: a i taea hoki te whenua e ratou.

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

²¶ Na ka toe e whitu nga iwi o nga tama a Iharaira, kahore nei i wehea to ratou kainga tupu ki a ratou.

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?

³Na ka mea a Hohua ki nga tama a Iharaira, Kia pehea ake te roa o to koutou nei mangere ki te haere ki te tango i te whenua kua hoatu nei ki a koutou e Ihowa, e te Atua o o koutou matua?

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.

⁴Whakaritea mo koutou kia tokotoru mo ia iwi: a maku ratou e tono, a ka whakatika ratou, ka haere i te whenua, a ka tuhituhi kia rite ki o ratou wahi; a ka haere mai ai ratou ki ahau.

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.

⁵Me wehe hoki e ratou kia whitu nga wahi: me noho a Hura ki tona wahi ki te tonga, me noho ano hoki te whare o Hohepa ki tona wahi ki te raki.

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.

⁶Na me tuhituhi e koutou te whenua kia whitu nga wahi, ka kawe mai ai i te pukapuka ki ahau ki konei, a maku e maka o koutou rota ki konei ki te aroaro o Ihowa, o to tatou Atua.

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.

⁷Otira kahore he wahi mo nga Riwaiti i roto i a koutou; ko te mahi tohunga ki a Ihowa te wahi mo ratou: a ko Kara, ko Reupena, ko tetahi taanga hoki o te iwi o Manahi, kua whiwhi ratou ki to ratou wahi i tawahi o Horano whaka te rawhiti, ki ta Moh i, ki ta te pononga a Ihowa i hoatu ai ki a ratou.

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.

⁸Na ka whakatika aua tangata, a ka haere: a i whakahau a Hohua i te hunga i haere ki te tuhituhi i te whenua, i mea, Turia atu, haereerea hoki te whenua, tuhituhia hoki, ka hoki mai ai ki ahau, a maku e maka o koutou rota ki konei, ki te aroaro o Ihowa, ki Hiro.

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.

⁹Na ka turia atu e aua tangata, ka haere a puta noa te whenua, a tuhituhia iho e ratou ki te pukapuka, e whitu nga wahi, he mea whakaaro ki nga pa, a haere ana ki a Hohua, ki te puni ki Hiro.

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.

¹⁰A maka ana e Hohua he rota mo ratou i Hiro, i te aroaro o Ihowa: na ka wehea e Hohua te whenua i reira mo nga tama a Iharaira, kia rite ki o ratou wehenga.

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¶ I puta ake te rota o te iwi o nga tama a Pineamine, ara o o ratou hapu: i haere te rohe o to ratou wahi i te takiwa o to nga tama a Hura, o to nga tama a Hohepa.

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.

¹²A ko to ratou rohe ki te taha ki te raki i Horano; na i haere te rohe ki runga, ki te taha o Heriko, ki te raki, a i haere whakarunga, na te whenua pukepuke whaka te hauauru, a puta tonu atu i te koraha o Peteawene.

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.

¹³A i tika atu te rohe i reira ki Rutu, ki te taha o Rutu, ara ki Peteere whaka te tonga; na i anga whakararo te rohe ki Ataroto Arara, tatu tonu ki te pukepuke e tu ana i te tonga o Petehorono ki raro.

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.

¹⁴Na ka whakatakotoria atu te rohe, a ka wahio haere ma te taha hauauru whaka te tonga, atu i te pukepuke e tu ana i te ritenga atu o Petehorono whaka te tonga; a ko ona putanga i Kiriatapaara, ara i Kiriata Tearimi, he pa no nga tama a Hura: ko t e taha tenei ki te hauauru.

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:

¹⁵A ko te taha ki te tonga i te pito rawa o Kiriata Tearimi, a i puta atu te rohe whaka te hauauru, a puta tonu atu ki te puna wai i Nepetoa:

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,

¹⁶A i anga whakararo te rohe ki te pito rawa o te maunga e tu ana i mua i te raorao o te tama a Hinomo, ki tera i te raorao o Repaima whaka te raki; na i heke ki te raorao o Hinimo, ki te taha o te Iepuhi ki te tonga, a i heke ki Enerokere;

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,

¹⁷Na i whakatakotoria atu te raki. a ka puta atu ki Enehemehe, a ka puta atu ki Keriroto, ki te ritenga atu o te pinakitanga ki Arumine; a heke noa ki te kohatu o Pohana, o te tama o Reupena,

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

¹⁸Na i haere tonu i te tahi ki te raki ki te ritenga atu o Arapa, a i heke tonu atu ki Arapa;

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.

¹⁹Na i here tonu te rohe ki te taha ki te raki o Petehokora: a i pakaru rawa atu te rohe ki te kokoru whaka te raki o te Moana Toto i te pito ki te tonga o Horano: ko te rohe tenei ki te tonga.

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.

²⁰A ko Horano tona rohe i te taha ki te rawhiti. Ko te kainga tupu tenei o nga tama a Pineamine, ko nga rohe hoki o reira a tawhio noa, ara o o ratou hapu.

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

²¹Na, ko nga pa o te iwi o nga tama a Pineamine, o o ratou hapu, ko Heriko, ko Petehokora, me Emekeketiti;

²²And Betharabah, and Zemaraim, and Bethel,

²²Ko Petearapa, ko Temaraima, ko Peteere;

²³And Avim, and Pharah, and Ophrah,

²³Ko Awimi, ko Paraha, ko Opora;

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

²⁴Ko Kepara Hamonai, ko Oponi, ko Kepa: kotahi tekau ma rua nga pa me nga kainga o aua pa:

²⁵Gibeon, and Ramah, and Beeroth,

²⁵Ko Kipeono, ko Rama, ko Peeroto;

²⁶And Mizpeh, and Chephirah, and Mozah,

²⁶Ko Mihipe, ko Kepira, ko Motaha;

²⁷And Rekem, and Irpeel, and Taralah,

²⁷Ko Rekeme, ko Iripeere, ko Tarara;

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.

²⁸Ko Heraha, ko Erepe, ko Iepuhi, ara ko Hiruharama, ko Kipeata, ko Kiriata; kotahi tekau ma wha nga pa me nga kainga. Ko te kainga tupu tenei o nga tama a Pineamine, o o ratou hapu.
