¹Zvino Jehovha akataura naMozisi, akati,

¹And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,

²Raira vana vaIsiraeri, uti kwavari, Kana masvika munyika yeKanani (ndiyo nyika ichava nhaka yenyu, iyo nyika yeKanani, kusvikira kumiganhu yayo,)

²`Command the sons of Israel, and thou hast said unto them, When ye are coming in unto the land of Canaan — this [is] the land which falleth to you by inheritance, the land of Canaan, by its borders —

³rutivi rwenyu rwezasi runofanira kutanga murenje reZini ruchienda nokurutivi rweEdhomu; muganhu wenyu wezasi uchatanga pamuuyu weGungwa roMunyu, uchienda kumabvazuva;

³then hath the south quarter been to you from the wilderness of Zin, by the sides of Edom, yea, the south border hath been to you from the extremity of the Salt Sea, eastward;

⁴zvino muganhu wenyu upote nechezasi kwegomo reAkirabhimu, ndokupfuurira kuZini, ugobuda nechezasi kweKadheshi-bharinea; zvino upfuure kuHazari-adhari, ugondosvika Azimoni;

⁴and the border hath turned round to you from the south to the ascent of Akrabbim, and hath passed on to Zin, and its outgoings have been from the south to Kadesh-Barnea, and it hath gone out at Hazar-Addar, and hath passed on to Azmon;

⁵zvino muganhu unofanira kupota uchitanga paAzimoni, kusvika kurukova rweEgipita, ndokubuda paGungwa.

⁵and the border hath turned round from Azmon to the brook of Egypt, and its outgoings have been at the sea.

⁶Muganhu wenyu wokumavirazuva ndiro Gungwa Guru nenyika yaro; ndiwo muganhu wokumavirazuva.

⁶`As to the west border, even the great sea hath been to you a border; this is to you the west border.

⁷Ndiwo muganhu wenyu wokumusoro: Kubva paGungwa Guru munofanira kutara muganhu wenyu kusvika pagomo reHori;

⁷`And this is to you the north border: from the great sea ye mark out for yourselves mount Hor;

⁸kubva paHori munofanira kutara muganhu wenyu kusvika pavanopinda paHamati, muganhu ugondogumira paZedhadhi.

⁸from mount Hor ye mark out to go in to Hamath, and the outgoings of the border have been to Zedad;

⁹Zvino muganhu upfuurire kusvika paZifuroni, ugondoguma paHazari-enani; ndiwo muganhu wenyu wokumusoro.

⁹and the border hath gone out to Ziphron, and its outgoings have been at Hazar-Enan; this is to you the north border.

¹⁰Munofanira kutarawo muganhu wenyu wokumabvazuva, kubva paHazari-enani kusvika paShefami.

¹⁰`And ye have marked out for yourselves for the border eastward, from Hazar-Enan to Shepham;

¹¹Kubva paShefami muganhu uburukire Ribhira, kumabvazuva kweAini; zvino muganhu uburuke, ugondosvika kurutivi rwegungwa reKinereti kumabvazuva;

¹¹and the border hath gone down from Shepham to Riblah, on the east of Ain, and the border hath gone down, and hath smitten against the shoulder of the sea of Chinnereth eastward;

¹²zvino muganhu uburukire kuJoridhani, ugondoguma paGungwa roMunyu; ndiyo ichava nyika yenyu nemiganhu yayo kunhivi dzose.

¹²and the border hath gone down to the Jordan, and its outgoings have been at the Salt Sea; this is for you the land by its borders round about.`

¹³Mozisi akaraira vana vaIsiraeri, akati, Ndiyo nyika yamuchapiwa nemijenya ive nhaka yenyu, yakarairwa naJehovha kuti ipiwe marudzi mapfumbamwe nehafu;

¹³And Moses commandeth the sons of Israel, saying, `This [is] the land which ye inherit by lot, which Jehovah hath commanded to give to the nine tribes and the half of the tribe;

¹⁴nekuti rudzi rwavana vaRubheni, nedzimba dzamadzibaba avo, norudzi rwavana vaGadhi, nedzimba dzamadzibaba avo, vatopiwa havo, nehafu yorudzi rwaManase vatopiwa havo nhaka yavo;

¹⁴for the tribe of the sons of Reuben have received, by the house of their fathers; and the tribe of the children of Gad, by the house of their fathers; and the half of the tribe of Manasseh have received their inheritance;

¹⁵marudzi awa maviri nehafu akapiwa nhaka yawo nechemhiri kwaJoroclhani paJeriko, kumabvazuva kunobuda zuva nako.

¹⁵the two tribes and the half of the tribe have received their inheritance beyond the Jordan, [near] Jericho, eastward, at the [sun]-rising.`

¹⁶Zvino Jehovha akataura naMozisi, akati,

¹⁶And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,

¹⁷Ndiwo mazita avarume vanofanira kukugoverai nyika kuti ive nhaka yenyu: Ereazari mupristi, naJoshua, mwanakomana waNuni.

¹⁷`These [are] the names of the men who give to you the inheritance of the land: Eleazar the priest, and Joshua son of Nun,

¹⁸Munofanira kutsaurawo muchinda mumwe kurudzi rumwe norumwe kugovera nyika ive nhaka yenyu.

¹⁸and one prince — one prince — for a tribe ye do take to give the land by inheritance.

¹⁹Ndiwo mazita avarume ivavo: Kurudzi rwaJudha, Karebhu, mwanakomana waJefune;
