Land Still to Be Taken

13 When Joshua had grown old,(A) the Lord said to him, “You are now very old, and there are still very large areas of land to be taken over.

“This is the land that remains: all the regions of the Philistines(B) and Geshurites,(C) from the Shihor River(D) on the east of Egypt to the territory of Ekron(E) on the north, all of it counted as Canaanite though held by the five Philistine rulers(F) in Gaza, Ashdod,(G) Ashkelon,(H) Gath and Ekron; the territory of the Avvites(I) on the south; all the land of the Canaanites, from Arah of the Sidonians as far as Aphek(J) and the border of the Amorites;(K) the area of Byblos;(L) and all Lebanon(M) to the east, from Baal Gad below Mount Hermon(N) to Lebo Hamath.(O)

“As for all the inhabitants of the mountain regions from Lebanon to Misrephoth Maim,(P) that is, all the Sidonians, I myself will drive them out(Q) before the Israelites. Be sure to allocate this land to Israel for an inheritance, as I have instructed you,(R) and divide it as an inheritance(S) among the nine tribes and half of the tribe of Manasseh.”

Division of the Land East of the Jordan

The other half of Manasseh,[a] the Reubenites and the Gadites had received the inheritance that Moses had given them east of the Jordan, as he, the servant of the Lord, had assigned(T) it to them.(U)

It extended from Aroer(V) on the rim of the Arnon Gorge, and from the town in the middle of the gorge, and included the whole plateau(W) of Medeba as far as Dibon,(X) 10 and all the towns of Sihon king of the Amorites, who ruled in Heshbon,(Y) out to the border of the Ammonites.(Z) 11 It also included Gilead,(AA) the territory of the people of Geshur and Maakah, all of Mount Hermon and all Bashan as far as Salekah(AB) 12 that is, the whole kingdom of Og in Bashan,(AC) who had reigned in Ashtaroth(AD) and Edrei.(AE) (He was the last of the Rephaites.(AF)) Moses had defeated them and taken over their land.(AG) 13 But the Israelites did not drive out the people of Geshur(AH) and Maakah,(AI) so they continue to live among the Israelites to this day.(AJ)

14 But to the tribe of Levi he gave no inheritance, since the food offerings presented to the Lord, the God of Israel, are their inheritance, as he promised them.(AK)

15 This is what Moses had given to the tribe of Reuben, according to its clans:

16 The territory from Aroer(AL) on the rim of the Arnon Gorge, and from the town in the middle of the gorge, and the whole plateau past Medeba(AM) 17 to Heshbon and all its towns on the plateau,(AN) including Dibon,(AO) Bamoth Baal,(AP) Beth Baal Meon,(AQ) 18 Jahaz,(AR) Kedemoth,(AS) Mephaath,(AT) 19 Kiriathaim,(AU) Sibmah,(AV) Zereth Shahar on the hill in the valley, 20 Beth Peor,(AW) the slopes of Pisgah, and Beth Jeshimoth— 21 all the towns on the plateau(AX) and the entire realm of Sihon king of the Amorites, who ruled at Heshbon. Moses had defeated him and the Midianite chiefs,(AY) Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur and Reba(AZ)—princes allied with Sihon—who lived in that country. 22 In addition to those slain in battle, the Israelites had put to the sword Balaam son of Beor,(BA) who practiced divination.(BB) 23 The boundary of the Reubenites was the bank of the Jordan. These towns and their villages were the inheritance of the Reubenites, according to their clans.(BC)

24 This is what Moses had given to the tribe of Gad, according to its clans:

25 The territory of Jazer,(BD) all the towns of Gilead(BE) and half the Ammonite country as far as Aroer, near Rabbah;(BF) 26 and from Heshbon(BG) to Ramath Mizpah and Betonim, and from Mahanaim(BH) to the territory of Debir;(BI) 27 and in the valley, Beth Haram, Beth Nimrah,(BJ) Sukkoth(BK) and Zaphon(BL) with the rest of the realm of Sihon king of Heshbon (the east side of the Jordan, the territory up to the end of the Sea of Galilee[b](BM)). 28 These towns and their villages were the inheritance of the Gadites,(BN) according to their clans.

29 This is what Moses had given to the half-tribe of Manasseh, that is, to half the family of the descendants of Manasseh, according to its clans:

30 The territory extending from Mahanaim(BO) and including all of Bashan,(BP) the entire realm of Og king of Bashan(BQ)—all the settlements of Jair(BR) in Bashan, sixty towns, 31 half of Gilead, and Ashtaroth and Edrei (the royal cities of Og in Bashan).(BS) This was for the descendants of Makir(BT) son of Manasseh—for half of the sons of Makir, according to their clans.(BU)

32 This is the inheritance Moses had given when he was in the plains of Moab(BV) across the Jordan east of Jericho.(BW) 33 But to the tribe of Levi, Moses had given no inheritance;(BX) the Lord, the God of Israel, is their inheritance,(BY) as he promised them.(BZ)

Land still unconquered

13 Now Joshua had reached old age. The Lord said to him, “You have reached old age, but much of the land remains to be taken over. This is the land that remains: All the districts of the Philistines and all those of the Geshurites. (The land stretching from the Shihor near Egypt northward as far as the Ekron territory is considered to be Canaanite. There are five rulers of the Philistines, for Gaza, Ashdod, Ashkelon, Gath, and Ekron.) The land of the Avvites in the south. The whole land of the Canaanites, along with Mearah, which belongs to the Sidonians, as far as Aphek and as far as the Amorite border. The land of the Gebalites and the whole Lebanon eastward, stretching from Baal-gad at the foot of Mount Hermon to Lebo-hamath.

“I myself will remove the entire population of the highlands from Lebanon to Misrephoth-maim before the Israelites, that is, all the Sidonians. You have only to allot it to Israel as a legacy exactly as I commanded you. So now divide up this land as a legacy for the nine tribes and half the tribe of Manasseh. You will give it out from the Jordan to the Mediterranean Sea in the west. The Mediterranean Sea is the border.[a]

Land east of the Jordan

As for the other half of the tribe of Manasseh,[b] the Reubenites and Gadites together with it had already taken their legacy that Moses had given them on the east side of the Jordan. It was exactly what Moses the Lord’s servant had given them. It ran from Aroer by the rim of the Arnon Valley and the city in the middle of the valley through the whole Medeba plateau as far as Dibon. 10 It included all the cities of the Amorites’ King Sihon, who ruled in Heshbon, as far as the Ammonite border. 11 It also included Gilead and the territory of the Geshurites and Maacathites, all Mount Hermon, and all Bashan as far as Salecah— 12 the entire kingdom of Og in Bashan, who ruled in Ashtaroth and in Edrei. He survived as the last of the Rephaim. Moses had struck down and removed them. 13 But the Israelites didn’t remove the Geshurites or the Maacathites. So Geshur and Maacath still live among Israel today. 14 It was only to the tribe of Levi that he gave no legacy. Their legacy consists of the fire offerings for the Lord, the God of Israel, exactly as he had promised them.

For Reuben

15 Moses provided for the clans of the Reubenite tribe. 16 Their territory ran from Aroer by the rim of the Arnon Valley and the city in the middle of the ravine, and the whole plateau as far as Medeba. 17 It included Heshbon and all its cities that are on the plateau: Dibon, Bamoth-baal, Beth-baal-meon, 18 Jahaz, Kedemoth, Mephaath, 19 Kiriathaim, Sibmah, the Zereth-shahar highlands, 20 Beth-peor, the slopes of Pisgah, and Beth-jeshimoth. 21 It included all the cities of the plateau and the whole kingdom of Sihon king of the Amorites, who ruled in Heshbon. Moses had struck him down, along with Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur, and Reba, the leaders of Midian. They had lived in the land as princes of Sihon. 22 In addition to those others slain, the Israelites killed the fortune-teller Balaam, Beor’s son, with the sword. 23 The border of the people of Reuben was the Jordan and the territory next to it. This was the legacy of the people of Reuben—for their clans, their cities, and their settlements.

For Gad

24 Moses provided for the clans of the Gadite tribe. 25 Their territory was Jazer, all the cities of Gilead, and half the land of the Ammonites as far as Aroer near Rabbah. 26 It also ran from Heshbon as far as Ramath-mizpeh and Betonim, and from Mahanaim as far as the territory of Lidebir. 27 In the valley were Beth-haram, Beth-nimrah, Succoth, and Zaphon. This was the rest of the kingdom of Sihon king of Heshbon. It included the Jordan and the territory next to it up to the tip of the Chinnereth Sea on the east side of the Jordan. 28 This was the legacy of the Gadites—for their clans, their cities, and their settlements.

For half of Manasseh

29 Moses provided for half the tribe of Manasseh. It was for the clans in half the tribe of the people of Manasseh. 30 Their territory ran from Mahanaim, all Bashan, the whole kingdom of Og king of Bashan, and all sixty of the tent villages of Jair that are in Bashan. 31 Half of Gilead along with Ashtaroth and Edrei, cities of the kingdom of Og in Bashan, belonged to the people of Machir son of Manasseh. It belonged to the clans for half of the people of Machir.

32 Moses assigned these territories when he was in the Moab plains on the other side of the Jordan, east of Jericho. 33 But Moses gave no legacy to the tribe of Levi. The Lord God of Israel is their legacy, exactly as he promised them.

13 Josué était vieux, avancé en âge. L'Éternel lui dit alors: Tu es devenu vieux, tu es avancé en âge, et le pays qui te reste à soumettre est très grand.

Voici le pays qui reste: tous les districts des Philistins et tout le territoire des Gueschuriens,

depuis le Schichor qui coule devant l'Égypte jusqu'à la frontière d'Ékron au nord, contrée qui doit être tenue pour cananéenne, et qui est occupée par les cinq princes des Philistins, celui de Gaza, celui d'Asdod, celui d'Askalon, celui de Gath et celui d'Ékron, et par les Avviens;

à partir du midi, tout le pays des Cananéens, et Meara qui est aux Sidoniens, jusqu'à Aphek, jusqu'à la frontière des Amoréens;

le pays des Guibliens, et tout le Liban vers le soleil levant, depuis Baal Gad au pied de la montagne d'Hermon jusqu'à l'entrée de Hamath;

tous les habitants de la montagne, depuis le Liban jusqu'à Misrephoth Maïm, tous les Sidoniens. Je les chasserai devant les enfants d'Israël. Donne seulement ce pays en héritage par le sort à Israël, comme je te l'ai prescrit;

et divise maintenant ce pays par portions entre les neuf tribus et la demi-tribu de Manassé.

Les Rubénites et les Gadites, avec l'autre moitié de la tribu de Manassé, ont reçu leur héritage, que Moïse leur a donné de l'autre côté du Jourdain, à l'orient, comme le leur a donné Moïse, serviteur de l'Éternel:

depuis Aroër sur les bords du torrent de l'Arnon, et depuis la ville qui est au milieu de la vallée, toute la plaine de Médeba, jusqu'à Dibon;

10 toutes les villes de Sihon, roi des Amoréens, qui régnait à Hesbon, jusqu'à la frontière des enfants d'Ammon;

11 Galaad, le territoire des Gueschuriens et des Maacathiens, toute la montagne d'Hermon, et tout Basan, jusqu'à Salca;

12 tout le royaume d'Og en Basan, qui régnait à Aschtaroth et à Édréï, et qui était le seul reste des Rephaïm. Moïse battit ces rois, et les chassa.

13 Mais les enfants d'Israël ne chassèrent point les Gueschuriens et les Maacathiens, qui ont habité au milieu d'Israël jusqu'à ce jour.

14 La tribu de Lévi fut la seule à laquelle Moïse ne donna point d'héritage; les sacrifices consumés par le feu devant l'Éternel, le Dieu d'Israël, tel fut son héritage, comme il le lui avait dit.

15 Moïse avait donné à la tribu des fils de Ruben une part selon leurs familles.

16 Ils eurent pour territoire, à partir d'Aroër sur les bords du torrent d'Arnon, et de la ville qui est au milieu de la vallée, toute la plaine près de Médeba,

17 Hesbon et toutes ses villes dans la plaine, Dibon, Bamoth Baal, Beth Baal Meon,

18 Jahats, Kedémoth, Méphaath,

19 Kirjathaïm, Sibma, Tséreth Haschachar sur la montagne de la vallée,

20 Beth Peor, les coteaux du Pisga, Beth Jeschimoth,

21 toutes les villes de la plaine, et tout le royaume de Sihon, roi des Amoréens, qui régnait à Hesbon: Moïse l'avait battu, lui et les princes de Madian, Évi, Rékem, Tsur, Hur et Réba, princes qui relevaient de Sihon et qui habitaient dans le pays.

22 Parmi ceux que tuèrent les enfants d'Israël, ils avaient aussi fait périr avec l'épée le devin Balaam, fils de Beor.

23 Le Jourdain servait de limite au territoire des fils de Ruben. Voilà l'héritage des fils de Ruben selon leurs familles; les villes et leurs villages.

24 Moïse avait donné à la tribu de Gad, aux fils de Gad, une part selon leurs familles.

25 Ils eurent pour territoire Jaezer, toutes les villes de Galaad, la moitié du pays des enfants d'Ammon jusqu'à Aroër vis-à-vis de Rabba,

26 depuis Hesbon jusqu'à Ramath Mitspé et Bethonim, depuis Mahanaïm jusqu'à la frontière de Debir,

27 et, dans la vallée, Beth Haram, Beth Nimra, Succoth et Tsaphon, reste du royaume de Sihon, roi de Hesbon, ayant le Jourdain pour limite jusqu'à l'extrémité de la mer de Kinnéreth de l'autre côté du Jourdain, à l'orient.

28 Voilà l'héritage des fils de Gad selon leurs familles; les villes et leurs villages.

29 Moïse avait donné à la demi-tribu de Manassé, aux fils de Manassé, une part selon leurs familles.

30 Ils eurent pour territoire, à partir de Mahanaïm, tout Basan, tout le royaume d'Og, roi de Basan, et tous les bourgs de Jaïr en Basan, soixante villes.

31 La moitié de Galaad, Aschtaroth et Édréï, villes du royaume d'Og en Basan, échurent aux fils de Makir, fils de Manassé, à la moitié des fils de Makir, selon leurs familles.

32 Telles sont les parts que fit Moïse, lorsqu'il était dans les plaines de Moab, de l'autre côté du Jourdain, vis-à-vis de Jéricho, à l'orient.

33 Moïse ne donna point d'héritage à la tribu de Lévi; l'Éternel, le Dieu d'Israël, tel fut son héritage, comme il le lui avait dit.

尚未攻取之地

13 約書亞年事已高,耶和華對他說:「你年紀大了,但還有許多地方有待征服, 就是非利士人和基述人的全境, 即從埃及東面的西曷河直到北面以革倫的邊境,這一帶都算是迦南,是統治迦薩人、亞實突人、亞實基倫人、迦特人、以革倫人的五個非利士王的地方;南方亞衛人的地方; 整個迦南人的地方,從西頓人的米亞拉直到亞摩利人邊境的亞弗; 迦巴勒人的地方;以及東從黑門山山麓的巴力·迦得直到哈馬口的整個黎巴嫩。 我必為以色列人趕走從黎巴嫩到米斯利弗·瑪音一帶山區的西頓人。你只管照我的吩咐,把這些土地分給以色列人作產業, 分給其他九個支派和瑪拿西半個支派作產業。」

約旦河東土地的分配

瑪拿西半個支派和呂便、迦得兩支派已經得到耶和華的僕人摩西在約旦河東分給他們的產業: 從亞嫩谷旁的亞羅珥起,包括谷中的城,直到底本的整個米底巴平原, 10 以及希實本的亞摩利王西宏統治的各城,直到亞捫的邊境。 11 此外,還包括基列、基述人和瑪迦人的疆域、整個黑門山和直到撒迦的整個巴珊地, 12 以及巴珊王噩的國土。噩曾經在亞斯她錄和以得來做王,是僅存的利乏音人。摩西打敗了這些人,趕走了他們。 13 以色列人卻沒有趕走基述人和瑪迦人,他們到今天還住在以色列人當中。

14 摩西並沒有把土地分給利未支派作產業,因為獻給以色列的上帝耶和華的火祭就是他們的產業,正如耶和華對他們的應許。

15 以下是摩西按宗族分給呂便支派的產業: 16 從亞嫩谷的城、谷旁的亞羅珥和米底巴附近的整個平原, 17 到希實本城和希實本平原的所有城邑,即底本、巴末·巴力、伯·巴力·勉、 18 雅雜、基底莫、米法押、 19 基列亭、西比瑪、谷中山丘上的細列哈·沙轄、 20 伯毗珥、毗斯迦山坡和伯·耶西末, 21 平原的各城邑和亞摩利王西宏的國土。西宏曾在希實本做王,摩西打敗了他和他的米甸首領以未、利金、蘇珥、戶珥和利巴。 22 以色列人所殺的人中有比珥的兒子術士巴蘭。 23 呂便支派的土地以約旦河為界。以上是呂便支派按宗族分到的城邑和村莊。

24 以下是摩西按宗族分給迦得支派的土地: 25 雅謝和基列境內所有的城邑;亞捫人的一半領土,直到拉巴附近的亞羅珥; 26 從希實本直到拉抹·米斯巴和比多寧,從瑪哈念到底璧的邊境; 27 還有谷中的伯亞蘭、伯·寧拉、疏割、撒分,就是希實本王西宏國中其餘的土地,以約旦河為界,沿東岸直到加利利海的頂端。 28 以上這些城邑、村莊便是迦得支派按宗族所分到的產業。

29 以下是摩西按宗族分給瑪拿西半個支派的土地: 30 從瑪哈念開始,包括整個巴珊,就是巴珊王噩的國土及其境內雅珥的六十座城邑, 31 還有基列的一半和巴珊王噩的兩座城——亞斯她錄和以得來。瑪拿西的兒子瑪吉的一半子孫按宗族分到這些土地。

32 以上是摩西在耶利哥對面約旦河東的摩押平原分給以色列人的產業。 33 摩西並沒有分給利未支派任何產業,因為以色列的上帝耶和華就是他們的產業,正如耶和華對他們的應許。
