וִיהוֹשֻׁ֣עַ זָקֵ֔ן בָּ֖א בַּיָּמִ֑ים וַיֹּ֨אמֶר יְהֹוָ֜ה אֵלָ֗יו אַתָּ֤ה זָקַ֙נְתָּה֙ בָּ֣אתָ בַיָּמִ֔ים וְהָאָ֛רֶץ נִשְׁאֲרָ֥ה הַרְבֵּֽה־מְאֹ֖ד לְרִשְׁתָּֽהּ׃
Now Yehoshua was old and advanced in age; and the Lord said to him, Thou art old and advanced in age, and there remains yet very much land to be occupied.
זֹ֥את הָאָ֖רֶץ הַנִּשְׁאָ֑רֶת כׇּל־גְּלִיל֥וֹת הַפְּלִשְׁתִּ֖ים וְכׇל־הַגְּשׁוּרִֽי׃
This is the land that yet remains: all the regions of the Pelishtim, and all the Geshuri,
מִֽן־הַשִּׁיח֞וֹר אֲשֶׁ֣ר**׀** עַל־פְּנֵ֣י מִצְרַ֗יִם וְעַ֨ד גְּב֤וּל עֶקְרוֹן֙ צָפ֔וֹנָה לַֽכְּנַעֲנִ֖י תֵּחָשֵׁ֑ב חֲמֵ֣שֶׁת**׀** סַרְנֵ֣י פְלִשְׁתִּ֗ים הָֽעַזָּתִ֤י וְהָֽאַשְׁדּוֹדִי֙ הָאֶשְׁקְלוֹנִ֣י הַגִּתִּ֔י וְהָעֶקְרוֹנִ֖י וְהָעַוִּֽים׃
from Shiĥor, which is before Miżrayim, as far as the borders of ῾Eqron northward, which is counted to the Kena῾ani: five lords of the Pelishtim: the ῾Azzati, and the Ashdodi, the Eshqeloni, the Gitti, and the ῾Eqroni; also the ῾Avvim:
מִתֵּימָ֞ן כׇּל־אֶ֣רֶץ הַֽכְּנַעֲנִ֗י וּמְעָרָ֛ה אֲשֶׁ֥ר לַצִּידֹנִ֖ים עַד־אֲפֵ֑קָה עַ֖ד גְּב֥וּל הָאֱמֹרִֽי׃
from the south, all the land of the Kena῾ani, and Me῾ara that is beside the Żidonim, as far as Afeq, to the border of the Emori:
וְהָאָ֣רֶץ הַגִּבְלִ֗י וְכׇל־הַלְּבָנוֹן֙ מִזְרַ֣ח הַשֶּׁ֔מֶשׁ מִבַּ֣עַל גָּ֔ד תַּ֖חַת הַר־חֶרְמ֑וֹן עַ֖ד לְב֥וֹא חֲמָֽת׃
and the land of the Givli, and all the Levanon, toward the sunrising, from Ba῾al-gad under mount Ḥermon to the entrance of Ḥamat.
כׇּל־יֹשְׁבֵ֣י הָ֠הָ֠ר מִֽן־הַלְּבָנ֞וֹן עַד־מִשְׂרְפֹ֥ת מַ֙יִם֙ כׇּל־צִ֣ידֹנִ֔ים אָֽנֹכִי֙ אֽוֹרִישֵׁ֔ם מִפְּנֵ֖י בְּנֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֑ל רַ֠ק הַפִּלֶ֤הָ לְיִשְׂרָאֵל֙ בְּֽנַחֲלָ֔ה כַּאֲשֶׁ֖ר צִוִּיתִֽיךָ׃
All the inhabitants of the hill country from Levanon as far as Misrefot-mayim, and all the Żidonim, them will I drive out from before the children of Yisra᾽el: only divide it by lot to Yisra᾽el for an inheritance, as I have commanded thee.
וְעַתָּ֗ה חַלֵּ֞ק אֶת־הָאָ֧רֶץ הַזֹּ֛את בְּנַחֲלָ֖ה לְתִשְׁעַ֣ת הַשְּׁבָטִ֑ים וַֽחֲצִ֖י הַשֵּׁ֥בֶט הַֽמְנַשֶּֽׁה׃
Now therefore divide this land for an inheritance to the nine tribes, and the half tribe of Menashshe.
עִמּ֗וֹ הָרֽאוּבֵנִי֙ וְהַגָּדִ֔י לָקְח֖וּ נַחֲלָתָ֑ם אֲשֶׁר֩ נָתַ֨ן לָהֶ֜ם מֹשֶׁ֗ה בְּעֵ֤בֶר הַיַּרְדֵּן֙ מִזְרָ֔חָה כַּֽאֲשֶׁר֙ נָתַ֣ן לָהֶ֔ם מֹשֶׁ֖ה עֶ֥בֶד יְהֹוָֽה׃
With him the Re᾽uveni and the Gadi have received their inheritance, which Moshe gave them, beyond the Yarden eastward, as Moshe the servant of the Lord gave them;
מֵעֲרוֹעֵ֡ר אֲשֶׁר֩ עַל־שְׂפַת־נַ֨חַל אַרְנ֜וֹן וְהָעִ֨יר אֲשֶׁ֧ר בְּתוֹךְ־הַנַּ֛חַל וְכׇל־הַמִּישֹׁ֥ר מֵידְבָ֖א עַד־דִּיבֽוֹן׃
from ῾Aro῾er, that is upon the bank of the wadi Arnon, and the city that is in the midst of the wadi, and all the tableland of Medeva as far as Divon;
וְכֹ֗ל עָרֵי֙ סִיחוֹן֙ מֶ֣לֶךְ הָאֱמֹרִ֔י אֲשֶׁ֥ר מָלַ֖ךְ בְּחֶשְׁבּ֑וֹן עַד־גְּב֖וּל בְּנֵ֥י עַמּֽוֹן׃
and all the cities of Siĥon king of the Emori who reigned in Ḥeshbon, as far as the border of the children of ῾Ammon;
וְהַגִּלְעָ֞ד וּגְב֧וּל הַגְּשׁוּרִ֣י וְהַמַּעֲכָתִ֗י וְכֹ֨ל הַ֥ר חֶרְמ֛וֹן וְכׇל־הַבָּשָׁ֖ן עַד־סַלְכָֽה׃
and the Gil῾ad, and the border of the Geshuri and the Ma῾akhati, and all mount Ḥermon, and all Bashan as far as Salkha;
כׇּל־מַמְלְכ֥וּת עוֹג֙ בַּבָּשָׁ֔ן אֲשֶׁר־מָלַ֥ךְ בְּעַשְׁתָּר֖וֹת וּבְאֶדְרֶ֑עִי ה֤וּא נִשְׁאַר֙ מִיֶּ֣תֶר הָרְפָאִ֔ים וַיַּכֵּ֥ם מֹשֶׁ֖ה וַיֹּרִשֵֽׁם׃
all the kingdom of ῾Og in Bashan, who reigned in ῾Ashtarot and in Edre῾i, who remained of the remnant of the Refa᾽im: for these did Moshe smite, and cast them out.
וְלֹ֤א הוֹרִ֙ישׁוּ֙ בְּנֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל אֶת־הַגְּשׁוּרִ֖י וְאֶת־הַמַּעֲכָתִ֑י וַיֵּ֨שֶׁב גְּשׁ֤וּר וּמַֽעֲכָת֙ בְּקֶ֣רֶב יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל עַ֖ד הַיּ֥וֹם הַזֶּֽה׃
Nevertheless the children of Israel did not expel the Geshuri, nor the Ma῾akhati: but the Geshuri and the Ma῾akhati dwell amidst Yisra᾽el until this day.
רַ֚ק לְשֵׁ֣בֶט הַלֵּוִ֔י לֹ֥א נָתַ֖ן נַחֲלָ֑ה אִשֵּׁ֨י יְהֹוָ֜ה אֱלֹהֵ֤י יִשְׂרָאֵל֙ ה֣וּא נַחֲלָת֔וֹ כַּאֲשֶׁ֖ר דִּבֶּר־לֽוֹ׃{פ}
Only to the tribe of Levi he gave no inheritance; the fire offerings of the Lord God of Yisra᾽el are their inheritance, as he said to them.
וַיִּתֵּ֣ן מֹשֶׁ֔ה לְמַטֵּ֥ה בְנֵי־רְאוּבֵ֖ן לְמִשְׁפְּחֹתָֽם׃
And Moshe gave to the tribe of the children of Re᾽uven according to their families.
וַיְהִ֨י לָהֶ֜ם הַגְּב֗וּל מֵעֲרוֹעֵ֡ר אֲשֶׁר֩ עַל־שְׂפַת־נַ֨חַל אַרְנ֜וֹן וְהָעִ֨יר אֲשֶׁ֧ר בְּתוֹךְ־הַנַּ֛חַל וְכׇל־הַמִּישֹׁ֖ר עַל־מֵידְבָֽא׃
And their border was from ῾Aro῾er, that is on the border of the wadi of Arnon, and the city that is in the midst of the wadi, and all the tableland by Medeva;
חֶשְׁבּ֥וֹן וְכׇל־עָרֶ֖יהָ אֲשֶׁ֣ר בַּמִּישֹׁ֑ר דִּיבֹן֙ וּבָמ֣וֹת בַּ֔עַל וּבֵ֖ית בַּ֥עַל מְעֽוֹן׃
Ḥeshbon, and all its cities that are in the tableland; Divon, and Bamot-ba῾al, and Bet-ba῾al-me῾on,
וְיַ֥הְצָה וּקְדֵמֹ֖ת וּמֵפָֽעַת׃
and Yahża, and Qedemot, and Mefa῾at,
וְקִרְיָתַ֣יִם וְשִׂבְמָ֔ה וְצֶ֥רֶת הַשַּׁ֖חַר בְּהַ֥ר הָעֵֽמֶק׃
and Qiryatayim, and Sivma, and Żeret-hashshaĥar in the mount of the valley,
וּבֵ֥ית פְּע֛וֹר וְאַשְׁדּ֥וֹת הַפִּסְגָּ֖ה וּבֵ֥ית הַיְשִׁמֽוֹת׃
and Bet-pe῾or, and the slopes of Pisga, and Bet-hayeshimot,
וְכֹל֙ עָרֵ֣י הַמִּישֹׁ֔ר וְכׇֽל־מַמְלְכ֗וּת סִיחוֹן֙ מֶ֣לֶךְ הָאֱמֹרִ֔י אֲשֶׁ֥ר מָלַ֖ךְ בְּחֶשְׁבּ֑וֹן אֲשֶׁר֩ הִכָּ֨ה מֹשֶׁ֜ה אֹת֣וֹ**׀** וְאֶת־נְשִׂיאֵ֣י מִדְיָ֗ן אֶת־אֱוִ֤י וְאֶת־רֶ֙קֶם֙ וְאֶת־צ֤וּר וְאֶת־חוּר֙ וְאֶת־רֶ֔בַע נְסִיכֵ֣י סִיח֔וֹן יֹשְׁבֵ֖י הָאָֽרֶץ׃
and all the cities of the tableland, and all the kingdom of Siĥon king of the Emori, who reigned in Ḥeshbon, whom Moshe smote with the princes of Midyan, Evi, and Reqem, and Żur, and Ḥur, and Reva, princes of Siĥon, dwelling in the country.
וְאֶת־בִּלְעָ֥ם בֶּן־בְּע֖וֹר הַקּוֹסֵ֑ם הָרְג֧וּ בְנֵֽי־יִשְׂרָאֵ֛ל בַּחֶ֖רֶב אֶל־חַלְלֵיהֶֽם׃
Bil῾am also, of the son of Be῾or, the soothsayer, did the children of Yisra᾽el slay with the sword among them that were slain by them.
וַיְהִ֗י גְּבוּל֙ בְּנֵ֣י רְאוּבֵ֔ן הַיַּרְדֵּ֖ן וּגְב֑וּל זֹ֣את נַחֲלַ֤ת בְּנֵֽי־רְאוּבֵן֙ לְמִשְׁפְּחוֹתָ֔ם הֶעָרִ֖ים וְחַצְרֵיהֶֽן׃{פ}
And the border of the children of Re᾽uven was the Yarden, and its shore. This was the inheritance of the children of Re᾽uven by their families, the cities and their villages.
וַיִּתֵּ֤ן מֹשֶׁה֙ לְמַטֵּה־גָ֔ד לִבְנֵי־גָ֖ד לְמִשְׁפְּחֹתָֽם׃
And Moshe gave to the tribe of Gad, to the children of Gad by their families.
וַיְהִ֤י לָהֶם֙ הַגְּב֔וּל יַעְזֵר֙ וְכׇל־עָרֵ֣י הַגִּלְעָ֔ד וַחֲצִ֕י אֶ֖רֶץ בְּנֵ֣י עַמּ֑וֹן עַד־עֲרוֹעֵ֕ר אֲשֶׁ֖ר עַל־פְּנֵ֥י רַבָּֽה׃
And their border was Ya῾zer, and all the cities of Gil῾ad, and half the land of the children of ῾Ammon, as far as ῾Aro῾er that is before Rabba;
וּמֵחֶשְׁבּ֛וֹן עַד־רָמַ֥ת הַמִּצְפֶּ֖ה וּבְטֹנִ֑ים וּמִֽמַּחֲנַ֖יִם עַד־גְּב֥וּל לִדְבִֽר׃
and from Ḥeshbon to Ramat-hammiżpe, and Betonim; and from Maĥanayim to the border of Devir;
וּבָעֵ֡מֶק בֵּ֣ית הָרָם֩ וּבֵ֨ית נִמְרָ֜ה וְסֻכּ֣וֹת וְצָפ֗וֹן יֶ֚תֶר מַמְלְכ֗וּת סִיחוֹן֙ מֶ֣לֶךְ חֶשְׁבּ֔וֹן הַיַּרְדֵּ֖ן וּגְבֻ֑ל עַד־קְצֵה֙ יָם־כִּנֶּ֔רֶת עֵ֥בֶר הַיַּרְדֵּ֖ן מִזְרָֽחָה׃
and in the valley of Bet-haram and Bet-nimra, and Sukkot, and Żafon, the rest of the kingdom of Siĥon king of Ḥeshbon, the Yarden and its shore, to the edge of the Sea of Kinneret on the other side of the Yarden eastward.
זֹ֛את נַחֲלַ֥ת בְּנֵי־גָ֖ד לְמִשְׁפְּחֹתָ֑ם הֶעָרִ֖ים וְחַצְרֵיהֶֽם׃{ס}
This is the inheritance of the children of Gad by their families, the cities, and their villages.
וַיִּתֵּ֣ן מֹשֶׁ֔ה לַחֲצִ֖י שֵׁ֣בֶט מְנַשֶּׁ֑ה וַיְהִ֗י לַחֲצִ֛י מַטֵּ֥ה בְנֵי־מְנַשֶּׁ֖ה לְמִשְׁפְּחוֹתָֽם׃
And Moshe gave inheritance to the half tribe of Menashshe: and this was the possession of the half tribe of the children of Menashshe by their families.
וַיְהִ֣י גְבוּלָ֗ם מִמַּחֲנַ֨יִם כׇּֽל־הַבָּשָׁ֜ן כׇּֽל־מַמְלְכ֣וּת**׀** ע֣וֹג מֶֽלֶךְ־הַבָּשָׁ֗ן וְכׇל־חַוֺּ֥ת יָאִ֛יר אֲשֶׁ֥ר בַּבָּשָׁ֖ן שִׁשִּׁ֥ים עִֽיר׃
And their border was from Maĥanayim, all Bashan, all the kingdom of ῾Og king of Bashan, and all the villages of Ya᾽ir, which are in Bashan, sixty cities:
וַחֲצִ֤י הַגִּלְעָד֙ וְעַשְׁתָּר֣וֹת וְאֶדְרֶ֔עִי עָרֵ֛י מַמְלְכ֥וּת ע֖וֹג בַּבָּשָׁ֑ן לִבְנֵ֤י מָכִיר֙ בֶּן־מְנַשֶּׁ֔ה לַחֲצִ֥י בְנֵֽי־מָכִ֖יר לְמִשְׁפְּחוֹתָֽם׃
and half Gil῾ad, and ῾Ashtarot, and Edre῾i, cities of the kingdom of ῾Og in Bashan, for the children of Makhir the son of Menashshe, for the one half of the children of Makhir by their families.
אֵ֕לֶּה אֲשֶׁר־נִחַ֥ל מֹשֶׁ֖ה בְּעַֽרְב֣וֹת מוֹאָ֑ב מֵעֵ֛בֶר לְיַרְדֵּ֥ן יְרִיח֖וֹ מִזְרָֽחָה׃{פ}
These are what Moshe did distribute for inheritance in the plains of Mo᾽av, on the other side of the Yarden, by Yeriĥo, eastward.
וּלְשֵׁ֙בֶט֙ הַלֵּוִ֔י לֹא־נָתַ֥ן מֹשֶׁ֖ה נַחֲלָ֑ה יְהֹוָ֞ה אֱלֹהֵ֤י יִשְׂרָאֵל֙ ה֣וּא נַחֲלָתָ֔ם כַּאֲשֶׁ֖ר דִּבֶּ֥ר לָהֶֽם׃{ס}
But to the tribe of Levi Moshe gave no inheritance: the Lord God of Yisra᾽el is their inheritance, as he said to them.
