1 N ow Joshua was old and stricken in years; and the Lord said unto him, Thou art old and stricken in years, and there remaineth yet very much land to be possessed.

Sendo Josué já velho, de idade bastante avançada, o Senhor lhe disse: “Você já está velho, e ainda há muita terra para ser conquistada.

2 T his is the land that yet remaineth: all the borders of the Philistines, and all Geshuri,

“Esta é a terra que resta: todas as regiões dos filisteus e dos gesuritas;

6 A ll the inhabitants of the hill country from Lebanon unto Misrephoth-maim, and all the Sidonians, them will I drive out from before the children of Israel: only divide thou it by lot unto the Israelites for an inheritance, as I have commanded thee.

“Todos os habitantes das montanhas, desde o Líbano até Misrefote-Maim, isto é, todos os sidônios; eu mesmo os expulsarei da presença dos israelitas. Você, porém, distribuirá essa terra a Israel por herança, como lhe ordenei,

7 N ow therefore divide this land for an inheritance unto the nine tribes, and the half tribe of Manasseh,

repartindo-a agora entre as nove tribos e a metade da tribo de Manassés”. A Divisão das Terras a Leste do Jordão

isto é, todo o reino de Ogue, em Basã, que tinha reinado em Asterote e Edrei, um dos últimos refains sobreviventes. Moisés os tinha derrotado e tomado as suas terras.

13 N evertheless the children of Israel expelled not the Geshurites, nor the Maachathites: but the Geshurites and the Maachathites dwell among the Israelites until this day.

Mas os israelitas não expulsaram os gesuritas e maacatitas, de modo que até hoje continuam a viver no meio deles.

14 O nly unto the tribe of Levi he gave none inheritance; the sacrifices of the Lord God of Israel made by fire are their inheritance, as he said unto them.

Essa foi a herança que Moisés lhes deu quando estava na planície de Moabe, do outro lado do Jordão, a leste de Jericó.

33 B ut unto the tribe of Levi Moses gave not any inheritance: the Lord God of Israel was their inheritance, as he said unto them.

Mas à tribo de Levi Moisés não deu herança alguma; o Senhor, o Deus de Israel, é a herança deles, como já lhes dissera.
