1 ح ِينَئِذٍ أتَى رُؤَساءُ عائِلاتِ اللّاوِيِّينَ إلَى ألِعازَرَ الكاهِنِ وَيَشُوعَ بْنِ نُونَ وَرُؤَساءِ قَبائِلِ إسْرائِيلَ،

¶ Then the heads of the fathers of the Levites came near unto Eleazar the priest and unto Joshua, the son of Nun, and unto the heads of the fathers of the tribes of the sons of Israel;

2 و َقالُوا لَهُمْ فِي شَيلُوهَ فِي أرْضِ كَنْعانَ: «أمَرَ اللهُ عَلَى فَمِ مُوسَى بِأنْ تُعطَى لَنا مُدُنٌ نَسكُنُ فِيها مَعَ مَراعِيها لِأجلِ حَيواناتِنا.»

and they spoke unto them at Shiloh in the land of Canaan, saying, The LORD commanded by the hand of Moses to give us cities to dwell in with the suburbs thereof for our beasts.

3 و َبِحَسَبِ أمْرِ اللهِ ، أعطَى بَنُو إسْرائِيلَ لِلّاوِيِّينَ المُدُنَ التّالِيَةَ مَعَ مَراعِيها مِنْ أرْضِ بَنِي إسْرائِيلَ.

Then the sons of Israel gave unto the Levites out of their possessions, according to the word of the LORD, these cities and their suburbs.

4 و َبِإلقاءِ القُرَعِ، كانَتِ القُرعَةُ الأُولَى لِعَشائِرِ القَهاتِيِّينَ. فَنالَ القَهاتِيُّونَ الَّذِينَ كانُوا مِنْ نَسلِ هارُونَ بِالقُرعَةِ ثَلاثَ عَشْرَةَ مَدِينَةً مِنْ قَبائِلِ يَهُوذا وَشِمعُونَ وَبَنْيامِيْنَ.

And the lot came out for the families of the Kohathites; and the sons of Aaron the priest, who were of the Levites, had by lot out of the tribe of Judah and out of the tribe of Simeon and out of the tribe of Benjamin, thirteen cities.

5 و َأمّا بَقِيَّةُ القَهاتِيِّينَ فَنالُوا بِالقُرعَةِ عَشْرَ مُدُنٍ مِنْ قَبائِلِ أفْرايِمَ وَدانَ وَنِصْفِ قَبِيلَةِ مَنَسَّى.

And the rest of the sons of Kohath had by lot out of the families of the tribe of Ephraim and out of the tribe of Dan and out of the half tribe of Manasseh, ten cities.

6 و َنالَ الجَرْشُونِيُّونَ بِالقُرعَةِ ثَلاثَ عَشْرَةَ مَدِينَةً مِنْ قَبائِلِ يَسّاكَرَ وَأشِيرَ وَنَفْتالِي وَنِصْفَ قَبِيلَةِ مَنَسَّى الَّذِي فِي باشانَ.

And the sons of Gershon had by lot out of the families of the tribe of Issachar and out of the tribe of Asher and out of the tribe of Naphtali and out of the half tribe of Manasseh in Bashan, thirteen cities.

7 و َنالَ المَرارِيُّونَ بِعَشائِرِهِمِ اثنَتَي عَشْرَةَ مَدِينَةً مِنْ قَبائِلِ رَأُوبَيْنَ وَجادٍ وَزَبُولُونَ.

The sons of Merari by their families had out of the tribe of Reuben and out of the tribe of Gad and out of the tribe of Zebulun, twelve cities.

8 و َأعطَى بَنُو إسْرائِيلَ هَذِهِ المُدُنَ وَمَراعِيها بِالقُرعَةِ لِلّاوِيِّينَ كَما أمَرَ اللهُ عَلَى فَمِ مُوسَى.

Thus the sons of Israel gave by lot unto the Levites these cities with their suburbs, as the LORD had commanded by the hand of Moses.

9 م ِنْ قَبِيلَتَي يَهُوذا وَشِمْعُونَ أعْطَوْا المُدُنَ التّالِيَةَ بِأسمائِها –

¶ And they gave out of the tribe of the sons of Judah and out of the tribe of the sons of Simeon these cities which are here mentioned by name;

10 و َقَدْ كانَتْ لِنَسلِ هارُونَ الَّذِينَ هُمْ إحدَى عائِلاتِ القَهاتِيِّينَ الَّذِينَ كانُوا مِنَ اللّاوِيِّينَ، لأنَّ القُرعَةَ الأُولَى وَقَعَتْ عَلَيْهِمِ –

and the first lot was of the sons of Aaron, of the family of Kohath, of the sons of Levi;

11 أ عطُوهُمْ قَرْياتَ أرْبَعَ، التي هي حَبْرُونُ الواقِعَةَ فِي مِنْطَقَةِ يَهُوذا الجَبَلِيَّةِ وَمَراعِيها حَولَها. وَأربَعُ هُوَ أبُو عَناقَ.

and they gave them the city of Arba of the father of Anak, which is Hebron, in the mountain of Judah, with its suburbs round about.

12 و َأمّا حُقُولُ المَدِينَةِ وَقُراها فَقَدْ أُعطِيَتْ لِكالَبَ بْنِ يَفُنَّةَ مِيراثاً لَهُ.

But the fields of the city and the villages thereof, they gave to Caleb the son of Jephunneh for his possession.

13 و َحَدَّدُوا حَبْرُونَ مَدِينَةَ لُجُوءٍ لِلمُتَّهَمِ بِالقَتلِ، وَلِبْنَةَ وَمَراعِيهِما، لِنَسلِ هارُونَ الكاهِنِ.

Thus they gave to the sons of Aaron the priest Hebron with its suburbs, to be a city of refuge for manslayers and Libnah with its suburbs

But the families of the sons of Kohath, Levites, those who remained of the sons of Kohath, received cities by lot out of the tribe of Ephraim.

¶ Thus the LORD gave unto Israel all the land which he swore to give unto their fathers; and they possessed it and dwelt therein.

44 و َأعطاهُمْ اللهُ راحَةً وَأماناً مِنْ كَلِّ ناحِيَةٍ بِحَسَبِ كُلِّ ما وَعَدَ بِهِ لآبائِهِمْ. وَلَمْ يَستَطِعْ أيُّ واحِدٍ مِنْ أعدائِهِمِ الصُّمُودَ أمامَهُمْ، فَقَدْ نَصَرَهُمُ اللهُ عَلَى كُلِّ أعدائِهِمْ.

And the LORD gave them rest round about, according to all that he had sworn unto their fathers; and none of their enemies could stand before them; the LORD delivered all their enemies into their hands.

45 و َلَمْ يَسْقُطْ أيُّ وَعدٍ مِنْ وُعُودِ اللهِ الصّالِحَةِ لِبَنِي إسْرائِيلَ، بَلْ تَحَقَّقَتْ جَميعُ وُعُودِهِ.

There failed not a word of all the good things which the LORD had spoken unto the house of Israel; all of it came to pass.
