1 N a ka huihui te whakaminenga katoa o nga tama a Iharaira ki Hiro, a whakaturia ana e ratou ki reira te tapenakara o te whakaminenga: a i taea hoki te whenua e ratou.

And the whole congregation of the Israelites assembled at Shiloh and set up the Tent of Meeting there; and the land was subdued before them.

2 N a ka toe e whitu nga iwi o nga tama a Iharaira, kahore nei i wehea to ratou kainga tupu ki a ratou.

And there remained among the Israelites seven tribes who had not yet divided their inheritance.

3 N a ka mea a Hohua ki nga tama a Iharaira, Kia pehea ake te roa o to koutou nei mangere ki te haere ki te tango i te whenua kua hoatu nei ki a koutou e Ihowa, e te Atua o o koutou matua?

Joshua asked the Israelites, How long will you be slack to go in and possess the land which the Lord, the God of your fathers, has given you?

4 W hakaritea mo koutou kia tokotoru mo ia iwi: a maku ratou e tono, a ka whakatika ratou, ka haere i te whenua, a ka tuhituhi kia rite ki o ratou wahi; a ka haere mai ai ratou ki ahau.

Provide three men from each tribe, and I will send them to go through the land and write a description of it according to their inheritances; then they shall return to me.

5 M e wehe hoki e ratou kia whitu nga wahi: me noho a Hura ki tona wahi ki te tonga, me noho ano hoki te whare o Hohepa ki tona wahi ki te raki.

And they shall divide it into seven parts. Judah shall remain in its territory on the south and the house of Joseph shall remain in its territory on the north.

6 N a me tuhituhi e koutou te whenua kia whitu nga wahi, ka kawe mai ai i te pukapuka ki ahau ki konei, a maku e maka o koutou rota ki konei ki te aroaro o Ihowa, o to tatou Atua.

You shall describe the land in seven divisions, and bring the description here to me, that I may cast lots for you here before the Lord our God.

7 O tira kahore he wahi mo nga Riwaiti i roto i a koutou; ko te mahi tohunga ki a Ihowa te wahi mo ratou: a ko Kara, ko Reupena, ko tetahi taanga hoki o te iwi o Manahi, kua whiwhi ratou ki to ratou wahi i tawahi o Horano whaka te rawhiti, ki ta Moh i, ki ta te pononga a Ihowa i hoatu ai ki a ratou.

But the Levites have no portion among you, for the priesthood of the Lord is their inheritance. Gad and Reuben and half the tribe of Manasseh have received their inheritance east of the Jordan, which Moses the servant of the Lord gave them.

8 N a ka whakatika aua tangata, a ka haere: a i whakahau a Hohua i te hunga i haere ki te tuhituhi i te whenua, i mea, Turia atu, haereerea hoki te whenua, tuhituhia hoki, ka hoki mai ai ki ahau, a maku e maka o koutou rota ki konei, ki te aroaro o Ihowa, ki Hiro.

So the men arose and went, and Joshua charged them saying, Go and walk through the land and describe it and come again to me, and I will cast lots for you here before the Lord in Shiloh.

9 N a ka turia atu e aua tangata, ka haere a puta noa te whenua, a tuhituhia iho e ratou ki te pukapuka, e whitu nga wahi, he mea whakaaro ki nga pa, a haere ana ki a Hohua, ki te puni ki Hiro.

And the men went and passed through the land and described it by cities in seven portions in a book; and they came again to Joshua to the camp at Shiloh.

10 A maka ana e Hohua he rota mo ratou i Hiro, i te aroaro o Ihowa: na ka wehea e Hohua te whenua i reira mo nga tama a Iharaira, kia rite ki o ratou wehenga.

Joshua cast lots for them in Shiloh before the Lord, and there divided the land to the Israelites, to each his portion.

11 I puta ake te rota o te iwi o nga tama a Pineamine, ara o o ratou hapu: i haere te rohe o to ratou wahi i te takiwa o to nga tama a Hura, o to nga tama a Hohepa.

And the lot of the Benjamites came up according to their families; and the territory of their lot fell between the tribes of Judah and Joseph.

12 A ko to ratou rohe ki te taha ki te raki i Horano; na i haere te rohe ki runga, ki te taha o Heriko, ki te raki, a i haere whakarunga, na te whenua pukepuke whaka te hauauru, a puta tonu atu i te koraha o Peteawene.

On the north side their boundary began at the Jordan; then it went up to the shoulder of Jericho on the north and up through the hill country westward and ended at the Beth-aven wilderness.

13 A i tika atu te rohe i reira ki Rutu, ki te taha o Rutu, ara ki Peteere whaka te tonga; na i anga whakararo te rohe ki Ataroto Arara, tatu tonu ki te pukepuke e tu ana i te tonga o Petehorono ki raro.

Then the boundary passed over southward toward Luz, to the shoulder of Luz (that is, Bethel); then it went down to Ataroth-addar by the mountain that lies south of Lower Beth-horon.

14 N a ka whakatakotoria atu te rohe, a ka wahio haere ma te taha hauauru whaka te tonga, atu i te pukepuke e tu ana i te ritenga atu o Petehorono whaka te tonga; a ko ona putanga i Kiriatapaara, ara i Kiriata Tearimi, he pa no nga tama a Hura: ko t e taha tenei ki te hauauru.

The boundary extended from there, and turning about on the western side southward from the mountain that lies to the south opposite Beth-horon, it ended at Kiriath-baal (that is, Kiriath-jearim), a city of the tribe of Judah. This formed the western side.

15 A ko te taha ki te tonga i te pito rawa o Kiriata Tearimi, a i puta atu te rohe whaka te hauauru, a puta tonu atu ki te puna wai i Nepetoa:

The southern side began at the edge of Kiriath-jearim, and the boundary went on westward to the spring of the waters of Nephtoah.

16 A i anga whakararo te rohe ki te pito rawa o te maunga e tu ana i mua i te raorao o te tama a Hinomo, ki tera i te raorao o Repaima whaka te raki; na i heke ki te raorao o Hinimo, ki te taha o te Iepuhi ki te tonga, a i heke ki Enerokere;

Then the boundary went down to the edge of the mountain overlooking the Valley of Ben-hinnom, which is at the north end of the Valley of Rephaim; and it descended to the Valley of Hinnom, south of the shoulder of the Jebusites, and went on down to En-rogel.

17 N a i whakatakotoria atu te raki. a ka puta atu ki Enehemehe, a ka puta atu ki Keriroto, ki te ritenga atu o te pinakitanga ki Arumine; a heke noa ki te kohatu o Pohana, o te tama o Reupena,

Then it bent toward the north and went on to En-shemesh and on to Geliloth, which was opposite the ascent of Adummim, and went down to the Stone of Bohan son of Reuben.

18 N a i haere tonu i te tahi ki te raki ki te ritenga atu o Arapa, a i heke tonu atu ki Arapa;

And it went on to the north of the shoulder -Arabah and down to the Arabah.

19 N a i here tonu te rohe ki te taha ki te raki o Petehokora: a i pakaru rawa atu te rohe ki te kokoru whaka te raki o te Moana Toto i te pito ki te tonga o Horano: ko te rohe tenei ki te tonga.

Then the boundary passed along to the north of the shoulder of Beth-hoglah and ended at the northern bay of the Salt Sea, at the south end of the Jordan. This was the southern border.

20 A ko Horano tona rohe i te taha ki te rawhiti. Ko te kainga tupu tenei o nga tama a Pineamine, ko nga rohe hoki o reira a tawhio noa, ara o o ratou hapu.

And the Jordan was its boundary on the east side. This was the inheritance of the sons of Benjamin by their boundaries round about, according to their families.

21 N a, ko nga pa o te iwi o nga tama a Pineamine, o o ratou hapu, ko Heriko, ko Petehokora, me Emekeketiti;

Now the cities of the tribe of Benjamin according to families were: Jericho, Beth-hoglah, Emek-keziz,

22 K o Petearapa, ko Temaraima, ko Peteere;

Beth-arabah, Zemaraim, Bethel,

23 K o Awimi, ko Paraha, ko Opora;

Avvim, Parah, Ophrah,

24 K o Kepara Hamonai, ko Oponi, ko Kepa: kotahi tekau ma rua nga pa me nga kainga o aua pa:

Chephar-ammoni, Ophni, and Geba; twelve cities with their villages;

25 K o Kipeono, ko Rama, ko Peeroto;

Gibeon, Ramah, Beeroth,

26 K o Mihipe, ko Kepira, ko Motaha;

27 K o Rekeme, ko Iripeere, ko Tarara;

Rekem, Irpeel, Taralah,

28 K o Heraha, ko Erepe, ko Iepuhi, ara ko Hiruharama, ko Kipeata, ko Kiriata; kotahi tekau ma wha nga pa me nga kainga. Ko te kainga tupu tenei o nga tama a Pineamine, o o ratou hapu.

Zelah, Haeleph, the Jebusite —that is, Jerusalem—Gibeah, and Kiriath-; fourteen cities with their villages. This is the inheritance of the tribe of Benjamin according to their families.
