1 Então, os cabeças dos pais dos levitas se achegaram a Eleazar, o sacerdote, e a Josué, filho de Num, e aos cabeças dos pais das tribos dos filhos de Israel; 2 e falaram-lhes em Siló, na terra de Canaã, dizendo: O Senhor ordenou, pelo ministério de Moisés, que se nos dessem cidades para habitar e os seus arrabaldes para os nossos animais. 3 Pelo que os filhos de Israel deram aos levitas, da sua herança, conforme o dito do Senhor, estas cidades e os seus arrabaldes. 4 E saiu a sorte pelas famílias dos coatitas; e aos filhos de Arão, o sacerdote, dentre os levitas, caíram por sorte, da tribo de Judá, e da tribo de Simeão, e da tribo de Benjamim, treze cidades. 5 E aos outros filhos de Coate caíram por sorte, das famílias da tribo de Efraim, e da tribo de Dã, e da meia tribo de Manassés, dez cidades. 6 E aos filhos de Gérson caíram por sorte, das famílias da tribo de Issacar, e da tribo de Aser, e da tribo de Naftali, e da meia tribo de Manassés, em Basã, treze cidades. 7 Aos filhos de Merari, segundo as suas famílias, da tribo de Rúben, e da tribo de Gade, e da tribo de Zebulom, doze cidades. 8 E deram os filhos de Israel aos levitas estas cidades e os seus arrabaldes por sorte, como o Senhor ordenara pelo ministério de Moisés.
9 Deram mais, da tribo dos filhos de Judá e da tribo dos filhos de Simeão, estas cidades, que por nome foram nomeadas, 10 para que fossem dos filhos de Arão, das famílias dos coatitas, dos filhos de Levi; porquanto a primeira sorte foi sua. 11 Assim, lhes deram a cidade de Arba, do pai de Anaque (esta é Hebrom), no monte de Judá, e os seus arrabaldes em redor dela. 12 Porém o campo da cidade e as suas aldeias deram a Calebe, filho de Jefoné, por sua possessão.
13 Assim, aos filhos de Arão, o sacerdote, deram a cidade de refúgio do homicida, Hebrom, e os seus arrabaldes, e Libna e os seus arrabaldes; 14 e Jatir e os seus arrabaldes, e Estemoa e os seus arrabaldes; 15 e Holom e os seus arrabaldes, e Debir e os seus arrabaldes; 16 e Aim e os seus arrabaldes, e Jutá e os seus arrabaldes, e Bete-Semes e os seus arrabaldes: nove cidades destas duas tribos. 17 E da tribo de Benjamim, Gibeão e os seus arrabaldes, Geba e os seus arrabaldes; 18 e Anatote e os seus arrabaldes, e Almom e os seus arrabaldes: quatro cidades. 19 Todas as cidades dos sacerdotes, filhos de Arão, foram treze cidades e os seus arrabaldes.
20 E as famílias dos filhos de Coate, levitas, que ficaram dos filhos de Coate, tiveram as cidades da sua sorte da tribo de Efraim. 21 E deram-lhes Siquém, cidade de refúgio do homicida, e os seus arrabaldes, no monte de Efraim, e Gezer e os seus arrabaldes; 22 e Quibzaim e os seus arrabaldes, e Bete-Horom e os seus arrabaldes: quatro cidades. 23 E da tribo de Dã, Elteque e os seus arrabaldes, Gibetom e os seus arrabaldes; 24 e Aijalom e os seus arrabaldes, Gate-Rimom e os seus arrabaldes: quatro cidades. 25 E da meia tribo de Manassés, Taanaque e os seus arrabaldes, e Gate-Rimom e os seus arrabaldes: duas cidades. 26 Todas as cidades para as famílias dos demais filhos de Coate foram dez e os seus arrabaldes.
27 E aos filhos de Gérson, das famílias dos levitas, Golã, da meia tribo de Manassés, cidade de refúgio do homicida, em Basã, e os seus arrabaldes, e Beesterá e os seus arrabaldes: duas cidades. 28 E da tribo de Issacar, Quisião e os seus arrabaldes, Daberate e os seus arrabaldes; 29 e Jarmute e os seus arrabaldes, En-Ganim e os seus arrabaldes: quatro cidades. 30 E da tribo de Aser, Misal e os seus arrabaldes, Abdom e os seus arrabaldes; 31 e Helcate e os seus arrabaldes, Reobe e os seus arrabaldes: quatro cidades. 32 E da tribo de Naftali, Quedes, cidade de refúgio do homicida, na Galileia, e os seus arrabaldes, e Hamote-Dor e os seus arrabaldes; e Cartã e os seus arrabaldes: três cidades. 33 Todas as cidades dos gersonitas, segundo as suas famílias, foram treze cidades e os seus arrabaldes.
34 E às famílias dos demais filhos de Merari, dos levitas, foram dadas, da tribo de Zebulom, Jocneão e os seus arrabaldes, Cartá e os seus arrabaldes; 35 e Dimna e os seus arrabaldes, Naalal e os seus arrabaldes: quatro cidades. 36 E da tribo de Rúben, Bezer e os seus arrabaldes, e Jaza e os seus arrabaldes; 37 e Quedemote e os seus arrabaldes, e Mefaate e os seus arrabaldes: quatro cidades. 38 E da tribo de Gade, Ramote, cidade de refúgio do homicida, em Gileade, e os seus arrabaldes, e Maanaim e os seus arrabaldes; 39 e Hesbom e os seus arrabaldes, Jazer e os seus arrabaldes: quatro cidades. 40 Todas estas cidades foram dos filhos de Merari, segundo as suas famílias, que ainda restavam das famílias dos levitas; e foi a sua sorte doze cidades. 41 Todas as cidades dos levitas, no meio da herança dos filhos de Israel, foram quarenta e oito cidades e os seus arrabaldes. 42 Estavam estas cidades cada qual com os seus arrabaldes em redor delas; assim estavam todas estas cidades. 43 Desta sorte, deu o Senhor a Israel toda a terra que jurara dar a seus pais; e a possuíram e habitaram nela. 44 E o Senhor lhes deu repouso em redor, conforme tudo quanto jurara a seus pais; e nenhum de todos os seus inimigos ficou em pé diante deles; todos os seus inimigos o Senhor deu na sua mão. 45 Palavra alguma falhou de todas as boas palavras que o Senhor falara à casa de Israel; tudo se cumpriu.
1 Then came near the heads of the fathers of the Levites unto Eleazar the priest, and unto Joshua the son of Nun, and unto the heads of the fathers of the tribes of the children of Israel; 2 And they spake 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 cattle. 3 And the children of Israel gave unto the Levites out of their inheritance, at the commandment of the LORD, these cities and their suburbs. 4 And the lot came out for the families of the Kohathites: and the children of Aaron the priest, which 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 And the rest of the children 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 And the children 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 The children 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 And the children of Israel gave by lot unto the Levites these cities with their suburbs, as the LORD commanded by the hand of Moses.
9 And they gave out of the tribe of the children of Judah, and out of the tribe of the children of Simeon, these cities which are here mentioned by name, 10 Which the children of Aaron, being of the families of the Kohathites, who were of the children of Levi, had: for theirs was the first lot. 11 And they gave them the city of Arba the father of Anak, which city is Hebron, in the hill country of Judah, with the suburbs thereof round about it. 12 But the fields of the city, and the villages thereof, gave they to Caleb the son of Jephunneh for his possession.
13 Thus they gave to the children of Aaron the priest Hebron with her suburbs, to be a city of refuge for the slayer; and Libnah with her suburbs, 14 And Jattir with her suburbs, and Eshtemoa with her suburbs, 15 And Holon with her suburbs, and Debir with her suburbs, 16 And Ain with her suburbs, and Juttah with her suburbs, and Beth-shemesh with her suburbs; nine cities out of those two tribes. 17 And out of the tribe of Benjamin, Gibeon with her suburbs, Geba with her suburbs, 18 Anathoth with her suburbs, and Almon with her suburbs; four cities. 19 All the cities of the children of Aaron, the priests, were thirteen cities with their suburbs.
20 And the families of the children of Kohath, the Levites which remained of the children of Kohath, even they had the cities of their lot out of the tribe of Ephraim. 21 For they gave them Shechem with her suburbs in mount Ephraim, to be a city of refuge for the slayer; and Gezer with her suburbs, 22 And Kibzaim with her suburbs, and Beth-horon with her suburbs; four cities. 23 And out of the tribe of Dan, Eltekeh with her suburbs, Gibbethon with her suburbs, 24 Aijalon with her suburbs, Gath-rimmon with her suburbs; four cities. 25 And out of the half tribe of Manasseh, Tanach with her suburbs, and Gath-rimmon with her suburbs; two cities. 26 All the cities were ten with their suburbs for the families of the children of Kohath that remained.
27 And unto the children of Gershon, of the families of the Levites, out of the other half tribe of Manasseh they gave Golan in Bashan with her suburbs, to be a city of refuge for the slayer; and Beesh-terah with her suburbs; two cities. 28 And out of the tribe of Issachar, Kishon with her suburbs, Dabareh with her suburbs, 29 Jarmuth with her suburbs, En-gannim with her suburbs; four cities. 30 And out of the tribe of Asher, Mishal with her suburbs, Abdon with her suburbs, 31 Helkath with her suburbs, and Rehob with her suburbs; four cities. 32 And out of the tribe of Naphtali, Kedesh in Galilee with her suburbs, to be a city of refuge for the slayer; and Hammoth-dor with her suburbs, and Kartan with her suburbs; three cities. 33 All the cities of the Gershonites according to their families were thirteen cities with their suburbs.
34 And unto the families of the children of Merari, the rest of the Levites, out of the tribe of Zebulun, Jokneam with her suburbs, and Kartah with her suburbs, 35 Dimnah with her suburbs, Nahalal with her suburbs; four cities. 36 And out of the tribe of Reuben, Bezer with her suburbs, and Jahazah with her suburbs, 37 Kedemoth with her suburbs, and Mephaath with her suburbs; four cities. 38 And out of the tribe of Gad, Ramoth in Gilead with her suburbs, to be a city of refuge for the slayer; and Mahanaim with her suburbs, 39 Heshbon with her suburbs, Jazer with her suburbs; four cities in all. 40 So all the cities for the children of Merari by their families, which were remaining of the families of the Levites, were by their lot twelve cities. 41 All the cities of the Levites within the possession of the children of Israel were forty and eight cities with their suburbs. 42 These cities were every one with their suburbs round about them: thus were all these cities.
43 And the LORD gave unto Israel all the land which he sware to give unto their fathers; and they possessed it, and dwelt therein. 44 And the LORD gave them rest round about, according to all that he sware unto their fathers: and there stood not a man of all their enemies before them; the LORD delivered all their enemies into their hand. 45 There failed not ought of any good thing which the LORD had spoken unto the house of Israel; all came to pass.
