Joshua 14

1 Kanaan kho ah Israel ca rhoek loh a pang uh he khaw khosoih Eleazar, Nun capa Joshua neh Israel ca rhoek kah cako khuiah a lu la aka om a napa rhoek long ni a phaeng.

And, these, are the inheritances which the sons of Israel received in the land of Canaan, —which Eleazar the priest, and Joshua the son of Nun, and the ancestral heads of the tribes of the sons of Israel gave them to inherit.

2 Koca pako neh hlangvang ham rho he BOEIPA loh a uen vanbangla hmulung neh Moses kut loh a yueh pah.

By lot, was their inheritance divided, —as Yahweh commanded by the hand of Moses, unto the nine tribes and unto the half tribe.

3 Koca panit neh hlangvang te Jordan rhalvangan ah Moses loh rho a paek coeng. Tedae amih khui ah Levi te tah rho a paek moenih.

For Moses had given the two tribes and the half tribe their inheritance over the Jordan, —but, unto the Levites, gave he no inheritance in their midst;

4 Joseph ca rhoi te Manasseh neh Ephraim koca la om uh. Levi te khohmuen khuikah khoyo pae uh pawt dae khosak nah ham khopuei neh a boiva, a hnopai ham bueng ni a khocaak a khueh pah.

for the sons of Joseph became two tribes: Manasseh and Ephraim, —so they gave no portion to the Levites in the land, save only cities to dwell in, with the pasture lands thereof, for their cattle and for their substance.

5 BOEIPA loh Moses a uen vanbangla Israel ca rhoek loh a saii uh tih khohmuen a tael uh.

As Yahweh commanded Moses, so, did the sons of Israel, —when they apportioned the land.

6 Te vaengah Gilgal kah Joshua taengah Judah koca rhoek te thoeih uh. Te dongah Kenizzi Jephunneh capa Kaleb loh, “Kadeshbarnea ah Pathen kah hlang Moses taengah BOEIPA loh kai kawng neh nang kawng a thui vanbangla olka khaw namah loh na ming.

Then came near the sons of Judah unto Joshua in Gilgal, and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, the Kenizzite, said unto him, —Thou, knowest the word which Yahweh spake unto Moses the man of God in my behalf and in thine in Kadesh-barnea.

7 Kum sawmli ka lo ca vaengah BOEIPA kah sal Moses loh khohmuen hip hamla Kadeshbarnea lamloh kai n'tueih tih ka thinko kah aka om vanbangla olka khaw ka bal puei.

Forty years old, was I when Moses the servant of Yahweh sent me from Kadesh-barnea to spy out the land, —so I brought him back word, as was in my heart.

8 Te vaengah kamah neh ka cet hmaih ka manuca rhoek loh pilnam kah lungbuei a yut sak. Tedae kai tah BOEIPA ka Pathen hnukah ni ka tukkoei.

But, my brethren who had been up with me, made the heart of the people melt, —whereas, I, wholly followed Yahweh my God.

9 Te dongah Moses loh amah khohnin ah a toemngam tih, “Na kho loh a til khohmuen te tah namah kah rho la om saeh lamtah BOEIPA ka Pathen hnukah na tukkoei van dongah kumhal duela na ca rhoek ham om laeh saeh,” a ti.

So then Moses sware on that day saying, Surely, the land on which thy foot hath trodden, unto thee, shall belong, for an inheritance, and unto thy sons, unto times age-abiding, —because thou hast wholly followed Yahweh my God.

10 Kum sawmli kumnga vaengah a thui vanbangla BOEIPA loh kai tahae due n'hlun coeng he. BOEIPA loh Moses taengah hekah olka a thui vaengah Israel he khosoek ah ni a pongpa. Te dongah kai khaw tihnin ah kum sawmrhet kum nga ka lo ca coeng he.

Now, therefore lo! Yahweh hath kept me alive as he spake these forty and five years from the time Yahweh spake this word unto Moses, while Israel journeyed in the desert. Now, therefore lo! I—to-day, am eighty and five years old:

11 Moses loh kai n'tueih hnin vaengkah bangla tihnin ah ka tlungluen pueng ta. Ka thadueng khaw ka thadueng nah pueng dongah caemtloek ham pataeng ka caeh rhoe ka caeh ham om.

I remain, to-day, as courageous as on the day when Moses sent me, as my strength was then, so also my strength is now, —for war, both to go out and to come in.

12 Te dongah he kah tlang he kai taengah m'pae laeh. Te khohnin ah BOEIPA loh a thui te na yaak coeng. Te khohnin ah Anakim neh khopuei tanglue khaw cakrhuet dae, kai taengah BOEIPA a om khaming. Te dongah BOEIPA kah a thui bangla amih te ka haek bitni,” a ti nah.

Now, therefore, give me this mountain, whereof Yahweh spake, on that day, —for, thou thyself, didst hear, on that day, that, Anakim, were there, and great cities fortified, if so be Yahweh be with me, then shall I dispossess them, as spake Yahweh.

13 Te dongah Joshua loh yoethen a paek tih Hebron he Jephunneh capa Kaleb taengah rho la a paek.

So Joshua blessed him, and gave Hebron unto Caleb son of Jephunneh, for an inheritance.

14 Israel Pathen BOEIPA hnukah a tukkoei dongah Hebron tah tihnin duela Kenizzi Jephunneh capa Kaleb kah rho la om.

For this cause, hath Hebron belonged unto Caleb son of Jephunneh the Kenezzite, for an inheritance, unto this day, —because he wholly followed Yahweh, God of Israel.

15 Hebron ming he khaw hlamat vaengah tah Anakim khuikah hlang len Kiriatharba tila om tih a khohmuen te caemrhal lamloh mong.

Now, the name of Hebron, was formerly, City of Arba, the greatest man among the Anakim, was he. And, the land, had rest from war.
