< Joshua 14 >

1 Koro magi e kuonde mane jo-Israel oyudo kaka girkeni e piny Kanaan, ma Eliazar jadolo, Joshua wuod Nun to gi jotend dhout Israel nopogonegi.
This is what the children of Israel possessed in the land of Chanaan, which Eleazar the priest, and Josue the son of Nun, and the princes of the families by the tribes of Israel gave to them:
2 Girkeni mag-gi nochiw kuom goyo ombulu ni dhoudi ochiko gi nus, kaka Jehova Nyasaye nosechiko kokalo kuom Musa.
Dividing all by lot, as the Lord had commanded by the hand of Moses, to the nine tribes, and the half tribe.
3 Musa nosepogo yo wuok chiengʼ mar aora Jordan ni dhoudi ariyo gi nus kaka girkeni, to ne ok opogo jo-Lawi girkeni e dier ogendini moko,
For to two tribes and a half Moses had given possession beyond the Jordan: besides the Levites, who received no land among their brethren:
4 nimar yawuot Josef ne osepogore mi obedo dhoudi ariyo ma gin, Manase gi Efraim. Jo-Lawi ne ok oyudo pok moro e pinyno makmana mier mag dak, to gi lege ma rombgi kod dhogi nyalo kwayoe.
But in their place succeeded the children of Joseph divided into two tribes, of Manasses and Ephraim: neither did the Levites receive other portion of land, but cities to dwell in, and their suburbs to feed their beasts and flocks.
5 Omiyo jo-Israel nopogo pinyno mana kaka Jehova Nyasaye nosechiko Musa.
As the Lord had commanded Moses, so did the children of Israel, and they divided the land.
6 Eka jo-Juda nodhi ir Joshua Gilgal kendo Kaleb ma wuod Jefune ma ja-Kenizi nowachone niya, “Ingʼeyo gima Jehova Nyasaye nowachone Musa, ngʼat Nyasaye ka en Kadesh Barnea kuomi kod an.
Then the children of Juda came to Josue in Galgal, and Caleb the son of Jephone the Cenezite spoke to him: Thou knowest what the Lord spoke to Moses the man of God concerning me and thee in Cadesbarne.
7 Ne an ja-higni piero angʼwen kinde mane Musa jatich Jehova Nyasaye noora ka aa Kadesh Barnea mondo anon pinyni, kendo naduogone wach kaka chunya noneno,
I was forty Bears old when Moses the servant of the Lord sent me from Cadesbarne, to view the land, and I brought him word again as to me seemed true.
8 to owetena mane odhi koda nokelo wach mane onyoso chuny ji. To kata kamano, an to naluwo Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasacha gi chunya duto.
But my brethren, that had gone up with me, discouraged the heart of the people: and I nevertheless followed the Lord my God.
9 Omiyo odiechiengno Musa nokwongʼorena ni, ‘E pinyno matiendi osenyono biro bedo girkeni magi kendo gi nyithindi nyaka chiengʼ, nikech useluwo Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasacha gi chunyu duto.’
And Moses swore in that day, saying: The land which thy foot hath trodden upon shall be thy possession, and thy children’s for ever, because thou hast followed the Lord my God.
10 “Koro mana kaka Jehova Nyasaye nosingo, osemiya ngima kuom higni piero angʼwen gabich nyaka nowach ne Musa wachni, e kinde mane jo-Israel ne pod wuotho e thim. Omiyo Jehova Nyasaye oserito ngimana, makoro an gi higni piero aboro gabich!
The Lord therefore hath granted me life, as he promised until this present day. It is forty and five years since the Lord spoke this word to Moses, when Israel journeyed through the wilderness: this day I am eighty-five years old,
11 Kata kawuono pod ategno mana ka kinde mane Musa ooracha, kendo pod an-gi ilo mar dhi oko mondo akedi mana kaka ne an ndalo cha.
As strong as I was at that time when I was sent to view the land: the strength of that time continueth in me until this day, as well to fight as to march.
12 Koro miya piny manie godni mane Jehova Nyasaye nosingona odiechiengʼ cha. In iwuon ni iwinjo ni jo-Anak ni kanyo kendo miechgi madongo ne lach kendo ochiel gohinga makmana Jehova Nyasaye kokonya to abiro riembogi oko mana kaka nowacho.”
Give me therefore this mountain, which the Lord promised, in thy hearing also, wherein are the Enacims, and cities great and strong: if so be the Lord will be with me, and I shall be able to destroy them, as he promised me.
13 Eka Joshua nogwedho Kaleb wuod Jefune mi omiye Hebron kaka girkeni mare.
And Josue blessed him, and gave him Hebron in possession.
14 Omiyo Hebron osebedo mar Kaleb wuod Jefune ma ja-Kenizi nyaka aa chiengʼno, nikech noluwo Jehova Nyasaye, Nyasach Israel, gi chunye duto.
And from that time Hebron belonged to Caleb the son of Jephone the Cenezite, until this present day: because he followed the Lord the God of Israel.
15 Chon ni luongo Hebron ni Kiriath Arba kaluwore gi Arba, mane jatelo maduongʼ e dier jo-Anak. Bangʼe pinyno nobedo gi kwe.
The name of Hebron before was called Cariath-Arbe: Adam the greatest among the Enacims was laid there: and the land rested from wars.
