< Joshua 14 >

1 Now these are the portions that the Israelites inherited in the land of Canaan, as distributed by Eleazar the priest, Joshua son of Nun, and the heads of the families of the tribes of Israel.
Qaima Eleazar, Nun capa Joshua hoi Israel acaeng zaehoikungnawk loe, nihcae khaeah paek ih, Kanaan praenawk to Israel kaminawk mah qawk ah toep o.
2 Their inheritance was assigned by lot for the nine and a half tribes, as the LORD had commanded through Moses.
Angraeng mah Mosi khae thuih ih lok baktih toengah, acaeng takawtto pacoeng, acaeng ahap ah kaom kaminawk loe, taham khethaih phoisa vah ih baktih toengah qawk to a toep o.
3 For Moses had given the inheritance east of the Jordan to the other two and a half tribes. But he granted no inheritance among them to the Levites.
Mosi mah acaeng hnetto hoi acaeng ahap ah kaom kami hanah, Jordan vapui ni angyae bang ih prae to qawk ah paek; toe Levi kaminawk loe tih qawk doeh paek pae ai.
4 The descendants of Joseph became two tribes, Manasseh and Ephraim. And no portion of the land was given to the Levites, except for cities in which to live, along with pasturelands for their flocks and herds.
Acaeng hnetto ah kaom Joseph ih caanawk loe, Manasseh hoi Ephraim acaeng thuikoehhaih ih ni; Levi kaminawk han prae to paek ai; toe maitawnawk to pacah hanah nihcae ohhaih vangpui hoi a taeng ah kaom long ahmuennawk to a hak o.
5 So the Israelites did as the LORD had commanded Moses, and they divided the land.
Angraeng mah Mosi khae paek ih lok baktih toengah, Israel kaminawk mah, prae to amzet o.
6 Then the sons of Judah approached Joshua at Gilgal, and Caleb son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite said to him, “You know what the LORD said to Moses the man of God at Kadesh-barnea about you and me.
Judah kaminawk loe Gilgal vangpui ah Joshua khaeah caeh o; Keniz acaeng Jephunneh capa Kaleb mah anih khaeah, Angraeng mah Kadesh-Bernea ah, Sithaw kami Mosi khaeah nang hoi kai kawng thuih ih lok to na panoek.
7 I was forty years old when Moses the servant of the LORD sent me from Kadesh-barnea to spy out the land, and I brought back to him an honest report.
Angraeng ih tamna Mosi mah prae khet han Kadesh-Bernea hoi ang patoeh naah, kai loe saning quipalito ka oh boeh; ka hnuk ih baktih toengah anih khaeah ka thuih pae let.
8 Although my brothers who went with me made the hearts of the people melt with fear, I remained loyal to the LORD my God.
Toe kaimah hoi nawnto kacaeh kam nawkamyanawk mah kaminawk ih palungthin to tui baktiah amkaw o sak; toe kai loe ka Angraeng Sithaw hnukah palungthin boih hoiah pazui.
9 On that day Moses swore to me, saying, ‘Surely the land on which you have set foot will be an inheritance to you and your children forever, because you have wholly followed the LORD my God.’
To na niah Mosi mah, Nang loe palungthin boih hoiah ka Angraeng Sithaw hnukah na bang pongah, na khok hoi cawh ih prae to, nangmah hoi na caanawk mah dungzan khoek to toep o ih qawk ah om tih, tiah lokkamhaih a sak.
10 Now behold, as the LORD promised, He has kept me alive these forty-five years since He spoke this word to Moses, while Israel wandered in the wilderness. So here I am today, eighty-five years old,
Israel kaminawk praezaek ah amhet o naah, Angraeng mah Mosi khaeah lokthuih pae na ni hoi kamtong, a thuih ih lok baktih toengah vaihni ni khoek to, saning quipali, pangato khoek to ang hingsak boeh; khenah, kai loe vaihi saning quitazet, pangato oh boeh.
11 still as strong today as I was the day Moses sent me out. As my strength was then, so it is now for war, for going out, and for coming in.
Mosi mah ang patoeh nathuem ih baktih toengah vaihni doeh ka thacak vop; canghnii ih ka thacakhaih baktih toengah, misatukhaih ahmuen ah caeh hanah thacak vop.
12 Now therefore give me this hill country that the LORD promised me on that day, for you yourself heard then that the Anakim were there, with great and fortified cities. Perhaps with the LORD’s help I will drive them out, as the LORD has spoken.”
To pongah to nathuem ah Angraeng mah thuih ih lok baktih toengah, hae mae hae vaihi kai hanah na paek ah; hae mae nuiah Anak kaminawk oh o; paroeai kalen, sipae kacakah thung ih vangpuinawk doeh oh, tiah nang mah doeh na thaih boeh; toe Angraeng mah na oh haih nahaeloe, Angraeng mah thuih ih lok baktih toengah, nihcae to ka haek boih thai tih hmang, tiah a naa.
13 Then Joshua blessed Caleb son of Jephunneh and gave him Hebron as his inheritance.
To naah Joshua mah, Jephunneh capa Kaleb to tahamhoihaih paek moe, qawk ah Hebron vangpui to a paek.
14 Therefore Hebron belongs to Caleb son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite as an inheritance to this day, because he wholly followed the LORD, the God of Israel.
Keniz acaeng Jephunneh capa Kaleb loe, palungthin boih hoiah Israel Angraeng Sithaw hnukah bang pongah, Hebron vangpui to vaihni ni khoek to qawk ah a toep.
15 (Hebron used to be called Kiriath-arba, after Arba, the greatest man among the Anakim.) Then the land had rest from war.
Canghnii ah loe Hebron vangpui to Kirjath-Arba, tiah kawk o; Arba loe Anak kaminawk thungah zaehoikung kalen koek ah oh; to nathuem ah prae thungah misa amdinghaih to oh.
