< Joshua 14 >

1 And these are the heritages which the children of Israel took in the land of Canaan, which Eleazar, the priest, and Joshua, the son of Nun, and the heads of the tribes of the children of Israel, gave out to them;
To so dežele, ki so jih Izraelovi otroci podedovali v kánaanski deželi, ki so jim jo duhovnik Eleazar, Nunov sin Józue in poglavarji očetov rodov Izraelovih otrok razdelili v dediščino.
2 Their heritage by the Lord's decision, as he gave orders by Moses, for the nine tribes and the half-tribe.
Njihova dediščina je bila po žrebu, kakor je Gospod zapovedal po Mojzesovi roki, za devet rodov in za polovico rodu.
3 For Moses had given their heritage to the two tribes and the half-tribe on the other side of Jordan, but to the Levites he gave no heritage among them.
Kajti Mojzes je na drugi strani Jordana dal dediščino dvema rodovoma in polovici rodu, toda Lévijevcem med njimi ni dal nobene dediščine.
4 Because the children of Joseph were two tribes, Manasseh and Ephraim; and they gave the Levites no part in the land, only towns for their living-places, with the grass-lands for their cattle and for their property.
Kajti od Jožefovih otrok sta bila dva rodova, Manáse in Efrájim. Zato v deželi niso dali nobenega deleža Lévijevcem, razen mest, da prebivajo v njih, z njihovimi predmestji za njihovo živino in za njihovo imetje.
5 As the Lord had given orders to Moses, so the people of Israel did, and they made division of the land.
Kakor je Gospod zapovedal Mojzesu, tako so Izraelovi otroci storili in razdelili so deželo.
6 Then the children of Judah went to Joshua in Gilgal; and Caleb, the son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite, said to him, You have knowledge of what the Lord said to Moses, the man of God, about me and about you in Kadesh-barnea.
Potem so Judovi otroci prišli k Józuetu v Gilgál in Jefunéjev sin Kaléb, Kenázovec, mu je rekel: »Ti poznaš stvar, ki jo je Gospod rekel Božjemu možu Mojzesu glede mene in tebe v Kadeš Barnéi.
7 I was forty years old when Moses, the servant of the Lord, sent me from Kadesh-barnea to make a search through the land; and the account which I gave him was in keeping with his desire.
Štirideset let mi je bilo, ko me je Gospodov služabnik Mojzes poslal iz Kadeš Barnée, da ogledam deželo in ponovno sem mu prinesel besedo, kakor je bila ta v mojem srcu.
8 My brothers, however, who went up with me, made the heart of the people like water: but I was true to the Lord with all my heart.
Kljub temu so moji bratje, ki so z menoj odšli gor, ljudstvu stopili srce, toda jaz sem v celoti sledil Gospodu, svojemu Bogu.
9 And on that day Moses took an oath, saying, Truly the land where your feet have been placed will become a heritage for you and your children for ever, because you have been true to the Lord your God with all your heart.
Mojzes je na ta dan prisegel, rekoč: ›Zagotovo bo dežela, ki si jo pomendral s svojimi stopali, tvoja dediščina in tvojih otrok na veke, ker si v celoti sledil Gospodu, mojemu Bogu.‹
10 And now, as you see, the Lord has kept me safe these forty-five years, from the time when the Lord said this to Moses, while Israel was wandering in the waste land: and now I am eighty-five years old.
Sedaj, glej, Gospod me je obdržal živega, kakor je rekel, teh petinštirideset let, celo odkar je Gospod spregovoril to besedo Mojzesu, medtem ko so Izraelovi otroci tavali po divjini. Sedaj glej, jaz sem danes star petinosemdeset let.
11 And still, I am as strong today as I was when Moses sent me out: as my strength was then, so is it now, for war and for all the business of life.
Še danes sem tako močan, kakor sem bil na dan, ko me je poslal Mojzes. Kakršna je bila moja moč takrat, celo takšna je moja moč za vojno zdaj, tako za odhajanje kakor za prihajanje.
12 So now, give me this hill-country named by the Lord at that time; for you had an account of it then, how the Anakim were there, and great walled towns: it may be that the Lord will be with me, and I will be able to take their land, as the Lord said.
Zdaj mi torej daj to goro, o kateri je Gospod govoril na tisti dan, kajti na tisti dan si slišal kako so bili tam Anákovci in da so bila mesta velika in ograjena. Če bo tako, da bo Gospod z menoj, potem jih bom zmožen pognati ven, kakor je rekel Gospod.«
13 And Joshua gave him his blessing; and he gave Hebron to Caleb, the son of Jephunneh, for his heritage.
Józue ga je blagoslovil in Jefunéjevemu sinu Kalébu v dediščino izročil Hebrón.
14 So Hebron became the heritage of Caleb, the son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite, to this day, because with all his heart he was true to the Lord, the God of Israel.
Hebrón je torej postal dediščina Jefunéjevega sina Kaléba, Kenázovca, do tega dne, zato ker je v celoti sledil Gospodu, Izraelovemu Bogu.
15 In earlier times the name of Hebron had been Kiriath-arba, named after Arba, the greatest of the Anakim. And the land had rest from war.
Ime Hebróna je bilo prej Kirját Arba; ta Arbá je bil velik mož med Anákovci. In dežela je imela počitek pred vojno.
