< Joshua 14 >

1 This is what the sons of Israel possessed in the land of Canaan, which Eleazar, the priest, and Joshua, the son of Nun, and the leaders of the families, by the tribes of Israel, gave to them,
Lafti Israaʼeloonni biyya Kanaʼaan keessatti akka dhaalaatti argatan kan Eleʼaazaar lubichi, Iyyaasuun ilmi Nuunitii fi hangafoonni balbala gosoota Israaʼel isaaniif qoodan kanaa dha.
2 dividing all by lot, just as the Lord had instructed by the hand of Moses, to the nine tribes and to the one half tribe.
Dhaalli isaanii kunis akkuma Waaqayyo Musee ajajetti ixaadhaan gosa sagalii fi walakkaa gosa tokkootiif kenname.
3 For to the two and one half tribes, Moses had given a possession beyond the Jordan, aside from the Levites, who received no land among their brothers.
Museen karaa baʼa Yordaanosiin gosoota lamaanii fi walakkaaf dhaala godhee kennee ture; gosa Lewwiitiif garuu warra kaan gidduutti dhaala tokko illee hin kennine;
4 For by succession, the sons of Joseph, in their place, were divided into two tribes, Manasseh and Ephraim. But the Levites did not receive another portion of land, except cities in which to live, and their suburbs, so as to feed their beasts of burden and cattle.
ilmaan Yoosef gosa lama taʼanii turaniitii; isaanis Minaasee fi Efreem. Lewwonni garuu magaalaawwan keessa jiraatan, bushaayee fi loon isaanii bobbaafatan malee qooda lafaa tokko illee hin arganne.
5 Just as the Lord had commanded Moses, so the sons of Israel did, and they divided the land.
Kanaafuu Israaʼeloonni akkuma Waaqayyo Musee ajajetti biyya sana hiratan.
6 And so, the sons of Judah approached Joshua at Gilgal. And Caleb, the son of Jephone, the Kenizzite, spoke to him: “You know what the Lord said to Moses, the man of God, at Kadesh-barnea, about me and you.
Ergasiis namoonni Yihuudaa Gilgaalitti gara Iyyaasuu dhufan; Kaaleb ilmi Yefunee namichi gosa Qeneez sun akkana jedheen; “Ati waan Waaqayyo Qaadesh Barnee keessatti waaʼee keetii fi waaʼee koo Musee nama Waaqaa sanatti dubbate ni beekta.
7 I was forty years old when Moses, the servant of the Lord, sent me from Kadesh-barnea, so that I might consider the land. And I reported to him what seemed to me to be true.
Yeroo Museen garbichi Waaqayyoo sun akka ani biyyattii basaasuuf Qaadesh Barneetii na erge umuriin koo waggaa afurtama ture. Anis gabaasa waan mirkaneeffadhe sanaa nan fideef;
8 But my brothers, who had ascended with me, broke the heart of the people. And I nevertheless followed the Lord my God.
obboloonni koo warri na wajjin achi dhaqan garuu akka onneen sabaa sodaadhaan baqxu godhan. Taʼus ani garaa koo guutuudhaan Waaqayyo Waaqa koo duukaa buʼe.
9 And Moses swore, on that day, saying: ‘The land that your foot has tread upon shall be your possession, and that of your sons, unto eternity. For you have followed the Lord my God.’
Kanaafuu Museen gaafas akkana jedhee naa kakate; ‘Sababii ati garaa kee guutuudhaan Waaqayyo Waaqa koo duukaa buuteef, lafti miilli kee tuqe sun hamma bara baraatti dhaala keetii fi dhaala ilmaan keetii taʼa.’
10 Therefore, the Lord has granted life to me, just as he promised, even to the present day. It has been forty-five years since the Lord spoke this word to Moses, when Israel was wandering through the wilderness. Today, I am eighty-five years old,
“Egaa Waaqayyo akkuma waadaa gale sanatti, gaafa Museedhaan akkas jedhe kan yeroo Israaʼel gammoojjii keessa asii fi achi jooraa turee jalqabee waggaa afurtamii shan na jiraachiseera. Kanaafuu ani harʼa kunoo waggaa saddeettamii shan guuteera!
11 being just as strong as I was at that time, when I was sent to explore the land. The fortitude in me at that time continues even until today, as much to fight as to march.
Ani harʼas akkuma gaafa Museen na erge sanaa jabaa dha; ani akkuman dur ture sana amma iyyuu duula dhaquuf jabaa dha.
12 Therefore, grant to me this mountain, which the Lord has promised in your hearing also, on which are the Anakim, and cities, great and fortified. Perhaps it may be that the Lord will be with me, and I will be able to destroy them, just as he promised to me.”
Egaa amma biyya gaaraa kan Waaqayyo gaafa sana waadaa naa gale kana naa kenni. Ati mataan kee iyyuu akka Anaaqonni achi keessa jiraatan, akka magaalaawwan isaanii gurguddaa taʼanii fi dallaa jabaan marfaman gaafas dhageesseerta; yoo Waaqayyo na gargaare garuu ani akkuma Waaqayyo jedhe sanatti ariʼee isaan baasa.”
13 And Joshua blessed him, and he delivered Hebron to him as a possession.
Iyyaasuunis Kaaleb ilma Yefunee eebbisee Kebroonin dhaala godhee kenneef.
14 And from then on, Hebron was for Caleb, the son of Jephunneh, the Kenizzite, even to the present day. For he followed the Lord, the God of Israel.
Kanaafuu sababii inni garaa isaa guutuudhaan Waaqayyo Waaqa Israaʼel duukaa buʼeef Kebroon hamma harʼaatti iyyuu dhaala Kaaleb ilma Yefunee namicha gosa Qeneez sanaa taatee hafte.
15 Previously, the name Hebron was called Kiriath-Arba. Adam, the greatest among the Anakim, was laid there. And the land ceased from battles.
Kebroon duraan maqaa namicha Arbaaq jedhamu kan Anaaqota hunda keessaa nama guddaa ture tokkootiin Kiriyaati Arbaaq jedhamtee waamamaa turte. Ergasiis biyyattiin waraana irraa boqotte.
