Joshua 14
1 And this is what the children of Israel inherited in the land of Canaan, which Eleazar the priest, and Joshua the son of Nun, and the chief fathers of the tribes of the children of Israel, allotted for inheritance to them:
Otu a ka esi kenye ndị Izrel ala Kenan, bụ nke Elieza onye nchụaja, na Joshua, nwa Nun, na ndị ndu ikwu niile dị nʼebo Izrel kere.
2 their inheritance was by lot, as Jehovah had commanded by Moses, for the nine tribes, and the half tribe.
Ebo ọbụla nʼime ebo itoolu na ọkara ahụ fọdụrụ nwetara ihe nketa ha site nʼife nza, dịka Onyenwe anyị nyere ya Mosis nʼiwu.
3 For Moses had given the inheritance of the two tribes and the half tribe beyond the Jordan, but to the Levites he had given no inheritance among them.
Ma Mosis enyelarị ebo abụọ na ọkara ala nke ha nʼofe ọzọ nke osimiri Jọdan, nʼakụkụ ọdịda anyanwụ. Ma o kenyeghị ndị Livayị ihe nketa ọbụla nʼetiti ha.
4 For the children of Joseph were two tribes, Manasseh and Ephraim; and they gave no part to the Levites in the land, save cities to dwell in, and their suburbs for their cattle and for their substance.
Nʼihi na ụmụ Josef dị ebo abụọ, ya bụ Manase na Ifrem. Enyeghị ndị Livayị oke nʼala ahụ, karịa obodo ụfọdụ ebe ha ga-ebi na ebe ịta nri nke anụ ụlọ ha.
5 As Jehovah had commanded Moses, so the children of Israel did, and they divided the land.
Ndị Izrel keere ala ahụ nʼusoro dịka iwu Onyenwe anyị nyere Mosis si dị.
6 Then the children of Judah came near to Joshua in Gilgal, and Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite said to him, Thou knowest the word that Jehovah spoke to Moses the man of God, concerning me and thee, in Kadesh-barnea.
Nʼoge a, ụmụ Juda zipụrụ ndị ozi ndị jekwuuru Joshua na Gilgal. Kaleb, nwa Jefune, onye Keniz so ha nʼije a. Mgbe ha bịarutere, Kaleb gwara Joshua okwu sị ya, “I chetakwara okwu ahụ Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis onye nke Chineke banyere gị na banyere mụ onwe m, mgbe anyị nọ na Kadesh Banea?
7 Forty years old was I when Moses the servant of Jehovah sent me from Kadesh-barnea to search out the land; and I brought him word again as it was in my heart.
Agbara m iri afọ anọ nʼoge ahụ Mosis onyeozi Onyenwe anyị si na Kadesh Banea zipụ anyị ịga iledo ala ndị Kenan anya. Mgbe anyị lọghachiri, agwara m ya okwu, kọwaara ya ihe m chere nʼobi m bụ eziokwu.
8 And my brethren that had gone up with me made the heart of the people melt; but I wholly followed Jehovah my God.
Ma ụmụnna anyị, ndị anyị na ha so gaa, menyere ụmụ Izrel egwu, mee ka obi ha daa mba ịchọ ịbanye nʼala ahụ e kwere anyị na nkwa. Ma ebe m nọgidere jiri obi m niile soro Onyenwe anyị Chineke m,
9 And Moses swore on that day, saying, The land whereon thy feet have trodden shall assuredly be thine inheritance, and thy children's for ever! for thou hast wholly followed Jehovah my God.
Mosis ṅụrụ iyi sị m, ‘Ebe ọ bụ na i ji obi gị niile soro Onyenwe anyị Chineke m, ala ahụ i jegharịrị ije nʼelu ya ga-abụ ihe nketa nye gị na ụmụ gị ruo mgbe ebighị ebi.’
10 And now behold, Jehovah has kept me alive, as he said, these forty-five years, since Jehovah spoke this word to Moses, when Israel wandered in the wilderness; and now behold, I am this day eighty-five years old.
“Ugbu a, dịka Onyenwe anyị kwere na nkwa, o meela ka m dị ndụ. Nke a bụ iri afọ anọ na ise kemgbe Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis okwu ndị a, mgbe Izrel na-awagharị nʼọzara. Ma ugbu a, lee, agbaala m iri afọ asatọ na ise taa.
11 I am still this day strong, as in the day that Moses sent me: as my strength was then, even so is my strength now, for war, both to go out and to come in.
M dị ike taa dịka m dị nʼụbọchị ahụ Mosis zipụrụ m. Dịka ike m dị mgbe ahụ, adịkwa m ike ugbu a, ịpụ buo agha ma batakwa
12 And now give me this mountain, of which Jehovah spoke in that day; for thou heardest in that day that Anakim are there, and great fortified cities. If so be Jehovah shall be with me, then I shall dispossess them, as Jehovah said.
Ya mere, nye m ala ugwu ugwu ahụ Onyenwe anyị kwere m nkwa nʼụbọchị ahụ. Gị onwe gị nụrụ nʼoge ahụ na ụmụ Anak bi nʼebe ahụ, na obodo ha bukwara ibu, na e jikwa mgbidi e wusiri ike gbaa ha gburugburu. Ma site nʼinyeaka Onyenwe anyị, aga m achụpụ ha dịka Onyenwe anyị kwuru.”
13 And Joshua blessed him, and gave Hebron to Caleb the son of Jephunneh for an inheritance.
Nʼihi nke a, Joshua gọziri Kaleb nwa Jefune. O nyere ya obodo Hebrọn ka ọ bụrụ ihe nketa ya.
14 Hebron therefore became the inheritance of Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite to this day, because he wholly followed Jehovah the God of Israel.
Ya mere, obodo Hebrọn ghọrọ ihe nketa Kaleb nwa Jefune onye Keniz bido mgbe ahụ, nʼihi na o ji obi ya niile soro Onyenwe anyị, Chineke Izrel.
15 Now the name of Hebron before was Kirjath-Arba; the great man among the Anakim. And the land rested from war.
Tupu oge a, aha a na-akpọ Hebrọn bụ Kiriat Aaba, nke pụtara Obodo Aaba. Aaba bụkwa aha nwoke kachasị ịdị ukwuu nʼetiti ndị Anak niile. Site nʼoge a gaa nʼihu, e nwere udo nʼala ahụ niile.
