Joshua 14
1 And, these, are the inheritances which the sons of Israel received in the land of Canaan, —which Eleazar the priest, and Joshua the son of Nun, and the ancestral heads of the tribes of the sons of Israel gave them to inherit.
Maya nĩmo mabũrũri marĩa andũ a Isiraeli maheirwo matuĩke igai rĩao bũrũri-inĩ wa Kaanani, ũrĩa Eleazaru mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai, na Joshua mũrũ wa Nuni, na atongoria a mbarĩ cia mĩhĩrĩga ya Isiraeli maamagaĩire.
2 By lot, was their inheritance divided, —as Yahweh commanded by the hand of Moses, unto the nine tribes and unto the half tribe.
Magai mao maagairwo na njĩra ya gũcuukĩra mĩtĩ kũrĩ o mĩhĩrĩga ĩyo kenda na nuthu, o ta ũrĩa Jehova aathĩte Musa,
3 For Moses had given the two tribes and the half tribe their inheritance over the Jordan, —but, unto the Levites, gave he no inheritance in their midst;
nĩgũkorwo Musa nĩaheete mĩhĩrĩga ĩĩrĩ na nuthu igai rĩao mwena wa irathĩro wa Rũũĩ rwa Jorodani. No rĩrĩ, ndaaheete Alawii igai hamwe na andũ acio angĩ,
4 for the sons of Joseph became two tribes: Manasseh and Ephraim, —so they gave no portion to the Levites in the land, save only cities to dwell in, with the pasture lands thereof, for their cattle and for their substance.
nĩgũkorwo ariũ a Jusufu nĩmatuĩkĩte mĩhĩrĩga ĩĩrĩ, nĩyo mũhĩrĩga wa Manase, na wa Efiraimu. Alawii matiigana kũgaĩrwo ithaka tiga o matũũra ma gũtũũra, na ithaka iria ciarigiicĩirie matũũra macio cia kũrĩithagia ndũũru ciao cia mbũri na ngʼombe.
5 As Yahweh commanded Moses, so, did the sons of Israel, —when they apportioned the land.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio andũ a Isiraeli makĩgayania bũrũri ũcio o ta ũrĩa Jehova aathĩte Musa.
6 Then came near the sons of Judah unto Joshua in Gilgal, and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, the Kenizzite, said unto him, —Thou, knowest the word which Yahweh spake unto Moses the man of God in my behalf and in thine in Kadesh-barnea.
Na rĩrĩ, andũ a mũhĩrĩga wa Juda magĩthiĩ kũrĩ Joshua kũu Giligali, nake Kalebu mũrũ wa Jefune ũrĩa Mũkenizi akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Wee nĩũũĩ ũhoro ũrĩa Jehova eerire Musa mũndũ wa Ngai ũkoniĩ niĩ nawe tũrĩ kũu Kadeshi-Barinea.
7 Forty years old, was I when Moses the servant of Yahweh sent me from Kadesh-barnea to spy out the land, —so I brought him back word, as was in my heart.
Niĩ ndaarĩ na ũkũrũ wa mĩaka mĩrongo ĩna hĩndĩ ĩrĩa Musa ndungata ya Jehova aandũmire kuuma Kadeshi-Barinea thiĩ ngathigaane bũrũri ũcio. Nĩndamũcookeirie ũhoro o ta ũrĩa warĩ ngoro-inĩ yakwa,
8 But, my brethren who had been up with me, made the heart of the people melt, —whereas, I, wholly followed Yahweh my God.
no rĩrĩ, ariũ a ithe witũ arĩa twaambatanĩtie nao nĩmatũmire ngoro cia andũ ciyũrwo nĩ guoya. No o na kũrĩ ũguo-rĩ, niĩ nĩ ndarũmĩrĩire Jehova Ngai wakwa na ngoro yakwa yothe.
9 So then Moses sware on that day saying, Surely, the land on which thy foot hath trodden, unto thee, shall belong, for an inheritance, and unto thy sons, unto times age-abiding, —because thou hast wholly followed Yahweh my God.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, Musa akĩĩhĩta na mwĩhĩtwa mũthenya o ro ũcio akĩnjĩĩra atĩrĩ, ‘Ti-itherũ bũrũri ũcio makinya maku marakinyangire ũgaatuĩka igai rĩaku na rĩa ciana ciaku nginya tene, nĩ ũndũ nĩũrũmĩrĩire Jehova Ngai wakwa na ngoro yaku yothe.’
10 Now, therefore lo! Yahweh hath kept me alive as he spake these forty and five years from the time Yahweh spake this word unto Moses, while Israel journeyed in the desert. Now, therefore lo! I—to-day, am eighty and five years old:
“Na rĩrĩ, o ta ũrĩa Jehova eranĩire nĩageeka-rĩ, nĩandũũrĩtie muoyo mĩaka mĩrongo ĩna na ĩtano kuuma hĩndĩ ĩrĩa aarĩirie Musa akĩmũhe ũhoro ũcio, hĩndĩ ĩyo yothe Isiraeli moorũũraga werũ-inĩ. Na rĩrĩ, ndĩ haha ũmũthĩ, ndĩ na ũkũrũ wa mĩaka mĩrongo ĩnana na ĩtano!
11 I remain, to-day, as courageous as on the day when Moses sent me, as my strength was then, so also my strength is now, —for war, both to go out and to come in.
Ndĩ na hinya ũmũthĩ o ta ũrĩa ndarĩ naguo mũthenya ũrĩa Musa aandũmire; ndĩ na hinya wa gũthiĩ mbaara-inĩ o ta ũrĩa ndaarĩ naguo hĩndĩ ĩyo, hinya wa gũthiĩ rũgendo kana wa kũinũka mũciĩ.
12 Now, therefore, give me this mountain, whereof Yahweh spake, on that day, —for, thou thyself, didst hear, on that day, that, Anakim, were there, and great cities fortified, if so be Yahweh be with me, then shall I dispossess them, as spake Yahweh.
Tondũ ũcio rĩu kĩĩhe bũrũri ũyũ wa irĩma, o ũrĩa Jehova aaririe ũhoro waguo mũthenya ũcio. Wee mwene nĩwaiguire mũthenya ũcio atĩ andũ a Anaki maarĩ kũndũ kũu, namo matũũra mao maarĩ manene na makairigĩrwo na hinya mũno, na rĩrĩ, Jehova angĩkorwo hamwe na niĩ andeithie-rĩ, nĩngũmaingata o ta ũrĩa oigire.”
13 So Joshua blessed him, and gave Hebron unto Caleb son of Jephunneh, for an inheritance.
Nake Joshua agĩkĩrathima Kalebu mũrũ wa Jefune, na akĩmũhe Hebironi gũtuĩke igai rĩake.
14 For this cause, hath Hebron belonged unto Caleb son of Jephunneh the Kenezzite, for an inheritance, unto this day, —because he wholly followed Yahweh, God of Israel.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Hebironi gũtũũire kũrĩ gwa Kalebu mũrũ wa Jefune ũcio Mũkenizi kuuma hĩndĩ ĩyo, nĩ ũndũ nĩarũmĩrĩire Jehova Ngai wa Isiraeli na ngoro yake yothe.
15 Now, the name of Hebron, was formerly, City of Arba, the greatest man among the Anakim, was he. And, the land, had rest from war.
(Hebironi gwetagwo Kiriathu-Ariba nĩ ũndũ gwetanĩtio na Ariba, ũrĩa warĩ mũndũ mũnene mũno gũkĩra arĩa angĩ othe thĩinĩ wa andũ a Anaki). Naguo bũrũri ũkĩhoorera, gũkĩaga mbaara.
