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.
Israelfo mmusuakuw nkae no nyaa nsase wɔ Kanaan sɛ agyapade, sɛnea ɔsɔfo Eleasar, Nun babarima Yosua ne Israel mmusuakuw ntuanofo no de maa wɔn no.
2 By lot, was their inheritance divided, —as Yahweh commanded by the hand of Moses, unto the nine tribes and unto the half tribe.
Saa mmusuakuw akron ne fa yi nam ntontobɔ so na wonyaa wɔn agyapade no sɛnea Awurade faa Mose so hyɛe no.
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;
Na Mose ama mmusuakuw abien ne fa no nsase sɛ wɔn agyapade wɔ Asubɔnten Yordan apuei fam dedaw.
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.
Yosef abusuakuw no de, na abɛyɛ mmusuakuw abien a wɔne Manase ne Efraim. Lewifo no de, wɔamma wɔn asase no mu bi koraa, gye nkurow a wɔbɛtena so ne adidibea a wɔn nguan ne wɔn anantwi bɛkɔ so adidi.
5 As Yahweh commanded Moses, so, did the sons of Israel, —when they apportioned the land.
Enti asase no mu kyekyɛ no, wogyinaa mmara a Awurade de maa Mose no so pɛpɛɛpɛ.
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.
Wotuu asomafo fi Yuda abusuakuw mu a Kaleb a ɔyɛ Kenesini, Yefune babarima di wɔn anim baa Yosua nkyɛn wɔ Gilgal. Kaleb ka kyerɛɛ Yosua se, “Kae asɛm a Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose, Onyankopɔn nipa, a ɛfa me ne wo ho, bere a na yɛwɔ Kades-Barnea no.
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.
Bere a Mose, Awurade somfo no somaa me fi Kades-Barnea sɛ menkɔhwehwɛ Kanaan asase no so no, na madi mfe aduanan. Mesan mʼakyi na mifi koma pa mu bɛkaa nea mihuu nyinaa,
8 But, my brethren who had been up with me, made the heart of the people melt, —whereas, I, wholly followed Yahweh my God.
nanso me nuanom a wɔkaa me ho kɔe no hunahunaa nnipa no, buu wɔn aba mu sɛ wonntu wɔn nan nsi Bɔhyɛ Asase no so. Na me fam mu de, mede me ho nyinaa dii Awurade, me Nyankopɔn akyi.
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.
Enti saa da no, Mose hyɛɛ me bɔ se, ‘Kanaan asase a wokɔnantew so yi bɛyɛ wo ne wʼasefo agyapade sononko daa nyinaa, efisɛ wufi wo koma nyinaa mu adi Awurade, me Nyankopɔn akyi.’
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:
“Afei, sɛnea wuhu yi, Awurade ahwɛ me so yiye mfe aduanan anum fi bere a Mose hyɛɛ saa bɔ yi bere a na Israelfo nenam sare so no. Nnɛ, madi mfe aduɔwɔtwe anum.
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.
Me ho yɛ den nnɛ te sɛ da a Mose somaa me no na metumi atu kwan akɔ ɔko ano mprempren te sɛ kan no.
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.
Enti merebisa na wode bepɔw asase a Awurade de hyɛɛ me bɔ no ama me. Wobɛkae sɛ na yɛyɛ akwansrafo no, yehuu sɛ Anakfo tete nkuropɔn akɛse a wato ɔfasu afa ho mu. Nanso sɛ Awurade ka me ho a, mɛpam wɔn afi asase no so sɛnea Awurade kae no.”
13 So Joshua blessed him, and gave Hebron unto Caleb son of Jephunneh, for an inheritance.
Na Yosua hyiraa Kaleb, Yefune babarima no de Hebron maa no sɛ agyapade.
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.
Hebron da so yɛ Kaleb, Yefune a ɔyɛ Kenesini babarima no asefo de, efisɛ ɔde ne koma nyinaa dii Awurade Israel Nyankopɔn akyi.
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.
Kan no na wɔfrɛ Hebron sɛ Kiriat-Arba. Wɔde Arba yi too Anakfo mu okunini pa ara bi. Na akokoakoko fii asase no so.
