< Joshua 14 >

1 Eleazar the Supreme Priest, Joshua, and the leaders of the [twelve] tribes repeated what land would be allotted to each of the Israeli tribes in Canaan.
Pa inge acn ma mwet tol Eleazar, ac Joshua wen natul Nun, ac mwet kol lun kais sie sou elos kitalik nu sin sruf lun mwet Israel tuh in ma lalos. Acn inge oan Canaan, lefahl roto in Infacl Jordan.
2 Yahweh had told Moses many years previously in what way he wanted the division of the land to be decided. Moses had already declared that two and a half tribes would be allotted land on the east side of the Jordan [River]. Joseph had two sons, Manasseh and Ephraim. [Half of the tribe descended from Manasseh was allotted land on the east side of the Jordan, along with the tribes of Reuben and Gad]. The people belonging to the nine and a half other tribes [on the west side of the Jordan River] threw (lots/stones that had been marked) to decide which land each tribe would receive. The tribe of Levi was not allotted any land. They received only towns [that already existed], towns in which to live, and (pastures/fields of grass) for their animals.
Kitakatelik lun acn inge nu sin sruf eu tafu lefahl roto in Infacl Jordan orekla ke fa, oana ma LEUM GOD El tuh sapkin nu sel Moses.

Moses el nuna sang tari lefahl kutulap in Infacl Jordan nu sin sruf luo tafu, tusruktu wangin acn el sang nu sin sruf lal Levi.

Tulik natul Joseph tuh kitakatelik nu ke sruf luo — Manasseh ac Ephraim. A tulik natul Levi tuh tia wi eis acn, sayen acn in muta ac acn in tohf kosro natulos.

Ouinge mwet Israel elos tuh kitalik acn uh oana ma LEUM GOD El tuh sapkin nu sel Moses.
6 One day some men from the tribe of Judah went to Joshua while he and all the Israelis were at Gilgal. Among those men was Jephunneh’s son Caleb. He said to Joshua, “[I am sure that] you remember what Yahweh said to the prophet Moses about you and me when we were at Kadesh-Barnea.
Sie len ah kutu mwet ke sruf lal Judah elos tuku nu yorol Joshua nu in acn Gilgal. Sie selos pa Caleb, wen natul Jephunneh mwet Keniz. El fahk nu sel Joshua, “Kom etu tari ma LEUM GOD El tuh fahk nu sel Moses in acn Kadesh Barnea keiktal.
7 I was 40 years old at that time. Moses sent me [and you and some other men] to explore this land. When we returned, I gave to Moses a true report [IDM] about what we had seen.
Nga yac angngaul ke pacl se Moses, mwet kulansap lun LEUM GOD, El tuh supweyu Kadesh Barnea lac in kalngei facl se inge. Ke nga tuh foloko nga fahkak nufon nunak luk ke ma nga tuh liye we ah.
8 The other men who went with us [gave a report that] caused the people to be afraid [IDM]. But I fully/completely believed [that] Yahweh [would enable us to take the land from the people who lived there].
Tusruktu mwet ma tuh wiyu som ah, elos tuh fahk na kas in akmunasye nunak lun mwet ah. Ne ouinge, nga tuh tu na ku ke lulalfongi luk in LEUM GOD luk.
9 So on that day, Moses solemnly promised me, ‘[Some of] the land on which you walked will become yours. It will belong to your descendants forever. I am giving it to you because you fully trusted in Yahweh, my God.’
Ke sripa se inge Moses el tuh wulela mu acn nukewa nga fahla fac, ac fah ma luk ac tulik nutik.
10 “Now Yahweh has done for me what he promised. Forty-five years have passed since Moses said that to me during the time that we were wandering around in the desert. And just like Yahweh promised, he has kept me alive and well all during that time. Now I am eighty-five years old.
Inge yac akangngaul limekosr lac tukun pacl se LEUM GOD El tuh fahk ma inge nu sel Moses. In pacl sac mwet Israel elos srakna fufahsryesr yen mwesis. Na LEUM GOD El sruokya moul luk oana el tuh wulela, ac liye, misenge nga yac oalngoul limekosr.
11 I am as strong today as I was on the day that Moses sent me [to explore this land]. I am as ready to fight now as I was then.
Nga srakna ku misenge, oapana nga tuh ku ke pacl se Moses el tuh supweyula ah. Nga srakna ku in mweun ku oru kutena ma.
12 So please give me the hilly area that Yahweh promised to give to me at that time long ago. At that time, you heard [me say] that the Amalek people-group lived there. You heard me say that their cities were large, and they had walls around them [to protect them from attacks by their enemies]. But now, Yahweh will help me, and as a result I will force them to leave, just like Yahweh said would happen.”
Ke ma inge, ase nu sik acn fineol uh, oana ke LEUM GOD El tuh wulema nu sik ke len se nga ac mwet wiyu tuh fahkak ke ma kut liye ah. Kut tuh fahk nu sum lah mwet na yohk pisa ac ku, pangpang mwet Anakim, elos muta we, ac siti selos arulana yohk ac kuhlusyukyak. Sahp LEUM GOD El ac fah wiyu, ac nga fah ku in ukwalosyak oana ke LEUM GOD El tuh fahk ah.”
13 So Joshua [asked God to] bless Caleb, and he gave to Caleb [the city of] Hebron.
Joshua el akinsewowoyal Caleb, wen natul Jephunneh, ac sang siti Hebron tuh in ma lal.
14 Previously that city was called Kiriath-Arba, because Arba was the greatest man among the Amalek people-group. Hebron still belongs to the descendants of Caleb, because Caleb completely/fully trusted in Yahweh, the God whom we Israelis [worship], and obeyed him. After that happened, there was (peace/no battles) in [Canaan] land [for many years].
Siti se inge srakna ma lun tulik natul Caleb, wen natul Jephunneh su mwet Keniz, mweyen Caleb el tuh tu na ku ke lulalfongi lal in LEUM GOD lun Israel.
Tuh pangpang acn se inge siti sel Arba meet liki itukyang lal Caleb. (Arba pa mwet se pwengpeng emeet sin mwet Anakim.) Na acn we mongla liki mweun.
