< Jozye 14 >
1 Men tè yo te separe bay moun pèp Izrayèl yo. Se Eleaza, prèt la, ak Jozye, pitit gason Noun lan, ansanm ak tout chèf fanmi nan tout branch pèp Izrayèl yo ki te bay chak fanmi pòsyon pa yo.
These also are the places which the children of Israel inherited in the land of Canaan, which Eleazar the Priest, and Ioshua the sonne of Nun and the chiefe fathers of the tribes of the children of Israel, distributed to them,
2 Jan Seyè a te bay Moyiz lòd la, yo te tire osò devan Seyè a pou yo te ka konnen ki pòsyon ki tapral pou nèf branch fanmi ki te rete yo ak lòt mwatye branch nan fanmi Manase a.
By the lot of their inheritance, as the Lord had commanded by the hande of Moses, to giue to the nine tribes, and the halfe tribe.
3 Moyiz te gen tan bay de branch fanmi ak mwatye nan yon twazyèm branch fanmi pòsyon pa yo lòt bò larivyè Jouden. Men, li pa t' bay moun fanmi Levi yo ankenn pòsyon nan tè sa yo.
For Moses had giuen inheritance vnto two tribes and an halfe tribe, beyond Iorde: but vnto the Leuites he gaue none inheritance among them.
4 Fanmi Jozèf la te fè de branch: yonn pou Manase, yonn pou Efrayim. Moun Levi yo pa t' resevwa ankenn pòsyon nan tè a pou yo. Men yo te ba yo kèk lavil pou yo te rete ak savann toupre lavil yo pou yo gade bèt ak zannimo.
For the childre of Ioseph were two tribes, Manasseh and Ephraim: therefore they gaue no part vnto the Leuites in the lande, saue cities to dwell in, with the suburbes of the same for their beastes and their substance.
5 Se konsa, moun pèp Izrayèl yo te separe peyi a jan Seyè a te bay Moyiz lòd fè l' la.
As the Lord had commanded Moses, so the children of Israel did when they deuided the land.
6 Moun branch fanmi Jida yo al jwenn Jozye nan kan Gilgal la. Kalèb pitit gason Jefoune, nan fanmi Kenaz la, di li: -Ou konnen sa Seyè a te di Moyiz, sèvitè Bondye a, sou ou ak sou mwen lè li te lavil Kadès-Banea.
Then the children of Iudah came vnto Ioshua in Gilgal: and Caleb the sonne of Iephunneh the Kenezite saide vnto him, Thou knowest what the Lord saide vnto Moses the man of God, concerning me and thee in Kadesh-barnea.
7 Mwen te gen karantan lè Moyiz, sèvitè Seyè a, rete lavil Kadès-Banea, li voye m' al vizite tout peyi sa a. Lè m' tounen, mwen fè l' yon bon rapò dapre sa m' te wè.
Fourtie yeere olde was I, when Moses the seruant of the Lord sent me from Kadesh-barnea to espie the land, and I brought him word againe, as I thought in mine heart.
8 Moun ki te moute avè m' yo pran dekouraje pèp la. Men mwen menm, mwen te fè tou sa Seyè a, Bondye mwen an, te vle m' fè.
But my brethren that went vp with me, discouraged the heart of the people: yet I followed still the Lord my God.
9 Lè sa a, Moyiz fè m' pwomès sa a, li di m': Ou wè ou menm, ou fè tou sa Seyè a te vle ou fè. Se poutèt sa y'a ba ou tout kote ou mete pye ou yo pou ou ak pou tout ras ou apre ou.
Wherefore Moses sware the same day, saying, Certainely the land whereon thy feete haue troden, shalbe thine inheritance, and thy childrens for euer, because thou hast followed constantly the Lord my God.
10 Gade! Seyè a kenbe pwomès li, li pa kite m' gen tan mouri. Sa te fè deja karannsenkan depi Seyè a te di Moyiz sa. Lè sa a, pèp Izrayèl la t'ap moute desann nan dezè a. Koulye a mwen gen katrevensenkan.
Therefore beholde nowe, the Lord hath kept me aliue, as he promised: this is the fourtie and fift yeere since the Lord spake this thing vnto Moses, while the children of Israel wandered in the wildernes: and nowe loe, I am this day foure score and fiue yeere olde:
11 Men, mwen santi m' vanyan gason jòdi a tankou lè Moyiz te voye m' al vizite peyi a. Mwen santi mwen ka goumen, mwen ka regle tout zafè m' jan m' te konn fè l' lè sa a.
And yet am as strong at this time, as I was when Moses sent me: as strong as I was then, so strong am I nowe, either for warre, or for gouernment.
12 Se poutèt sa, mwen mande ou pou ou ban mwen mòn Seyè a te pwomèt mwen jou sa a. Ou te rive konnen se yon bann gwonèg bèl wotè yo rele anakim ki t'ap viv la. Yo te gen anpil gwo lavil ki te byen pwoteje ak ranpa. Men, mwen kwè Seyè a pral kanpe avè m'. L'a ede m' pran peyi a nan men yo jan li te di l' la.
Nowe therefore giue me this mountaine whereof ye Lord spake in that day (for thou heardest in that day, how the Anakims were there, and the cities great and walled) if so be the Lord will be with me, that I may driue them out, as the Lord said.
13 Lè sa a, Jozye bay Kalèb, pitit gason Jefoune a, benediksyon, epi li ba li pòsyon tè Ebwon an pou pòsyon pa li.
Then Ioshua blessed him, and gaue vnto Caleb the sonne of Iephunneh, Hebron for an inheritance.
14 Jouk koulye a, Ebwon rete pou Kalèb ak pou moun ras fanmi li yo, paske Kalèb te fè tou sa Seyè a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la, te vle l' fè.
Hebron therefore became the inheritance of Caleb the sonne of Iephunneh the Kenezite, vnto this day: because he followed constantly the Lord God of Israel.
15 Nan tan lontan, yo te rele lavil Ebwon an Kiriyat aba. Aba sa a, se li ki te pi gwonèg nan tout ras moun Anak yo. Depi apre lè sa a, peyi a t'ap viv ak kè poze. Pa t' gen goumen ankò.
And the name of Hebron was before time, Kiriath-arba: which Arba was a great man amog the Anakims: thus the land ceassed from warre.
