Yoshuwa 14
1 Ga wuraren da Isra’ilawa suka sami gādo a ƙasar Kan’ana waɗanda Eleyazar firist, Yoshuwa ɗan Nun da kuma shugabannin iyalai kabila-kabila na Isra’ila suka raba musu.
And these are the heritages which the children of Israel took in the land of Canaan, which Eleazar, the priest, and Joshua, the son of Nun, and the heads of the tribes of the children of Israel, gave out to them;
2 Ta wurin yin ƙuri’a aka raba wa kabilan nan tara da rabi, yadda Ubangiji ya umarta ta wurin Musa.
Their heritage by the Lord's decision, as he gave orders by Moses, for the nine tribes and the half-tribe.
3 Musa ya ba wa kabilan biyu da rabin nan gādonsu gabashin Urdun, amma bai ba wa Lawiyawa gādo a cikin sauran ba,
For Moses had given their heritage to the two tribes and the half-tribe on the other side of Jordan, but to the Levites he gave no heritage among them.
4 gama’ya’yan Yusuf sun zama kabilu biyu, Manasse da Efraim. Ba a ba Lawiyawa gādon ba sai dai garuruwan da aka ba su su zauna a ciki, da wurin kiwo mai kyau domin dabbobinsu.
Because the children of Joseph were two tribes, Manasseh and Ephraim; and they gave the Levites no part in the land, only towns for their living-places, with the grass-lands for their cattle and for their property.
5 Haka Isra’ilawa suka raba ƙasar, yadda Ubangiji ya umarci Musa.
As the Lord had given orders to Moses, so the people of Israel did, and they made division of the land.
6 Mutanen Yahuda kuma suka je wurin Yoshuwa a Gilgal, sai Kaleb ɗan Yefunne Bakenizze ya ce wa Yoshuwa, “Ka san abin da Ubangiji ya gaya wa Musa, mutumin Allah a Kadesh Barneya game da kai da ni.
Then the children of Judah went to Joshua in Gilgal; and Caleb, the son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite, said to him, You have knowledge of what the Lord said to Moses, the man of God, about me and about you in Kadesh-barnea.
7 Ina da shekara arba’in lokacin da Musa bawan Ubangiji ya aike ni zuwa Kadesh Barneya in leƙi asirin ƙasar. Na kuwa kawo masa rahoto daidai yadda na ga ƙasar,
I was forty years old when Moses, the servant of the Lord, sent me from Kadesh-barnea to make a search through the land; and the account which I gave him was in keeping with his desire.
8 amma’yan’uwana waɗanda muka je tare su suka ba da rahoton da ya sa zukatan mutane suka narke don tsoro. Ni kam na bi Ubangiji Allah da dukan zuciyata.
My brothers, however, who went up with me, made the heart of the people like water: but I was true to the Lord with all my heart.
9 Saboda haka a ranan nan Musa ya rantse mini cewa, ‘Ƙasar da ka taka za tă zama ƙasarka ta gādo kai da’ya’yanka har abada, domin ka bi Ubangiji Allahna da dukan zuciyarka.’
And on that day Moses took an oath, saying, Truly the land where your feet have been placed will become a heritage for you and your children for ever, because you have been true to the Lord your God with all your heart.
10 “Ga shi, kamar yadda Ubangiji ya yi alkawari, ya bar ni da rai har na ƙara shekaru arba’in da biyar tun daga lokacin da ya gaya wa Musa wannan, a lokacin da Isra’ilawa suke yawo a cikin jeji. Ga ni nan yau shekaruna tamanin da biyar!
And now, as you see, the Lord has kept me safe these forty-five years, from the time when the Lord said this to Moses, while Israel was wandering in the waste land: and now I am eighty-five years old.
11 Ina nan da ƙarfina kamar yadda nake da ƙarfi a lokacin da Musa ya aike ni; zan iya fita zuwa yaƙi da ƙwazo yanzu kamar yadda nake zuwa a dā.
And still, I am as strong today as I was when Moses sent me out: as my strength was then, so is it now, for war and for all the business of life.
12 Yanzu sai ka ba ni wannan ƙasar da take kan tudu wadda Ubangiji ya yi alkawari zai ba ni a ranan nan. Kai ma ka ji a lokacin, yadda Anakawa suke a can, biranensu manya ne kuma sun kewaye su sosai, amma na sani Ubangiji zai taimake ni, zan kore su kamar yadda ya faɗa.”
So now, give me this hill-country named by the Lord at that time; for you had an account of it then, how the Anakim were there, and great walled towns: it may be that the Lord will be with me, and I will be able to take their land, as the Lord said.
13 Sai Yoshuwa ya sa wa Kaleb ɗan Yefunne albarka, ya ba shi Hebron.
And Joshua gave him his blessing; and he gave Hebron to Caleb, the son of Jephunneh, for his heritage.
14 Saboda haka Hebron ta zama ƙasar Kaleb ɗan Yefunne Bakenizze tun daga lokacin nan, domin ya bi Ubangiji, Allah na Isra’ila da dukan zuciyarsa.
So Hebron became the heritage of Caleb, the son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite, to this day, because with all his heart he was true to the Lord, the God of Israel.
15 (Dā a kan kira wannan Hebron, Kiriyat Arba. Wannan Arba kuwa shi ne wani katon mutum a cikin Anakawa.) Sa’an nan ƙasar ta huta daga yaƙi.
In earlier times the name of Hebron had been Kiriath-arba, named after Arba, the greatest of the Anakim. And the land had rest from war.
