< Joshua 14 >

1 Otu a ka esi kenye ndị Izrel ala Kenan, bụ nke Elieza onye nchụaja, na Joshua, nwa Nun, na ndị ndu ikwu niile dị nʼebo Izrel kere.
And these [are] they [of] the sons of Israel who inherited in the land of Canaan, whom Eleazar the priest, and Joshua son of Nun, and the heads of the fathers of the tribes of the sons of Israel, caused to inherit;
2 Ebo ọbụla nʼime ebo itoolu na ọkara ahụ fọdụrụ nwetara ihe nketa ha site nʼife nza, dịka Onyenwe anyị nyere ya Mosis nʼiwu.
by lot [is] their inheritance, as Jehovah commanded by the hand of Moses, for the nine of the tribes, and the half of the tribe;
3 Ma Mosis enyelarị ebo abụọ na ọkara ala nke ha nʼofe ọzọ nke osimiri Jọdan, nʼakụkụ ọdịda anyanwụ. Ma o kenyeghị ndị Livayị ihe nketa ọbụla nʼetiti ha.
for Moses hath given the inheritance of two of the tribes, and of half of the tribe, beyond the Jordan, and to the Levites he hath not given an inheritance in their midst;
4 Nʼihi na ụmụ Josef dị ebo abụọ, ya bụ Manase na Ifrem. Enyeghị ndị Livayị oke nʼala ahụ, karịa obodo ụfọdụ ebe ha ga-ebi na ebe ịta nri nke anụ ụlọ ha.
for the sons of Joseph hath been two tribes, Manasseh and Ephraim, and they have not given a portion to the Levites in the land, except cities to dwell in, and their suburbs for their cattle, and for their possessions;
5 Ndị Izrel keere ala ahụ nʼusoro dịka iwu Onyenwe anyị nyere Mosis si dị.
as Jehovah commanded Moses, so have the sons of Israel done, and they apportion the land.
6 Nʼoge a, ụmụ Juda zipụrụ ndị ozi ndị jekwuuru Joshua na Gilgal. Kaleb, nwa Jefune, onye Keniz so ha nʼije a. Mgbe ha bịarutere, Kaleb gwara Joshua okwu sị ya, “I chetakwara okwu ahụ Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis onye nke Chineke banyere gị na banyere mụ onwe m, mgbe anyị nọ na Kadesh Banea?
And the sons of Judah come nigh unto Joshua in Gilgal, and Caleb son of Jephunneh the Kenezzite saith unto him, 'Thou hast known the word that Jehovah hath spoken unto Moses the man of God, concerning me and concerning thee in Kadesh-Barnea:
7 Agbara m iri afọ anọ nʼoge ahụ Mosis onyeozi Onyenwe anyị si na Kadesh Banea zipụ anyị ịga iledo ala ndị Kenan anya. Mgbe anyị lọghachiri, agwara m ya okwu, kọwaara ya ihe m chere nʼobi m bụ eziokwu.
a son of forty years [am] I in Moses, servant of Jehovah, sending me from Kadesh-Barnea, to spy the land, and I bring him back word as with my heart;
8 Ma ụmụnna anyị, ndị anyị na ha so gaa, menyere ụmụ Izrel egwu, mee ka obi ha daa mba ịchọ ịbanye nʼala ahụ e kwere anyị na nkwa. Ma ebe m nọgidere jiri obi m niile soro Onyenwe anyị Chineke m,
and my brethren who have gone up with me have caused the heart of the people to melt, and I have been fully after Jehovah my God;
9 Mosis ṅụrụ iyi sị m, ‘Ebe ọ bụ na i ji obi gị niile soro Onyenwe anyị Chineke m, ala ahụ i jegharịrị ije nʼelu ya ga-abụ ihe nketa nye gị na ụmụ gị ruo mgbe ebighị ebi.’
and Moses sweareth in that day, saying, If not — the land on which thy foot hath trodden, to thee it is for inheritance, and to thy sons — to the age, for thou hast been fully after Jehovah my God.
10 “Ugbu a, dịka Onyenwe anyị kwere na nkwa, o meela ka m dị ndụ. Nke a bụ iri afọ anọ na ise kemgbe Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis okwu ndị a, mgbe Izrel na-awagharị nʼọzara. Ma ugbu a, lee, agbaala m iri afọ asatọ na ise taa.
'And, now, lo, Jehovah hath kept me alive, as He hath spoken, these forty and five years, since Jehovah spake this word unto Moses, when Israel went in the wilderness; and now, lo, I [am] to-day a son of five and eighty years;
11 M dị ike taa dịka m dị nʼụbọchị ahụ Mosis zipụrụ m. Dịka ike m dị mgbe ahụ, adịkwa m ike ugbu a, ịpụ buo agha ma batakwa
yet [am] I to-day strong as in the day of Moses' sending me; as my power then, so [is] my power now, for battle, and to go out, and to come in.
12 Ya mere, nye m ala ugwu ugwu ahụ Onyenwe anyị kwere m nkwa nʼụbọchị ahụ. Gị onwe gị nụrụ nʼoge ahụ na ụmụ Anak bi nʼebe ahụ, na obodo ha bukwara ibu, na e jikwa mgbidi e wusiri ike gbaa ha gburugburu. Ma site nʼinyeaka Onyenwe anyị, aga m achụpụ ha dịka Onyenwe anyị kwuru.”
'And now, give to me this hill-country, of which Jehovah spake in that day, for thou didst hear in that day, for Anakim [are] there, and cities, great, fenced; if so be Jehovah [is] with me, then I have dispossessed them, as Jehovah hath spoken.'
13 Nʼihi nke a, Joshua gọziri Kaleb nwa Jefune. O nyere ya obodo Hebrọn ka ọ bụrụ ihe nketa ya.
And Joshua blesseth him, and giveth Hebron to Caleb son of Jephunneh for an inheritance,
14 Ya mere, obodo Hebrọn ghọrọ ihe nketa Kaleb nwa Jefune onye Keniz bido mgbe ahụ, nʼihi na o ji obi ya niile soro Onyenwe anyị, Chineke Izrel.
therefore hath Hebron been to Caleb son of Jephunneh the Kenezzite for an inheritance unto this day, because that he was fully after Jehovah, God of Israel;
15 Tupu oge a, aha a na-akpọ Hebrọn bụ Kiriat Aaba, nke pụtara Obodo Aaba. Aaba bụkwa aha nwoke kachasị ịdị ukwuu nʼetiti ndị Anak niile. Site nʼoge a gaa nʼihu, e nwere udo nʼala ahụ niile.
and the name of Hebron formerly [is] Kirjath-Arba (he [is] the great man among the Anakim); and the land hath rest from war.
