< Jozue 14 >
1 Nzokande, tala mabele oyo bana ya Isalaele bazwaki lokola libula kati na mokili ya Kanana; mabele oyo Nganga-Nzambe Eleazari; Jozue, mwana mobali ya Nuni, mpe bakambi ya bituka ya mabota ya bana ya Isalaele bakabolelaki bango.
And these [are that] which they inherited [the] people of Israel in [the] land of Canaan which they gave as a possession them Eleazar the priest and Joshua [the] son of Nun and [the] leaders of [the] fathers of the tribes of [the] people of Israel.
2 Bakabolelaki bango yango na nzela ya zeke, ndenge Yawe atindaki na nzela ya Moyize kati na mabota libwa mpe ndambo ya libota.
By [the] allotted portion of inheritance their just as he had commanded Yahweh by [the] hand of Moses for [the] nine the tribes and [the] half of the tribe.
3 Moyize apesaki epai ya mabota mibale mpe ndambo ya libota mabele na bango, na ngambo ya este ya Yordani; kasi epai ya bato ya libota ya Levi, apesaki mabele te kati na mabota mosusu;
For he had given Moses [the] inheritance of [the] two the tribes and [the] half of the tribe from [the] other side of the Jordan and to the Levites not he had given an inheritance in midst of them.
4 pamba te bana mibali ya Jozefi, Manase mpe Efrayimi, bakomaki mabota mibale. Bato ya libota ya Levi bazwaki libula te kati na mokili longola kaka bingumba ya kovanda elongo na mabele na yango mpo na bibwele mpe biloko na bango.
For they were [the] descendants of Joseph two tribes Manasseh and Ephraim and not people gave a portion to the Levites in the land that except cities to dwell in and pasture lands their for livestock their and for possession[s] their.
5 Boye, bana ya Isalaele bakabolaki mokili, ndenge kaka Yawe atindaki Moyize.
Just as he had commanded Yahweh Moses so they did [the] people of Israel and they apportioned the land.
6 Bato ya libota ya Yuda bayaki epai ya Jozue, na Giligali. Kalebi, mwana mobali ya Yefune, moto ya Kenizi, ayebisaki Jozue: « Oyebi malamu makambo oyo Yawe alobaki na Moyize, moto na Nzambe, na Kadeshi-Barinea na tina na yo mpe na tina na ngai.
And they approached [the] descendants of Judah to Joshua at Gilgal and he said to him Caleb [the] son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite you you know the word which he spoke Yahweh to Moses [the] man of God on causes my and on causes your at Kadesh Barnea.
7 Nazalaki nanu na mibu tuku minei tango Moyize, mowumbu na Yawe, atindaki ngai wuta na Kadeshi-Barinea mpo na kononga mokili. Mpe napesaki ye sango kolanda ndenge motema na ngai ezalaki kondima.
[was] a son of Forty year[s] I when sent Moses [the] servant of Yahweh me from Kadesh Barnea to spy out the land and I brought back him a word just as with heart my.
8 Bandeko na ngai, oyo tomataki na bango elongo balembisaki bato nzoto; nzokande ngai nalandaki bobele Yawe, Nzambe na ngai, na motema mobimba.
And brothers my who they went up with me they melted [the] heart of the people and I I filled after Yahweh God my.
9 Na mokolo wana, Moyize alapaki ndayi: ‹ Solo, nalapi ndayi ete mokili oyo matambe na yo esilaki konyata ekozala libula na yo mpe ya bakitani na yo mpo na libela, pamba te olandaki Yawe, Nzambe na ngai, na motema mobimba. ›
And he swore an oath Moses on the day that saying if not the land which it trod foot your on it of you it will become an inheritance and of children your until perpetuity for you filled after Yahweh God my.
10 Sik’oyo tala, eleki mibu tuku minei na mitano oyo Yawe abateli ngai na bomoi, wuta tango alobaki liloba oyo epai ya Moyize tango bana ya Isalaele bazalaki kotambola na esobe. Boye, ndenge nazali awa lelo, nakokisi mibu tuku mwambe na mitano ya mbotama,
And now here! he has let live Yahweh - me just as he spoke this forty and five year[s] from then he spoke Yahweh the word this to Moses when it walked Israel in the wilderness and now here! I this day [am] a son of five and eighty year[s].
11 mpe nazali na makasi lokola na tango oyo Moyize atindaki ngai; nazali na nguya ya kobunda bitumba ndenge kaka nazalaki na yango na kala.
Still I this day [am] strong just as on [the] day sent me Moses as strength my then and as strength my now for the battle and to go out and to come.
12 Pesa ngai mokili ya bangomba wana oyo Yawe alakaki ngai na mokolo wana. Mokolo wana, yo moko oyokaki ete bato ya Anaki bazalaki kovanda kuna mpe bingumba na bango ezalaki minene mpe batonga makasi. Kasi na lisungi na Yawe, nakobengana bango ndenge Yawe alobaki. »
And therefore give! to me the hill country this which he spoke Yahweh on the day that for you you heard on the day that that Anakites [were] there and cities large fortified perhaps Yahweh with me and I will dispossess them just as he spoke Yahweh.
13 Jozue apambolaki Kalebi, mwana mobali ya Yefune, mpe apesaki ye engumba Ebron lokola libula.
And he blessed him Joshua and he gave Hebron to Caleb [the] son of Jephunneh to an inheritance.
14 Boye, wuta na tango yango, engumba Ebron ekomaki libula ya Kalebi, mwana mobali ya Yefune, moto ya Kenizi; mpo ete alandaki Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele, na motema mobimba.
There-fore it became Hebron of Caleb [the] son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite an inheritance until the day this because that he filled after Yahweh [the] God of Israel.
15 Liboso, bazalaki kobenga Ebron « Kiriati-Ariba. » Ariba azalaki elombe oyo alekaki bato nyonso ya Anaki na makasi. Bongo, mokili ekomaki na kimia mpe bitumba ezalaki lisusu te.
And [the] name of Hebron before [was] Kiriath Arba [who was] the man great among the Anakites he and the land it was at peace from war.
