Josoa 14
1 Ary izao no nolovan’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely teo amin’ ny tany Kanana, izay nampandovain’ i Eleazara mpisorona sy Josoa, zanak’ i Nona, ary ny loholon’ ny firenen’ i Zanak’ Isiraely;
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 tamin’ ny filokana no nahazoany ny lovany, araka izay efa nandidian i Jehovah an’ i Mosesy ny amin’ ny firenena sivy sy sasany.
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 Fa efa nomen’ i Mosesy lova tany an-dafin’ i Jordana ny firenena roa sy sasany; fa ny taranak’ i Levy tsy mba nomeny lova teo aminy.
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 Fa firenena roa ny taranak’ i Josefa, dia Manase sy Efraima; ary tsy mba nomeny anjara teo amin’ ny tany ny taranak’ i Levy, afa-tsy ny tanàna honenany sy ny tany manodidina ny tanànany ho an’ ny omby aman’ ondriny sy ny fananany.
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 Araka izay efa nandidian’ i Jehovah an’ i Mosesy no nataon’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely, ka dia nizara ny tany izy.
As the Lord had commanded Moses, so the children of Israel did when they deuided the land.
6 Dia nankany amin’ i Josoa tany Gilgala ny taranak’ i Joda; ary Kaleba, zanak’ i Jefone, Kenizita, nanao taminy hoe: Fantatrao ny teny izay nolazain’ i Jehovah tamin’ i Mosesy, lehilahin’ Andriamanitra, ny amiko sy ianao tany Kadesi-barnea.
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 Efa-polo taona no andro niainako, fony aho nirahin’ i Mosesy, mpanompon’ i Jehovah, niala tany Kadesi-barnea hisafo ny tany; dia niverina aho nitondra teny taminy araka izay tao am-poko.
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 Kanefa ireo rahalahiko izay niara-niakatra tamiko dia nanaketraka ny fon’ ny olona; fa izaho kosa dia tanteraka tamin’ ny fanarahana an’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao.
But my brethren that went vp with me, discouraged the heart of the people: yet I followed still the Lord my God.
9 Dia nianiana tamin’ izany andro izany Mosesy ka nanao hoe: Ny tany izay nodiavin’ ny tongotrao dia ho lovanao sy ny taranakao tokoa mandrakizay, satria tanteraka tamin’ ny fanarahana an’ i Jehovah Andriamanitro ianao.
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 Ary ankehitriny indro, efa namelona ahy Jehovah, araka izay nolazainy hatramin’ ny dimy amby efa-polo taona lasa izay, dia hatramin’ ny nilazan’ i Jehovah izany teny izany tamin’ i Mosesy no ho mankaty, raha mbola nandehandeha tany an-efitra ny Isiraely; ary ankehitriny, indro, efa dimy amby valo-polo taona aho izao.
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 Nefa mbola matanjaka ihany aho izao tahaka ny tamin’ ny andro nanirahan’ i Mosesy ahy: tahaka ny tanjako tamin’ izany ihany no mbola tanjako ankehitriny mba hiady, na hivoaka, na hiditra.
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 Ary ankehitriny omeo ahy iry tendrombohitra iry, izay nolazain’ i Jehovah tamin’ izany andro izany; fa efa renao tamin’ izany andro izany fa nitoetra teo ny Anakita, sady nisy tanàna lehibe mimanda; angamba homba ahy Jehovah, dia haharoaka azy aho, araka izay nolazain’ i Jehovah.
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 Dia nitso-drano azy Josoa ka nanome an’ i Hebrona ho lovan’ i Kaleba, zanak’ i Jefone.
Then Ioshua blessed him, and gaue vnto Caleb the sonne of Iephunneh, Hebron for an inheritance.
14 Izany no nahatongavan’ i Hebrona ho lovan’ i Kaleba, zanak’ i Jefone, Kenizita, mandraka androany satria tanteraka tamin’ ny fanarahana an’ i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely, izy.
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 Ary tanànan’ Arba no anaran’ i Hebrona taloha; ilay lehilahy vaventy tamin’ ny Anakita izany Arba izany. Dia nandry ny tany ka tsy nisy ady intsony.
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.
