Hohua 14
1 A ko nga wahi enei i riro i nga tama a Iharaira i te whenua o Kanaana, i tuwhaina nei e Ereatara tohunga, e Hohua tama a Nunu, e nga upoko hoki o nga whare o nga matua o nga iwi o nga tama a Iharaira mo ratou,
These are the inheritances which the children of Israel took in the land of Canaan, which Eleazar the cohen, Joshua the son of Nun, and the heads of ancestral houses of the tribes of the children of Israel, distributed to them,
2 He mea rota o ratou wahi, he mea pera me ta Ihowa whakahau i whakapuakina e Mohi, mo nga iwi e iwa me tetahi taanga hoki o tetahi iwi.
by the lot of their inheritance, as the LORD commanded by the hand of Moses, to give to the nine tribes, and for the half-tribe.
3 Kua hoatu hoki e Mohi he wahi mo nga iwi e rua, mo tetahi taanga hoki o tetahi iwi i tawahi o Horano: otiia kihai i hoatu i roto i a ratou tetahi wahi mo nga Riwaiti.
For Moses had given the inheritance of the two tribes and the half-tribe beyond the Jordan; but to the Levites he gave no inheritance among them.
4 E rua hoki nga iwi o nga tama a Hohepa, ko Manahi raua ko Eparaima: a kihai i hoatu e ratou tetahi wahi o te whenua mo nga Riwaiti, heoi ano ko nga pa hei nohoanga, me nga wahi o waho a tawhio noa, mo a ratou kararehe, mo a ratou mea.
For the descendants of Joseph were two tribes, Manasseh and Ephraim: and they gave no portion to the Levites in the land, except cities to dwell in, with their suburbs for their livestock and for their property.
5 Rite tonu ki ta Ihowa i whakahau ai ki a Mohi ta nga tama a Iharaira i mea ai, a wehewehea ana e ratou te whenua.
The children of Israel did as the LORD commanded Moses, and they divided the land.
6 Katahi ka whakatata nga tama a Hura ki a Hohua i Kirikara; a ka mea a Karepe tama a Iepune Keniti ki a ia, E mohio ana koe ki te kupu i korerotia e Ihowa ki a Mohi, ki te tangata a te Atua, moku, a mou hoki, i Kareheparenea.
Then the descendants of Judah drew near to Joshua in Gilgal. Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite said to him, "You know the thing that the LORD spoke to Moses the man of God concerning me and concerning you in Kadesh Barnea.
7 E wha tekau oku tau i te tononga a Mohi, a te pononga a te Atua i ahau i Kareheparenea ki te tutei i te whenua; a i whakahokia e ahau he korero ki a ia, ko nga mea o roto o toku ngakau.
I was forty years old when Moses the servant of the LORD sent me from Kadesh Barnea to spy out the land. I brought him word again as it was in my heart.
8 A, ko oku teina i haere tahi nei matou ki runga, na ngohe ana i a ratou nga ngakau o te iwi: ko ahau ia, i pau katoa atu ahau ki te whai i a Ihowa, i toku Atua.
Nevertheless, my brothers who went up with me made the heart of the people melt; but I wholly followed the LORD my God.
9 Na ko te oatitanga mai a Mohi i taua ra, ko te meatanga, Ko taua whenua i takahia na e ou waewae, he pono mou pu hei kainga tupu, mo au tamariki hoki ake ake; mou i whakapau ki te whai i a Ihowa, i toku Atua.
Moses swore on that day, saying, 'Surely the land where you walked shall be an inheritance to you and to your children forever, because you have wholly followed the LORD my God.'
10 Heoi inaianei kua whakaora a Ihowa i ahau, kua pera me tana i korero ai, ka wha tekau ma rima enei tau, mai o te korerotanga a Ihowa i tenei kupu ki a Mohi, i a Iharaira e haereere ana i te koraha: na, inaianei, ka waru tekau ma rima oku tau.
Now, look, the LORD has kept me alive, as he spoke, these forty-five years, from the time that the LORD spoke this word to Moses, while Israel walked in the wilderness. Now, look, I am eighty-five years old, today.
11 Kei te kaha tonu ahau i tenei ra, pera ano i te ra i tonoa ai ahau e Mohi: ko toku kaha i reira koia ano toku kaha inaianei mo te whawhai, mo te haere atu, mo te haere mai.
I am still as strong today as I was in the day that Moses sent me: as my strength was then, even so is my strength now for war, to go out and to come in.
12 No reira homai ki ahau tenei maunga, ko ta Ihowa hoki i korero ai i taua ra; i rongo ra hoki koe taua ra kei reira nga Anakimi, me nga pa nunui, taiepa rawa: tera pea e tata mai a Ihowa ki ahau, a ka peia ratou e ahau, a ka peratia me ta Ihowa i korero ai.
Now therefore give me this hill country, of which the LORD spoke in that day; for you heard in that day how the Anakim were there, and great and fortified cities. It may be that the LORD will be with me, and I shall drive them out, as the LORD spoke."
13 Na ka manaakitia ia e Hohua; a hoatu ana e ia a Heperona ki a Karepe tama a Iepune hei kainga tupu.
Joshua blessed him; and he gave Hebron to Caleb the son of Jephunneh for an inheritance.
14 Koia i waiho ai a Heperona hei kainga tupu mo Karepe, mo te tama a Iepune Keniti, a mohoa noa nei; mona i whakapau ki te whai i a Ihowa, i te Atua o Iharaira.
Therefore Hebron became the inheritance of Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite to this day; because he wholly followed the LORD, the God of Israel.
15 Na ko te ingoa o Heperona i mua ko Kiriata Arapa; ko taua Arapa hoki te tangata tino nui i roto i nga Anakimi. Heoi takoto kau ana te whenua i te whawhai.
Now the name of Hebron before was Kiriath Arba, after the greatest man among the Anakim. The land had rest from war.
