Yoshua 14
1 Maeneo haya ya nchi ambayo watu wa Israeli waliyapokea kama urithi wao katika nchi ya Kanaani. Urith huu uligawanywa kwao na Eliazeri kuhani, na Yoshua mwana wa Nuni, na viongozi wa makabila ya mababu wa familia zao kati ya watu wa Israeli.
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 Urithi wao ulichaguliwa kwa kupiga kura kwa makabila tisa na nusu, kama vile Yahweh alivyoagiza kwa mkono wa Musa.
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 Kwa kuwa Musa alikuwa amewapa urithi makabila mawili na nusu ng'ambo ya Yordani, lakini Walawi hawakupewa urithi wowote.
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 Kabila la Yusufu kwa uhalisia yalikuwa makabila mawili, Manase na Efraimu. Na hakuna sehemu yoyote ya urithi waliyopewa Walawi katika nchi, lakini walipewa miji ya kuishi ndani yake pamoja na sehemu ya malisho ya mifugo yao na kwa ajili ya riziki zao.
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 Watu wa Israeli walifanya hivyo kama vile Yahweh alivyomwagiza Musa, basi waliiganywa nchi.
Just as he had commanded Yahweh Moses so they did [the] people of Israel and they apportioned the land.
6 Kisha kabila la Yuda lilikuja kwa Yoshua huko Giligali. Kalebu mwana wa Yefune Mkenizi, akamwambia,”Unajua kile Yahweh alichomwambia Musa mtu wa Mungu juu yako na mimi huko Barnea.
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 Nilikuwa na umri wa miaka arobani wakati Musa mtumishi wa Yahweh aliponituma kutoka Kadeshi Barnea kuipeleleza nchi. Nilimletea taarifa tena kama nilivyotakiwa kufanya katika moyo wangu.
[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 Lakini ndugu zangu walioenda pamoja nami waliifanya mioyo ya watu iyeyuke kwa woga. Lakini mimi nilimfuata Yahweh kabisa.
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 Musa aliapa katika siku hiyo akisema, “Hakika nchi ambayo miguu yako imetembea juu yake itakuwa urithi wako na kwa watoto wako milele, kwasababu umemfuata kabisa Yahweh Mungu wangu.
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 Tazama! sasa, Yahweh amenihifadhi hai kwa miaka hii arobaini na tano, kama alivyosema - tangu kipindi kile Yahweh alivyomwambia Musa neno hili, wakati huo Waisraeli walikuwa wakitembea jangwani. Tazama! sasa katika siku hii ya leo nina miaka themanini na mitano.
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 Bado hata siku hii ya leo nina nguvu kama nilivyokuwa katika siku ile ambayo Musa alinituma. Nguvu zangu za sasa ni sawa na nguvu zangu za kipindi kile, kwa ajili ya vita na kwa kwenda na kwa kuja.
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 Sasa basi, nipe nchi hii ya milima, ambayo Yahweh aliniahidi katika siku hiyo. Kwa kuwa ulisikia katika siku hiyo kuwa Wanakimu walikuwa huko katika miji yenye ngome. Itakuwa kwamba Yahweh atakuwa pamoja nami na ya kwamba nitawafukuzia mbali, kama vile Yahweh alivyosema.”
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 Kisha Yoshua alimbariki Kalebu mwana wa Yefune na alimpa Hebroni kama urithi wake.
And he blessed him Joshua and he gave Hebron to Caleb [the] son of Jephunneh to an inheritance.
14 Hivyo Hebroni ikawa urithi wa Kalebu mwana wa Yefune Mkenizi hata leo, kwasababu alimfuata kabisa Yahweh, Mungu wa Israeli.
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 Basi, jina la Hebroni hapo mwanzo lilikuwa ni Kiriathi Arba ( Arba ambaye alikuwa ni mtu mkuu miongoni mwa Wanakim). Kisha nchi ikawa na raha bila vita.
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.
