يَشُوع 14

١ 1 فَهَذِهِ هِيَ ٱلَّتِي ٱمْتَلَكَهَا بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ فِي أَرْضِ كَنْعَانَ، ٱلَّتِي مَلَّكَهُمْ إِيَّاهَا أَلِعَازَارُ ٱلْكَاهِنُ وَيَشُوعُ بْنُ نُونَ وَرُؤَسَاءُ آبَاءِ أَسْبَاطِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ.

And these [are] they of the children of Israel that received their inheritance in the land of Chanaan, to whom Eleazar the priest, and Joshua the [son] of Naue, and the heads of the families of the tribes of the children of Israel, gave inheritance.

٢ 2 نَصِيبُهُمْ بِٱلْقُرْعَةِ كَمَا أَمَرَ ٱلرَّبُّ عَنْ يَدِ مُوسَى لِلتِّسْعَةِ ٱلْأَسْبَاطِ وَنِصْفِ ٱلسِّبْطِ.

They inherited according to their lots, as the Lord commanded by the hand of Joshua to the nine tribes and the half tribe, on the other side of Jordan.

٣ 3 لِأَنَّ مُوسَى أَعْطَى نَصِيبَ ٱلسِّبْطَيْنِ وَنِصْفِ ٱلسِّبْطِ فِي عَبْرِ ٱلْأُرْدُنِّ. وَأَمَّا ٱللَّاوِيُّونَ فَلَمْ يُعْطِهِمْ نَصِيبًا فِي وَسَطِهِمْ.

But to the Levites he gave no inheritance among them.

٤ 4 لِأَنَّ بَنِي يُوسُفَ كَانُوا سِبْطَيْنِ: مَنَسَّى وَأَفْرَايِمَ. وَلَمْ يُعْطُوا ٱللَّاوِيِّينَ قِسْمًا فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ إِلَّا مُدُنًا لِلسَّكَنِ، وَمَسَارِحَهَا لِمَوَاشِيهِمْ وَمُقْتَنَاهُمْ.

For the sons of Joseph were two tribes, Manasse and Ephraim; and there was none inheritance in the land given to the Levites, only cities to dwell in, and their suburbs separated for the cattle, and their cattle.

٥ 5 كَمَا أَمَرَ ٱلرَّبُّ مُوسَى هَكَذَا فَعَلَ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ وَقَسَمُوا ٱلْأَرْضَ.

As the Lord commanded Moses, so did the children of Israel; and they divided the land.

٦ 6 فَتَقَدَّمَ بَنُو يَهُوذَا إِلَى يَشُوعَ فِي ٱلْجِلْجَالِ. وَقَالَ لَهُ كَالَبُ بْنُ يَفُنَّةَ ٱلْقَنِزِّيُّ: «أَنْتَ تَعْلَمُ ٱلْكَلَامَ ٱلَّذِي كَلَّمَ بِهِ ٱلرَّبُّ مُوسَى رَجُلَ ٱللهِ مِنْ جِهَتِي وَمِنْ جِهَتِكَ فِي قَادَشِ بَرْنِيعَ.

And the children of Juda came to Joshua in Galgal, and Chaleb the [son] of Jephone the Kenezite said to him, You know the word that the Lord spoke to Moses the man of God concerning me and you in Cades Barne.

٧ 7 كُنْتُ ٱبْنَ أَرْبَعِينَ سَنَةً حِينَ أَرْسَلَنِي مُوسَى عَبْدُ ٱلرَّبِّ مِنْ قَادَشِ بَرْنِيعَ لِأَتَجَسَّسَ ٱلْأَرْضَ. فَرَجَعْتُ إِلَيْهِ بِكَلَامٍ عَمَّا فِي قَلْبِي.

For I was forty years old when Moses the servant of God sent me out of Cades Barne to spy out the land; and I returned him an answer according to his mind.

٨ 8 وَأَمَّا إِخْوَتِيَ ٱلَّذِينَ صَعِدُوا مَعِي فَأَذَابُوا قَلْبَ ٱلشَّعْبِ. وَأَمَّا أَنَا فَٱتَّبَعْتُ تَمَامًا ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهِي.

My brethren that went up with me turned away the heart of the people, but I applied my self to follow the Lord my God.

٩ 9 فَحَلَفَ مُوسَى فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ قَائِلًا: إِنَّ ٱلْأَرْضَ ٱلَّتِي وَطِئَتْهَا رِجْلُكَ لَكَ تَكُونُ نَصِيبًا وَلِأَوْلَادِكَ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ، لِأَنَّكَ ٱتَّبَعْتَ ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهِي تَمَامًا.

And Moses sware on that day, saying, The land on which you are gone up, it shall be your inheritance and your children's for ever, because you have applied yourself to follow the Lord our God.

١٠ 10 وَٱلْآنَ فَهَا قَدِ ٱسْتَحْيَانِيَ ٱلرَّبُّ كَمَا تَكَلَّمَ هَذِهِ ٱلْخَمْسَ وَٱلْأَرْبَعِينَ سَنَةً، مِنْ حِينَ كَلَّمَ ٱلرَّبُّ مُوسَى بِهَذَا ٱلْكَلَامِ حِينَ سَارَ إِسْرَائِيلُ فِي ٱلْقَفْرِ. وَٱلْآنَ فَهَا أَنَا ٱلْيَوْمَ ٱبْنُ خَمْسٍ وَثَمَانِينَ سَنَةً.

And now the Lord has kept me alive as he said: this [is] the forty-fifth year since the Lord spoke that word to Moses; and Israel journeyed in the wilderness; and now, behold, I [am] this day eighty-five years old.

١١ 11 فَلَمْ أَزَلِ ٱلْيَوْمَ مُتَشَدِّدًا كَمَا فِي يَوْمَ أَرْسَلَنِي مُوسَى. كَمَا كَانَتْ قُوَّتِي حِينَئِذٍ، هَكَذَا قُوَّتِي ٱلْآنَ لِلْحَرْبِ وَلِلْخُرُوجِ وَلِلدُّخُولِ.

I am still strong this day, as when the Lord sent me: just so strong am I now to go out and to come in for war.

١٢ 12 فَٱلْآنَ أَعْطِنِي هَذَا ٱلْجَبَلَ ٱلَّذِي تَكَلَّمَ عَنْهُ ٱلرَّبُّ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ. لِأَنَّكَ أَنْتَ سَمِعْتَ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ أَنَّ ٱلْعَنَاقِيِّينَ هُنَاكَ، وَٱلْمُدُنُ عَظِيمَةٌ مُحَصَّنَةٌ. لَعَلَّ ٱلرَّبَّ مَعِي فَأَطْرُدَهُمْ كَمَا تَكَلَّمَ ٱلرَّبُّ».

And now I ask of you this mountain, as the Lord said in that day; for you heard this word on that day; and now the Enakim are there, cities great and strong: if then the Lord should be with me, I will utterly destroy them, as the Lord said to me.

١٣ 13 فَبَارَكَهُ يَشُوعُ، وَأَعْطَى حَبْرُونَ لِكَالَبَ بْنِ يَفُنَّةَ مُلْكًا.

And Joshua blessed him, and gave Chebron to Chaleb the son of Jephone the son of Kenez for an inheritance.

١٤ 14 لِذَلِكَ صَارَتْ حَبْرُونُ لِكَالَبَ بْنِ يَفُنَّةَ ٱلْقَنِزِّيِّ مُلْكًا إِلَى هَذَا ٱلْيَوْمِ، لِأَنَّهُ ٱتَّبَعَ تَمَامًا ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَ إِسْرَائِيلَ.

Therefore Chebron became the inheritance of Chaleb the [son] of Jephone the Kenezite until this day, because he followed the commandment of the Lord God of Israel.

١٥ 15 وَٱسْمُ حَبْرُونَ قَبْلًا قَرْيَةُ أَرْبَعَ، ٱلرَّجُلِ ٱلْأَعْظَمِ فِي ٱلْعَنَاقِيِّينَ. وَٱسْتَرَاحَتِ ٱلْأَرْضُ مِنَ ٱلْحَرْبِ.

And the name of Chebron before was the city Argob, it [is] the metropolis of the Enakim: and the land rested from war.
