Jošua 14

1 Ovo je što su dobili u baštinu sinovi Izraelovi u zemlji kanaanskoj - što su im razdijelili u baštinu svećenik Eleazar i Jošua, sin Nunov, i glavari porodica izraelskih plemena.

This is what the sons of Israel possessed in the land of Canaan, which Eleazar, the priest, and Joshua, the son of Nun, and the leaders of the families, by the tribes of Israel, gave to them,

2 Ždrijebom su razdijelili baštinu, kao što je Jahve odredio preko Mojsija, među devet plemena i polovinu desetoga plemena.

dividing all by lot, just as the Lord had instructed by the hand of Moses, to the nine tribes and to the one half tribe.

3 Mojsije je odredio baštinu dvama plemenima i polovini desetog plemena s onu stranu Jordana, a levitima nije dao baštine među njima.

For to the two and one half tribes, Moses had given a possession beyond the Jordan, aside from the Levites, who received no land among their brothers.

4 Jer bijahu dva plemena sinova Josipovih: Manašeovo i Efrajimovo. A levitima nisu dali dijela u zemlji nego gradove za prebivanje i pašnjake za njihovu stoku i za blago njihovo.

For by succession, the sons of Joseph, in their place, were divided into two tribes, Manasseh and Ephraim. But the Levites did not receive another portion of land, except cities in which to live, and their suburbs, so as to feed their beasts of burden and cattle.

5 Kako je Jahve zapovjedio Mojsiju, tako su učinili sinovi Izraelovi pri diobi zemlje.

Just as the Lord had commanded Moses, so the sons of Israel did, and they divided the land.

6 Sinovi Judini pristupe k Jošui u Gilgalu, a Kaleb, sin Jefuneov, Kenižanin, reče mu: “Ti znaš što je Jahve rekao Mojsiju, čovjeku Božjem, za mene i za tebe u Kadeš Barnei.

And so, the sons of Judah approached Joshua at Gilgal. And Caleb, the son of Jephone, the Kenizzite, spoke to him: “You know what the Lord said to Moses, the man of God, at Kadesh-barnea, about me and you.

7 Bilo mi je četrdeset godina kad me posla Mojsije, sluga Jahvin, iz Kadeš Barnee da uhodim zemlju. I donio sam mu izvješće kako sam najbolje znao.

I was forty years old when Moses, the servant of the Lord, sent me from Kadesh-barnea, so that I might consider the land. And I reported to him what seemed to me to be true.

8 Braća koja su pošla sa mnom uplašila su srce naroda, ali sam ja vršio volju Jahve, Boga svojega.

But my brothers, who had ascended with me, broke the heart of the people. And I nevertheless followed the Lord my God.

9 I onoga se dana zakle Mojsije: 'Zemlja kojom je stupala noga tvoja pripast će tebi i sinovima tvojim u vječnu baštinu, jer si vršio volju Jahve, Boga mojega.'

And Moses swore, on that day, saying: ‘The land that your foot has tread upon shall be your possession, and that of your sons, unto eternity. For you have followed the Lord my God.’

10 I vidiš, Jahve me sačuvao u životu, kao što je rekao. Već je prošlo četrdeset i pet godina kako je Jahve to obećao Mojsiju, dok je Izrael još išao pustinjom; sada mi je osamdeset i pet godina,

Therefore, the Lord has granted life to me, just as he promised, even to the present day. It has been forty-five years since the Lord spoke this word to Moses, when Israel was wandering through the wilderness. Today, I am eighty-five years old,

11 ali sam još i danas snažan kao što sam bio onoga dana kad me Mojsije poslao kao uhodu. Kao nekoć, i sada je moja snaga u meni, za borbu, da odem i da se vratim.

being just as strong as I was at that time, when I was sent to explore the land. The fortitude in me at that time continues even until today, as much to fight as to march.

12 Daj mi sada ovo gorje, koje mi je Jahve obećao onoga dana. Sam si čuo onoga dana. Ondje su Anakovci, a i gradovi su im veliki i tvrdi. Ako je Jahve sa mnom, protjerat ću ih, kako je to obećao Jahve.”

Therefore, grant to me this mountain, which the Lord has promised in your hearing also, on which are the Anakim, and cities, great and fortified. Perhaps it may be that the Lord will be with me, and I will be able to destroy them, just as he promised to me.”

13 Tada ga Jošua blagoslovi i dade Kalebu, sinu Jefuneovu, Hebron u baštinu.

And Joshua blessed him, and he delivered Hebron to him as a possession.

14 Hebron je pripao u baštinu Kalebu, sinu Jefuneovu, Kenižaninu, sve do danas, jer je Kaleb vršio volju Jahve, Boga Izraelova.

And from then on, Hebron was for Caleb, the son of Jephunneh, the Kenizzite, even to the present day. For he followed the Lord, the God of Israel.

15 Hebron se prije zvao Kirjat Arba; a Arba bijaše velik čovjek među Anakovcima. I počinu zemlja od rata.

Previously, the name Hebron was called Kiriath-Arba. Adam, the greatest among the Anakim, was laid there. And the land ceased from battles.
