Joshua 14

1 And these are the heritages which the children of Israel took in the land of Canaan, which Eleazar, the priest, and Joshua, the son of Nun, and the heads of the tribes of the children of Israel, gave out to them;

Pea ko e ngaahi fonua eni ʻaia naʻe maʻu ʻe he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻi he fonua ko Kēnani, ʻaia naʻe tufaki ʻe ʻEliesa ko e taulaʻeiki mo Siosiua ko e foha ʻo Nuni, mo e ngaahi ʻeiki ʻoe kau mātuʻa, ʻi he ngaahi faʻahinga ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ko e tofiʻa moʻonautolu.

2 Their heritage by the Lord's decision, as he gave orders by Moses, for the nine tribes and the half-tribe.

Naʻe vahe talotalo pe ʻae tofiʻa ʻoe faʻahinga ʻe hiva mo hono vaeuaʻanga ʻoe faʻahinga ʻe taha, hangē ko e fekau ʻa Sihova ʻi he nima ʻo Mōsese.

3 For Moses had given their heritage to the two tribes and the half-tribe on the other side of Jordan, but to the Levites he gave no heritage among them.

He kuo ʻosi hono foaki ʻe Mōsese ʻae tofiʻa ki he faʻahinga ʻe ua mo hono vaeuaʻanga ʻoe faʻahinga ʻi he kauvai ʻe taha ʻo Soatani: ka naʻe ʻikai tuku ʻe ia ki he kau Livai ha tofiʻa ʻiate kinautolu.

4 Because the children of Joseph were two tribes, Manasseh and Ephraim; and they gave the Levites no part in the land, only towns for their living-places, with the grass-lands for their cattle and for their property.

He ko e faʻahinga ʻe ua ʻoe fānau ʻa Siosefa, ko Manase mo ʻIfalemi: ko ia naʻe ʻikai ʻatu ha vāhenga ki he kau Livai ʻi he fonua, ka ko e ngaahi ʻapi kenau nofo ai, mo honau ngaahi potu ki heʻenau fanga manu, mo ʻenau koloa.

5 As the Lord had given orders to Moses, so the people of Israel did, and they made division of the land.

Hangē ko e fekau ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, naʻe pehē pe hono fai ʻe he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻonau vahe ʻae fonua.

6 Then the children of Judah went to Joshua in Gilgal; and Caleb, the son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite, said to him, You have knowledge of what the Lord said to Moses, the man of God, about me and about you in Kadesh-barnea.

Pea naʻe haʻu ai ʻae fānau ʻa Siuta kia Siosiua ki Kilikali: pea ko Kelepi ko e foha ʻo Sifune mei he faʻahinga ʻo Kenasi naʻe lea kiate ia, “ʻOku ke ʻilo ʻaia naʻe folofolaʻaki ʻe Sihova kia Mōsese ko e tangata ʻae ʻOtua kiate au mo koe ʻi Ketesi-pania.

7 I was forty years old when Moses, the servant of the Lord, sent me from Kadesh-barnea to make a search through the land; and the account which I gave him was in keeping with his desire.

Naʻe fāngofulu taʻu hoku motuʻa ʻi he fekauʻi au ʻe Mōsese ko e tamaioʻeiki ʻa Sihova mei Ketesi-pania ke matakiʻi ʻae fonua; pea ne u ʻomi kiate ia hono tala ʻo hangē ko ia naʻe ʻi hoku loto.

8 My brothers, however, who went up with me, made the heart of the people like water: but I was true to the Lord with all my heart.

Ka ko hoku ngaahi kāinga naʻe ʻalu hake mo au naʻa nau ngaohi ke vai ʻo ʻosi ʻae loto ʻoe kakai: ka naʻaku tuli tāupau kia Sihova ko hoku ʻOtua.

9 And on that day Moses took an oath, saying, Truly the land where your feet have been placed will become a heritage for you and your children for ever, because you have been true to the Lord your God with all your heart.

Pea naʻe fuakava ʻe Mōsese ʻi he ʻaho ko ia, ʻo pehē, Ko e moʻoni ko e fonua ʻaia kuo tuʻu ki ai ho vaʻe ko e tofiʻa ia ʻoʻou, pea ki hoʻo fānau ʻo taʻengata, ko e meʻa ʻi hoʻo tuli tāupau kia Sihova ko ho ʻOtua.

10 And now, as you see, the Lord has kept me safe these forty-five years, from the time when the Lord said this to Moses, while Israel was wandering in the waste land: and now I am eighty-five years old.

Pea ko eni, vakai, kuo tauhi ʻeku moʻui ʻe Sihova, ʻo hangē ko ʻene folofola, ʻi he tau ni ʻe fāngofulu ma nima, ʻio talu hono folofolaʻaki ʻe Sihova ʻae lea ni kia Mōsese, ʻi he kei feʻaluʻaki fano ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻi he toafa: pea ko eni, vakai, ʻoku kakato ʻa hoku taʻu ʻe valungofulu ma nima he ʻaho ni.

11 And still, I am as strong today as I was when Moses sent me out: as my strength was then, so is it now, for war and for all the business of life.

‌ʻOku ou kei mālohi tatau he ʻaho ni mo ʻeku mālohi ʻi he ʻaho ko ia naʻe fekau ʻe Mōsese kiate au: ʻoku tatau pe ʻeku mālohi ko eni mo ʻeku mālohi ʻi he ʻaho ko ia, ki he tau, ke ʻalu kituʻa, pea ke hū mai.

12 So now, give me this hill-country named by the Lord at that time; for you had an account of it then, how the Anakim were there, and great walled towns: it may be that the Lord will be with me, and I will be able to take their land, as the Lord said.

Pea ko eni, foaki mai kiate au ʻae moʻunga ni, ʻaia naʻe folofola ki ai ʻa Sihova ʻi he ʻaho ko ia; he naʻa ke fanongo ʻi he ʻaho ko ia, koeʻuhi ʻoku ʻi ai ʻae kau ʻAnaki, pea ko ʻenau ngaahi kolo naʻe fuʻu lahi, pea ʻāʻi: kapau ʻe ʻiate au ʻa Sihova, pea te u toki mafai ke kapusi ʻakinautolu, ʻo hangē ko e folofola ʻa Sihova.”

13 And Joshua gave him his blessing; and he gave Hebron to Caleb, the son of Jephunneh, for his heritage.

Pea naʻe tāpuaki ia ʻe Siosiua, ʻo ne foaki kia Kelepi ko e foha ʻo Sifune ʻa Hepeloni ko hono tofiʻa.

14 So Hebron became the heritage of Caleb, the son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite, to this day, because with all his heart he was true to the Lord, the God of Israel.

Ko ia naʻe hoko ai ʻa Hepeloni ko e tofiʻa ʻo Kelepi ko e foha ʻo Sifune ko e [tangata ]Kenasi ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho ni, ko e meʻa ʻi heʻene tuli tāupau kia Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli.

15 In earlier times the name of Hebron had been Kiriath-arba, named after Arba, the greatest of the Anakim. And the land had rest from war.

Pea ko hono hingoa ʻi muʻa ʻo Hepeloni ko Kesa-ʻAlipa; ko ʻAlipa ko ia ko e tangata lahi ʻi he kau ʻAnaki. Pea naʻe mālōlō ʻae fonua mei he tau.
