< Joshua 14 >

1 This is what the children of Israel possessed in the land of Chanaan, which Eleazar the priest, and Josue the son of Nun, and the princes of the families by the tribes of Israel gave 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 Dividing all by lot, as the Lord had commanded by the hand of Moses, to 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 to two tribes and a half Moses had given possession beyond the Jordan: besides the Levites, who received no land among their brethren:
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 But in their place succeeded the children of Joseph divided into two tribes, of Manasses and Ephraim: neither did the Levites receive other portion of land, but cities to dwell in, and their suburbs to feed their beasts and flocks.
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 commanded Moses, so did the children of Israel, and they divided 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 Juda came to Josue in Galgal, and Caleb the son of Jephone the Cenezite spoke to him: Thou knowest what the Lord spoke to Moses the man of God concerning me and thee in Cadesbarne.
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 Bears old when Moses the servant of the Lord sent me from Cadesbarne, to view the land, and I brought him word again as to me seemed true.
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 But my brethren, that had gone up with me, discouraged the heart of the people: and I nevertheless followed the Lord my God.
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 Moses swore in that day, saying: The land which thy foot hath trodden upon shall be thy possession, and thy children’s for ever, because thou hast followed the Lord my God.
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 The Lord therefore hath granted me life, as he promised until this present day. It is forty and five years since the Lord spoke this word to Moses, when Israel journeyed through the wilderness: this day 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 As strong as I was at that time when I was sent to view the land: the strength of that time continueth in me until this day, as well to fight as to march.
‌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 Give me therefore this mountain, which the Lord promised, in thy hearing also, wherein are the Enacims, and cities great and strong: if so be the Lord will be with me, and I shall be able to destroy them, as he promised me.
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 Josue blessed him, and gave him Hebron in possession.
Pea naʻe tāpuaki ia ʻe Siosiua, ʻo ne foaki kia Kelepi ko e foha ʻo Sifune ʻa Hepeloni ko hono tofiʻa.
14 And from that time Hebron belonged to Caleb the son of Jephone the Cenezite, until this present day: because he followed 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 The name of Hebron before was called Cariath-Arbe: Adam the greatest among the Enacims was laid there: and the land rested from wars.
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.
