Iosue 14

1 hoc est quod possederunt filii Israhel in terra Chanaan quam dederunt eis Eleazar sacerdos et Iosue filius Nun et principes familiarum per tribus Israhel

And these are the countries which the children of Israel inherited in the land of Canaan, which Eleazar the priest, and Joshua the son of Nun, and the heads of the fathers of the tribes of the children of Israel, distributed for inheritance to them.

2 sorte omnia dividentes sicut praeceperat Dominus in manu Mosi novem tribubus et dimidiae tribui

By lot was their inheritance, as the LORD commanded by the hand of Moses, for the nine tribes, and for the half tribe.

3 duabus enim tribubus et dimidiae dederat Moses trans Iordanem possessionem absque Levitis qui nihil terrae acceperunt inter fratres suos

For Moses had given the inheritance of two tribes and an half tribe on the other side Jordan: but to the Levites he gave none inheritance among them.

4 sed in eorum successerant locum filii Ioseph in duas divisi tribus Manasse et Ephraim nec acceperunt Levitae aliam in terra partem nisi urbes ad habitandum et suburbana earum ad alenda iumenta et pecora sua

For the children of Joseph were two tribes, Manasseh and Ephraim: therefore they gave no part to the Levites in the land, save cities to dwell in, with their suburbs for their cattle and for their substance.

5 sicut praecepit Dominus Mosi ita fecerunt filii Israhel et diviserunt terram

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

6 accesserunt itaque filii Iuda ad Iosue in Galgala locutusque est ad eum Chaleb filius Iepphonne Cenezeus nosti quid locutus sit Dominus ad Mosen hominem Dei de me et te in Cadesbarne

Then the children of Judah came to Joshua in Gilgal: and Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenezite said to him, You know the thing that the LORD said to Moses the man of God concerning me and you in Kadeshbarnea.

7 quadraginta annorum eram quando me misit Moses famulus Domini de Cadesbarne ut considerarem terram nuntiavique ei quod mihi verum videbatur

Forty years old was I when Moses the servant of the LORD sent me from Kadeshbarnea to espy out the land; and I brought him word again as it was in my heart.

8 fratres autem mei qui ascenderant mecum dissolverunt cor populi et nihilominus ego secutus sum Dominum Deum meum

Nevertheless my brothers that went up with me made the heart of the people melt: but I wholly followed the LORD my God.

9 iuravitque Moses in die illo dicens terram quam calcavit pes tuus erit possessio tua et filiorum tuorum in aeternum quia secutus es Dominum Deum meum

And Moses swore on that day, saying, Surely the land where on your feet have trodden shall be your inheritance, and your children’s for ever, because you have wholly followed the LORD my God.

10 concessit ergo Dominus vitam mihi sicut pollicitus est usque in praesentem diem quadraginta et quinque anni sunt ex quo locutus est Dominus verbum istud ad Mosen quando ambulabat Israhel per solitudinem hodie octoginta quinque annorum sum

And now, behold, the LORD has kept me alive, as he said, these forty and five years, even since the LORD spoke this word to Moses, while the children of Israel wandered in the wilderness: and now, see, I am this day fourscore and five years old.

11 sic valens ut eo valebam tempore quando ad explorandum missus sum illius in me temporis fortitudo usque hodie perseverat tam ad bellandum quam ad gradiendum

As yet I am as strong this day as I was in the day that Moses sent me: as my strength was then, even so is my strength now, for war, both to go out, and to come in.

12 da ergo mihi montem istum quem pollicitus est Dominus te quoque audiente in quo Enacim sunt et urbes magnae atque munitae si forte sit Dominus mecum et potuero delere eos sicut promisit mihi

Now therefore give me this mountain, whereof the LORD spoke in that day; for you heard in that day how the Anakims were there, and that the cities were great and fenced: if so be the LORD will be with me, then I shall be able to drive them out, as the LORD said.

13 benedixitque ei Iosue et tradidit Hebron in possessionem

And Joshua blessed him, and gave to Caleb the son of Jephunneh Hebron for an inheritance.

14 atque ex eo fuit Hebron Chaleb filio Iepphonne Cenezeo usque in praesentem diem quia secutus est Dominum Deum Israhel

Hebron therefore became the inheritance of Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenezite to this day, because that he wholly followed the LORD God of Israel.

15 nomen Hebron antea vocabatur Cariatharbe Adam maximus ibi inter Enacim situs est et terra cessavit a proeliis

And the name of Hebron before was Kirjatharba; which Arba was a great man among the Anakims. And the land had rest from war.
