¹And 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.

¹Te pa so dediščine, ki so jih dobili sinovi Izraelovi v Kanaanski deželi, ki so jih jim porazdelili Eleazar duhovnik in Jozue, sin Nunov, in poglavarji očetovinam vseh rodov Izraelovih sinov;

²By lot was their inheritance, as the LORD commanded by the hand of Moses, for the nine tribes, and for the half tribe.

²po žrebanju so jim pridelili dediščino, kakor je GOSPOD zapovedal po Mojzesu, devetim rodom in polovici rodu.

³For Moses had given the inheritance of two tribes and an half tribe on the other side Jordan: but unto the Levites he gave none inheritance among them.

³Dvema rodoma in polovici rodu je namreč Mojzes dal dediščino na oni strani Jordana. Levitom pa ni dal dediščine med njimi nobene.

⁴For the children of Joseph were two tribes, Manasseh and Ephraim: therefore they gave no part unto the Levites in the land, save cities to dwell in, with their suburbs for their cattle and for their substance.

⁴Kajti Jožefovih sinov sta bila dva roda, Manase in Efraim; in levitom niso dali deleža v deželi, samo mesta za prebivanje in pašnike okoli njih njih živini in njih blagu.

⁵As the LORD commanded Moses, so the children of Israel did, and they divided the land.

⁵Kakor je bil GOSPOD zapovedal Mojzesu, tako so storili Izraelovi sinovi in so razdelili deželo.

⁶Then the children of Judah came unto Joshua in Gilgal: and Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenezite said unto him, Thou knowest the thing that the LORD said unto Moses the man of God concerning me and thee in Kadeshbarnea.

⁶Tedaj pristopijo Judovi sinovi k Jozuetu v Gilgalu, in Kaleb, sin Jefunov, Kenizejec, ga ogovori: Ti veš, kar je rekel GOSPOD Mojzesu, možu Božjemu, zastran mene in tebe v Kades-barnei.

⁷Forty 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 mine heart.

⁷Štirideset let sem bil star, ko me je poslal Mojzes, služabnik GOSPODOV, iz Kades-barnee ogledovat deželo; in prinesel sem mu poročilo, kakor mi je bilo pri srcu.

⁸Nevertheless my brethren that went up with me made the heart of the people melt: but I wholly followed the LORD my God.

⁸Toda moji bratje, ki so šli gori z menoj, so ljudstvu v obup zapeljali srce, jaz pa sem zvesto hodil za GOSPODOM, Bogom svojim.

⁹And Moses sware on that day, saying, Surely the land whereon thy feet have trodden shall be thine inheritance, and thy children's for ever, because thou hast wholly followed the LORD my God.

⁹In Mojzes je prisegel tisti dan, rekoč: Gotovo bode dežela, po kateri je stopala tvoja noga, tebi in tvojim otrokom dediščina vekomaj, ker si zvesto hodil za GOSPODOM, Bogom mojim.

¹⁰And now, behold, the LORD hath kept me alive, as he said, these forty and five years, even since the LORD spake this word unto Moses, while the children of Israel wandered in the wilderness: and now, lo, I am this day fourscore and five years old.

¹⁰In sedaj, glej, GOSPOD me je ohranil v življenju, kakor je govoril teh štirideset in pet let, odkar je govoril besedo to Mojzesu, ko je Izrael potoval po puščavi. In sedaj, glej, danes sem petinosemdeset let star:

¹¹As 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.

¹¹in še danes sem tako krepak kakor tisti dan, ko me je Mojzes odposlal; kakršna je bila moja moč takrat, je tudi sedaj, da se bojujem in hodim ven in noter.

¹²Now therefore give me this mountain, whereof the LORD spake in that day; for thou heardest 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.

¹²Sedaj torej mi daj to gorovje, ki je o njem govoril GOSPOD tisti dan; kajti slišal si takrat, da so Enakimi ondi in velika in utrjena mesta. Morda bode GOSPOD z menoj, da jih preženem, kakor je govoril GOSPOD.

¹³And Joshua blessed him, and gave unto Caleb the son of Jephunneh Hebron for an inheritance.

¹³Tedaj ga blagoslovi Jozue ter da Hebron v dediščino Kalebu, sinu Jefunovemu.

¹⁴Hebron therefore became the inheritance of Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenezite unto this day, because that he wholly followed the LORD God of Israel.

¹⁴Zato je prišel Hebron v dedno posest Kalebu, Jefunovemu sinu, Kenizejcu, do današnjega dne, ker je zvesto hodil za GOSPODOM, Bogom Izraelovim.Hebron pa se je prej imenoval Arbovo mesto; ta je bil največji mož med Enakimi. In dežela je počivala od vojen.

¹⁵And the name of Hebron before was Kirjatharba; which Arba was a great man among the Anakims. And the land had rest from war.

¹⁵Hebron pa se je prej imenoval Arbovo mesto; ta je bil največji mož med Enakimi. In dežela je počivala od vojen.
