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.

¹ Woone yaŋ mo, ngey no ga ti laabey kaŋ yaŋ Israyla izey n'i tubo ŋwa Kanaana laabo ra, wo kaŋ yaŋ Alfa Eliyezar da Yasuwa Nun izo, da Israyla izey kaayey windi arkusey fay-fay i se

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

² kurne boŋ, danga mate kaŋ Rabbi lordi Musa kambe ra d'a, kunda yagga nda jara din se.

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.

³ Zama Musa jin ka kunda hinka nda jara no ngey wane tubu, Urdun daaranta. Amma a mana Lawi kunda no tubu fo i ra.

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.

⁴ Zama Yusufu izey kunda hinka no, Manasse da Ifraymu. Koyne, i mana Lawi kunda no baa fo laabo ra, kala day birniyaŋ kaŋ ra i ga goro, ngey nda ngey almaney kuray nangey d'i arzaka kulu se.

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

⁵ Danga mate kaŋ Rabbi na Musa lordi nd'a, yaadin cine no Israyla izey mo goy d'a. I na laabo fay-fay.

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.

⁶ Gaa no Yahuda izey kaa Yasuwa do k'a gar Jilgal. Yefunna izo Kaleb Keni kuray bora binde ne: «Ni bay haŋ kaŋ Rabbi ci Irikoy bora Musa se ay boŋ ni jine, Kades-Barneya ra.

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.

⁷ Ay gonda jiiri waytaaci hano kaŋ hane Rabbi tamo Musa n'ay donton ya tun Kades-Barneya ka koy ka laabo fintal. Ay ye ka kaa a do mo da sanno, mate kaŋ a go ay bina ra.

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

⁸ Kulu nda yaadin ay nya-izey kaŋ yaŋ in d'ey ziji ka koy, i _sanno|_ naŋ jama biney sinda gaabi. Amma ay wo, ay na Rabbi ay Irikoyo gana da bine folloŋ.

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.

⁹ Musa mo ze han din hane ka ne: ‹Haciika, laabo din kaŋ ni ce taamey taamu ga ciya ni se tubu, nin da ni izey hal abada, za kaŋ ni na Rabbi ay Irikoyo gana da bine folloŋ.›

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.

¹⁰ Sohõ mo, a go, Rabbi n'ay hallasi kala jiiri waytaaci cindi gu wo, danga mate kaŋ a ci din, za hano kaŋ hane Rabbi na sanno din ci Musa se, za Israyla goono ga windi-windi saajo ra. Sohõ mo ay jiirey wahakku cindi gu no.

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.

¹¹ Hala ka kaa sohõ mo ay gaahamo gonda gaabi. Danga hano din hane, yaadin cine no ay bara nd'a baa sohõ, wongu se, wala fattayaŋ da furoyaŋ se.

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.

¹² Kala ni m'ay no tondo wo, kaŋ Rabbi n'a sanni te alwaato din, zama zaaro din ni maa Anak borey kaŋ go nango din ra baaru. Birney mo cinari-kuuku-koyyaŋ no, kaŋ ga beeri mo. Hambara Rabbi g'ay gaa ay m'i gaaray mo, danga mate kaŋ cine Rabbi ci.»

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

¹³ Kala Yasuwa n'a albarkandi, a na Hebron no Yefunna izo Kaleb se, a m'a tubu.

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.

¹⁴ Hebron binde ciya Yefunna ize Kaleb, Keni kuray bora se tubu hari hala hunkuna, zama a na Rabbi Israyla Irikoyo gana da bine folloŋ.

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

¹⁵ Amma waato Hebron maa ga ti Ciriyat-Arba. Arba wo no ga ti Anak borey ra boro bambata. Laabo mo du fulanzamay wongu gaa.
