Joshua 14:1-15

14:1

And these [are the countries] which the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>

inherited
<05157> (8804)

in the land
<0776>

of Canaan
<03667>_,

which Eleazar
<0499>

the priest
<03548>_,

and Joshua
<03091>

the son
<01121>

of Nun
<05126>_,

and the heads
<07218>

of the fathers
<01>

of the tribes
<04294>

of the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>_,

distributed for inheritance
<05157> (8765)

to them.

14:2

By lot
<01486>

[was] their inheritance
<05159>_,

as the LORD
<03068>

commanded
<06680> (8765)

by the hand
<03027>

of Moses
<04872>_,

for the nine
<08672>

tribes
<04294>_,

and [for] the half
<02677>

tribe
<04294>_.

14:3

For Moses
<04872>

had given
<05414> (8804)

the inheritance
<05159>

of two
<08147>

tribes
<04294>

and an half
<02677>

tribe
<04294>

on the other side
<05676>

Jordan
<03383>_:

but unto the Levites
<03881>

he gave
<05414> (8804)

none inheritance
<05159>

among
<08432>

them.

14:4

For the children
<01121>

of Joseph
<03130>

were two
<08147>

tribes
<04294>_,

Manasseh
<04519>

and Ephraim
<0669>_:

therefore they gave
<05414> (8804)

no part
<02506>

unto the Levites
<03881>

in the land
<0776>_,

save cities
<05892>

to dwell
<03427> (8800)

[in], with their suburbs
<04054>

for their cattle
<04735>

and for their substance
<07075>_.

14:5

As the LORD
<03068>

commanded
<06680> (8765)

Moses
<04872>_,

so the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>

did
<06213> (8804)_,

and they divided
<02505> (8799)

the land
<0776>_.

14:6

Then the children
<01121>

of Judah
<03063>

came
<05066> (8799)

unto Joshua
<03091>

in Gilgal
<01537>_:

and Caleb
<03612>

the son
<01121>

of Jephunneh
<03312>

the Kenezite
<07074>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, Thou knowest
<03045> (8804)

the thing
<01697>

that the LORD
<03068>

said
<01696> (8765)

unto Moses
<04872>

the man
<0376>

of God
<0430>

concerning me
<0182>

and thee
<0182>

in Kadeshbarnea
<06947>_.

14:7

Forty
<0705>

years
<08141>

old
<01121>

[was] I when Moses
<04872>

the servant
<05650>

of the LORD
<03068>

sent
<07971> (8800)

me from Kadeshbarnea
<06947>

to espy out
<07270> (8763)

the land
<0776>_;

and I brought
<07725> (0)

him word
<01697>

again
<07725> (8686)

as [it was] in mine heart
<03824>_.

14:8

Nevertheless my brethren
<0251>

that went up
<05927> (8804)

with me made the heart
<03820>

of the people
<05971>

melt
<04529> (8689)_:

but I wholly
<04390> (8765)

followed
<0310>

the LORD
<03068>

my God
<0430>_.

14:9

And Moses
<04872>

sware
<07650> (8735)

on that day
<03117>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Surely the land
<0776>

whereon thy feet
<07272>

have trodden
<01869> (8804)

shall be thine inheritance
<05159>_,

and thy children's
<01121>

for
<05704>

ever
<05769>_,

because thou hast wholly
<04390> (8765)

followed
<0310>

the LORD
<03068>

my God
<0430>_.

14:10

And now, behold, the LORD
<03068>

hath kept me alive
<02421> (8689)_,

as he said
<01696> (8765)_,

these forty
<0705>

and five
<02568>

years
<08141>_,

even since
<0227>

the LORD
<03068>

spake
<01696> (8765)

this word
<01697>

unto Moses
<04872>_,

while [the children of] Israel
<03478>

wandered
<01980> (8804)

in the wilderness
<04057>_:

and now, lo, I [am] this day
<03117>

fourscore
<08084>

and five
<02568>

years
<08141>

old
<01121>_.

{wandered: Heb. walked}

14:11

As yet I [am as] strong
<02389>

this day
<03117>

as [I was] in the day
<03117>

that Moses
<04872>

sent
<07971> (8800)

me: as my strength
<03581>

[was] then, even so [is] my strength
<03581>

now, for war
<04421>_,

both to go out
<03318> (8800)_,

and to come in
<0935> (8800)_.

14:12

Now therefore give
<05414> (8798)

me this mountain
<02022>_,

whereof the LORD
<03068>

spake
<01696> (8765)

in that day
<03117>_;

for thou heardest
<08085> (8804)

in that day
<03117>

how the Anakims
<06062>

[were] there, and [that] the cities
<05892>

[were] great
<01419>

[and] fenced
<01219> (8803)_:

if so be
<0194>

the LORD
<03068>

[will be] with
<0854>

me, then I shall be able to drive them out
<03423> (8689)_,

as the LORD
<03068>

said
<01696> (8765)_.

14:13

And Joshua
<03091>

blessed
<01288> (8762)

him, and gave
<05414> (8799)

unto Caleb
<03612>

the son
<01121>

of Jephunneh
<03312>

Hebron
<02275>

for an inheritance
<05159>_.

14:14

Hebron
<02275>

therefore became the inheritance
<05159>

of Caleb
<03612>

the son
<01121>

of Jephunneh
<03312>

the Kenezite
<07074>

unto this day
<03117>_,

because that he wholly
<04390> (8765)

followed
<0310>

the LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>_.

14:15

And the name
<08034>

of Hebron
<02275>

before
<06440>

[was] Kirjatharba
<07153>_;

[which Arba was] a great
<01419>

man
<0120>

among the Anakims
<06062>_.

And the land
<0776>

had rest
<08252> (8804)

from war
<04421>_.
