King James Version
Now
these are the portions
that
the Israelites
inherited in the land of Canaan, as
distributed
by
Eleazar the priest, Joshua son of Nun, and the heads of the families
of the tribes of Israel.
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
.
Their inheritance was
assigned
by lot
for the nine and
a
half
tribes, as
the LORD
had
commanded
through
Moses
.
By
lot
was
their inheritance ,
as
the
LORD
commanded
by the
hand
of
Moses,
for the nine tribes, and
for
the half
tribe
.
For Moses had given the inheritance east
of the
Jordan
to
the
other
two and a
half tribes.
But he granted
no
inheritance among them to
the
Levites
.
For 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.
The descendants
of Joseph became
two tribes, Manasseh and Ephraim .
And
no portion
of
the
land
was
given
to
the Levites, except
for
cities in
which
to live
, along
with pasturelands
for their flocks
and herds
.
For
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
.
So
the
Israelites
did
as the LORD had
commanded Moses, and they divided the land.
As the LORD commanded Moses, so
the
children
of
Israel
did,
and they divided the land.
Then the sons
of Judah approached
Joshua at
Gilgal ,
and Caleb son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite
said to
him, “You
know
what
the LORD said to
Moses the man of God at
Kadesh-barnea
about
you
and
me.
Then 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
.
I
was
forty years old when Moses the servant of the LORD sent me from Kadesh-barnea
to spy
out the land ,
and I brought back
to
him an
honest
report
.
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
mine
heart
.
Although
my brothers
who
went with me made the hearts
of the people melt with
fear,
I remained
loyal
to
the LORD my God.
Nevertheless
my brethren
that
went up
with me made the heart
of the people melt :
but
I wholly
followed
the LORD my God.
On that day Moses
swore
to
me
, saying, ‘
Surely the land on
which
you
have set
foot
will
be an
inheritance to
you
and your
children
forever
, because you
have
wholly followed the LORD my God. ’
And
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.
Now behold, as
the LORD promised,
He
has
kept me alive these forty -
five years since He
spoke
this word to
Moses, while Israel wandered in the wilderness .
So
here
I am today,
eighty-
five years old ,
And
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 .
still
as strong today
as I was the day Moses sent me out.
As my strength was then, so it
is now for war, for
going
out, and for
coming
in.
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.
Now therefore give me this hill
country
that
the LORD promised
me
on
that day ,
for you
yourself
heard
then
that the Anakim
were there, with
great
and fortified
cities .
Perhaps
with
the LORD’s
help
I
will drive them out, as the LORD has
spoken
. ”
Now 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
.
Then
Joshua blessed Caleb son of Jephunneh and
gave
him
Hebron as
his
inheritance.
And
Joshua blessed him,
and
gave
unto
Caleb the
son of Jephunneh Hebron for
an
inheritance.
Therefore
Hebron belongs
to
Caleb son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite
as
an
inheritance
to
this day, because he wholly followed the LORD ,
the
God of Israel.
Hebron 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.
(
Hebron used
to
be
called
Kiriath-arba,
after
Arba ,
the
greatest
man among the Anakim
. )
Then
the land had rest from war.
And
the
name
of
Hebron before
was
Kirjatharba;
which
Arba was
a
great
man among the Anakims
. And
the land had rest from war.
