Joshua 14:1 (GNB) Good News Bible

1 What follows is an account of how the land of Canaan west of the Jordan was divided among the people of Israel. Eleazar the priest, Joshua son of Nun, and the leaders of the families of the Israelite tribes divided it among the population.
2 As the LORD had commanded Moses, the territories of the nine and one-half tribes west of the Jordan were determined by drawing lots.
3 Moses had already assigned the land east of the Jordan to the other two and one-half tribes. (The descendants of Joseph were divided into two tribes: Manasseh and Ephraim.) However, Moses gave the Levites no portion of the territory. Instead, they received cities to live in, with fields for their cattle and flocks.
4 (SEE 14:3)
5 The people of Israel divided the land as the LORD had commanded Moses.
6 One day some people from the tribe of Judah came to Joshua at Gilgal. One of them, Caleb son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite, said to him, "You know what the LORD said in Kadesh Barnea about you and me to Moses, the man of God.
7 I was forty years old when the LORD's servant Moses sent me from Kadesh Barnea to spy out this land. I brought an honest report back to him.
8 The men who went with me, however, made our people afraid. But I faithfully obeyed the LORD my God.
9 Because I did, Moses promised me that my children and I would certainly receive as our possession the land which I walked over.
10 But now, look. It has been forty-five years since the LORD said that to Moses. That was when Israel was going through the desert, and the LORD, as he promised, has kept me alive ever since. Look at me! I am eighty-five years old
11 and am just as strong today as I was when Moses sent me out. I am still strong enough for war or for anything else.
12 Now then, give me the hill country that the LORD promised me on that day when my men and I reported. We told you then that the race of giants called the Anakim were there in large walled cities. Maybe the LORD will be with me, and I will drive them out, just as the LORD said."
13 Joshua blessed Caleb son of Jephunneh and gave him the city of Hebron as his possession.
14 Hebron still belongs to the descendants of Caleb son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite, because he faithfully obeyed the LORD, the God of Israel.
15 Before this, Hebron was called the city of Arba. (Arba had been the greatest of the Anakim.) There was now peace in the land.
1 And these H428 W-PMP are the countries which H834 RPRO the children H1121 of Israel H3478 inherited H5157 in the land H776 B-GFS of Canaan H3667 EMS , which H834 RPRO Eleazar H499 the priest H3548 , and Joshua H3091 the son H1121 of Nun H5126 , and the heads H7218 of the fathers H1 of the tribes H4294 of the children H1121 L-CMP of Israel H3478 LMS , distributed for inheritance H5157 to them .
2 By lot H1486 was their inheritance H5159 , as H834 K-RPRO the LORD H3068 EDS commanded H6680 VPQ3MS by the hand H3027 B-CFS of Moses H4872 , for the nine H8672 tribes H4294 , and for the half H2677 tribe H4294 .
3 For H3588 CONJ Moses H4872 had given H5414 VQQ3MS the inheritance H5159 of two H8147 ONUM tribes H4294 and a half H2677 tribe H4294 on the other side H5676 M-CMS Jordan H3383 : but unto the Levites H3881 he gave H5414 VQQ3MS none H3808 ADV inheritance H5159 NFS among H8432 B-CMS-3MP them .
4 For H3588 CONJ the children H1121 of Joseph H3130 were H1961 VQQ3MP two H8147 ONUM tribes H4294 , Manasseh H4519 and Ephraim H669 : therefore they gave H5414 no H3808 W-NPAR part H2506 CMS unto the Levites H3881 in the land H776 B-NFS , save H518 PART cities H5892 GFP to dwell H3427 L-VQFC in , with their suburbs H4054 for their cattle H4735 and for their substance H7075 .
5 As H834 K-RPRO the LORD H3068 EDS commanded H6680 VPQ3MS Moses H4872 , so H3651 ADV the children H1121 of Israel H3478 did H6213 VQQ3MP , and they divided H2505 the land H776 D-GFS .
6 Then the children H1121 of Judah H3063 came H5066 unto H413 PREP Joshua H3091 in Gilgal H1537 : and Caleb H3612 the son H1121 of Jephunneh H3312 the Kenezite H7074 said H559 W-VQY3MS unto H413 PREP-3MS him , Thou H859 PPRO-2MS knowest H3045 VQQ2MS the thing H1697 D-NMS that H834 RPRO the LORD H3068 EDS said H1696 VPQ3MS unto H413 PREP Moses H4872 the man H376 NMS of God H430 D-EDP concerning H5921 PREP me and thee in Kadesh H6947 - barnea .
7 Forty H705 MMP years H8141 NFS old H1121 was I H595 PPRO-1MS when Moses H4872 the servant H5650 of the LORD H3068 EDS sent H7971 me from Kadesh H6947 - barnea to espy out H7270 the land H776 D-GFS ; and I brought H7725 him word H1697 VQPMS again as H834 K-RPRO it was in H5973 PREP mine heart H3824 CMS-1MS .
8 Nevertheless my brethren H251 that H834 RPRO went up H5927 with H5973 me made the heart H3820 NMS of the people H5971 melt H4529 : but I H595 W-PPRO-1MS wholly H4390 followed H310 PREP the LORD H3068 EDS my God H430 CMP-1MS .
9 And Moses H4872 swore H7650 on that H1931 D-PPRO-3MS day H3117 B-AMS , saying H559 L-VQFC , Surely H518 PART the land H776 D-GFS whereon H834 RPRO thy feet H7272 CFS-2MS have trodden H1869 shall be H1961 thine inheritance H5159 , and thy children H1121 \'s forever H5704 PREP , because H3588 CONJ thou hast wholly H4390 followed H310 PREP the LORD H3068 EDS my God H430 CMP-1MS .

11 As yet H5750 I am as strong H2389 AMS this day H3117 B-NMS as H834 K-RPRO I was in the day H3117 B-NMS that Moses H4872 sent H7971 me : as my strength H3581 was then H227 ADV , even so is my strength H3581 now H6258 , for war H4421 , both to go out H3318 , and to come in H935 .
12 Now H6258 W-ADV therefore give H5414 me this H2088 D-PMS mountain H2022 , whereof H834 RPRO the LORD H3068 EDS spoke H1696 VPQ3MS in that H1931 D-PPRO-3MS day H3117 B-AMS ; for H3588 CONJ thou H859 heardest H8085 VQQ2MS in that H1931 D-PPRO-3MS day H3117 how H3588 CONJ the Anakims H6062 were there H8033 ADV , and that the cities H5892 were great H1419 and fenced H1219 : if H194 ADV so be the LORD H3068 EDS will be with H854 me , then I shall be able to drive them out H3423 , as H834 RPRO the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS said H1696 VPQ3MS .

15 And the name H8034 W-CMS of Hebron H2275 before H6440 L-NMP was Kirjath H7153 - arba ; which Arba was a great H1419 D-AMS man H120 D-NMS among the Anakims H6062 . And the land H776 WD-GFS had rest H8252 from war H4421 .
