¶ The .xiiii. Chapter. ¶ Caleb requyreth the herytage that was promysed hym, and Debron was geuen hym.

A   And these are the contreyes which the chyldren of Israell enhereted in þe; lande of Canaan, note which Eleazer the preaste, and Iosua the sonne of Nun and the auncient heades of þe; trybes of the chyldr&ebar; of Israell, distributed to them. noteBy lotte they receaued their possessions as the Lorde c&obar;maunded by þe; h&abar;de of Moses, to geue vnto the nyne trybes, ∧ vnto þe; halfe trybe. For Moses had geuen enherita&ubar;ce vnto two trybes and an halfe on þe; other syde Iord&abar;. But vnto þe; Leuites he gaue none enherita&ubar;ce am&obar;ge th&ebar;. noteFor the childr&ebar; of Ioseph were two tribes, Manasses ∧ Ephraim. And therfore they gaue no parte vnto the Leuites in the land, saue cyties to dwell in with the suburbes of the same, for their beastes and cattell. noteAs the Lorde commaunded Moses: euen so þe; children of Israel did wh&ebar; they deuided þe; l&abar;de.

B   And the childr&ebar; of Iuda came vnto Iosua in Gilgall. noteAnd Caleb the sonne of The deuysion Of the land. Iephune þe; kenesyte sayde vnto hym: thou wottest what the Lorde sayd vnto Moses the m&abar; of God, about my matter &abar;d thyne in Cades Barne. noteFourty yeare olde was I wh&ebar; Moses the serua&ubar;t of the Lorde sent me fr&obar; Cades Barne to spie out the lande. And I brought hym worde agayne eu&ebar; as it was &ibar; myne herte. Neuerthelesse my brethren that went vp wyth me, dyscouraged the herte of the people. And I folowed the Lorde God.

C   And Moses sware þe; same daye, saying: note the lande wheron thy fete haue troaden, shalbe thyne enherita&ubar;ce and thy chyldr&ebar;s for euer, because þu; hast folowed the Lorde God. And beholde, the Lorde hath kept me alyue (as he sayde) note this fourtye and fyue yeares, eu&ebar; sence the Lord spake this word vnto Moses, whyle the chyldren of Israell wanderyd in the wyldernesse. And now lo, I am this daye foure skore ∧ fyue yere old: ∧ yet am as stronge at this tyme, as I was when Moses sent me: looke how stronge I was th&ebar;, so strong am I now whether I go to warre, or come agayne.

D   Now therfore geue me thys mountayne wherof the Lorde spake in that daye, for þu; herdest in that daye, how the Enakins are there, and the cities great ∧ walled. Peraduenture the Lorde wilbe with me, ∧ I shall he able to dryue th&ebar; out, as the Lorde sayd. And Iosua blessed him, ∧ gaue vnto Caleb the sonne of Iephune, &rhand; Hebr&obar; to enheret. And Hebr&obar; therfore became þe; enheritaunce of Caleb the sonne of Iephune the kenesite, vnto thys daye: because he folowed þe; Lord God of Israell. And the name of note Hebron was called in olde tyme, kariatharbe. For the same was a great m&abar; am&obar;ge the Enakims. And the &rhand; lande ceased from warre.
