CHAP. XIIII.
1 The nine tribes and a halfe are to haue their
inheritance by lot. 6 Caleb by priuiledge
obtaineth Hebron.
1
And these are the countreys
which the children of Israel
inherited in the lande
of Canaan, note which Eleazar
the Priest, ∧ Ioshua
the sonne of Nun, and the heads of the
fathers of the tribes of the children of
Israel distributed for inheritance to
them:
2
noteBy lot was their inheritance, as
the Lord commanded by the hande
of Moses, for the nine tribes, and for the
halfe tribe.
3
For Moses had giuen the inheritance
of two tribes and an halfe tribe,
on the other side Iordan: but vnto the
Leuites hee gaue none inheritance among
them.
4
For the children of Ioseph were
two tribes, Manasseh and Ephraim:
therefore they gaue no part vnto the
Leuites in the land, saue cities to dwell
in, with their suburbs for their cattell,
and for their substance.
5
noteAs the Lord commaunded
Moses, so the children of Israel did,
and they diuided the land.
6
¶ Then the children of Iudah
came vnto Ioshua in Gilgal: and Caleb
the sonne of Iephunneh the Kenezite,
said vnto him, Thou knowest the
thing that the Lord said vnto Moses
the man of God concerning me and
thee, in Kadesh Barnea.
7
Fourtie yeeres olde was I when
Moses the seruant of the Lord sent
me from Kadesh Barnea, to espie out
the land, and I brought him worde againe,
as it was in mine heart.
8
Neuerthelesse, my brethren that
went vp with me, made the heart of the
-- --
Calebs inheritance.
people melt: but I wholly note followed
the Lord my God.
9
And Moses sware on that day,
saying, Surely the land whereon thy
feet haue troden, shall be thine inheritance,
and thy childrens for euer, because
thou hast wholly followed the
Lord my God.
10
And now beholde, the Lord
hath kept me aliue, as he said, these forty
and fiue yeres, euen since the Lord
spake this word vnto Moses, while the
children of Israel note wandered in the
wildernesse: and now loe, I am this
day fourescore and fiue yeeres old.
11
noteAs yet I am as strong this day,
as I was in the day that Moses sent mee:
as my strength was then, euen so is my
strength now, for warre, both to goe
out and to come in.
12
Now therefore giue mee this
mountaine, 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 bee able to driue them out, as the
Lord said.
13
And Ioshua blessed him, and
gaue vnto Caleb the sonne of Iephunneh,
Hebron for an inheritance.
14
noteHebron therefore became the inheritance
of Caleb the sonne of Iephunneh
the Kenezite vnto this day:
because that hee wholly followed the
Lord God of Israel.
15
And note the name of Hebron before,
was Kiriath-Arba, which Arba was a
great man among the Anakims: and
the land had rest from warre.
