约书亚记 14
Chinese Union Version Modern Punctuation (Simplified)
九支派半所得之地
14 以色列人在迦南地所得的产业,就是祭司以利亚撒和嫩的儿子约书亚并以色列各支派的族长所分给他们的,都记在下面, 2 是照耶和华借摩西所吩咐的,把产业拈阄分给九个半支派。
利未人无地为业
3 原来摩西在约旦河东已经把产业分给那两个半支派,只是在他们中间没有把产业分给利未人。 4 因为约瑟的子孙是两个支派,就是玛拿西和以法莲,所以没有把地分给利未人,但给他们城邑居住,并城邑的郊野,可以牧养他们的牲畜,安置他们的财物。 5 耶和华怎样吩咐摩西,以色列人就照样行,把地分了。
6 那时,犹大人来到吉甲见约书亚,有基尼洗族耶孚尼的儿子迦勒对约书亚说:“耶和华在加低斯巴尼亚指着我与你对神人摩西所说的话,你都知道了。 7 耶和华的仆人摩西从加低斯巴尼亚打发我窥探这地,那时我正四十岁,我按着心意回报他。 8 然而同我上去的众弟兄使百姓的心消化,但我专心跟从耶和华我的神。 9 当日摩西起誓说:‘你脚所踏之地定要归你和你的子孙永远为业,因为你专心跟从耶和华我的神。’ 10 自从耶和华对摩西说这话的时候,耶和华照他所应许的,使我存活这四十五年,其间以色列人在旷野行走。看哪,现今我八十五岁了, 11 我还是强壮,像摩西打发我去的那天一样。无论是争战是出入,我的力量那时如何,现在还是如何。 12 求你将耶和华那日应许我的这山地给我。那里有亚衲族人,并宽大坚固的城,你也曾听见了。或者耶和华照他所应许的与我同在,我就把他们赶出去。”
迦勒得希伯仑为业
13 于是约书亚为耶孚尼的儿子迦勒祝福,将希伯仑给他为业。 14 所以希伯仑做了基尼洗族耶孚尼的儿子迦勒的产业,直到今日,因为他专心跟从耶和华以色列的神。 15 希伯仑从前名叫基列亚巴,亚巴是亚衲族中最尊大的人。于是国中太平,没有争战了。

Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)
約旦河西土地的分配
14 以下是祭司以利亞撒、嫩的兒子約書亞和以色列各支派的首領在迦南分給以色列人的產業, 2 是照耶和華給摩西的指示,用抽籤的方式分給九個半支派的。 3 摩西在約旦河東已經把產業分給了呂便、迦得支派和瑪拿西半個支派,只是沒有把產業分給利未人。 4 約瑟的子孫已分為瑪拿西和以法蓮兩個支派。利未人沒有分到地,但有城邑居住,還有城郊可以牧養牲畜,安置財物。 5 以色列人照耶和華給摩西的指示分配這些土地。
迦勒分得希伯崙
6 那時,猶大支派的人來到吉甲見約書亞,其中有基尼洗族耶孚尼的兒子迦勒。他對約書亞說:「你知道耶和華在加低斯·巴尼亞跟上帝的僕人摩西提到關於你和我的事。 7 我四十歲那年,耶和華的僕人摩西從加低斯·巴尼亞派我來偵察這地方,我如實稟告他。 8 與我同去的弟兄的稟告令以色列人膽戰心驚,但我忠心地追隨我的上帝耶和華。 9 所以,當日摩西就向我起誓,『你腳踏過的地方必永遠歸你和你的子孫作產業,因為你忠心地追隨我的上帝耶和華。』 10 耶和華照祂的應許,讓我又活了四十五年,這些日子都是跟以色列人在曠野一起度過的。看!我現在已經八十五歲了, 11 仍像當年摩西派我出去時那樣身強力壯,跟當年一樣能征善戰。 12 現在,求你照耶和華當日向我應許的,把這山區賜給我。你親耳聽到那裡有亞衲人,他們的城池高大堅固。但如果耶和華與我同在,我必照著祂的應許把這些人趕走。」
13 於是,約書亞便祝福耶孚尼的兒子迦勒,把希伯崙給他,作為他的產業。 14 所以,希伯崙至今仍是基尼洗族耶孚尼的兒子迦勒的產業,因為他忠心地追隨以色列的上帝耶和華。 15 希伯崙從前名叫基列·亞巴,亞巴原是亞衲族中最偉大的人。從此,境內太平,沒有戰爭。
Joshua 14
New International Version
Division of the Land West of the Jordan
14 Now these are the areas the Israelites received as an inheritance(A) in the land of Canaan, which Eleazar(B) the priest, Joshua son of Nun and the heads of the tribal clans of Israel(C) allotted(D) to them.(E) 2 Their inheritances were assigned by lot(F) to the nine and a half tribes,(G) as the Lord had commanded through Moses. 3 Moses had granted the two and a half tribes their inheritance east of the Jordan(H) but had not granted the Levites an inheritance among the rest,(I) 4 for Joseph’s descendants had become two tribes—Manasseh and Ephraim.(J) The Levites received no share of the land but only towns to live in, with pasturelands for their flocks and herds.(K) 5 So the Israelites divided the land, just as the Lord had commanded Moses.(L)
Allotment for Caleb
6 Now the people of Judah approached Joshua at Gilgal,(M) and Caleb son of Jephunneh(N) the Kenizzite said to him, “You know what the Lord said to Moses the man of God(O) at Kadesh Barnea(P) about you and me.(Q) 7 I was forty years old when Moses the servant of the Lord sent me from Kadesh Barnea(R) to explore the land.(S) And I brought him back a report according to my convictions,(T) 8 but my fellow Israelites who went up with me made the hearts of the people melt in fear.(U) I, however, followed the Lord my God wholeheartedly.(V) 9 So on that day Moses swore to me, ‘The land on which your feet have walked will be your inheritance(W) and that of your children(X) forever, because you have followed the Lord my God wholeheartedly.’[a]
10 “Now then, just as the Lord promised,(Y) he has kept me alive for forty-five years since the time he said this to Moses, while Israel moved(Z) about in the wilderness. So here I am today, eighty-five years old!(AA) 11 I am still as strong(AB) today as the day Moses sent me out; I’m just as vigorous(AC) to go out to battle now as I was then. 12 Now give me this hill country that the Lord promised me that day.(AD) You yourself heard then that the Anakites(AE) were there and their cities were large and fortified,(AF) but, the Lord helping me, I will drive them out just as he said.”
13 Then Joshua blessed(AG) Caleb son of Jephunneh(AH) and gave him Hebron(AI) as his inheritance.(AJ) 14 So Hebron has belonged to Caleb son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite ever since, because he followed the Lord, the God of Israel, wholeheartedly.(AK) 15 (Hebron used to be called Kiriath Arba(AL) after Arba,(AM) who was the greatest man among the Anakites.)
Then the land had rest(AN) from war.

Joshua 14
King James Version
14 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.
2 By lot was their inheritance, as the Lord commanded by the hand of Moses, for the nine tribes, and for the half tribe.
3 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.
4 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.
5 As the Lord commanded Moses, so the children of Israel did, and they divided the land.
6 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.
7 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.
8 Nevertheless my brethren that went up with me made the heart of the people melt: but I wholly followed the Lord my God.
9 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.
10 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.
11 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.
12 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.
13 And Joshua blessed him, and gave unto Caleb the son of Jephunneh Hebron for an inheritance.
14 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.
15 And the name of Hebron before was Kirjatharba; which Arba was a great man among the Anakims. And the land had rest from war.
Joshua 14
New King James Version
The Land Divided West of the Jordan
14 These are the areas which the children of Israel inherited in the land of Canaan, (A)which Eleazar the priest, Joshua the son of Nun, and the heads of the fathers of the tribes of the children of Israel distributed as an inheritance to them. 2 Their inheritance was (B)by lot, as the Lord had commanded by the hand of Moses, for the nine tribes and the half-tribe. 3 (C)For Moses had given the inheritance of the two tribes and the half-tribe on the other side of the Jordan; but to the Levites he had given no inheritance among them. 4 For (D)the children of Joseph were two tribes: Manasseh and Ephraim. And they gave no part to the Levites in the land, except (E)cities to dwell in, with their common-lands for their livestock and their property. 5 (F)As the Lord had commanded Moses, so the children of Israel did; and they divided the land.
Caleb Inherits Hebron
6 Then the children of Judah came to Joshua in Gilgal. And Caleb the son of Jephunneh the (G)Kenizzite said to him: “You know (H)the word which the Lord said to Moses the man of God concerning (I)you and me in Kadesh Barnea. 7 I was forty years old when Moses the servant of the Lord (J)sent me from Kadesh Barnea to spy out the land, and I brought back word to him as it was in my heart. 8 Nevertheless (K)my brethren who went up with me made the [a]heart of the people melt, but I wholly (L)followed the Lord my God. 9 So Moses swore on that day, saying, (M)‘Surely the land (N)where your foot has trodden shall be your inheritance and your children’s forever, because you have wholly followed the Lord my God.’ 10 And now, behold, the Lord has kept me (O)alive, (P)as He said, these forty-five years, ever since the Lord spoke this word to Moses while Israel [b]wandered in the wilderness; and now, here I am this day, eighty-five years old. 11 (Q)As yet I am as strong this day as on the day that Moses sent me; just as my strength was then, so now is my strength for war, both (R)for going out and for coming in. 12 Now therefore, give me this mountain of which the Lord spoke in that day; for you heard in that day how (S)the Anakim were there, and that the cities were great and fortified. (T)It may be that the Lord will be with me, and (U)I shall be able to drive them out as the Lord said.”
13 And Joshua (V)blessed him, (W)and gave Hebron to Caleb the son of Jephunneh as an inheritance. 14 (X)Hebron therefore became the inheritance of Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite to this day, because he (Y)wholly followed the Lord God of Israel. 15 And (Z)the name of Hebron formerly was Kirjath Arba (Arba was the greatest man among the Anakim).
(AA)Then the land had rest from war.
