Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
1Now 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.
1以色列 人在 迦南 地所得的產業，就是祭司 以利亞撒 和 嫩 的兒子 約書亞 ，並 以色列 各支派的族長所分給他們的，都記在下面，
2Their inheritance was assigned by lot for the nine and a half tribes, as the LORD had commanded through Moses.
2是照耶和華藉 摩西 所吩咐的，把產業拈鬮分給九個半支派。
3For 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.
3原來， 摩西 在 約旦河 東已經把產業分給那兩個半支派，只是在他們中間沒有把產業分給 利未 人。
4The 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.
4因為 約瑟 的子孫是兩個支派，就是 瑪拿西 和 以法蓮 ，所以沒有把地分給 利未 人，但給他們城邑居住，並城邑的郊野，可以牧養他們的牲畜，安置他們的財物。
5So the Israelites did as the LORD had commanded Moses, and they divided the land.
5耶和華怎樣吩咐 摩西 ， 以色列 人就照樣行，把地分了。
6Then 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.
6那時， 猶大 人來到 吉甲 見 約書亞 ，有 基尼洗 族 耶孚尼 的兒子 迦勒 對 約書亞 說：「耶和華在 加低斯‧巴尼亞 指着我與你對神人 摩西 所說的話，你都知道了。
7I 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.
7耶和華的僕人 摩西 從 加低斯‧巴尼亞 打發我窺探這地，那時我正四十歲；我按着心意回報他。
8Although my brothers who went with me made the hearts of the people melt with fear, I remained loyal to the LORD my God.
8然而，同我上去的眾弟兄使百姓的心消化；但我專心跟從耶和華－我的上帝。
9On 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.’
9當日 摩西 起誓說：『你腳所踏之地定要歸你和你的子孫永遠為業，因為你專心跟從耶和華－我的上帝。』
10Now 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,
10自從耶和華對 摩西 說這話的時候，耶和華照他所應許的使我存活這四十五年；其間 以色列 人在曠野行走。看哪，現今我八十五歲了，
11still 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.
11我還是強壯，像 摩西 打發我去的那天一樣；無論是爭戰，是出入，我的力量那時如何，現在還是如何。
12Now 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.”
12求你將耶和華那日應許我的這山地給我；那裏有 亞衲 族人，並寬大堅固的城，你也曾聽見了。或者耶和華照他所應許的與我同在，我就把他們趕出去。」
13Then Joshua blessed Caleb son of Jephunneh and gave him Hebron as his inheritance.
13於是 約書亞 為 耶孚尼 的兒子 迦勒 祝福，將 希伯崙 給他為業。
14Therefore 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.
14所以 希伯崙 作了 基尼洗 族 耶孚尼 的兒子 迦勒 的產業，直到今日，因為他專心跟從耶和華－ 以色列 的上帝。
15(Hebron used to be called Kiriath-arba, after Arba, the greatest man among the Anakim.) Then the land had rest from war.
15希伯崙 從前名叫 基列‧亞巴 ； 亞巴 是 亞衲 族中最尊大的人。於是國中太平，沒有爭戰了。
