This is what the children of Israel have inherited in the land of Canaan, which Eleazar the priest and Joshua the son of Nun divided them for their inheritance, and the rulers of the generations in the tribes of the children of Israel; |
2
|
By lot, they divided, as the Lord commanded by the hand of Moses, to the nine tribes and to the half of the tribe [Manasseh], |
3
|
For to the two tribes and to the half of the tribe [Manasseh] Moses gave the inheritance beyond the Jordan, the Levites did not give the inheritance between them; |
4
|
For from the sons of Joseph came two tribes: Manasseh and Ephraim; Therefore they did not give the Levites any part in the land, [but only] cities to live with their suburbs for their livestock and for their [other] benefits. |

|
As the LORD commanded Moses, so did the children of Israel, when they divided the land.

The sons of Judah came to Gilgal to Jesus. And Caleb the son of Jephunneh, the Keneshite, said to him, "You know what the Lord said to Moses, the man of God, about me and about you in Kadesh-barnea; |

I was forty years old when Moses, a slave of the Lord, sent me from Kadesh-Barney to examine the land, and I brought back to him what was in my heart: |
8
|
The brethren of mine who walked with me brought the heart of the people to shyness, and I followed the Lord my God exactly; |
9
|
And Moses sware that day, and said, The land that your foot went about will be to you and to your children for ever, for you have exactly followed the Lord my God; |
10
|
Now, behold, the Lord hath kept me alive, as he spake; It is forty-five years from the time when the Lord spoke this word to Moses, and Israel walked in the wilderness; Now, behold, I am eighty-five years old; |
eleven
|
But now I am as strong as I was when Moses sent me: how much power I had at that time, there is so much now to fight and go out and enter; |
12
|
Now give me this mountain, about which the Lord spoke that day; Because you heard on that day that the Anakims were there, and the cities were large and fortified; Perhaps the Lord will be with me, and I will drive them out, as the Lord said. |

Jesus blessed him, and gave Hebron for the inheritance of Caleb the son of Jephunneh. |
14
|
Thus Hebron remained the lot of Caleb, the son of Jephunneh, the Keneshite, to this day, because he exactly followed the [command] of the Lord God of Israel. |

|
The name of Hebron was formerly Kiriath-Arba, as the great man was called among the sons of Enak. And the earth calmed down from the war. |
