1 This then was the lot of the tribe of the children of Praised (Judah) by their families; from the border of Red (Edom) the wilderness of Flat (Zin) southward was the uttermost part of the south coast.
2 And their south border was from the
shore of the salt sea, from the bay that looks southward:
3 And it went out to the south side to Ascent
of Scorpions (Maalehacrabbim), and passed along to Flat (Zin), and ascended up
on the south side to Holy (Kadeshbarnea), and passed along to Surrounded By a
Wall (Hezron), and went up to Exceeding Glorious (Adar), and then up to Floor
(Karkaa):
4 From there it passed toward Strong
(Azmon) and went out to the river of Double Straights (Egypt), and along the
sea: this shall be your southern border.
5 The east border was the salt sea to the
end of The Descender (Jordan). And their border in the north quarter was from
the bay of the sea at the uttermost part of The Descender (Jordan):
6 And the border went up to House of the
Partridge (Bethhogla), and passed along by the north of House of the Desert
Valley (Betharabah; then the border went up to the stone of Thumb (Bohan) the
son of Behold a Son (Reuben):
7 From there the border went up toward Sanctuary
(Debir) from the valley of Trouble (Achor), and so northward, looking toward Rolling
Wheel (Gilgal), that is before going up to Red Spots (Adummim), which is on the
south side of the river: and the border passed toward the waters of Fountain of
the Sun (Enshemesh), and the goings out thereof were at Fountain of the Fuller
(Enrogel):
8 Then the border went up by the valley
of the son of Lamentation (Hinnom) to the south side of the Trodden Underfoot
(Jebusite); the same is Rain of Peace (Jerusalem): and the border went up to
the top of the mountain that lies before the valley of Lamentation (Hinnom)
westward, which is at the end of the valley of the giants northward:
9 The border was drawn from the top of
the hill to the fountain of the water of Opening (Nephtoah), and went out to
the cities of Mount Fawn-Like (Ephron); and the border was drawn to Mistress
(Baalah), which is City of Forests (Kirjathjearim):
10 The border ran from Mistress (Baalah)
westward to Mount Shaggy (Seir), and passed along to the side of Mount Forests
(Jearim), which is Hopes (Chesalon), on the north side, and went down to House
of the Sun (Bethshemesh), and passed on to Restrained (Timna):
11 From there the border went out to the
side of Torn Up by the Roots (Ekron) northward: and the border was drawn to Drunkenness
(Shicron), it passed along to Mount Mistress (Baalah), and went out to God
Causes to Build (Jabneel), and the goings out of the border were at the sea.
12 The west border was the Great Sea and
the coast thereof. This is the territory of the children of Praised (Judah)
round about according to their families.
13 To Dog (Caleb) the son of He Will Face
(Jephunneh) he gave a part among the children of Praised (Judah), according to
the commandment of I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) to I AM is Salvation (Joshua): the
city of Four (Arba) the father of Neck (Anak), which city is Association
(Hebron).
14 Dog (Caleb) drove out from there the
three sons of Neck (Anak), Noble (Sheshai), and My Brother is a Gift (Ahiman),
and Furrowed (Talmai), the children of Neck (Anak).
15 Then he went up there to the
inhabitants of Sanctuary (Debir): and the name of Sanctuary (Debir) before was City
of the Book (Kirjathsepher).
16 And Dog (Caleb) said: He that smites City
of the Book (Kirjathsepher), and taketh it, to him will I give Anklet (Achsah)
my daughter to wife.
17 So Lion of God (Othniel) the son of Hunter
(Kenaz), the brother of Dog (Caleb), took it: and he gave him Anklet (Achsah)
his daughter to wife.
18 It came to pass, as she came to him,
that she moved him to ask of her father a field: and she lighted off her ass;
and Dog (Caleb) said to her: What would you like?
19 She answered: Give me a blessing; for you
have given me a south land; give me also springs of water. So, he gave her the
upper springs and the Abundant (Ether) springs.
20 This is the inheritance of the tribe
of the children of Praised (Judah) according to their families.
