Joshua 15

1 Judah ca rhoek neh a hui a ko tarahing ah tuithim kah Zin khosoek Edom khorhi, tuithim khobawt te amih koca kah hmulung la a om pah.

And so, the lot of the sons of Judah, by their families, was this: from the border of Edom, to the desert of Sin toward the south, and even to the furthest part of the southern region.

2 Te dongah lungkaeh li hmoi lamloh tuithim la aka hooi uh longken khaw, amih kah tuithim la om.

Its beginning was from the summit of the very salty sea, and from its bay, which looks toward the south.

3 Akrabbim kham tuithim ah a khuen tih Zin la kat. Te phoeiah Kadeshbarnea tuithim la cet tih Khetsron la a kat sak. Te lamkah loh Addar te a paan tih Karka la mael.

And it extends toward the ascent of the Scorpion, and it passes on to Sinai. And it ascends into Kadesh-barnea, and it passes through to Hezron, ascending to Addar, and encompassing Karka.

4 Te phoeiah Azmon la kat phai tih Egypt soklong te a doo. Te lamkah te tuili rhi kah longrhael ah aka om aka om tah nangmih ham tuithim khorhi la om.

And from there, it passes on to Azmon, and reaches to the torrent of Egypt. And its boundary shall be the great sea; this shall be the limit of the southern region.

5 Lungkaeh li lamkah loh Jordan tuikung due khothoeng khorhi la om tih tuili longken lamloh Jordan tuikung ah tlangpuei ben kah khorhi la om.

Yet truly, toward the east, the beginning shall be the very salty sea, even to the limit of the Jordan, and that which looks toward the north, from the bay of the sea, even to the same river Jordan.

6 Te phoeiah Bethhoglah khorhi la luei hang tih Bethkolken tlangpuei a paan phoeiah Reuben capa Bohan kah lungto rhi la luei.

And the border ascends into Beth-hoglah, and it crosses from the north into Beth-Arabah, ascending to the stone of Bohan, the son of Reuben.

7 Te phoeiah Akor kol lamloh Debir khorhi la luei bal tih soklong tuithim kah Adummim kham dan Gilgal ah tlangpuei la hooi uh. Te phoeiah khorhi loh Enshemesh tui te a paan tih Enrogel ah a bawtnah om.

And it reaches as far as the borders of Debara, from the Valley of Achor, to the north, looking toward Gilgal, which is opposite the Ascent of Adummim, on the southern part of the torrent. And it crosses the waters that are called the Fountain of the Sun. And its exit shall be at the Fountain of Rogel.

8 Kolrhawk khorhi tuithim kah Jebusi tlanghlaep ah Jerusalem la yong. Te phoeiah khorhi te tlangpuei kah Rapha kol hmoi, khotlak kolrhawk dan kah tlang soi la luei.

And it ascends by the steep valley of the son of Hinnom, from the side of the Jebusite, toward the south; this is Jerusalem. And from there, it raises itself to the top of the mountain, which is opposite Geennom to the west, at the top of the Valley of the Rephaim, to the north.

9 Te phoeiah khorhi te tlang so lamloh Nephtoah tuisih tui la ngooi thuk tih Ephron tlang kah khopuei rhoek te a paan phoeiah Kiriathjearim kah Baalah khorhi la rhum.

And it passes through, from the top of the mountain, even to the fountain of the Water of Nephtoah. And it continues on, as far as the villages of mount Ephron. And it inclines toward Baalah, which is Kiriath-jearim, that is, the City of Forests.

10 Baalah khotlak lamkah khorhi te Seir tlang la a ken bal tih Kesalon tlangpuei kah Jearim tlang hlaep la yong. Te phoeiah Bethshemesh la suntla tih Timnah la kat.

And it circles from Baalah, to the west, as far as mount Seir. And it passes by the side of mount Jearim, to the north, into Chesalon. And it descends into Beth-shemesh, and it passes through to Timnah.

11 Te phoeiah khorhi te tlangpuei kah Ekron hlaep la pawk tih Shikkron khorhi ngooi. Te phoeiah Baalah tlang a pah tih Jabneel a pha phoeiah tuitun rhi ah a bawtnah om.

And it continues on, toward the north, to a region beside Ekron. And it inclines toward Shikkeron, and it crosses to mount Baalah. And it extends into Jabneel, and the last part closes at the west with the great sea.

12 Te dongah khotlak tuili puei khorhi neh Judah ca rhoek kah khorhi he, amah huiko rhoek loh a vael khorhi la om.

These are the borders of the sons of Judah, in their families, on all sides.

13 BOEIPA kah olpaek vanbangla Joshua loh Judah koca lakli ah Jephuneh capa Kaleb ham Anakim napa Kiriatharba kah Hebron te khoyo la a phaeng.

Yet truly, to Caleb, the son of Jephunneh, he gave a portion in the midst of the sons of Judah, just as the Lord had instructed him: the City of Arba, the father of Anak, which is Hebron.

14 Te lamkah Anak koca pathum Sheshai, Ahiman neh Anakim cahlah Talmai te Kaleb loh a haek.

And Caleb destroyed from it the three sons of Anak, Sheshai, and Ahiman, and Talmai, of the stock of Anak.

15 Te lamloh Debir khosa rhoek khaw a khoong thil. Debir kah a ming rhuem tah Kiriathsepher ni.

And ascending further from there, he came to the inhabitants of Debir, which before was called Kiriath-Sepher, that is, the City of Letters.

16 Te vaengah Kaleb loh, “Kiriathsepher aka tloek tih aka lo te tah ka canu Akcah he a yuu la ka paek ni,” a ti.

And Caleb said, “Whoever will have struck down Kiriath-Sepher, and will have seized it, I will give to him Achsah, my daughter, as wife.”

17 Te dongah Kiriathsepher te Kaleb kah a manuca Kenaz capa Othniel loh a loh tih anih yuu la a canu Akcah te a paek.

And Othniel, the son of Kenaz, the younger brother of Caleb, seized it. And he gave him Achsah, his daughter, as wife.

18 Huta loh ham paan vaengah a napa taengkah khohmuen bih hamla a va te a vueh tih laak dong lamloh pawlh bit uh. Te dongah anih te Kaleb loh, “Nang tahh balae na ngaih,” a ti nah.

And as they were traveling together, she was urged by her husband that she ask her father for a field. And she sighed, as she was sitting on her donkey. And Caleb said to her, “What is it?”

19 Te dongah, “Kai ham khaw yoethennah nan khueh atah tuithim khohmuen ke kai m'pae lamtah tuidueh tui khaw kai ham na khueh bal mako,” a ti nah. Te dongah anih te a siip tuidueh neh a hnawt tuidueh rhoek te a paek.

But she answered: “Give a blessing to me. You have given to me a southern and dry land; join to it also a watered land.” And so Caleb gave to her the watered land above and below it.

20 He tah Judah ca rhoek loh amah koca khuiah a cako rhoek kah rho ni.
