< 約書亞記 15 >
1 猶大支派的子孫按照家族,抽籤分得的土地是在極南部,以厄東邊境為界,南至親曠野。
The lot for the tribe of the children of Judah according to their families was to the border of Edom, even to the wilderness of Zin southward, at the uttermost part of the south.
Their south border was from the uttermost part of the Salt Sea, from the bay that looks southward;
3 沿阿刻辣賓山坡之南,經親曠野,上至卡德士巴爾乃亞之南,再由此經過赫茲龍,上至阿達爾,再繞過卡爾卡,
and it went out southward of the ascent of Akrabbim, and passed along to Zin, and went up by the south of Kadesh Barnea, and passed along by Hezron, went up to Addar, and turned toward Karka;
4 穿過阿茲孟直到埃及小河,而後廷至大海:以上是他們南方的邊界。
and it passed along to Azmon, went out at the brook of Egypt; and the border ended at the sea. This shall be your south border.
5 東方的邊界是起自鹽海直到約旦河口;北方的是起自約旦河口的海灣,
The east border was the Salt Sea, even to the end of the Jordan. The border of the north quarter was from the bay of the sea at the end of the Jordan.
6 上至貝特曷革拉,經過貝特阿拉巴北部,上至勒烏本人波罕的盤石;
The border went up to Beth Hoglah, and passed along by the north of Beth Arabah; and the border went up to the stone of Bohan the son of Reuben.
7 再由此上至德彼爾,沿阿苛爾山谷,往北轉向位於谷南的阿杜明山坡對面的革里羅特,再經默士水泉,直到洛革耳泉。
The border went up to Debir from the valley of Achor, and so northward, looking toward Gilgal, that faces the ascent of Adummim, which is on the south side of the river. The border passed along to the waters of En Shemesh, and ended at En Rogel.
8 以後再由此由本希農山谷而上,直達耶步斯,即耶路撒冷的南側,再上至俯視本希農山谷西方的山頂,這山位於勒法因平原的北端。
The border went up by the valley of the son of Hinnom to the side of the Jebusite (also called Jerusalem) southward; and the border went up to the top of the mountain that lies before the valley of Hinnom westward, which is at the farthest part of the valley of Rephaim northward.
9 再由這山頂轉向乃費托亞水泉,直到厄斐龍山,然後轉向巴阿拉,──即克黎雅特耶阿陵。
The border extended from the top of the mountain to the spring of the waters of Nephtoah, and went out to the cities of Mount Ephron; and the border extended to Baalah (also called Kiriath Jearim);
10 再從巴阿拉向西折向肥依爾山,繞過耶阿陵即革撒隆山脊北部,下至貝特舍默士,經過提默納,
and the border turned about from Baalah westward to Mount Seir, and passed along to the side of Mount Jearim (also called Chesalon) on the north, and went down to Beth Shemesh, and passed along by Timnah;
11 直至厄刻龍山脊北部,再繞過史加龍,經巴阿拉山,直到雅貝乃耳,最後至海為止。
and the border went out to the side of Ekron northward; and the border extended to Shikkeron, and passed along to Mount Baalah, and went out at Jabneel; and the goings out of the border were at the sea.
12 西方的邊界以大海海濱為界:以上是猶大子孫按照家族所分得的地區四周的邊界。
The west border was to the shore of the great sea. This is the border of the children of Judah according to their families.
13 若蘇厄遵照上主的吩咐,將猶大子孫中的一部分土地,即克黎雅特阿爾巴,分給了耶孚乃的兒子加肋布。阿爾巴是阿納克的祖先,阿爾巴即是赫貝龍。
He gave to Caleb the son of Jephunneh a portion among the children of Judah, according to the commandment of the LORD to Joshua, even Kiriath Arba, named after the father of Anak (also called Hebron).
14 加肋布從那裏趕走了阿納克的三個子孫:舍瑟、阿希曼和塔爾耳買;他們是阿納克的後代。
Caleb drove out the three sons of Anak: Sheshai, and Ahiman, and Talmai, the children of Anak.
15 加肋布又從那裏上去,攻打了德彼爾固民。──德彼爾以叫克黎雅特色費爾。
He went up against the inhabitants of Debir: now the name of Debir before was Kiriath Sepher.
16 加肋布說:「誰能征服或拿下克黎雅特色費爾,我便將我的女兒阿革撒給他為妻。」
Caleb said, “He who strikes Kiriath Sepher, and takes it, to him I will give Achsah my daughter as wife.”
17 加肋布的弟兄,刻納次的兒子敖特尼奪下了那城,加肋布便將自己的女兒阿革撒給他為妻。
Othniel the son of Kenaz, the brother of Caleb, took it: and he gave him Achsah his daughter as wife.
18 阿革撒快門的時候,丈夫勸她向她的們父親要求一塊田地。阿革撒一下驢,加肋布便向她說:「妳要﹖」什麼
When she came, she had him ask her father for a field. She got off her donkey, and Caleb said, “What do you want?”
19 阿革撒答說:「請你給我一件禮物;即要把我安放在南方的旱地,求你也將水泉給我。」她的父親就把上泉和下泉賜給了她。
She said, “Give me a blessing. Because you have set me in the land of the South, give me also springs of water.” So he gave her the upper springs and the lower springs.
This is the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Judah according to their families.
