Joshua 15

1 Piny mane opog ni dhood Juda gi ombulu, kaluwore gi anywola margi, nochopo nyaka e gwenge mag Edom, kendo nyaka yo milambo e thim mar Zin.

Now the lot of the children of Juda by their kindreds was this: From the frontier of Edom, to the desert of Sin southward, and to the uttermost part of the south coast.

2 Tongʼ-gi ma yo milambo nochakore e giko mar Nam Chumbi ma yo milambo,

Its beginning was from the top of the most salt sea, and from the bay thereof, that looketh to the south.

3 kongʼado milambo mar Akrabim, kodhi nyime nyaka Zin, kendo ochwe nyaka milambo mar Kadesh Barnea. Bangʼe to ne ongʼado Hezron nyaka Adar kendo gomo kochiko Karka.

And it goeth out towards the ascent of the Scorpion, and passeth on to Sina: and ascendeth into Cadesbarne, and reacheth into Esron, going up to Addar, and compassing Carcaa.

4 Bangʼe ne okalo nyaka Azmon mi ochopo nyaka Wadi manie piny Misri kendo ochopo nyaka e dho Nam Mediterania. Ma e giko tongʼne ma yo milambo.

And from thence passing along into Asemona, and reaching the torrent of Egypt: and the bounds thereof shall be the great sea, this shall be the limit of the south coast.

5 Tongʼ-gi ma yo wuok chiengʼ nochakore Nam Chumbi modhi nyaka dho aora Jordan. Tongʼ-gi ma yo nyandwat nochakore kama aora Jordan donjogo e nam maduongʼ,

But on the east side the beginning shall be the most salt sea even to the end of the Jordan: and towards the north, from the bay of the sea unto the same river Jordan.

6 modhi malo nyaka Beth Hogla kendo odhi nyime yo nyandwat mar Beth Araba nyaka e kite mag Bohan ma wuod Reuben.

And the border goeth up into Beth-Hagla, and passeth by the north into Beth-Araba: going up to the stone of Boen the son of Ruben.

7 Tongʼno nodhi nyaka Debir koa e Holo mar Akor mi ogomo kochiko nyandwat nyaka Gilgal, mangʼiyore gi Pass mar Adumim mantiere yo milambo mar holono. Nodhi nyime koluwo dho aora mar En Shemesh mochopo nyaka En Rogel.

And reaching as far as the borders of Debara from the valley of Achor, and so northward looking towards Galgal, which is opposite to the ascent of Adommin, on the south side of the torrent: and the border passeth the waters that are called the fountain of the sun: and the goings out thereof shall be at the fountain Rogel.

8 Bangʼe noluwo Holo mar Ben Hinom, kochomo pewe ma milambo mar dala maduongʼ mar jo-Jebus (tiende ni, Jerusalem). Koa kanyo noidho nyaka ewi got man yo podho chiengʼ mar Holo mar Hinom e giko mar Holo mar Refaim mantiere yo nyandwat.

And it goeth up by the valley of the son of Ennom on the side of the Jebusite towards the south, the same is Jerusalem: and thence ascending to the top of the mountain, which is over against Geennom to the west in the end of the valley of Raphaim, northward.

9 Koa ewi got, tongʼno nochiko yo thidhna mag pige mag Neftoa, mowuok koa e mier matindo mag Got Efron kendo modhi nyaka Baala (tiende ni, Kiriath Jearim).

And it passeth on from the top of the mountain to the fountain of the water of Nephtoa: and reacheth to the towns of mount Ephron: and it bendeth towards Baala, which is Cariathiarim, that is to say, the city of the woods.

10 Bangʼe tongʼno nogomo kochiko yo podho chiengʼ chakre Baala nyaka Got Seir, koluwo yo nyandwat mar pewe mag Got Jearim (tiende ni, Kesalon), modhi nyime nyaka Beth Shemesh kendo ongʼado nyaka Timna.

And it compasseth from Baala westward unto mount Seir: and passeth by the side of mount Jarim to the north into Cheslon: and goeth down into Bethsames, and passeth into Thamna.

11 Nodhi nyaka yo nyandwat manie pewe mar Ekron kendo ogomo kochiko Shikeron, mi okalo nyaka Got Baala kendo ochopo Jabnel. Tongʼno nochopo nyaka e nam.

And it reacheth northward to a part of Accaron at the side: and bendeth to Sechrona, and passeth mount Baala: and cometh into Jebneel, and is bounded westward with the great sea.

12 Tongʼ ma yo podho chiengʼ nochopo nyaka e dho Nam Maduongʼ. Magi e tongʼ mar jo-Juda kaluwore gi anywolagi.

These are the borders round about of the children of Juda in their kindreds.

13 Kaluwore gi chik mane Jehova Nyasaye omiyo Joshua, nomiyo Kaleb wuod Jefune bath piny Juda miluongo ni, Kiriath Arba, ma tiende ni, Hebron. (Arba ne en kwar Anak.)

But to Caleb the son of Jephone he gave a portion in the midst of the children of Juda, as the Lord had commanded him: Cariath-Arbe the father of Enac. which is Hebron.

14 Kochakore Hebron, Kaleb noriembo jo-Anak adek, ma gin Sheshai, Ahiman kod Talmai ma gin nyikwa Anak.

And Caleb destroyed out of it the three sons of Ehac, Sesai and Ahiman. and Tholmai of the race of Enac.

15 Koa kanyo nodhi momonjo joma odak Debir (machon ne iluongo ni Kiriath Sefa).

And going up from thence he came to the inhabitants of Dabir, which before was called Cariath-Sepher, that is to say, the city of letters.

16 To Kaleb nowacho niya, “Anachiw nyara Aksa mondo okendi gi ngʼatno manoked ma kaw Kiriath Sefa.”

And Caleb said: He that shall smite Cariath-Sepher, and take it, I will give him Axa my daughter to wife.

17 Othniel wuod Kenaz, ma owadgi Kaleb noloyo pinyno, omiyo Kaleb nomiye nyare Aksa mondo okendi.

And Othoniel the son of Cenez, the younger brother of Caleb, took it: and he gave him Axa his daughter to wife.

18 Chiengʼ moro achiel kane obiro ir Othniel, nojiwe mondo okwa wuon mare puodho. Kane olor oa e pundane, Kaleb nopenje niya, “En angʼo midwaro ni mondo atimni?”

And as they were going together, she was moved by her husband to ask a field of her father, and she sighed as she sat on her ass. And Caleb said to her: What aileth thee?

19 Nodwoko niya, “Timna ngʼwono makende. Nimar isemiya puodho man Negev, miya bende thidhna mar pi.” Omiyo Kaleb nomiye thidhna ma malo kod mamwalo.

But she answered: Give me a blessing: thou hast given me a southern and dry land, give me also a land that is watered. And Caleb gave her the upper and the nether watery ground.

20 Ma e girkeni mar dhood Juda, kaluwore gi anywolagi.
