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.

So then the boundary of the tribe of the sons of Judah, by their families, —reached unto the boundary of Edom, the desert of Zin southward, on the extreme south;

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

so their south boundary beginneth at the end of the Salt Sea, —from the bay that turneth 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 goeth forth on the south of the cliffs of Akrabbim, and crosseth over to Zin, and goeth up on the south of Kadesh-barnea, —and passeth over by Hezron, and goeth up to Addar, and turneth round to Karka;

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 passeth over to Azmon, and goeth forth at the ravine of Egypt, and so the extensions of the boundary are to the sea. This, shall be your south boundary.

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,

And, a boundary eastward, is the Salt Sea, as far as the end of the Jordan. And, the boundary on the north side, is from the bay of the sea, from the end of the 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 boundary goeth up Beth-hoglah, and passeth over, on the north, by Beth-arabah, —and the boundary goeth up by the Stone of Bohan, son of Reuben;

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 the boundary goeth up towards Debir, out of the vale of Achor, then northward, turning unto Gilgal, which is over against the ascent of Adummim, which is on the south side of the ravine, —then the boundary passeth over unto the waters of En-shemesh, and so the extensions thereof are unto En-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.

then ascendeth the boundary by the valley of the son of Hinnom, to the side of the Jebusite, on the south, the same, is Jerusalem, —and the boundary goeth up unto the top of the mountain which faceth the valley of Hinnom, to the west, which is at the end of the Vale of Giants, northwards;

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 the boundary turneth round, from the top of the mountain, unto the fountain of the waters of Nephtoah, and goeth out unto the cities of Mount Ephron, —then the boundary turneth round to Baalah, the same, is Kiriath-jearim;

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.

then the boundary goeth round from Baalah westward, unto Mount Seir, and passeth over unto the slope of Mount Yearim, on the north, the same, is Chesalon, —and descendeth Bethshemesh, and passeth over Timnah;

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.

then the boundary goeth forth unto the side of Ekron, northward, then the boundary turneth round towards Shikkeron, and crosseth over Mount Baalah, and goeth out at Jabneel, —and the extensions of the boundary are to the sea.

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

And, as a west boundary, are the great sea and coast. This, is the boundary of the sons of Judah, round about, by their families.

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.)

And, to Caleb, son of Jephunneh, gave he a portion, in the midst of the sons of Judah, at the bidding of Yahweh, by Joshua, —even the City of Arba, father of Anak, the same, is Hebron.

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

And Caleb dispossessed from thence, the three sons of Anak, —Sheshai, and Ahiman, and Talmai, the descendants of Anak.

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

And he went up from thence, against the inhabitants of Debir, —now, the name of Debir, formerly, was Kiriath-sepher.

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

Then said Caleb, He that smiteth Kiriath-sepher, and captureth it, I will give unto him Achsah, my daughter, to wife.

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

And Othniel son of Kenaz, brother of Caleb, captured it, —so he gave unto him Achsah, 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 it came to pass, when she came, that she moved him to ask of her father a field, and, when she alighted from off the ass, Caleb said unto 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.

And she said—Give me a present, for, dry land, hast thou given me, therefore must thou give me, pools of water. So he gave her upper pools and lower pools.

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