Joshua 15
1 Now the allotment for the clans of the tribe of Judah extended to the border of Edom, to the Wilderness of Zin at the extreme southern boundary:
Judahnaw ni cungpam a khoe awh teh, a miphun lahoi râw a coe e talai teh, Mon dawkvah Edom khori totouh, Teman ram a pout na koehoi, Zin kahrawng totouh a pha.
2 Their southern border started at the bay on the southern tip of the Salt Sea,
Akalae khori teh, Sodom tuipui dawk hoi akalah hoi a tâco teh,
3 proceeded south of the Ascent of Akrabbim, continued on to Zin, went over to the south of Kadesh-barnea, ran past Hezron up to Addar, and curved toward Karka.
akalah kamlang e a teng, Akrabbim monrui lah a cei teh, Zin kho totouh a pha. Hahoi akalah kamlang e a teng Kadeshbernea, Hezron, Addar, Karh,
4 It proceeded to Azmon, joined the Brook of Egypt, and ended at the Sea. This was their southern border.
Azmon kho koehoi Izip palang koe tuipui dawk a kâcu.
5 The eastern border was the Salt Sea as far as the mouth of the Jordan. The northern border started from the bay of the sea at the mouth of the Jordan,
Kanîtholah Sodom tuipui teh Jordan palang cum totouh kanîtholah kâkapek e lah ao. Atunglah khori teh, Jordan tui dawk a bo teh Sodom tuipui hoi a tâco teh,
6 went up to Beth-hoglah, proceeded north of Beth-arabah, and went up to the Stone of Bohan son of Reuben.
Bethhoglah kho koe lahoi Bethrabah kho atunglah a cei teh, Reuben e ca Bohan e talung koe lah a pha.
7 Then the border went up to Debir from the Valley of Achor, turning north to Gilgal, which faces the Ascent of Adummim south of the ravine. It continued along the waters of En-shemesh and came out at En-rogel.
Akhor tanghling atunglah hoi tâco teh, Debir kho koe lah palang e akalah Adummin monrui dawk kaawm e Gilgal kho dawk a pha hoi Enshemesh tuipui Enrogel kho e lam koe lah,
8 From there the border went up the Valley of Hinnom along the southern slope of the Jebusites (that is, Jerusalem) and ascended to the top of the hill that faces the Valley of Hinnom on the west, at the northern end of the Valley of Rephaim.
Hinnom capa e tanghling teng Jerusalem khopui lah ao teh, Jebusit e hmuen mon e teng vah a cei teh, Hinnom tanghling kanîloumlah, Raphaim tanghling atunglah kaawm e mon koe lah a luen.
9 From the hilltop the border curved to the spring of the Waters of Nephtoah, proceeded to the cities of Mount Ephron, and then bent around toward Baalah (that is, Kiriath-jearim).
Hote monsom hoi bout a kum teh Nephtoah tuiphuek koe a cei teh, Ephron mon kâkuen e khonaw koe lah, Kiriath Jearim, Baalah kho koe lah,
10 The border curled westward from Baalah to Mount Seir, ran along the northern slope of Mount Jearim (that is, Chesalon), went down to Beth-shemesh, and crossed to Timnah.
Baalah kho kanîloumlah a cei teh, Seir mon koe lah, Cheasalon mon tie Jearim mon, atunglah ka cet niteh, Bethshemesh, Timnah kho koe lah.
11 Then it went out to the northern slope of Ekron, curved toward Shikkeron, proceeded to Mount Baalah, went on to Jabneel, and ended at the Sea.
Ekron kho tung lahoi ka cet niteh, Shikkeron kho koe lah, Baalah mon koe lah, Jabneel kho koe a pha teh, tuipui dawk a pout.
12 And the western border was the coastline of the Great Sea. These are the boundaries around the clans of the descendants of Judah.
Kanîloumlah tuipui kalen hoi tuipui tengpam teh, kanîloumlae khori lah ao. Hetnaw teh, Judah miphunnaw a miphun lahoi e ramri lah ao.
13 According to the LORD’s command to him, Joshua gave Caleb son of Jephunneh a portion among the sons of Judah—Kiriath-arba, that is, Hebron. (Arba was the forefather of Anak.)
BAWIPA Cathut ni lawk a thui e patetlah, Joshua ni Judah miphun dawkvah, Jephunneh e capa Kaleb hanelah, Hebron kho tie hah Anakim na pa e kho hah a hruek pouh.
14 And Caleb drove out from there the three sons of Anak—the descendants of Sheshai, Ahiman, and Talmai, the children of Anak.
Hote kho dawk hoi Kaleb ni, Anakim e capa kathum touh, Sheshai, Ahiman, Talmai naw hah a pâlei hnukkhu,
15 From there he marched against the inhabitants of Debir (formerly known as Kiriath-sepher).
Kiriath-sepher a min karuem lah Debir kho taminaw aonae koe bout a cei teh,
16 And Caleb said, “To the man who strikes down Kiriath-sepher and captures it, I will give my daughter Acsah in marriage.”
Kiriath-sepher kho hah ka tuk e tami teh, kai ni ka canu Aksah ka poe han ati teh,
17 So Othniel son of Caleb’s brother Kenaz captured the city, and Caleb gave his daughter Acsah to him in marriage.
Kaleb e nawngha Kanaz e capa Othniel ni hote kho hah a tuk, Kaleb ni a canu Aksah hah ahni hane yu lah a poe.
18 One day Acsah came to Othniel and urged him to ask her father for a field. When she got off her donkey, Caleb asked her, “What do you desire?”
Hote napui ni kahlawng a cei nah law buet touh a na pa koe hei hanelah a vâ hoi a kâpan hnukkhu la dawk hoi a kum. A na pa Kaleb ni bangmaw na panki e kaawm telah a pacei.
19 “Give me a blessing,” she answered. “Since you have given me land in the Negev, give me springs of water as well.” So Caleb gave her both the upper and lower springs.
A canu ni yawhawi poe sak han ka ngai. Nang ni akalah kaawm e hmuen pueng na poe toe. Tuiphuek kaawm e naw hai na poe ei titeh a hei e patetlah, a na pa ni atunglah kaawm e tuiphuek, akalah kaawm e tuiphueknaw hai a poe sin.
20 This is the inheritance of the clans of the tribe of Judah.
