< Joshua 15 >

1 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.
Eteni ya mabele ya bato ya libota ya Yuda, kolanda bituka na bango, ezalaki na ngambo ya sude, wuta na bandelo ya Edomi kino na esobe ya Tsini, na suka penza ya sude.
2 Its beginning was from the summit of the very salty sea, and from its bay, which looks toward the south.
Mondelo na yango ya sude ebandaki na suka ya ebale monene ya Barozo, longwa na eteni ya mabele oyo ekota kati na ebale monene oyo etalana na Negevi,
3 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.
emataki kino na ngambo ya sude ya Akarabimi mpe elekaki na Tsini, sima emataki na ngambo ya sude ya Kadeshi-Barinea mpe ekitaki na Etsironi; emataki na ngambo ya Adari mpe ebalukaki na ngambo ya Karika.
4 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.
Elekaki na Atsimoni, ekendeki kotutana na moluka ya Ejipito mpe esukaki na Ebale monene. Yango nde ezali mondelo na bango na ngambo ya sude.
5 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.
Na ngambo ya este, mondelo ezalaki ebale monene ya Barozo kino na suka ya Yordani. Na ngambo ya nor, ezalaki longwa na eteni ya mabele oyo ekota kati na ebale kino na suka ya Yordani.
6 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.
Mondelo emataki na Beti-Ogila, elekaki na ngambo ya nor ya Beti-Araba mpe emataki kino na Libanga ya Boani, mwana mobali ya Ribeni.
7 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.
Mondelo yango emataki kino na Debiri, longwa na Lubwaku ya Akori, mpe ebalukaki na ngambo ya nor kino na Giligali oyo etalana na nzela oyo emata na Adumimi, na ngambo ya sude ya moluka. Elekaki pene ya mayi ya Eyini-Shemeshi mpe ekendeki kosuka na Eyini-Rogeli.
8 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.
Bongo mondelo yango emataki na nzela ya Lubwaku ya Beni-Inomi, pene ya mopanzi ya sude ya engumba ya bato ya Yebusi (oyo ezali Yelusalemi). Longwa na esika yango, emataki kino na songe ya ngomba oyo ezali na weste ya Lubwaku ya Inomi, na suka ya ngambo ya nor ya Lubwaku ya Refayimi.
9 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.
Longwa na songe ya ngomba, mondelo yango ekatisaki kino na etima ya mayi ya Nefitoa, ebimaki na bingumba ya ngomba Efroni mpe ekitaki na ngambo ya Baala (oyo ezali Kiriati-Yearimi).
10 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.
Longwa na Baala, mondelo yango ekatisaki na ngambo ya weste, pene ya ngomba Seiri; elekaki na mopanzi ya ngomba ya bazamba, na ngambo ya nor (oyo ezali ngomba Kesaloni); ekobaki kokita kino na Beti-Shemeshi mpe ekatisaki kino na Timina.
11 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.
Mondelo yango ekendeki na mopanzi ya ngambo ya nor ya Ekroni, ebalukaki na Shikeroni, elekaki pene ya ngomba Baala; ekendeki kino na Yabineyeli mpe esukaki na ebale monene.
12 These are the borders of the sons of Judah, in their families, on all sides.
Mondelo ya ngambo ya weste elekaki pembeni-pembeni ya ebale monene Mediterane. Yango nde ezalaki, na bangambo nyonso, eteni ya mabele ya bato ya libota ya Yuda kolanda bituka na bango.
13 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.
Kolanda mitindo oyo Yawe apesaki ye, Jozue apesaki Kalebi, mwana mobali ya Yefune, eteni ya mabele: Kiriati-Ariba (oyo ezali Ebron), kati na libota ya bato ya Yuda. (Ariba azalaki tata ya Anaki).
14 And Caleb destroyed from it the three sons of Anak, Sheshai, and Ahiman, and Talmai, of the stock of Anak.
Kalebi abenganaki, wuta na Ebron, bakitani misato ya Anaki: Sheshayi, Ayimani mpe Talimayi.
15 And ascending further from there, he came to the inhabitants of Debir, which before was called Kiriath-Sepher, that is, the City of Letters.
Longwa wana, akendeki kobundisa bavandi ya Debiri oyo kombo na yango ezalaki na kala « Kiriati-Seferi. »
16 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.”
Kalebi alobaki: « Nakopesa na libala Akisa, mwana na ngai ya mwasi, epai ya moto nyonso oyo akobundisa mpe akobotola Kiriati-Seferi. »
17 And Othniel, the son of Kenaz, the younger brother of Caleb, seized it. And he gave him Achsah, his daughter, as wife.
Otinieli, mwana mobali ya Kenazi, ndeko mobali ya Kalebi, abotolaki yango; boye Kalebi apesaki Akisa, mwana na ye ya mwasi, na libala epai ya Otinieli.
18 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?”
Nzokande, tango Akisa akomaki na ndako ya Otinieli, atindikaki ye ete asenga elanga epai ya Kalebi, tata na ye. Boye, tango Akisa akitaki wuta na ane na ye, Kalebi atunaki ye: — Olingi nini?
19 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.
Akisa azongisaki: — Salela ngai ngolu. Lokola opesaki ngai eteni ya mabele kati na Negevi, pesa ngai lisusu bitima. Boye, Kalebi apesaki ye bitima ya likolo mpe ya se.
20 This is the possession of the tribe of the sons of Judah, by their families.
Yango nde ezalaki eteni ya mabele oyo bato ya libota ya Yuda bazwaki lokola libula, kolanda mabota na bango.

63 But the sons of Judah were not able to destroy the Jebusite inhabitants of Jerusalem. And so the Jebusite lived with the sons of Judah in Jerusalem, even to the present day.
Bato ya libota ya Yuda bakokaki te kobengana bato ya Yebusi oyo bazalaki kovanda na Yelusalemi. Boye, kino na mokolo ya lelo, bato ya Yebusi bazali kovanda na Yelusalemi elongo na bato ya libota ya Yuda.
