Joshua 15
1 And the lot of the tribe of the children of Judah according to their families was: to the border of Edom, the wilderness of Zin, southward, in the extreme south.
Asase a wɔde maa mmusua a wobom yɛ Yuda abusuakuw no koduu Edom hye so wɔ anafo fam, na Sin sare so na ɛkɔpem.
2 And their southern border was from the end of the salt sea, from the tongue that turns southward;
Anafo fam hye no fitii ase wɔ Nkyene Po no awiei a ɛwɔ anafo fam,
3 and it went out south of the ascent of Akrabbim, and passed on to Zin, and went up on the south of Kadesh-barnea, and passed to Hezron, and went up toward Addar, and turned toward Karkaah,
sen faa Akrabbim kosii Sin sare so. Ɛtoaa so kɔɔ Kades-Barnea anafo fam kosii Hesron. Afei ɛkɔɔ soro kosii Adar na ɛpono kɔɔ Karka.
4 and passed on to Azmon, and went out by the torrent of Egypt; and the border ended at the sea. That shall be your border southward.
Etwaa mu ha kɔɔ Asmon koduu Misraim asuwa no ho, na ɛfaa ho ara kowiee wɔ Po Kɛse no mu. Eyi ne wɔn anafo fam hye.
5 — And the eastern border was the salt sea as far as the end of the Jordan. — And the border on the north side was from the tongue of the salt sea, at the end of the Jordan;
Apuei fam hye no fi Nkyene Po no kodu Asubɔnten Yordan ano. Atifi fam hye no fi beae a Asubɔnten Yordan bɔ Nkyene Po no mu,
6 and the border went up toward Beth-hoglah, and passed north of Beth-Arabah; and the border went up to the stone of Bohan, the son of Reuben;
twa mu kɔ Bet-Hogla, na afei akɔ Bet-Araba atifi fam, akɔka Bohan bo (Na Bohan yɛ Ruben babarima) no ho.
7 and the border went up toward Debir from the valley of Achor, and turned northward to Gilgal, which is opposite to the ascent of Adummim, which is on the south side of the torrent; and the border passed to the waters of En-shemesh, and ended at En-rogel;
Efi hɔ a, ɛkɔfa Akɔr bon no mu kɔka Debir, na ɛdan wɔ atifi fam kyerɛ Gilgal, a etwa mu fi Adumim nsian mu wɔ anafo fam wɔ obon no nkyɛn mu. Efi hɔ a, ɔhye no sen kosi En-Semes nsu no ano, na akɔpem En-Rogel.
8 and the border went up to the valley of the son of Hinnom, toward the south side of the Jebusite, that is, Jerusalem; and the border went up to the top of the mountain that is before the valley of Hinnom westward, which is at the end of the valley of Rephaim northward;
Afei, ɔhye no fa Hinom babarima bon no mu, kɔfa Yebusifo anafo nsian so, nea Yerusalem kuropɔn no da. Afei ɛkɔ atɔe fam wɔ bepɔw no apampam, toa so kɔ Hinom bon no so kosi Refaim bon ano wɔ atifi fam.
9 and the border reached along from the top of the mountain toward the spring of the waters of Nephtoah, and went out toward the cities of mount Ephron; and the border reached along to Baalah, that is, Kirjath-jearim;
Efi hɔ a, ɔhye no toa so kɔfa bepɔw no apampam kɔ Neftoa asuti no nsu ho, fi hɔ akɔ nkurow a ɛdeda Efron bepɔw so no. Na ebukaw kɔ Baala (a ɛyɛ Kiriat-Yearim.)
10 and the border turned from Baalah westwards toward mount Seir, and passed toward the side of Har-jearim, that is, Chesalon, northwards, and went down to Beth-shemesh, and passed Timnah.
Ɔhye no twa fa Baala ho wɔ atɔe fam kosi bepɔw Seir so, ɛkɔ ara kosi Kesalon kurom wɔ bepɔw Yearim atifi nsian so, na akɔ fam akosi Bet-Semes ne Timna.
11 And the border went out to the side of Ekron northwards, and the border reached along toward Shicron, and passed mount Baalah, and went toward Jabneel; and the border ended at the sea.
Ɔhye no kɔɔ ara kosii bepɔw no nsian a ɛwɔ Ekron atifi fam no, dan kyerɛɛ Sikron, faa hɔ kɔɔ Baala bepɔw no de koduu Yabneel. Ɔhye no kɔpem Po Kɛse no.
12 — And the west border is the great sea and [its] coast. This is the border of the children of Judah round about, according to their families.
Na atɔe fam hye no nso ne Ntam Po no mpoano. Eyinom ne mmusua a wɔbɔ mu yɛ Yuda mmusuakuw no ahye.
13 And to Caleb the son of Jephunneh he gave a portion among the children of Judah according to the commandment of Jehovah to Joshua, the city of Arba, the father of Anak, that is, Hebron.
Awurade hyɛɛ Yosua se ɔmfa Yuda asase no bi mma Yefune babarima Kaleb. Enti, wɔde kuropɔn Arba (a ɛyɛ Hebron) a wɔde too Anak tete agya no maa no.
14 And thence Caleb dispossessed the three sons of Anak, Sheshai and Ahiman and Talmai, who were born of Anak.
Na Kaleb tuu Sesai, Ahiman ne Talmai a wɔyɛ Anak asefo no fii hɔ.
15 And from there he went up against the inhabitants of Debir; now the name of Debir before was Kirjath-sepher.
Afei, ɔko tiaa nnipa a na wɔte kurow Debir (a kan no na wɔfrɛ no Kiriat-Sefer) no.
16 And Caleb said, He that smites Kirjath-sepher and takes it, to him will I give Achsah my daughter as wife.
Kaleb kae se, “Mede me babea Aksa bɛma obi a ɔbɛtow ahyɛ Kiriat-Sefer kurow no so na wadi so no aware.”
17 And Othniel the son of Kenaz, the brother of Caleb, took it; and he gave him Achsah his daughter as wife.
Ɛnna Kaleb nua Kenas babarima Otniel dii so nti, Aksa bɛyɛɛ Otniel yere.
18 And it came to pass as she came, that she urged him to ask of her father a field; and she sprang down from the ass. And Caleb said to her, What wouldest thou?
Aksa waree Otniel no, ɔhyɛɛ no sɛ ommisa nʼagya Kaleb na ɔmfa asase no bi nka ho. Aksa fii nʼafurum so sii fam no, Kaleb bisaa no se, “Dɛn na menyɛ mma wo?”
19 And she said, Give me a blessing; for thou hast given me a southern land; give me also springs of water. Then he gave her the upper springs and the lower springs.
Ɔka kyerɛɛ no se, “Yɛ me adom sononko. Woayɛ adom, ama me Asase wɔ Negeb; ma me nsuwansuwa asase nso.” Enti Kaleb maa no ɔsoro ne fam nsuwansuwa asase.
20 This is the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Judah according to their families.
