Joshua 15
1 This then was the lot of the tribe of the children of Iudah by their families: euen to the border of Edom and the wildernesse of Zin, Southward on the Southcoast.
Chigawo cha dzikolo chimene mabanja a fuko la Yuda analandira chinafika ku malire ndi Edomu mpaka ku chipululu cha Zini kummwera kwenikweni.
2 And their South border was the salt Sea coast, from the point that looketh Southward.
Malire awo a kummwera anayambira kummwera kwenikweni kwa Nyanja ya Mchere,
3 And it went out on the Southside towarde Maaleth-akrabbim, and went along to Zin, and ascended vp on the Southside vnto Kadesh-barnea, and went along to Hezron, and went vp to Adar, and fet a compasse to Karkaa.
kudutsa cha kummwera ku Akirabimu, nʼkupitirira mpaka ku Zini. Kuchokera pamenepo nʼkumapita cha kummwera kwa Kadesi Barinea, kudutsa Hezironi mpaka ku Adari ndi kutembenuka mpaka ku Karika.
4 From thence went it along to Azmon, and reached vnto the riuer of Egypt, and the end of that coast was on the Westside: this shall be your South coast.
Anapitirira mpaka ku Azimoni motsata mtsinje umene uli malire a Igupto mpaka ku nyanja. Awa ndiwo malire awo a kummwera.
5 Also the Eastborder shalbe the salt Sea, vnto the end of Iorden: and the border on the North quarter from the point of the Sea, and from the end of Iorden.
Malire a kummawa anali Nyanja Yakufa mpaka kumene Yorodani amathira mu Nyanja ya Mchere. Malire a kumpoto anayambira kumene Yorodani amathirira nyanjayo,
6 And this border goeth vp to Beth-hogla, and goeth along by ye Northside of Beth-arabah: so the border from thence goeth vp to the stone of Bohan the sonne of Reuben.
napitirira mpaka ku Beti-Hogila ndi kupitirira kumpoto mpaka ku Beti-Araba. Anapitirira mpaka anakafika ku Mwala wa Bohani.
7 Againe this border goeth vp to Debir from the valley of Achor, and Northwarde, turning toward Gilgal, that lyeth before the going vp to Adummim, which is on the Southside of the riuer: also this border goeth vp to the waters of En-shemesh, and endeth at En-rogel.
Ndipo malirewo anachokeranso ku chigwa cha Akori mpaka ku Debri, kuchokera ku chigwa cha Akori ndi kutembenukira kumpoto ku Giligala, dera limene linayangʼanana ndi msewu wa Adumimu kummwera kwa chigwa. Anapitirira mpaka ku madzi a ku Eni Semesi ndi kutulukira ku Eni Rogeli.
8 Then this border goeth vp to the valley of the sonne of Hinnom; on the Southside of the Iebusites: the same is Ierusalem. also this border goeth vp to the top of the mountaine that lyeth before the valley of Hinnom Westward, which is by the end of the valley of ye gyants Northward.
Ndipo anapitirira mpaka ku chigwa cha Hinomu mbali ya kummwera kwa mzinda wa Ayebusi (mzinda wa Yerusalemu). Kuchokera kumeneko anakwera mpaka pamwamba pa phiri kumadzulo kwa chigwa cha Hinomu cha kumpoto kwenikweni kwa chigwa cha Refaimu.
9 So this border compasseth from the top of the mountaine vnto the fountaine of the water of Nephtoah, and goeth out to the cities of mount Ephron: and this border draweth to Baalah, which is Kiriath-iearim.
Ndipo anachokeranso pamwamba pa phiri, kukafika mpaka ku akasupe a ku Nepitowa, nadzatulukira ku mizinda ya phiri la Efroni, ndi kutsikira ku Baalahi (ndiye Kiriati Yearimu).
10 Then this border compasseth from Baalah Westward vnto mount Seir, and goeth along vnto the side of mount Iearim, which is Chesalon on the Northside: so it commeth downe to Bethshemesh, and goeth to Timnah.
Kuchokera kumeneko anazungulira cha kumadzulo ku Baalahi mpaka ku phiri la Seiri. Anapitirira cha kumpoto kutsata phiri la Yearimu (lomwe ndi Kesaloni). Anapitirirabe kutsika ku Beti Semesi ndi kuwolokera ku Timna.
11 Also this border goeth out vnto the side of Ekron Northwarde: and this border draweth to Shicron, and goeth along to mount Baalah, and stretcheth vnto Iabneel: and the endes of this coast are to the Sea.
Malirewo anapitirira kumatsitso a mapiri chakumpoto kwa Ekroni, ndi kukhotera ku Sikeroni. Malirewo anadutsa phiri la Baalahi ndi kufika ku Yabineeli. Malirewo anathera ku nyanja.
12 And the Westborder is to the great Sea: so this border shalbe the bounds of the children of Iudah round about, according to their families.
Malire a mbali ya kumadzulo anali Nyanja Yayikulu. Awa ndi malire ozungulira malo amene anapatsidwa kwa mabanja a fuko la Yuda.
13 And vnto Caleb the sonne of Iephunneh did Ioshua giue a part among the children of Iudah, as the Lord commanded him, euen Kiriath-arba of the father of Anak, which is Hebron.
Potsata lamulo la Yehova, Yoswa anapereka kwa Kalebe mwana wa Yefune gawo lina la dziko la Yuda dera la Kiriati Ariba, limene ndi Hebroni. (Ariba anali gogo wa Aanaki).
14 And Caleb droue thence three sonnes of Anak, Sheshai, and Ahiman, and Talmai, the sonnes of Anak.
Kuchokera ku Hebroni, Kalebe anathamangitsamo mafuko a Aanaki awa: Sesai, Ahimani ndi Talimai, zidzukulu za Aanaki.
15 And he went vp thence to the inhabitants of Debir: and the name of Debir before time was Kiriath-sepher.
Kuchokera kumeneko, Kalebe anakathira nkhondo anthu amene ankakhala ku Debri (mzindawu poyamba unkatchedwa Kiriati Seferi).
16 Then Caleb sayd, He that smiteth Kiriath-sepher, and taketh it, euen to him wil I giue Achsah my daughter to wife.
Tsono Kalebe anati, “Munthu amene angathire nkhondo mzinda wa Kiriati Seferi ndi kuwulanda, ndidzamupatsa mwana wanga Akisa kuti akhale mkazi wake.”
17 And Othniel, the sonne of Kenaz, the brother of Caleb tooke it: and he gaue him Achsah his daughter to wife.
Otanieli, mwana wa mʼbale wa Kalebe, Kenazi, ndiye anawulanda. Choncho Kalebe anamupatsa mwana wake Akisa kuti akhale mkazi wake.
18 And as she went in to him, she moued him, to aske of her father a fielde: and she lighted off her asse, and Caleb sayd vnto her, What wilt thou?
Tsiku lina atafika Akisayo, Otanieli anamuwumiriza mkazi wakeyo kuti apemphe munda kwa Kalebe abambo ake. Pamene Akisa anatsika pa bulu wake, Kalebe anamufunsa kuti, “Kodi ukufuna ndikuchitire chiyani.”
19 Then she answered, Giue me a blessing: for thou hast giuen mee the South countrey: giue me also springs of water. And hee gaue her the springs aboue and the springs beneath.
Iye anayankha kuti “Mundikomere mtima. Popeza mwandipatsa ku Negevi, kumalo kumene kulibe madzi, mundipatsenso akasupe amadzi.” Choncho Kalebe anamupatsa akasupe a kumtunda ndi a kumunsi.
