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.
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 South border was the salt Sea coast, from the point that looketh Southward.
Anafo fam hye no fitii ase wɔ Nkyene Po no awiei a ɛwɔ anafo fam,
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.
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 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.
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 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.
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 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.
twa mu kɔ Bet-Hogla, na afei akɔ Bet-Araba atifi fam, akɔka Bohan bo (Na Bohan yɛ Ruben babarima) no ho.
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.
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 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.
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 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.
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 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.
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 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.
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 Westborder is to the great Sea: so this border shalbe the bounds of the children of Iudah 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 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.
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 Caleb droue thence three sonnes of Anak, Sheshai, and Ahiman, and Talmai, the sonnes of Anak.
Na Kaleb tuu Sesai, Ahiman ne Talmai a wɔyɛ Anak asefo no fii hɔ.
15 And he went vp thence to the inhabitants of Debir: and the name of Debir before time was Kiriath-sepher.
Afei, ɔko tiaa nnipa a na wɔte kurow Debir (a kan no na wɔfrɛ no Kiriat-Sefer) no.
16 Then Caleb sayd, He that smiteth Kiriath-sepher, and taketh it, euen to him wil I giue Achsah my daughter to 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 sonne of Kenaz, the brother of Caleb tooke it: and he gaue him Achsah his daughter to wife.
Ɛnna Kaleb nua Kenas babarima Otniel dii so nti, Aksa bɛyɛɛ Otniel yere.
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?
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 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.
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 shalbe the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Iudah according to their families.
Eyi ne mmusua a wɔbɔ mu yɛ Yuda abusuakuw no agyapade.
