Joshua 15
1 The land that was allotted to the tribe of Judah was divided among its clans. That land extended south along the border of the Edom region, as far as the Zin Desert.
Lupan acn se itukyang nu sin sou nukewa in sruf lal Judah pa ac akkalemyeyuk inge: Acn se inge tufoki som nu epang, fahla nwe sun yen mwesis Zin, su pa inge masrol nu Edom.
2 The southern border of the land that was allotted to the tribe of Judah started at the south end of the Dead Sea [and extended west].
Masrol nu eir fahla eir in Meoa Misa,
3 It extended south of Scorpion Pass to Zin [Desert], and from there west to a place south of Kadesh-Barnea, past Hezron [town], to Addar [town], and from there it turned [northwest] to Karka [town].
fahla nu eir in Innek In Utyak Nu Akrabbim lac nu Zin, ac fahla pacna nu eir in acn Kadesh Barnea, alukela Hezron ac utyak nu Addar, ac kuhfla nu Karka,
4 From there it continued to Azmon, and from there to the dry riverbed on the border of Egypt, and from there [west] to the [Mediterranean] Sea. That was the southern border.
ac fahla nu Azmon, ac ukwala infacl srisrik oan inmasrol nu Egypt nwe ke sun Meoa Mediterranean. Pa ingan saflaiyen masrol se inge, su masrol eir lun acn lal Judah.
5 The eastern border of the land of the tribe of Judah was the Dead Sea, and it extended [north] to [where the Jordan River ends at] the Dead Sea.
Ac masrol nu kutulap an pa Meoa Misa, utyak na nwe kapin Infacl Jordan. Masrol nu epang mutawauk insacn,
6 The northern border started where the Jordan River ends at the Dead Sea. It extended [north] to Beth-Hoglah [town], and from there it extended north of Beth-Arabah [town] to the [big] stone [set up by] Reuben’s son Bohan.
tutafla nu lucng nu Beth Hoglah, ac fahsr nu epang nu fin ngarngar su tu ngeti nu Infahlfal Jordan. Na utyak twe sun Eot lal Bohan (su wen natul Reuben),
7 From there the border continued west through Achor Valley to Debir [city]. From there it turned north to Gilgal [city]. Gilgal is north of the road that goes through Adummim Pass, on the south side of the valley. From Gilgal the border extended west to the springs at En-Shemesh, and from there to En-Rogel.
liki Infahlfal in Ongoiya utyak nu Debir, na kuhfla nu epang in Gilgal su oan tulanang Innek In Utyak Nu Adummim su oan eir nu infahlfal uh. Na fahla na nwe sun unon in kof se Enshemesh, ac fahla nu Enrogel,
8 From there it extended through Ben-Hinnom Valley, south of the city where the Jebus people-group lived. (That city is now named Jerusalem.) From there the border extended to the top of the hill on the west side of Hinnom Valley, at the northern end of the valley where the Repha [giants] lived.
ac utyak sasla Infahlfal Hinnom nu eir in sisken eol uh, su siti lun mwet Jebus pangpang Jerusalem oan we. Na masrol sac utyak pacna nu lucng nu fin tohktok layen roto ke Infahlfal Hinnom, safla layen epang ke Infahlfal Rephaim.
9 From there the border extended [northwest] to Nephtoah Spring, and from there to the cities near Ephron Mountain. From there the border extended [west] toward Baalah, which is now named Kiriath-Jearim.
Liki acn sacn sifilpa fahla na nwe ke unon in kof Nephtoah, ac fahla nu in siti uh apkuran nu ke eol Ephron, na kuhfla nu Baalah (ku Kiriath Jearim),
10 Then the border extended further west to Seir Mountain. Then it continued [southwest] along the north side of Jearim Mountain, which is also named Kesalon, to Beth-Shemesh [city]. From there it extended [northwest] past Timnah [city],
ac fahsr rauni acn Baalah nu roto ac fahla nu acn tohktok in Edom, sifil fahsr nu epang in eol Jearim (ku Chesalon), na tufokla nu Beth Shemesh ac nu Timnah.
11 to the hill north of Ekron [city]. From there it extended [west] to Shikkeron [town] and past Baalah Mountain to Jabneel [town], then [northwest] to the [Mediterranean] Sea.
Masrol uh fahla epang in Fineol Ekron, na forla fahsr nu Shikkeron, alukela Fineol Baalah, ac som nu Jamnia. Safla ke Meoa Mediterranean,
12 The western border of the land that was allotted to the tribe of Judah was the Mediterranean Sea. All the clans of Judah lived inside those borders.
su pa ingan masrol nu roto uh. Pa ingan masrol ma akkalemye lupan facl su mwet in sruf lal Judah elos muta we.
13 Yahweh commanded Joshua to give part of the land for the tribe of Judah to Caleb. So he gave to Caleb Kiriath-Arba [city], which is now named Hebron. (Arba was the ancestor of the Anak people-group.)
In oana ke LEUM GOD El tuh fahk nu sel Joshua, sie ipin facl sin Judah tuh itukyang nu sel Caleb, wen natul Jephunneh, in sruf lal Judah. El eis acn Hebron, siti sel Arba, papa tumal Anak.
14 Caleb forced the three clans of the Anak people-group to leave Hebron. Those were the Sheshai, Ahiman, and Talmai clans.
Ac Caleb el lusla tulik natul Anak liki siti sac (sou lulap lal Sheshai ac Ahiman ac Talmai.)
15 Then Caleb left there and went to fight against the people living in Debir [city], which was previously named Kiriath-Sepher.
Na el som liki acn sac, ac mweuni mwet muta in Debir (tuh pangpang siti se inge meet Kiriath Sepher).
16 Caleb said, “If someone attacks [the people in] Kiriath-Sepher and captures their city, I will give my daughter Acsah to him to be his wife.”
Caleb el fahk, “Nga ac fah eisalang Achsah, acn nutik, elan payuk sin mukul se ma ac ku in mweuni ac sruokya acn Kiriath Sepher.”
17 Othniel, the son of Caleb’s brother Kenaz, captured the city. So Caleb gave his daughter to him.
Othniel, wen natul Kenaz su ma lel Caleb, el sruokya siti sac. Na Caleb el eisalang Achsah, acn natul, tuh elan mutan kial Othniel.
18 When Caleb’s daughter married Othniel, she told him to ask her father to give her a field. Then Acsah went to talk with her father Caleb. As she got down from her donkey, Caleb asked her, “Do you want something?”
In len in marut laltal, Othniel el kwafe sel Achsah elan siyuk sie ipin acn sin papa tumal. Na ke Achsah el srola liki donkey natul, Caleb el siyuk sel lah mea el lungse.
19 Acsah replied, “Yes, I want you to do something for me. You have given me some land in the southern part of Canaan, [but there is no water there]. So please give me some [land that has] springs.” So Caleb gave her the upper and lower springs [near Hebron].
Na Achsah el topuk, “Nga lungse kutu acn ma oasr lufin kof we, mweyen acn ma kom ase nu sik acn na pao.” Na Caleb el sang nu sel unon in kof lucng ac ten.
