Joshua 15
1 The assignment of land for the tribe of the people of Judah, clan by clan, extended south to the border of Edom, with the wilderness of Zin being the farthest point to the south.
Anyigba si wotsɔ na Yuda ƒe viwo la ƒe anyigbemeliƒo dze egɔme tso Edom ƒe dzigbemeliƒo dzi, tso Zin gbegbe la, eye wòtɔ Negeb ƒe dzieheliƒo.
2 Their border on the south ran from the end of the Salt Sea, from the bay that faces to the south.
Dzieheliƒo sia tso Dzeƒu alo Ƒukuku la to le anyigbeme
3 Their boundary next went out to the south of the hill of Akrabbim and passed along to Zin, and went up south of Kadesh Barnea, along by Hezron, and up to Addar, where it turned about to Karka.
ɖo ta dziehe tso Akrabim to dzi mɔ la gbɔ heyi Zin. Eɖo ta dziehe to Kades Barnea, to Hezron heyi Adar, trɔ ɖo ta Karka,
4 It passed along to Azmon, went by the brook of Egypt, and came to its end at the sea. This was their south boundary.
eye wòyi Azmon. Eto tɔʋu si le Egipte ƒe liƒo dzi la ŋu heyi ɖatɔ Domeƒu la. Esia nye Yuda ƒe anyigbemeliƒo.
5 The eastern boundary was the Salt Sea, at the mouth of the Jordan. The border on the north ran from the bay of the sea at the mouth of the Jordan.
Ɣedzeƒeliƒo la tso Dzeƒu la ŋu yi Yɔdan tɔsisi la nu. Anyigbemeliƒo la dze egɔme tso afi si Yɔdan tɔsisi la de nu Dzeƒu la me le,
6 It went up to Beth Hoglah and passed along north of Beth Arabah. Then it went up to the Stone of Bohan the son of Reuben.
hetso eme yi Bet Hogla, Bet Araba ƒe anyiehe yi Bohan, Ruben ƒe vi ƒe kpe la gbɔ.
7 Then the border went up to Debir from the Valley of Achor, and so northward, turning toward Gilgal, which is opposite the hill of Adummim, which is on the south side of the valley. Then the border passed along to the springs of En Shemesh and went to En Rogel.
Tso afi ma la, liƒo la to Akɔr ƒe balime yi Debir, eye wòtrɔ yi anyiehe kple ɣetoɖoƒe dome ɖo ta Gilgal le Adumim towo ƒe akpa kemɛ dzi, le balime la ƒe dziehe lɔƒo. Egayi En Semes ƒe tsi dzidziwo gbɔ heyi En Rogel.
8 Then the border went up the Valley of Ben Hinnom to the south side of the Jebusite city (that is, Jerusalem). Then it went up to the top of the hill that lies over the Valley of Hinnom, on the west, which is at the northern end of the Valley of Rephaim.
Liƒo la to Ben Hinom ƒe Balime azɔ, to Yebus, afi si wotso Yerusalem ɖo ƒe dziehe lɔƒo, to ɣetoɖoƒe yi toawo dzi le Ben Hinom ƒe Balime tame heyi ɖase ɖe Refaim ƒe balime ƒe seƒe le dzigbeme.
9 Then the border extended from the top of the hills to the spring of Nephtoah, and went out from there to the cities of Mount Ephron. Then the border bends around to Baalah (the same as Kiriath Jearim).
Egatso to la tame heyi Nef to la ƒe tsi dzidziwo gbɔ heyi du siwo le Efrɔn to dzi la gbɔ hafi trɔ ɖo ta dzigbeme, ƒo xlã Baala (si wogayɔna be Kiriat Yearim)
10 Then the border circled around west of Baalah to Mount Seir, and passed along to the side of Mount Jearim on the north (the same as Kesalon), went down to Beth Shemesh, and crossed over to Timnah.
ɖo ta Edom ƒe to Seir gbɔ, yi Yearim to alo Kesalon ƒe dzigbeme, yi Bet Semes heto Timna ŋu.
11 The border went out beside the northern hill of Ekron, and then it bends around to Shikkeron and passed along to Mount Baalah, from there it went to Jabneel. The border ended at the sea.
Liƒo la yi togbɛ siwo le Ekron ƒe dzigbeme la gbɔ, trɔ ɖo ta Sikeron to, Baala to la ŋu, yi Yabneel hewu nu ɖe Domeƒu la to.
12 The western boundary was the Great Sea and its coastline. This is the border around the tribe of Judah, clan by clan.
Ke ɣetoɖoƒeliƒo enye ƒu gã la kple eŋu nyigbawo. Esia nye Yudaviwo ƒe liƒo godoo va kpe le woƒe ƒomeawo nu.
13 In keeping with the commandment of Yahweh to Joshua, Joshua gave Caleb son of Jephunneh an assignment of land among the tribe of Judah, Kiriath Arba, that is, Hebron (Arba was the father of Anak).
Yehowa gblɔ na Yosua be wòatsɔ Yuda ƒe anyigba ƒe akpa aɖe na Kaleb, Yefune ƒe vi la. Ale wotsɔ Arba du si wogayɔna be Hebron, du si wotsɔ Anak fofo ƒe ŋkɔ na la na Kaleb.
14 Caleb drove out from there the three sons of Anak: Sheshai, Ahiman and Talmai, descendants of Anak.
Esia ta Kaleb nya Anak ƒe vi etɔ̃awo, Talmai, Sesai kple Ahiman ƒe dzidzimeviwo le anyigba la dzi,
15 He went up from there against the inhabitants of Debir (Debir used to be called Kiriath Sepher).
eye wòwɔ aʋa kple ame siwo nɔ Debir, du si woyɔna tsã be Kiriat Sefer la me.
16 Caleb said, “The man who attacks Kiriath Sepher and captures it, to him I will give Aksah my daughter as a wife.”
Kaleb gblɔ be yeatsɔ ye vinyɔnu Aksa na ŋutsu si awɔ aʋa aɖu Kiriat Sefer dua dzi.
17 When Othniel son of Kenaz, Caleb's brother, captured it, Caleb gave him Aksah his daughter as a wife.
Otniel, Kenaz ƒe vi, ame si nye Kaleb ƒe tɔɖiyɔvi la, ɖu dua dzi, ale Kaleb tsɔ via nyɔnu Aksa na Otniel wozu srɔ̃a.
18 Soon after that, Aksah came to Othniel and she urged him to ask her father for a field. When she got off her donkey, Caleb said to her, “What do you want?”
Esi Otniel kple Ahsa dze mɔ yina woƒe nɔƒe la, Ahsa gblɔ na Otniel be yeabia anyigba ye fofo kpe ɖe esi wòna ye xoxo la ŋu. Ale wòɖi le eƒe tedzi dzi be yeaƒo nu kple ye fofo, Kaleb, tso eŋuti. Kaleb biae be, “Nu kae hiã wò?”
19 Aksah replied, “Do me a special favor, since you have given me the land of the Negev: Also give me some springs of water.” Then Caleb gave her the upper springs and lower springs.
Axsa ɖo eŋu be, “Na nu bubu aɖem, elabena anyigba si nènam la nye gbegbe sɔŋ! Na teƒe si tsi le lam.” Ale Kaleb tsɔ tsivudo si le to dzi kple balime la nɛ.
20 This was the inheritance of the tribe of Judah, clan by clan.
