Joshua 15

1 [This] then was the lot of the tribe of the children of Judah by their families; [even] to the border of Edom, the wilderness of Zin southward [was] the uttermost part of the south border.

١ وَكَانَتِ ٱلْقُرْعَةُ لِسِبْطِ بَنِي يَهُوذَا حَسَبَ عَشَائِرِهِمْ: إِلَى تُخْمِ أَدُومَ بَرِّيَّةَ صِينَ نَحْوَ ٱلْجَنُوبِ، أَقْصَى ٱلتَّيْمَنِ.

2 And their south border was from the shore of the salt-sea, from the bay that looketh southward:

٢ وَكَانَ تُخْمُهُمُ ٱلْجَنُوبِيُّ أَقْصَى بَحْرِ ٱلْمِلْحِ مِنَ ٱللِّسَانِ ٱلْمُتَوَجِّهِ نَحْوَ ٱلْجَنُوبِ.

3 And it went out to the south side to Maaleh-acrabbim, and passed along to Zin, and ascended on the south side to Kadesh-barnea, and passed along to Hezron, and went up to Adar, and fetched a compass to Karkaa:

٣ وَخَرَجَ إِلَى جَنُوبِ عَقَبَةِ عَقْرِبِّيمَ وَعَبَرَ إِلَى صِينَ، وَصَعِدَ مِنْ جَنُوبِ قَادَشِ بَرْنِيعَ وَعَبَرَ إِلَى حَصْرُونَ، وَصَعِدَ إِلَى أَدَّارَ إِلَى ٱلْقَرْقَعِ،

4 [From thence] it passed towards Azmon, and went out to the river of Egypt; and the limits of that border were at the sea: this shall be your south limit.

٤ وَعَبَرَ إِلَى عَصْمُونَ وَخَرَجَ إِلَى وَادِي مِصْرَ. وَكَانَتْ مَخَارِجُ ٱلتُّخْمِ عِنْدَ ٱلْبَحْرِ. هَذَا يَكُونُ تُخْمُكُمُ ٱلْجَنُوبِيُّ.

5 And the east border [was] the salt-sea, [even] to the end of Jordan: and [their] border in the north quarter [was] from the bay of the sea, at the uttermost part of Jordan:

٥ وَتُخْمُ ٱلشَّرْقِ بَحْرُ ٱلْمِلْحِ إِلَى طَرَفِ ٱلْأُرْدُنِّ. وَتُخْمُ جَانِبِ ٱلشِّمَالِ مِنْ لِسَانِ ٱلْبَحْرِ أَقْصَى ٱلْأُرْدُنِّ.

6 And the border went up to Beth-hogla, and passed along by the north of Beth-arabah; and the border went up to the stone of Bohan the son of Reuben:

٦ وَصَعِدَ ٱلتُّخْمُ إِلَى بَيْتِ حُجْلَةَ وَعَبَرَ مِنْ شِمَالِ بَيْتِ ٱلْعَرَبَةِ، وَصَعِدَ ٱلتُّخْمُ إِلَى حَجَرِ بُوهَنَ بْنِ رَأُوبَيْنَ،

7 And the border went up towards Debir from the valley of Achor, and so northward looking towards Gilgal, that [is] before the going up to Adummim, which [is] on the south side of the river: and the border passed towards the waters of En-shemesh, and the borders of it were at En-rogel:

٧ وَصَعِدَ ٱلتُّخْمُ إِلَى دَبِيرَ مِنْ وَادِي عَخُورَ وَتَوَجَّهَ نَحْوَ ٱلشِّمَالِ إِلَى ٱلْجِلْجَالِ ٱلَّتِي مُقَابِلَ عَقَبَةِ أَدُمِّيمَ ٱلَّتِي مِنْ جَنُوبِيِّ ٱلْوَادِي. وَعَبَرَ ٱلتُّخْمُ إِلَى مِيَاهِ عَيْنِ شَمْسٍ، وَكَانَتْ مَخَارِجُهُ إِلَى عَيْنِ رُوجَلَ.

8 And the border went up by the valley of the son of Hinnom, to the south side of the Jebusite; the same [is] Jerusalem: and the border went up to the top of the mountain that [lieth] before the valley of Hinnom westward, which [is] at the end of the valley of the giants northward:

٨ وَصَعِدَ ٱلتُّخْمُ فِي وَادِي ٱبْنِ هِنُّومَ إِلَى جَانِبِ ٱلْيَبُوسِيِّ مِنَ ٱلْجَنُوبِ، هِيَ أُورُشَلِيمُ. وَصَعِدَ ٱلتُّخْمُ إِلَى رَأْسِ ٱلْجَبَلِ ٱلَّذِي قُبَالَةَ وَادِي هِنُّومَ غَرْبًا، ٱلَّذِي هُوَ فِي طَرَفِ وَادِي ٱلرَّفَائِيِّينَ شِمَالًا.

9 And the border was drawn from the top of the hill to the fountain of the water of Nephtoah, and went out to the cities of mount Ephron; and the border was drawn to Baalah, which [is] Kirjath-jearim:

٩ وَٱمْتَدَّ ٱلتُّخْمُ مِنْ رَأْسِ ٱلْجَبَلِ إِلَى مَنْبَعِ مِيَاهِ نَفْتُوحَ، وَخَرَجَ إِلَى مُدُنِ جَبَلِ عِفْرُونَ وَٱمْتَدَّ ٱلتُّخْمُ إِلَى بَعَلَةَ، هِيَ قَرْيَةُ يَعَارِيمَ.

10 And the border compassed from Baalah westward to mount Seir, and passed along to the side of mount Jearim (which [is] Chesalon) on the north side, and went down to Beth-shemesh, and passed on to Timnah:

١٠ وَٱمْتَدَّ ٱلتُّخْمُ مِنْ بَعَلَةَ غَرْبًا إِلَى جَبَلِ سَعِيرَ، وَعَبَرَ إِلَى جَانِبِ جَبَلِ يَعَارِيمَ مِنَ ٱلشِّمَالِ، هِيَ كَسَالُونُ. وَنَزَلَ إِلَى بَيْتِ شَمْسٍ وَعَبَرَ إِلَى تِمْنَةَ.

11 And the border went out to the side of Ekron northward: and the border was drawn to Shicron, and passed along to mount Baalah, and went out to Jabneel; and the terminations of the border were at the sea.

١١ وَخَرَجَ ٱلتُّخْمُ إِلَى جَانِبِ عَقْرُونَ نَحْوَ ٱلشِّمَالِ وَٱمْتَدَّ ٱلتُّخْمُ إِلَى شَكْرُونَ وَعَبَرَ جَبَلَ ٱلْبَعَلَةِ وَخَرَجَ إِلَى يَبْنِئِيلَ. وَكَانَ مَخَارِجُ ٱلتُّخُمِ عِنْدَ ٱلْبَحْرِ.

12 And the west border [was] to the great sea, and its coast: this [is] the border of the children of Judah round about, according to their families.

١٢ وَٱلتُّخْمُ ٱلْغَرْبِيُّ ٱلْبَحْرُ ٱلْكَبِيرُ وَتُخُومُهُ. هَذَا تُخْمُ بَنِي يَهُوذَا مُسْتَدِيرٌ حَسَبَ عَشَائِرِهِمْ.

13 And to Caleb the son of Jephunneh he gave a part among the children of Judah, according to the commandment of the LORD to Joshua, [even] the city of Arba the father of Anak, which [city is] Hebron.

١٣ وَأَعْطَى كَالَبُ بْنَ يَفُنَّةَ قِسْمًا فِي وَسَطِ بَنِي يَهُوذَا حَسَبَ قَوْلِ ٱلرَّبِّ لِيَشُوعَ: قَرْيَةَ أَرْبَعَ أَبِي عَنَاقَ، هِيَ حَبْرُونُ.

14 And Caleb drove thence the three sons of Anak, Sheshai, and Ahiman, and Talmai, the children of Anak.

١٤ وَطَرَدَ كَالَبُ مِنْ هُنَاكَ بَنِي عَنَاقَ ٱلثَّلَاثَةَ: شِيشَايَ وَأَخِيمَانَ وَتَلْمَايَ، أَوْلَادَ عَنَاقَ.

15 And he went up thence to the inhabitants of Debir: and the name of Debir before [was] Kirjath-sepher.

١٥ وَصَعِدَ مِنْ هُنَاكَ إِلَى سُكَّانِ دَبِيرَ. وَكَانَ ٱسْمُ دَبِيرَ قَبْلًا قَرْيَةَ سِفْرٍ

16 And Caleb said, He that smiteth Kirjath-sepher, and taketh it, to him will I give Achsah my daughter for a wife.

١٦ وَقَالَ كَالَبُ: «مَنْ يَضْرِبُ قَرْيَةَ سِفْرٍ وَيَأْخُذُهَا أُعْطِيهِ عَكْسَةَ ٱبْنَتِي ٱمْرَأَةً».

17 And Othniel the son of Kenaz, the brother of Caleb, took it: and he gave him Achsah his daughter for a wife.

١٧ فَأَخَذَهَا عُثْنِيئِيلُ بْنُ قَنَازَ أَخُو كَالَبَ. فَأَعْطَاهُ عَكْسَةَ ٱبْنَتَهُ ٱمْرَأَةً.

18 And it came to pass, as she came [to him], that she moved him to ask of her father a field. And she lighted off [her] ass; and Caleb said to her, What wouldst thou?

١٨ وَكَانَ عِنْدَ دُخُولِهَا أَنَّهَا غَرَّتْهُ بِطَلَبِ حَقْلٍ مِنْ أَبِيهَا. فَنَزَلَتْ عَنِ ٱلْحِمَارِ فَقَالَ لَهَا كَالَبُ: «مَا لَكِ؟»

19 Who answered, Give me a blessing; for thou hast given me a south land, give me also springs of water. And he gave her the upper springs, and the nether springs.

١٩ فَقَالَتْ: «أَعْطِنِي بَرَكَةً. لِأَنَّكَ أَعْطَيْتَنِي أَرْضَ ٱلْجَنُوبِ فَأَعْطِنِي يَنَابِيعَ مَاءٍ». فَأَعْطَاهَا ٱلْيَنَابِيعَ ٱلْعُلْيَا وَٱلْيَنَابِيعَ ٱلسُّفْلَى.

20 This [is] the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Judah according to their families.

٢٠ هَذَا نَصِيبُ سِبْطِ بَنِي يَهُوذَا حَسَبَ عَشَائِرِهِمْ:

21 And the uttermost cities of the tribe of the children of Judah towards the border of Edom southward were Kabzeel, and Eder, and Jagur,

٢١ وَكَانَتِ ٱلْمُدُنُ ٱلْقُصْوَى ٱلَّتِي لِسِبْطِ بَنِي يَهُوذَا إِلَى تُخْمِ أَدُومَ جَنُوبًا: قَبْصِئِيلَ وَعِيدَرَ وَيَاجُورَ،
