Joshua 15
1 Naguo bũrũri ũrĩa wagaĩirwo mũhĩrĩga wa Juda, kũringana na ũrĩa mbarĩ ciao ciatariĩ, wakinyĩte o mũhaka-inĩ wa bũrũri wa Edomu, o na ũgakinya werũ-inĩ wa Zini gĩturi-inĩ kĩa mwena ũcio wa gũthini.
Now the lot of the children of Juda by their kindreds was this: From the frontier of Edom, to the desert of Sin southward, and to the uttermost part of the south coast.
2 Mũhaka wao wa mwena wa gũthini wambĩrĩire gĩcongoco-inĩ kĩa mwena wa gũthini kĩa Iria rĩa Cumbĩ,
Its beginning was from the top of the most salt sea, and from the bay thereof, that looketh to the south.
3 mũhaka ũcio ũkahĩtũkĩra mwena wa gũthini wa Mwanya wa Akirabimu, ũgathiĩ na mbere o nginya Zini, na ũkambatĩrĩra na mwena wa gũthini wa Kadeshi-Barinea. Ningĩ ũgathiĩ wĩgiritanĩtie na Hezironi, ũkambata ũgakinya Adari, ningĩ ũkarigiicũka ũgakinya Karika.
And it goeth out towards the ascent of the Scorpion, and passeth on to Sina: and ascendeth into Cadesbarne, and reacheth into Esron, going up to Addar, and compassing Carcaa.
4 Ningĩ wacookete ũgathiĩ o ro ũguo nginya Azimoni, ũkoimĩrĩra karũũĩ ka bũrũri wa Misiri, ũkarĩkĩrĩria iria-inĩ. Ũyũ nĩguo mũhaka wao wa mwena wa gũthini.
And from thence passing along into Asemona, and reaching the torrent of Egypt: and the bounds thereof shall be the great sea, this shall be the limit of the south coast.
5 Mũhaka wa mwena wa irathĩro warĩ Iria rĩa Cumbĩ nginya mũthia wa Rũũĩ rwa Jorodani. Naguo mũhaka wa mwena wa gathigathini wambĩrĩirie gĩcongoco-inĩ kĩa iria mũthia-inĩ wa Rũũĩ rwa Jorodani,
But on the east side the beginning shall be the most salt sea even to the end of the Jordan: and towards the north, from the bay of the sea unto the same river Jordan.
6 ũkambatĩrĩra nginya Bethi-Hogila, na ũgathiĩ ũhĩtũkĩire mwena wa gathigathini wa Bethi-Araba, na ũkambata ũgakinya Ihiga-inĩ rĩa Bohani mũrũ wa Rubeni.
And the border goeth up into Beth-Hagla, and passeth by the north into Beth-Araba: going up to the stone of Boen the son of Ruben.
7 Ningĩ mũhaka ũcio wacookete ũkambata nginya Debiri uumĩte Gĩtuamba kĩa Akori, ũgacooka ũkerekera gathigathini o nginya itũũra-inĩ rĩa Giligali, rĩrĩa rĩangʼethanĩire na Mwanya wa Adumimu, mwena wa gũthini wa mũkuru ũcio. Wacookete ũgathiĩ na mbere ũgakinya maaĩ-inĩ ma Eni-Shemeshu, na ũkoimĩrĩra o kũu Eni-Rogeli.
And reaching as far as the borders of Debara from the valley of Achor, and so northward looking towards Galgal, which is opposite to the ascent of Adommin, on the south side of the torrent: and the border passeth the waters that are called the fountain of the sun: and the goings out thereof shall be at the fountain Rogel.
8 Ningĩ ũkambatania na Gĩtuamba kĩa Beni-Hinomu ũikũrũkanĩtie na kĩharũrũka kĩa mwena wa gũthini wa itũũra inene rĩa Mũjebusi (na nĩrĩo Jerusalemu). Kuuma hau ũkambata nginya gacũmbĩrĩ ga karĩma karĩa karĩ mwena wa ithũĩro wa Gĩtuamba kĩa Hinomu o kũu mũthia wa gathigathini wa Gĩtuamba kĩa Refaimu.
And it goeth up by the valley of the son of Ennom on the side of the Jebusite towards the south, the same is Jerusalem: and thence ascending to the top of the mountain, which is over against Geennom to the west in the end of the valley of Raphaim, northward.
9 Kuuma gacũmbĩrĩ ga karĩma mũhaka ũcio werekeire gĩthima kĩa maaĩ ma Nefitoa, ũkiumĩrĩra matũũra-inĩ ma kĩrĩma kĩa Efironi, na ũgaikũrũka ũgakinya Baala (na nokuo Kiriathu-Jearimu).
And it passeth on from the top of the mountain to the fountain of the water of Nephtoa: and reacheth to the towns of mount Ephron: and it bendeth towards Baala, which is Cariathiarim, that is to say, the city of the woods.
10 Ningĩ mũhaka ũcio ũkarigiicũka na mwena wa ithũĩro uumĩte Baala ũgakinya Kĩrĩma kĩa Seiru, ũgacooka ũgaaikũrũkania na kĩharũrũka kĩa mwena wa gathigathini wa kĩrĩma gĩa Jearimu (nĩkĩo Kesaloni), ũgathiĩ na mbere ũikũrũkĩte nginya Bethi-Shemeshu, na ũgakĩra nginya Timina.
And it compasseth from Baala westward unto mount Seir: and passeth by the side of mount Jarim to the north into Cheslon: and goeth down into Bethsames, and passeth into Thamna.
11 Ningĩ mũhaka ũcio ũkoima hau, ũgathiĩ nginya kĩharũrũka-inĩ kĩa mwena wa gathigathini wa Ekironi, ũkehiũria werekeire Shikeroni, ũkahĩtũka, ũgathiĩ kĩrĩma-inĩ kĩa Baala, na ũgakinya Jabuneeli. Mũhaka ũcio wathirĩire o iria-inĩ.
And it reacheth northward to a part of Accaron at the side: and bendeth to Sechrona, and passeth mount Baala: and cometh into Jebneel, and is bounded westward with the great sea.
12 Naguo mũhaka wa mwena wa ithũĩro wegiritanĩtie na hũgũrũrũ cia Iria rĩrĩa Inene. Ĩyo nĩyo mĩhaka ĩrĩa yathiũrũrũkĩirie andũ a mũhĩrĩga wa Juda, o ta ũrĩa mbarĩ ciao ciatariĩ.
These are the borders round about of the children of Juda in their kindreds.
13 O ta ũrĩa Jehova aamwathĩte-rĩ, Joshua nĩaheire Kalebu wa Jefune igai thĩinĩ wa mũhĩrĩga wa Juda, akĩheo Kiriathu-Ariba, na nokuo Hebironi. (Ariba nĩwe warĩ ithe wa Anaki).
But to Caleb the son of Jephone he gave a portion in the midst of the children of Juda, as the Lord had commanded him: Cariath-Arbe the father of Enac. which is Hebron.
14 Nake Kalebu akĩingata Anaki arĩa atatũ kuuma Hebironi, nĩo Sheshai, na Ahimani, na Talimai, arĩa njiaro cia Anaki.
And Caleb destroyed out of it the three sons of Ehac, Sesai and Ahiman. and Tholmai of the race of Enac.
15 Ningĩ agĩcooka agĩthiĩ kũrũa na andũ arĩa maatũũraga itũũra inene rĩa Debiri (kũrĩa tene gwetagwo Kiriathu-Sefari.)
And going up from thence he came to the inhabitants of Dabir, which before was called Cariath-Sepher, that is to say, the city of letters.
16 Nake Kalebu akiuga atĩrĩ, “Mũndũ ũrĩa ugũtharĩkĩra na atunyane Kiriathu-Sefari, ũcio nĩwe ngũhe mwarĩ wakwa Akisa, amũhikie.”
And Caleb said: He that shall smite Cariath-Sepher, and take it, I will give him Axa my daughter to wife.
17 Nake Othinieli mũrũ wa Kenazu, mũrũ wa ithe na Kalebu, nĩwe watunyanire itũũra rĩu; nĩ ũndũ ũcio Kalebu akĩmũhe mwarĩ Akisa atuĩke mũtumia wake.
And Othoniel the son of Cenez, the younger brother of Caleb, took it: and he gave him Axa his daughter to wife.
18 Mũthenya ũmwe rĩrĩa Akisa aathiire kũrĩ Othinieli-rĩ, akĩringĩrĩria Akisa ahooe mũgũnda kũrĩ ithe Kalebu. Aarĩkia kuuma igũrũ rĩa ndigiri yake, Kalebu akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Ũkwenda ngwĩkĩre atĩa?”
And as they were going together, she was moved by her husband to ask a field of her father, and she sighed as she sat on her ass. And Caleb said to her: What aileth thee?
19 Nake akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Ndagũthaitha ũndathime. Tondũ nĩũũheete bũrũri wa Negevu, he ithima cia maaĩ o nacio.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Kalebu akĩmũhe ithima cia mwena wa rũgongo na cia mwena wa kĩanda.
But she answered: Give me a blessing: thou hast given me a southern and dry land, give me also a land that is watered. And Caleb gave her the upper and the nether watery ground.
20 Rĩĩrĩ nĩrĩo igai rĩa mũhĩrĩga wa Juda, kũringana na ũrĩa mbarĩ ciao ciatariĩ.
This is the possession of the tribe of the children of Juda by their kindreds.
