[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 coast.
2 Nʼakụkụ ndịda, oke ala ha malitere nʼọnụ ọnụ ndịda osimiri Nnu.
And their south border was from the shore of the salt sea, from the bay that looketh southward:
3 Site nʼebe akụkụ ndịda nrigo Akrabim, gafee ruo nʼọzara Zin, ma rigoo nʼakụkụ nke ndịda Kadesh Banea, gafee Hezrọn rigoruo na Aada, gba gburugburu gaa Kaka;
And it went out to the south side to Maaleh-acrabbim, and passed along to Zin, and ascended up on the south side unto Kadesh-barnea, and passed along to Hezron, and went up to Adar, and fetched a compass to Karkaa:
4 site nʼebe ahụ ruo Azmọn, pụọ gbasoro iyi dị nʼoke ala ndị Ijipt gagide ruo nʼosimiri Mediterenịa. Nke a bụ oke ala nʼebe ndịda.
[From thence] it passed toward Azmon, and went out unto the river of Egypt; and the goings out of that coast were at the sea: this shall be your south coast.
5 Oke ala ha nʼọwụwa anyanwụ bụ oke osimiri Nnu, ruo nʼọnụ mmiri osimiri Jọdan. Oke ala ha nʼakụkụ ugwu bidoro nʼọnụ mmiri osimiri Jọdan,
And the east border [was] the salt sea, [even] unto the end of Jordan. And [their] border in the north quarter [was] from the bay of the sea at the uttermost part of Jordan:
6 gbatịrị ruo Bet-Hogla, ma ruo nʼugwu Bet-Araba, rukwaa na nkume Bohan, nwa Ruben.
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:
7 Site nʼebe ahụ, ọ gbatịrị ruo na Ndagwurugwu Akọ na Debịa, tụgharịa gbatịrịkwa ruo Gilgal, na ncherita ihu ala ala Adumim nke dị nʼakụkụ ndịda ndagwurugwu ahụ. Site nʼebe ahụ ọ gbatịrị ruo na mmiri En-Shemesh, kwụsị na En-Rogel.
And the border went up toward Debir from the valley of Achor, and so northward, looking toward Gilgal, that [is] before the going up to Adummim, which [is] on the south side of the river: and the border passed toward the waters of En-shemesh, and the goings out thereof were at En-rogel:
8 Oke ala ahụ gbagoro Ndagwurugwu nke Ben Hinom, rukwaa nʼakụkụ ndịda Jebus nʼebe e wuru obodo Jerusalem. Oke ala ahụ sitekwara ebe ahụ gbagoo ruo nʼelu dị nʼakụkụ ọdịda anyanwụ nke Ndagwurugwu Hinom, na nsọtụ ugwu nke Ndagwurugwu Refaim.
And the border went up by the valley of the son of Hinnom unto 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:
9 Site nʼelu ugwu ebe ahụ, oke ala ahụ gbatịrị ruo na mmiri ime ala Neftoa, pụta site nʼebe ahụ ruo obodo niile dị nso ugwu Efrọn. Site nʼEfrọn, oke ala ahụ gbadara ruo Baala (nke aha ya ọzọ bụ Kiriat Jearim).
And the border was drawn from the top of the hill unto 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:
10 Oke ala ahụ mere dịka ọ ga-agba Baala gburugburu nʼakụkụ ọdịda anyanwụ, site nʼebe ahụ pụta nʼugwu Sia, sitekwa nʼebe ahụ ruo nʼakụkụ ugwu Jearim (ya bụ Kesalon), gbatịa ruo na ndịda Bet-Shemesh, gafee ruo nʼọdịda anyanwụ oke ala Timna.
And the border compassed from Baalah westward unto mount Seir, and passed along unto the side of mount Jearim, which [is] Chesalon, on the north side, and went down to Beth-shemesh, and passed on to Timnah:
11 O sikwara ebe ahụ ruo ndịda ugwu Ekrọn, tụgharịa ruo Shikerọn, gafee ya, ruo nʼugwu Baala, sitekwa nʼebe ahụ ruo Jabneel, oke ala ahụ kwụsịrị nʼosimiri.
And the border went out unto the side of Ekron northward: and the border was drawn to Shicron, and passed along to mount Baalah, and went out unto Jabneel; and the goings out of the border were at the sea.
12 Oke ala ha nʼakụkụ ọdịda anyanwụ bụ ọnụ mmiri osimiri Mediterenịa. Ndị a bụ oke ala gbara ndị Juda gburugburu dịka ikwu ha niile si dị.
And the west border [was] to the great sea, and the coast [thereof]. This [is] the coast of the children of Judah round about according to their families.
13 Dịka iwu Onyenwe anyị nyere si dị, Joshua nyere Kaleb nwa Jefune oke nʼetiti ndị Juda. O kenyere ya Kiriat Aaba, ya bụ, Hebrọn. Aaba bụ nna nna Anak.
And unto 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.
14 Kaleb sitere nʼobodo Hebrọn chụpụ ndị ikom atọ, bụ Sheshai, na Ahiman, na Talmai, ụmụ Anak nʼala ha.
And Caleb drove thence the three sons of Anak, Sheshai, and Ahiman, and Talmai, the children of Anak.
15 O si nʼebe ahụ bilie ịlụso ndị bi na Debịa ọgụ. Nke a na-akpọ Kiriat Sefa nʼoge mbụ.
And he went up thence to the inhabitants of Debir: and the name of Debir before [was] Kirjath-sepher.
16 Kaleb sịrị, “Nwoke ọbụla ga-aga busoo Kiriat Sefa agha ma merie ya ka m ga-akpọnye Aksa, bụ nwa m nwanyị ka ọ bụrụ nwunye ya.”
And Caleb said, He that smiteth Kirjath-sepher, and taketh it, to him will I give Achsah my daughter to wife.
17 Ya mere, Otniel, nwa Kenaz, nwa nwanne Kaleb, lụgburu obodo ahụ nʼagha. Nʼihi nke a, Kaleb kpọnyere ya Aksa, bụ nwa ya nwanyị ka ọ bụrụ nwunye ya.
And Othniel the son of Kenaz, the brother of Caleb, took it: and he gave him Achsah his daughter to wife.
18 Otu ụbọchị, mgbe Aksa bịakwutere Otniel, ọ kwagidere ya ka ọ rịọọ ala ubi site nʼaka nna ya. Mgbe Aksa si nʼelu ịnyịnya ibu ya rịdata, Kaleb jụrụ ya sị, “Gịnị ka ị chọrọ ka m mere gị?”
And it came to pass, as she came [unto him], that she moved him to ask of her father a field: and she lighted off [her] ass; and Caleb said unto her, What wouldest thou?
19 Ọ zaghachiri, “Nyem onyinye pụrụ iche. Ebe ọ bụ na i nyela m ala Negev, biko nyekwa m isi mmiri ụfọdụ.” Nʼihi nke a, Kaleb nyere ya isi mmiri mgbago na isi mmiri nke ndịda.
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.
