Iosue 15

1 igitur sors filiorum Iudae per cognationes suas ista fuit a termino Edom desertum Sin contra meridiem et usque ad extremam partem australis plagae

Now the part of the land marked out for the children of Judah by families, went up to the edge of Edom, as far as the waste land of Zin to the south, to the farthest point of it on the south.

2 initium eius a summitate maris Salsissimi et a lingua eius quae respicit meridiem

Their south limit was from the farthest part of the Salt Sea, from the inlet looking to the south:

3 egrediturque contra ascensum Scorpionis et pertransit in Sina ascenditque in Cadesbarne et pervenit in Esrom ascendens Addara et circumiens Caricaa

From there it goes south of the slope up to Akrabbim, and on to Zin, then south past Kadesh-barnea, and on by Hezron and up to Addar, turning in the direction of Karka:

4 atque inde pertransiens in Asemona et perveniens ad torrentem Aegypti eruntque termini eius mare Magnum hic erit finis meridianae plagae

Then on to Azmon, ending at the stream of Egypt: and the end of the limit is at the sea; this will be your limit on the south.

5 ab oriente vero erit initium mare Salsissimum usque ad extrema Iordanis et ea quae respiciunt aquilonem a lingua maris usque ad eundem Iordanem fluvium

And the east limit is the Salt Sea as far as the end of Jordan. And the limit of the north part of the land is from the inlet of the sea at the end of Jordan:

6 ascenditque terminus in Bethagla et transit ab aquilone in Betharaba ascendens ad lapidem Boem filii Ruben

Then the line goes up to Beth-hoglah, past the north of Beth-arabah, and up to the stone of Bohan, the son of Reuben;

7 et tendens usque ad terminos Debera de valle Achor contra aquilonem respiciens Galgala quae est ex adverso ascensionis Adommim ab australi parte torrentis transitque aquas quae vocantur fons Solis et erunt exitus eius ad fontem Rogel

Then the line goes up to Debir from the valley of Achor, and so to the north, in the direction of Gilgal, which is opposite the slope up to Adummim, on the south side of the river: and the line goes on to the waters of En-shemesh, ending at En-rogel:

8 ascenditque per convallem filii Ennom ex latere Iebusei ad meridiem haec est Hierusalem et inde se erigens ad verticem montis qui est contra Gehennom ad occidentem in summitate vallis Rafaim contra aquilonem

Then the line goes up by the valley of the son of Hinnom to the south side of the Jebusite (which is Jerusalem): then up to the top of the mountain in front of the valley of Hinnom to the west, which is at the farthest point of the valley of Rephaim on the north:

9 pertransitque a vertice montis usque ad fontem aquae Nepthoa et pervenit usque ad vicos montis Ephron inclinaturque in Bala quae est Cariathiarim id est urbs Silvarum

And the limit is marked out from the top of the mountain to the fountain of the waters of Nephtoah, and out to the towns of Mount Ephron, as far as Baalah (which is Kiriath-jearim):

10 et circuit de Bala contra occidentem usque ad montem Seir transitque iuxta latus montis Iarim ad aquilonem in Cheslon et descendit in Bethsames transitque in Thamna

Then turning west, the line goes from Baalah to Mount Seir, and on to the side of Mount Jearim (which is Chesalon) on the north, then down to Beth-shemesh, and on past Timnah:

11 et pervenit contra aquilonem partis Accaron ex latere inclinaturque Sechrona et transit montem Baala pervenitque in Iebnehel et maris Magni contra occidentem fine concluditur

And out to the side of Ekron to the north: then it is marked out to Shikkeron and on to Mount Baalah, ending at Jabneel; the end of the line is at the sea.

12 hii sunt termini filiorum Iuda per circuitum in cognationibus suis

And the limit on the west is the edge of the Great Sea. This is the line going round the land marked out for the children of Judah, by their families.

13 Chaleb vero filio Iepphonne dedit partem in medio filiorum Iuda sicut praeceperat ei Dominus Cariatharbe patris Enach ipsa est Hebron

And to Caleb, the son of Jephunneh, he gave a part among the children of Judah, as the Lord had given orders to Joshua, that is, Kiriath-arba, named after Arba, the father of Anak which is Hebron.

14 delevitque ex ea Chaleb tres filios Enach Sesai et Ahiman et Tholmai de stirpe Enach

And the three sons of Anak, Sheshai and Ahiman and Talmai, the children of Anak, were forced out from there by Caleb.

15 atque inde conscendens venit ad habitatores Dabir quae prius vocabatur Cariathsepher id est civitas Litterarum

From there he went up against the people of Debir: (now the name of Debir before that was Kiriath-sepher.)

16 dixitque Chaleb qui percusserit Cariathsepher et ceperit eam dabo illi Axam filiam meam uxorem

And Caleb said, I will give Achsah, my daughter, as wife to the man who overcomes Kiriath-sepher and takes it.

17 cepitque eam Othonihel filius Cenez frater Chaleb iunior deditque ei Axam filiam suam uxorem

And Othniel, the son of Kenaz, Caleb's brother, took it: so he gave him his daughter Achsah for his wife.

18 quae cum pergerent simul suasit viro ut peteret a patre suo agrum suspiravitque ut sedebat in asino cui Chaleb quid habes inquit

Now when she came to him, he put into her mind the idea of requesting a field from her father: and she got down from her ass; and Caleb said to her, What is it?

19 at illa respondit da mihi benedictionem terram australem et arentem dedisti mihi iunge et inriguam dedit itaque ei Chaleb inriguum superius et inferius

And she said, Give me a blessing; because you have put me in dry south-land, now give me springs of water. So he gave her the higher spring and the lower spring.

20 haec est possessio tribus filiorum Iuda per cognationes suas

This is the heritage of the tribe of Judah, by their families.

21 erantque civitates ab extremis partibus filiorum Iuda iuxta terminos Edom a meridie Cabsehel et Eder et Iagur
