Yoswa 15

1 Omugabo gw’abaana ba Yuda ng’enju zaabwe bwe zaali bwe baakuba akalulu, baaweebwa ekitundu okutuuka ku nsalo ya Edomu, ku lukoola lwa Zini, ku nkomerero y’oluuyi olw’obukiikaddyo.

The lot for the tribe of the descendants of Judah according to their families was to the border of Edom, even to the wilderness of Zin southward, toward the Negev in the far south.

2 N’ensalo yaabwe ey’oluuyi olwo okuva ku Nnyanja ey’Omunnyo w’eva, ku kikono ekitunudde mu bukiikaddyo;

Their south border was from the uttermost part of the Salt Sea, from the bay that looks southward;

3 n’esala wansi w’ekkubo eririnnya ku Akkulabimu n’eyita okutuuka ku Zini n’erinnya okuyita wansi wa Kadesubanea, n’eyita kumpi ne Kezulooni, n’erinnya ku Addali, n’ekyamira ku Kaluka;

and it went out southward of the ascent of Akrabbim, and passed along to Zin, and went up by the south of Kadesh Barnea, and passed along by Hezron, went up to Addar, and turned about to Karka;

4 n’eyita ku Azumoni n’ekoma ku mugga ogw’e Misiri, n’eryoka esibira ku nnyanja. Eno ye yali ensalo yaabwe ey’obukiikaddyo.

and it passed along to Azmon, went out at the Wadi of Egypt; and the border ended at the sea. This was their southern border.

5 N’ensalo yaabwe ey’obuvanjuba yali nnyanja ey’obukiikakkono. Kyali kikono kya Yoludaani we guyiyira ku Nnyanja ey’Omunnyo. N’ensalo ey’obukiikakkono kyali kikono kya nnyanja Yoludaani we guyiyiramu.

The east border was the Salt Sea, even to the end of the Jordan. The border of the north quarter was from the bay of the sea at the end of the Jordan.

6 N’eyambuka n’eyita ku Besukogula n’eyita ku luuyi lw’ebuvanjuba bwa Besualaba n’eyambuka okutuuka ku jjinja lya Bokani omwana wa Lewubeeni.

The border went up to Beth Hoglah, and passed along by the north of Beth Arabah; and the border went up to the Stone of Bohan the son of Reuben.

7 Era n’erinnya ku Debiri okuva mu kiwonvu Akoli, n’egenda ku luuyi olw’obukiikakkono, n’edda e Girugaali emitala w’ekkubo eryambuka ku Adummimu, ekiri emitala w’omugga mu bukiikaddyo, n’etuuka ku nsalo ku mazzi ag’e Ensemesi, n’esala n’ekoma ku Enerogeri. Awo n’eryoka eyita ku kiwonvu kya Kinomu ku luuyi lw’ebugwanjuba ekyali ku nkomerero ey’ekiwonvu kya Lefayimu ku luuyi olw’obukiikakkono.

The border went up to Debir from the Valley of Achor, and so northward, looking toward Gilgal, that is over against the ascent of Adummim, which is on the south side of the river. The border passed along to the waters of En Shemesh, and ended at En Rogel.

8 Awo n’eryoka eva ku kiwonvu ky’omwana wa Kinomu n’etuuka ku njegoyego za Yebusi ku luuyi olw’obukiikaddyo ye Yerusaalemi, ne yeeyongera ku ntikko y’olusozi oluli w’okkira mu kiwonvu kya Kinomu ku luuyi olw’ebugwanjuba, ku nkomerero y’ekiwonvu kya Lefayimu mu bukiikakkono;

The border went up by the Valley of Ben Hinnom to the slope of the Jebusites southward (that is, Jerusalem); and the border went up to the top of the mountain that lies before the Valley of Hinnom westward, which is at the farthest part of the Valley of Rephaim northward.

9 ne yeeyongera okuva ku ntikko y’olusozi n’etuuka ku luzzi olw’amazzi ga Nefutoa, ne yeeyongerayo n’etuuka ku bibuga eby’oku lusozi Efuloni, n’etuuka ku Baala, ye Kiriyasuyalimu,

The border extended from the top of the mountain to the spring of the waters of Nephtoah, and went out to the cities of Mount Ephron; and the border extended to Baalah (that is, Kiriath Jearim);

10 n’ewetamu okuva e Baala ku luuyi olw’ebugwanjuba n’etuuka ku lusozi Sayiri n’eyita n’etuuka ku mabbali g’olusozi Yealimu ku luuyi olw’omu bukiikakkono, ye Kyesaloni, n’ekka ku Besusemesi, n’eyita ku Timuna,

and the border turned about from Baalah westward to Mount Seir, and passed along to the side of Mount Jearim on the north (that is, Kesalon), and went down to Beth Shemesh, and passed along by Timnah;

11 n’egenda ku mabbali ag’e Ekuloni mu bukiikakkono, n’ekka ku Sikkeroni n’etuuka ku lusozi Baala, n’ekoma ku Yabuneeri, ne ku nnyanja.

and the border went out to the side of Ekron northward; and the border extended to Shikkeron, and passed along to Mount Baalah, and went out at Jabneel; and the goings out of the border were at the sea.

12 Ensalo ey’ebugwanjuba yali Ennyanja Ennene n’olubalama lwayo. Eyo ye yali ensalo y’abaana ba Yuda ku njuyi zonna ng’enju zaabwe bwe zaali.

The west border was to the shore of the Great Sea. This is the border of the descendants of Judah according to their families.

13 Yoswa n’awa Kalebu omwana wa Yefune omugabo mu baana ba Yuda Kiriasualuba, ye Kebbulooni, ng’ekiragiro kya Mukama bwe kyali. Aluba ye yali kitaawe wa Anaki.

To Caleb the son of Jephunneh he gave a portion among the descendants of Judah, according to the commandment of the LORD to Joshua, even Kiriath Arba, named after the father of Anak (that is, Hebron).

14 Kalebu n’agobamu abaana abasatu aba Anaki: Sesayi ne Akimaani, ne Talumaayi, abaana ba Anaki.

Caleb drove out the three sons of Anak: Sheshai, and Ahiman, and Talmai, the descendants of Anak.

15 N’ava eyo n’alumba abaali mu Debiri, edda eyayitibwanga Kiriasuseferi.

He went up against the inhabitants of Debir. Now the name of Debir formerly was Kiriath Sepher.

16 Kalebu n’agamba nti, “Anaakuba Kiriasuseferi n’akiwamba ndimuwa muwala wange Akusa amuwase.”

Caleb said, "He who strikes Kiriath Sepher, and takes it, to him will I give Achsah my daughter as wife."

17 Osunieri omwana wa Kenazi, muganda wa Kalebu, n’akikuba, Kalebu n’amuwa Akusa muwala we amuwase.

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

18 Awo bwe yajja gy’ali, n’amugamba asabe kitaawe ennimiro. Bwe yava ku ndogoyi ye, Kalebu n’amubuuza nti, “Kiki kyoyagala nkukolere?”

It happened, when she came, that she had him ask her father for a field. She got off of her donkey, and Caleb said, "What do you want?"

19 N’addamu nti, “Nsaba onnyambe nga bwe wampa ettaka mu Negebu, ompe n’ensulo z’amazzi.” Kalebu n’amuwa ensulo ez’engulu n’ez’emmanga.

She said, "Give me a blessing. Because you have set me in the land of the Negev, give me also springs of water." He gave her the upper springs and the lower springs.

20 Guno gwe mugabo gw’ekika ky’abaana ba Yuda ng’enju zaabwe bwe zaali.

This is the inheritance of the tribe of the descendants of Judah according to their families.
