15:001
a NAME="1">1 And the lot for the tribe of the children of
Judah according to their families was unto the border of Edom, even to the
wilderness of Zin southward, at the uttermost part of the south
15:002
And their south border was from the uttermost part of the
Salt Sea, from the bay that looked southward
15:003
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, and went up to Addar, and turned about to Karka
15:004
And it passed along to Azmon, and went out at the Brook of
Egypt; and the goings out of the border were at the sea; this shall be your
south border
15:005
And the east border was the Salt Sea, even unto the end of
the Jordan. And the border of the north side was from the bay of the sea at the
end of the Jordan
15:006
And 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
15:007
And 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 brook; and the border passed along to
the waters of En-shemesh, and the goings out thereof were at En-rogel
15:008
And the border went up by the Valley of the son of Hinnom
unto the side of the Jebusite southward--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 uttermost part of the vale of Rephaim northward
15:009
And the border was drawn from the top of the mountain unto
the fountain of the waters of Nephtoah, and went out to the cities of mount
Ephron; and the border was drawn to Baalah--the same is Kiriath-jearim
15:010
And the border turned about from Baalah westward unto
mount Seir, and passed along unto the side of mount Jearim on the north--the
same is Chesalon--and went down to Beth-shemesh, and passed along by Timnah
15:011
And the border went out unto the side of Ekron northward;
and the border was drawn to Shikkeron, and passed along to mount Baalah, and
went out at Jabneel; and the goings out of the border were at the sea
15:012
And as for the west border, the Great Sea was the border
thereof. This is the border of the children of Judah round about according to
their families
15:013
And unto Caleb the son of Jephunneh he gave a portion
among the children of Judah, according to the commandment of HaShem to Joshua,
even Kiriath-arba, which Arba was the father of Anak--the same is Hebron
15:014
And Caleb drove out thence the three sons of Anak, Sheshai,
and Ahiman, and Talmai, the children of Anak
15:015
And he went up thence against the inhabitants of Debir--now
the name of Debir beforetime was Kiriath-sepher
15:016
And Caleb said: 'He that smiteth Kiriath-sepher, and
taketh it, to him will I give Achsah my daughter to wife.
15:017
And Othniel the son of Kenaz, the brother of Caleb, took
it; and he gave him Achsah his daughter to wife
15:018
And it came to pass, when she came unto him, that she
persuaded him to ask of her father a field; and she alighted from off her ass;
and Caleb said unto her: 'What wouldest thou?
15:019
And she said: 'Give me a blessing; for that thou hast set
me in the Southland, give me therefore springs of water.' And he gave her the
Upper Springs and the Nether Springs
15:020
This is the inheritance of the tribe of the children of
Judah according to their families
