1Now 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.
1And the lot for the tribe of the sons of Judah, for their families, is unto the border of Edom; the wilderness of Zin southward, at the extremity of the south;
1And the lot of the tribe of the children of Judah according to their families was: to the border of Edom, the wilderness of Zin, southward, in the extreme south.
2Their south limit was from the farthest part of the Salt Sea, from the inlet looking to the south:
2and to them the south border is at the extremity of the salt sea, from the bay which is looking southward;
2And their southern border was from the end of the salt sea, from the tongue that turns southward;
3From 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:
3and it hath gone out unto the south to Maaleh-Akrabbim, and passed over to Zin, and gone up on the south to Kadesh-Barnea, and passed over <FI>to<Fi> Hezron, and gone up to Adar, and turned round to Karkaa,
3and it went out south of the ascent of Akrabbim, and passed on to Zin, and went up on the south of Kadesh-barnea, and passed to Hezron, and went up toward Addar, and turned toward Karkaah,
4Then 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.
4and passed over <FI>to<Fi> Azmon, and gone out <FI>at<Fi> the brook of Egypt, and the outgoings of the border have been at the sea; this is to you the south border.
4and passed on to Azmon, and went out by the torrent of Egypt; and the border ended at the sea. That shall be your border southward.
5And 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:
5And the east border <FI>is<Fi> the salt sea, unto the extremity of the Jordan, and the border at the north quarter <FI>is<Fi> from the bay of the sea, at the extremity of the Jordan;
5— And the eastern border was the salt sea as far as the end of the Jordan. — And the border on the north side was from the tongue of the salt sea, at the end of the Jordan;
6Then the line goes up to Beth-hoglah, past the north of Beth-arabah, and up to the stone of Bohan, the son of Reuben;

8Then 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:
8and the border hath gone up the valley of the son of Hinnom, unto the side of the Jebusite on the south (it <FI>is<Fi> Jerusalem), and the border hath gone up unto the top of the hill-country which <FI>is<Fi> on the front of the valley of Hinnom westward, which <FI>is<Fi> in the extremity of the valley of the Rephaim northward;

9And 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):
9and the border hath been marked out, from the top of the hill-country unto the fountain of the waters of Nephtoah, and hath gone out unto the cities of mount Ephron, and the border hath been marked out <FI>to<Fi> Baalah, (it <FI>is<Fi> Kirjath-Jearim);
9and the border reached along from the top of the mountain toward the spring of the waters of Nephtoah, and went out toward the cities of mount Ephron; and the border reached along to Baalah, that is, Kirjath-jearim;
10Then 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:
10and the border hath gone round from Baalah westward, unto mount Seir, and passed over unto the side of mount Jearim (it <FI>is<Fi> Chesalon), on the north, and gone down <FI>to<Fi> Beth-Shemesh, and passed over to Timnah;

12— And the west border is the great sea and [its] coast. This is the border of the children of Judah round about, according to their families.
13And 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.

14And thence Caleb dispossessed the three sons of Anak, Sheshai and Ahiman and Talmai, who were born of Anak.
15From there he went up against the people of Debir: (now the name of Debir before that was Kiriath-sepher.)
15and he goeth up thence unto the inhabitants of Debir; and the name of Debir formerly is Kirjath-Sepher.
15And from there he went up against the inhabitants of Debir; now the name of Debir before was Kirjath-sepher.
16And Caleb said, I will give Achsah, my daughter, as wife to the man who overcomes Kiriath-sepher and takes it.
16And Caleb saith, `He who smiteth Kirjath-Sephar, and hath captured it--I have given to him Achsah my daughter for a wife.'
16And Caleb said, He that smites Kirjath-sepher and takes it, to him will I give Achsah my daughter as wife.
17And Othniel, the son of Kenaz, Caleb's brother, took it: so he gave him his daughter Achsah for his wife.
17And Othniel son of Kenaz, brother of Caleb, doth capture it, and he giveth to him Achsah his daughter for a wife.
17And Othniel the son of Kenaz, the brother of Caleb, took it; and he gave him Achsah his daughter as wife.
18Now 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?
18And it cometh to pass, in her coming in, that she persuadeth him to ask from her father a field, and she lighteth from off the ass, and Caleb saith to her, `What--to thee?'
18And it came to pass as she came, that she urged him to ask of her father a field; and she sprang down from the ass. And Caleb said to her, What wouldest thou?
19And 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.
19And she saith, `Give to me a blessing; when the land of the south thou hast given me, then thou hast given to me springs of waters;' and he giveth to her the upper springs and the lower springs.
19And she said, Give me a blessing; for thou hast given me a southern land; give me also springs of water. Then he gave her the upper springs and the lower springs.
