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 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.
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 south border was from the uttermost part of the Salt Sea, from the bay that looketh 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 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;
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 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.
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;
5And the east border was the Salt Sea, even unto the end of the Jordan. And the border of the north quarter was from the bay of the 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;
6and the border hath gone up <FI>to<Fi> Beth-Hoglah, and passed over on the north of Beth-Arabah, and the border hath gone up <FI>to<Fi> the stone of Bohan son of Reuben:

7and the border hath gone up towards Debir from the valley of Achor, and northward looking unto Gilgal, which <FI>is<Fi> over-against the ascent of Adummim, which <FI>is<Fi> on the south of the brook, and the border hath passed over unto the waters of En-Shemesh, and its outgoings have been unto En-Rogel;
7and 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; and the border passed along to the waters of En-shemesh, and the goings out thereof were at En-rogel;
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 extended 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 extended to Baalah (the same is Kiriath-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;

12And 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.
12And the west border <FI>is<Fi> to the great sea, and <FI>its<Fi> border; this <FI>is<Fi> the border of the sons of Judah round about for their families.
12And the west border was to the great sea, and the border thereof. 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.

13And unto Caleb the son of Jephunneh he gave a portion among the children of Judah, according to the commandment of Jehovah to Joshua, even Kiriath-arba, which Arba was the father of Anak (the same is Hebron).
14And the three sons of Anak, Sheshai and Ahiman and Talmai, the children of Anak, were forced out from there by Caleb.
14And Caleb is dispossessing thence the three sons of Anak, Sheshai, and Ahiman, and Talmai, children of Anak,
14And Caleb drove out thence the three sons of Anak: Sheshai, and Ahiman, and Talmai, the children 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 he went up thence against the inhabitants of Debir: now the name of Debir beforetime was Kiriath-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 smiteth Kiriath-sepher, and taketh it, to him will I give Achsah my daughter to 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 to 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, when she came unto him, that she moved him to ask of her father a field: and she alighted from off her ass; and Caleb said, 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 that thou hast set me in the land of the South, give me also springs of water. And he gave her the upper springs and the nether springs.
