1 A nd 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.

أمّا الأرْضُ الَّتِي أُعطِيَتْ بِالقُرْعَةِ لِعَشِيرَةِ يَهُوذا بِحَسَبِ عَشائِرِها، فَقَدِ امتَدَّتْ جَنُوباً إلَى حُدُودِ أدُومَ إلَى بَرِّيَّةِ صِينَ فِي أقصَى الجَنُوبِ.

2 A nd their southern border was from the end of the salt sea, from the tongue that turns southward;

وَوَصَلَ حَدُّها الجَنُوبِيُّ إلَى الخَلِيجِ فِي طَرَفِ بَحْرِ المِلحِ الَّذِي يَمتَدُّ نَحْوَ الجَنُوبِ.

3 a nd 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,

وَيَمُرُّ الحَدُّ الجَنُوبِيُّ بِجَنُوبِ مَمَرِّ العَقْرَبِ، إلَى صِينَ. ثُمَّ إلَى الجَنُوبِ مِنْ قادَشَ بَرْنِيعَ وَيَدُورُ حَولَ حَصْرُونَ ثُمَّ يَصْعَدُ إلَى أدّارَ، وَيَمْتَدُّ إلَى القَرْقَعِ،

4 a nd 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.

ثُمَّ يَمْتَدُّ حَولَ عَصْمُونَ، ثُمَّ إلَى وادِي مِصْرَ، وَيَنْتَهِي عِندَ البَحْرِ. هَذا هوَ حَدُّهُمُ الجَنُوبِيُّ.

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;

وَالحَدُّ الشَّرقِيُّ هوَ بَحرُ المِلحِ حَتَّى مَصَبِّ نَهرِ الأُردُنِّ. وَالحَدُّ الشِّمالِيُّ يَمتَدُّ مِنْ خَلِيجِ البَحرِ عِندَ مَصَبِّ نَهرِ الأُردُنِّ،

6 a nd the border went up toward Beth-hoglah, and passed north of Beth-Arabah; and the border went up to the stone of Bohan, the son of Reuben;

وَيَصْعَدُ إلَى بَيتِ حُجلَةَ، ثُمَّ يَمْتَدُّ إلَى الشَّمالِ مِنْ بَيتِ العَرَبَةِ. ثُمَّ يَصْعَدُ إلَى حَجَرِ بُوهَنَ بْنِ رَأُوبَيْنَ.

7 a nd the border went up toward Debir from the valley of Achor, and turned northward to Gilgal, which is opposite to the ascent of Adummim, which is on the south side of the torrent; and the border passed to the waters of En-shemesh, and ended at En-rogel;

ثُمَّ يَصْعَدُ الحَدُّ إلَى دَبِيرَ مِنْ وادِي عَخُورَ، ثُمَّ يَمْتَدُّ نَحوَ الشِّمالِ إلَى الجِلْجالِ مُقابِلَ مَمَرِّ أدُومِّيمَ الَّتِي تَقَعُ إلَى الجَنُوبِ مِنَ الوادِي. ثُمَّ يَمْتَدُّ الحَدُّ حَولَ عَينِ شَمسٍ، وَيَنتَهِي فِي عَينِ رُوجَلَ.

8 a nd the border went up to the valley of the son of Hinnom, toward the south side of the Jebusite, that is, Jerusalem; and the border went up to the top of the mountain that is before the valley of Hinnom westward, which is at the end of the valley of Rephaim northward;

ثُمَّ يَصْعَدُ الحَدُّ إلَى وادِي بْنِ هِنُّومَ جَنُوبَ مُنحَدَرِ اليَبُوسِيِّينَ، أي مَدينَةِ القُدْسِ. ثُمَّ يَصْعَدُ الحَدُّ إلَى قِمَّةِ الجَبَلِ الواقِعِ إلَى الغَرْبِ مِنْ وادِي هِنُّومَ عِندَ الطَّرَفِ الشِّمالِيِّ لِوادِي رَفائِيمَ.

9 a nd 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;

ثُمَّ يَمْتَدُّ الحَدُّ مِنْ قِمَّةِ الجَبَلِ إلَى النَّبْعِ، إلَى مِياهِ نَفْتُوحَ، ثُمَّ عَبْرَ الوادِي إلَى مُدُنِ جَبَلِ عِفْرُونَ. ثُمَّ يَمْتَدُّ نَحْوَ بَعَلَةَ الَّتِي هِيَ قَرياتُ يَعارِيمَ.

10 a nd the border turned from Baalah westwards toward mount Seir, and passed toward the side of Har-jearim, that is, Chesalon, northwards, and went down to Beth-shemesh, and passed Timnah.

ثُمَّ يَمْتَدُّ الحَدُّ إلَى الغَرْبِ مِنْ بَعَلَةَ إلَى جَبَلِ سَعِيرَ، ثُمَّ يَمْتَدُّ إلَى المُنحَدَرِ الشِّمالِيِّ لِجَبَلِ يَعارِيمَ، الَّذِي هوَ كَسالُونَ، ثُمَّ يَنزِلُ إلَى بَيتِ شَمسٍ، ثُمَّ يَمْتَدُّ إلَى تِمْنَةَ.

11 A nd the border went out to the side of Ekron northwards, and the border reached along toward Shicron, and passed mount Baalah, and went toward Jabneel; and the border ended at the sea.

وَيَعبُرُ الحَدُّ الوادِي إلَى المُنْحَدَرِ فِي شِمالِ عِقْرُونَ. ثُمَّ يَمْتَدُّ نَحْوَ شَكْرُونَ، ثُمَّ حَولَ جَبَلِ بَعَلَةَ، ثُمَّ يَعبُرُ الوادِي إلَى يَبْنِئِيلَ. وَيَنتَهِي الحَدُّ عِندَ البَحْرِ.

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

وَأمّا الحَدُّ الغَربِيُّ فَهوَ البَحرُ وَشاطِئُهُ. هَذا هوَ الحَدُّ المُحِيطُ بَقَبِيلَةِ يَهُوذا بِحَسَبِ عَشائِرِهِا.

13 A nd to Caleb the son of Jephunneh he gave a portion among the children of Judah according to the commandment of Jehovah to Joshua, the city of Arba, the father of Anak, that is, Hebron.

وَأعطَى يَشُوعُ كالَبَ بْنَ يَفُنَّةَ حِصَّةً مِنَ الأرْضِ وَسَطَ قَبِيلَةِ يَهُوذا بِحَسَبِ أمرِ اللهِ لِيَشُوعَ، فَأعطاهُ قَرياتَ أرْبَعَ، أي حَبْرُونَ. وَأربَعُ هوَ جَدُّ عَناقَ.

14 A nd thence Caleb dispossessed the three sons of Anak, Sheshai and Ahiman and Talmai, who were born of Anak.

وَطَرَدَ كالَبُ مِنْ هُناكَ أبناءَ عَناقَ الثَّلاثَةَ: شِيشايَ وَأخِيمانَ وَتَلْمايَ.

15 A nd from there he went up against the inhabitants of Debir; now the name of Debir before was Kirjath-sepher.

وَصَعِدَ مِنْ هُناكَ لِيُهُاجِمَ سُكّانَ دَبِيرَ. وَكانَ اسْمُ دَبِيرَ سابِقاً قَرْياتَ سِفْرَ.

16 A nd Caleb said, He that smites Kirjath-sepher and takes it, to him will I give Achsah my daughter as wife.

فَقالَ كالَبُ: «مَنْ يُهاجِمُ قَرياتَ سِفْرَ وَيَستَولِي عَلَيها فَإنِّي سَأُعطِيهِ ابنَتِي عَكْسَةَ زَوجَةً لَهُ.»

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

فَاسْتَولَى عَلَيها عُثْنِيئِيلُ بْنُ قَنازَ أخُو كالَبَ الأصْغَرَ مِنْهُ، فَأعطاهُ كالَبُ ابنَتَهُ عَكْسَةَ زَوجَةً لَهُ.

18 A nd 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?

وَلَمّا جاءَتْ إلَى عُثْنِيئِيلَ، حَثَّها عَلَى أنْ تَطلَبَ حَقلاً مِنْ أبِيها. فَلَمّا نَزَلَتْ مِنَ عَلَى الحِمارِ، قالَ لَها كالَبُ: «ما الأمْرُ؟»

19 A nd 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.

فَقالَتْ لَهُ: «أعطِنِي بَرَكَةً. قَدْ أعطَيتَنِي أرْضاً جافَّةً فِي النَّقَبِ، فَأعطِنِي بِرَكَ ماءٍ أيضاً.» فَأعطاها البِرَكَ العُلْيا وَالسُّفلَى.

20 T his is the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Judah according to their families.
