Judah

15The lot for the people of Judah, their clans, extended south to the border of Edom, to the wilderness of Zin in the extreme south.H1486H4294H1121H3063H4940H1366H123H4057H6790H5045H7097H8486

2The southern border ran from the tip of the Salt Sea south of The Tongue;H5045H1366H7097H4417H3220H3956H6437H5045

3it ran southward from Scorpions Pass, went around Zin and just south of Kadesh Barnea; then it ran past Hezron, ascended to Addar, and curved around to Karka;H3318H5045H4610H5674H6790H5927H5045H6947H5674H2696H5927H146H5437H7173

4from there it passed along to Azmon, came out at the Brook of Egypt, ending at the Sea. This is the southern boundary.H5674H6111H3318H5158H4714H8444H1366H3220H5045H1366

5The eastern boundary: the Salt Sea up to the mouth of the Jordan. The northern boundary started at the shallows of the Sea at the mouth of the Jordan,H6924H1366H4417H3220H7097H3383H1366H6828H6285H3956H3220H7097H3383

6went up to Beth Hoglah and around to the north of Beth Arabah and to the Stone of Bohan son of Reuben.H1366H5927H1031H5674H6828H1026H1366H5927H68H932H1121H7205

7The border then ascended to Debir from Trouble Valley and turned north toward Gilgal, which lies opposite Red Pass, just south of the gorge. The border then followed the Waters of En Shemesh and ended at En Rogel.H1366H5927H1688H6010H5911H6828H6437H1537H5227H4608H131H5045H5158H1366H5674H4325H5885H8444H5883

8The border followed the Valley of Ben Hinnom along the southern slope of the Jebusite ridge (that is, Jerusalem). It ascended to the top of the mountain opposite Hinnom Valley on the west, at the northern end of Rephaim Valley;H1366H5927H1516H1121H2011H5045H3802H2983H3389H1366H5927H7218H2022H6440H1516H2011H3220H7097H6010H7497H6828

9the border then took a turn at the top of the mountain to the spring, the Waters of Nephtoah, and followed the valley out to Mount Ephron, turned toward Baalah (that is, Kiriath Jearim),H1366H8388H7218H2022H4599H4325H5318H3318H5892H2022H6085H1366H8388H1173H7157

10took another turn west of Baalah to Mount Seir, curved around to the northern shoulder of Mount Jearim (that is, Kesalon), descended to Beth Shemesh, and crossed to Timnah.H1366H5437H1173H3220H2022H8165H5674H3802H2022H3297H3693H6828H3381H1053H5674H8553

11The border then went north to the ridge of Ekron, turned toward Shikkeron, passed along to Mount Baalah, and came out at Jabneel. The border ended at the Sea.H1366H3318H3802H6138H6828H1366H8388H7942H5674H2022H1173H3318H2995H8444H1366H3220

12The western border: the coastline of the Great Sea. This is the boundary around the people of Judah for their clans.H3220H1366H1419H3220H1366H1366H1121H3063H5439H4940

13Joshua gave Caleb son of Jephunneh a section among the people of Judah, according to GOD's command. He gave him Kiriath Arba, that is, Hebron. Arba was the ancestor of Anak.H3612H1121H3312H5414H2506H8432H1121H3063H413H6310H3068H3091H7151H704H7153H1H6061H2275

14Caleb drove out three Anakim from Hebron: Sheshai, Ahiman, and Talmai, all descendants of Anak.H3612H3423H7969H1121H6061H8344H289H8526H3211H6061

15He marched up from there against the people of Debir. Debir used to be called Kiriath Sepher.H5927H3427H1688H8034H1688H6440H7158

16Caleb said, "Whoever attacks Kiriath Sepher and takes it, I'll give my daughter Acsah to him as his wife."H3612H559H5221H7158H3920H5414H5915H1323H802

17Othniel son of Kenaz, Caleb's brother, took it; so Caleb gave him his daughter Acsah as his wife.H6274H1121H7073H251H3612H3920H5414H5915H1323H802

18When she arrived she got him to ask for farm land from her father. As she dismounted from her donkey Caleb asked her, "What would you like?"H935H5496H7592H1H7704H6795H2543H3612H559

19She said, "Give me a marriage gift. You've given me desert land; Now give me pools of water!" And he gave her the upper and the lower pools.H559H5414H1293H5414H5045H776H5414H1543H4325H5414H5942H1543H8482H1543
