Judah’s Inheritance

15Now the allotment for the tribe of the descendants of Judah by their clans was in the southernmost region, south of the wilderness of Zin to the border of Edom.H1486H4294H1121H3063H4940H1366H123H4057H6790H5045H7097H8486
2Their southern border began at the tip of the Dead Sea on the south bayH5045H1366H7097H4417H3220H3956H6437H5045
3and went south of the ascent of Akrabbim, proceeded to Zin, ascended to the south of Kadesh-barnea, passed Hezron, ascended to Addar, and turned to Karka.H3318H5045H4610H5674H6790H5927H5045H6947H5674H2696H5927H146H5437H7173
4It proceeded to Azmon and to the Brook of Egypt and so the border ended at the Mediterranean Sea. This is your southern border.H5674H6111H3318H5158H4714H8444H1366H3220H5045H1366
5Now the eastern border was along the Dead Sea to the mouth of the Jordan. The border on the north side was from the bay of the sea at the mouth of the Jordan.H6924H1366H4417H3220H7097H3383H1366H6828H6285H3956H3220H7097H3383
6It ascended to Beth-hoglah, proceeded north of Beth-arabah, and ascended to the stone of Bohan son of Reuben.H1366H5927H1031H5674H6828H1026H1366H5927H68H932H1121H7205
7Then the border ascended to Debir from the Valley of Achor, turning north to the Gilgal that is opposite the ascent of Adummim, which is south of the ravine. The border proceeded to the waters of En-shemesh and ended at En-rogel.H1366H5927H1688H6010H5911H6828H6437H1537H5227H4608H131H5045H5158H1366H5674H4325H5885H8444H5883
8From there the border ascended the Valley of Hinnom to the southern Jebusite slope (that is, Jerusalem) and ascended to the top of the hill that faces the Valley of Hinnom on the west, at the northern end of the Valley of Rephaim.H1366H5927H1516H1121H2011H5045H3802H2983H3389H1366H5927H7218H2022H6440H1516H2011H3220H7097H6010H7497H6828
9From the top of the hill the border curved to the spring of the Waters of Nephtoah, went to the cities of Mount Ephron, and then curved to Baalah (that is, Kiriath-jearim).H1366H8388H7218H2022H4599H4325H5318H3318H5892H2022H6085H1366H8388H1173H7157
10The border turned westward from Baalah to Mount Seir, went to the northern slope of Mount Jearim (that is, Chesalon), descended to Beth-shemesh, and proceeded to Timnah.H1366H5437H1173H3220H2022H8165H5674H3802H2022H3297H3693H6828H3381H1053H5674H8553
11Then the border reached to the slope north of Ekron, curved to Shikkeron, proceeded to Mount Baalah, went to Jabneel, and ended at the Mediterranean Sea.H1366H3318H3802H6138H6828H1366H8388H7942H5674H2022H1173H3318H2995H8444H1366H3220
12Now the western border was the coastline of the Mediterranean Sea. This was the boundary of the descendants of Judah around their clans.H3220H1366H1419H3220H1366H1366H1121H3063H5439H4940

Caleb and Othniel

13He gave Caleb son of Jephunneh [the following] portion among the descendants of Judah based on the LORD's instruction to Joshua: Kiriath-arba (that is, Hebron; Arba was the father of Anak).H3612H1121H3312H5414H2506H8432H1121H3063H413H6310H3068H3091H7151H704H7153H1H6061H2275
14Caleb drove out from there the three sons of Anak: Sheshai, Ahiman, and Talmai, descendants of Anak.H3612H3423H7969H1121H6061H8344H289H8526H3211H6061
15From there he marched against the inhabitants of Debir whose name used to be Kiriath-sepher,H5927H3427H1688H8034H1688H6440H7158
16and Caleb said, "I will give my daughter Achsah as a wife to the one who strikes down and captures Kiriath-sepher."H3612H559H5221H7158H3920H5414H5915H1323H802
17So Othniel son of Caleb's brother, Kenaz, captured it, and Caleb gave his daughter Achsah to him as a wife.H6274H1121H7073H251H3612H3920H5414H5915H1323H802
18When she arrived, she persuaded Othniel to ask her father for a field. As she got off her donkey, Caleb asked her, "What do you want?"H935H5496H7592H1H7704H6795H2543H3612H559
19She replied, "Give me a blessing. Since you have given me land in the Negev, give me the springs of water also." So he gave her the upper and lower springs.H559H5414H1293H5414H5045H776H5414H1543H4325H5414H5942H1543H8482H1543
