BSB

1 Now the allotment for the clans of the tribe of Judah extended to the border of Edom, to the Wilderness of Zin at the extreme southern boundary:

NAV

1 وَهَذِهِ هِيَ قُرْعَةُ سِبْطِ يَهُوذَا بِحَسَبِ عَشَائِرِهِمْ: امْتَدَّتْ حُدُودُهُمُ الْجَنُوبِيَّةُ إِلَى آخِرِ أَطْرَافِ صَحْرَاءِ صِينَ الْمُتَاخِمَةِ لِحُدُودِ أَدُومَ.

BSB

2 Their southern border started at the bay on the southern tip of the Salt Sea,

NAV

2 كَمَا بَدَأَتْ حُدُودُهُمُ الْجَنُوبِيَّةُ مِنَ الْخَلِيجِ فِي أَقْصَى الطَّرَفِ الْجَنُوبِيِّ لِلْبَحْرِ الْمَيِّتِ.

BSB

3 proceeded south of the Ascent of Akrabbim, continued on to Zin, went over to the south of Kadesh-barnea, ran past Hezron up to Addar, and curved toward Karka.

NAV

3 مَارَّةً بِعَقَبَةِ عَقْرِبِّيمَ جَنُوباً، وَعَابِرَةً صَحْرَاءَ صِينَ، حَتَّى تَبْلُغَ جَنُوبِيَّ قَادَشَ بَرْنِيعَ، وَتَتَّجِهُ إِلَى حَصْرُونَ، وَمِنْهَا صُعُوداً إِلَى أَدَّارَ، ثُمَّ تَلْتَفُّ نَحْوَ قَرْقَعَ،

BSB

4 It proceeded to Azmon, joined the Brook of Egypt, and ended at the Sea. This was their southern border.

NAV

4 وَمِنْهَا تَعْبُرُ إِلَى عَصْمُونَ حَتَّى تَصِلَ إِلَى وَادِي مِصْرَ، حَيْثُ تَنْتَهِي عِنْدَ الْبَحْرِ. هَذِهِ هِيَ حُدُودُهُمُ الْجَنُوبِيَّةُ.

BSB

5 The eastern border was the Salt Sea as far as the mouth of the Jordan. The northern border started from the bay of the sea at the mouth of the Jordan,

NAV

5 أَمَّا الْحُدُودُ الشَّرْقِيَّةُ فَهِيَ الْبَحْرُ الْمَيِّتُ إِلَى طَرَفِ نَهْرِ الأُرْدُنِّ. وتَبْدَأُ الْحُدُودُ الشِّمَالِيَّةُ مِنْ لِسَانِ الْبَحْرِ مِنْ أَقْصَى الأُرْدُنِّ،

BSB

6 went up to Beth-hoglah, proceeded north of Beth-arabah, and went up to the Stone of Bohan son of Reuben.

NAV

6 وَتَتَّجِهُ إِلَى بَيْتِ حُجْلَةَ عُبُوراً مِنْ شِمَالِيِّ بَيْتِ عَرَبَةَ، وَصُعُوداً إِلَى حَجَرِ بُوهَنَ بْنِ رَأُوبَيْنَ.

BSB

7 Then the border went up to Debir from the Valley of Achor, turning north to Gilgal, which faces the Ascent of Adummim south of the ravine. It continued along the waters of En-shemesh and came out at En-rogel.

NAV

7 وَتُتَابِعُ امْتِدَادَهَا إِلَى دَبِيرَ مِنْ وَادِي عَخُورَ مُتَّجِهَةً شِمَالاً إِلَى الْجِلْجَالِ الَّتِي مُقَابِلَ عَقَبَةِ أَدُمِّيمَ جَنُوبِيَّ الْوَادِي، وَتَسْتَمِرُّ عَلَى طُولِ مِيَاهِ عَيْنِ شَمْسٍ حَتَّى تَنْتَهِيَ بِعَيْنِ رُوجَلَ.

BSB

8 From there the border went up the Valley of Ben-hinnom along the southern slope of the Jebusites (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.

NAV

8 ثُمَّ تَصْعَدُ بِاتِّجَاهِ وَادِي ابْنِ هِنُّومَ عَلَى مُحَاذَاةِ الْمُنْحَدَرِ الْجَنُوبِيِّ لأُورُشَلِيمَ مَدِينَةِ الْيَبُوسِيِّينَ، وَتُتَابِعُ صُعُودَهَا إِلَى قِمَّةِ الْجَبَلِ قُبَالَةَ وَادِي هِنُّومَ غَرْباً، الْوَاقِعِ فِي طَرَفِ وَادِي الرَّفَائِيِّينَ شِمَالاً.

BSB

9 From the hilltop the border curved to the spring of the Waters of Nephtoah, proceeded to the cities of Mount Ephron, and then bent around toward Baalah (that is, Kiriath-jearim).

NAV

9 ثُمَّ تَمْتَدُّ هَذِهِ الْحُدُودُ مِنْ قِمَّةِ الْجَبَلِ إِلَى مَنْبَعِ مِيَاهِ نَفْتُوحَ حَتَّى تَصِلَ إِلَى مُدُنِ جَبَلِ عِفْرُونَ فَتَبْلُغَ بَعَلَةَ الَّتِي هِيَ قَرْيَةُ يَعَارِيمَ.

BSB

10 The border curled westward from Baalah to Mount Seir, ran along the northern slope of Mount Jearim (that is, Chesalon), went down to Beth-shemesh, and crossed to Timnah.

NAV

10 وَتَتَّجِهُ مِنْ بَعَلَةَ غَرْباً إِلَى جَبَلِ سِعِيرَ عُبُوراً إِلَى جَانِبِ جَبَلِ يَعَارِيمَ شِمَالاً الَّتِي هِيَ كَسَالُونَ، ثُمَّ تَنْحَدِرُ نَحْوَ بَيْتِ شَمْسٍ مُرُوراً بِتِمْنَةَ،

BSB

11 Then it went out to the northern slope of Ekron, curved toward Shikkeron, proceeded to Mount Baalah, went on to Jabneel, and ended at the Sea.

NAV

11 وَمِنْهَا تَخْرُجُ إِلَى جَانِبِ عِقْرُونَ نَحْوَ الشِّمَالِ وَتَمْتَدُّ إِلَى شَكْرُونَ فَجَبَلِ الْبَعَلَةِ حَتَّى تَبْلُغَ يَبْنِئِيلَ وَتَنْتَهِيَ عِنْدَ الْبَحْرِ.

BSB

12 And the western border was the coastline of the Great Sea. These are the boundaries around the clans of the descendants of Judah.

NAV

12 أَمَّا الْحُدُودُ الْغَرْبِيَّةُ فَهِيَ شَوَاطِئُ الْبَحْرِ الْمُتَوَسِّطِ. هَذِهِ هِيَ حُدُودُ أَرْضِ سِبْطِ يَهُوذَا مِنْ جَمِيعِ جِهَاتِهَا بِحَسَبِ عَشَائِرِهِمْ.

BSB

13 According to the LORD’s command to him, Joshua gave Caleb son of Jephunneh a portion among the sons of Judah—Kiriath-arba, that is, Hebron. (Arba was the forefather of Anak.)

NAV

13 وَوَهَبَ يَشُوعُ بِمُقْتَضَى أَمْرِ الرَّبِّ كَالَبَ بْنَ يَفُنَّةَ مِلْكاً قَرْيَةَ أَرْبَعَ أَبِي عَنَاقَ وَهِيَ حَبْرُونُ الْوَاقِعَةُ فِي وَسَطِ أَبْنَاءِ يَهُوذَا.

BSB

14 And Caleb drove out from there the three sons of Anak—the descendants of Sheshai, Ahiman, and Talmai, the children of Anak.

NAV

14 فَطَرَدَ كَالَبُ مِنْهَا الْعَنَاقِيِّينَ الثَّلاثَةَ: شِيشَايَ وَأَخِيمَانَ وَتَلْمَايَ مِنْ ذُرِّيَّةِ عَنَاقَ.

BSB

15 From there he marched against the inhabitants of Debir (formerly known as Kiriath-sepher).

NAV

15 وَتَقَدَّمَ مِنْ هُنَاكَ لِمُحَارَبَةِ أَهْلِ دَبِيرَ. وَكَانَتْ دَبِيرُ تُدْعَى قَبْلاً قَرْيَةَ سِفْرٍ.

BSB

16 And Caleb said, “To the man who strikes down Kiriath-sepher and captures it, I will give my daughter Acsah in marriage.”

NAV

16 فَقَالَ كَالَبُ: «مَنْ يُهَاجِمُ قَرْيَةَ سِفْرٍ وَيَسْتَوْلِي عَلَيْهَا، أُزَوِّجُهُ ابْنَتِي عَكْسَةَ»

BSB

17 So Othniel son of Caleb’s brother Kenaz captured the city, and Caleb gave his daughter Acsah to him in marriage.

NAV

17 فَاسْتَوْلَى عَلَيْهَا عُثْنِيئِيلُ بْنُ قَنَازَ أَخُو كَالَبَ، فَزَوَّجَهُ ابْنَتَهُ عَكْسَةَ.

BSB

18 One day Acsah came to Othniel and urged him to ask her father for a field. When she got off her donkey, Caleb asked her, “What do you desire?”

NAV

18 وَعِنْدَمَا أَقْبَلَتْ عَلَيْهِ حَثَّتْهُ عَلَى طَلَبِ حَقْلٍ مِنْ أَبِيهَا، فَتَرَجَّلَتْ عَنِ الْحِمَارِ، فَسَأَلَهَا كَالَبُ: «مَالَكِ؟»

BSB

19 “Give me a blessing,” she answered. “Since you have given me land in the Negev, give me springs of water as well.” So Caleb gave her both the upper and lower springs.

NAV

19 فَأَجَابَتْهُ: «اصْنَعْ مَعِي مَعْرُوفاً، فَأَنْتَ قَدْ وَهَبْتَنِي أَرْضاً قَاحِلَةً، فَأَعْطِنِي أَيْضاً يَنَابِيعَ مَاءٍ». فَأَعْطَاهَا السَّوَاقِيَ الْعُلْيَا وَالسَّوَاقِيَ السُّفْلَى.

BSB

20 This is the inheritance of the clans of the tribe of Judah.
