Joshua 15:10-57

10The borderH1366 turnedH5437 from BaalahH1173 westwardH3220 to MountH2022 SeirH8165, and continuedH5674 to the slopeH3802 of MountH2022 JearimH3297 on the northH6828 (that is, ChesalonH3693), and wentH3381 downH3381 to Beth-shemeshH1053 and continuedH5674 throughH5674 1TimnahH8553. 11Then the borderH1366 proceededH3318 to the sideH3802 of EkronH6138 northwardH6828. And the borderH1366 turnedH8388 to ShikkeronH7942 and continuedH5674 to MountH2022 BaalahH1173 and proceededH3318 to JabneelH2995, and the 2borderH1366 endedH1961H8444 at the seaH3220. 12The westernH3220 borderH1366 was 3at the GreatH1419 SeaH3220, even its 4coastlineH1366. ThisH2088 is the borderH1366 aroundH5439 the sonsH1121 of JudahH3063 according to their familiesH4940.

13Now 5he gaveH5414 to CalebH3612 the sonH1121 of JephunnehH3312 a portionH2506 6amongH8432 the sonsH1121 of JudahH3063, inH413 accordanceH413 withH413 the 7commandH6310 of the LordH3068 to JoshuaH3091, namely, 8Kiriath-arbaH7153, Arba being the fatherH1 of AnakH6061 (that is, HebronH2275). 14And 9CalebH3612 10droveH3423 outH3423 from thereH8033 the threeH7969 11sonsH1121 of AnakH6061: SheshaiH8344, AhimanH289, and TalmaiH8526, the childrenH3211 of AnakH6061. 15Then 12he wentH5927 upH5927 from thereH8033 againstH413 the inhabitantsH3427 of DebirH1688; now the nameH8034 of DebirH1688 previouslyH6440 was Kiriath-sepherH7158. 16And CalebH3612 saidH559, “The one whoH834 13attacksH5221 Kiriath-sepherH7158 and capturesH3920 it, 14I will giveH5414 him AchsahH5915 my daughterH1323 as a wifeH802.” 1715OthnielH6274 the sonH1121 of KenazH7073, the brotherH251 of CalebH3612, capturedH3920 it; so he gaveH5414 him AchsahH5915 his daughterH1323 as a wifeH802. 1816And it happenedH1961 that when she cameH935 to him, she incitedH5496 him to askH7592 her fatherH1 for a fieldH7704. So she dismountedH6795 from the donkeyH2543, and CalebH3612 saidH559 to her, “WhatH4100 do you want?” 19Then she saidH559, “GiveH5414 me a blessingH1293; sinceH3588 you have givenH5414 me the landH776 of the 17NegevH5045, giveH5414 me springsH1543 of waterH4325 also.” So he gaveH5414 her the upperH5942 springsH1543 and the lowerH8482 springsH1543.

20ThisH2088 is the inheritanceH5159 of the tribeH4294 of the sonsH1121 of JudahH3063 according to their familiesH4940.

21Now the citiesH5892 at the extremityH7097 of the tribeH4294 of the sonsH1121 of JudahH3063 towardH413 the borderH1366 of EdomH112 in the southH5045 were KabzeelH6909, 18EderH5740, and JagurH3017, 22KinahH7016, DimonahH1776, and AdadahH5735, 23KedeshH6943, HazorH2674, and IthnanH3497, 24ZiphH2128, TelemH2928, and BealothH1175, 25Hazor-hadattahH2675, Kerioth-hezronH7152H2696 (that is, HazorH2674), 26AmamH538, ShemaH8090, and MoladahH4137, 27Hazar-gaddahH2693, HeshmonH2829, and Beth-peletH1046, 28Hazar-shualH2705, 19BeershebaH884, and BiziothiahH964, 29BaalahH1173, IimH5864, and EzemH6107, 30EltoladH513, ChesilH3686, and HormahH2767, 3120ZiklagH6860, MadmannahH4089, and SansannahH5578, 32LebaothH3822, ShilhimH7978, AinH5871, and RimmonH7417; in allH3605, twenty-nineH6242H8672 citiesH5892 with their villagesH2691.
