Joshua 15:11-45

11And the borderH1366 went outH3318 unto the sideH3802 of EkronH6138 northwardH6828: and the borderH1366 was drawnH8388 to ShicronH7942, and passed alongH5674 to mountH2022 BaalahH1173, and went outH3318 unto JabneelH2995; and the goings outH8444 of the borderH1366 were at the seaH3220. 12And the westH3220 borderH1366 was to the greatH1419 seaH3220, and the coastH1366 thereof. This is the coastH1366 of the childrenH1121 of JudahH3063 round aboutH5439 according to their familiesH4940.

13And unto CalebH3612 the sonH1121 of JephunnehH3312 he gaveH5414 a partH2506 amongH8432 the childrenH1121 of JudahH3063, accordingH413 to the commandmentH6310 of YhwhH3068 to JoshuaH3091, even the cityH7151 of ArbaH7153H704 the fatherH1 of AnakH6061, which city is HebronH2275.1 14And CalebH3612 droveH3423 thence the threeH7969 sonsH1121 of AnakH6061, SheshaiH8344, and AhimanH289, and TalmaiH8526, the childrenH3211 of AnakH6061. 15And he went upH5927 thence to the inhabitantsH3427 of DebirH1688: and the nameH8034 of DebirH1688 beforeH6440 was Kirjath–sepherH7158.

16And CalebH3612 saidH559, He that smitethH5221 Kirjath–sepherH7158, and takethH3920 it, to him will I giveH5414 AchsahH5915 my daughterH1323 to wifeH802. 17And OthnielH6274 the sonH1121 of KenazH7073, the brotherH251 of CalebH3612, tookH3920 it: and he gaveH5414 him AchsahH5915 his daughterH1323 to wifeH802. 18And it came to pass, as she cameH935 unto him, that she movedH5496 him to askH7592 of her fatherH1 a fieldH7704: and she lighted offH6795 her donkeyH2543; and CalebH3612 saidH559 unto her, What wouldest thou? 19Who answeredH559, GiveH5414 me a blessingH1293; for thou hast givenH5414 me a southH5045 landH776; giveH5414 me also springsH1543 of waterH4325. And he gaveH5414 her the upperH5942 springsH1543, and the netherH8482 springsH1543. 20This is the inheritanceH5159 of the tribeH4294 of the childrenH1121 of JudahH3063 according to their familiesH4940. 21And the uttermostH7097 citiesH5892 of the tribeH4294 of the childrenH1121 of JudahH3063 toward the coastH1366 of EdomH123 southwardH5045 were KabzeelH6909, and EderH5740, and JagurH3017, 22And KinahH7016, and DimonahH1776, and AdadahH5735, 23And KedeshH6943, and HazorH2674, and IthnanH3497, 24ZiphH2128, and TelemH2928, and BealothH1175, 25And HazorH2674, HadattahH2675, and KeriothH7152, and HezronH2696, which is HazorH2674, 26AmamH538, and ShemaH8090, and MoladahH4137, 27And Hazar–gaddahH2693, and HeshmonH2829, and Beth–paletH1046, 28And Hazar–shualH2705, and Beer–shebaH884, and BizjothjahH964, 29BaalahH1173, and IimH5864, and AzemH6107, 30And EltoladH513, and ChesilH3686, and HormahH2767, 31And ZiklagH6860, and MadmannahH4089, and SansannahH5578, 32And LebaothH3822, and ShilhimH7978, and AinH5871, and RimmonH7417: all the citiesH5892 are twentyH6242 and nineH8672, with their villagesH2691: 33And in the valleyH8219, EshtaolH847, and ZoreahH6881, and AshnahH823, 34And ZanoahH2182, and En–gannimH5873, TappuahH8599, and EnamH5879, 35JarmuthH3412, and AdullamH5725, SocohH7755, and AzekahH5825, 36And SharaimH8189, and AdithaimH5723, and GederahH1449, and GederothaimH1453; fourteenH6240H702 citiesH5892 with their villagesH2691:2 37ZenanH6799, and HadashahH2322, and Migdal–gadH4028, 38And DileanH1810, and MizpehH4708, and JoktheelH3371, 39LachishH3923, and BozkathH1218, and EglonH5700, 40And CabbonH3522, and LahmamH3903, and KithlishH3798, 41And GederothH1450, Beth–dagonH1016, and NaamahH5279, and MakkedahH4719; sixteenH6240H8337 citiesH5892 with their villagesH2691: 42LibnahH3841, and EtherH6281, and AshanH6228, 43And JiphtahH3316, and AshnahH823, and NezibH5334, 44And KeilahH7084, and AchzibH392, and MareshahH4762; nineH8672 citiesH5892 with their villagesH2691: 45EkronH6138, with her townsH1323 and her villagesH2691:
