15  Na ko te rota o te iwi o nga tama a Hura, he mea whakarite ki o ratou hapu, i tae atu ki te rohe ki a Eroma, ki te koraha o Hini ra ano whaka te tonga, ki te pito whakamutunga ki te tonga.

Ko to ratou rohe ki te tonga kei te pito ra ano o te Moana Tote, kei te matamata e anga ana whaka te tonga:

Na ka rere whaka te tonga o te pinakitanga o Akarapimi, ka haere atu ki Hini, a ka ahu whakarunga i te taha ki te tonga o Kareheparenea, na haere tonu, kei Heterono, ka anga ki runga, ki Arara, na ka whawhe kei Karakaa:

Na haere tonu whaka Atamono, a puta atu ki te awa o Ihipa; na ko nga pakarutanga atu o tena rohe kei te moana: ko te rohe tenei ki a koutou ki te tonga.

A ko te rohe ki te rawhiti ko te Moana Tote tae noa ki te kongutuawa o Horano. A ko te rohe i te taha ki te raki i te kokoru o te moana i te kongutuawa o Horano:

A ka haere te rohe ki runga, ki Petehokora, a haere tonu i te raki o Petearapa; a ka ahu te rohe ki runga, ki te kohatu o Pohana tama a Reupena:

Na haere tonu te rohe ki runga, ki Repiri, atu i te raorao o Akoro, na ka anga atu whaka te raki ki te ritenga o Kirikara, o te wahi i mua mai o te pikitanga ki Arumine, ki tera i te taha tonga o te awa: a i haere tonu te rohe ma nga wai o Enehem ehe, a ko ona pakarutanga atu i Enerokere:

A i rere whakarunga te rohe ra te raorao o te tama a Hinomo ma te taha o to te Iepuhi whaka te tonga, ara o Hiruharama: a i haere tonu te rohe ki te tihi o te maunga e whakapae ana i mua o te raorao o Hinomo, whaka te hauauru, ki tera i te pito r awa o te raorao o Repaima whaka te raki:

A i whakatakotoria atu te rohe i te tihi o te maunga ki te puna wai o Nepetoa, a i puta atu ki nga pa o Maunga Eperona; a i whakatakotoria atu te rohe ki Paara, ara ki Kiriata Tearimi:

10 Katahi ka whawhe atu te rohe i Paara, whaka te hauauru, ki Maunga Heira, a haere tonu atu ki te taha o Maunga Tearimi, ara o Keharono, ki te taha ki te raki, a ka heke ki raro ki Petehemehe, a haere tonu atu ki Timina:

11 A i puta tonu atu te rohe ki te taha o Ekerono, whaka te raki; a i whakatakotoria atu te rohe ki Hikirono, a haere tonu atu ki Maunga Paara, a puta tonu atu ki Iapaneere: a pakaru rawa atu te rohe kei te moana.

12 A ko te rohe ki te hauauru kei te moana nui me tona pareparenga. Ko te rohe tenei ki nga tama a Hura a tawhio noa, ki tenei hapu, ki tenei hapu o ratou.

13 A i hoatu e ia he wahi ki a Karepe, ki te tama a Iepune i roto i nga tama a Hura, he mea ki mai hoki na Ihowa ki a Hohua, ko Kiriata Arapa, ara ko Heperona, ko taua Arapa nei te papa o Anaka.

14 Na ka peia e Karepe i reira nga tama tokotoru a Anaka, a Hehai, a Ahimana, a Taramai, nga tama a Anaka.

15 Na ka haere atu ia i reira ki runga, ki nga tangata o Repiri: na ko te ingoa o Repiri i mua ko Kiriata Hepere.

16 Na ka mea a Karepe, Ko te tangata e patua ai a Kiriata Hepere, a ka horo i a ia, ka hoatu e ahau a Akaha, taku tamahine hei wahine mana.

17 Na ka horo i a Otoniere, i te tama a Kenaha, a te teina o Karepe; a hoatu ana e ia tana tamahine, a Akaha hei wahine mana.

18 A, i a ia e haere atu ana ki a ia, ka whakakikitia e ia te tane kia tonoa he mara i tona papa: a ka marere atu ia ki raro i te kaihe; na ka mea a Karepe ki a ia, He aha tau?

19 Na ka mea ia, Homai he manaaki ki ahau; i te mea kua whakanohoia ahau e koe ki te whenua i te tonga, homai ano hoki etahi puna wai ki ahau. Na hoatu ana e ia ki a ia nga puna o runga me nga puna o raro.

20 Ko te wahi tupu tenei o te iwi o nga tama a Hura, o o ratou hapu.

Allotment for Judah(A)

15 The allotment for the tribe of Judah, according to its clans, extended down to the territory of Edom,(B) to the Desert of Zin(C) in the extreme south.(D)

Their southern boundary started from the bay at the southern end of the Dead Sea,(E) crossed south of Scorpion Pass,(F) continued on to Zin and went over to the south of Kadesh Barnea.(G) Then it ran past Hezron up to Addar and curved around to Karka. It then passed along to Azmon(H) and joined the Wadi of Egypt,(I) ending at the Mediterranean Sea. This is their[a] southern boundary.

The eastern boundary(J) is the Dead Sea(K) as far as the mouth of the Jordan.

The northern boundary(L) started from the bay of the sea at the mouth of the Jordan, went up to Beth Hoglah(M) and continued north of Beth Arabah(N) to the Stone of Bohan(O) son of Reuben. The boundary then went up to Debir(P) from the Valley of Achor(Q) and turned north to Gilgal,(R) which faces the Pass of Adummim south of the gorge. It continued along to the waters of En Shemesh(S) and came out at En Rogel.(T) Then it ran up the Valley of Ben Hinnom(U) along the southern slope of the Jebusite(V) city (that is, Jerusalem(W)). From there it climbed to the top of the hill west of the Hinnom Valley(X) at the northern end of the Valley of Rephaim.(Y) From the hilltop the boundary headed toward the spring of the waters of Nephtoah,(Z) came out at the towns of Mount Ephron and went down toward Baalah(AA) (that is, Kiriath Jearim).(AB) 10 Then it curved westward from Baalah(AC) to Mount Seir,(AD) ran along the northern slope of Mount Jearim (that is, Kesalon), continued down to Beth Shemesh(AE) and crossed to Timnah.(AF) 11 It went to the northern slope of Ekron,(AG) turned toward Shikkeron, passed along to Mount Baalah(AH) and reached Jabneel.(AI) The boundary ended at the sea.

12 The western boundary is the coastline of the Mediterranean Sea.(AJ)

These are the boundaries around the people of Judah by their clans.

13 In accordance with the Lord’s command to him, Joshua gave to Caleb(AK) son of Jephunneh a portion in Judah—Kiriath Arba(AL), that is, Hebron.(AM) (Arba was the forefather of Anak.)(AN) 14 From Hebron Caleb drove out the three Anakites(AO)—Sheshai, Ahiman and Talmai,(AP) the sons of Anak.(AQ) 15 From there he marched against the people living in Debir (formerly called Kiriath Sepher). 16 And Caleb said, “I will give my daughter Aksah(AR) in marriage to the man who attacks and captures Kiriath Sepher.” 17 Othniel(AS) son of Kenaz, Caleb’s brother, took it; so Caleb gave his daughter Aksah to him in marriage.

18 One day when she came to Othniel, she urged him[b] to ask her father for a field. When she got off her donkey, Caleb asked her, “What can I do for you?”

19 She replied, “Do me a special favor. Since you have given me land in the Negev,(AT) give me also springs of water.” So Caleb gave her the upper and lower springs.(AU)
