Liber Iosue

Iosue, chapter 15, Vulgate and King James Version

Chapter 15 Vulgate

   1 Sors tribus filiorum Iudae per cognationes suas ista fuit: usque ad terminum Edom, ad desertum Sin contra Nageb, usque ad extremam partem australis plagae.
   2 Terminus eius meridionalis a summitate maris Salsissimi et a lingua eius, quae respicit meridiem.
   3 Egrediturque contra ascensum Acrabbim et pertransit in Sin ascenditque in meridie Cadesbarne et pervenit in Esron ascendens ad Addar et vertitur in Carca;
   4 atque inde pertransiens in Asemona pervenit ad torrentem Aegypti; eruntque exitus eius ad mare Magnum: hic erit vobis finis meridianae plagae.
   5 Ab oriente vero terminus erit mare Salsissimum usque ad extrema Iordanis. Terminus aquilonis a lingua maris et ab extremis Iordanis
   6 ascendit in Bethagla et transit ab aquilone Betharaba ascendens ad lapidem Boen filii Ruben
   7 et ascendens ad Dabir de valle Achor et contra aquilonem vergens ad Galiloth (hi sunt circuli), qui sunt ex adverso ascensionis Adommim, quae est ab australi parte torrentis, transit ad aquas, quae vocantur fons Solis, et erunt exitus eius ad fontem Rogel.
   8 Ascenditque per convallem Benennom ex latere Iebusaei ad meridiem "haec est Ierusalem "et inde se erigens ad verticem montis, qui est contra vallem Ennom ad occidentem in extrema parte vallis Raphaim contra aquilonem;
   9 pertransitque a vertice montis usque ad fontem aquae Nephtoa et pervenit usque ad vicos montis Ephron inclinaturque in Baala, quae est Cariathiarim.
   10 Et vergit de Baala contra occidentem usque ad montem Seir transitque iuxta latus montis Iarim ad aquilonem "id est Cheslon "et descendit in Bethsames transitque in Thamna
   11 et pervenit ad latus septentrionale Accaron inclinaturque in Sechron et transit montem Baala pervenitque in Iebneel et finitur mari. Terminus occidentalis est mare Magnum.
   12 Hi sunt termini filiorum Iudae per circuitum in cognationibus suis.
   13 Chaleb vero filio Iephonne dedit partem in medio filiorum Iudae, sicut praeceperat Dominus Iosue: Cariatharbe (id est civitas Arbe), patris Enac, ipsa est Hebron.
   14 Delevitque ex ea Chaleb tres filios Enac: Sesai et Ahiman et Tholmai de stirpe Enac.
   15 Atque inde conscendens venit ad habitatores Dabir, quae prius vocabatur Cariathsepher (id est civitas Litterarum).
   16 Dixitque Chaleb: "Qui percusserit Cariathsepher et ceperit eam, dabo illi Axam filiam meam uxorem"
   17 Cepitque eam Othoniel filius Cenez frater Chaleb, deditque ei Axam filiam suam uxorem.
   18 Quae cum veniret, suasit viro suo, ut peteret a patre suo agrum; descenditque de asino. Cui Chaleb: "Quid habes?" inquit.
   19 At illa respondit: "Da mihi benedictionem. Terram Nageb arentem dedisti mihi; iunge et irriguam" Dedit itaque ei Chaleb irriguum superius et inferius.
   20 Haec est possessio tribus filiorum Iudae per cognationes suas.

King James Version

   1 This then was the lot of the tribe of the children of Judah by their families; even to the border of Edom the wilderness of Zin southward was the uttermost part of the south coast.
   2 And their south border was from the shore of the salt sea, from the bay that looketh southward:
   3 And it went out to the south side to Maaleh-acrabbim, and passed along to Zin, and ascended up on the south side unto Kadesh-barnea, and passed along to Hezron, and went up to Adar, and fetched a compass to Karkaa:
   4 From thence it passed toward Azmon, and went out unto the river of Egypt; and the goings out of that coast were at the sea: this shall be your south coast.
   5 And the east border was the salt sea, even unto the end of Jordan. And their border in the north quarter was from the bay of the sea at the uttermost part of Jordan:
   6 And the border went up to Beth-hogla, and passed along by the north of Beth-arabah; and the border went up to the stone of Bohan the son of Reuben:
   7 And the border went up toward Debir from the valley of Achor, and so northward, looking toward Gilgal, that is before the going up to Adummim, which is on the south side of the river: and the border passed toward the waters of En-shemesh, and the goings out thereof were at En-rogel:
   8 And the border went up by the valley of the son of Hinnom unto the south side of the Jebusite; the same is Jerusalem: and the border went up to the top of the mountain that lieth before the valley of Hinnom westward, which is at the end of the valley of the giants northward:
   9 And the border was drawn from the top of the hill unto the fountain of the water of Nephtoah, and went out to the cities of mount Ephron; and the border was drawn to Baalah, which is Kirjath-jearim:
   10 And the border compassed from Baalah westward unto mount Seir, and passed along unto the side of mount Jearim, which is Chesalon, on the north side, and went down to Beth-shemesh, and passed on to Timnah:
   11 And the border went out unto the side of Ekron northward: and the border was drawn to Shicron, and passed along to mount Baalah, and went out unto Jabneel; and the goings out of the border were at the sea.
   12 And the west border was to the great sea, and the coast thereof. This is the coast of the children of Judah round about according to their families.
   13 ¶ And unto Caleb the son of Jephunneh he gave a part among the children of Judah, according to the commandment of the LORD to Joshua, even the city of Arba the father of Anak, which city is Hebron.
   14 And Caleb drove thence the three sons of Anak, Sheshai, and Ahiman, and Talmai, the children of Anak.
   15 And he went up thence to the inhabitants of Debir: and the name of Debir before was Kirjath-sepher.
   16 ¶ And Caleb said, He that smiteth Kirjath-sepher, and taketh it, to him will I give Achsah my daughter to wife.
   17 And Othniel the son of Kenaz, the brother of Caleb, took it: and he gave him Achsah his daughter to wife.
   18 And it came to pass, as she came unto him, that she moved him to ask of her father a field: and she lighted off her ass; and Caleb said unto her, What wouldest thou?
   19 Who answered, Give me a blessing; for thou hast given me a south land; give me also springs of water. And he gave her the upper springs, and the nether springs.
   20 This is the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Judah according to their families.
