* And the lot for the tribe of the children of Judah after their families came by the border of Edom , with the wilderness of Zin , southward , as the uttermost southern boundary . * And their southern boundary was from the end of the salt sea , from the bay that bendeth southward : * And it went out to the south of the heights of ‘Akrabbim , and passed along to Zin , and ascended up on the south side unto Kadesh –barnea , and passed along to Chezron , and went up to Adar , and fetched a compass to Karka ’; * And it passed on toward ‘Azmon , and went out unto the river of Egypt ; and the terminations of the boundary were at the sea : this shall be your southern boundary . * And the east boundary was the salt sea , unto the end of the Jordan . And the boundary in the north quarter was from the bay of the sea at the end of the Jordan ; * And the boundary went up to Beth –choglah , and passed along by the north of Beth ’arabah ; and the boundary went up to Ebenbohan the son of Reuben ; * And the boundary went up toward Debir from the Valley of ‘Achor , and at the north it bent toward Gilgal , that is opposite the heights of Adummim , which is on the south side of the valley ; and the boundary passed toward the waters of ‘En –shemesh , and its terminations were at En –rogel ; * And the boundary went up to the valley of the son of Hinnom unto the south side of the Jebusite , the same is Jerusalem ; and the boundary went up to the top of the mount that lieth before the valley of Hinnom westward , which is at the end of the valley of Rephaim northward ; * And the boundary extended from the top of the mount unto the spring of the waters of Nephtoach , and went out to the cities of mount ‘Ephron ; and the boundary extended to Ba ’alah , which is Kiryath –ye ’arim ; * And the boundary compassed from Ba ’alah westward unto mount Seir , and passed along unto the side of mount Ye ’arim , which is Kessalon , on the north side , and went down to Beth –shemesh , and passed on to Timnah ; * And the boundary went out unto the side of ‘Ekron northward ; and the boundary extended to Shikron , and passed along to the mount of Ba ’alah , and went out unto Yabneel ; and the terminations of the boundary were at the sea . * And the west boundary was by the great sea , and the coast thereof . This is the boundary of the children of Judah round about according to their families . * And unto Caleb the son of Yephunneh he gave as a portion among the children of Judah , according to the order of the Lord to Joshua , Kiryath –arba ’ the father of ‘Anak , which is Hebron . * And Caleb drove out from there the three sons of ‘Anak , Sheshai , and Achiman , and Talmai , the children of ‘Anak . * And he went up from there to the inhabitants of Debir ; and the name of Debir before was Kiryath –sepher . * And Caleb said , He that will smite Kiryath –sepher , and capture it , to him will I give ‘Achsah my daughter for wife . * And ‘Othniel the son of Kenaz , the brother of Caleb , captured it ; and he gave him ‘Achsah his daughter for wife . * And it came to pass , as she came thither , that she persuaded him to ask of her father a field : and she alighted from her ass ; and Caleb said unto her , What aileth thee ? * And she said , Give me a blessing ; for a dry land hast thou given me : give me then also springs of water . And he gave her the upper springs and the lower springs . * This is the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Judah according to their families . * And the cities of the boundary line of the tribe of the children of Judah toward the border of Edom , on the south , were Kabzeel , and ‘Eder , and Yagur , * And Kinah , and Dimonah , and ‘Ad ’adah , * And Kedesh , and Chazor , and Yithnan , * Ziph , and Telem , and Be ’aloth , * And Chazor –chadattah , and Keriyoth –chezron , which is Chazor , * Amam , and Shema ’, and Moladah , * And Chazar –gaddah , and Cheshmon , and Beth –palet , * And Chazar –shual , and Beer –sheba , and Bizyotheyah , * Ba ’alah , and ‘Iyim , and ‘Azem , * And Eltolad , and Kessil , and Chormah , * And Ziklag , and Madmannah , and Sansannah , * And Lebaoth , and Shilchim , and ‘Ayin , and Rimmon : in all twenty and nine cities , with their villages . * And in the lowlands , Eshtaol , and Zor ’ah , and Ashnah . * And Zanoach , and ‘En –gannim , Tappuach , and ‘Enam , * Yarmuth , and ‘Adullam , Sochoh , and ‘Azekah , * And Sha ’arayim , and ‘Adithayim , and Gederah , and Gede –rothayim : fourteen cities with their villages . * Zenan , and Chadashah , and Migdalgad , * And Dil ’an , and Mizpeh , and Yoktheel , * Lachish , and Bozkath , and ‘Eglon , * And Cabbon , and Lachmass , and Kithlish , * And Gederoth , Beth –dagon , and Na ’amah , and Makkedah : sixteen cities with their villages . * Libnah , and ‘Ether , and ‘Ashan , * And Yiphtach , and Ashnah , and Nezib , * And Ke ’ilah , and Achzib , and Mareshah : nine cities with their villages . * ‘Ekron , with its towns and its villages : * From ‘Ekron even unto the sea , all that lay alongside of Ashdod , with their villages . * Ashdod with its towns and its villages , Gazzah , with its towns and its villages , up to the brook of Egypt , and the great sea , and its territory . * And in the mountains , Shamir , and Yattir , and Sochoh , * And Dannah and Kiryath –sannah , which is Debir , * And ‘Anab , and Eshtemoh , and ‘Anim . * And Goshen , and Cholon , and Giloh : eleven cities with their villages . * Arab , and Dumah , and Esh ’an , * And Vanum , and Beth –tappuach , and Aphekah , * And Chumtah , and Kiryath –arba ’, which is Hebron , and Zi ’or : nine cities with their villages . * Ma ’on , Carmel , and Ziph , and Yutah , * And Yizre ’el , and Yokde ’am , and Zanoach , * Kayin , Gib ’ah , and Timnah : ten cities with their villages . * Chatchul , Beth –zur , and Gedor , * And Ma ’arath , and Beth –’anoth , and Eltekon : six cities with their village . * Kiryath –baal , which is Kiryath –ye ’arim , and Rabbah ; two cities with their villages . * In the wilderness , Beth –ha ’arabah , Middin , and Sechachah , * And Nibshan , and ‘Ir –hammelach , and ‘En –gedi : six cities with their villages . * As for the Jebusites the inhabitants of Jerusalem , these the children of Judah could not drive out ; but the Jebusites dwelt with the children of Judah at Jerusalem , even unto this day .
