1 A sorte que coube à tribo dos filhos de Judá segundo as suas famílias, foi até o termo de Edom, até o deserto de Zim para o sul, para a extremidade do lado meridional.

2 O seu termo ao sul foi desde a extremidade do mar Salgado, da baía que olha para o sul:

3 partiu do lado meridional da subida de Acrabim, passou até Zim, subiu pelo sul de Cades-Barnéia, passou por Hezrom, subiu a Adar e deu volta a Carca:

4 passou a Azmom e terminou na torrente do Egito. Os extremos desde termo chegaram ao mar: este será o vosso termo meridional.

5 O termo oriental foi o mar Salgado até a extremidade do Jordão. O termo do lado setentrional foi desde a bacia do mar na extremidade do Jordão:

6 o mesmo subiu a Bete-Hogla e passou do norte de Bete-Arabá; e subiu à pedra de Boã, filho de Rúben:

7 do vale de Acor subiu a Debir, indo sempre para o norte na direção de Gilgal, que está defronte da subida de Adumim, que se acha ao lado meridional do rio: continuou até as águas de En-Semes, e os seus extremos chegaram a En-Rogel:

8 subiu ainda pelo vale do filho de Hinom até a banda meridional dos jebuseus (esta é Jerusalém): subiu ao cume do monte que está fronteiro ao vale de Hinom para o ocidente, que se acha na extremidade do vale dos refains para o norte;

9 e inclinou-se desde o cume do monte até a fonte de Neftoa, indo até as cidades de Efraim; baixou-se para Baalá (esta é Quiriate-Jearim):

10 de Baalá deu volta para o ocidente até o monte Seir, passou ao lado do monte Jearim da banda do norte (este é Quesalom), desceu a Bete-Semes e passou por Timna;

11 estendeu-se até o lado de Ecrom para o norte, e baixando-se para Sicrom, foi ao monte de Baalá e estendeu-se até Jabneel. Os extremos deste termo chegaram ao mar.

12 O termo ocidental foi ao grande mar e suas adjacências. Este é ao redor o termo dos filhos de Judá, segundo as suas famílias.

13 A Calebe, filho de Jefoné, deu uma porção entre os filhos de Judá segundo a ordem de Jeová a Josué, a saber, Quiriate-Arba, o qual Arba era pai de Anaque (esta é Hebrom).

14 Dali expulsou Calebe os três filhos de Anaque: Sesai, Aimã e Talmai, da raça de Anaque.

15 Subiu dali contra os habitantes de Debir: ora o nome de Debir era dantes Quiriate-Sefer.

16 Disse Calebe: Ao homem que ferir a Quiriate-Sefer e a tomar, a esse darei minha filha Acsa por mulher.

17 Tomou-a, pois, Otniel, filho de Quenaz, irmão de Calebe, que lhe deu por mulher sua filha Acsa.

18 Estando ela em caminho para a casa de Otniel, persuadiu-lhe que pedisse ao pai dela um campo. Ela saltou do seu jumento, e Calebe lhe perguntou: Que é o que tens?

19 Respondeu ela: Dá-me uma bênção porquanto me estabeleceste na terra do Neguebe, dá-me fontes de água. Deu-lhe as fontes superiores e as fontes inferiores.

20 Esta é a herança da tribo dos filhos de Judá segundo as suas famílias.

63 Quanto aos jebuseus, que habitavam em Jerusalém, os filhos de Judá não os puderam desapossar; mas os jebuseus ficaram habitando em Jerusalém com os filhos de Judá até o dia de hoje.

1 Now the part of the land marked out for the children of Judah by families, went up to the edge of Edom, as far as the waste land of Zin to the south, to the farthest point of it on the south.

2 Their south limit was from the farthest part of the Salt Sea, from the inlet looking to the south:

3 From there it goes south of the slope up to Akrabbim, and on to Zin, then south past Kadesh-barnea, and on by Hezron and up to Addar, turning in the direction of Karka:

4 Then on to Azmon, ending at the stream of Egypt: and the end of the limit is at the sea; this will be your limit on the south.

5 And the east limit is the Salt Sea as far as the end of Jordan. And the limit of the north part of the land is from the inlet of the sea at the end of Jordan:

6 Then the line goes up to Beth-hoglah, past the north of Beth-arabah, and up to the stone of Bohan, the son of Reuben;

7 Then the line goes up to Debir from the valley of Achor, and so to the north, in the direction of Gilgal, which is opposite the slope up to Adummim, on the south side of the river: and the line goes on to the waters of En-shemesh, ending at En-rogel:

8 Then the line goes up by the valley of the son of Hinnom to the south side of the Jebusite (which is Jerusalem): then up to the top of the mountain in front of the valley of Hinnom to the west, which is at the farthest point of the valley of Rephaim on the north:

9 And the limit is marked out from the top of the mountain to the fountain of the waters of Nephtoah, and out to the towns of Mount Ephron, as far as Baalah (which is Kiriath-jearim):

10 Then turning west, the line goes from Baalah to Mount Seir, and on to the side of Mount Jearim (which is Chesalon) on the north, then down to Beth-shemesh, and on past Timnah:

11 And out to the side of Ekron to the north: then it is marked out to Shikkeron and on to Mount Baalah, ending at Jabneel; the end of the line is at the sea.

12 And the limit on the west is the edge of the Great Sea. This is the line going round the land marked out for the children of Judah, by their families.

13 And to Caleb, the son of Jephunneh, he gave a part among the children of Judah, as the Lord had given orders to Joshua, that is, Kiriath-arba, named after Arba, the father of Anak which is Hebron.

14 And the three sons of Anak, Sheshai and Ahiman and Talmai, the children of Anak, were forced out from there by Caleb.

15 From there he went up against the people of Debir: (now the name of Debir before that was Kiriath-sepher.)

16 And Caleb said, I will give Achsah, my daughter, as wife to the man who overcomes Kiriath-sepher and takes it.

17 And Othniel, the son of Kenaz, Caleb's brother, took it: so he gave him his daughter Achsah for his wife.

18 Now when she came to him, he put into her mind the idea of requesting a field from her father: and she got down from her ass; and Caleb said to her, What is it?

19 And she said, Give me a blessing; because you have put me in dry south-land, now give me springs of water. So he gave her the higher spring and the lower spring.

20 This is the heritage of the tribe of Judah, by their families.
