VULGATA	NEW AMERICAN BIBLE
1 Igitur sors filiorum Judæ per cognationes suas ista fuit : a termino Edom, desertum Sin, contra meridiem, et usque ad extremam partem australis plagæ.	1 The lot for the clans of the Judahite tribe fell in the extreme south toward the boundary of Edom, the desert of Zin in the Negeb.
2 Initium ejus a summitate maris salsissimi, et a lingua ejus, quæ respicit meridiem.	2 The boundary there ran from the bay that forms the southern end of the Salt Sea,
3 Egrediturque contra ascensum Scorpionis, et pertransit in Sina : ascenditque in Cadesbarne, et pervenit in Esron, ascendens ad Addar, et circuiens Carcaa,	3 southward below the pass of Akrabbim, across through Zin, up to a point south of Kadesh-barnea, across to Hezron, and up to Addar; from there, looping around Karka,
4 atque inde pertransiens in Asemona, et perveniens ad torrentem Ægypti : eruntque termini ejus mare magnum. Hic erit finis meridianæ plagæ.	4 it crossed to Azmon and then joined the Wadi of Egypt before coming out at the sea. (This is your southern boundary.)
5 Ab oriente vero erit initium, mare salsissimum usque ad extrema Jordanis : et ea quæ respiciunt ad aquilonem, a lingua maris usque ad eumdem Jordanis fluvium.	5 The eastern boundary was the Salt Sea as far as the mouth of the Jordan.
6 Ascenditque terminus in Beth Hagla, et transit ab aquilone in Beth Araba, ascendens ad lapidem Boën filii Ruben :	6 The northern boundary climbed from the bay where the Jordan meets the sea, up to Beth-hoglah, and ran north of Beth-arabah, up to Eben-Bohan-ben-Reuben.
7 et tendens usque ad terminos Debera de valle Achor, contra aquilonem respiciens Galgala, quæ est ex adverso ascensionis Adommim, ab australi parte torrentis : transitque aquas, quæ vocantur fons solis : et erunt exitus ejus ad fontem Rogel.	7 Thence it climbed to Debir, north of the vale of Achor, in the direction of the Gilgal that faces the pass of Adummim, on the south side of the wadi; from there it crossed to the waters of En-shemesh and emerged at En-rogel.
8 Ascenditque per convallem filii Ennom ex latere Jebusæi ad meridiem, hæc est Jerusalem : et inde se erigens ad verticem montis, qui est contra Geennom ad occidentem in summitate vallis Raphaim contra aquilonem :	8 Climbing again to the Valley of Ben-hinnom on the southern flank of the Jebusites (that is, Jerusalem), the boundary rose to the top of the mountain at the northern end of the Valley of Rephaim, which bounds the Valley of Hinnom on the west.
9 pertransitque a vertice montis usque ad fontem aquæ Nephtoa : et pervenit usque ad vicos montis Ephron : inclinaturque in Baala, quæ est Cariathiarim, id est, urbs silvarum.	9 From the top of the mountain it ran to the fountain of waters of Nephtoah, extended to the cities of Mount Ephron, and continued to Baalah, or Kiriath-jearim.
10 Et circuit de Baala contra occidentem, usque ad montem Seir : transitque juxta latus montis Jarim ad aquilonem in Cheslon : et descendit in Bethsames, transitque in Thamna.	10 From Baalah the boundary curved westward to Mount Seir and passed north of the ridge of Mount Jearim (that is, Chesalon); thence it descended to Beth-shemesh, and ran across to Timnah.
11 Et pervenit contra aquilonem partis Accaron ex latere : inclinaturque Sechrona, et transit montem Baala : pervenitque in Jebneel, et magni maris contra occidentem fine concluditur.	11 It then extended along the northern flank of Ekron, continued through Shikkeron, and across to Mount Baalah, thence to include Jabneel, before it came out at the sea.
12 Hi sunt termini filiorum Juda per circuitum in cognationibus suis.	12 The western boundary was the Great Sea and its coast. This was the complete boundary of the clans of the Judahites.
13 Caleb vero filio Jephone dedit partem in medio filiorum Juda, sicut præceperat ei Dominus : Cariath Arbe patris Enac, ipsa est Hebron.	13 As the LORD had commanded, Joshua gave Caleb, son of Jephunneh, a portion among the Judahites, namely, Kiriath-arba (Arba was the father of Anak), that is, Hebron.
14 Delevitque ex ea Caleb tres filios Enac, Sesai et Ahiman et Tholmai de stirpe Enac.	14 And Caleb drove out from there the three Anakim, the descendants of Anak: Sheshai, Ahiman and Talmai.
15 Atque inde conscendens venit ad habitatores Dabir, quæ prius vocabatur Cariath Sepher, id est, civitas litterarum.	15 From there he marched up against the inhabitants of Debir, which was formerly called Kiriath-sepher.
16 Dixitque Caleb : Qui percusserit Cariath Sepher, et ceperit eam, dabo ei Axam filiam meam uxorem.	16 Caleb said, "I will give my daughter Achsah in marriage to the one who attacks Kiriath-sepher and captures it."
17 Cepitque eam Othoniel filius Cenez frater Caleb junior : deditque ei Axam filiam suam uxorem.	17 Othniel, son of Caleb's brother Kenaz, captured it, and so Caleb gave him his daughter Achsah in marriage.
18 Quæ, cum pergerent simul, suasa est a viro suo ut peteret a patre suo agrum. Suspiravitque ut sedebat in asino : cui Caleb : Quid habes ? inquit.	18 On the day of her marriage to Othniel, she induced him to ask her father for some land. Then, as she alighted from the ass, Caleb asked her, "What is troubling you?"
19 At illa respondit : Da mihi benedictionem : terram australem et arentem dedisti mihi ; junge et irriguam. Dedit itaque ei Caleb irriguum superius et inferius.	19 She answered, "Give me an additional gift! Since you have assigned to me land in the Negeb, give me also pools of water." So he gave her the upper and the lower pools.
20 Hæc est possessio tribus filiorum Juda per cognationes suas.	20 This is the heritage of the clans of the tribe of Judahites:
