1Pea ko e tofiʻa eni ʻoe faʻahinga ʻoe fānau ʻa Siuta ʻi honau ngaahi faʻahinga; ʻio, ʻo ʻalu ki he ngataʻanga ʻo ʻItomi ʻi he toafa ʻo Sini ʻi he potu tonga, ko hono ngataʻanga ʻaupito ʻoe potu tonga.
1Now the allotment for the clans of the tribe of Judah extended to the border of Edom, to the Wilderness of Zin at the extreme southern boundary:
2Pea ko honau ngataʻanga ʻi he potu tonga naʻe fai mei he matātahi kona, mei he potu tahi ki kō ʻoku hanga ki tonga:
2Their southern border started at the bay on the southern tip of the Salt Sea,
3Pea naʻe ʻalu atu ai ia ʻi he potu tonga ki Meali-ʻAkilapimi, pea ʻalu ai ki Sini, pea ʻalu hake ai ʻi he potu tonga ki Ketesi-Pania, pea ʻalu ai ki Heseloni, pea ʻalu ai ki ʻAta, pea ʻalu fakatakamilo ki Kalika:
3proceeded south of the Ascent of Akrabbim, continued on to Zin, went over to the south of Kadesh-barnea, ran past Hezron up to Addar, and curved toward Karka.
4Pea naʻe ʻalu atu ia ki ʻAsimoni, ʻo mole ai ki he vaitafe ʻo ʻIsipite: pea ko e ngaahi ngataʻanga ʻoe mata fonua ko ia, ko e tahi: ko homou ngataʻanga fonua eni ki tonga.
4It proceeded to Azmon, joined the Brook of Egypt, and ended at the Sea. This was their southern border.
5Pea ko hono ngataʻanga ki he potu hahake ko e tahi kona, ʻio, ʻo aʻu ki hono ngataʻanga ʻo Soatani. Pea ko honau ngataʻanga ʻi he potu tokelau, naʻe fai mei he potu ki kō ʻi he tahi ʻi hono potu mamaʻo atu ʻo Soatani:
5The eastern border was the Salt Sea as far as the mouth of the Jordan. The northern border started from the bay of the sea at the mouth of the Jordan,
6Pea naʻe ʻalu ai hono ngataʻanga ki Pete-Hokela, pea ʻalu ai ʻo ofi ki he potu tokelau ʻo Pete-ʻAlapa; pea ʻalu hono ngataʻanga ki he maka ʻo Pohani ko e foha ʻo Lupeni:
6went up to Beth-hoglah, proceeded north of Beth-arabah, and went up to the Stone of Bohan son of Reuben.
7Pea naʻe ʻalu hono ngataʻanga ki Tipa mei he teleʻa ʻo Ekoa, ki he feituʻu tokelau, ʻo hanga atu ki Kilikali, ʻo feʻunga mo e hakeʻanga ki Etumima, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he potu tonga ʻoe vaitafe: pea naʻe ʻalu ai hono ngataʻanga ki he ngaahi vai ʻo Eni-Semesi, pea ko hono ʻaluʻanga fakangatangata ʻo ia naʻe ʻi Eni-Lokeli;
7Then the border went up to Debir from the Valley of Achor, turning north to Gilgal, which faces the Ascent of Adummim south of the ravine. It continued along the waters of En-shemesh and came out at En-rogel.
8Pea naʻe ʻalu hake hono ngataʻanga ki he teleʻa ʻae foha ʻo Henomi ki hono potu tonga ʻoe kau Sepusi; pea ko Selūsalema ia: pea naʻe ʻalu hake ai hono ngataʻanga ki he tumutumu ʻoe moʻunga ʻaia ʻoku tuʻu ʻi he mata teleʻa ʻo Henomi ki lulunga, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi hono ngataʻanga ʻoe teleʻa ʻoe kakai lalahi ki tokelau:
8From there the border went up the Valley of Hinnom along the southern slope of the Jebusites (that is, Jerusalem) and ascended to the top of the hill that faces the Valley of Hinnom on the west, at the northern end of the Valley of Rephaim.
9Pea naʻe fua hono ngataʻanga mei he moʻunga ʻo aʻu ki he matavai ʻo Nefitoa, pea mole atu ia ki he ngaahi kolo ʻoe moʻunga ko ʻEfilone; pea naʻe fua atu hono ngataʻanga ki Peala, ʻaia ko Kesa-Sialimi.
9From the hilltop the border curved to the spring of the Waters of Nephtoah, proceeded to the cities of Mount Ephron, and then bent around toward Baalah (that is, Kiriath-jearim).
10Pea naʻe ʻalu fakatakamilo hono ngataʻanga mei Peala ʻi lulunga ki he moʻunga ko Seia, pea mole ai pe ʻo aʻu ki he potu ʻoe moʻunga ko Sialimi, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi Kesaloni, ʻi he potu tokelau, pea naʻe ʻalu hifo ai ki Pete-Semesi, pea ʻalu ai ki Timina:
10The border curled westward from Baalah to Mount Seir, ran along the northern slope of Mount Jearim (that is, Chesalon), went down to Beth-shemesh, and crossed to Timnah.
11Pea naʻe ʻalu ai hono ngataʻanga ʻo hoko atu ki he potu ʻo Ekiloni ki tokelau: pea naʻe fua hono ngataʻanga ki Sikiloni, pea ʻalu ai ia ki he moʻunga ko Peala, ʻo aʻu atu ki Sapinili: pea ko hono ngataʻanga naʻe aʻu atu ki tahi.
11Then it went out to the northern slope of Ekron, curved toward Shikkeron, proceeded to Mount Baalah, went on to Jabneel, and ended at the Sea.
12Pea ko hono ngataʻanga ki lulunga ko e Tahi Lahi, mo hono matātahi ʻo ia. Ko hono ngataʻanga eni ʻoe fānau ʻa Siuta ʻo fakatakamilo ʻo fakatatau ki honau ngaahi faʻahinga.
12And the western border was the coastline of the Great Sea. These are the boundaries around the clans of the descendants of Judah.
13¶ Pea naʻa ne foaki kia Kelepi ko e foha ʻo Sifune hono vahe fakataha mo e fānau ʻa Siuta, ʻo hangē ko e fekau ʻa Sihova kia Siosiua, ʻio, ʻae kolo ʻa ʻAlipa ko e tamai ʻa ʻAnaki, ʻaia ko e kolo ko ia ko Hepeloni.
13According to the LORD’s command to him, Joshua gave Caleb son of Jephunneh a portion among the sons of Judah—Kiriath-arba, that is, Hebron. (Arba was the forefather of Anak.)
14Pea naʻe kapusi mei ai ʻe Kelepi ʻae foha ʻe toko tolu ʻo ʻAnaki, ko Sesei mo ʻEhimani mo Talimi, ko e fānau ʻa ʻAnaki.
14And Caleb drove out from there the three sons of Anak—the descendants of Sheshai, Ahiman, and Talmai, the children of Anak.
15Pea naʻe ʻalu hake mei ai ia ki he kakai ʻo Tipa: pea ko hono hingoa ʻo Tipa ʻi muʻa ko Kesa-Sefa.
15From there he marched against the inhabitants of Debir (formerly known as Kiriath-sepher).
16¶ Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Kelepi, “Ko ia ʻoku ne taaʻi ʻa Kesa-Sefa, pea lavaʻi ia, te u ʻatu kiate ia hoku ʻofefine ko ʻAkesa ke na mali.
16And Caleb said, “To the man who strikes down Kiriath-sepher and captures it, I will give my daughter Acsah in marriage.”
17Pea naʻe lavaʻi ia ʻe Otinili ko e foha ʻo Kenasi, ko e tokoua ʻo Kelepi: pea naʻa ne ʻatu kiate ia hono ʻofefine ko ʻAkesa ko hono uaifi.
17So Othniel son of Caleb’s brother Kenaz captured the city, and Caleb gave his daughter Acsah to him in marriage.
18Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi heʻene haʻu kiate ia, naʻa ne ueʻi ia ke ne kole ʻae ngoue mei heʻene tamai: pea naʻe ʻalu hifo ia mei heʻene ʻasi; pea pehē ʻe Kelepi kiate ia, Ko e hā ho loto?
18One day Acsah came to Othniel and urged him to ask her father for a field. When she got off her donkey, Caleb asked her, “What do you desire?”
19Pea naʻa ne tali ʻo pehē, “Tuku mai ha tāpuaki; he kuo ke foaki mai ha fonua ki tonga: foaki mai ʻae ngaahi matavai foki.” Pea ne foaki kiate ia ʻae ngaahi matavai ʻi ʻolunga, mo e ngaahi matavai ʻi lalo.
19“Give me a blessing,” she answered. “Since you have given me land in the Negev, give me springs of water as well.” So Caleb gave her both the upper and lower springs.
20Ko e tofiʻa eni ʻoe faʻahinga ʻoe fānau ʻa Siuta ʻo fakatatau ki honau ngaahi faʻahinga.
20This is the inheritance of the clans of the tribe of Judah.
21Pea ko e ngaahi kolo ʻoe faʻahinga ʻoe fānau ʻa Siuta ʻoku hanga ki he potu ʻo ʻItomi ki tonga, ko Kapisili mo ʻEta mo Sekua.
