15:1 The land allotted to the tribe of Judah by its clans reached to the border of Edom, to the Wilderness of Zin in the Negev far to the south.
1 15:2 Their southern border started at the southern tip of the Salt Sea,
2 15:3 extended
3 south of the Scorpion Ascent,
4 crossed to Zin, went up from the south to Kadesh Barnea, crossed to Hezron, went up to Addar, and turned toward Karka.
15:4 It then crossed to Azmon, extended to the Stream of Egypt,

15:7 It then went up to Debir from the Valley of Achor, turning northward to Gilgal (which is opposite the Pass
10 of Adummim south of the valley), crossed to the waters of En Shemesh and extended to En Rogel.
15:8 It then went up the Valley of Ben Hinnom to the slope of the Jebusites on the south (that is, Jerusalem),
11 going up to the top of the hill opposite the Valley of Ben Hinnom to the west, which is at the end of the Valley of the Rephaites to the north.
15:9 It then went from the top of the hill to the spring of the waters of Nephtoah, extended to the cities of Mount Ephron, and went to Baalah (that is, Kiriath Jearim).
15:10 It then turned from Baalah westward to Mount Seir, crossed to the slope of Mount Jearim on the north (that is Kesalon), descended to Beth Shemesh, and crossed to Timnah.

15:13 Caleb son of Jephunneh was assigned Kiriath Arba (that is Hebron) within the tribe of Judah, according to the Lord’s instructions to Joshua. (Arba was the father of Anak.)
14 15:14 Caleb drove out
15 from there three Anakites – Sheshai, Ahiman, and Talmai, descendants of Anak.
15:15 From there he attacked the people of Debir.
16 (Debir used to be called Kiriath Sepher.)
15:16 Caleb said, “To the man who attacks and captures Kiriath Sepher I will give my daughter Acsah as a wife.”
15:17 When Othniel son of Kenaz, Caleb’s brother,
17 captured it, Caleb
18 gave Acsah his daughter to him as a wife.
15:18 One time Acsah
19 came and charmed her father
20 so that she could ask him for some land. When she got down from her donkey, Caleb said to her, “What would you like?”
15:19 She answered, “Please give me a special present.
21 Since you have given me land in the Negev, now give me springs of water. So he gave her both upper and lower springs.
15:20 This is the land assigned to the tribe of Judah by its clans:
