1This then was the lot of the tribe of the children of Iudah by their families: euen to the border of Edom and the wildernesse of Zin, Southward on the Southcoast. 2And their south border was from the shore of the salt sea, from the bay that looketh southward: 3And it went out on the Southside towarde Maaleth-akrabbim, and went along to Zin, and ascended vp on the Southside vnto Kadesh-barnea, and went along to Hezron, and went vp to Adar, and fet a compasse to Karkaa. 4From thence went it along to Azmon, and reached vnto the riuer of Egypt, and the end of that coast was on the Westside: this shall be your South coast. 5And the east border [was] the salt sea, [even] unto the end of Jordan. And [their] border in the north quarter [was] from the bay of the sea at the uttermost part of Jordan: 6And the border went up to Bethhogla, and passed along by the north of Betharabah; and the border went up to the stone of Bohan the son of Reuben: 7Againe this border goeth vp to Debir from the valley of Achor, and Northwarde, turning toward Gilgal, that lyeth before the going vp to Adummim, which is on the Southside of the riuer: also this border goeth vp to the waters of En-shemesh, and endeth at En-rogel. 8Then this border goeth vp to the valley of the sonne of Hinnom; on the Southside of the Iebusites: the same is Ierusalem. Also this border goeth vp to the top of the mountaine that lyeth before the valley of Hinnom Westward, which is by the end of the valley of ye gyants Northward. 9So this border compasseth from the top of the mountaine vnto the fountaine of the water of Nephtoah, & goeth out to the cities of mount Ephron: and this border draweth to Baalah, which is Kiriath-iearim. 10Then this border compasseth from Baalah Westward vnto mount Seir, and goeth along vnto the side of mount Iearim, which is Chesalon on the Northside: so it commeth downe to Bethshemesh, and goeth to Timnah. 11And the border went out unto the side of Ekron northward: and the border was drawn to Shicron, and passed along to mount Baalah, and went out unto Jabneel; and the goings out of the border were at the sea. 12And the Westborder is to the great Sea: so this border shalbe the bounds of the children of Iudah round about, according to their families. 13And vnto Caleb the sonne of Iephunneh did Ioshua giue a part among the children of Iudah, as the Lord commanded him, euen Kiriath-arba of the father of Anak, which is Hebron. 14And Caleb drove thence the three sons of Anak, Sheshai, and Ahiman, and Talmai, the children of Anak. 15And he went vp thence to the inhabitants of Debir: and the name of Debir before time was Kiriath-sepher. 16Then Caleb sayd, He that smiteth Kiriath-sepher, and taketh it, euen to him wil I giue Achsah my daughter to wife. 17And Othniel, the sonne of Kenaz, the brother of Caleb tooke it: and he gaue him Achsah his daughter to wife. 18And it came to pass, as she came [unto him], that she moved him to ask of her father a field: and she lighted off [her] ass; and Caleb said unto her, What wouldest thou? 19Who answered, Give me a blessing; for thou hast given me a south land; give me also springs of water. And he gave her the upper springs, and the nether springs. 20This shalbe the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Iudah according to their families. 21And the vtmost cities of the tribe of the children of Iudah, toward the coastes of Edom Southward were Kabzeel, and Eder, and Iagur, 22And Kinah, and Dimonah, and Adadah, 23And Kedesh, and Hazor, and Ithnan, 24Ziph, and Telem, and Bealoth, 25And Hazor, Hadattah, and Kerioth, Hesron (which is Hazor) 26Amam, and Shema, and Moladah, 27And Hazar, Gaddah, and Heshmon, and Beth-palet, 28And Hasar-shual, and Beersheba, and Biziothiah, 29Baalah, and Iim, and Azem, 30And Eltolad, and Chesil, and Hormah, 31And Ziklag, & Madmanna, & Sansannah, 32And Lebaoth, and Shilhim, and Ain, and Rimmon: all these cities are twentie and nine with their villages. 33In the lowe countrey were Eshtaol, and Zoreah, and Ashnah, 34And Zanoah, and En-gannim, Tappuah, and Enam, 35Iarmuth, and Adullam, Socoh, & Azekah, 36And Sharaim, and Adithaim, and Gederah, and Gederothaim: fourteene cities with their villages. 37Zenam, and Hadashah, and Migdal-gad, 38And Dileam, and Mizpeh, and Ioktheel, 39Lachish, and Bozkath, and Eglon, 40And Cabbon, and Lahmam, and Kithlish, 41And Gederoth, Beth-dagon, and Naamah, and Makkedah: sixteene cities with their villages. 42Lebnah, and Ether, and Ashan, 43And Iipthtah, and Ashnah, and Nezib, 44And Keilah, and Aczib, & Mareshah: nine cities with their villages. 45Ekron with her townes and her villages, 46From Ekron, euen vnto the Sea, all that lyeth about Ashdod with their villages. 47Ashdod with her towns and her villages, Gaza with her towns and her villages, unto the river of Egypt, and the great sea, and the border [thereof]: 48And in the mountaines were Shamir, and Iattir, and Socoh, 49And Dannah, and Kirjathsannah, which [is] Debir, 50And Anab, and Ashtemoth, and Anim, 51And Goshen, and Holon, & Giloh: eleuen cities with their villages, 52Arab, and Dumah, and Eshean, 53And Ianum, & Beth-tappuah, & Aphekah, 54And Humtah, and Kiriath-arba, (which is Hebron) and Zior: nine cities with their villages. 55Maon, Carmel, and Ziph, and Iuttah, 56And Izreel, and Iokdeam, and Zanoah, 57Kain, Gibeah, and Timnah: ten cities with their villages. 58Halhul, Beth-zur, and Gedor, 59And Maarah, and Beth-anoth, & Eltekon: sixe cities with their villages. 60Kiriath-baal, which is Kiriath-iearim, and Rabbah: two cities with their villages. 61In the wildernes were Beth-arabah, Middin, and Secacah, 62And Nibshan, and the city of Salt, and Engedi; six cities with their villages. 63As for the Jebusites the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the children of Judah could not drive them out: but the Jebusites dwell with the children of Judah at Jerusalem unto this day.
