1 Eteni ya mabele ya bato ya libota ya Yuda, kolanda bituka na bango, ezalaki na ngambo ya sude, wuta na bandelo ya Edomi kino na esobe ya Tsini, na suka penza ya sude.
The lot for the tribe of the descendants of Judah according to their families was to the border of Edom, even to the wilderness of Zin southward, toward the Negev in the far south.
2 Mondelo na yango ya sude ebandaki na suka ya ebale monene ya Barozo, longwa na eteni ya mabele oyo ekota kati na ebale monene oyo etalana na Negevi,
Their south border was from the uttermost part of the Salt Sea, from the bay that looks southward;
3 emataki kino na ngambo ya sude ya Akarabimi mpe elekaki na Tsini, sima emataki na ngambo ya sude ya Kadeshi-Barinea mpe ekitaki na Etsironi; emataki na ngambo ya Adari mpe ebalukaki na ngambo ya Karika.
and it went out southward of the ascent of Akrabbim, and passed along to Zin, and went up by the south of Kadesh Barnea, and passed along by Hezron, went up to Addar, and turned about to Karka;
4 Elekaki na Atsimoni, ekendeki kotutana na moluka ya Ejipito mpe esukaki na Ebale monene. Yango nde ezali mondelo na bango na ngambo ya sude.
and it passed along to Azmon, went out at the Wadi of Egypt; and the border ended at the sea. This was their southern border.

The east border was the Salt Sea, even to the end of the Jordan. The border of the north quarter was from the bay of the sea at the end of the Jordan.

The border went up to Debir from the Valley of Achor, and so northward, looking toward Gilgal, that is over against the ascent of Adummim, which is on the south side of the river. The border passed along to the waters of En Shemesh, and ended at En Rogel.
8 Bongo mondelo yango emataki na nzela ya Lubwaku ya Beni-Inomi, pene ya mopanzi ya sude ya engumba ya bato ya Yebusi (oyo ezali Yelusalemi). Longwa na esika yango, emataki kino na songe ya ngomba oyo ezali na weste ya Lubwaku ya Inomi, na suka ya ngambo ya nor ya Lubwaku ya Refayimi.
The border went up by the Valley of Ben Hinnom to the slope of the Jebusites southward (that is, Jerusalem); and the border went up to the top of the mountain that lies before the Valley of Hinnom westward, which is at the farthest part of the Valley of Rephaim northward.
9 Longwa na songe ya ngomba, mondelo yango ekatisaki kino na etima ya mayi ya Nefitoa, ebimaki na bingumba ya ngomba Efroni mpe ekitaki na ngambo ya Baala (oyo ezali Kiriati-Yearimi).
The border extended from the top of the mountain to the spring of the waters of Nephtoah, and went out to the cities of Mount Ephron; and the border extended to Baalah (that is, Kiriath Jearim);
10 Longwa na Baala, mondelo yango ekatisaki na ngambo ya weste, pene ya ngomba Seiri; elekaki na mopanzi ya ngomba ya bazamba, na ngambo ya nor (oyo ezali ngomba Kesaloni); ekobaki kokita kino na Beti-Shemeshi mpe ekatisaki kino na Timina.
and the border turned about from Baalah westward to Mount Seir, and passed along to the side of Mount Jearim on the north (that is, Kesalon), and went down to Beth Shemesh, and passed along by Timnah;
11 Mondelo yango ekendeki na mopanzi ya ngambo ya nor ya Ekroni, ebalukaki na Shikeroni, elekaki pene ya ngomba Baala; ekendeki kino na Yabineyeli mpe esukaki na ebale monene.
and the border went out to the side of Ekron northward; and the border extended to Shikkeron, and passed along to Mount Baalah, and went out at Jabneel; and the goings out of the border were at the sea.
12 Mondelo ya ngambo ya weste elekaki pembeni-pembeni ya ebale monene Mediterane. Yango nde ezalaki, na bangambo nyonso, eteni ya mabele ya bato ya libota ya Yuda kolanda bituka na bango.
The west border was to the shore of the Great Sea. This is the border of the descendants of Judah according to their families.
13 Kolanda mitindo oyo Yawe apesaki ye, Jozue apesaki Kalebi, mwana mobali ya Yefune, eteni ya mabele: Kiriati-Ariba (oyo ezali Ebron), kati na libota ya bato ya Yuda. (Ariba azalaki tata ya Anaki).
To Caleb the son of Jephunneh he gave a portion among the descendants of Judah, according to the commandment of Jehovah to Joshua, even Kiriath Arba, named after the father of Anak (that is, Hebron).
14 Kalebi abenganaki, wuta na Ebron, bakitani misato ya Anaki: Sheshayi, Ayimani mpe Talimayi.
Caleb drove out the three sons of Anak: Sheshai, and Ahiman, and Talmai, the descendants of Anak.
15 Longwa wana, akendeki kobundisa bavandi ya Debiri oyo kombo na yango ezalaki na kala « Kiriati-Seferi. »
He went up against the inhabitants of Debir. Now the name of Debir formerly was Kiriath Sepher.
16 Kalebi alobaki: « Nakopesa na libala Akisa, mwana na ngai ya mwasi, epai ya moto nyonso oyo akobundisa mpe akobotola Kiriati-Seferi. »
Caleb said, "He who strikes Kiriath Sepher, and takes it, to him will I give Achsah my daughter as wife."
17 Otinieli, mwana mobali ya Kenazi, ndeko mobali ya Kalebi, abotolaki yango; boye Kalebi apesaki Akisa, mwana na ye ya mwasi, na libala epai ya Otinieli.
Othniel the son of Kenaz, the brother of Caleb, took it: and he gave him Achsah his daughter as wife.
18 Nzokande, tango Akisa akomaki na ndako ya Otinieli, atindikaki ye ete asenga elanga epai ya Kalebi, tata na ye. Boye, tango Akisa akitaki wuta na ane na ye, Kalebi atunaki ye: — Olingi nini?
It happened, when she came, that she had him ask her father for a field. She got off of her donkey, and Caleb said, "What do you want?"
19 Akisa azongisaki: — Salela ngai ngolu. Lokola opesaki ngai eteni ya mabele kati na Negevi, pesa ngai lisusu bitima. Boye, Kalebi apesaki ye bitima ya likolo mpe ya se.
She said, "Give me a blessing. Because you have set me in the land of the Negev, give me also springs of water." He gave her the upper springs and the lower springs.
