1 The allotment for the tribe of the people of Judah according to their clans reached southward ^hto the boundary of Edom, to ⁱthe wilderness of Zin at the farthest south. 2 And their south boundary ran from the end of the ^hSalt Sea, from the bay that faces southward. 3 It goes out southward of ^jthe ascent of Akrabbim, passes along to Zin, and goes up south of Kadesh-barnea, along by Hezron, up to Addar, turns about to Karka, 4 passes along to Azmon, goes out by ^kthe Brook of Egypt, and comes to its end at the sea. This shall be your south boundary. 5 And the east boundary is the ^hSalt Sea, to the mouth of the Jordan. And the boundary on the north side runs from the bay of the sea at the mouth of the Jordan. 6 And the boundary goes up to ^lBeth-hoglah and passes along north of ^mBeth-arabah. And the boundary goes up to ⁿthe stone of Bohan the son of Reuben. 7 And the boundary goes up to Debir from ^othe Valley of Achor, and so northward, turning toward Gilgal, which is opposite ^pthe ascent of Adummim, which is on the south side of the valley. And the boundary passes along to the waters of ^pEn-shemesh and ends at ^qEn-rogel. 8 Then the boundary goes up by ^rthe Valley of the Son of Hinnom at the southern shoulder of the Jebusite (^sthat is, Jerusalem). And the boundary goes up to the top of the mountain that lies over against the Valley of Hinnom, on the west, at the northern end of the Valley ^tof Rephaim. 9 Then the boundary extends from the top of the mountain ^uto the spring of the waters of Nephtoah, and from there to the cities of Mount Ephron. Then the boundary bends around to Baalah (^vthat is, Kiriath-jearim). 10 And the boundary circles west of Baalah to Mount Seir, passes along to the northern shoulder of Mount Jearim (that is, Chesalon), and goes down to ^wBeth-shemesh and passes along by ^xTimnah. 11 The boundary goes out ^yto the shoulder of the hill north of Ekron, then the boundary bends around to Shikkeron and passes along to Mount ^zBaalah and goes out to Jabneel. Then the boundary comes to an end at the sea. 12 And the west boundary was ^athe Great Sea with its coastline. This is the boundary around the people of Judah according to their clans.
