Joshua 15:9-14 Good News Bible Catholic Edition (GNBDK)

9. From there it went to the Springs of Nephtoah and out to the cities near Mount Ephron. There it turned towards Baalah (or Kiriath Jearim),

10. where it circled west of Baalah towards the hill country of Edom, went on the north side of Mount Jearim (or Chesalon), down to Beth Shemesh, and on past Timnah.

11. The border then went out to the hill north of Ekron, turned towards Shikkeron, past Mount Baalah, and on to Jamnia. It ended at the Mediterranean Sea,

12. which formed the western border.Within these borders lived the people of the families of Judah.

13. As the Lord commanded Joshua, part of the territory of Judah was given to Caleb son of Jephunneh, from the tribe of Judah. He received Hebron, the city belonging to Arba, father of Anak.

14. Caleb drove the descendants of Anak out of the city — the clans of Sheshai, Ahiman, and Talmai.
