¹ tn Heb “The lot was to the tribe of the sons of Judah by their clans to the border of Edom, the wilderness of Zin toward the south, southward.”

² tn Traditionally “the Brook of Egypt,” although a number of recent translations have “the Wadi of Egypt” (cf. NAB, NIV, NRSV).

³ tn The translation follows the LXX at this point. The MT reads, “This will be your southern border.”

³ tn Heb “and the cities were at the end of the tribe of the sons of Judah, at the border of Edom, to the south.”

⁴ tn Heb “portions.”

⁵ tn Heb “stand.”

⁶ tn Heb “the house.”

⁵ tn Heb “this was the inheritance of the tribe of the sons of Simeon.”
