Joshua 15:3-4

15:3 extended ¹  south of the Scorpion Ascent, ²  crossed to Zin, went up from the south to Kadesh Barnea, crossed to Hezron, went up to Addar, and turned toward Karka. 15:4 It then crossed to Azmon, extended to the Stream of Egypt, ³  and ended at the sea. This was their ⁴  southern border.

[15:3]  ¹ tn Heb “went out.”

[15:3]  ² tn Or “the Ascent of Scorpions” (עַקְרַבִּים [’aqrabbim] means “scorpions” in Hebrew).

[15:4]  ³ tn Traditionally “the Brook of Egypt,” although a number of recent translations have “the Wadi of Egypt” (cf. NAB, NIV, NRSV).

[15:4]  ⁴ tn The translation follows the LXX at this point. The MT reads, “This will be your southern border.”
