Hello, just as a general comment, Jena artifacts are published in the official Maven repo. No need to build from source or download them manually if your project uses Maven, Ivy or SBT.
Can you please explain how you want to use Jena? - From Java? If so, is it a Maven project? - From CLI? If so, there are downloadable releases which contains all the tools and scripts.
