The Remainder of the Land Divided

18Now the whole congregation of the children of Israel assembled together at Shiloh, and set up the tabernacle of meeting there. And the land was subdued before them.H5712H1121H3478H6950H7887H7931H168H4150H776H3533H6440 2But there remained among the children of Israel seven tribes which had not yet received their inheritance.H3498H1121H3478H7651H7626H2505H5159 3Then Joshua said to the children of Israel: "How long will you neglect to go and possess the land which the LORD God of your fathers has given you?H3091H559H1121H3478H7503H935H3423H776H3068H430H1H5414 4"Pick out from among you three men for each tribe, and I will send them; they shall rise and go through the land, survey it according to their inheritance, and come back to me.H3051H7969H582H7626H7971H6965H1980H776H3789H6310H5159H935 5"And they shall divide it into seven parts. Judah shall remain in their territory on the south, and the house of Joseph shall remain in their territory on the north.H2505H7651H2506H3063H5975H1366H5045H1004H3130H5975H1366H6828 6"You shall therefore survey the land in seven parts and bring the survey here to me, that I may cast lots for you here before the LORD our God.H3789H776H7651H2506H935H3384H1486H6440H3068H430 7"But the Levites have no part among you, for the priesthood of the LORD is their inheritance. And Gad, Reuben, and half the tribe of Manasseh have received their inheritance beyond the Jordan on the east, which Moses the servant of the LORD gave them."H3881H2506H7130H3550H3068H5159H1410H7205H2677H7626H4519H3947H5159H5676H3383H4217H4872H5650H3068H5414 8Then the men arose to go away; and Joshua charged those who went to survey the land, saying, "Go, walk through the land, survey it, and come back to me, that I may cast lots for you here before the LORD in Shiloh."H582H6965H3212H3091H6680H1980H3789H776H559H3212H1980H776H3789H7725H7993H1486H6440H3068H7887 9So the men went, passed through the land, and wrote the survey in a book in seven parts by cities; and they came to Joshua at the camp in Shiloh.H582H3212H5674H776H3789H5892H7651H2506H5612H935H3091H4264H7887 10Then Joshua cast lots for them in Shiloh before the LORD, and there Joshua divided the land to the children of Israel according to their divisions.H3091H7993H1486H7887H6440H3068H3091H2505H776H1121H3478H4256

11Now the lot of the tribe of the children of Benjamin came up according to their families, and the territory of their lot came out between the children of Judah and the children of Joseph.H1486H4294H1121H1144H5927H4940H1366H1486H3318H1121H3063H1121H3130 12Their border on the north side began at the Jordan, and the border went up to the side of Jericho on the north, and went up through the mountains westward; it ended at the Wilderness of Beth Aven.H1366H6828H6285H3383H1366H5927H3802H3405H6828H5927H2022H3220H8444H4057H1007 13The border went over from there toward Luz, to the side of Luz (which is Bethel) southward; and the border descended to Ataroth Addar, near the hill that lies on the south side of Lower Beth Horon.H1366H5674H3870H3802H3870H1008H5045H1366H3381H5853H2022H5045H8481H1032 14Then the border extended around the west side to the south, from the hill that lies before Beth Horon southward; and it ended at Kirjath Baal (which is Kirjath Jearim), a city of the children of Judah. This was the west side.H1366H8388H5437H6285H3220H5045H2022H6440H1032H5045H8444H7154H7157H5892H1121H3063H3220H6285 15The south side began at the end of Kirjath Jearim, and the border extended on the west and went out to the spring of the waters of Nephtoah.H5045H6285H7097H7157H1366H3318H3220H3318H4599H4325H5318 16Then the border came down to the end of the mountain that lies before the Valley of the Son of Hinnom, which is in the Valley of the Rephaim on the north, descended to the Valley of Hinnom, to the side of the Jebusite city on the south, and descended to En Rogel.H1366H3381H7097H2022H6440H1516H1121H2011H6010H7497H6828H3381H1516H2011H3802H2983H5045H3381H5883 17And it went around from the north, went out to En Shemesh, and extended toward Geliloth, which is before the Ascent of Adummim, and descended to the stone of Bohan the son of Reuben.H8388H6828H3318H5885H3318H1553H5227H4608H131H3381H68H932H1121H7205 18Then it passed along toward the north side of Arabah, and went down to Arabah.H5674H3802H4136H6160H6828H3381H6160 19And the border passed along to the north side of Beth Hoglah; then the border ended at the north bay at the Salt Sea, at the south end of the Jordan. This was the southern boundary.H1366H5674H3802H1031H6828H8444H1366H6828H3956H4417H3220H5045H7097H3383H5045H1366 20The Jordan was its border on the east side. This was the inheritance of the children of Benjamin, according to its boundaries all around, according to their families.H3383H1379H6924H6285H5159H1121H1144H1367H5439H4940 21Now the cities of the tribe of the children of Benjamin, according to their families, were Jericho, Beth Hoglah, Emek Keziz,H5892H4294H1121H1144H4940H3405H1031H6010H7104 22Beth Arabah, Zemaraim, Bethel,H1026H6787H1008 23Avim, Parah, Ophrah,H5761H6511H6084 24Chephar Haammoni, Ophni, and Gaba: twelve cities with their villages;H3726H6078H1387H8147H6240H5892H2691 25Gibeon, Ramah, Beeroth,H1391H7414H881 26Mizpah, Chephirah, Mozah,H4708H3716H4681 27Rekem, Irpeel, Taralah,H7552H3416H8634 28Zelah, Eleph, Jebus (which is Jerusalem), Gibeath, and Kirjath: fourteen cities with their villages.
