Rest of the Land Divided

18Then the whole congregation of the sons of Israel assembled themselves at Shiloh, and set up the tent of meeting there; and the land was subdued before them.H5712H1121H3478H6950H7887H7931H168H4150H776H3533H6440 2And there remained among the sons of Israel seven tribes who had not divided their inheritance.H3498H1121H3478H7651H7626H2505H5159 3So Joshua said to the sons of Israel, "How long will you put off entering to take possession of the land which the LORD, the God of your fathers, has given you?H3091H559H1121H3478H7503H935H3423H776H3068H430H1H5414 4"Provide for yourselves three men from each tribe that I may send them, and that they may arise and walk through the land and write a description of it according to their inheritance; then they shall return to me.H3051H7969H582H7626H7971H6965H1980H776H3789H6310H5159H935 5"And they shall divide it into seven portions; Judah shall stay in its territory on the south, and the house of Joseph shall stay in their territory on the north.H2505H7651H2506H3063H5975H1366H5045H1004H3130H5975H1366H6828 6"And you shall describe the land in seven divisions, and bring [the description] here to me. And I will cast lots for you here before the LORD our God.H3789H776H7651H2506H935H3384H1486H6440H3068H430 7"For the Levites have no portion among you, because the priesthood of the LORD is their inheritance. Gad and Reuben and the half-tribe of Manasseh also have received their inheritance eastward beyond the Jordan, which Moses the servant of the LORD gave them."H3881H2506H7130H3550H3068H5159H1410H7205H2677H7626H4519H3947H5159H5676H3383H4217H4872H5650H3068H5414 8Then the men arose and went, and Joshua commanded those who went to describe the land, saying, "Go and walk through the land and describe it, and return to me; then I will cast lots for you here before the LORD in Shiloh."H582H6965H3212H3091H6680H1980H3789H776H559H3212H1980H776H3789H7725H7993H1486H6440H3068H7887 9So the men went and passed through the land, and described it by cities in seven divisions in a book; and they came to Joshua to the camp at Shiloh.H582H3212H5674H776H3789H5892H7651H2506H5612H935H3091H4264H7887 10And Joshua cast lots for them in Shiloh before the LORD, and there Joshua divided the land to the sons of Israel according to their divisions.H3091H7993H1486H7887H6440H3068H3091H2505H776H1121H3478H4256

11Now the lot of the tribe of the sons of Benjamin came up according to their families, and the territory of their lot lay between the sons of Judah and the sons of Joseph.H1486H4294H1121H1144H5927H4940H1366H1486H3318H1121H3063H1121H3130 12And their border on the north side was from the Jordan, then the border went up to the side of Jericho on the north, and went up through the hill country westward; and it ended at the wilderness of Beth-aven.H1366H6828H6285H3383H1366H5927H3802H3405H6828H5927H2022H3220H8444H4057H1007 13And from there the border continued to Luz, to the side of Luz (that is, Bethel) southward; and the border went down to Ataroth-addar, near the hill which [lies] on the south of lower Beth-horon.H1366H5674H3870H3802H3870H1008H5045H1366H3381H5853H2022H5045H8481H1032 14And the border extended [from there,] and turned round on the west side southward, from the hill which [lies] before Beth-horon southward; and it ended at Kiriath-baal (that is, Kiriath-jearim), a city of the sons of Judah. This [was] the west side.H1366H8388H5437H6285H3220H5045H2022H6440H1032H5045H8444H7154H7157H5892H1121H3063H3220H6285 15Then the south side [was] from the edge of Kiriath-jearim, and the border went westward and went to the fountain of the waters of Nephtoah.H5045H6285H7097H7157H1366H3318H3220H3318H4599H4325H5318 16And the border went down to the edge of the hill which is in the valley of Ben-hinnom, which is in the valley of Rephaim northward; and it went down to the valley of Hinnom, to the slope of the Jebusite southward, and went down to En-rogel.H1366H3381H7097H2022H6440H1516H1121H2011H6010H7497H6828H3381H1516H2011H3802H2983H5045H3381H5883 17And it extended northward and went to En-shemesh and went to Geliloth, which is opposite the ascent of Adummim, and it went down to the stone of Bohan the son of Reuben.H8388H6828H3318H5885H3318H1553H5227H4608H131H3381H68H932H1121H7205 18And it continued to the side in front of the Arabah northward, and went down to the Arabah.H5674H3802H4136H6160H6828H3381H6160 19And the border continued to the side of Beth-hoglah northward; and the border ended at the north bay of the Salt Sea, at the south end of the Jordan. This [was] the south border.H1366H5674H3802H1031H6828H8444H1366H6828H3956H4417H3220H5045H7097H3383H5045H1366 20Moreover, the Jordan was its border on the east side. This [was] the inheritance of the sons of Benjamin, according to their families [and] according to its borders all around.H3383H1379H6924H6285H5159H1121H1144H1367H5439H4940 21Now the cities of the tribe of the sons of Benjamin according to their families were Jericho and Beth-hoglah and Emek-keziz,H5892H4294H1121H1144H4940H3405H1031H6010H7104 22and Beth-arabah and Zemaraim and Bethel,H1026H6787H1008 23and Avvim and Parah and Ophrah,H5761H6511H6084 24and Chephar-ammoni and Ophni and Geba; twelve cities with their villages.H3726H6078H1387H8147H6240H5892H2691 25Gibeon and Ramah and Beeroth,H1391H7414H881 26and Mizpeh and Chephirah and Mozah,H4708H3716H4681 27and Rekem and Irpeel and Taralah,H7552H3416H8634 28and Zelah, Haeleph and the Jebusite (that is, Jerusalem), Gibeah, Kiriath; fourteen cities with their villages.
