And the whole congregation{H5712} of the children{H1121} of Israel{H3478} assembled together{H6950}{(H8735)} at Shiloh{H7887}, and set up{H7931}{(H8686)} the tabernacle{H168} of the congregation{H4150} there. And the land{H776} was subdued{H3533}{(H8738)} before{H6440} them.

And there remained{H3498}{(H8735)} among the children{H1121} of Israel{H3478} seven{H7651} tribes{H7626}, which had not yet received{H2505}{(H8804)} their inheritance{H5159}.

And Joshua{H3091} said{H559}{(H8799)} unto the children{H1121} of Israel{H3478}, How long are ye slack{H7503}{(H8693)} to go{H935}{(H8800)} to possess{H3423}{(H8800)} the land{H776}, which the LORD{H3068} God{H430} of your fathers{H1} hath given{H5414}{(H8804)} you?

Give out{H3051}{(H8798)} from among you three{H7969} men{H582} for each tribe{H7626}: and I will send{H7971}{(H8799)} them, and they shall rise{H6965}{(H8799)}, and go{H1980}{(H8691)} through the land{H776}, and describe{H3789}{(H8799)} it according{H6310} to the inheritance{H5159} of them; and they shall come{H935}{(H8799)} again to me.

And they shall divide{H2505}{(H8694)} it into seven{H7651} parts{H2506}: Judah{H3063} shall abide{H5975}{(H8799)} in their coast{H1366} on the south{H5045}, and the house{H1004} of Joseph{H3130} shall abide{H5975}{(H8799)} in their coasts{H1366} on the north{H6828}.

Ye shall therefore describe{H3789}{(H8799)} the land{H776} into seven{H7651} parts{H2506}, and bring{H935}{(H8689)} the description hither to me, that I may cast{H3384}{(H8804)} lots{H1486} for you here before{H6440} the LORD{H3068} our God{H430}.

But the Levites{H3881} have no part{H2506} among{H7130} you; for the priesthood{H3550} of the LORD{H3068} is their inheritance{H5159}: and Gad{H1410}, and Reuben{H7205}, and half{H2677} the tribe{H7626} of Manasseh{H4519}, have received{H3947}{(H8804)} their inheritance{H5159} beyond{H5676} Jordan{H3383} on the east{H4217}, which Moses{H4872} the servant{H5650} of the LORD{H3068} gave{H5414}{(H8804)} them.

And the men{H582} arose{H6965}{(H8799)}, and went away{H3212}{(H8799)}: and Joshua{H3091} charged{H6680}{(H8762)} them that went{H1980}{(H8802)} to describe{H3789}{(H8800)} the land{H776}, saying{H559}{(H8800)}, Go{H3212}{(H8798)} and walk{H1980}{(H8690)} through the land{H776}, and describe{H3789}{(H8798)} it, and come again{H7725}{(H8798)} to me, that I may here cast{H7993}{(H8686)} lots{H1486} for you before{H6440} the LORD{H3068} in Shiloh{H7887}.

And the men{H582} went{H3212}{(H8799)} and passed through{H5674}{(H8799)} the land{H776}, and described{H3789}{(H8799)} it by cities{H5892} into seven{H7651} parts{H2506} in a book{H5612}, and came{H935}{(H8799)} again to Joshua{H3091} to the host{H4264} at Shiloh{H7887}.

And Joshua{H3091} cast{H7993}{(H8686)} lots{H1486} for them in Shiloh{H7887} before{H6440} the LORD{H3068}: and there Joshua{H3091} divided{H2505}{(H8762)} the land{H776} unto the children{H1121} of Israel{H3478} according to their divisions{H4256}.

And the lot{H1486} of the tribe{H4294} of the children{H1121} of Benjamin{H1144} came up{H5927}{(H8799)} according to their families{H4940}: and the coast{H1366} of their lot{H1486} came forth{H3318}{(H8799)} between the children{H1121} of Judah{H3063} and the children{H1121} of Joseph{H3130}.

And their border{H1366} on the north{H6828} side{H6285} was from Jordan{H3383}; and the border{H1366} went up{H5927}{(H8804)} to the side{H3802} of Jericho{H3405} on the north{H6828} side, and went up{H5927}{(H8804)} through the mountains{H2022} westward{H3220}; and the goings out{H8444} thereof were at the wilderness{H4057} of Bethaven{H1007}.

And the border{H1366} went over{H5674}{(H8804)} from thence toward Luz{H3870}, to the side{H3802} of Luz{H3870}, which is Bethel{H1008}, southward{H5045}; and the border{H1366} descended{H3381}{(H8804)} to Atarothadar{H5853}, near the hill{H2022} that lieth on the south side{H5045} of the nether{H8481} Bethhoron{H1032}.

And the border{H1366} was drawn{H8388}{(H8804)} thence, and compassed{H5437}{(H8738)} the corner{H6285} of the sea{H3220} southward{H5045}, from the hill{H2022} that lieth before{H6440} Bethhoron{H1032} southward{H5045}; and the goings out{H8444} thereof were at Kirjathbaal{H7154}, which is Kirjathjearim{H7157}, a city{H5892} of the children{H1121} of Judah{H3063}: this was the west{H3220} quarter{H6285}.

And the south{H5045} quarter{H6285} was from the end{H7097} of Kirjathjearim{H7157}, and the border{H1366} went out{H3318}{(H8804)} on the west{H3220}, and went out{H3318}{(H8804)} to the well{H4599} of waters{H4325} of Nephtoah{H5318}:

And the border{H1366} came down{H3381}{(H8804)} to the end{H7097} of the mountain{H2022} that lieth before{H6440} the valley{H1516} of the son{H1121} of Hinnom{H2011}, and which is in the valley{H6010} of the giants{H7497} on the north{H6828}, and descended{H3381}{(H8804)} to the valley{H1516} of Hinnom{H2011}, to the side{H3802} of Jebusi{H2983} on the south{H5045}, and descended{H3381}{(H8804)} to Enrogel{H5883},

And was drawn{H8388}{(H8804)} from the north{H6828}, and went forth{H3318}{(H8804)} to Enshemesh{H5885}, and went forth{H3318}{(H8804)} toward Geliloth{H1553}, which is over against{H5227} the going up{H4608} of Adummim{H131}, and descended{H3381}{(H8804)} to the stone{H68} of Bohan{H932} the son{H1121} of Reuben{H7205},

And passed along{H5674}{(H8804)} toward the side{H3802} over against{H4136} Arabah{H6160} northward{H6828}, and went down{H3381}{(H8804)} unto Arabah{H6160}:

And the border{H1366} passed along{H5674}{(H8804)} to the side{H3802} of Bethhoglah{H1031} northward{H6828}: and the outgoings{H8444} of the border{H1366} were at the north{H6828} bay{H3956} of the salt{H4417} sea{H3220} at the south{H5045} end{H7097} of Jordan{H3383}: this was the south{H5045} coast{H1366}.

And Jordan{H3383} was the border{H1379}{(H8799)} of it on the east{H6924} side{H6285}. This was the inheritance{H5159} of the children{H1121} of Benjamin{H1144}, by the coasts{H1367} thereof round about{H5439}, according to their families{H4940}.

Now the cities{H5892} of the tribe{H4294} of the children{H1121} of Benjamin{H1144} according to their families{H4940} were Jericho{H3405}, and Bethhoglah{H1031}, and the valley{H6010} of Keziz{H7104},

And Betharabah{H1026}, and Zemaraim{H6787}, and Bethel{H1008},

And Avim{H5761}, and Parah{H6511}, and Ophrah{H6084},

And Chepharhaammonai{H3726}, and Ophni{H6078}, and Gaba{H1387}; twelve{H8147}{H6240} cities{H5892} with their villages{H2691}:

Gibeon{H1391}, and Ramah{H7414}, and Beeroth{H881},

And Mizpeh{H4708}, and Chephirah{H3716}, and Mozah{H4681},

And Rekem{H7552}, and Irpeel{H3416}, and Taralah{H8634},

And Zelah{H6762}, Eleph{H507}, and Jebusi{H2983}, which is Jerusalem{H3389}, Gibeath{H1394}, and Kirjath{H7157}; fourteen{H702}{H6240} cities{H5892} with their villages{H2691}. This is the inheritance{H5159} of the children{H1121} of Benjamin{H1144} according to their families{H4940}.
