1 Then the whole congregation of the children of God Prevails (Israel) assembled together at Tranquility (Shiloh), and set up the tabernacle of the congregation there. And the land was subdued before them.
2 There remained among the children of God
Prevails (Israel) seven tribes, which had not yet received their inheritance.
3 I AM is Salvation (Joshua) said to the
children of God Prevails (Israel): How long are you going to wait to go to
possess the land, which I AM, God (Yehovah-Elohyim) of your fathers, has given
you?
4 Take out from among you three men for
each tribe: and I will send them. They shall rise, go through the land, and
describe it according to their inheritance, and they shall come again to me.
5 They shall divide it into seven parts: Praised
(Judah) shall abide in their territory on the south, and the house of I AM Will
Add (Joseph) shall abide in their territory on the north.
6 You shall therefore describe the land
in seven parts, and bring the description here to me, that I may cast lots for
you here before I AM our God (Yehovah-Elohyim).
7 But the Children of Joined To (Levites)
have no part among you; for the priesthood of I AM (Lord) is their inheritance:
Troop (Gad), Behold a Son (Reuben), and half the tribe of Causing to Forget
(Manasseh), have received their inheritance beyond The Descender (Jordan) on
the east, which Drawn (Moses) the servant of I AM (Lord) gave them.
8 So, the men arose, and went away: and I
AM is Salvation (Joshua) charged them that went to describe the land, saying:
Go and walk through the land, describe it, and come again to me, that I may
here cast lots for you before I AM (Lord) in Tranquility (Shiloh).
9 So the men went and passed through the
land, and described it by cities into seven parts in a book, and came again to I
AM is Salvation (Joshua) to the host at Tranquility (Shiloh).
10 Then I AM is Salvation (Joshua) cast
lots for them in Tranquility (Shiloh) before I AM (Yehovah Lord): and there I
AM is Salvation (Joshua) divided the land to the children of God Prevails
(Israel) according to their divisions.
11 The lot of the tribe of the children
of Son of the Right Hand (Benjamin) came up according to their families: and
the border of their lot lay between the children of Praised (Judah) and the
children of I AM Will Add (Joseph).
12 Their border on the north side was
from The Descender (Jordan), and the border went up to the side of Its Moon
(Jericho) on the north side, and went up through the mountains westward; the
goings out thereof were at the wilderness of House of Vanity (Bethaven).
13 And the border went over from there
toward Almond Tree (Luz), to the side of Almond Tree (Luz), which is Almond Tree
(Luz), southward; and the border descended to Crowns of Glory (Atarothadar),
near the hill that lies on the south side of the nether House of Hollowness
(Bethhoron).
14 The border was drawn from there. It turned
at the corner of the sea southward, from the hill that lies before House of
Hollowness (Bethhoron) southward. From there it went to City of Baal
(Kirjathbaal), which is City of Forests (Kirjathjearim), a city of the children
of Praised (Judah): this was the west quarter.
15 The south quarter was from the end of City
of Forests (Kirjathjearim), and the border went out on the west, and went out
to the well of waters of Opening (Nephtoah):
16 Then the border came down to the end
of the mountain that lies before the valley of the son of Lamentation (Hinnom),
and which is in the valley of the giants on the north, and descended to the
valley of Lamentation (Hinnom), to the side of Trodden Underfoot (Jebusi) on
the south, and descended to Fountain of the Fuller (Enrogel),
17 It was then drawn from the north, and
went out to Fountain of the Sun (Enshemesh), and went out toward Circuits
(Geliloth), which is over against the going up of Red Spots (Adummim), and
descended to the stone of Thumb (Bohan) the son of Behold a Son (Reuben),
18 It passed along toward the side over
against Desert Plain (Arabah) northward, and went down to Desert Plain (Arabah):
19 Then the border passed along to the
side of House of the Partridge (Bethhoglah) northward: and the outgoings of the
border were at the north bay of the salt sea at the south end of The Descender
(Jordan): this was the southern border.
20 The Descender (Jordan) was the border
of it on the east side. This was the inheritance of the children of Son of the
Right Hand (Benjamin), by the boundaries thereof round about, according to
their families.
21 Now the cities of the tribe of the
children of Son of the Right Hand (Benjamin) according to their families were Its
Moon (Jericho), House of the Partridge (Bethhoglah), and the valley of Cut-Off
(Keziz),
22 House of the Desert Valley
(Betharabah), Double Fleece of Wool (Zemaraim), and Almond Tree (Luz),
23 Ruins (Avim), Heifer-Town (Pharah),
and Fawn (Ophrah),
24 Village of the
Talkers, Sayers (Chepharhaammonai), Moldy (Ophni), and Hill (Gaba); twelve
cities with their villages:
25 Hill City (Gibeon), The Height (Ramah),
and Wells (Beeroth),
26 Watchtower (Mizpeh), Lioness
(Chephirah), and Fountain (Mozah),
27 Variegation (Rekem), God Will Heal
(Irpeel), and Reeling (Taralah),
28 A Rib (Zelah), Thousand (Eleph), and Trodden
Underfoot (Jebusi), which is Rain of Peace (Jerusalem), Hill (Gibeath), and City
of Forests (Kirjath); fourteen cities with their villages. This is the
inheritance of the children of Son of the Right Hand (Benjamin) according to
their families.
