1 And the whole assembly of the children of Israel gathered together at Shiloh, and set up the tent of meeting there; and the land was subdued before them.
2 And there remained among the children of Israel seven tribes whose inheritance had not been distributed to them.
3 And Joshua said to the children of Israel, How long will ye shew yourselves slack to go to take possession of the land which Jehovah the God of your fathers hath given you?
4 Provide you three men for a tribe; that I may send them, and they shall rise and go through the land, and describe it according to the proportion of their inheritance, and they shall come to me.
5 And they shall divide it into seven portions. Judah shall remain in their border on the south, and the house of Joseph shall remain in their border on the north;
6 and *ye* shall describe the land into seven portions, and bring {the description} hither to me, and I will cast lots for you here before Jehovah our God.
7 But the Levites have no portion among you, for the priesthood of Jehovah is their inheritance. And Gad, and Reuben, and half the tribe of Manasseh have received their inheritance beyond the Jordan on the east, which Moses the servant of Jehovah gave them.
8 And the men arose and went away. And Joshua charged them that went to describe the land, saying, Go and walk through the land, and describe it, and come again to me, and I will cast lots for you here before Jehovah in Shiloh.
9 And the men went and passed through the land, and described it by cities into seven portions, in a book, and they came to Joshua, to the camp at Shiloh.
10 And Joshua cast lots for them in Shiloh before Jehovah. And there Joshua divided the land to the children of Israel according to their divisions.
11 And the lot of the tribe of the children of Benjamin came up according to their families. And the territory of their lot came forth between the children of Judah and the children of Joseph.
12 And their border on the north side was from the Jordan; and the border went up to the side of Jericho on the north, and went up to the mountain westward; and ended at the wilderness of Beth-Aven;
13 and the border passed on from thence toward Luz, to the south side of Luz, which is Bethel: and the border went down to Ataroth-Addar, near the hill that is on the south of the lower Beth-horon.
14 -And the border reached along and turned on the west side, southward from the hill that is before Beth-horon southward; and ended at Kirjath-Baal, which is Kirjath-jearim, a city of the children of Judah: this is the west side.
15 -And the south side was from the extreme end of Kirjath-jearim, and the border went out on the west, and went out to the spring of the waters of Nephtoah.
16 And the border went down to the end of the mountain that is before the valley of the son of Hinnom, which is in the valley of Rephaim on the north, and went down the valley of Hinnom, to the side of the Jebusite on the south, and went down to En-rogel;
17 and it reached along on the north, and went forth to En-shemesh, and went forth towards Geliloth, which is opposite to the ascent of Adummim, and went down to the stone of Bohan, the son of Reuben,
18 and passed along towards the side opposite to Arabah northwards, and went down to Arabah;
19 and the border passed on to the side of Beth-hoglah on the north, and the border ended at the tongue of the salt sea northward, at the south end of the Jordan: this is the southern border.
20 -And the Jordan borders it on the east side. -This was the inheritance of the children of Benjamin, according to its borders round about, according to their families.
21 And the cities of the tribe of the children of Benjamin according to their families were: Jericho, and Beth-hoglah, and Emek-Keziz,
22 and Beth-Arabah, and Zemaraim, and Bethel,
23 and Avvim, and Parah, and Ophrah,
24 and Chephar-haammonai, and Ophni, and Geba: twelve cities and their hamlets;
25 Gibeon, and Ramah, and Beeroth,
26 and Mizpeh, and Chephirah, and Mozah,
27 and Rekem, and Jirpeel, and Tharalah,
28 and Zelah, Eleph, and Jebusi, that is, Jerusalem, Gibeah, Kirjath: fourteen cities and their hamlets. This was the inheritance of the children of Benjamin according to their families.
1 以色列全体会众聚集在示罗， 把会幕竖立在那里， 因为那地在他们面前被征服了。
2 以色列人其余的七个支派还没有得着产业。
3 约书亚对以色列人说： "耶和华你们列祖的 神赐给你们的地， 你们迟迟不去占领， 要到几时呢？
4 你们每支派要选出三个人， 我要派他们去； 他们要起程走遍那地， 把各支派的产业描绘下来， 然后回到我这里。
5 他们要把地业分作七份， 犹大留在南方他们的境界内； 约瑟家留在北方他们的境界内。
6 你们要把地划分七份， 然后把图样拿给我； 我要在这里， 在耶和华我们的 神面前， 为你们抽签。
7 利未人在你们中间没有业分， 因为耶和华祭司的职分就是他们的产业。迦得支派、流本支派和玛拿西半个支派， 已经在约旦河东得了产业， 就是耶和华的仆人摩西分给他们的。"
8 那些人起程前去的时候， 约书亚吩咐那些前去绘画那地的人说： "你们要去， 走遍那地， 绘画地形， 然后回到我这里来， 我要在示罗这里， 在耶和华面前， 为你们抽签。"
9 那些人就去了， 走遍那地， 并绘画下来， 把众城分作七份记在册子上， 然后回到示罗营中约书亚那里。
10 约书亚就在示罗， 在耶和华面前为他们抽签； 约书亚在那里按着他们的支派把地分给以色列人。
11 便雅悯支派按着家族抽了签； 他们抽签所得的境界， 是在犹大子孙和约瑟子孙中间。
12 他们的疆界， 北边是从约旦河起， 向上到耶利哥的北边， 又向西上到山地， 直到伯．亚文的旷野。
13 又从那里向南经过路斯， 路斯就是伯特利， 再下到亚他绿．亚达， 靠近下伯．和仑南边的山地；
14 又从那里伸延， 绕到西边再向南， 从伯．和仑南边对面的山起， 直到犹大人的城基列．巴力， 基列．巴力就是基列．耶琳； 这是西方的疆界。
15 南方的疆界是从基列．耶琳的边缘起， 向西伸展， 去到尼弗多亚的水泉；
16 又下到欣嫩子谷前面的山边， 就是利乏音谷北面的山； 再下到欣嫩谷， 去到耶布斯人的南边， 又下去隐．罗结；
17 再转向北， 伸展至隐．示麦， 去到亚都冥斜坡对面的基利录， 又下到流本的儿子波罕的磐石那里；
18 又经过亚拉巴对面山坡的北边， 直下到亚拉巴；
19 又经过伯．曷拉的北边， 直通到盐海的北湾， 约旦河的南端； 这是南方的疆界。
20 东方的疆界是约旦河。这就是便雅悯各家族所得的产业四围的疆界。
21 便雅悯支派按着家族所得的城就是： 耶利哥、伯．曷拉、伊麦．基悉、
22 伯．亚拉巴、洗玛莲、伯特利、
23 亚文、巴拉、俄弗拉、
24 基法．阿摩尼、俄弗尼、迦巴， 共十二座城， 还有属于这些城的村庄；
25 又有基遍、拉玛、比录、
