Joshua 18

Joshua Chapter 18 KJV

1The tabernacle is set up at Shiloh. 2Joshua causeth the remainder of the land not yet divided to be described into seven parts. 8The description of it is made and brought to Joshua. 10He distributeth it by lot. 11The lot and border of the children of Benjamin. 21Their cities.
1 And the whole congregation of the children of Israel assembled together at 1Shiloh, and set up the 2tabernacle of the congregation there. And the land was subdued before them.
2 And there remained among the children of Israel seven tribes, which had not yet received their inheritance.
3 And Joshua said unto the children of Israel, 1How long are ye slack to go to possess the land, which the Lord God of your fathers hath given you?
4 Give out from among you three men for each tribe: and I will send them, and they shall rise, and go through the land, 1and describe it according to the inheritance of them; and they shall come again to me.
5 And they shall divide it into seven parts: 1Judah shall abide in their coast on the south, and the house of Joseph shall abide in their coasts on the north.
6 Ye 1shall therefore describe the land into seven parts, and bring the description hither to me, that I may cast lots for you here before the Lord our God.
7 But the 1Levites have no part among you; for the priesthood of the Lord is their inheritance: and 2Gad, and Reuben, and half the tribe of Manasseh, have received their inheritance beyond Jordan on the east, which Moses the servant of the Lord 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, that I may here 1cast lots for you before the Lord in Shiloh.
9 And the men went and passed through the land, and described it by cities into seven parts in a book, and came again to Joshua to the host at Shiloh.
10 ¶ And Joshua 1cast lots for them in Shiloh before the Lord: and there Joshua divided the land unto the children of Israel according to 2their divisions.
11 ¶ And the lot of the tribe of the children of Benjamin came up according to their families: and the coast of their lot came forth 1between the children of Judah and the children of Joseph.
12 1And their border on the north side was from Jordan; and the border went up to the side of 2Jericho on the north side, and went up through the mountains westward; and the goings out thereof were at the 3wilderness of 4Beth-aven.
13 And the border went over from thence toward 1Luz, to the side of Luz, which is 2Beth-el, southward; and the border descended to 3Ataroth-adar, near the hill that lieth on the south side of the nether Beth-horon.
14 And the border was drawn thence, and compassed the corner of 1the sea southward, from the hill that lieth before Beth-horon southward; and the goings out thereof were at 2Kirjath-baal, which is Kirjath-jearim, a city of the children of Judah: this was the west quarter.
15 And the south quarter was from the end of Kirjath-jearim, and the border went out on the west, and went out to the well of waters of 1Nephtoah:
16 And the border came down to the end of the 1mountain that lieth before the valley of the son of Hinnom, and which is in the 2valley of the giants on the north, and descended to the 3valley of Hinnom, to the side of 4Jebusi on the south, and descended to 5En-rogel,
17 And was drawn from the north, and went forth to En-shemesh, and went forth toward 1Geliloth, which is over against the going up of Adummim, and descended to 2the stone of Bohan the son of Reuben,
18 And passed along toward the side over against aArabah northward, and went down unto Arabah:
19 And the border passed along to the side of 1Beth-hoglah northward: and the outgoings of the border were at the north abay of 2the salt sea at the south end of 3Jordan: this was the south coast.
20 And Jordan was the border of it on the east side. This was the inheritance of the children of Benjamin, by the coasts thereof round about, according to their families.
21 Now the cities of the tribe of the children of Benjamin according to their families were 1Jericho, and 2Beth-hoglah, and the valley of Keziz,
22 And 1Beth-arabah, and Zemaraim, and 2Beth-el,
23 And Avim, and Parah, and 1Ophrah,
24 And Chephar-haammonai, and Ophni, and 1Gaba; twelve cities with their villages:
25 1Gibeon, and 2Ramah, and 3Beeroth,
26 And 1Mizpeh, and Chephirah, and Mozah,
27 And Rekem, and Irpeel, and Taralah,
28 And 1Zelah, Eleph, and 2Jebusi, which is Jerusalem, Gibeath, and Kirjath; fourteen cities with their villages. This is the inheritance of the children of Benjamin 3according to their families.
