1The second allotment of land went to the clans of the tribe of Simeon. Their homeland was surrounded by Judah’s territory.1וַיֵּצֵ֞א הַגּוֹרָ֤ל הַשֵּׁנִי֙ לְשִׁמְע֔וֹן לְמַטֵּ֥ה בְנֵֽי־ שִׁמְע֖וֹן לְמִשְׁפְּחוֹתָ֑ם וַֽיְהִי֙ נַֽחֲלָתָ֔ם בְּת֖וֹךְ נַחֲלַ֥ת בְּנֵֽי־ יְהוּדָֽה׃
2Simeon’s homeland included Beersheba, Sheba, Moladah,2וַיְהִ֥י לָהֶ֖ם בְּנַֽחֲלָתָ֑ם בְּאֵֽר־ שֶׁ֥בַע וְשֶׁ֖בַע וּמוֹלָדָֽה׃
3Hazar-shual, Balah, Ezem,3וַחֲצַ֥ר שׁוּעָ֛ל וּבָלָ֖ה וָעָֽצֶם׃
4Eltolad, Bethul, Hormah,4וְאֶלְתּוֹלַ֥ד וּבְת֖וּל וְחָרְמָֽה׃
5Ziklag, Beth-marcaboth, Hazar-susah,5וְצִֽקְלַ֥ג וּבֵית־ הַמַּרְכָּב֖וֹת וַחֲצַ֥ר סוּסָֽה׃
6Beth-lebaoth, and Sharuhen—thirteen towns with their surrounding villages.6וּבֵ֥ית לְבָא֖וֹת וְשָֽׁרוּחֶ֑ן עָרִ֥ים שְׁלֹשׁ־ עֶשְׂרֵ֖ה וְחַצְרֵיהֶֽן׃
7It also included Ain, Rimmon, Ether, and Ashan—four towns with their villages,7עַ֥יִן ׀ רִמּ֖וֹן וָעֶ֣תֶר וְעָשָׁ֑ן עָרִ֥ים אַרְבַּ֖ע וְחַצְרֵיהֶֽן׃
8including all the surrounding villages as far south as Baalath-beer (also known as Ramah of the Negev). This was the homeland allocated to the clans of the tribe of Simeon.8וְכָל־ הַֽחֲצֵרִ֗ים אֲשֶׁ֤ר סְבִיבוֹת֙ הֶֽעָרִ֣ים הָאֵ֔לֶּה עַד־ בַּֽעֲלַ֥ת בְּאֵ֖ר רָ֣אמַת נֶ֑גֶב זֹ֗את נַחֲלַ֛ת מַטֵּ֥ה בְנֵֽי־ שִׁמְע֖וֹן לְמִשְׁפְּחֹתָֽם׃
9Their allocation of land came from part of what had been given to Judah because Judah’s territory was too large for them. So the tribe of Simeon received an allocation within the territory of Judah. The Land Given to Zebulun9מֵחֶ֙בֶל֙ בְּנֵ֣י יְהוּדָ֔ה נַחֲלַ֖ת בְּנֵ֣י שִׁמְע֑וֹן כִּֽי־ הָיָ֞ה חֵ֤לֶק בְּנֵֽי־ יְהוּדָה֙ רַ֣ב מֵהֶ֔ם וַיִּנְחֲל֥וּ בְנֵֽי־ שִׁמְע֖וֹן בְּת֥וֹךְ נַחֲלָתָֽם׃ פ
10The third allotment of land went to the clans of the tribe of Zebulun. The boundary of Zebulun’s homeland started at Sarid.10וַיַּ֙עַל֙ הַגּוֹרָ֣ל הַשְּׁלִישִׁ֔י לִבְנֵ֥י זְבוּלֻ֖ן לְמִשְׁפְּחֹתָ֑ם וַיְהִ֛י גְּב֥וּל נַחֲלָתָ֖ם עַד־ שָׂרִֽיד׃
11From there it went west, going past Maralah, touching Dabbesheth, and proceeding to the brook east of Jokneam.11וְעָלָ֨ה גְבוּלָ֧ם ׀ לַיָּ֛מָּה וּמַרְעֲלָ֖ה וּפָגַ֣ע בְּדַבָּ֑שֶׁת וּפָגַע֙ אֶל־ הַנַּ֔חַל אֲשֶׁ֖ר עַל־ פְּנֵ֥י יָקְנְעָֽם׃
12In the other direction, the boundary went east from Sarid to the border of Kisloth-tabor, and from there to Daberath and up to Japhia.12וְשָׁ֣ב מִשָּׂרִ֗יד קֵ֚דְמָה מִזְרַ֣ח הַשֶּׁ֔מֶשׁ עַל־ גְּב֥וּל כִּסְלֹ֖ת תָּבֹ֑ר וְיָצָ֥א אֶל־ הַדָּֽבְרַ֖ת וְעָלָ֥ה יָפִֽיעַ׃
13Then it continued east to Gath-hepher, Eth-kazin, and Rimmon and turned toward Neah.13וּמִשָּׁ֤ם עָבַר֙ קֵ֣דְמָה מִזְרָ֔חָה גִּתָּ֥ה חֵ֖פֶר עִתָּ֣ה קָצִ֑ין וְיָצָ֛א רִמּ֥וֹן הַמְּתֹאָ֖ר הַנֵּעָֽה׃
14The northern boundary of Zebulun passed Hannathon and ended at the valley of Iphtah-el.14וְנָסַ֤ב אֹתוֹ֙ הַגְּב֔וּל מִצְּפ֖וֹן חַנָּתֹ֑ן וְהָיוּ֙ תֹּֽצְאֹתָ֔יו גֵּ֖י יִפְתַּח־ אֵֽל׃
15The towns in these areas included Kattath, Nahalal, Shimron, Idalah, and Bethlehem—twelve towns with their surrounding villages.15וְקַטָּ֤ת וְנַֽהֲלָל֙ וְשִׁמְר֔וֹן וְיִדְאֲלָ֖ה וּבֵ֣ית לָ֑חֶם עָרִ֥ים שְׁתֵּים־ עֶשְׂרֵ֖ה וְחַצְרֵיהֶֽן׃
16The homeland allocated to the clans of the tribe of Zebulun included these towns and their surrounding villages. The Land Given to Issachar16זֹ֛את נַחֲלַ֥ת בְּנֵֽי־ זְבוּלֻ֖ן לְמִשְׁפְּחוֹתָ֑ם הֶֽעָרִ֥ים הָאֵ֖לֶּה וְחַצְרֵיהֶֽן׃ פ
17The fourth allotment of land went to the clans of the tribe of Issachar.17לְיִ֨שָּׂשכָ֔ר יָצָ֖א הַגּוֹרָ֣ל הָֽרְבִיעִ֑י לִבְנֵ֥י יִשָּׂשכָ֖ר לְמִשְׁפְּחוֹתָֽם׃
18Its boundaries included the following towns: Jezreel, Kesulloth, Shunem,18וַיְהִ֖י גְּבוּלָ֑ם יִזְרְעֶ֥אלָה וְהַכְּסוּלֹ֖ת וְשׁוּנֵֽם׃
19Hapharaim, Shion, Anaharath,19וַחֲפָרַ֥יִם וְשִׁיאֹ֖ן וַאֲנָחֲרַֽת׃
20Rabbith, Kishion, Ebez,20וְהָֽרַבִּ֥ית וְקִשְׁי֖וֹן וָאָֽבֶץ׃
21Remeth, En-gannim, En-haddah, and Beth-pazzez.21וְרֶ֧מֶת וְעֵין־ גַּנִּ֛ים וְעֵ֥ין חַדָּ֖ה וּבֵ֥ית פַּצֵּֽץ׃
22The boundary also touched Tabor, Shahazumah, and Beth-shemesh, ending at the Jordan River—sixteen towns with their surrounding villages.22וּפָגַע֩ הַגְּב֨וּל בְּתָב֤וֹר [ושחצומה] (וְשַׁחֲצִ֙ימָה֙) וּבֵ֣ית שֶׁ֔מֶשׁ וְהָי֛וּ תֹּצְא֥וֹת גְּבוּלָ֖ם הַיַּרְדֵּ֑ן עָרִ֥ים שֵׁשׁ־ עֶשְׂרֵ֖ה וְחַצְרֵיהֶֽן׃
23The homeland allocated to the clans of the tribe of Issachar included these towns and their surrounding villages. The Land Given to Asher23זֹ֗את נַחֲלַ֛ת מַטֵּ֥ה בְנֵֽי־ יִשָּׂשכָ֖ר לְמִשְׁפְּחֹתָ֑ם הֶעָרִ֖ים וְחַצְרֵיהֶֽן׃ פ
24The fifth allotment of land went to the clans of the tribe of Asher.24וַיֵּצֵא֙ הַגּוֹרָ֣ל הַֽחֲמִישִׁ֔י לְמַטֵּ֥ה בְנֵֽי־ אָשֵׁ֖ר לְמִשְׁפְּחוֹתָֽם׃
25Its boundaries included these towns: Helkath, Hali, Beten, Acshaph,25וַיְהִ֖י גְּבוּלָ֑ם חֶלְקַ֥ת וַחֲלִ֖י וָבֶ֥טֶן וְאַכְשָֽׁף׃
26Allammelech, Amad, and Mishal. The boundary on the west touched Carmel and Shihor-libnath,26וְאַֽלַמֶּ֥לֶךְ וְעַמְעָ֖ד וּמִשְׁאָ֑ל וּפָגַ֤ע בְּכַרְמֶל֙ הַיָּ֔מָּה וּבְשִׁיח֖וֹר לִבְנָֽת׃
27then it turned east toward Beth-dagon, and ran as far as Zebulun in the valley of Iphtah-el, going north to Beth-emek and Neiel. It then continued north to Cabul,27וְשָׁ֨ב מִזְרַ֣ח הַשֶּׁמֶשׁ֮ בֵּ֣ית דָּגֹן֒ וּפָגַ֣ע בִּ֠זְבֻלוּן וּבְגֵ֨י יִפְתַּח־ אֵ֥ל צָפ֛וֹנָה בֵּ֥ית הָעֵ֖מֶק וּנְעִיאֵ֑ל וְיָצָ֥א אֶל־ כָּב֖וּל מִשְּׂמֹֽאל׃
28Abdon, Rehob, Hammon, Kanah, and as far as Greater Sidon.28וְעֶבְרֹ֥ן וּרְחֹ֖ב וְחַמּ֣וֹן וְקָנָ֑ה עַ֖ד צִיד֥וֹן רַבָּֽה׃
29Then the boundary turned toward Ramah and the fortress of Tyre, where it turned toward Hosah and came to the Mediterranean Sea. The territory also included Mehebel, Aczib,29וְשָׁ֤ב הַגְּבוּל֙ הָֽרָמָ֔ה וְעַד־ עִ֖יר מִבְצַר־ צֹ֑ר וְשָׁ֤ב הַגְּבוּל֙ חֹסָ֔ה [ויהיו] (וְהָי֧וּ) תֹצְאֹתָ֛יו הַיָּ֖מָּה מֵחֶ֥בֶל אַכְזִֽיבָה׃
30Ummah, Aphek, and Rehob—twenty-two towns with their surrounding villages.30וְעֻמָ֥ה וַאֲפֵ֖ק וּרְחֹ֑ב עָרִ֛ים עֶשְׂרִ֥ים וּשְׁתַּ֖יִם וְחַצְרֵיהֶֽן׃
31The homeland allocated to the clans of the tribe of Asher included these towns and their surrounding villages. The Land Given to Naphtali31זֹ֗את נַחֲלַ֛ת מַטֵּ֥ה בְנֵֽי־ אָשֵׁ֖ר לְמִשְׁפְּחֹתָ֑ם הֶעָרִ֥ים הָאֵ֖לֶּה וְחַצְרֵיהֶֽן׃ פ
32The sixth allotment of land went to the clans of the tribe of Naphtali.32לִבְנֵ֣י נַפְתָּלִ֔י יָצָ֖א הַגּוֹרָ֣ל הַשִּׁשִּׁ֑י לִבְנֵ֥י נַפְתָּלִ֖י לְמִשְׁפְּחֹתָֽם׃
33Its boundary ran from Heleph, from the oak at Zaanannim, and extended across to Adami-nekeb, Jabneel, and as far as Lakkum, ending at the Jordan River.33וַיְהִ֣י גְבוּלָ֗ם מֵחֵ֨לֶף מֵֽאֵל֜וֹן בְּצַעֲנַנִּ֗ים וַאֲדָמִ֥י הַנֶּ֛קֶב וְיַבְנְאֵ֖ל עַד־ לַקּ֑וּם וַיְהִ֥י תֹצְאֹתָ֖יו הַיַּרְדֵּֽן׃
34The western boundary ran past Aznoth-tabor, then to Hukkok, and touched the border of Zebulun in the south, the border of Asher on the west, and the Jordan River on the east.34וְשָׁ֨ב הַגְּב֥וּל יָ֙מָּה֙ אַזְנ֣וֹת תָּב֔וֹר וְיָצָ֥א מִשָּׁ֖ם חוּקֹ֑קָה וּפָגַ֨ע בִּזְבֻל֜וּן מִנֶּ֗גֶב וּבְאָשֵׁר֙ פָּגַ֣ע מִיָּ֔ם וּבִ֣יהוּדָ֔ה הַיַּרְדֵּ֖ן מִזְרַ֥ח הַשָּֽׁמֶשׁ׃
35The fortified towns included in this territory were Ziddim, Zer, Hammath, Rakkath, Kinnereth,35וְעָרֵ֖י מִבְצָ֑ר הַצִּדִּ֣ים צֵ֔ר וְחַמַּ֖ת רַקַּ֥ת וְכִנָּֽרֶת׃
36Adamah, Ramah, Hazor,36וַאֲדָמָ֥ה וְהָרָמָ֖ה וְחָצֽוֹר׃
37Kedesh, Edrei, En-hazor,37וְקֶ֥דֶשׁ וְאֶדְרֶ֖עִי וְעֵ֥ין חָצֽוֹר׃
38Yiron, Migdal-el, Horem, Beth-anath, and Beth-shemesh—nineteen towns with their surrounding villages.38וְיִרְאוֹן֙ וּמִגְדַּל־ אֵ֔ל חֳרֵ֥ם וּבֵית־ עֲנָ֖ת וּבֵ֣ית שָׁ֑מֶשׁ עָרִ֥ים תְּשַֽׁע־ עֶשְׂרֵ֖ה וְחַצְרֵיהֶֽן׃
39The homeland allocated to the clans of the tribe of Naphtali included these towns and their surrounding villages. The Land Given to Dan39זֹ֗את נַחֲלַ֛ת מַטֵּ֥ה בְנֵֽי־ נַפְתָּלִ֖י לְמִשְׁפְּחֹתָ֑ם הֶעָרִ֖ים וְחַצְרֵיהֶֽן׃ פ
40The seventh allotment of land went to the clans of the tribe of Dan.40לְמַטֵּ֥ה בְנֵי־ דָ֖ן לְמִשְׁפְּחֹתָ֑ם יָצָ֖א הַגּוֹרָ֥ל הַשְּׁבִיעִֽי׃
41The land allocated as their homeland included the following towns: Zorah, Eshtaol, Ir-shemesh,41וַיְהִ֖י גְּב֣וּל נַחֲלָתָ֑ם צָרְעָ֥ה וְאֶשְׁתָּא֖וֹל וְעִ֥יר שָֽׁמֶשׁ׃
42Shaalabbin, Aijalon, Ithlah,42וְשַֽׁעֲלַבִּ֥ין וְאַיָּל֖וֹן וְיִתְלָֽה׃
43Elon, Timnah, Ekron,43וְאֵיל֥וֹן וְתִמְנָ֖תָה וְעֶקְרֽוֹן׃
44Eltekeh, Gibbethon, Baalath,44וְאֶלְתְּקֵ֥ה וְגִבְּת֖וֹן וּבַעֲלָֽת׃
45Jehud, Bene-berak, Gath-rimmon,45וִיהֻ֥ד וּבְנֵֽי־ בְרַ֖ק וְגַת־ רִמּֽוֹן׃
46Me-jarkon, Rakkon, and the territory across from Joppa.46וּמֵ֥י הַיַּרְק֖וֹן וְהָֽרַקּ֑וֹן עִֽם־ הַגְּב֖וּל מ֥וּל יָפֽוֹ׃
47But the tribe of Dan had trouble taking possession of their land, so they attacked the town of Laish. They captured it, slaughtered its people, and settled there. They renamed the town Dan after their ancestor.47וַיֵּצֵ֥א גְבוּל־ בְּנֵי־ דָ֖ן מֵהֶ֑ם וַיַּעֲל֣וּ בְנֵֽי־ דָ֠ן וַיִּלָּחֲמ֨וּ עִם־ לֶ֜שֶׁם וַיִּלְכְּד֥וּ אוֹתָ֣הּ ׀ וַיַּכּ֧וּ אוֹתָ֣הּ לְפִי־ חֶ֗רֶב וַיִּֽרְשׁ֤וּ אוֹתָהּ֙ וַיֵּ֣שְׁבוּ בָ֔הּ וַיִּקְרְא֤וּ לְלֶ֙שֶׁם֙ דָּ֔ן כְּשֵׁ֖ם דָּ֥ן אֲבִיהֶֽם׃
48The homeland allocated to the clans of the tribe of Dan included these towns and their surrounding villages. The Land Given to Joshua48זֹ֗את נַחֲלַ֛ת מַטֵּ֥ה בְנֵי־ דָ֖ן לְמִשְׁפְּחֹתָ֑ם הֶֽעָרִ֥ים הָאֵ֖לֶּה וְחַצְרֵיהֶֽן׃ פ
49After all the land was divided among the tribes, the Israelites gave a piece of land to Joshua as his allocation.49וַיְכַלּ֥וּ לִנְחֹל־ אֶת־ הָאָ֖רֶץ לִגְבֽוּלֹתֶ֑יהָ וַיִּתְּנ֨וּ בְנֵי־ יִשְׂרָאֵ֧ל נַחֲלָ֛ה לִיהוֹשֻׁ֥עַ בִּן־ נ֖וּן בְּתוֹכָֽם׃
50For the LORD had said he could have any town he wanted. He chose Timnath-serah in the hill country of Ephraim. He rebuilt the town and lived there.50עַל־ פִּ֨י יְהוָ֜ה נָ֣תְנוּ ל֗וֹ אֶת־ הָעִיר֙ אֲשֶׁ֣ר שָׁאָ֔ל אֶת־ תִּמְנַת־ סֶ֖רַח בְּהַ֣ר אֶפְרָ֑יִם וַיִּבְנֶ֥ה אֶת־ הָעִ֖יר וַיֵּ֥שֶׁב בָּֽהּ׃
51These are the territories that Eleazar the priest, Joshua son of Nun, and the tribal leaders allocated as grants of land to the tribes of Israel by casting sacred lots in the presence of the LORD at the entrance of the Tabernacle at Shiloh. So the division of the land was completed.51אֵ֣לֶּה הַנְּחָלֹ֡ת אֲשֶׁ֣ר נִחֲל֣וּ אֶלְעָזָ֣ר הַכֹּהֵ֣ן ׀ וִיהוֹשֻׁ֪עַ בִּן־ נ֟וּן וְרָאשֵׁ֣י הָֽאָב֣וֹת לְמַטּוֹת֩ בְּנֵי־ יִשְׂרָאֵ֨ל ׀ בְּגוֹרָ֤ל ׀ בְּשִׁלֹה֙ לִפְנֵ֣י יְהוָ֔ה פֶּ֖תַח אֹ֣הֶל מוֹעֵ֑ד וַיְכַלּ֕וּ מֵֽחַלֵּ֖ק אֶת־ הָאָֽרֶץ׃ פ
