* And the whole congregation of the children of Israel assembled together at Shiloh , and set up the tabernacle of the congregation there . And the land was subdued before them . * And there remained among the children of Israel seven tribes , which had not yet received their inheritance . * And Joshua said unto the children of Israel Yisra #el #, How long are ye slack to go to possess the land , which the LORD God of your fathers hath given you ? * Give out from among you three men for each tribe : and I will send them , and they shall rise , and go through the land , and describe it according to the inheritance of them ; and they shall come again to me . * And they shall divide it into seven parts : Judah shall abide in their coast on the south , and the house of Joseph shall abide in their coasts on the north . * Ye shall 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 . * But the Levites have no part among you ; for the priesthood of the LORD is their inheritance : and Gad , and Reuben R @#uwben #, and half the tribe of Manasseh , have received their inheritance beyond Jordan on the east , which Moses the servant of the LORD gave them . * 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 cast lots for you before the LORD in Shiloh . * 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 . * And Joshua cast lots for them in Shiloh before the LORD : and there Joshua divided the land unto the children of Israel according to their divisions . * 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 between the children of Judah and the children of Joseph . * And their border on the north side was from Jordan ; and the border went up to the side of Jericho on the north side , and went up through the mountains westward ; and the goings out thereof were at the wilderness of Bethaven Beyth . * And the border went over from thence toward Luz , to the side of Luz , which is Bethel Beyth -#El #, southward ; and the border descended to Atarothadar #Atrowth , near the hill that lieth on the south side of the nether Bethhoron Beyth . * And the border was drawn thence , and compassed the corner of the sea southward , from the hill that lieth before Bethhoron Beythsouthward ; and the goings out thereof were at Kirjathbaal Qiryath Ba #al #, which is Kirjathjearim Qiryath Y @#ariym #, a city of the children of Judah : this was the west quarter pe #ah #. * And the south quarter was from the end of Kirjathjearim Qiryath Y @#ariym #, and the border went out on the west , and went out to the well of waters of Nephtoah : * And the border came down to the end of the mountain that lieth before the valley of the son of Hinnom , and which is in the valley of the giants on the north , and descended to the valley of Hinnom , to the side of Jebusi on the south , and descended to Enrogel #Eyn , * And was drawn from the north , and went forth to Enshemesh #Eyn , and went forth toward Geliloth , which is over against the going up of Adummim , and descended to the stone of Bohan the son of Reuben R @#uwben #, * And passed along toward the side over against Arabah northward , and went down unto Arabah : * And the border passed along to the side of Bethhoglah Beythnorthward : and the outgoings of the border were at the north bay of the salt sea at the south end of Jordan : this was the south coast . * And Jordan was the border of it on the east side pe #ah #. This was the inheritance of the children of Benjamin , by the coasts thereof round about , according to their families . * Now the cities of the tribe of the children of Benjamin according to their families were Jericho , and Bethhoglah Beyth , and the valley of Keziz , * And Betharabah Beyth ha -#Arabah #, and Zemaraim , and Bethel Beyth -#El #, * And Avim , and Parah , and Ophrah , * And Chepharhaammonai K @phar ha -#Ammowniy #, and Ophni , and Gaba ; twelve sh @nayim # cities with their villages : * Gibeon Gib #own #, and Ramah , and Beeroth B @#erowth #, * And Mizpeh , and Chephirah , and Mozah , * And Rekem , and Irpeel Yirp @#el #, and Taralah Tar #alah #, * And Zelah , Eleph , and Jebusi , which is Jerusalem , Gibeath Gib #ath #, and Kirjath Qiryath Y @#ariym #; fourteen #H6240cities with their villages . This is the inheritance of the children of Benjamin according to their families .
