[1] And the second heritage came out for the tribe of Simeon by their
families; and their heritage was in the middle of the heritage of the
children of Judah. [2] And they had for their heritage Beer-sheba and Shema
and Moladah [3] And Hazar-shual and Balah and Ezem [4] And Eltolad and
Bethul and Hormah [5] And Ziklag and Beth-marcaboth and Hazar-susah [6] And
Beth-lebaoth and Sharuhen; thirteen towns with their unwalled places; [7]
Ain, Rimmon, and Ether and Ashan; four towns with their unwalled places;
[8] And all the unwalled places round about these towns as far as
Baalath-beer-ramah to the south. This is the heritage of the tribe of
Simeon by their families. [9] The heritage of Simeon was taken out of
Judah's stretch of land, for Judah's part was more than they had need of,
so the heritage of the children of Simeon was inside their heritage. [10]
And the third heritage came out for Zebulun by their families; the limit of
their heritage was as far as Sarid; [11] And their limit goes up to the
west to Maralah, stretching to Dabbesheth, and to the stream in front of
Jokneam; [12] Then turning east from Sarid to the limit of Chisloth-tabor,
it goes out to Daberath, and up to Japhia; [13] And from there it goes on
east to Gath-hepher, to Eth-kazin; ending at Rimmon which goes as far as
Neah; [14] And the line goes round it on the north to Hannathon, ending at
the valley of Iphtah-el; [15] And Kattath and Nahalal and Shimron and
Idalah and Beth-lehem; twelve towns with their unwalled places. [16] This
is the heritage of the children of Zebulun by their families, these towns
with their unwalled places. [17] For Issachar the fourth heritage came out,
for the children of Issachar by their families; [18] And their limit was to
Jezreel and Chesulloth and Shunem [19] And Hapharaim and Shion and
Anaharath [20] And Rabbith and Kishion and Ebez [21] And Remeth and
En-gannim and En-haddah and Beth-pazzez; [22] And their limit goes as far
as Tabor and Shahazimah and Beth-shemesh, ending at Jordan; sixteen towns
with their unwalled places. [23] This is the heritage of the tribe of the
children of Issachar by their families, these towns with their unwalled
places. [24] And the fifth heritage came out for the tribe of Asher by
their families. [25] And their limit was Helkath and Hali and Beten and
Achshaph [26] And Alammelech and Amad and Mishal, stretching to Carmel on
the west and Shihor-libnath; [27] Turning to the east to Beth-dagon and
stretching to Zebulun and the valley of Iphtah-el as far as Beth-emek and
Neiel to the north; on the left it goes as far as Cabul [28] And Ebron and
Rehob and Hammon and Kanah, to great Zidon; [29] And the limit goes round
to Ramah and the walled town of Tyre and Hosah, ending at the sea by Heleb
and Achzib; [30] And Ummah and Aphek and Rehob; twenty-two towns with their
unwalled places. [31] This is the heritage of the tribe of the children of
Asher by their families, these towns with their unwalled places. [32] For
the children of Naphtali the sixth heritage came out, for the children of
Naphtali by their families; [33] And their limit was from Heleph, from the
oak-tree in Zaanannim, and Adami-hannekeb and Jabneel, as far as Lakkum,
ending at Jordan; [34] And turning west to Aznoth-tabor, the limit goes out
from there to Hukkok, stretching to Zebulun on the south, and Asher on the
west, and Judah at Jordan on the east. [35] And the walled towns are
Ziddim, Zer, and Hammath, Rakkath, and Chinnereth [36] And Adamah and Ramah
and Hazor [37] And Kedesh and Edrei and En-Hazor [38] And Iron and
Migdal-el, Horem and Beth-anath and Beth-shemesh; nineteen towns with their
unwalled places. [39] This is the heritage of the tribe of the children of
Naphtali by their families, these towns with their unwalled places. [40]
For the tribe of Dan by their families the seventh heritage came out; [41]
And the limit of their heritage was Zorah and Eshtaol and Ir-shemesh [42]
And Shaalabbin and Aijalon and Ithlah [43] And Elon and Timnah and Ekron
[44] And Eltekeh and Gibbethon and Baalath [45] And Jehud and Bene-berak
and Gath-rimmon; [46] And on the west was ... opposite Joppa. [47] (But the
limit of the children of Dan was not wide enough for them; so the children
of Dan went up and made war on Leshem and took it, putting it to the sword
without mercy, and they took it for their heritage and made a place for
themselves there, giving it the name of Leshem-dan, after the name of their
father, Dan.) [48] This is the heritage of the tribe of the children of Dan
by their families, these towns with their unwalled places. [49] So the
distribution of the land and its limits was complete; and the children of
Israel gave Joshua, the son of Nun, a heritage among them; [50] By the
orders of the Lord they gave him the town for which he made request,
Timnath-serah in the hill-country of Ephraim: there, after building the
town, he made his living-place. [51] These are the heritages which Eleazar
the priest and Joshua, the son of Nun, and the heads of families of the
tribes of the children of Israel gave out at Shiloh, by the decision of the
Lord, at the door of the Tent of meeting. So the distribution of the land
was complete.
