Now the whole congregation of the children of Israel assembled together at Shiloh, and set up the tabernacle of meeting there. And the land was subdued before them.
"Pick out from among you three men for [each] tribe, and I will send them; they shall rise and go through the land, survey it according to their inheritance, and come [back] to me.
"And they shall divide it into seven parts. Judah shall remain in their territory on the south, and the house of Joseph shall remain in their territory on the north.
"But the Levites have no part among you, for the priesthood of the LORD [is] their inheritance. And Gad, Reuben, and half the tribe of Manasseh have received their inheritance beyond the Jordan on the east, which Moses the servant of the LORD gave them."
Then the men arose to go away; and Joshua charged those who went to survey the land, saying, "Go, walk through the land, survey it, and come back to me, that I may cast lots for you here before the LORD in Shiloh."
Now the lot of the tribe of the children of Benjamin came up according to their families, and the territory of their lot came out between the children of Judah and the children of Joseph.
Their border on the north side began at the Jordan, and the border went up to the side of Jericho on the north, and went up through the mountains westward; it ended at the Wilderness of Beth Aven.
The border went over from there toward Luz, to the side of Luz (which [is] Bethel) southward; and the border descended to Ataroth Addar, near the hill that [lies] on the south side of Lower Beth Horon.
Then the border extended around the west side to the south, from the hill that [lies] before Beth Horon southward; and it ended at Kirjath Baal (which [is] Kirjath Jearim), a city of the children of Judah. This [was] the west side.
Then the border came down to the end of the mountain that [lies] before the Valley of the Son of Hinnom, which [is] in the Valley of the Rephaim on the north, descended to the Valley of Hinnom, to the side of the Jebusite [city] on the south, and descended to En Rogel.
And it went around from the north, went out to En Shemesh, and extended toward Geliloth, which is before the Ascent of Adummim, and descended to the stone of Bohan the son of Reuben.
And the border passed along to the north side of Beth Hoglah; then the border ended at the north bay at the Salt Sea, at the south end of the Jordan. This [was] the southern boundary.
The Jordan was its border on the east side. This [was] the inheritance of the children of Benjamin, according to its boundaries all around, according to their families.
Zelah, Eleph, Jebus (which [is] Jerusalem), Gibeath, [and] Kirjath: fourteen cities with their villages. This was the inheritance of the children of Benjamin according to their families.
