Joshua 18:11-20

The Inheritance for Benjamin

11The lot of the tribe of the people of Benjamin according to its clans came up, and the territory allotted to it fell between the people of Judah and the people of Joseph. 12 aOn the north side their boundary began at the Jordan. bThen the boundary goes up to the shoulder north of Jericho, then up through the hill country westward, and it ends at the wilderness of cBeth-aven. 13From there the boundary passes along southward in the direction of Luz, to the shoulder of dLuz (that is, Bethel), then the boundary goes down to eAtaroth-addar, on the mountain that lies south of Lower fBeth-horon. 14Then the boundary goes in another direction, turning on the gwestern side southward from the mountain that lies to the south, opposite Beth-horon, and it ends at Kiriath-baal ( hthat is, Kiriath-jearim), a city belonging to the people of Judah. This forms the western side. 15And the southern side begins at the outskirts of Kiriath-jearim. And the boundary goes from there to Ephron,
See 15:9; Hebrew westward
jto the spring of the waters of Nephtoah.
16Then the boundary goes down to the border of the mountain that overlooks kthe Valley of the Son of Hinnom, which is at the north end of the Valley of lRephaim. And it then goes down the mValley of Hinnom, south of the shoulder of the Jebusites, and downward to nEn-rogel. 17Then it bends in a northerly direction going on to En-shemesh, and from there goes to Geliloth, which is opposite the ascent of Adummim. Then it goes down to othe stone of Bohan the son of Reuben, 18and passing on to the north of pthe shoulder of Beth-arabah
Septuagint; Hebrew  to the shoulder over against the Arabah
it goes down to rthe Arabah.
19Then the boundary passes on to the north of the shoulder of sBeth-hoglah. And the boundary ends at the northern bay of tthe Salt Sea, at the south end of the Jordan: this is the southern border. 20The Jordan forms its boundary on the eastern side. This is the inheritance of the people of Benjamin, according to their clans, boundary by boundary all around.
