18:11 The allocation to Benyamin’s descendants
11 The tribe of Benyamin won the first draw and the area for their clans was between the land assigned to Yehudah and that assigned to Efraim and Manashsheh. 12 Their northern border went from the Yordan then to the northern side of Yericho and up into the hill country to the west, coming out in the wilderness at Beyt-Aven. 13 Then it went across towards Luz (now called Bethel) to the southern edge then downhill towards Atarot-Addar beside the hill south of lower Beyt-Horon. 14 Then the western border turned from that hill and went south, coming out at Kiriat-Baal (also called Kiriat-Yearim—a town belonging to Yehudah) thus forming the western side. 15 The southern border went west from Kiriat-Yearim to the spring at Neftoah, 16 then downhill to the Ben-Hinnon valley (in the valley of the Refaites to the north) then downhill to Hinnon valley to the edge of the Yebusites and downhill to En-Rogel. 17 Then it turned northward and went west to En-Shemesh and across to Gelilot opposite the Adummim pass, before going downhill to to the Stone of Bohan (Reuben’s son). 18 It extended over to the northern slope of the Yordan valley and then downhill into the actual valley. 19 It then went east to the northern slope of Beyt-Hoglah before coming out at the north end of the Dead Sea (also called the Salt Sea) where the Yordan river flows into it. That was the southern boundary 20 and the Yordan borders it on the east. Those were the borders of Benyamin’s descendants’ inheritance according to their clans.
21 The cities allocated to Benyamin’s descendants and their clans were: Yericho, Beyt-Hoglah, Emek-Keziz, 22 Beyt-Arabah, Zemaraim, Bethel, 23 Avvim, Parah, Ofrah, 24 Kefar-Ammoni, Ofni, and Geba—a total of twelve cities as well as their surrounding villages. 25 Also Gibeon, Ramah, Beerot, 26 Mizpah, Kefirah, Mozah, 27 Rekem, Irpeel, Taralah, 28 Zelah, Haelef, Yebus (now called Yerushalem), Gibeah, and Kiriat—a total of fourteen cities as well as their surrounding villages. Those were Benyamin’s descendants’ inheritance according to their clans.
