Chap. XVIII.
From the campe of Israel in Silo surueyers are sent to diuide the rest of the
Land into seuen partes, for the seuen tribes yet without portions. 10.
VVhich being donne, Iosue casteth lottes for them, 11. and the first lotte
falleth to Beniamin, 12. whose part is described by the limites, 21. with
the names of the principal cities.
1 And al the children of Israel were assembled in Silo,
and there they pitched the tabernacle of the testimony,
and the Land was subdewed to them.
2 But there remained
seuen tribes of the children of Israel, which as yet had not
receiued their possessions.
3 To whom Iosue said: How long
are you slack with cowardenes, and enter not to possesse the
Land, which our Lord the God of your fathers hath geuen
you?
4 Choose of euerie tribe three men, that I may send
them, and they may goe and circuite the Land, and marke it
out according to the number note of euerie multitude: and
report vnto me that which they haue marked out.
5 Diuide
vnto you the Land into seuen partes: let Iudas be in his
boundes on the south quarter, and the house of Ioseph on
the North.
6 the Land in the middes betwen these marke
out into seuen partes: and you shal come hither to me, that
note before our Lord your God I may cast the lotte for you:
7 for the Leuites part is not among you, but the priesthood
of our Lord is their inheritance. And Gad and Ruben, and
the half tribe of Manasses had now receiued their possessions
beyond Iordan at the East side: which Moyses the seruant of
our Lord gaue them.
8 And when the men were rysen vp,
that they might goe to marke out the land, Iosue commanded
them, saying: Circuite the Land and marke it out,
and returne to me: that here before our Lord, in Silo I may
cast the lotte for you.
9 They therfore went on: and going
ouer it, diuided it into seuen partes, writing it in a volume.
And they returned to Iosue into the campe in Silo.
10 Who
did cast lottes before our Lord in Silo, and diuided the Land
to the children of Israel into seuen partes.
11 And first came
vp the lotte of the children of Beniamin by their families, to
possesse the Land betwen the children of Iudas and the children
of Ioseph.
12 And their border was against the North
from Iordan: going forward by the side of Iericho on the
north quarter, and thence Westward rysing vp vnto the

Beniamins portion.
mountaines, and reaching to the wildernes of Bethauen,
13 & passing through by Luza to the South, the same is Bethel:
and goeth downe into Ataroth addar vnto the mountaine,
that is on the South of Bethhoron the lower.
14 And it bendeth
compassing against the sea, Southward of the mountaine
that looketh to Bethhoron against the South: and the issues
therof are into Cariathbaal, which is called also Cariathbaal
which is called also Cariathiarim, a citie of the children of
Iudas. This is their coast against the sea, toward the West.
15 But on the South from part of Cariathiarim the border
issueth forth against the sea, and cometh to the fountaine of
the waters of Nephtoa.
16 And it goeth downe into part of
the mountaine that looketh toward the Valley of the children
of Ennom: and is against the north quarter in the vttermost
part of the Valley raphaim, And it goeth downe into
Gehennom (that is, the valley of Ennom) by the side of the
Iebuseire to the South: and cometh to the Fountaine of
Rogel,
17 passing to the north, and going forth to Ensemes,
that is to say, the fountaine of the sunne:
18 and it passeth
vnto the litle hilles, that are against the ascent of Adommim:
and goeth downe to Abenboen, that is, the stone of
Boen the sonne of Ruben: and it passeth on the north side
to the champaine countries: and goeth downe into the
playne,
19 and passeth by against the North of Bethagla:
and the issues therof are against the brincke of the most salt
sea on the North in the end of Iordan to the south quarter:
20 which is the border therof on the East. This is the possession
of the children of Beniamin by their borders round
about, and their families.
21 And their cities were, Iericho
and Bethhagla and Vallis Casis,

and Bethel,
