约书亚记 18
1 以色列的全会众都聚集在示罗，把会幕设立在那里，那地已经被他们制伏了。
The whole congregation of the children of Israel assembled themselves together at Shiloh, and set up the Tent of Meeting there. The land was subdued before them.
2 以色列人中其余的七个支派还没有分给他们地业。
Seven tribes remained amongst the children of Israel, which had not yet divided their inheritance.
3 约书亚对以色列人说：“耶和华—你们列祖的 神所赐给你们的地，你们耽延不去得，要到几时呢？
Joshua said to the children of Israel, “How long will you neglect to go in to possess the land, which the LORD, the God of your fathers, has given you?
4 你们每支派当选举三个人，我要打发他们去，他们就要起身走遍那地，按着各支派应得的地业写明，就回到我这里来。
Appoint for yourselves three men from each tribe. I will send them, and they shall arise, walk through the land, and describe it according to their inheritance; then they shall come to me.
5 他们要将地分做七分；犹大仍在南方，住在他的境内。约瑟家仍在北方，住在他的境内。
They shall divide it into seven portions. Judah shall live in his borders on the south, and the house of Joseph shall live in their borders on the north.
6 你们要将地分做七分，写明了拿到我这里来。我要在耶和华—我们 神面前，为你们拈阄。
You shall survey the land into seven parts, and bring the description here to me; and I will cast lots for you here before the LORD our God.
7 利未人在你们中间没有分，因为供耶和华祭司的职任就是他们的产业。迦得支派、吕便支派，和玛拿西半支派已经在约旦河东得了地业，就是耶和华仆人摩西所给他们的。”
However, the Levites have no portion amongst you; for the priesthood of the LORD is their inheritance. Gad, Reuben, and the half-tribe of Manasseh have received their inheritance east of the Jordan, which Moses the servant of the LORD gave them.”
8 划地势的人起身去的时候，约书亚嘱咐他们说：“你们去走遍那地，划明地势，就回到我这里来。我要在示罗这里，耶和华面前，为你们拈阄。”
The men arose and went. Joshua commanded those who went to survey the land, saying, “Go walk through the land, survey it, and come again to me. I will cast lots for you here before the LORD in Shiloh.”
9 他们就去了，走遍那地，按着城邑分做七分，写在册子上，回到示罗营中见约书亚。
The men went and passed through the land, and surveyed it by cities into seven portions in a book. They came to Joshua to the camp at Shiloh.
10 约书亚就在示罗，耶和华面前，为他们拈阄。约书亚在那里，按着以色列人的支派，将地分给他们。
Joshua cast lots for them in Shiloh before the LORD. There Joshua divided the land to the children of Israel according to their divisions.
11 便雅悯支派，按着宗族拈阄所得之地，是在犹大、约瑟子孙中间。
The lot of the tribe of the children of Benjamin came up according to their families. The border of their lot went out between the children of Judah and the children of Joseph.
12 他们的北界是从约旦河起，往上贴近耶利哥的北边；又往西通过山地，直到伯·亚文的旷野；
Their border on the north quarter was from the Jordan. The border went up to the side of Jericho on the north, and went up through the hill country westward. It ended at the wilderness of Beth Aven.
13 从那里往南接连到路斯，贴近路斯（路斯就是伯特利），又下到亚他绿·亚达，靠近下伯·和 南边的山；
The border passed along from there to Luz, to the side of Luz (also called Bethel), southward. The border went down to Ataroth Addar, by the mountain that lies on the south of Beth Horon the lower.
14 从那里往西，又转向南，从伯·和 南对面的山，直达到犹大人的城基列·巴力（基列·巴力就是基列·耶琳）；这是西界。
The border extended, and turned around on the west quarter southward, from the mountain that lies before Beth Horon southward; and ended at Kiriath Baal (also called Kiriath Jearim), a city of the children of Judah. This was the west quarter.
15 南界是从基列·耶琳的尽边起，往西达到尼弗多亚的水源；
The south quarter was from the farthest part of Kiriath Jearim. The border went out westward, and went out to the spring of the waters of Nephtoah.
16 又下到欣嫩子谷对面山的尽边，就是利乏音谷北边的山；又下到欣嫩谷，贴近耶布斯的南边；又下到隐·罗结；
The border went down to the farthest part of the mountain that lies before the valley of the son of Hinnom, which is in the valley of Rephaim northward. It went down to the valley of Hinnom, to the side of the Jebusite southward, and went down to En Rogel.
17 又往北通到隐·示麦，达到亚都冥坡对面的基利绿；又下到吕便之子波罕的磐石；
It extended northward, went out at En Shemesh, and went out to Geliloth, which is opposite the ascent of Adummim. It went down to the stone of Bohan the son of Reuben.
18 又接连到亚拉巴对面，往北下到亚拉巴；
It passed along to the side opposite the Arabah northward, and went down to the Arabah.
19 又接连到伯·曷拉的北边，直通到盐海的北汊，就是约旦河的南头；这是南界。
The border passed along to the side of Beth Hoglah northward; and the border ended at the north bay of the Salt Sea, at the south end of the Jordan. This was the south border.
20 东界是约旦河。这是便雅悯人按着宗族，照他们四围的交界所得的地业。
The Jordan was its border on the east quarter. This was the inheritance of the children of Benjamin, by the borders around it, according to their families.
