Joshua 19
1 And the second heritage came out for the tribe of Simeon by their families; and their heritage was in the middle of the heritage of the children of Judah.

9 The heritage of Simeon was taken out of Judah's stretch of land, for Judah's part was more than they had need of, so the heritage of the children of Simeon was inside their heritage.
C’Est sur la part mesurée aux descendants de Juda que fut pris l’héritage de ceux de Siméon; car la part des enfants de Juda était trop grande pour eux, de sorte que ceux de Siméon eurent leur héritage au milieu du leur.
10 And the third heritage came out for Zebulun by their families; the limit of their heritage was as far as Sarid;

11 And their limit goes up to the west to Maralah, stretching to Dabbesheth, and to the stream in front of Jokneam;

47 (But the limit of the children of Dan was not wide enough for them; so the children of Dan went up and made war on Leshem and took it, putting it to the sword without mercy, and they took it for their heritage and made a place for themselves there, giving it the name of Leshem-dan, after the name of their father, Dan.)
Mais le territoire des enfants de Dan dépassa ces limites: en effet, les enfants de Dan firent une expédition, attaquèrent Léchem, s’en emparèrent, la passèrent au fil de l’épée, en prirent possession et s’y établirent, remplaçant le nom de Léchem par celui de Dan, qui était le nom de leur père.
48 This is the heritage of the tribe of the children of Dan by their families, these towns with their unwalled places.

49 So the distribution of the land and its limits was complete; and the children of Israel gave Joshua, the son of Nun, a heritage among them;
Lorsqu’ils eurent achevé de partager le pays selon ses limites, les enfants d’Israël attribuèrent à Josué, fils de Noun, une possession au milieu d’eux.
50 By the orders of the Lord they gave him the town for which he made request, Timnath-serah in the hill-country of Ephraim: there, after building the town, he made his living-place.
Sur l’ordre de l’Eternel, ils lui donnèrent la ville qu’il avait demandée: Timnat-Sérah, dans la montagne d’Ephraïm. II restaura cette ville et il s’y établit.
51 These are the heritages which Eleazar the priest and Joshua, the son of Nun, and the heads of families of the tribes of the children of Israel gave out at Shiloh, by the decision of the Lord, at the door of the Tent of meeting. So the distribution of the land was complete.
Telles sont les possessions que le prêtre Eléazar, Josué, fils de Noun, et les chefs de famille des tribus des enfants d’Israël répartirent, par la voie du sort, à Silo, en présence de l’éternel, à l’entrée de la Tente d’assignation: on acheva ainsi le partage du pays.
