Joshua 19
1 The second lot cast went to the tribe of Simeon, by families. The land was within the land allotted to the tribe of Judah.
| וַיֵּצֵא הַגּוֹרָל הַשֵּׁנִי לְשִׁמְעוֹן לְמַטֵּה בְנֵֽי־שִׁמְעוֹן לְמִשְׁפְּחוֹתָם וַֽיְהִי נַחֲלָתָם בְּתוֹךְ נַחֲלַת בְּנֵי־יְהוּדָֽה׃ |
2 Their allocation included Beersheba, Sheba, Moladah,
| וַיְהִי לָהֶם בְּנַחֲלָתָם בְּאֵֽר־שֶׁבַע וְשֶׁבַע וּמוֹלָדָֽה׃ |
3 Hazar-shual, Balah, Ezem,
| וַחֲצַר שׁוּעָל וּבָלָה וָעָֽצֶם׃ |
4 Eltolad, Bethul, Hormah,
| וְאֶלְתּוֹלַד וּבְתוּל וְחׇרְמָֽה׃ |
5 Ziklag, Beth-marcaboth, Hazar-susah,
| וְצִֽקְלַג וּבֵית־הַמַּרְכָּבוֹת וַחֲצַר סוּסָֽה׃ |
6 Beth-lebaoth, and Sharuhen—thirteen towns with their associated villages.
| וּבֵית לְבָאוֹת וְשָׁרוּחֶן עָרִים שְׁלֹשׁ־עֶשְׂרֵה וְחַצְרֵיהֶֽן׃ |
7 Also: Ain, Rimmon, Ether, and Ashan—four towns with their associated villages,
| עַיִן ׀ רִמּוֹן וָעֶתֶר וְעָשָׁן עָרִים אַרְבַּע וְחַצְרֵיהֶֽן׃ |
8 as well as all the villages around these towns as far as Baalath-beer (or Ramah of the Negev). This was the land allotted to the tribe of Simeon, by families.
| וְכׇל־הַחֲצֵרִים אֲשֶׁר סְבִיבוֹת הֶעָרִים הָאֵלֶּה עַד־בַּעֲלַת בְּאֵר רָאמַת נֶגֶב זֹאת נַחֲלַת מַטֵּה בְנֵֽי־שִׁמְעוֹן לְמִשְׁפְּחֹתָֽם׃ |
9 The allocation of the tribe of Simeon was part of that given to the tribe of Judah, since what the tribe of Judah had received was too large for them.
| מֵחֶבֶל בְּנֵי יְהוּדָה נַחֲלַת בְּנֵי שִׁמְעוֹן כִּֽי־הָיָה חֵלֶק בְּנֵֽי־יְהוּדָה רַב מֵהֶם וַיִּנְחֲלוּ בְנֵֽי־שִׁמְעוֹן בְּתוֹךְ נַחֲלָתָֽם׃ |
10 The third lot cast went to the tribe of Zebulun, by families. The boundary of their allocation began at Sarid,
| וַיַּעַל הַגּוֹרָל הַשְּׁלִישִׁי לִבְנֵי זְבוּלֻן לְמִשְׁפְּחֹתָם וַיְהִי גְּבוּל נַחֲלָתָם עַד־שָׂרִֽיד׃ |
11 and then went west past Maralah, touched Dabbeshah, and then the brook near Jokneam.
| וְעָלָה גְבוּלָם ׀ לַיָּמָּה וּמַרְעֲלָה וּפָגַע בְּדַבָּשֶׁת וּפָגַע אֶל־הַנַּחַל אֲשֶׁר עַל־פְּנֵי יׇקְנְעָֽם׃ |
12 Going the other way from Sarid, the boundary headed east to the border of Kislot-tabor, on to Daberath, and then up to Japhia.
| וְשָׁב מִשָּׂרִיד קֵדְמָה מִזְרַח הַשֶּׁמֶשׁ עַל־גְּבוּל כִּסְלֹת תָּבֹר וְיָצָא אֶל־הַדָּבְרַת וְעָלָה יָפִֽיעַ׃ |
13 From there it ran east to Gath-hepher, Eth-kazin, and on to Rimmon, and turned towards Neah.
| וּמִשָּׁם עָבַר קֵדְמָה מִזְרָחָה גִּתָּה חֵפֶר עִתָּה קָצִין וְיָצָא רִמּוֹן הַמְּתֹאָר הַנֵּעָֽה׃ |
14 There the boundary turned north to Hannathon, ending at the valley of Iphtah-el.
| וְנָסַב אֹתוֹ הַגְּבוּל מִצְּפוֹן חַנָּתֹן וְהָיוּ תֹּצְאֹתָיו גֵּי יִפְתַּח־אֵֽל׃ |
15 The towns included: Kattath, Nahalal, Shimron, Idalah, and Bethlehem—twelve towns with their associated villages.
| וְקַטָּת וְנַהֲלָל וְשִׁמְרוֹן וְיִדְאֲלָה וּבֵית לָחֶם עָרִים שְׁתֵּים־עֶשְׂרֵה וְחַצְרֵיהֶֽן׃ |
16 This was the allocation—the land, towns, and villages—given to the tribe of Zebulun, by families.
| זֹאת נַֽחֲלַת בְּנֵי־זְבוּלֻן לְמִשְׁפְּחוֹתָם הֶעָרִים הָאֵלֶּה וְחַצְרֵיהֶֽן׃ |
17 The fourth lot cast went to the tribe of Issachar, by families.
| לְיִשָּׂשכָר יָצָא הַגּוֹרָל הָרְבִיעִי לִבְנֵי יִשָּׂשכָר לְמִשְׁפְּחוֹתָֽם׃ |
18 Their land included these towns: Jezreel, Kesulloth, Shunem,
| וַיְהִי גְּבוּלָם יִזְרְעֶאלָה וְהַכְּסוּלֹת וְשׁוּנֵֽם׃ |
19 Hapharaim, Shion, Anaharath,
| וַחֲפָרַיִם וְשִׁיאֹן וַאֲנָחֲרַֽת׃ |
20 Rabbith, Kishion, Ebez,
| וְהָרַבִּית וְקִשְׁיוֹן וָאָֽבֶץ׃ |
21 Remeth, En-gannim, En-haddah, and Beth-pazzez.
| וְרֶמֶת וְעֵין־גַּנִּים וְעֵין חַדָּה וּבֵית פַּצֵּֽץ׃ |
22 The boundary also reached the towns of Tabor, Shahazumah, and Beth-shemesh, and ended at the Jordan River—sixteen towns with their associated villages.
| וּפָגַע הַגְּבוּל בְּתָבוֹר (ושחצומה) [וְשַׁחֲצִימָה] וּבֵית שֶׁמֶשׁ וְהָיוּ תֹּצְאוֹת גְּבוּלָם הַיַּרְדֵּן עָרִים שֵׁשׁ־עֶשְׂרֵה וְחַצְרֵיהֶֽן׃ |
23 This was the allocation—the land, towns, and villages—given to the tribe of Zebulun, by families.
| זֹאת נַחֲלַת מַטֵּה בְנֵי־יִשָּׂשכָר לְמִשְׁפְּחֹתָם הֶעָרִים וְחַצְרֵיהֶֽן׃ |
24 The fifth lot cast went to the tribe of Asher, by families.
| וַיֵּצֵא הַגּוֹרָל הַחֲמִישִׁי לְמַטֵּה בְנֵי־אָשֵׁר לְמִשְׁפְּחוֹתָֽם׃ |
25 Their allocation included the towns of Helkath, Hali, Beten, Acshaph,
| וַיְהִי גְּבוּלָם חֶלְקַת וַחֲלִי וָבֶטֶן וְאַכְשָֽׁף׃ |
26 Allammelech, Amad, and Mishal. Their boundary reached Carmel and Shihor-libnat in the west.
| וְאַֽלַמֶּלֶךְ וְעַמְעָד וּמִשְׁאָל וּפָגַע בְּכַרְמֶל הַיָּמָּה וּבְשִׁיחוֹר לִבְנָֽת׃ |
27 Then it turned east towards Beth-dagon, reaching the land of Zebulun and the valley of Iphtah-el. From there it headed north to Beth-emek and Neiel, and continued north to Cabul, and on through to
| וְשָׁב מִזְרַח הַשֶּׁמֶשׁ בֵּית דָּגֹן וּפָגַע בִּזְבֻלוּן וּבְגֵי יִפְתַּח־אֵל צָפוֹנָה בֵּית הָעֵמֶק וּנְעִיאֵל וְיָצָא אֶל־כָּבוּל מִשְּׂמֹֽאל׃ |
28 Ebron, Rehob, Hammon, Kanah, and on up to Great Sidon.
| וְעֶבְרֹן וּרְחֹב וְחַמּוֹן וְקָנָה עַד צִידוֹן רַבָּֽה׃ |
29 The boundary then turned towards Ramah and then the fortified town of Tyre, turning to Hosah and ending at the sea. Towns included Mehebel, Aczib,
| וְשָׁב הַגְּבוּל הָרָמָה וְעַד־עִיר מִבְצַר־צֹר וְשָׁב הַגְּבוּל חֹסָה (ויהיו) [וְהָיוּ] תֹצְאֹתָיו הַיָּמָּה מֵחֶבֶל אַכְזִֽיבָה׃ |
30 Ummah, Aphek, and Rehob—twenty-two towns with their associated villages.
| וְעֻמָה וַאֲפֵק וּרְחֹב עָרִים עֶשְׂרִים וּשְׁתַּיִם וְחַצְרֵיהֶֽן׃ |
31 This was the allocation—the land, towns, and villages—given to the tribe of Asher, by families.
| זֹאת נַחֲלַת מַטֵּה בְנֵֽי־אָשֵׁר לְמִשְׁפְּחֹתָם הֶעָרִים הָאֵלֶּה וְחַצְרֵיהֶֽן׃ |
32 The sixth lot cast went to the tribe of Naphtali, by families.
| לִבְנֵי נַפְתָּלִי יָצָא הַגּוֹרָל הַשִּׁשִּׁי לִבְנֵי נַפְתָּלִי לְמִשְׁפְּחֹתָֽם׃ |
33 Their boundary began at Heleph, by the oak at Zaananim, and went across to Adami-nekeb, Jabneel, and up to Lakkum, and ending at the Jordan.
| וַיְהִי גְבוּלָם מֵחֵלֶף מֵאֵלוֹן בְּצַעֲנַנִּים וַאֲדָמִי הַנֶּקֶב וְיַבְנְאֵל עַד־לַקּוּם וַיְהִי תֹצְאֹתָיו הַיַּרְדֵּֽן׃ |
34 Then the boundary headed west to Aznoth-tabor, and on to Hukkok. It reached the land of Zebulun on the south, the land of Asher on the west, and the Jordan on the east.
| וְשָׁב הַגְּבוּל יָמָּה אַזְנוֹת תָּבוֹר וְיָצָא מִשָּׁם חוּקֹקָה וּפָגַע בִּזְבֻלוּן מִנֶּגֶב וּבְאָשֵׁר פָּגַע מִיָּם וּבִיהוּדָה הַיַּרְדֵּן מִזְרַח הַשָּֽׁמֶשׁ׃ |
35 The fortified towns included: Ziddim, Zer, Hammath, Rakkath, Kinnereth,
| וְעָרֵי מִבְצָר הַצִּדִּים צֵר וְחַמַּת רַקַּת וְכִנָּֽרֶת׃ |
36 Adamah, Ramah, Hazor,
| וַאֲדָמָה וְהָרָמָה וְחָצֽוֹר׃ |
37 Kedesh, Edrei, En-hazor,
| וְקֶדֶשׁ וְאֶדְרֶעִי וְעֵין חָצֽוֹר׃ |
38 Yiron, Migdal-el, Horem, Beth-anath, and Beth-shemesh—nineteen towns with their associated villages.
| וְיִרְאוֹן וּמִגְדַּל־אֵל חֳרֵם וּבֵית־עֲנָת וּבֵית שָׁמֶשׁ עָרִים תְּשַֽׁע־עֶשְׂרֵה וְחַצְרֵיהֶֽן׃ |
39 This was the allocation—the land, towns, and villages—given to the tribe of Naphtali, by families.
| זֹאת נַחֲלַת מַטֵּה בְנֵֽי־נַפְתָּלִי לְמִשְׁפְּחֹתָם הֶֽעָרִים וְחַצְרֵיהֶֽן׃ |
40 The seventh lot cast went to the tribe of Dan, by families.
| לְמַטֵּה בְנֵי־דָן לְמִשְׁפְּחֹתָם יָצָא הַגּוֹרָל הַשְּׁבִיעִֽי׃ |
41 Their allocation included the towns of Zorah, Eshtaol, Ir-shemesh,
| וַיְהִי גְּבוּל נַחֲלָתָם צׇרְעָה וְאֶשְׁתָּאוֹל וְעִיר שָֽׁמֶשׁ׃ |

| וְשַׁעֲלַבִּין וְאַיָּלוֹן וְיִתְלָֽה׃ |
43 Elon, Timnah, Ekron,
| וְאֵילוֹן וְתִמְנָתָה וְעֶקְרֽוֹן׃ |

| וִיהֻד וּבְנֵֽי־בְרַק וְגַת־רִמּֽוֹן׃ |
46 Me-jarkon, Rakkon, along with the territory opposite Joppa.
| וּמֵי הַיַּרְקוֹן וְהָרַקּוֹן עִֽם־הַגְּבוּל מוּל יָפֽוֹ׃ |
47 However, the tribe of Dan was not able to hold on to their allotted land, so they went and attacked Leshem and captured it. They slaughtered its inhabitants and took possession of the town, settling there. They renamed Leshem as Dan, after their ancestor.
| וַיֵּצֵא גְבוּל־בְּנֵי־דָן מֵהֶם וַיַּעֲלוּ בְנֵי־דָן וַיִּלָּחֲמוּ עִם־לֶשֶׁם וַיִּלְכְּדוּ אוֹתָהּ ׀ וַיַּכּוּ אוֹתָהּ לְפִי־חֶרֶב וַיִּֽרְשׁוּ אוֹתָהּ וַיֵּשְׁבוּ בָהּ וַיִּקְרְאוּ לְלֶשֶׁם דָּן כְּשֵׁם דָּן אֲבִיהֶֽם׃ |
48 This was the allocation—the land, towns, and villages—given to the tribe of Dan, by families.
| זֹאת נַחֲלַת מַטֵּה בְנֵי־דָן לְמִשְׁפְּחֹתָם הֶעָרִים הָאֵלֶּה וְחַצְרֵיהֶֽן׃ |
49 After they finished allotting the land and establishing its borders, the Israelites gave Joshua, son of Nun, an allocation among them.
| וַיְכַלּוּ לִנְחֹל־אֶת־הָאָרֶץ לִגְבוּלֹתֶיהָ וַיִּתְּנוּ בְנֵי־יִשְׂרָאֵל נַחֲלָה לִיהוֹשֻׁעַ בִּן־נוּן בְּתוֹכָֽם׃ |
50 Following the Lord's command, they gave him the town he requested—Timnath-serah in the hill country of Ephraim. He rebuilt the town and settled there.
| עַל־פִּי יְהֹוָה נָתְנוּ לוֹ אֶת־הָעִיר אֲשֶׁר שָׁאָל אֶת־תִּמְנַת־סֶרַח בְּהַר אֶפְרָיִם וַיִּבְנֶה אֶת־הָעִיר וַיֵּשֶׁב בָּֽהּ׃ |
51 These were the allocations distributed by Eleazar the priest, Joshua, son of Nun, and the leaders of the Israelite tribes. They were made by casting lots at Shiloh in the presence of the Lord at the entrance of the Tent of Meeting. So they finished dividing up the land.
| אֵלֶּה הַנְּחָלֹת אֲשֶׁר נִחֲלוּ אֶלְעָזָר הַכֹּהֵן ׀ וִיהוֹשֻׁעַ בִּן־נוּן וְרָאשֵׁי הָאָבוֹת לְמַטּוֹת בְּנֵי־יִשְׂרָאֵל ׀ בְּגוֹרָל ׀ בְּשִׁלֹה לִפְנֵי יְהֹוָה פֶּתַח אֹהֶל מוֹעֵד וַיְכַלּוּ מֵחַלֵּק אֶת־הָאָֽרֶץ׃ |
