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.

50 According to the commandment of YHWH, they gave him the city which he asked, even Timnath Serah in the hill country of Ephraim; and he built the city, and lived there.
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 inheritances, which Eleazar the priest, Joshua the son of Nun, and the heads of ancestral houses of the tribes of the children of Israel distributed by lot in Shiloh before YHWH, at the door of the Tent of Meeting. So they made an end of dividing the land.
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.
