< יהושע 18 >
וַיִּקָּהֲלוּ כָּל־עֲדַת בְּנֵֽי־יִשְׂרָאֵל שִׁלֹה וַיַּשְׁכִּינוּ שָׁם אֶת־אֹהֶל מוֹעֵד וְהָאָרֶץ נִכְבְּשָׁה לִפְנֵיהֶֽם׃ | 1 |
And the whole congregation of the children of Israel assembled together at Shiloh, and set up the tabernacle of the congregation there. And the land was subdued before them.
וַיִּוָּֽתְרוּ בִּבְנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל אֲשֶׁר לֹֽא־חָלְקוּ אֶת־נֽ͏ַחֲלָתָם שִׁבְעָה שְׁבָטִֽים׃ | 2 |
And there remained among the children of Israel seven tribes, which had not yet received their inheritance.
וַיֹּאמֶר יְהוֹשֻׁעַ אֶל־בְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל עַד־אָנָה אַתֶּם מִתְרַפִּים לָבוֹא לָרֶשֶׁת אֶת־הָאָרֶץ אֲשֶׁר נָתַן לָכֶם יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵי אֲבֽוֹתֵיכֶֽם׃ | 3 |
And Joshua said unto the children of Israel, How long are ye slack to go to possess the land, which Yhwh God of your fathers hath given you?
הָבוּ לָכֶם שְׁלֹשָׁה אֲנָשִׁים לַשָּׁבֶט וְאֶשְׁלָחֵם וְיָקֻמוּ וְיִֽתְהַלְּכוּ בָאָרֶץ וְיִכְתְּבוּ אוֹתָהּ לְפִי נַֽחֲלָתָם וְיָבֹאוּ אֵלָֽי׃ | 4 |
Give out from among you three men for each tribe: and I will send them, and they shall rise, and go through the land, and describe it according to the inheritance of them; and they shall come again to me.
וְהִֽתְחַלְּקוּ אֹתָהּ לְשִׁבְעָה חֲלָקִים יְהוּדָה יַעֲמֹד עַל־גְּבוּלוֹ מִנֶּגֶב וּבֵית יוֹסֵף יַעַמְדוּ עַל־גְּבוּלָם מִצָּפֽוֹן׃ | 5 |
And they shall divide it into seven parts: Judah shall abide in their coast on the south, and the house of Joseph shall abide in their coasts on the north.
וְאַתֶּם תִּכְתְּבוּ אֶת־הָאָרֶץ שִׁבְעָה חֲלָקִים וֽ͏ַהֲבֵאתֶם אֵלַי הֵנָּה וְיָרִיתִי לָכֶם גּוֹרָל פֹּה לִפְנֵי יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵֽינוּ׃ | 6 |
Ye shall therefore describe the land into seven parts, and bring the description hither to me, that I may cast lots for you here before Yhwh our God.
כִּי אֵֽין־חֵלֶק לַלְוִיִּם בְּקִרְבְּכֶם כִּֽי־כְהֻנַּת יְהוָה נַחֲלָתוֹ וְגָד וּרְאוּבֵן וַחֲצִי שֵׁבֶט הַֽמְנַשֶּׁה לָקְחוּ נַחֲלָתָם מֵעֵבֶר לַיַּרְדֵּן מִזְרָחָה אֲשֶׁר נָתַן לָהֶם מֹשֶׁה עֶבֶד יְהוָֽה׃ | 7 |
But the Levites have no part among you; for the priesthood of Yhwh is their inheritance: and Gad, and Reuben, and half the tribe of Manasseh, have received their inheritance beyond Jordan on the east, which Moses the servant of Yhwh gave them.
וַיָּקֻמוּ הָאֲנָשִׁים וַיֵּלֵכוּ וַיְצַו יְהוֹשֻׁעַ אֶת־הַהֹלְכִים לִכְתֹּב אֶת־הָאָרֶץ לֵאמֹר לְכוּ וְהִתְהַלְּכוּ בָאָרֶץ וְכִתְבוּ אוֹתָהּ וְשׁוּבוּ אֵלַי וּפֹה אַשְׁלִיךְ לָכֶם גּוֹרָל לִפְנֵי יְהוָה בְּשִׁלֹֽה׃ | 8 |
And the men arose, and went away: and Joshua charged them that went to describe the land, saying, Go and walk through the land, and describe it, and come again to me, that I may here cast lots for you before Yhwh in Shiloh.
וַיֵּלְכוּ הֽ͏ָאֲנָשִׁים וַיַּעַבְרוּ בָאָרֶץ וַיִּכְתְּבוּהָ לֶֽעָרִים לְשִׁבְעָה חֲלָקִים עַל־סֵפֶר וַיָּבֹאוּ אֶל־יְהוֹשֻׁעַ אֶל־הַֽמַּחֲנֶה שִׁלֹֽה׃ | 9 |
And the men went and passed through the land, and described it by cities into seven parts in a book, and came again to Joshua to the camp at Shiloh.
וַיַּשְׁלֵךְ לָהֶם יְהוֹשֻׁעַ גּוֹרָל בְּשִׁלֹה לִפְנֵי יְהוָה וַיְחַלֶּק־שָׁם יְהוֹשֻׁעַ אֶת־הָאָרֶץ לִבְנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל כְּמַחְלְקֹתָֽם׃ | 10 |
And Joshua cast lots for them in Shiloh before Yhwh: and there Joshua divided the land unto the children of Israel according to their divisions.
וַיַּעַל גּוֹרַל מַטֵּה בְנֵֽי־בִנְיָמִן לְמִשְׁפְּחֹתָם וַיֵּצֵא גְּבוּל גּֽוֹרָלָם בֵּין בְּנֵי יְהוּדָה וּבֵין בְּנֵי יוֹסֵֽף׃ | 11 |
And the lot of the tribe of the children of Benjamin came up according to their families: and the coast of their lot came forth between the children of Judah and the children of Joseph.
וַיְהִי לָהֶם הַגְּבוּל לִפְאַת צָפוֹנָה מִן־הַיַּרְדֵּן וְעָלָה הַגְּבוּל אֶל־כֶּתֶף יְרִיחוֹ מִצָּפוֹן וְעָלָה בָהָר יָמָּה והיה וְהָיוּ תֹּֽצְאֹתָיו מִדְבַּרָה בֵּית אָֽוֶן׃ | 12 |
And their border on the north side was from Jordan; and the border went up to the side of Jericho on the north side, and went up through the mountains westward; and the goings out thereof were at the wilderness of Beth–aven.
וְעָבַר מִשָּׁם הַגְּבוּל לוּזָה אֶל־כֶּתֶף לוּזָה נֶגְבָּה הִיא בֵּֽית־אֵל וְיָרַד הַגְּבוּל עַטְרוֹת אַדָּר עַל־הָהָר אֲשֶׁר מִנֶּגֶב לְבֵית־חֹרוֹן תַּחְתּֽוֹן׃ | 13 |
And the border went over from thence toward Luz, to the side of Luz, which is Beth–el, southward; and the border descended to Ataroth–adar, near the hill that lieth on the south side of the nether Beth–horon.
וְתָאַר הַגְּבוּל וְנָסַב לִפְאַת־יָם נֶגְבָּה מִן־הָהָר אֲשֶׁר עַל־פְּנֵי בֵית־חֹרוֹן נֶגְבָּה והיה וְהָיוּ תֹֽצְאֹתָיו אֶל־קִרְיַת־בַּעַל הִיא קִרְיַת יְעָרִים עִיר בְּנֵי יְהוּדָה זֹאת פְּאַת־יָֽם׃ | 14 |
And the border was drawn thence, and compassed the corner of the sea southward, from the hill that lieth before Beth–horon southward; and the goings out thereof were at Kirjath–baal, which is Kirjath–jearim, a city of the children of Judah: this was the west quarter.
וּפְאַת־נֶגְבָּה מִקְצֵה קִרְיַת יְעָרִים וְיָצָא הַגְּבוּל יָמָּה וְיָצָא אֶל־מַעְיַן מֵי נֶפְתּֽוֹחַ׃ | 15 |
And the south quarter was from the end of Kirjath–jearim, and the border went out on the west, and went out to the well of waters of Nephtoah:
וְיָרַד הַגְּבוּל אֶל־קְצֵה הָהָר אֲשֶׁר עַל־פְּנֵי גֵּי בֶן־הִנֹּם אֲשֶׁר בְּעֵמֶק רְפָאִים צָפוֹנָה וְיָרַד גֵּי הִנֹּם אֶל־כֶּתֶף הַיְבוּסִי נֶגְבָּה וְיָרַד עֵין רֹגֵֽל׃ | 16 |
And the border came down to the end of the mountain that lieth before the valley of the son of Hinnom, and which is in the valley of the giants on the north, and descended to the valley of Hinnom, to the side of Jebusi on the south, and descended to En–rogel,
וְתָאַר מִצָּפוֹן וְיָצָא עֵין שֶׁמֶשׁ וְיָצָא אֶל־גְּלִילוֹת אֲשֶׁר־נֹכַח מַעֲלֵה אֲדֻמִּים וְיָרַד אֶבֶן בֹּהַן בֶּן־רְאוּבֵֽן׃ | 17 |
And was drawn from the north, and went forth to En–shemesh, and went forth toward Geliloth, which is over against the going up of Adummim, and descended to the stone of Bohan the son of Reuben,
וְעָבַר אֶל־כֶּתֶף מוּל־הֽ͏ָעֲרָבָה צָפוֹנָה וְיָרַד הָעֲרָבָֽתָה׃ | 18 |
And passed along toward the side over against Arabah northward, and went down unto Arabah:
וְעָבַר הַגְּבוּל אֶל־כֶּתֶף בֵּית־חָגְלָה צָפוֹנָה והיה וְהָיוּ ׀ תצאותיו תֹּצְאוֹת הַגְּבוּל אֶל־לְשׁוֹן יָם־הַמֶּלַח צָפוֹנָה אֶל־קְצֵה הַיַּרְדֵּן נֶגְבָּה זֶה גְּבוּל נֶֽגֶב׃ | 19 |
And the border passed along to the side of Beth–hoglah northward: and the outgoings of the border were at the north bay of the salt sea at the south end of Jordan: this was the south coast.
וְהַיַּרְדֵּן יִגְבֹּל־אֹתוֹ לִפְאַת־קֵדְמָה זֹאת נַחֲלַת בְּנֵי בִנְיָמִן לִגְבֽוּלֹתֶיהָ סָבִיב לְמִשְׁפְּחֹתָֽם׃ | 20 |
And Jordan was the border of it on the east side. This was the inheritance of the children of Benjamin, by the coasts thereof round about, according to their families.
וְהָיוּ הֽ͏ֶעָרִים לְמַטֵּה בְּנֵי בִנְיָמִן לְמִשְׁפְּחֽוֹתֵיהֶם יְרִיחוֹ וּבֵית־חָגְלָה וְעֵמֶק קְצִֽיץ׃ | 21 |
Now the cities of the tribe of the children of Benjamin according to their families were Jericho, and Beth–hoglah, and the valley of Keziz,
וּבֵית הֽ͏ָעֲרָבָה וּצְמָרַיִם וּבֵֽית־אֵֽל׃ | 22 |
And Beth–arabah, and Zemaraim, and Beth–el,
וְהָעַוִּים וְהַפָּרָה וְעָפְרָֽה׃ | 23 |
And Avim, and Parah, and Ophrah,
וּכְפַר העמני הָֽעַמֹּנָה וְהָֽעָפְנִי וָגָבַע עָרִים שְׁתֵּים־עֶשְׂרֵה וְחַצְרֵיהֶֽן׃ | 24 |
And Chephar–haammonai, and Ophni, and Gaba; twelve cities with their villages:
גִּבְעוֹן וְהָֽרָמָה וּבְאֵרֽוֹת׃ | 25 |
Gibeon, and Ramah, and Beeroth,
וְהַמִּצְפֶּה וְהַכְּפִירָה וְהַמֹּצָֽה׃ | 26 |
And Mizpeh, and Chephirah, and Mozah,
וְרֶקֶם וְיִרְפְּאֵל וְתַרְאֲלָֽה׃ | 27 |
And Rekem, and Irpeel, and Taralah,
וְצֵלַע הָאֶלֶף וְהַיְבוּסִי הִיא יְרֽוּשָׁלִַם גִּבְעַת קִרְיַת עָרִים אַרְבַּֽע־עֶשְׂרֵה וְחַצְרֵיהֶן זֹאת נַֽחֲלַת בְּנֵֽי־בִנְיָמִן לְמִשְׁפְּחֹתָֽם׃ | 28 |
And Zelah, Eleph, and Jebusi, which is Jerusalem, Gibeath, and Kirjath; fourteen cities with their villages. This is the inheritance of the children of Benjamin according to their families.
