여호수아 18

1이스라엘 자손의 온 회중이 실로에 모여서 거기 회막을 세웠으니 그 땅이 이미 그들의 앞에 돌아와 복종하였음이나 2이스라엘 자손 중에 그 기업의 분배를 얻지 못한 자가 오히려 일곱 지파라 3여호수아가 이스라엘 자손에게 이르되 너희가 너희 열조의 하나님 여호와께서 너희에게 주신 땅을 취하러 가기를 어느 때까지 지체하겠느냐 4너희는 매 지파에 삼 인씩 선정하라 내가 그들을 보내리니 그들은 일어나서 그 땅에 두루 다니며 그 기업에 상당하게 그려가지고 내게로 돌아올 것이라 5그들이 그 땅을 일곱 부분에 나누되 유다는 남편 자기 경내에 거하고 요셉의 족속은 그 북편 자기 경내에 거한즉 6그 남은 땅을 일곱 부분으로 그려서 이곳 내게로 가져올지니 내가 여기서 너희를 위하여 우리 하나님 여호와 앞에서 제비 뽑으리라 7레위 사람은 너희 중에 분깃이 없나니 여호와의 제사장 직분이 그들의 기업이 됨이며 갓과 르우벤과 므낫세 반 지파는 요단 저편 동편에서 이미 기업을 받았나니 이는 여호와의 종 모세가 그들에게 준 것이니라 8그 사람들이 일어나 떠나니 여호수아가 땅을 그리러 가는 그들에게 명하여 가로되 가서 그 땅으로 두루 다니며 그려가지고 내게로 돌아오라 내가 여기 실로에서 여호와 앞에서 너희를 위하여 제비 뽑으리라 9그 사람들이 가서 그 땅으로 두루 다니며 성읍들을 따라서 일곱 부분으로 책에 그리고 실로 진에 돌아와 여호수아에게 나아오니 10여호수아가 그들을 위하여 실로 여호와 앞에서 제비 뽑고 그가 거기서 이스라엘 자손의 분파대로 땅을 분배하였더라 11베냐민 자손 지파를 위하여 그 가족대로 제비를 뽑았으니 그 제비 뽑은 땅의 경계는 유다 자손과 요셉 자손의 중간이라 12그 북방 경계는 요단에서부터 여리고 북편으로 올라가서 서편 산지를 넘어서 또 올라가서 벧아웬 황무지에 이르며 13또 그 경계가 거기서부터 루스로 나아가서 루스 남편에 이르나니 루스는 곧 벧엘이며 또 그 경계가 아다롯 앗달로 내려가서 아래 벧 호론 남편 산 곁으로 지나고 14벧 호론 앞 남편 산에서부터 서방으로 돌아 남편으로 향하여 유다 자손의 성읍 기럇바알 곧 기럇 여아림에 이르러 끝이 되나니 이는 서방 경계며 15남방 경계는 기럇 여아림 끝에서부터 서편으로 나아가 넵도아 물 근원에 이르고 16르바임 골짜기 북편 힌놈의 아들 골짜기 앞에 있는 산 끝으로 내려가고 또 힌놈의 골짜기로 내려가서 여부스 남편에 이르러 엔 로겔로 내려가고 17또 북향하여 엔 세메스로 나아가서 아둠밈 비탈 맞은편 글릴롯으로 나아가서 르우벤 자손 보한의 돌까지 내려 가고 18북으로 아라바 맞은편을 지나 아라바로 내려가고 19또 북으로 벧 호글라 곁을 지나서 요단 남단에 당한 염해의 북편 해만이 그 경계의 끝이 되나니 이는 남편 경계며 20동방 경계는 요단이니 이는 베냐민 자손이 그 가족대로 얻은 기업의 사면 경계이었더라 21베냐민 자손의 지파가 그 가족대로 얻은 성읍들은 여리고와 벧 호글라와 에멕 그시스와 22벧 아라바와 스마라임과 벧엘과 23아윔과 바라와 오브라와 24그발 암모니와 오브니와 게바니 십 이 성읍이요 또 그 촌락이며 25기브온과 라마와 브에롯과 26미스베와 그비라와 모사와 27레겜과 이르브엘과 다랄라와 28셀라와 엘렙과 여부스 곧 예루살렘과 기부앗과 기럇이니 십사 성읍이요 또 그 촌락이라 이는 베냐민 자손이 그 가족대로 얻은 기업이었더라

1The 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. 2Seven tribes remained among the children of Israel, which had not yet divided their inheritance. 3Joshua said to the children of Israel, “How long will you neglect to go in to possess the land, which Yahweh, the God of your fathers, has given you? 4Appoint 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; and they shall come to me. 5They 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. 6You shall survey the land into seven parts, and bring the description here to me; and I will cast lots for you here before Yahweh our God. 7For the Levites have no portion among you; for the priesthood of Yahweh is their inheritance. Gad, Reuben, and the half-tribe of Manasseh have received their inheritance beyond the Jordan eastward, which Moses the servant of Yahweh gave them.” 8The 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 Yahweh in Shiloh.” 9The 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. 10Joshua cast lots for them in Shiloh before Yahweh. There Joshua divided the land to the children of Israel according to their divisions. 11The 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. 12Their 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. 13The border passed along from there to Luz, to the side of Luz (the same is Bethel), southward. The border went down to Ataroth Addar, by the mountain that lies on the south of Beth Horon the lower. 14The border extended, and turned around on the west quarter southward, from the mountain that lies before Beth Horon southward; and ended at Kiriath Baal (the same is Kiriath Jearim), a city of the children of Judah. This was the west quarter. 15The 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. 16The 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. 17It extended northward, went out at En Shemesh, and went out to Geliloth, which is over against the ascent of Adummim. It went down to the stone of Bohan the son of Reuben. 18It passed along to the side over against the Arabah northward, and went down to the Arabah. 19The 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. 20The 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. 21Now the cities of the tribe of the children of Benjamin according to their families were Jericho, Beth Hoglah, Emek Keziz, 22Beth Arabah, Zemaraim, Bethel, 23Avvim, Parah, Ophrah, 24Chephar Ammoni, Ophni, and Geba; twelve cities with their villages. 25Gibeon, Ramah, Beeroth, 26Mizpeh, Chephirah, Mozah, 27Rekem, Irpeel, Taralah, 28Zelah, Eleph, the Jebusite (the same is Jerusalem), Gibeath, and Kiriath; fourteen cities with their villages. This is the inheritance of the children of Benjamin according to their families.

1En de ganse vergadering van de kinderen Israels verzamelde zich te Silo, en zij richtten aldaar op de tent der samenkomst, nadat het land voor hen onderworpen was. 2En er bleven over onder de kinderen Israels, aan dewelken zij hun erfdeel niet uitgedeeld hadden, zeven stammen. 3En Jozua zeide tot de kinderen Israels: Hoe lang houdt gij u zo slap, om voort te gaan, om het land te beerven, hetwelk de HEERE, de God uwer vaderen, u gegeven heeft? 4Geeft voor ulieden drie mannen van elken stam, dat ik ze heenzende, en zij zich opmaken, en het land doorwandelen, en beschrijven hetzelve naar hun erven, en weder tot mij komen. 5Zij nu zullen het delen in zeven delen; Juda zal blijven op zijn landpale van het zuiden, en het huis van Jozef zal blijven op zijn landpale van het noorden. 6En gijlieden zult het land beschrijven in zeven delen, en tot mij herwaarts brengen, dat ik voor ulieden het lot hier werpe voor het aangezicht des HEEREN, onzes Gods. 7Want de Levieten hebben geen deel in het midden van ulieden; maar het priesterdom des HEEREN is hun erfdeel. Gad nu, en Ruben, en de halve stam van Manasse, hebben hun erfdeel genomen op gene zijde van de Jordaan, oostwaarts, hetwelk hun Mozes, de knecht des HEEREN, gegeven heeft. 8Toen maakten zich die mannen op, en gingen heen. En Jozua gebood hun, die heengingen om het land te beschrijven, zeggende: Gaat, en doorwandelt het land, en beschrijft het; komt dan weder tot mij, zo zal ik ulieden hier het lot werpen, voor het aangezicht des HEEREN, te Silo. 9De mannen dan gingen heen, en togen het land door en beschreven het, naar de steden, in zeven delen, in een boek; en kwamen weder tot Jozua in het leger te Silo. 10Toen wierp Jozua het lot voor hen te Silo, voor het aangezicht des HEEREN. En Jozua deelde aldaar den kinderen Israels het land, naar hun afdelingen. 11En het lot van den stam der kinderen van Benjamin kwam op, naar hun huisgezinnen; en de landpale van hun lot ging uit tussen de kinderen van Juda, en tussen de kinderen van Jozef. 12En hun landpale was naar den hoek noordwaarts van de Jordaan; en deze landpale gaat opwaarts aan de zijde van Jericho van het noorden, en gaat op door het gebergte westwaarts, en haar uitgangen zijn aan de woestijn van Beth-Aven. 13En van daar gaat de landpale door naar Luz, aan de zijde van Luz, welke is Beth-El, zuidwaarts; en deze landpale gaat af naar Atroth-Addar, aan den berg, die aan de zuidzijde van het benedenste Beth-Horon is. 14En die landpale strekt en keert zich om, naar den westhoek zuidwaarts van den berg, die tegenover Beth-horon zuidwaarts is, en haar uitgangen zijn aan Kirjath-Baal (welke is Kirjath-Jearim), een stad der kinderen van Juda. Dit is de hoek ten westen. 15De hoek nu ten zuiden is aan het uiterste van Kirjath-Jearim; en deze landpale gaat uit ten westen, en zij komt uit aan de fontein der wateren van Neftoah. 16En deze landpale gaat af tot aan het uiterste des bergs, die tegenover het dal van den zoon van Hinnom is, die in het dat der Refaiten is tegen het noorden; en gaat af door het dal van Hinnom, aan de zijde der Jebusieten zuidwaarts, en gaat af aan de fontein van Rogel; 17En strekt zich van het noorden, en gaat uit te En-semes; van daar gaat zij uit naar Geliloth, welke is tegenover den opgang naar Adummim, en zij gaat af aan den steen van Bohan, den zoon van Ruben; 18En gaat door ter zijde tegenover Araba naar het noorden, en gaat af te Araba. 19Verder gaat deze landpale door aan de zijde van Beth-hogla noordwaarts, en de uitgangen van deze landpale zijn aan de tong der Zoutzee noordwaarts, aan het uiterste van de Jordaan zuidwaarts. Dit is de zuiderlandpale. 20De Jordaan nu bepaalt haar aan den hoek naar het oosten. Dit is het erfdeel der kinderen van Benjamin, in hun landpalen rondom, naar hun huisgezinnen. 21De steden nu van den stam der kinderen van Benjamin, naar hun huisgezinnen, zijn: Jericho, en Beth-hogla, en Emek-Keziz, 22En Beth-araba, en Zemaraim, en Beth-El, 23En Haavvim, en Para, en Ofra, 24Chefar-haammonai, en Ofni, en Gaba; twaalf steden en haar dorpen. 25Gibeon, en Rama, en Beeroth, 26En Mizpa, en Chefira, en Moza, 27En Rekem, en Jirpeel, en Tharala, 28En Zela, Elef en Jebusi (deze is Jeruzalem), Gibath, Kirjath: veertien steden mitsgaders haar dorpen. Dit is het erfdeel der kinderen van Benjamin, naar hun huisgezinnen.
