约书亚记 18
1 以色列的全会众都聚集在示罗，把会幕设立在那里，那地已经被他们制伏了。
And the whole assembly of the children of Israel gathered together at Shiloh, and set up the tent of meeting there; and the land was subdued before them.
2 以色列人中其余的七个支派还没有分给他们地业。
And there remained among the children of Israel seven tribes whose inheritance had not been distributed to them.
3 约书亚对以色列人说：“耶和华—你们列祖的 神所赐给你们的地，你们耽延不去得，要到几时呢？
And Joshua said to the children of Israel, How long will ye shew yourselves slack to go to take possession of the land which Jehovah the God of your fathers hath given you?
4 你们每支派当选举三个人，我要打发他们去，他们就要起身走遍那地，按着各支派应得的地业写明，就回到我这里来。
Provide you three men for a tribe; that I may send them, and they shall rise and go through the land, and describe it according to the proportion of their inheritance, and they shall come to me.
5 他们要将地分做七分；犹大仍在南方，住在他的境内。约瑟家仍在北方，住在他的境内。
And they shall divide it into seven portions. Judah shall remain in their border on the south, and the house of Joseph shall remain in their border on the north;
6 你们要将地分做七分，写明了拿到我这里来。我要在耶和华—我们 神面前，为你们拈阄。
and ye shall describe the land into seven portions, and bring [the description] hither to me, and I will cast lots for you here before Jehovah our God.
7 利未人在你们中间没有分，因为供耶和华祭司的职任就是他们的产业。迦得支派、吕便支派，和玛拿西半支派已经在约旦河东得了地业，就是耶和华仆人摩西所给他们的。”
But the Levites have no portion among you, for the priesthood of Jehovah is their inheritance. And Gad, and Reuben, and half the tribe of Manasseh have received their inheritance beyond the Jordan on the east, which Moses the servant of Jehovah gave them.
8 划地势的人起身去的时候，约书亚嘱咐他们说：“你们去走遍那地，划明地势，就回到我这里来。我要在示罗这里，耶和华面前，为你们拈阄。”
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, and I will cast lots for you here before Jehovah in Shiloh.
9 他们就去了，走遍那地，按着城邑分做七分，写在册子上，回到示罗营中见约书亚。
And the men went and passed through the land, and described it by cities into seven portions, in a book, and they came to Joshua, to the camp at Shiloh.
10 约书亚就在示罗，耶和华面前，为他们拈阄。约书亚在那里，按着以色列人的支派，将地分给他们。
And Joshua cast lots for them in Shiloh before Jehovah. And there Joshua divided the land to the children of Israel according to their divisions.
11 便雅悯支派，按着宗族拈阄所得之地，是在犹大、约瑟子孙中间。
And the lot of the tribe of the children of Benjamin came up according to their families. And the territory of their lot came forth between the children of Judah and the children of Joseph.
12 他们的北界是从约旦河起，往上贴近耶利哥的北边；又往西通过山地，直到伯·亚文的旷野；
And their border on the north side was from the Jordan; and the border went up to the side of Jericho on the north, and went up to the mountain westward; and ended at the wilderness of Beth-Aven;
13 从那里往南接连到路斯，贴近路斯（路斯就是伯特利），又下到亚他绿·亚达，靠近下伯·和 南边的山；
and the border passed on from thence toward Luz, to the south side of Luz, which is Bethel: and the border went down to Ataroth-Addar, near the hill that is on the south of the lower Beth-horon.
14 从那里往西，又转向南，从伯·和 南对面的山，直达到犹大人的城基列·巴力（基列·巴力就是基列·耶琳）；这是西界。
— And the border reached along and turned on the west side, southward from the hill that is before Beth-horon southward; and ended at Kirjath-Baal, which is Kirjath-jearim, a city of the children of Judah: this is the west side.
15 南界是从基列·耶琳的尽边起，往西达到尼弗多亚的水源；
— And the south side was from the extreme end of Kirjath-jearim, and the border went out on the west, and went out to the spring of the waters of Nephtoah.
16 又下到欣嫩子谷对面山的尽边，就是利乏音谷北边的山；又下到欣嫩谷，贴近耶布斯的南边；又下到隐·罗结；
And the border went down to the end of the mountain that is before the valley of the son of Hinnom, which is in the valley of Rephaim on the north, and went down the valley of Hinnom, to the side of the Jebusite on the south, and went down to En-rogel;
17 又往北通到隐·示麦，达到亚都冥坡对面的基利绿；又下到吕便之子波罕的磐石；
and it reached along on the north, and went forth to En-shemesh, and went forth towards Geliloth, which is opposite to the ascent of Adummim, and went down to the stone of Bohan, the son of Reuben,
18 又接连到亚拉巴对面，往北下到亚拉巴；
and passed along towards the side opposite to Arabah northwards, and went down to Arabah;
19 又接连到伯·曷拉的北边，直通到盐海的北汊，就是约旦河的南头；这是南界。
and the border passed on to the side of Beth-hoglah on the north, and the border ended at the tongue of the salt sea northward, at the south end of the Jordan: this is the southern border.
20 东界是约旦河。这是便雅悯人按着宗族，照他们四围的交界所得的地业。
— And the Jordan borders it on the east side. — This was the inheritance of the children of Benjamin, according to its borders round about, according to their families.
21 便雅悯支派按着宗族所得的城邑就是：耶利哥、伯·曷拉、伊麦·基悉、
And the cities of the tribe of the children of Benjamin according to their families were: Jericho, and Beth-hoglah, and Emek-Keziz,
22 伯·亚拉巴、洗玛脸、伯特利、
and Beth-Arabah, and Zemaraim, and Bethel,
23 亚文、巴拉、俄弗拉、
and Avvim, and Parah, and Ophrah,
24 基法·阿摩尼、俄弗尼、迦巴，共十二座城，还有属城的村庄；
and Chephar-haammonai, and Ophni, and Geba: twelve cities and their hamlets;
25 又有基遍、拉玛、比录、
Gibeon, and Ramah, and Beeroth,
26 米斯巴、基非拉、摩撒、
and Mizpeh, and Chephirah, and Mozah,
27 利坚、伊利毗勒、他拉拉、
and Rekem, and Jirpeel, and Tharalah,
28 洗拉、以利弗、耶布斯（耶布斯就是耶路撒冷）、基比亚、基列，共十四座城，还有属城的村庄。这是便雅悯人按着宗族所得的地业。
and Zelah, Eleph, and Jebusi, that is, Jerusalem, Gibeah, Kirjath: fourteen cities and their hamlets. This was the inheritance of the children of Benjamin according to their families.
