(Lakini Wadani walipata shida kulimiliki eneo lao; kwa hiyo walipanda kuishambulia Leshemu, wakaitwaa, wakawaua watu wake kwa upanga na kuukalia. Walikaa Leshemu na kuuita Dani kufuatana na jina la baba yao.)

Walipomaliza kugawanya nchi katika migawo kulingana na sehemu zao zilizowaangukia, Waisraeli wakampa Yoshua mwana wa Nuni urithi katikati yao,
50 According to the word of the LORD they gave him the city which he asked, [even] Timnath-serah in mount Ephraim: and he built the city, and dwelt therein.
kama vile Bwana alivyokuwa ameamuru. Walimpa mji alioutaka, ambao ni Timnath-Sera ulio katika nchi ya vilima ya Efraimu. Naye akajenga mji, akakaa huko.
51 These [are] the inheritances, which Eleazar the priest, and Joshua the son of Nun, and the heads of the fathers of the tribes of the children of Israel, divided for an inheritance by lot in Shiloh before the LORD, at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation. So they made an end of dividing the country.
Haya ndiyo maeneo ambayo kuhani Eleazari, Yoshua mwana wa Nuni, na viongozi wa koo za kabila za Israeli waliyoyagawanya kwa kura huko Shilo mbele za Bwana penye ingilio la Hema la Kukutania. Hivyo wakamaliza kuigawanya nchi.
