11

ΩΣ δὲ ἤκουσεν ᾿Ιαβὶν βασιλεὺς ᾿Ασώρ, ἀπέστειλε πρὸς ᾿Ιαβὰβ βασιλέα Μαρὼν καὶ πρὸς βασιλέα Συμοὼν καὶ πρὸς βασιλέα ᾿Αζίφ

2 καὶ πρὸς βασιλεῖς τοὺς κατὰ Σιδῶνα τὴν μεγάλην, εἰς τὴν ὀρεινὴν καὶ εἰς ῎Αραβα ἀπέναντι Κενερὼθ καὶ εἰς τὸ πεδίον καὶ εἰς Φεναεδδὼρ

3 καὶ εἰς τοὺς παραλίους Χαναναίους ἀπὸ ἀνατολῶν καὶ εἰς τοὺς παραλίους ᾿Αμορραίους καὶ τοὺς Χετταίους καὶ Φερεζαίους καὶ ᾿Ιεβουσαίους τοὺς ἐν τῷ ὄρει καὶ τοὺς Εὐαίους καὶ τοὺς ὑπὸ τὴν ᾿Αερμὼν εἰς γῆν Μασσηφά.

4 καὶ ἐξῆλθον αὐτοὶ καὶ οἱ βασιλεῖς αὐτῶν μετ' αὐτῶν, ὥσπερ ἡ ἄμμος τῆς θαλάσσης τῷ πλήθει, καὶ ἵπποι καὶ ἅρματα πολλὰ σφόδρα.

5 καὶ συνῆλθον πάντες οἱ βασιλεῖς αὐτοὶ καὶ παρεγένοντο ἐπὶ τὸ αὐτὸ καὶ παρενέβαλον ἐπὶ τοῦ ὕδατος Μαρὼν πολεμῆσαι τὸν ᾿Ισραήλ.

6 καὶ εἶπε Κύριος πρὸς ᾿Ιησοῦν· μὴ φοβηθῇς ἀπὸ προσώπου αὐτῶν, ὅτι αὔριον ταύτην τὴν ὥραν ἐγὼ παραδίδωμι τετροπωμένους αὐτοὺς ἐναντίον τοῦ ᾿Ισραήλ· τοὺς ἵππους αὐτῶν νευροκοπήσεις καὶ τὰ ἅρματα αὐτῶν κατακαύσεις ἐν πυρί.

7 καὶ ἦλθεν ᾿Ιησοῦς καὶ πᾶς ὁ λαὸς ὁ πολεμιστὴς ἐπ' αὐτοὺς ἐπὶ τὸ ὕδωρ Μαρὼν ἐξάπινα καὶ ἐπέπεσαν ἐπ' αὐτοὺς ἐν τῇ ὀρεινῇ.

8 καὶ παρέδωκεν αὐτοὺς Κύριος ὑποχειρίους ᾿Ισραήλ, καὶ κόπτοντες αὐτοὺς κατεδίωκον ἕως Σιδῶνος τῆς μεγάλης καὶ ἕως Μασερὼν καὶ ἕως τῶν πεδίων Μασσὼχ κατ' ἀνατολὰς καὶ κατέκοψαν αὐτοὺς ἕως τοῦ μὴ καταλειφθῆναι αὐτῶν διασεσωσμένον.

9 καὶ ἐποίησεν αὐτοῖς ᾿Ιησοῦς ὃν τρόπον ἐνετείλατο αὐτῷ Κύριος· τοὺς ἵππους αὐτῶν ἐνευροκόπησε καὶ τὰ ἅρματα αὐτῶν ἐνέπρησε πυρί.

10 Καὶ ἀπεστράφη ᾿Ιησοῦς ἐν τῷ καιρῷ ἐκείνῳ καὶ κατελάβετο ᾿Ασὼρ καὶ τὸν βασιλέα αὐτῆς· ἦν δὲ ᾿Ασὼρ τὸ πρότερον ἄρχουσα πασῶν τῶν βασιλειῶν τούτων.

11 καὶ ἀπέκτειναν πᾶν ἐμπνέον ἐν αὐτῇ ἐν ξίφει καὶ ἐξωλόθρευσαν πάντας, καὶ οὐ κατελείφθη ἐν αὐτῇ ἐμπνέον· καὶ τὴν ᾿Ασὼρ ἐνέπρησαν ἐν πυρί.

12 καὶ πάσας τὰς πόλεις τῶν βασιλειῶν καὶ τοὺς βασιλεῖς αὐτῶν ἔλαβεν ᾿Ιησοῦς καὶ ἀνεῖλεν αὐτοὺς ἐν στόματι ξίφους, καὶ ἐξωλόθρευσαν αὐτούς, ὃν τρόπον συνέταξε Μωυσῆς ὁ παῖς Κυρίου.

13 ἀλλὰ πάσας τὰς πόλεις τὰς κεχωματισμένας οὐκ ἐνέπρησεν ᾿Ισραήλ, πλὴν ᾿Ασὼρ μόνην ἐνέπρησεν ᾿Ισραὴλ

14 καὶ πάντα τὰ σκῦλα αὐτῆς ἐπρονόμευσαν ἑαυτοῖς οἱ υἱοὶ ᾿Ισραήλ, αὐτοὺς δὲ πάντας ἐξωλόθρευσαν ἐν στόματι ξίφους, ἕως ἀπώλεσεν αὐτούς, οὐ κατέλιπον ἐξ αὐτῶν οὐδὲν ἐμπνέον.

15 ὃν τρόπον συνέταξε Κύριος τῷ Μωυσῇ τῷ παιδὶ αὐτοῦ, καὶ Μωυσῆς ὡσαύτως ἐνετείλατο τῷ ᾿Ιησοῖ, καὶ οὕτως ἐποίησεν ᾿Ιησοῦς· οὐ παρέβη οὐδὲν ἀπὸ πάντων, ὧν συνέταξεν αὐτῷ Μωυσῆς.

16 Καὶ ἔλαβεν ᾿Ιησοῦς πᾶσαν τὴν γῆν τὴν ὀρεινὴν καὶ πᾶσαν τὴν γῆν Ναγὲβ καὶ πᾶσαν τὴν γῆν Γοσὸμ καὶ τὴν πεδινὴν καὶ τὴν πρὸς δυσμαῖς καὶ τὸ ὄρος ᾿Ισραὴλ καὶ τὰ ταπεινὰ τὰ πρὸς τῷ ὄρει

 

17 ἀπὸ ὄρους Χελχὰ καὶ ὃ προσαναβαίνει εἰς Σηεὶρ καὶ ἕως Βααλγὰδ καὶ τὰ πεδία τοῦ Λιβάνου ὑπὸ τὸ ὄρος τὸ ᾿Αερμὼν καὶ πάντας τοὺς βασιλεῖς αὐτῶν ἔλαβε καὶ ἀνεῖλε καὶ ἀπέκτεινε.

18 καὶ ἡμέρας πλείους ἐποίησεν ᾿Ιησοῦς πρὸς τοὺς βασιλεῖς τούτους τὸν πόλεμον,

19 καὶ οὐκ ἦν πόλις, ἣν οὐκ ἔλαβεν ᾿Ισραήλ, πάντα ἐλάβοσαν ἐν πολέμῳ.

20 ὅτι διὰ Κυρίου ἐγένετο κατισχῦσαι αὐτῶν τὴν καρδίαν συναντᾶν εἰς πόλεμον πρὸς ᾿Ισραήλ, ἵνα ἐξολοθρευθῶσιν, ὅπως μὴ δοθῇ αὐτοῖς ἔλεος, ἀλλ' ἵνα ἐξολοθρευθῶσιν, ὃν τρόπον εἶπε Κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν.

21 Καὶ ἦλθεν ᾿Ιησοῦς ἐν τῷ καιρῷ ἐκείνῳ καὶ ἐξωλόθρευσε τοὺς ᾿Ενακὶμ ἐκ τῆς ὀρεινῆς, ἐκ Χεβρὼν καὶ ἐκ Δαβὶρ καὶ ἐξ ᾿Αναβὼθ καὶ ἐκ παντὸς γένους ᾿Ισραὴλ καὶ ἐκ παντὸς ὄρους ᾿Ιούδα σὺν ταῖς πόλεσιν αὐτῶν, καὶ ἐξωλόθρευσεν αὐτοὺς ᾿Ιησοῦς.

22 οὐ κατελείφθη τῶν ᾿Ενακὶμ ἀπὸ τῶν υἱῶν ᾿Ισραήλ, ἀλλὰ πλὴν ἐν Γάζῃ καὶ ἐν Γὲθ καὶ ἐν ᾿Ασεδὼθ κατελείφθη.

23 καὶ ἔλαβεν ᾿Ιησοῦς πᾶσαν τὴν γῆν, καθότι ἐνετείλατο Κύριος τῷ Μωυσῇ καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτοὺς ᾿Ιησοῦς ἐν κληρονομίᾳ ᾿Ισραὴλ ἐν μερισμῷ κατὰ φυλὰς αὐτῶν. καὶ ἡ γῆ κατέπαυσε πολεμουμένη.


12

ΚΑΙ οὗτοι οἱ βασιλεῖς τῆς γῆς, οὓς ἀνεῖλον οἱ υἱοὶ ᾿Ισραὴλ καὶ κατεκληρονόμησαν τὴν γῆν αὐτῶν πέραν τοῦ ᾿Ιορδάνου ἀφ' ἡλίου ἀνατολῶν ἀπὸ φάραγγος ᾿Αρνῶν ἕως τοῦ ὄρους ᾿Αερμὼν καὶ πᾶσαν τὴν γῆν ῎Αραβα ἀπ' ἀνατολῶν·

2 Σηὼν τὸν βασιλέα τῶν ᾿Αμορραίων, ὃς κατῴκει ἐν ᾿Εσεβὼν κυριεύων ἀπὸ ᾿Αροήρ, ἣ ἐστιν ἐν τῇ φάραγγι, κατὰ μέρος τῆς φάραγγος, καὶ τὸ ἥμισυ τῆς Γαλαὰδ ἕως ᾿Ιαβόκ, ὅρια υἱῶν ᾿Αμμών,

3 καὶ ῎Αραβα ἕως τῆς θαλάσσης Χενερὲθ κατ' ἀνατολὰς καὶ ἕως τῆς θαλάσσης ῎Αραβα, θάλασσαν τῶν ἁλῶν ἀπὸ ἀνατολῶν, ὁδὸν τὴν κατὰ ᾿Ασειμώθ, ἀπὸ Θαιμὰν τὴν ὑπὸ ᾿Ασηδὼθ Φασγά·

4 καὶ ῍Ωγ βασιλεὺς Βασὰν ὑπελείφθη ἐκ τῶν γιγάντων ὁ κατοικῶν ἐν ᾿Ασταρὼθ καὶ ἐν ᾿Εδραΐν,

5 ἄρχων ἀπὸ ὄρους ᾿Αερμὼν καὶ ἀπὸ Σελχοὶ καὶ πᾶσαν τὴν γῆν Βασὰν ἕως ὁρίων Γεσουρὶ καὶ τὴν Μαχὶ καὶ τὸ ἡμισυ Γαλαὰδ ὁρίων Σηὼν βασιλέως ᾿Εσεβών.

6 Μωυσῆς ὁ παῖς Κυρίου καὶ υἱοὶ ᾿Ισραὴλ ἐπάταξαν αὐτούς, καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτὴν Μωυσῆς ἐν κληρονομίᾳ Ρουβὴν καὶ Γὰδ καὶ τῷ ἡμίσει φυλῆς Μανασσῇ.

7 Καὶ οὗτοι οἱ βασιλεῖς τῶν ᾿Αμορραίων, οὓς ἀνεῖλεν ᾿Ιησοῦς καὶ υἱοὶ ᾿Ισραὴλ ἐν τῷ πέραν τοῦ ᾿Ιορδάνου παρὰ θάλασσαν Βααλγὰδ ἐν τῷ πεδίῳ τοῦ Λιβάνου καὶ ἕως ὄρους τοῦ Χελχὰ ἀναβαινόντων εἰς Σηείρ, καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτὴν ᾿Ιησοῦς ταῖς φυλαῖς ᾿Ισραὴλ κληρονομεῖν κατὰ κλῆρον αὐτῶν,

8 ἐν τῷ ὄρει καὶ ἐν τῷ πεδίῳ καὶ ἐν ῎Αραβα καὶ ἐν ᾿Ασηδὼθ καὶ ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ καὶ Ναγέβ, τὸν Χετταῖον καὶ τὸν ᾿Αμορραῖον καὶ τὸν Χαναναῖον καὶ τὸν Φερεζαῖον καὶ τὸν Εὐαῖον καὶ τὸν ᾿Ιεβουσαῖον·

9 τὸν βασιλέα ῾Ιεριχὼ καὶ τὸν βασιλέα τῆς Γαί, ἥ ἐστι πλησίον Βαιθήλ,

10 βασιλέα ῾Ιερουσαλήμ, βασιλέα Χεβρών,

11 βασιλέα ῾Ιεριμούθ, βασιλέα Λαχίς,

12 βασιλέα Αἰλάμ, βασιλέα Γαζέρ,

13 βασιλέα Δαβίρ, βασιλέα Γαδέρ,

14 βασιλέα ῾Ερμάθ, βασιλέα ᾿Αράθ,

15 βασιλέα Λεβνά, βασιλέα ᾿Οδολλάμ,

16 βασιλέα ᾿Ηλάθ,

17 βασιλέα Ταφούγ, βασιλέα ᾿Οφέρ,

18-22 βασιλέα ᾿Αφὲκ τῆς Σαρών, βασιλέα ᾿Ασώρ, βασιλέα Συμοών, βασιλέα Μαρών, βασιλέα ᾿Αζίφ, βασιλέα Κάδης, βασιλέα Τανάχ, βασιλέα Μαγεδών, βασιλέα ᾿Ιεκονὰμ τοῦ Χερμέλ,

23 βασιλέα Δὼρ τοῦ Ναφεδδώρ, βασιλέα Γωΐμ τῆς Γαλιλαίας,

24 βασιλέα Θαρσά· πάντες οὗτοι βασιλεῖς εἴκοσιν ἐννέα.


13

ΚΑΙ ᾿Ιησοῦς πρεσβύτερος προβεβηκὼς τῶν ἡμερῶν. καὶ εἶπε Κύριος πρὸς ᾿Ιησοῦν· σὺ προβέβηκας τῶν ἡμερῶν, καὶ ἡ γῆ ὑπολέλειπται πολλὴ εἰς κληρονομίαν.

2 καὶ αὕτη ἡ γῆ καταλελειμμένη· ὅρια Φυλιστιείμ, ὁ Γεσιρὶ καὶ ὁ Χαναναῖος·

3 ἀπὸ τῆς ἀοικήτου τῆς κατὰ πρόσωπον Αἰγύπτου ἕως τῶν ὁρίων ᾿Ακκαρὼν ἐξ εὐωνύμων τῶν Χαναναίων προσλογίζεται ταῖς πέντε σατραπείαις τῶν Φυλιστιείμ, τῷ Γαζαίῳ καὶ τῷ ᾿Αζωτίῳ καὶ τῷ ᾿Ασκαλωνίτῃ καὶ τῷ Γετθαίῳ καὶ τῷ ᾿Ακκαρωνίτῃ· καὶ τῷ Εὐαίῳ

4 ἐκ Θαιμὰν καὶ πάσῃ γῇ Χαναὰν ἐναντίον Γάζης, καὶ οἱ Σιδώνιοι ἕως ᾿Αφέκ, ἕως τῶν ὁρίων τῶν ᾿Αμορραίων,

5 καὶ πᾶσαν τὴν γῆν Γαβλὶ Φυλιστιείμ· καὶ πάντα τὸν Λίβανον ἀπὸ ἀνατολῶν ἡλίου, ἀπὸ Γαλγὰλ ὑπὸ τὸ ὄρος τὸ ᾿Αερμὼν ἕως τῆς εἰσόδου ᾿Εμάθ·

6 πᾶς ὁ κατοικῶν τὴν ὀρεινὴν ἀπὸ τοῦ Λιβάνου ἕως τῆς Μασερεφωθαίμ, πάντας τοὺς Σιδωνίους, ἐγὼ αὐτοὺς ἐξολοθρεύσω ἀπὸ προσώπου ᾿Ισραήλ· ἀλλὰ διάδος αὐτὴν ἐν κλήρῳ τῷ ᾿Ισραήλ, ὃν τρόπον σοι ἐνετειλάμην.

7 καὶ νῦν μέρισον τὴν γῆν ταύτην ἐν κληρονομίᾳ ταῖς ἐννέα φυλαῖς καὶ τῷ ἡμίσει φυλῆς Μανασσῆ· ἀπὸ τοῦ ᾿Ιορδάνου ἕως τῆς θαλάσσης τῆς μεγάλης κατὰ δυσμὰς ἡλίου δώσεις αὐτήν, ἡ θάλασσα ἡ μεγάλη ὁριεῖ.

8 ταῖς δυσὶ φυλαῖς καὶ τῷ ἡμίσει φυλῆς Μανασσῆ, τῷ Ρουβὴν καὶ τῷ Γάδ, ἔδωκε Μωυσῆς ἐν τῷ πέραν τοῦ ᾿Ιορδάνου· κατ' ἀνατολὰς ἡλίου δέδωκεν αὐτὴν Μωυσῆς ὁ παῖς Κυρίου,

9 ἀπὸ ᾿Αροήρ, ἥ ἐστιν ἐπὶ τοῦ χείλους χειμάρρου ᾿Αρνῶν, καὶ τὴν πόλιν τὴν ἐν μέσῳ τῆς φάραγγος καὶ πᾶσαν τὴν Μισὼρ ἀπὸ Μαιδαβὰ ἕως Δαιβάν,

10 πάσας τὰς πόλεις Σηὼν βασιλέως ᾿Αμορραίων, ὃς ἐβασίλευσεν ἐν ᾿Εσεβών, ἕως τῶν ὁρίων υἱῶν ᾿Αμμῶν,

11 καὶ τὴν Γαλααδίτιδα καὶ τὰ ὅρια Γεσιρὶ καὶ τοῦ Μαχατί, πᾶν ὄρος ᾿Αερμὼν καὶ πᾶσαν τὴν Βασανίτιν ἕως Σελλά,

12 πᾶσαν τὴν βασιλείαν ῍Ωγ ἐν τῇ Βασανίτιδι, ὃς ἐβασίλευσεν ἐν ᾿Ασταρὼθ καὶ ἐν ᾿Εδραΐν· οὗτος κατελείφθη ἀπὸ τῶν γιγάντων, καὶ ἐπάταξεν αὐτὸν Μωυσῆς καὶ ἐξωλόθρευσε.

13 καὶ οὐκ ἐξωλόθρευσαν οἱ υἱοὶ ᾿Ισραὴλ τὸν Γεσιρὶ καὶ τὸν Μαχατὶ καὶ τὸν Χαναναῖον, καὶ κατῴκει βασιλεὺς Γεσιρὶ καὶ ὁ Μαχατὶ ἐν τοῖς υἱοῖς ᾿Ισραὴλ ἕως τῆς σήμερον ἡμέρας.

14 πλὴν τῆς φυλῆς Λευὶ οὐκ ἐδόθη κληρονομία· Κύριος ὁ Θεὸς ᾿Ισραήλ, οὗτος κληρονομία αὐτῶν, καθὰ εἶπεν αὐτοῖς Κύριος. καὶ οὗτος ὁ καταμερισμός, ὃν κατεμέρισε Μωυσῆς τοῖς υἱοῖς ᾿Ισραὴλ ἐν ᾿Αραβὼθ Μωὰβ ἐν τῷ πέραν τοῦ ᾿Ιορδάνου κατὰ ῾Ιεριχώ.

15 Καὶ ἔδωκε Μωυσῆς τῇ φυλῇ Ρουβὴν κατὰ δήμους αὐτῶν.

16 καὶ ἐγενήθη αὐτῶν τὰ ὅρια ἀπὸ ᾿Αροήρ, ἥ ἐστι κατὰ πρόσωπον φάραγγος ᾿Αρνῶν, καὶ ἡ πόλις ἡ ἐν τῇ φάραγγι ᾿Αρνῶν. καὶ πᾶσαν τὴν Μισὼρ ἕως ᾿Εσεβὼν

17 καὶ πάσας τὰς πόλεις τὰς οὔσας ἐν τῇ Μισὼρ καὶ Δαιβὼν καὶ Βαμωθβάαλ καὶ οἴκου Βεελμὼν

18 καὶ ᾿Ιασσὰ καὶ Κεδημὼθ καὶ Μεφαὰθ

19 καὶ Καριαθαὶμ καὶ Σεβαμὰ καὶ Σεραδὰ καὶ Σιὼρ ἐν τῷ ὄρει ᾿Εμὰκ

20 καὶ Βαιθφογὸρ καὶ ᾿Ασηδὼθ Φασγὰ καὶ Βαιθασειμὼθ

21 καὶ πάσας τὰς πόλεις τοῦ Μισὼρ καὶ πᾶσαν τὴν βασιλείαν τοῦ Σηὼν βασιλέως τῶν ᾿Αμορραίων, ὃν ἐπάταξε Μωυσῆς αὐτὸν καὶ τοὺς ἡγουμένους Μαδιὰμ καὶ τὸν Εὐὶ καὶ τὸν Ροκὸμ καὶ τὸν Σοὺρ καὶ τὸν Οὒρ καὶ τὸν Ροβὲ ἄρχοντας παρὰ Σηὼν καὶ τοὺς κατοικοῦντας τὴν γῆν.

22 καὶ τὸν Βαλαὰμ τὸν τοῦ Βεώρ, τὸν μάντιν, ἀπέκτειναν ἐν τῇ ροπῇ.

23 ἐγένετο δὲ τὰ ὅρια Ρουβήν· ᾿Ιορδάνης ὅριον, αὕτη ἡ κληρονομία υἱῶν Ρουβὴν κατὰ δήμους αὐτῶν, αἱ πόλεις αὐτῶν καὶ αἱ ἐπαύλεις αὐτῶν.

 

24 ἔδωκε δὲ Μωυσῆς τοῖς υἱοῖς Γὰδ κατὰ δήμους αὐτῶν.

25 καὶ ἐγένετο τὰ ὅρια αὐτῶν ᾿Ιαζήρ, πᾶσαι πόλεις Γαλαὰδ καὶ τὸ ἥμισυ γῆς υἱῶν ᾿Αμμῶν ἕως ᾿Αροήρ, ἥ ἐστι κατὰ πρόσωπον Ραββά,

26 καὶ ἀπὸ ᾿Εσεβὼν ἕως Ραμὼθ κατὰ τὴν Μασσηφὰ καὶ Βοτανὶμ καὶ Μααναΐν ἕως τῶν ὁρίων Δαβίρ,

27 καὶ ᾿Εμὲκ Βαιθαρὰμ Βανθαναβρὰ καὶ Σοκχωθὰ καὶ Σαφὰν καὶ τὴν λοιπὴν βασιλείαν Σηὼν βασιλέως ᾿Εσεβών, καὶ ὁ ᾿Ιορδάνης ὁριεῖ ἕως μέρους τῆς θαλάσσης Χενερὲθ πέραν τοῦ ᾿Ιορδάνου ἀπ' ἀνατολῶν.

28 αὕτη ἡ κληρονομία υἱῶν Γὰδ κατὰ δήμους αὐτῶν, αἱ πόλεις αὐτῶν καὶ αἱ ἐπαύλεις αὐτῶν.

29 καὶ ἔδωκε Μωυσῆς τῷ ἡμίσει φυλῆς Μανασσῆ κατὰ δήμους αὐτῶν.

30 καὶ ἐγένετο τὰ ὅρια αὐτῶν ἀπὸ Μααναΐμ καὶ πᾶσα βασιλεία Βασανὶ καὶ πᾶσα βασιλεία ῍Ωγ βασιλέως τῆς Βασὰν καὶ πάσας τὰς κώμας ᾿Ιαΐρ, αἵ εἰσιν ἐν τῇ Νασανίτιδι, ἑξήκοντα πόλεις,

31 καὶ τὸ ἥμισυ τῆς Γαλαὰδ καὶ ἐν ᾿Ασταρὼθ καὶ ἐν ᾿Εδραΐν, πόλεις βασιλείας ῍Ωγ ἐν τῇ Βασανίτιδι καὶ ἐδόθησαν τοῖς υἱοῖς Μαχὶρ υἱοῦ Μανασσῆ, κατὰ δήμους αὐτῶν.

 

32 οὗτοι οὓς κατεκληρονόμησε Μωυσῆς πέραν τοῦ ᾿Ιορδάνου ἐν ᾿Αραβὼθ Μωὰβ ἐν τῷ πέραν τοῦ ᾿Ιορδάνου τοῦ κατὰ ῾Ιεριχὼ ἀπ' ἀνατολῶν.


14

ΚΑΙ οὗτοι οἱ κατακληρονομήσαντες υἱῶν ᾿Ισραὴλ ἐν τῇ γῇ Χαναάν, οἷς κατεκληρονόμησαν αὐτοῖς ᾿Ελεάζαρ ὁ ἱερεὺς καὶ ᾿Ιησοῦς ὁ τοῦ Ναυὴ καὶ οἱ ἄρχοντες πατριῶν φυλῶν τῶν υἱῶν ᾿Ισραήλ.

2 κατὰ κλήρους ἐκληρονόμησαν, ὃν τρόπον ἐνετείλατο Κύριος ἐν χειρὶ ᾿Ιησοῦ ταῖς ἐννέα φυλαῖς καὶ τῷ ἡμίσει φυλῆς ἀπὸ τοῦ πέραν τοῦ ᾿Ιορδάνου,

3 καὶ τοῖς Λευίταις οὐκ ἔδωκε κλῆρον ἐν αὐτοῖς,

 

4 ὅτι ἦσαν οἱ υἱοὶ ᾿Ιωσὴφ δύο φυλαὶ Μανασσῆ καὶ ᾿Εφραίμ, καὶ οὐκ ἐδόθη μερὶς ἐν τῇ γῇ τοῖς Λευίταις, ἀλλ' ἢ πόλεις κατοικεῖν καὶ τὰ ἀφωρισμένα αὐτῶν τοῖς κτήνεσι καὶ τὰ κτήνη αὐτῶν.

5 ὃν τρόπον ἐνετείλατο Κύριος τῷ Μωυσῇ, οὕτως ἐποίησαν οἱ υἱοὶ ᾿Ισραὴλ καὶ ἐμέρισαν τὴν γῆν.

6 Καὶ προσήλθοσαν οἱ υἱοὶ ᾿Ιούδα πρὸς ᾿Ιησοῦν ἐν Γαλγάλ, καὶ εἶπε πρὸς αὐτὸν Χάλεβ ὁ τοῦ ᾿Ιεφονὴ ὁ Κενεζαῖος· σὺ ἐπίστῃ τὸ ρῆμα, ὃ ἐλάλησε Κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν ἄνθρωπον τοῦ Θεοῦ περὶ ἐμοῦ καὶ σοῦ ἐν Κάδης Βαρνή·

7 τεσσαράκοντα γὰρ ἐτῶν ἤμην ὅτε ἀπέστειλέ με Μωυσῆς ὁ παῖς τοῦ Θεοῦ ἐκ Κάδης Βαρνὴ κατασκοπεῦσαι τὴν γῆν, καὶ ἀπεκρίθην αὐτῷ λόγον κατὰ τὸν νοῦν αὐτοῦ,

8 οἱ ἀδελφοί μου οἱ ἀναβάντες μετ' ἐμοῦ μετέστησαν τὴν καρδίαν τοῦ λαοῦ, ἐγὼ δὲ προσετέθην ἐπακολουθῆσαι Κυρίῳ τῷ Θεῷ μου,

9 καὶ ὤμοσε Μωυσῆς ἐν ἐκείνῃ τῇ ἡμέρᾳ λέγων· ἡ γῆ, ἐφ' ἣν ἐπέβης, σοὶ ἔσται ἐν κλήρῳ καὶ τοῖς τέκνοις σου εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα, ὅτι προσετέθης ἐπακολουθῆσαι ὀπίσω Κυρίου τοῦ Θεοῦ ἡμῶν.

10 καὶ νῦν διέθρεψέ με Κύριος, ὃν τρόπον εἶπε, τοῦτο τεσσαρακοστὸν καὶ πέμπτον ἔτος, ἀφ' οὗ ἐλάλησε Κύριος τὸ ρῆμα τοῦτο πρὸς Μωυσῆν καὶ ἐπορεύθη ᾿Ισραὴλ ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ. καὶ νῦν ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ σήμερον ὀγδοήκοντα καὶ πέντε ἐτῶν·

11 ἔτι εἰμὶ σήμερον ἰσχύων, ὡσεὶ ὅτε ἀπέστειλέ με Μωυσῆς, ὡσαύτως ἰσχύω νῦν ἐξελθεῖν καὶ εἰσελθεῖν εἰς τὸν πόλεμον.

12 καὶ νῦν αἰτοῦμαί σε τὸ ὄρος τοῦτο, καθὰ εἶπε Κύριος τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ· ὅτι σὺ ἀκήκοας τὸ ρῆμα τοῦτο ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ. νῦν δὲ οἱ ᾿Ενακὶμ ἐκεῖ εἰσι, πόλεις ὀχυραὶ καὶ μεγάλαι· ἐὰν οὖν Κύριος μετ' ἐμοῦ ᾖ, ἐξολοθρεύσω αὐτούς, ὃν τρόπον εἰπέ μοι Κύριος.

13 καὶ εὐλόγησεν αὐτὸν ᾿Ιησοῦς καὶ ἔδωκε Χεβρὼν τῷ Χάλεβ υἱῷ ᾿Ιεφονὴ υἱῷ Κενὲζ ἐν κλήρῳ.

 

14 διὰ τοῦτο ἐγενήθη ἡ Χεβρὼν τῷ Χάλεβ τῷ τοῦ ᾿Ιεφονὴ τοῦ Κενεζαίου ἐν κλήρῳ ἕως τῆς ἡμέρας ταύτης, διὰ τὸ αὐτὸν ἐπακολουθῆσαι τῷ προστάγματι Κυρίου Θεοῦ ᾿Ισραήλ.

15 τὸ δὲ ὄνομα τῆς Χεβρὼν ἦν τὸ πρότερον πόλις ᾿Αρβόκ· μητρόπολις τῶν ᾿Ενακὶμ αὕτη. καὶ ἡ γῆ ἐκόπασε τοῦ πολέμου.


15

ΚΑΙ ἐγένετο τὰ ὅρια φυλῆς ᾿Ιούδα κατὰ δήμους αὐτῶν ἀπὸ τῶν ὁρίων τῆς ᾿Ιδουμαίας ἀπὸ τῆς ἐρήμου Σὶν ἕως Κάδης πρὸς λίβα.

2 καὶ ἐγενήθη αὐτῶν τὰ ὅρια ἀπὸ λιβὸς ἕως μέρους θαλάσσης τῆς ἁλυκῆς, ἀπὸ τῆς λοφιᾶς τῆς φερούσης ἐπὶ λίβα

3 καὶ διαπορεύεται ἀπέναντι τῆς προσαναβάσεως ᾿Ακραβὶν καὶ ἐκπεριπορεύεται Σενὰ καὶ ἀναβαίνει ἀπὸ λιβὸς ἐπὶ Κάδης Βαρνὴ καὶ ἐκπορεύεται ᾿Ασωρὼν καὶ προσαναβαίνει εἰς Σάραδα καὶ ἐκπορεύεται τὴν κατὰ δυσμὰς Κάδης

4 καὶ ἐκπορεύεται ἐπὶ Σελμωνὰν καὶ διεκβάλλει ἕως φάραγγος Αἰγύπτου, καὶ ἔσται αὐτοῦ ἡ διέξοδος τῶν ὁρίων ἐπὶ τὴν θάλασσαν· τοῦτό ἐστιν αὐτῶν ὅρια ἀπὸ λιβός.

5 καὶ τὰ ὅρια ἀπὸ ἀνατολῶν· πᾶσα ἡ θάλασσα ἡ ἁλυκὴ ἕως τοῦ ᾿Ιορδάνου. καὶ τὰ ὅρια αὐτῶν ἀπὸ βορρᾶ καὶ ἀπὸ τῆς λοφιᾶς τῆς θαλάσσης καὶ ἀπὸ τοῦ μέρους τοῦ ᾿Ιορδάνου·

6 ἐπιβαίνει τὰ ὅρια ἐπὶ Βαιθαγλὰ καὶ παραπορεύεται ἀπὸ Βορρᾶ ἐπὶ Βαιθάραβα, καὶ προσαναβαίνει τὰ ὅρια ἐπὶ λίθον Βαιὼν υἱοῦ Ρουβήν,

7 καὶ προσαναβαίνει τὰ ὅρια ἐπὶ τὸ τέταρτον τῆς φάραγγος ᾿Αχὼρ καὶ καταβαίνει ἐπὶ Γαλγάλ, ἥ ἐστιν ἀπέναντι τῆς προσβάσεως ᾿Αδδαμίν, ἥ ἐστι κατὰ λίβα τῇ φάραγγι, καὶ διεκβάλλει ἐπὶ τὸ ὕδωρ πηγῆς τοῦ ἡλίου, καὶ ἔσται αὐτοῦ ἡ διέξοδος πηγὴ Ρωγήλ,

8 καὶ ἀναβαίνει τὰ ὅρια εἰς φάραγγα ᾿Ονὸμ ἐπὶ νώτου ᾿Ιεβοῦς ἀπὸ λιβὸς (αὕτη ἐστὶν ῾Ιερουσαλὴμ) καὶ διεκβάλλει τὰ ὅρια ἐπὶ κορυφὴν ὄρους, ἥ ἐστι κατὰ πρόσωπον φάραγγος ᾿Ονὸμ πρὸς θαλάσσης, ἥ ἐστιν ἐκ μέρους γῆς Ραφαΐν ἐπὶ βορρᾶ,

9 καὶ διεκβάλλει τὸ ὅριον ἀπὸ κορυφῆς τοῦ ὄρους ἐπὶ πηγὴν ὕδατος Ναφθὼ καὶ διεκβάλλει εἰς τὸ ὄρος ᾿Εφρών, καὶ ἄξει τὸ ὅριον εἰς Βαὰλ (αὕτη ἐστὶ πόλις ᾿Ιαρίμ),

10 καὶ περιελεύσεται ὅριον ἀπὸ Βαὰλ ἐπὶ θάλασσαν καὶ παρελεύσεται εἰς ὄρος ᾿Ασσὰρ ἐπὶ νώτου, Πόλιν ᾿Ιαρὶν ἀπὸ βορρᾶ (αὕτη ἐστὶ Χασλὼν) καὶ καταβήσεται ἐπὶ Πόλιν ἡλίου καὶ παρελεύσεται ἐπὶ λίβα,

11 καὶ διεκβάλλει τὸ ὅριον κατὰ νώτου ᾿Ακκαρὼν ἐπὶ βορρᾶν, καὶ διεκβαλεῖ τὰ ὅρια εἰς Σοκχὼθ καὶ παρελεύσεται ὅρια ἐπὶ λίβα καὶ διεκβαλεῖ ἐπὶ Λεβνά, καὶ ἔσται ἡ διέξοδος τῶν ὁρίων ἐπὶ θάλασσαν. καὶ τὰ ὅρια αὐτῶν ἀπὸ θαλάσσης· ἡ θάλασσα ἡ μεγάλη ὁριεῖ.

12 ταῦτα τὰ ὅρια υἱῶν ᾿Ιούδα κύκλῳ κατὰ δήμους αὐτῶν.

13 καὶ τῷ Χάλεβ υἱῷ ᾿Ιεφονὴ ἔδωκε μερίδα ἐν μέσῳ υἱῶν ᾿Ιούδα διὰ προστάγματος τοῦ Θεοῦ, καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτῷ ᾿Ιησοῦς τὴν πόλιν ᾿Αρβὸκ μητρόπολιν ᾿Ενὰκ (αὕτη ἐστὶ Χεβρών).

14 καὶ ἐξωλόθρευσεν ἐκεῖθεν Χάλεβ υἱὸς ᾿Ιεφονὴ τοὺς τρεῖς υἱοὺς ᾿Ενάκ, τὸν Σουσὶ καὶ Θολαμὶ καὶ τὸν ᾿Αχιμᾶ.

15 καὶ ἀνέβη ἐκεῖθεν Χάλεβ ἐπὶ τοὺς κατοικοῦντας Δαβίρ· τὸ δὲ ὄνομα Δαβὶρ ἦν τὸ πρότερον Πόλις γραμμάτων.

16 καὶ εἶπε Χάλεβ· ὃς ἐὰν λάβῃ καὶ ἐκκόψῃ τὴν Πόλιν τῶν γραμμάτων καὶ κυριεύσῃ αὐτῆς, δώσω αὐτῷ τὴν ᾿Ασχὰν θυγατέρα μου εἰς γυναῖκα·

17 καὶ ἔλαβεν αὐτὴν Γοθονιὴλ υἱὸς Κενὲζ ἀδελφὸς Χάλεβ ὁ νεώτερος καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτῷ τὴν ᾿Ασχὰν θυγατέρα αὐτοῦ γυναῖκα.

18 καὶ ἐγένετο ἐν τῷ ἐκπορεύεσθαι αὐτὴν καὶ συνεβουλεύσατο αὐτῷ λέγουσα· αἰτήσομαι τὸν πατέρα μου ἀγρόν· καὶ ἐβόησεν ἐκ τοῦ ὄνου. καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῇ Χάλεβ· τί ἐστί σοι;

19 καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ· δός μοι εὐλογίαν, ὅτι εἰς γῆν Ναγὲβ δέδωκάς με· δός μοι τὴν Γολαθμαίν. καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτῇ Χάλεβ τὴν Γολαθμαὶν τὴν ἄνω καὶ τὴν Γολαθμαὶν τὴν κάτω.

20 αὕτη ἡ κληρονομία φυλῆς υἱῶν ᾿Ιούδα.

16

ΚΑΙ ἐγένετο τὰ ὅρια υἱῶν ᾿Ιωσὴφ ἀπὸ τοῦ ᾿Ιορδάνου τοῦ κατὰ ῾Ιεριχὼ ἀπὸ ἀνατολῶν καὶ ἀναβήσεται ἀπὸ ῾Ιεριχὼ εἰς τὴν ὀρεινήν, τὴν ἔρημον, εἰς Βαιθὴλ Λουζά,

2 καὶ ἐξελεύσεται εἰς Βαιθὴλ καὶ παρελεύσεται ἐπὶ τὰ ὅρια τοῦ ᾿Αχαταρωθὶ

3 καὶ διελεύσεται ἐπὶ τὴν θάλασσαν ἐπὶ τὰ ὅρια ᾿Απταλὶμ ἕως τῶν ὁρίων Βαιθωρὼν τὴν κάτω, καὶ ἔσται ἡ διέξοδος αὐτῶν ἐπὶ τὴν θάλασσαν.

4 καὶ ἐκληρονόμησαν οἱ υἱοὶ ᾿Ιωσὴφ ᾿Εφραὶμ καὶ Μανασσῆ·

5 καὶ ἐγενήθη ὅρια υἱῶν ᾿Εφραὶμ κατὰ δήμους αὐτῶν· καὶ ἐγενήθη τὰ ὅρια τῆς κληρονομίας αὐτῶν ἀπ' ἀνατολῶν ᾿Αταρὼθ καὶ ᾿Ερὼκ ἕως Βαιθωρὼν τὴν ἄνω καὶ Γαζαρά,

6 καὶ διελεύσεται τὰ ὅρια ἐπὶ τὴν θάλασσαν εἰς ᾿Ικασμὼν ἀπὸ βορρᾶ Θερμά, περιελεύσεται ἐπ' ἀνατολὰς εἰς Θηνασὰ καὶ Σελλησὰ καὶ παρελεύσεται ἀπ' ἀνατολῶν εἰς ᾿Ιανωκὰ

7 καὶ εἰς Μαχώ, καὶ ᾿Αταρὼθ καὶ αἱ κῶμαι αὐτῶν καὶ ἐλεύσεται ἐπὶ ῾Ιεριχὼ καὶ διεκβαλεῖ ἐπὶ τὸν ᾿Ιορδάνην.

8 καὶ ἀπὸ Τάφου πορεύσεται τὰ ὅρια ἐπὶ θάλασσαν ἐπὶ Χελκανά, καὶ ἔσται ἡ διέξοδος αὐτῶν ἐπὶ θάλασσαν· αὕτη ἡ κληρονομία φυλῆς ᾿Εφραὶμ κατὰ δήμους αὐτῶν.

9 καὶ αἱ πόλεις αἱ ἀφορισθεῖσαι τοῖς υἱοῖς ᾿Εφραὶμ ἀνὰ μέσον τῆς κληρονομίας υἱῶν Μανασσῆ, πᾶσαι αἱ πόλεις καὶ αἱ κῶμαι αὐτῶν.

10 καὶ οὐκ ἀπώλεσεν ᾿Εφραὶμ τὸν Χαναναῖον τὸν κατοικοῦντα ἐν Γαζέρ, καὶ κατῴκει ὁ Χαναναῖος ἐν τῷ ᾿Εφραὶμ ἕως τῆς ἡμέρας ταύτης, ἕως ἀνέβη Φαραὼ βασιλεὺς Αἰγύπτου καὶ ἔλαβεν αὐτὴν καὶ ἐνέπρησεν αὐτὴν ἐν πυρί, καὶ τοὺς Χαναναίους καὶ τοὺς Φερεζαίους καὶ τοὺς κατοικοῦντας ἐν Γαζὲρ ἐξεκέντησαν, καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτὴν Φαραὼ ἐν φερνῇ τῇ θυγατρὶ αὐτοῦ.


17

ΚΑΙ ἐγένετο τὰ ὅρια φυλῆς υἱῶν Μανασσῆ, ὅτι οὗτος πρωτότοκος τῷ ᾿Ιωσήφ· τῷ Μαχὶρ πρωτοτόκῳ Μανασσῆ πατρὶ Γαλαάδ (ἀνὴρ γὰρ πολεμιστὴς ἦν) ἐν τῇ Γαλααδίτιδι καὶ ἐν τῇ Βασανίτιδι.

2 καὶ ἐγενήθη τοῖς υἱοῖς Μανασσῆ τοῖς λοιποῖς κατὰ δήμους αὐτῶν, τοῖς υἱοῖς ᾿Ιεζὲρ καὶ τοῖς υἱοῖς Κελὲζ καὶ τοῖς υἱοῖς ῾Ιεζιὴλ καὶ τοῖς υἱοῖς Συχὲμ καὶ τοῖς υἱοῖς Συμαρὶμ καὶ τοῖς υἱοῖς ᾿Οφέρ· οὗτοι ἄρσενες κατὰ δήμους αὐτῶν.

 

3 καὶ τῷ Σαλπαὰδ υἱῷ ᾿Οφὲρ οὐκ ἦσαν αὐτῷ υἱοί, ἀλλ' ἢ θυγατέρες. καὶ ταῦτα τὰ ὀνόματα τῶν θυγατέρων Σαλπαάδ· Μααλὰ καὶ Νουὰ καὶ ᾿Εγλὰ καὶ Μελχὰ καὶ Θερσά.

4 καὶ ἔστησαν ἐναντίον ᾿Ελεάζαρ τοῦ ἱερέως, καὶ ἐναντίον ᾿Ιησοῦ, καὶ ἐναντίον τῶν ἀρχόντων λέγουσαι· ὁ Θεὸς ἐνετείλατο διά χειρὸς Μωυσῆ δοῦναι ἡμῖν κληρονομίαν ἐν μέσῳ τῶν ἀδελφῶν ἡμῶν. καὶ ἐδόθη αὐταῖς διὰ προστάγματος Κυρίου κλῆρος ἐν τοῖς ἀδελφοῖς τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτῶν.

5 καὶ ἔπεσεν ὁ σχοινισμὸς αὐτῶν ἀπὸ ᾿Ανάσσα καὶ πεδίον Λαβὲκ ἐκ τῆς γῆς Γαλαάδ, ἥ ἐστι πέραν τοῦ ᾿Ιορδάνου·

6 ὅτι θυγατέρες υἱῶν Μανασσῆ ἐκληρονόμησαν κλῆρον ἐν μέσῳ τῶν ἀδελφῶν αὐτῶν· ἡ δὲ γῆ Γαλαὰδ ἐγενήθη τοῖς υἱοῖς Μανασσῆ τοῖς καταλελειμμένοις.

7 καὶ ἐγενήθη ὅρια υἱῶν Μανασσῆ Δηλανάθ, ἥ ἐστι κατὰ πρόσωπον υἱῶν ᾿Ανάθ, καὶ πορεύεται ἐπὶ τὰ ὅρια ἐπὶ ᾿Ιαμὶν καὶ ᾿Ιασσὶβ ἐπὶ πηγὴν Θαφθώθ·

8 τῷ Μανασσῇ ἔσται, καὶ Θαφὲθ ἐπὶ τῶν ὁρίων Μανασσῆ, τοῖς υἱοῖς ᾿Εφραίμ.

 

9 καὶ καταβήσεται τὰ ὅρια ἐπὶ φάραγγα Καρανὰ ἐπὶ λίβα κατὰ φάραγγα ᾿Ιαριήλ, τερέβινθος τῷ ᾿Εφραὶμ ἀνὰ μέσον πόλεως Μανασσῆ· καὶ ὅρια Μανασσῆ ἐπὶ τὸν βορρᾶν εἰς τὸν χειμάρρουν, καὶ ἔσται αὐτοῦ ἡ διέξοδος θάλασσα.

 

10 ἀπὸ λιβὸς τῷ ᾿Εφραίμ, καὶ ἐπὶ βορρᾶν Μανασσῆ, καὶ ἔσται ἡ θάλασσα ὅρια αὐτοῖς· καὶ ἐπὶ ᾿Ασὴβ συνάψουσιν ἐπὶ βορρᾶν καὶ τῷ ᾿Ισσάχαρ ἀπὸ ἀνατολῶν.

11 καὶ ἔσται Μανασσῆ ἐν ᾿Ισσάχαρ καὶ ἐν ᾿Ασὴρ Βαιθσὰν καὶ αἱ κῶμαι αὐτῶν καὶ τοὺς κατοικοῦντας Δὼρ καὶ τὰς κώμας αὐτῆς, καὶ τοὺς κατοικοῦντας Μαγεδδώ, καὶ τὰς κώμας αὐτῆς, καὶ τὸ τρίτον τῆς Ναφετὰ καὶ τὰς κώμας αὐτῆς.

12 καὶ οὐκ ἠδυνάσθησαν οἱ υἱοὶ Μανασσῆ ἐξολοθρεῦσαι τὰς πόλεις ταύτας, καὶ ἤρχετο ὁ Χαναναῖος κατοικεῖν ἐν τῇ γῇ ταύτῃ·

13 καὶ ἐγενήθη καὶ ἐπεὶ κατίσχυσαν οἱ υἱοὶ ᾿Ισραήλ, καὶ ἐποίησαν τοὺς Χαναναίους ὑπηκόους, ἐξολοθρεῦσαι δὲ αὐτοὺς οὐκ ἐξωλόθρευσαν.

14 ἀντεῖπαν δὲ οἱ υἱοὶ ᾿Ιωσὴφ τῷ ᾿Ιησοῖ λέγοντες· διατί ἐκληρονόμησας ἡμᾶς κλῆρον ἕνα καὶ σχοίνισμα ἕν; ἐγὼ δὲ λαὸς πολύς εἰμι, καὶ ὁ Θεὸς εὐλόγησέ με.

15 καὶ εἶπεν αὐτοῖς ᾿Ιησοῦς· εἰ λαὸς πολὺς εἶ, ἀνάβηθι εἰς τὸν δρυμὸν καὶ ἐκκάθαρον σεαυτῷ, εἰ στενοχωρεῖ σε τὸ ὄρος τὸ ᾿Εφραίμ.

16 καὶ εἶπαν· οὐκ ἀρέσκει ἡμῖν τὸ ὄρος τὸ ᾿Εφραίμ, καὶ ἵππος ἐπίλεκτος καὶ σίδηρος τῷ Χαναναίῳ τῷ κατοικοῦντι ἐν αὐτῷ ἐν Βαιθσὰν καὶ ἐν ταῖς κώμαις αὐτῆς, ἐν τῇ κοιλάδι ᾿Ιεσραέλ.

17 καὶ εἶπεν ᾿Ιησοῦς τοῖς υἱοῖς ᾿Ιωσήφ· εἰ λαὸς πολὺς εἶ, καὶ ἰσχὺν μεγάλην ἔχεις, οὐκ ἔσται σοι κλῆρος εἷς·

18 ὁ γὰρ δρυμὸς ἔσται σοι, ὅτι δρυμός ἐστι καὶ ἐκκαθαριεῖς αὐτόν, καὶ ἔσται σοι· καὶ ὅταν ἐξολοθρεύσῃς τὸν Χαναναῖον, ὅτι ἵππος ἐπίλεκτος αὐτῷ ἐστι, σὺ γὰρ ὑπερισχύεις αὐτοῦ.

 

 
18

ΚΑΙ ἐξεκκλησιάσθη πᾶσα συναγωγὴ υἱῶν ᾿Ισραὴλ εἰς Σηλὼ καὶ ἔπηξαν ἐκεῖ τὴν σκηνὴν τοῦ μαρτυρίου, καὶ ἡ γῆ ἐκρατήθη ὑπ' αὐτῶν.

 

2 καὶ κατελείφθησαν οἱ υἱοὶ ᾿Ισραήλ, οἳ οὐκ ἐκληρονόμησαν, ἑπτὰ φυλαί.

3 καὶ εἶπεν ᾿Ιησοῦς τοῖς υἱοῖς ᾿Ισραήλ· ἕως τίνος ἐκλυθήσεσθε κληρονομῆσαι τὴν γῆν, ἣν ἔδωκε Κύριος ὁ Θεὸς ἡμῶν;

4 δότε ἐξ ὑμῶν ἄνδρας τρεῖς ἐκ φυλῆς, καὶ ἀναστάντες διελθέτωσαν τὴν γῆν καὶ διαγραψάτωσαν αὐτὴν ἐναντίον μου, καθὰ δεήσει διελεῖν αὐτήν (καὶ διήλθοσαν πρὸς αὐτόν,

5 καὶ διεῖλεν αὐτοῖς ἑπτὰ μερίδας). ᾿Ιούδας στήσεται αὐτοῖς ὅριον ἀπὸ λιβός, καὶ οἱ υἱοὶ ᾿Ιωσὴφ στήσονται αὐτοῖς ἀπὸ βορρᾶ.

 

6 ὑμεῖς δὲ μερίσατε τὴν γῆν ἑπτὰ μερίδας καὶ ἐνέγκατε ὧδε πρός με, καὶ ἐξοίσω ὑμῖν κλῆρον ἔναντι Κυρίου τοῦ Θεοῦ ἡμῶν.

7 οὐ γάρ ἐστι μερὶς τοῖς υἱοῖς Λευὶ ἐν ὑμῖν, ἱερατεία γὰρ Κυρίου μερὶς αὐτοῦ· καὶ Γὰδ καὶ Ρουβὴν καὶ τὸ ἥμισυ φυλῆς Μανασσῆ ἐλάβοσαν τὴν κληρονομίαν αὐτῶν πέραν τοῦ ᾿Ιορδάνου ἐπ' ἀνατολάς, ἣν ἔδωκεν αὐτοῖς Μωυσῆς ὁ παῖς Κυρίου.

8 καὶ ἀναστάντες οἱ ἄνδρες ἐπορεύθησαν, καὶ ἐνετείλατο ᾿Ιησοῦς τοῖς ἀνδράσι τοῖς πορευομένοις χωροβατῆσαι τὴν γῆν λέγων· πορεύεσθε καὶ χωροβατήσατε τὴν γῆν καὶ παραγενήθητε πρός με, καὶ ὧδε ἐξοίσω ὑμῖν κλῆρον ἔναντι Κυρίου ἐν Σηλώ.

9 καὶ ἐπορεύθησαν καὶ ἐχωροβάτησαν τὴν γῆν καὶ εἴδοσαν αὐτὴν καὶ ἔγραψαν αὐτὴν κατὰ πόλεις, ἑπτὰ μερίδας εἰς βιβλίον, καὶ ἤνεγκαν πρὸς ᾿Ιησοῦν.

10 καὶ ἐνέβαλεν αὐτοῖς ᾿Ιησοῦς κλῆρον ἐν Σηλὼ ἔναντι Κυρίου.

11 Καὶ ἐξῆλθεν ὁ κλῆρος φυλῆς Βενιαμὶν πρῶτος κατὰ δήμους αὐτῶν, καὶ ἐξῆλθεν ὅρια τοῦ κλήρου αὐτῶν ἀνὰ μέσον υἱῶν ᾿Ιούδα καὶ ἀνὰ μέσον τῶν υἱῶν ᾿Ιωσήφ.

12 καὶ ἐγενήθη αὐτῶν τὰ ὅρια ἀπὸ βορρᾶ, ἀπὸ τοῦ ᾿Ιορδάνου προσαναβήσεται τὰ ὅρια κατὰ νώτου ῾Ιεριχὼ ἀπὸ βορρᾶ καὶ ἀναβήσεται ἐπὶ τὸ ὄρος ἐπὶ τὴν θάλασσαν, καὶ ἔσται αὐτοῦ ἡ διέξοδος ἡ Μαβδαρῖτις Βαιθών,

13 καὶ διελεύσεται ἐκεῖθεν τὰ ὅρια Λουζὰ ἐπὶ νώτου Λουζὰ ἀπὸ λιβὸς (αὕτη ἐστὶ Βαιθήλ), καὶ καταβήσεται τὰ ὅρια Μααταρωθορὲχ ἐπὶ τὴν ὀρεινήν, ἥ ἐστι πρὸς λίβα Βαιθωρὼν ἡ κάτω,

14 καὶ διελεύσεται τὰ ὅρια καὶ περιελεύσεται ἐπὶ τὸ μέρος τὸ βλέπον παρὰ θάλασσαν ἀπὸ λιβὸς ἀπὸ τοῦ ὄρους ἐπὶ πρόσωπον Βαιθωρὼν λίβα, καὶ ἔσται αὐτοῦ ἡ διέξοδος εἰς Καριαθβάαλ (αὕτη ἐστὶ Καριαθιαρίν, πόλις υἱῶν ᾿Ιούδα)· τοῦτό ἐστι τὸ μέρος τὸ πρὸς θάλασσαν.

15 καὶ μέρος τὸ πρὸς λίβα ἀπό μέρους Καριαθβάαλ, καὶ διελεύσεται ὅρια εἰς Γασὶν ἐπὶ πηγὴν ὕδατος Ναφθώ,

16 καὶ καταβήσεται τὰ ὅρια ἐπὶ μέρους τοῦ ὄρους, ὅ ἐστι κατὰ πρόσωπον νάπης ᾿Οννάμ, ὅ ἐστιν ἐκ μέρους ᾿Εμεκραφαΐν ἀπὸ βορρᾶ, καὶ καταβήσεται Γαίεννα ἐπὶ νῶτον ᾿Ιεβουσαὶ ἀπὸ λιβὸς καὶ καταβήσεται ἐπὶ πηγὴν Ρωγὴλ

17 καὶ διελεύσεται ἐπὶ πηγὴν Βαιθσαμὺς καὶ παρελεύσεται ἐπὶ Γαλιλώθ, ἥ ἐστιν ἀπέναντι πρὸς ἀνάβασαιν Αἰθαμίν, καὶ καταβήσεται ἐπὶ λίθον Βαιὼν υἱῶν Ρουβὴν

18 καὶ διελεύσεται κατὰ νώτου Βαιθάραβα ἀπὸ βορρᾶ, καὶ καταβήσεται ἐπὶ τὰ ὅρια ἐπὶ νῶτον θάλασσαν ἀπὸ βορρᾶ,

19 καὶ ἔσται ἡ διέξοδος τῶν ὁρίων ἐπὶ λοφιὰν τῆς θαλάσσης τῶν ἁλῶν ἐπὶ βορρᾶν εἰς μέρος τοῦ ᾿Ιορδάνου ἀπὸ λιβός· ταῦτα τὰ ὅριά ἐστιν ἀπὸ λιβός.

20 καὶ ὁ ᾿Ιορδάνης ὁριεῖ ἀπὸ μέρους ἀνατολῶν. αὕτη ἡ κληρονομία υἱῶν Βενιαμίν, τὰ ὅρια αὐτῆς κύκλῳ κατὰ δήμους.

 

21 καὶ ἐγενήθησαν αἱ πόλεις τῶν υἱῶν Βενιαμὶν κατὰ δήμους αὐτῶν ῾Ιεριχὼ καὶ Βεθεγαιὼ καὶ ᾿Αμεκασίς,

19

9 ἀπὸ τοῦ κλήρου τοῦ ᾿Ιούδα ἡ κληρονομία φυλῆς υἱῶν Συμεών, ὅτι ἐγενήθη ἡ μερὶς υἱῶν ᾿Ιούδα μείζων τῆς αὐτῶν καὶ ἐκληρονόμησαν οἱ υἱοὶ Συμεὼν ἐν μέσῳ τοῦ κλήρου αὐτῶν.

10 Καὶ ἐξῆλθεν ὁ κλῆρος ὁ τρίτος τῷ Ζαβουλὼν κατὰ δήμους αὐτῶν. ἔσται τὰ ὅρια τῆς κληρονομίας αὐτῶν ᾿Εσεδεκγωλά· ὅρια αὐτῶν

47 αὕτη ἡ κληρονομία φυλῆς υἱῶν Δὰν κατὰ δήμους αὐτῶν, αἱ πόλεις αὐτῶν καὶ αἱ κῶμαι αὐτῶν. καὶ οὐκ ἐξέθλιψαν οἱ υἱοὶ Δὰν τὸν ᾿Αμορραῖον τὸν θλίβοντα αὐτοὺς ἐν τῷ ὄρει· καὶ οὐκ εἴων αὐτοὺς οἱ ᾿Αμορραῖοι καταβῆναι εἰς τὴν κοιλάδα καὶ ἔθλιψαν ἀπ' αὐτῶν τὸ ὅριον τῆς μερίδος αὐτῶν.

48 καὶ ἐπορεύθησαν οἱ υἱοὶ Δὰν καὶ ἐπολέμησαν τὴν Λαχὶς καὶ κατελάβοντο αὐτὴν καὶ ἐπάταξαν αὐτὴν ἐν στόματι μαχαίρας καὶ κατῴκησαν αὐτὴν καὶ ἐκάλεσαν τὸ ὄνομα αὐτῆς Λασενδὰκ καὶ ὁ ᾿Αμορραῖος ὑπέμεινε τοῦ κατοικεῖν ἐν ᾿Ελὼμ καὶ ἐν Σαλαμίν· καὶ ἐβαρύνθη ἡ χεὶρ τοῦ ᾿Εφραὶμ ἐπ' αὐτούς, καὶ ἐγένοντο αὐτοῖς εἰς φόρον.

51 αὗται αἱ διαιρέσεις ἃς κατεκληρονόμησεν ᾿Ελεάζαρ ὁ ἱερεὺς καὶ ᾿Ιησοῦς ὁ τοῦ Ναυὴ καὶ οἱ ἄρχοντες τῶν πατριῶν ἐν ταῖς φυλαῖς ᾿Ισραὴλ κατὰ κλήρους ἐν Σηλώ, ἔναντι Κυρίου, παρὰ τὰς θύρας τῆς σκηνῆς τοῦ μαρτυρίου· καὶ ἐπορεύθησαν ἐμβατεῦσαι τὴν γῆν.

ΚΑΙ ἐλάλησε Κύριος τῷ ᾿Ιησοῖ λέγων·

2 λάλησον τοῖς υἱοῖς ᾿Ισραὴλ λέγων· δότε τὰς πόλεις τῶν φυγαδευτηρίων, ἃς εἶπα πρὸς ὑμᾶς διὰ Μωυσῆ.

3 φυγαδευτήριον τῷ φονευτῇ τῷ πατάξαντι ψυχὴν ἀκουσίως, καὶ ἔσονται ὑμῖν αἱ πόλεις φυγαδευτήριον, καὶ οὐκ ἀποθανεῖται ὁ φονευτὴς ὑπό τοῦ ἀγχιστεύοντος τὸ αἷμα, ἕως ἂν καταστῇ ἐναντίον τῆς συναγωγῆς εἰς κρίσιν.

4 Καὶ φεύξεται εἰς μίαν τῶν πόλεων τούτων καὶ στήσεται ἐπὶ τὴν θύραν τῆς πόλεως καὶ λαλήσει ἐν τοῖς ὠσὶ τῶν πρεσβυτέρων τῆς πόλεως ἐκείνης τοὺς λόγους τούτους καὶ ἐπιστρέψουσιν αὐτὸν ἡ συναγωγὴ πρὸς αὐτοὺς καὶ δώσουσιν αὐτῷ τόπον καὶ κατοικήσει μετ' αὐτῶν

5 καὶ ὅτι διώξεται ὁ ἀγχιστεύων τὸ αἷμα ὀπίσω αὐτοῦ καὶ οὐ συγκλείσουσι τὸν φονεύσαντα ἐν τῇ χειρὶ αὐτοῦ, ὅτι οὐκ εἰδὼς ἐπάταξε τὸν πλησίον αὐτοῦ καὶ οὐ μισῶν αὐτὸς αὐτὸν ἀπ' ἐχθὲς καὶ τῆς τρίτης

6 καὶ κατοικήσει ἐν τῇ πόλει ἐκείνῃ ἕως στῇ κατὰ πρόσωπον τῆς συναγωγῆς εἰς κρίσιν ἕως ἀποθάνῃ ὁ ἱερεὺς ὁ μέγας, ὃς ἔσται ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις ἐκείναις· τότε ἐπιστρέψει ὁ φονεύσας καὶ ἐλεύσεται εἰς τὴν πόλιν αὐτοῦ καὶ πρὸς τὸν οἶκον αὐτοῦ καὶ πρὸς πόλιν ὅθεν ἔφυγεν ἐκεῖθεν.

7 καὶ διέστειλε τὴν Κάδης ἐν τῇ Γαλιλαίᾳ ἐν τῷ ὄρει τῷ Νεφθαλὶ καὶ Συχὲμ ἐν τῷ ὄρει τῷ ᾿Εφραὶμ καὶ τὴν πόλιν ᾿Αρβὸκ (αὕτη ἐστὶ Χεβρών) ἐν τῷ ὄρει τῷ ᾿Ιούδα.

8 καὶ ἐν τῷ πέραν τοῦ ᾿Ιορδάνου ἔδωκε Βοσὸρ ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ ἐν τῷ πεδίῳ ἀπὸ τῆς φυλῆς Ρουβὴν καὶ ᾿Αρημὼθ ἐν τῇ Γαλαὰδ ἐκ τῆς φυλῆς Γάδ, καὶ τὴν Γαυλὼν ἐν τῇ Βασανίτιδι ἐκ τῆς φυλῆς Μανασσῆ.

 

9 αὗται αἱ πόλεις αἱ ἐπίκλητοι τοῖς υἱοῖς ᾿Ισραὴλ καὶ τῷ προσηλύτῳ τῷ προσκειμένῳ ἐν αὐτοῖς καταφυγεῖν ἐκεῖ παντὶ παίοντι ψυχὴν ἀκουσίως, ἵνα μὴ ἀποθάνῃ ἐν χειρὶ τοῦ ἀγχιστεύοντος τὸ αἷμα, ἕως ἂν καταστῇ ἔναντι τῆς συναγωγῆς εἰς κρίσιν.



 

  

 

 

    

 

    

       

JESUS OF NUN

 

11

And when Jabis the king of Asor heard, he sent to Jobab king of Maron, and to the king of Symoon, and to the king of Aziph,

2 and to the kings who were by the great Sidon, to the hill country and to Araba opposite Keneroth, and to the plain, and to Phenaeddor,

3 and to the Chananites on the coast eastward, and to the Amorites on the coast, and the Chettites, and the Pherezites, and the Jebusites in the mountain, and the Evites, and those dwelling under mount Aermon in the land Massyma.

4 And they and their kings with them went forth, as the sand of the sea in multitude, and horses, and very many chariots.

5 And all the kings assembled in person, and came to the same place, and encamped at the waters of Maron to war with Israel.

6 And the Lord said to Joshua, Be not afraid of them, for to-morrow at this time I will put them to flight before Israel: thou shalt hough their horses, and burn their chariots with fire.

 

7 And Joshua and all the men of war came upon them at the water of Maron suddenly; and they attacked them in the hill country.

8 And the Lord delivered them into the power of Israel; and they smote them and pursued them to great Sidon, and to Maseron, and to the plains of Massoch eastward; and they destroyed them till there was not one of them left that survived.

 

9 And Joshua did to them, as the Lord commanded him: he houghed their horses, and burned their chariots with fire.

 

10 And Joshua returned at that time, and took Asor and her king; now Asor in former time was the chief of these kingdoms.

 

11 And they slew with the sword all that breathed in it, and utterly destroyed them all, and there was no living thing left in it; and they burnt Asor with fire.

12 And Joshua took all the cities of the kingdoms, and their kings, and slew them with the edge of the sword; and utterly slew them, as Moses the servant of the Lord commanded.

 

13 But all the walled cities Israel burnt not; but Israel burnt Asor only.

 

14 And the children of Israel took all its spoils to themselves; and they slew all the men with the edge of the sword, until he destroyed them; they left not one of them breathing.

15 As the Lord commanded his servant Moses, even so Moses commanded Joshua; and so Joshua did, he transgressed no precept of all that Moses commanded him.

16 And Joshua took all the hill country, and all the land of Nageb, and all the land of Gosom, and the plain country, and that toward the west, and the mountain of Israel and the low country by the mountain;

17 from the mountain of Chelcha, and that which goes up to Seir, and as far as Balagad, and the plains of Libanus, under mount Aermon; and he took all their kings, and destroyed, and slew them.

18 And for many days Joshua waged war with these kings.

19 And there was no city which Israel took not; they took all in war.

20 For it was of the Lord to harden their hearts to go forth to war against Israel, that they might be utterly destroyed, that mercy should not be granted to them, but that they should be utterly destroyed, as the Lord said to Moses.

21 And Joshua came at that time, and utterly destroyed the Enakim out of the hill country, from Chebron and from Dabir, and from Anaboth, and from all the race of Israel, and from all the mountain of Juda with their cities; and Joshua utterly destroyed them.

22 There was not any one left of the Enakim by the children of Israel, only there was left of them in Gaza, and in Gath, and in Aseldo.

23 And Joshua took all the land, as the Lord commanded Moses; and Joshua gave them for an inheritance to Israel by division according to their tribes; and the land ceased from war.


12

And these are the kings of the land, whom the children of Israel slew, and inherited their land beyond Jordan from the east, from the valley of Arnon to the mount of Aermon, and all the land of Araba on the east.

2 Seon king of the Amorites, who dwelt in Esebon, ruling from Arnon, which is in the valley, on the side of the valley, and half of Galaad as far as Jaboc, the borders of the children of Ammon.

3 And Araba as far as the sea of Chenereth eastward, and as far as the sea of Araba; the salt sea eastward by the way to Asimoth, from Thaeman under Asedoth Phasga.

 

4 And Og king of Basan, who dwelt in Astaroth and in Edrain, was left of the giants

5 ruling from mount Aermon and from Secchai, and over all the land of Basan to the borders of Gergesi, and Machi, and the half of Galaad of the borders of Seon king of Esebon.

6 Moses the servant of the Lord and the children of Israel smote them; and Moses gave them by way of inheritance to Ruben, and Gad, and to the half tribe of Manasse.

7 And these are the kings of the Amorites, whom Joshua and the children of Israel slew beyond Jordan by the sea of Balagad in the plain of Libanus, and as far as the mountain of Chelcha, as men go up to Seir: and Joshua gave it to the tribes of Israel to inherit according to their portion;

 

8 in the mountain, and in the plain, and in Araba, and in Asedoth, and in the wilderness, and Nageb; the Chettite, and the Amorite, and the Chananite, and the Pherezite, and the Evite, and the Jebusite.

 

9 The king of Jericho, and the king of Gai, which is near Baethel;

10 the king of Jerusalem, the king of Chebron,

11 the king of Jerimuth, the king of Lachis;

12 the king of Ælam, the king of Gazer;

13 the king of Dabir, the king of Gader:

14 the king of Hermath, the king of Ader;

15 the king of Lebna, the king of Odollam,

16 the king of Elath,

17 the king of Taphut, the king of Opher,

18-22 the king of Ophec of Aroc, the king of Asom, the king of Symoon, the king of Mambroth, the king of Aziph, the king of Cades, the king of Zachac, the king of Maredoth, the king of Jecom of Chermel,

23 the king of Odollam belonging to Phennealdor, the king of Gei of Galilee:

24 the king of Thersa: all these were twenty-nine kings.


13

And Joshua was old and very advanced in years; and the Lord said to Joshua, Thou art advanced in years, and there is much land left to inherit.

 

2 And this is the land that is left: the borders of the Phylistines, the Gesirite, and the Chananite,

3 from the wilderness before Egypt, as far as the borders of Accaron on the left of the Chananites the land is reckoned to the five principalities of the Phylistines, to the inhabitant of Gaza, and of Azotus, and of Ascalon, and of Geth, and of Accaron, and to the Evite;

4 from Thaeman even to all the land of Chanaan before Gaza, and the Sidonians as far as Aphec, as far as the borders of the Amorites.

5 And all the land of Galiath of the Phylistines, and all Libanus eastward from Galgal, under the mountain Aermon as far as the entering in of Emath;

6 every one that inhabits the hill country from Libanus as far as Masereth Memphomaim. All the Sidonians, I will destroy them from before Israel; but do thou give them by inheritance to Israel, as I charged thee.

7 And now divide this land by lot to the nine tribes, and to the half tribe of Manasse. From Jordan to the great sea westward thou shalt give it them: the great sea shall be the boundary.

8 But to the two tribes and to the half tribe of Manasse, to Ruben and to Gad Moses gave an inheritance beyond Jordan: Moses the servant of the Lord gave it to them eastward,

 

9 from Aroer, which is on the bank of the brook of Arnon, and the city in the midst of the valley, and all Misor from Maedaban.

10 All the cities of Seon king of the Amorites, who reigned from Esebon to the coasts of the children of Ammon;

11 and the region of Galaad, and the borders of the Gesirites and the Machatites, the whole mount of Aermon, and all the land of Basan to Acha.

12 All the kingdom of Og in the region of Basan, who reigned in Astaroth and in Edrain: he was left of the giants; and Moses smote him, and destroyed him.

 

13 But the children of Israel destroyed not the Gesirite and the Machatite and the Chananite; and the king of the Gesiri and the Machatite dwelt among the children of Israel until this day.

14 Only no inheritance was given to the tribe of Levi: the Lord God of Israel, he is their inheritance, as the Lord said to them; and this is the division which Moses made to the children of Israel in Araboth Moab, on the other side of Jordan, by Jericho.

 

15 And Moses gave the land to the tribe of Ruben according to their families.

16 And their borders were from Aroer, which is opposite the brook of Arnon, and theirs is the city that is in the valley of Arnon; and all Misor to Esebon,

 

17 and all the cities in Misor, and Daebon, and Baemon-Baal, and the house of Meelboth;

18 and Basan, and Bakedmoth, and Maephaad,

19 and Kariathaim, and Sebama, and Serada, and Sion in mount Enab;

20 and Baethphogor, and Asedoth Phasga, and Baetthasinoth,

21 and all the cities of Misor, and all the kingdom of Seon king of the Amorites, whom Moses smote, even him and the princes of Madian, and Evi, and Roboc, and Sur, and Ur, and Robe prince of the spoils of Sion, and the inhabitants of Sion.

 

22 And Balaam the son of Baeor the prophet they slew in the battle.

23 And the borders of Ruben were—even Jordan was the boundary; this is the inheritance of the children of Ruben according to their families, these were their cities and their villages.

24 And Moses gave inheritance to the sons of Gad according to their families.

25 And their borders were Jazer, all the cities of Galaad, and half the land of the children of Ammon to Araba, which is before Arad.

26 And from Esebon to Araboth by Massepha, and Botanim, and Maan to the borders of Daebon,

 

27 and Enadom, and Othargai, and Baenthanabra, and Soccotha, and Saphan, and the rest of the kingdom of Sean king of Esebon: and Jordan shall be the boundary as far as part of the sea of Chenereth beyond Jordan eastward.

28 This is the inheritance of the children of Gad according to their families and according to their cities:

29 And Moses gave to half the tribe of Manasse according to their families.

30 And their borders were from Maan, and all the kingdom of Basan, and all the kingdom of Og king of Basan, and all the villages of Jair, which are in the region of Basan, sixty cities:

31 and the half of Galaad, and in Astaroth, and in Edrain, royal cities of Og in the land of Basan, Moses gave to the sons of Machir the sons of Manasse, even to the half-tribe sons of Machir the sons of Manasse, according to their families.

32 These are they whom Moses caused to inherit beyond Jordan in Araboth Moab, beyond Jordan by Jericho eastward.


14

And these are they of the children of Israel that received their inheritance in the land of Chanaan, to whom Eleazar the priest, and Joshua the son of Naue, and the heads of the families of the tribes of the children of Israel, gave inheritance.

2 They inherited according to their lots, as the Lord commanded by the hand of Joshua to the nine tribes and the half tribe, on the other side of Jordan.

3 But to the Levites he gave no inheritance among them.

4 For the sons of Joseph were two tribes, Manasse and Ephraim; and there was none inheritance in the land given to the Levites, only cities to dwell in, and their suburbs separated for the cattle, and their cattle.

 

5 As the Lord commanded Moses, so did the children of Israel; and they divided the land.

6 And the children of Juda came to Joshua in Galgal, and Chaleb the son of Jephone the Kenezite said to him, Thou knowest the word that the Lord spoke to Moses the man of God concerning me and thee in Cades Barne.

7 For I was forty years old when Moses the servant of God sent me out of Cades Barne to spy out the land; and I returned him an answer according to his mind.

 

8 My brethren that went up with me turned away the heart of the people, but I applied my self to follow the Lord my God.

9 And Moses sware on that day, saying, The land on which thou art gone up, it shall be thy inheritance and thy children’s for ever, because thou hast applied thyself to follow the Lord our God.

10 And now the Lord has kept me alive as he said: this is the forty-fifth year since the Lord spoke that word to Moses; and Israel journeyed in the wilderness; and now, behold, I am this day eighty-five years old.

 

11 I am still strong this day, as when the Lord sent me: just so strong am I now to go out and to come in for war.

12 And now I ask of thee this mountain, as the Lord said in that day; for thou heardest this word on that day; and now the Enakim are there, cities great and strong: if then the Lord should be with me, I will utterly destroy them, as the Lord said to me.

 

13 And Joshua blessed him, and gave Chebron to Chaleb the son of Jephone the son of Kenez for an inheritance.

14 Therefore Chebron became the inheritance of Chaleb the son of Jephone the Kenezite until this day, because he followed the commandment of the Lord God of Israel.

15 And the name of Chebron before was the city Argob, it is the metropolis of the Enakim: and the land rested from war.


15

And the borders of the tribe of Juda according to their families were from the borders of Idumea from the wilderness of sin, as far as Cades southward.

2 And their borders were from the south as far as a part of the salt sea from the high country that extends southward.

3 And they proceed before the ascent of Acrabin, and go out round Sena, and go up from the south to Cades Barne; and go out to Asoron, and proceed up to Sarada, and go out by the way that is west of Cades.

 

4 And they go out to Selmona, and issue at the valley of Egypt; and the termination of its boundaries shall be at the sea: these are their boundaries southward.

 

5 And their boundaries eastward are all the salt sea as far as Jordan; and their borders from the north, and from the border of the sea, and from part of Jordan;

 

6 the borders go up to Baethaglaam, and they go along from the north to Baetharaba, and the borders go on up to the stone of Baeon the son of Ruben.

 

7 And the borders continue on to the fourth part of the valley of Achor, and go down to Galgal, which is before the approach of Adammin, which is southward in the valley, and terminate at the water of the fountain of the sun; and their going forth shall be the fountain of Rogel.

8 And the borders go up to the valley of Ennom, behind Jebus southward; this is Jerusalem: and the borders terminate at the top of the mountain, which is before the valley of Ennom toward the sea, which is by the side of the land of Raphain northward.

9 And the border going forth from the top of the mountain terminates at the fountain of the water of Naphtho, and terminates at mount Ephron; and the border will lead to Baal; this is the city of Jarim.

10 And the border will go round from Baal to the sea, and will go on to the mount of Assar behind the city of Jarin northwards; this is Chaslon: and it will come down to the city of Sun, and will go on to the south.

 

11 And the border terminates behind Accaron northward, and the borders will terminate at Socchoth, and the borders will go on to the south, and will terminate at Lebna, and the issue of the borders will be at the sea; and their borders shall be toward the sea, the great sea shall be the boundary.

12 These are the borders of the children of Juda round about according to their families.

13 And to Chaleb the son of Jephone he gave a portion in the midst of the children of Juda by the command of God; and Joshua gave him the city of Arboc the metropolis of Enac; this is Chebron.

14 And Chaleb the son of Jephone destroyed thence the three sons of Enac, Susi, and Tholami, and Achima.

15 And Chaleb went up thence to the inhabitants of Dabir; and the name of Dabir before was the city of Letters.
16 And Chaleb said, Whosoever shall take and destroy the city of Letters, and master it, to him will I give my daughter Ascha to wife.

17 And Gothoniel the son of Chenez the brother of Chaleb took it; and he gave him Ascha his daughter to wife.

18 And it came to pass as she went out that she counselled him, saying, I will ask of my father a field; and she cried from off her ass; and Chaleb said to her, What is it?

19 And she said to him, Give me a blessing, for thou hast set me in the land of Nageb; give me Botthanis: and he gave her Gonaethla the upper, and Gonaethla the lower.

20 This is the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Juda.

21 And their cities were cities belonging to the tribe of the children of Juda on the borders of Edom by the wilderness,

22 and Baeseleel, and Ara, and Asor, and Icam, and Regma, and Aruel,

23 and Cades, and Asorionain, and Maenam,

24 and Balmaenan, and their villages,

25 and the cities of Aseron, this is Asor,

26 and Sen, and Salmaa, and Molada,

27 and Seri, and Baephalath,

28 and Cholaseola, and Beersabee; and their villages, and their hamlets,

29 Bala and Bacoc, and Asom,

30 and Elboudad, and Baethel, and Herma,

31 and Sekelac, and Macharim, and Sethennac,

32 and Labos, and Sale, and Eromoth; twenty-nine cities, and their villages.

33 In the plain country Astaol, and Raa, and Assa,

34 and Ramen, and Tano, and Iluthoth, and Maeani,

35 and Jermuth, and Odollam, and Membra, and Saocho, and Jazeca.

36 And Sacarim and Gadera, and its villages; fourteen cities, and their villages;

37 Senna, and Adasan, and Magadalgad,

38 and Dalad, and Maspha, and Jachareel,

39 and Basedoth, and Ideadalea;

40 and Chabra, and Maches, and Maachos,

41 and Geddor, and Bagadiel, and Noman, and Machedan: sixteen cities, and their villages;

42 Lebna, and Ithac, and Anoch,

43 and Jana, and Nasib,

44 and Keilam, and Akiezi, and Kezib, and Bathesar, and Ælom: ten cities, and their villages;

45 Accaron and her villages, and their hamlets:

 

46 from Accaron, Gemna, and all the cities that are near Asedoth; and their villages.

47 Asiedoth, and her villages, and her hamlets; Gaza, and its villages and its hamlets as far as the river of Egypt, and the great sea is the boundary.

 

48 And in the hill country Samir, and Jether, and Socha,

49 and Renna and the city of Letters, this is Dabir;

50 and Anon, and Es, and Man, and Æsam,

51 and Gosom, and Chalu, and Channa, and Gelom: eleven cities, and their villages;

52 Ærem, and Remna, and Soma,

53 and Jemain, and Baethachu, and Phacua,

54 and Euma, and the city Arboc, this is Chebron, and Soraith: nine cities and their villages:

55 Maor, and Chermel, and Ozib, and Itan,

56 and Jariel, and Aricam, and Zacanaim,

57 and Gabaa, and Thamnatha; nine cities, and their villages;

58 Ælua, and Bethsur, and Geddon,

59 and Magaroth, and Baethanam, and Thecum; six cities, and their villages; Theco, and Ephratha, this is Baethleem, and Phagor, and Ætan, and Culon, and Tatam, and Thobes, and Carem, and Galem, and Thether, and Manocho: eleven cities, and their villages,

60 Cariathbaal, this is the city of Jarim, and Sotheba: two cities, and their villages:

61 and Baddargeis, and Tharabaam, and Ænon;

62 and Æochioza, and Naphlazon, and the cities of Sadon, and Ancades; seven cities, and their villages.

 

63 And the Jebusite dwelt in Jerusalem, and the children of Juda could not destroy them; and the Jebusites dwelt in Jerusalem to this day.

 

 
16

And the borders of the children of Joseph were from Jordan by Jericho eastward; and they will go up from Jericho to the hill country, to the wilderness, to Baethel Luza.

2 And they will go out to Baethel, and will proceed to the borders of Achatarothi.

3 And they will go across to the sea to the borders of Aptalim, as far as the borders of Baethoron the lower, and the going forth of them shall be to the sea.

4 And the sons of Joseph, Ephraim and Manasse, took their inheritance.

5 And the borders of the children of Ephraim were according to their families, and the borders of their inheritance were eastward to Ataroth, and Eroc as far as Baethoron the upper, and Gazara.

6 And the borders will proceed to the sea to Icasmon north of Therma; they will go round eastward to Thenasa, and Selles, and will pass on eastward to Janoca,

7 and to Macho, and Ataroth, and these are their villages; and they will come to Jericho, and will issue at Jordan.

8 And the borders will proceed from Tapho to the sea to Chelcana; and their termination will be at the sea; this is the inheritance of the tribe of Ephraim according to their families.

9 And the cities separated to the sons of Ephraim were in the midst of the inheritance of the sons of Manasse, all the cities and their villages.

10 And Ephraim did not destroy the Chananite who dwelt in Gazer; and the Chananite dwelt in Ephraim until this day, until Pharao the king of Egypt went up and took it, and burnt it with fire; and the Chananites, and Pherezites, and the dwellers in Gaza they destroyed, and Pharao gave them for a dowry to his daughter.

 

 
17

And the borders of the tribe of the children of Manasse, (for he was the first-born of Joseph,) assigned to Machir the first-born of Manasse the father of Galaad, for he was a warrior, were in the land of Galaad and of Basan.

2 And there was land assigned to the other sons of Manasse according to their families; to the sons of Jezi, and to the sons of Kelez, and to the sons of Jeziel, and to the sons of Sychem, and to the sons of Symarim, and to the sons of Opher: these are the males according to their families.

3 And Salpaad the sons of Opher had no sons but daughters: and these are the names of the daughters of Salpaad; Maala, and Nua, and Egla, and Melcha, and Thersa.

4 And they stood before Eleazar the priest, and before Joshua, and before the rulers, saying, God gave a charge by the hand of Moses, to give us an inheritance in the midst of our brethren: so there was given to them by the command of the Lord an inheritance among the brethren of their father.

5 And their lot fell to them from Anassa, and to the plain of Labec of the land of Galaad, which is beyond Jordan.

6 For the daughters of the sons of Manasse inherited a portion in the midst of their brethren, and the land of Galaad was assigned to the remainder of the sons of Manasse.

7 And the borders of the sons of Manasse were Delanath, which is before the sons of Anath, and it proceeds to the borders even to Jamin and Jassib to the fountain of Thaphthoth.

8 It shall belong to Manasse, and Thapheth on the borders of Manasse shall belong to the sons of Ephraim.

9 And the borders shall go down to the valley of Carana southward by the valley of Jariel, (there is a turpentine tree belonging to Ephraim between that and the city of Manasse:) and the borders of Manasse are northward to the brook; and the sea shall be its termination.

10 Southward the land belongs to Ephraim, and northward to Manasse; and the sea shall be their cost; and northward they shall border upon Aseb, and eastward upon Issachar.

11 And Manasses shall have in the portion of Issachar and Aser Baethsan and their villages, and the inhabitants of Dor, and its villages, and the inhabitants of Mageddo, and its villages, and the third part of Mapheta, and its villages.

12 And the sons of Manasse were not able to destroy these cities; and the Chananite began to dwell in that land.

13 And it came to pass that when the children of Israel were strong, they made the Chananites subject, but they did not utterly destroy them.

14 And the sons of Joseph answered Joshua, saying, Wherefore hast thou caused us to inherit one inheritance, and one line? whereas I am a great people, and God has blessed me.

15 And Joshua said to them, If thou be a great people, go up to the forest, and clear the land for thyself, If mount Ephraim be too little for thee.

16 And they said, The mount of Ephraim does not please us, and the Chananite dwelling in it in Baethsan, and in its villages, and in the valley of Jezrael, has choice cavalry and iron.

17 And Joshua said to the sons of Joseph, If thou art a great people, and hast great strength, thou shalt not have only one inheritance.

18 For thou shalt have the wood, for there is a wood, and thou shalt clear it, and the land shall be thine; even when thou shalt have utterly destroyed the Chananite, for he has chosen cavalry; yet thou art stronger than he.

And all the congregation of the children of Israel were assembled at Selo, and there they pitched the tabernacle of witness; and the land was subdued by them.

2 And the sons of Israel remained, even those who had not received their inheritance, seven tribes.

3 And Joshua said to the sons of Israel, How long will ye be slack to inherit the land, which the Lord our God has given you?

4 Appoint of yourselves three men of each tribe, and let them rise up and go through the land, and let them describe it before me, as it will be proper to divide it.

 

5 And they came to him: and he divided to them seven portions, saying, Juda shall stand to them a border southward, and the sons of Joseph shall stand to them northward.

6 And do ye divide the land into seven parts, and bring the description hither to me, and I will give you a lot before the Lord our God.

7 For the sons of Levi have no part among you; for the priesthood of the Lord is his portion; and Gad, and Ruben, and the half tribe of Manasse, have received their inheritance beyond Jordan eastward, which Moses the servant of the Lord gave to them.

 

8 And the men rose up and went; and Joshua charged the men who went to explore the land, saying, Go and explore the land, and come to me, and I will bring you forth a lot here before the Lord in Selo.

 

 

9 And they went, and explored the land: and they viewed it, and described it according to the cities, seven parts in a book, and brought the book to Joshua.

 

10 And Joshua cast the lot for them in Selo before the Lord.

11 And the lot of the tribe of Benjamin came forth first according to their families: and the borders of their lot came forth between the children of Juda and the children of Joseph.

12 And their borders were northward: the borders shall go up from Jordan behind Jericho northward, and shall go up to the mountain westward, and the issue of it shall be Baethon of Mabdara.

 

13 And the borders will go forth thence to Luz, behind Luz, from the south of it; this is Baethel: and the borders shall go down to Maatarob Orech, to the hill country, which is southward of Baethoron the lower.

14 And the borders shall pass through and proceed to the part that looks toward the sea, on the south, from the mountain in front of Baethoron southward, and its termination shall be at Cariath-Baal, this is Cariath-Jarin, a city of the children of Juda; this is the part toward the west.

15 And the south side on the part of Cariath-Baal; and the borders shall go across to Gasin, to the fountain of the water of Naphtho.

18 and shall pass over behind Baetharaba northward, and shall go down to the borders behind the sea northward.

19 And the termination of the borders shall be at the creek of the salt sea northward to the side of Jordan southward: these are their southern borders.

 

20 And Jordan shall be their boundary on the east: this is the inheritance of the children of Benjamin, these are their borders round about according to their families.

21 And the cities of the children of Benjamin according to their families were Jericho, and Bethagaeo, and the Amecasis,

22 and Baethabara, and Sara, and Besana,

23 and Æein, and Phara, and Ephratha,

24 and Carapha, and Cephira, and Moni, and Gabaa, twelve cities and their villages:

48 And the sons of Dan went and fought against Lachis, and took it, and smote it with the edge of the sword; and they dwelt in it, and called the name of it Lasendan: and the Amorite continued to dwell in Edom and in Salamin: and the hand of Ephraim prevailed against them, and they became tribute to them.

And the Lord spoke to Joshua, saying,

2 Speak to the children of Israel, saying, Assign the cities of refuge, of which I spoke to you by Moses.

 

3 Even a refuge to the slayer who has smitten a man unintentionally; and the cities shall be to you a refuge, and the slayer shall not be put to death by the avenger of blood, until he have stood before the congregation for judgment.

4 And he shall flee unto one of those cities, and shall stand in the gate of the city, and speak in the ears of the elders of the city, about his words: and the congregation shall return him unto them, and shall appoint him a place; and he shall dwell among them.

 

5 And when he that acteth as next of kin for blood pursueth after him, then they shall not deliver the slayer into his hand; because he slew his neighbour unawares, and hated him not, even from yesterday and three days ago.

6 And he shall dwell in that city, until he stand before the face of the congregation for judgment, or until the death of the high priest, that shall be in those days: then shall the slayer return, and come unto his own city, and unto his own house, from whence he fled.

 

7 And Joshua separated Cades in Galilee in the mount Nephthali, and Sychem in the mount Ephraim, and the city of Arboc; this is Chebron, in the mountain of Juda.

8 And beyond Jordan he appointed Bosor in the wilderness in the plain out of the tribe of Ruben, and Aremoth in Galaad out of the tribe of Gad, and Gaulon in the country of Basan out of the tribe of Manasse.

9 These were the cities selected for the sons of Israel, and for the stranger abiding among them, that every one who smites a soul unintentionally should flee thither, that he should not die by the hand of the avenger of blood, until he should stand before the congregation for judgment.
