1The second lot belonged to the tribe of Simeon by its clans.

1וַיֵּצֵ֞א הַגּוֹרָ֤ל הַשֵּׁנִי֙ לְשִׁמְע֔וֹן לְמַטֵּ֥ה בְנֵֽי־ שִׁמְע֖וֹן לְמִשְׁפְּחוֹתָ֑ם וַֽיְהִי֙ נַֽחֲלָתָ֔ם בְּת֖וֹךְ נַחֲלַ֥ת בְּנֵֽי־ יְהוּדָֽה׃

2Their assigned land included Beer Sheba, Moladah,

2וַיְהִ֥י לָהֶ֖ם בְּנַֽחֲלָתָ֑ם בְּאֵֽר־ שֶׁ֥בַע וְשֶׁ֖בַע וּמוֹלָדָֽה׃

7Ain, Rimmon, Ether, and Ashan--a total of four cities and their towns,

9Simeon's assigned land was taken from Judah's allotted portion, for Judah's territory was too large for them; so Simeon was assigned land within Judah.

9מֵחֶ֙בֶל֙ בְּנֵ֣י יְהוּדָ֔ה נַחֲלַ֖ת בְּנֵ֣י שִׁמְע֑וֹן כִּֽי־ הָיָ֞ה חֵ֤לֶק בְּנֵֽי־ יְהוּדָה֙ רַ֣ב מֵהֶ֔ם וַיִּנְחֲל֥וּ בְנֵֽי־ שִׁמְע֖וֹן בְּת֥וֹךְ נַחֲלָתָֽם׃ פ

17The fourth lot belonged to the tribe of Issachar by its clans.

29It then turned toward Ramah as far as the fortified city of Tyre, turned to Hosah, and ended at the sea near Hebel, Aczib,

29וְשָׁ֤ב הַגְּבוּל֙ הָֽרָמָ֔ה וְעַד־ עִ֖יר מִבְצַר־ צֹ֑ר וְשָׁ֤ב הַגְּבוּל֙ חֹסָ֔ה [ויהיו] (וְהָי֧וּ) תֹצְאֹתָ֛יו הַיָּ֖מָּה מֵחֶ֥בֶל אַכְזִֽיבָה׃

47(The Danites failed to conquer their territory, so they went up and fought with Leshem and captured it. They put the sword to it, took possession of it, and lived in it. They renamed it Dan after their ancestor.)

49When they finished dividing the land into its regions, the Israelites gave Joshua son of Nun some land.

49וַיְכַלּ֥וּ לִנְחֹל־ אֶת־ הָאָ֖רֶץ לִגְבֽוּלֹתֶ֑יהָ וַיִּתְּנ֨וּ בְנֵי־ יִשְׂרָאֵ֧ל נַחֲלָ֛ה לִיהוֹשֻׁ֥עַ בִּן־ נ֖וּן בְּתוֹכָֽם׃

50As the LORD had instructed, they gave him the city he requested--Timnath Serah in the Ephraimite hill country. He built up the city and lived in it.

50עַל־ פִּ֨י יְהוָ֜ה נָ֣תְנוּ ל֗וֹ אֶת־ הָעִיר֙ אֲשֶׁ֣ר שָׁאָ֔ל אֶת־ תִּמְנַת־ סֶ֖רַח בְּהַ֣ר אֶפְרָ֑יִם וַיִּבְנֶ֥ה אֶת־ הָעִ֖יר וַיֵּ֥שֶׁב בָּֽהּ׃

51These are the land assignments which Eleazar the priest, Joshua son of Nun, and the Israelite tribal leaders made by drawing lots in Shiloh before the LORD at the entrance of the tent of meeting. So they finished dividing up the land.

51אֵ֣לֶּה הַנְּחָלֹ֡ת אֲשֶׁ֣ר נִחֲל֣וּ אֶלְעָזָ֣ר הַכֹּהֵ֣ן ׀ וִיהוֹשֻׁ֪עַ בִּן־ נ֟וּן וְרָאשֵׁ֣י הָֽאָב֣וֹת לְמַטּוֹת֩ בְּנֵי־ יִשְׂרָאֵ֨ל ׀ בְּגוֹרָ֤ל ׀ בְּשִׁלֹה֙ לִפְנֵ֣י יְהוָ֔ה פֶּ֖תַח אֹ֣הֶל מוֹעֵ֑ד וַיְכַלּ֕וּ מֵֽחַלֵּ֖ק אֶת־ הָאָֽרֶץ׃ פ
