¹ And the Lord spoke to Moses to the west of Moab by Jordan near Jericho, saying, ² Give orders to the children of Israel, and they shall give to the Levites cities to dwell in from the lot of their possession, and they shall give to the Levites the suburbs of the cities round about them. ³ And the cities shall be for them to dwell in, and their enclosures shall be for their cattle and all their beasts. ⁴ And the suburbs of the cities which ye shall give to the Levites, shall be from the wall of the city and outwards two thousand cubits round about. ⁵ And thou shalt measure outside the city on the east side two thousand cubits, and on the south side two thousand cubits, and on the west side two thousand cubits, and on the north side two thousand cubits; and your city shall be in the midst of this, and the suburbs of the cities as described. ⁶ And ye shall give the cities to the Levites, the six cities of refuge which ye shall give for the slayer to flee thither, and in addition to these, forty-two cities. ⁷ Ye shall give to the Levites in all forty-eight cities, them and their suburbs. ⁸ And as for the cities which ye shall give out of the possession of the children of Israel, from those that have much ye shall give much, and from those that have less ye shall give less: they shall give of their cities to the Levites each one according to his inheritance which they shall inherit. ⁹ And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,

¹ And the heads of the families of the sons of Levi drew near to Eleazar the priest, and to Joshua the son of Naue, and to the heads of families of the tribes of Israel. ² And they spoke to them in Selo in the land of Chanaan, saying, The Lord gave commandment by Moses to give us cities to dwell in, and the country round about for our cattle. ³ So the children of Israel gave to the Levites in their inheritance by the command of the Lord the cities and the country round. ⁴ And the lot came out for the children of Caath; and the sons of Aaron, the priests the Levites, had by lot thirteen cities out of the tribe of Juda, and out of the tribe of Symeon, and out of the tribe of Benjamin. ⁵ And to the sons of Caath that were left were given by lot ten cities, out of the tribe of Ephraim, and out of the tribe of Dan, and out of the half tribe of Manasse. ⁶ And the sons of Gedson had thirteen cities, out of the tribe of Issachar, and out of the tribe of Aser, and out of the tribe of Nephthali, and out of the half tribe of Manasse in Basan. ⁷ And the sons of Merari according to their families had by lot twelve cities, out of the tribe of Ruben, and out of the tribe of Gad, and out of the tribe of Zabulon. ⁸ And the children of Israel gave to the Levites the cities and their suburbs, as the Lord commanded Moses, by lot. ⁹ And the tribe of the children of Juda, and the tribe of the children of Symeon, and part of the tribe of the children of Benjamin gave these cities, and they were assigned ¹⁰ to the sons of Aaron of the family of Caath of the sons of Levi, for the lot fell to these. ¹¹ And they gave to them Cariatharboc the metropolis of the sons of Enac; this is Chebron in the mountain country of Juda, and the suburbs round it. ¹² But the lands of the city, and its villages Joshua gave to the sons of Chaleb the son of Jephonne for a possession. ¹³ And to the sons of Aaron he gave the city of refuge for the slayer, Chebron, and the suburbs belonging to it; and Lemna and the suburbs belonging to it; ¹⁴ and Aelom and its suburbs; and Tema and its suburbs; ¹⁵ and Gella and its suburbs; and Dabir and its suburbs; ¹⁶ and Asa and its suburbs; and Tany and its suburbs;

four cities. ¹⁹ All the cities of the sons of Aaron the priests, thirteen. ²⁰ And to the families, even the sons of Caath the Levites, that were left of the sons of Caath, there was given their priests' city, ²¹ out of the tribe of Ephraim; and they gave them the slayer's city of refuge, Sychem, and its suburbs, and Gazara and its appendages, and its suburbs; ²² and Baethoron and its suburbs: four cities: ²³ and the tribe of Dan, Helcothaim and its suburbs; and Gethedan and its suburbs: ²⁴ and Aelon and its suburbs; and Getheremmon and its suburbs: four cities. ²⁵ And out of the half tribe of Manasse, Tanach and its suburbs; and Jebatha and its suburbs; two cities. ²⁶ In all were given ten cities, and the suburbs of each belonging to them, to the families of the sons of Caath that remained. ²⁷ And Joshua gave to the sons of Gedson the Levites out of the other half tribe of Manasse cities set apart for the slayers, Gaulon in the country of Basan, and its suburbs;

and Cades and its suburbs, ³⁵ and Sella and its suburbs: three cities. ³⁶ And beyond Jordan over against Jericho, out of the tribe of Ruben, the city of refuge for the slayer, Bosor in the wilderness; Miso and its suburbs; ^{37 (21:36A)} and Jazer and its suburbs; and Decmon and its suburbs; and Mapha and its suburbs; four cities. ^{38 (21:37)} And out of the tribe of Gad the city of refuge for the slayer, both Ramoth in Galaad, and its suburbs; Camin and its suburbs; ^{39 (21:37A)} and Esbon and its suburbs; and Jazer and its suburbs: the cities were four in all. ^{40 (21:38)} All these cities were given to the sons of Merari according to the families of them that were left out of the tribe of Levi; and their limits were the twelve cities. ^{41 (21:39)} All the cities of the Levites in the midst of the possession of the children of Israel, were forty-eight cities, ^(21:40) and their suburbs round about these cities: ^{42 (21:40A)} a city and the suburbs round about the city to all these cities: ^(21:40B) and Joshua ceased dividing the land by their borders: ^(21:40C) and the children of Israel gave a portion to Joshua because of the commandment of the Lord: they gave him the city which he asked: they gave him Thamnasachar in mount Ephraim; ^(21:40D) and Joshua built the city, and dwelt in it: ^(21:40E) and Joshua took the knives of stone, wherewith he circumcised the children of Israel that were born in the desert by the way, and put them in Thamnasachar. ^{43 (21:41)} So the Lord gave to Israel all the land which he sware to give to their fathers: and they inherited it, and dwelt in it. ^{44 (21:42)} And the Lord gave them rest round about, as he sware to their fathers: not one of all their enemies maintained his ground against them; the Lord delivered all their enemies into their hands. ^{45 (21:43)} There failed not one of the good things which the Lord spoke to the children of Israel; all came to pass.

²⁸ And it shall be to them for an inheritance: I am their inheritance: and no possession shall be given them among the children of Israel; for I am their possession.

⁴ Of the land shall be a portion for the priests that minister in the holy place, and it shall be for them that draw nigh to minister to the Lord: and it shall be to them a place for houses set apart for their sacred office;

⁴⁶ And the chamber that looks to the north is for the priests that keep the charge of the altar: they are the sons of Sadduc, those of the tribe of Levi who draw near to the Lord to serve him.

¹⁹ And thou shalt appoint to the priests the Levites of the seed of Sadduc, that draw nigh to me, saith the Lord God, to minister to me, a calf of the heard for a sin-offering.

¹⁰ But as for the Levites who departed far from me when Israel went astray from me after their imaginations, they shall even bear their iniquity.

¹⁵ The priests the Levites, the sons of Sadduc, who kept the charges of my sanctuary when the house of Israel when astray from me, these shall draw night to me to minister to me, and shall stand before my face, to offer sacrifice to me, the fat and the blood, saith the Lord God. ¹⁶ These shall enter into my sanctuary, and these shall approach my table, to minister to me, and they shall keep my charges.

²¹ But the field shall be holy to the Lord after the release, as separated land; the priest shall have possession of it.

¹⁹ Take heed to thyself that thou do not desert the Levite all the time that thou livest upon the earth.

³ And out of this measurement shalt thou measure the length five and twenty thousand, and the breadth twenty thousand: and in it shall be the holy of holies.

⁵ the length shall be twenty-five thousand, and the breadth twenty thousand: and the Levites that attend the house, they shall have cities to dwell in for a possession.

²⁹ Thou shalt not keep back the first-fruits of thy threshing floor and press. The first-born of thy sons thou shalt give to me.

²⁰ And the priest shall place them with the loaves of the first-fruits an offering before the Lord with the two lambs, they shall be holy to the Lord; they shall belong to the priest that brings them.

³⁴ And the lands set apart for their cities shall not be sold, because this is their perpetual possession.

⁹ And if it be from the cattle that are offered as a gift to the Lord, whoever shall offer one of these to the Lord, it shall be holy. ¹⁰ He shall not change it, a good for a bad, or a bad for a good; and if he do at all change it, a beast for a beast, it and the substitute shall be holy.

²⁸ And every dedicated thing which a man shall dedicate to the Lord of all that he has, whether man or beast, or of the field of his possession, he shall not sell it, nor redeem it: every devoted thing shall be most holy to the Lord.

³² And every tithe of oxen, and of sheep, and whatsoever may come in numbering under the rod, the tenth shall be holy to the Lord. ³³ Thou shalt not change a good for a bad, or a bad for a good; and if thou shouldest at all change it, its equivalent also shall be holy, it shall not be redeemed.

¹² And the first-fruits shall be given to them out of the first-fruits of the land, even a most holy portion from the borders of the Levites.

⁸ Will a man insult God? for ye insult me. But ye say, Wherein have we insulted thee? In that the tithes and first-fruits are with you still. ⁹ And ye do surely look off from me, and ye insult me. ¹⁰ The year is completed, and ye have brought all the produce into the storehouses; but there shall be the plunder thereof in its house: return now on this behalf, saith the Lord Almighty, see if I will not open to you the torrents of heaven, and pour out my blessing upon you, until ye are satisfied.

²⁶ Her priests also have set at nought my law, and profaned my holy things: they have not distinguished between the holy and profane, nor have they distinguished between the unclean and the clean, and have his their eyes from my sabbaths, and I was profaned in the midst of them.

²⁰ The four sides he measured by the same reed, and he marked out the house and the circumference of the parts round about, a space of five hundred cubits eastward, and a breadth of five hundred cubits, to make a division between the sanctuary and the outer wall, that belonged to the design of the house.

²³ And they shall teach my people to distinguish between holy and profane, and they shall make known to them the difference between unclean and clean.

⁶ And ye shall appoint for the possession of the city five thousand in breadth, and in length twenty-five thousand: after the manner of the first-fruits of the holy portion, they shall be for all the house of Israel.

²⁷ And Joshua made them in that day hewers of wood and drawers of water to the whole congregation, and for the altar of God: therefore the inhabitants of Gabaon became hewers of wood and drawers of water for the altar of God until this day, even for the place which the Lord should choose.

⁵ Symeon and Levi, brethren, accomplished the injustice of their cutting off. ⁶ Let not my soul come into their counsel, and let not mine inward parts contend in their conspiracy, for in their wrath they slew men, and in their passion they houghed a bull. ⁷ Cursed be their wrath, for it was willful, and their anger, for it was cruel: I will divide them in Jacob, and scatter them in Israel.

¹ And the second lot came out for the children of Symeon; and their inheritance was in the midst of the lots of the children of Juda. ² And their lot was Beersabee, and Samaa, and Caladam, ³ and Arsola, and Bola, and Jason, ⁴ and Erthula, and Bula, and Herma, ⁵ and Sikelac, and Baethmachereb, and Sarsusin, ⁶ and Batharoth, and their fields, thirteen cities, and their villages. ⁷ Eremmon, and Thalcha, and Jether, and Asan; four cities and their villages, ⁸ round about their cities as far as Balec as men go to Bameth southward: this is the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Symeon according to their families. ⁹ The inheritance of the tribe of the children of Symeon was a part of the lot of Juda, for the portion of the children of Juda was greater than theirs; and the children of Symeon inherited in the midst of their lot.

¹⁴ And Ruben went in the day of barley-harvest, and found apples of mandrakes in the field, and brought them to his mother Lea; and Rachel said to Lea her sister, Give me of thy son's mandrakes. ¹⁵ And Lea said, Is it not enough for thee that thou hast taken my husband, wilt thou also take my son's mandrakes? And Rachel said, Not so: let him lie with thee to-night for thy son's mandrakes. ¹⁶ And Jacob came in out of the field at even; and Lea went forth to meet him, and said, Thou shalt come in to me this day, for I have hired thee for my son's mandrakes; and he lay with her that night. ¹⁷ And God hearkened to Lea, and she conceived, and bore Jacob a fifth son. ¹⁸ And Lea said, God has given me my reward, because I gave my maid to my husband; and she called his name Issachar, which is, Reward.

¹⁰ And Zelpha the maid of Lea conceived, and bore Jacob a son. ¹¹ And Lea said, It is happily: and she called his name, Gad.

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: according to their families they will turn their backs before their enemies, because their cities and their villages were according to their families.

¹⁸ In that day the Lord made a covenant with Abram, saying, To thy seed I will give this land, from the river of Egypt to the great river Euphrates.

¹ And the children of Israel, even the whole congregation, came into the wilderness of Sin, in the first month, and the people abode in Cades; and Mariam died there, and was buried there.

¹³ This is the water of Strife, because the children of Israel spoke insolently before the Lord, and he was sanctified in them.

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;

² And they came and told Josaphat, saying, There is come against thee a great multitude from Syria, from beyond the sea; and, behold, they are in Asasan Thamar, this is Engadi.

^{32 (105:32)} They provoked him also at the water of Strife, and Moses was hurt for their sakes;

¹² And it shall come to pass in that day that God shall fence men off from the channel of the river as far as Rhinocorura; but do ye gather one by one the children of Israel.

¹⁰ And fishers shall stand there from Ingadin to Enagallim; it shall be a place to spread out nets upon; it shall be distinct; and the fishes thereof shall be as the fishes of the great sea, a very great multitude.

¹⁵ And these are the borders of the land that lies northward, from the great sea that comes down, and divides the entrance of Emaseldam;

¹⁹ And the southern and south-western coasts are from Thaeman and the city of palm-trees, to the water of Marimoth Cadem, reaching forth to the great sea. This part is the south and south-west. ²⁰ This part of the great sea forms a border, till one comes opposite the entrance of Emath, even as far as the entrance thereof. These are the parts west of Emath.

² Charge the children of Israel, and thou shalt say to them, Ye are entering into the land of Chanaan: it shall be to you for an inheritance, the land of Chanaan with its boundaries.

¹³ And Moses charged the children of Israel, saying, This is the land which ye shall inherit by lot, even as the Lord commanded us to give it to the nine tribes and the half-tribe of Manasse.

¹ 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. ⁸ From Jordan to the great sea westward thou shalt give it them: the great sea shall be the boundary. 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.

¹³ Thus saith the Lord God; Ye shall inherit these borders of the land; they are given by lot to the twelve tribes of the children of Israel. ¹⁴ And ye shall inherit it, each according to his brother's portion, even the land concerning which I lifted up my hand to give it to your fathers: and this land shall fall to you by lot. ¹⁵ And these are the borders of the land that lies northward, from the great sea that comes down, and divides the entrance of Emaseldam; ¹⁶ Maabthera, Ebrameliam, between the coasts of Damascus and the coasts of Emathi, the habitation of Saunan, which places are above the coasts of Auranitis. ¹⁷ These are the borders from the sea, from the habitations of Aenan, the coasts of Damascus, and the northern coasts. ¹⁸ And the eastern coasts between Loranitis, and Damascus, and the land of Galaad, and the land of Israel, the Jordan divides to the sea that is east of the city of palm-trees. These are the eastern coasts. ¹⁹ And the southern and south-western coasts are from Thaeman and the city of palm-trees, to the water of Marimoth Cadem, reaching forth to the great sea. This part is the south and south-west. ²⁰ This part of the great sea forms a border, till one comes opposite the entrance of Emath, even as far as the entrance thereof. These are the parts west of Emath. ²¹ So ye shall divide this land to them, even to the tribes of Israel. ²² Ye shall cast the lot upon it, for yourselves and the strangers that sojourn in the midst of you, who have begotten children in the midst of you: and they shall be to you as natives among the children of Israel; they shall eat with you in their inheritance in the midst of the tribes of Israel.

¹⁶ And these shall be its dimensions; from the northern side four thousand and five hundred, and from the southern side four thousand and five hundred, and from the eastern side four thousand and five hundred, and from the western side they shall measure four thousand five hundred.

³² And eastward four thousand and five hundred: and three gates; the gate of Joseph, one, and the gate of Benjamin, one, and the gate of Dan, one. ³³ And southward, four thousand and five hundred by measure: and three gates; the gave of Symeon, one, and the gate of Issachar, one, and the gate of Zabulon, one. ³⁴ And westward, four thousand and five hundred by measure: and three gates; the gate of Gad, one, and the gate of Asser, one, and the gate of Nephthalim, one. ³⁵ The circumference, eighteen thousand measures: and the name of the city, from the day that it shall be finished, shall be the name thereof.

¹ In that day they shall sing this song in the land of Judea; Behold a strong city; and he shall make salvation its wall and bulwark. ² Open ye the gates, let the nation enter that keeps righteousness, and keeps truth,

¹² and I will make thy buttresses jasper, and thy gates crystal, and thy border precious stones.

¹¹ And thy gates shall be opened continually; they shall not be shut day nor night; to bring in to thee the power of the Gentiles, and their kings as captives.

¹⁴ And Abraam called the name of that place, The Lord hath seen; that they might say to-day, In the mount the Lord was seen.

²⁶ and said, If thou wilt indeed hear the voice of the Lord thy God, and do things pleasing before him, and wilt hearken to his commands, and keep all his ordinances, no disease which I have brought upon the Egyptians will I bring upon thee, for I am the Lord thy God that heals thee.

¹⁵ And Moses built an altar to the Lord, and called the name of it, The Lord my Refuge.

²⁴ And Gedeon built there an altar to the Lord, and called it The peace of the Lord, until this day, as it is still in Ephratha of the father of Esdri.

^{5 (45:5)} God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved: God shall help her with his countenance.

^{3 (47:3)} God is known in her palaces, when he undertakes to help her.

^{14 (47:14)} For this is our God for ever and ever: he will be our guide for evermore.

^{18 (67:18)} Thou art gone up on high, thou hast led captivity captive, thou hast received gifts for man, yea, for they were rebellious, that thou mightest dwell among them.

^{13 (76:13)} O God, thy way is in the sanctuary; who is a great God as our God?

^{14 (131:14)} This is my rest for ever: here will I dwell; for I have chosen it.

³² And what shall the kings of the nations answer? That the Lord has founded Sion, and by him the poor of the people shall be saved.

²³ And the brick shall decay, and the wall shall fall; for the Lord shall reign from out of Sion, and out of Jerusalem, and shall be glorified before his elders.

¹⁷ In those days and at that time they shall call Jerusalem the throne of the Lord; and all the nations shall be gathered to it: and they shall not walk any more after the imaginations of their evil heart.

⁹ Wilt thou be as a man asleep, or as a strong man that cannot save? yet thou art among us, O Lord, and thy name is called upon us; forget us not.

⁶ In his days both Juda shall be saved, and Israel shall dwell securely: and this is his name, which the Lord shall call him, Josedec among the prophets.

¹⁶ (OMITTED TEXT)

¹⁰ Because thou saidst, The two nations and the two countries shall be mine, and I shall inherit them; whereas the Lord is there:

²¹ And I will make inquisition for their blood, and will by no means leave it unavenged: and the Lord shall dwell in Sion.

¹⁰ Rejoice and be glad, O daughter of Sion: for, behold, I come, and will dwell in the midst of thee, saith the Lord.
