- Josué 18
  
  1 The whole congregation of the children of Israel assembled themselves together at Shiloh, and set up the Tent of Meeting there. The land was subdued before them.
  
  2 Seven tribes remained among the children of Israel, which had not yet divided their inheritance.
  
  3 Joshua said to the children of Israel, "How long will you neglect to go in to possess the land, which Yahweh, the God of your fathers, has given you?
  
  4 Appoint for yourselves three men from each tribe. I will send them, and they shall arise, walk through the land, and describe it according to their inheritance; and they shall come to me.
  
  5 They shall divide it into seven portions. Judah shall live in his borders on the south, and the house of Joseph shall live in their borders on the north.
  
  6 You shall survey the land into seven parts, and bring the description here to me; and I will cast lots for you here before Yahweh our God.
  
  7 For the Levites have no portion among you; for the priesthood of Yahweh is their inheritance. Gad, Reuben, and the half-tribe of Manasseh have received their inheritance beyond the Jordan eastward, which Moses the servant of Yahweh gave them."
  
  8 The men arose and went. Joshua commanded those who went to survey the land, saying, "Go walk through the land, survey it, and come again to me. I will cast lots for you here before Yahweh in Shiloh."
  
  9 The men went and passed through the land, and surveyed it by cities into seven portions in a book. They came to Joshua to the camp at Shiloh.
  
  10 Joshua cast lots for them in Shiloh before Yahweh. There Joshua divided the land to the children of Israel according to their divisions.
  
  11 The lot of the tribe of the children of Benjamin came up according to their families. The border of their lot went out between the children of Judah and the children of Joseph.
  
  12 Their border on the north quarter was from the Jordan. The border went up to the side of Jericho on the north, and went up through the hill country westward. It ended at the wilderness of Beth Aven.
  
  13 The border passed along from there to Luz, to the side of Luz (the same is Bethel), southward. The border went down to Ataroth Addar, by the mountain that lies on the south of Beth Horon the lower.
  
  14 The border extended, and turned around on the west quarter southward, from the mountain that lies before Beth Horon southward; and ended at Kiriath Baal (the same is Kiriath Jearim), a city of the children of Judah. This was the west quarter.
  
  15 The south quarter was from the farthest part of Kiriath Jearim. The border went out westward, and went out to the spring of the waters of Nephtoah.
  
  16 The border went down to the farthest part of the mountain that lies before the valley of the son of Hinnom, which is in the valley of Rephaim northward. It went down to the valley of Hinnom, to the side of the Jebusite southward, and went down to En Rogel.
  
  17 It extended northward, went out at En Shemesh, and went out to Geliloth, which is over against the ascent of Adummim. It went down to the stone of Bohan the son of Reuben.
  
  18 It passed along to the side over against the Arabah northward, and went down to the Arabah.
  
  19 The border passed along to the side of Beth Hoglah northward; and the border ended at the north bay of the Salt Sea, at the south end of the Jordan. This was the south border.
  
  20 The Jordan was its border on the east quarter. This was the inheritance of the children of Benjamin, by the borders around it, according to their families.
  
  21 Now the cities of the tribe of the children of Benjamin according to their families were Jericho, Beth Hoglah, Emek Keziz,
  
  22 Beth Arabah, Zemaraim, Bethel,
  
  23 Avvim, Parah, Ophrah,
  
  24 Chephar Ammoni, Ophni, and Geba; twelve cities with their villages.
  
  25 Gibeon, Ramah, Beeroth,
  
  26 Mizpeh, Chephirah, Mozah,
  
  27 Rekem, Irpeel, Taralah,
  
  28 Zelah, Eleph, the Jebusite (the same is Jerusalem), Gibeath, and Kiriath; fourteen cities with their villages. This is the inheritance of the children of Benjamin according to their families.
  
  Josué 19
  
  1 The second lot came out for Simeon, even for the tribe of the children of Simeon according to their families. Their inheritance was in the midst of the inheritance of the children of Judah.
  
  2 They had for their inheritance Beersheba (or Sheba), Moladah,
  
  3 Hazar Shual, Balah, Ezem,
  
  4 Eltolad, Bethul, Hormah,
  
  5 Ziklag, Beth Marcaboth, Hazar Susah,
  
  6 Beth Lebaoth, and Sharuhen; thirteen cities with their villages;
  
  7 Ain, Rimmon, Ether, and Ashan; four cities with their villages;
  
  8 and all the villages that were around these cities to Baalath Beer, Ramah of the South. This is the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Simeon according to their families.
  
  9 Out of the part of the children of Judah was the inheritance of the children of Simeon; for the portion of the children of Judah was too much for them. Therefore the children of Simeon had inheritance in the midst of their inheritance.
  
  10 The third lot came up for the children of Zebulun according to their families. The border of their inheritance was to Sarid.
  
  11 Their border went up westward, even to Maralah, and reached to Dabbesheth. It reached to the brook that is before Jokneam.
  
  12 It turned from Sarid eastward toward the sunrise to the border of Chisloth Tabor. It went out to Daberath, and went up to Japhia.
  
  13 From there it passed along eastward to Gath Hepher, to Ethkazin; and it went out at Rimmon which stretches to Neah.
  
  14 The border turned around it on the north to Hannathon; and it ended at the valley of Iphtah El;
  
  15 Kattath, Nahalal, Shimron, Idalah, and Bethlehem: twelve cities with their villages.
  
  16 This is the inheritance of the children of Zebulun according to their families, these cities with their villages.
  
  17 The fourth lot came out for Issachar, even for the children of Issachar according to their families.
  
  18 Their border was to Jezreel, Chesulloth, Shunem,
  
  19 Hapharaim, Shion, Anaharath,
  
  20 Rabbith, Kishion, Ebez,
  
  21 Remeth, Engannim, En Haddah, and Beth Pazzez.
  
  22 The border reached to Tabor, Shahazumah, and Beth Shemesh. Their border ended at the Jordan: sixteen cities with their villages.
  
  23 This is the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Issachar according to their families, the cities with their villages.
  
  24 The fifth lot came out for the tribe of the children of Asher according to their families.
  
  25 Their border was Helkath, Hali, Beten, Achshaph,
  
  26 Allammelech, Amad, Mishal. It reached to Carmel westward, and to Shihorlibnath.
  
  27 It turned toward the sunrise to Beth Dagon, and reached to Zebulun, and to the valley of Iphtah El northward to Beth Emek and Neiel. It went out to Cabul on the left hand,
  
  28 and Ebron, Rehob, Hammon, and Kanah, even to great Sidon.
  
  29 The border turned to Ramah, to the fortified city of Tyre; and the border turned to Hosah. It ended at the sea by the region of Achzib;
  
  30 Ummah also, and Aphek, and Rehob: twenty-two cities with their villages.
  
  31 This is the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Asher according to their families, these cities with their villages.
  
  32 The sixth lot came out for the children of Naphtali, even for the children of Naphtali according to their families.
  
  33 Their border was from Heleph, from the oak in Zaanannim, Adaminekeb, and Jabneel, to Lakkum. It ended at the Jordan.
  
  34 The border turned westward to Aznoth Tabor, and went out from there to Hukkok. It reached to Zebulun on the south, and reached to Asher on the west, and to Judah at the Jordan toward the sunrise.
  
  35 The fortified cities were Ziddim, Zer, Hammath, Rakkath, Chinnereth,
  
  36 Adamah, Ramah, Hazor,
  
  37 Kedesh, Edrei, En Hazor,
  
  38 Iron, Migdal El, Horem, Beth Anath, and Beth Shemesh; nineteen cities with their villages.
  
  39 This is the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Naphtali according to their families, the cities with their villages.
  
  40 The seventh lot came out for the tribe of the children of Dan according to their families.
  
  41 The border of their inheritance was Zorah, Eshtaol, Irshemesh,
  
  42 Shaalabbin, Aijalon, Ithlah,
  
  43 Elon, Timnah, Ekron,
  
  44 Eltekeh, Gibbethon, Baalath,
  
  45 Jehud, Bene Berak, Gath Rimmon,
  
  46 Me Jarkon, and Rakkon, with the border over against Joppa.
  
  47 The border of the children of Dan went out beyond them; for the children of Dan went up and fought against Leshem, and took it, and struck it with the edge of the sword, and possessed it, and lived therein, and called Leshem, Dan, after the name of Dan their father.
  
  48 This is the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Dan according to their families, these cities with their villages.
  
  49 So they made an end of distributing the land for inheritance by its borders. The children of Israel gave an inheritance to Joshua the son of Nun in their midst.
  
  50 According to the commandment of Yahweh, they gave him the city which he asked, even Timnathserah in the hill country of Ephraim; and he built the city, and lived there.
  
  51 These are the inheritances, which Eleazar the priest, Joshua the son of Nun, and the heads of the fathers' houses of the tribes of the children of Israel, distributed for inheritance by lot in Shiloh before Yahweh, at the door of the Tent of Meeting. So they made an end of dividing the land.

  2 Let Israel rejoice in him who made them. Let the children of Zion be joyful in their King.

  4 For Yahweh takes pleasure in his people. He crowns the humble with salvation.
  
  5 Let the saints rejoice in honor. Let them sing for joy on their beds.
  
  6 May the high praises of God be in their mouths, and a two-edged sword in their hand;
  
  7 To execute vengeance on the nations, and punishments on the peoples;
  
  8 To bind their kings with chains, and their nobles with fetters of iron;
  
  9 to execute on them the written judgment. All his saints have this honor. Praise Yah!

  Jérémie 9
  
  1 Oh that my head were waters, and my eyes a spring of tears, that I might weep day and night for the slain of the daughter of my people!
  
  2 Oh that I had in the wilderness a lodging place of wayfaring men; that I might leave my people, and go from them! for they are all adulterers, an assembly of treacherous men.
  
  3 They bend their tongue, as their bow, for falsehood; and they are grown strong in the land, but not for truth: for they proceed from evil to evil, and they don't know me, says Yahweh.
  
  4 Take heed everyone of his neighbor, and don't trust in any brother; for every brother will utterly supplant, and every neighbor will go about with slanders.
  
  5 They will deceive everyone his neighbor, and will not speak the truth: they have taught their tongue to speak lies; they weary themselves to commit iniquity.
  
  6 Your habitation is in the midst of deceit; through deceit they refuse to know me, says Yahweh.
  
  7 Therefore thus says Yahweh of Armies, Behold, I will melt them, and try them; for how should I deal with the daughter of my people?
  
  8 Their tongue is a deadly arrow; it speaks deceit: one speaks peaceably to his neighbor with his mouth, but in his heart he lays wait for him.
  
  9 Shall I not visit them for these things? says Yahweh; shall not my soul be avenged on such a nation as this?
  
  10 For the mountains will I take up a weeping and wailing, and for the pastures of the wilderness a lamentation, because they are burned up, so that none passes through; neither can men hear the voice of the livestock; both the birds of the sky and the animals are fled, they are gone.
  
  11 I will make Jerusalem heaps, a dwelling place of jackals; and I will make the cities of Judah a desolation, without inhabitant.
  
  12 Who is the wise man, that may understand this? Who is he to whom the mouth of Yahweh has spoken, that he may declare it? Why is the land perished and burned up like a wilderness, so that none passes through?
  
  13 Yahweh says, Because they have forsaken my law which I set before them, and have not obeyed my voice, neither walked therein,
  
  14 but have walked after the stubbornness of their own heart, and after the Baals, which their fathers taught them;
  
  15 therefore thus says Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel, Behold, I will feed them, even this people, with wormwood, and give them water of gall to drink.
  
  16 I will scatter them also among the nations, whom neither they nor their fathers have known; and I will send the sword after them, until I have consumed them.
  
  17 Thus says Yahweh of Armies, Consider, and call for the mourning women, that they may come; and send for the skillful women, that they may come:
  
  18 and let them make haste, and take up a wailing for us, that our eyes may run down with tears, and our eyelids gush out with waters.
  
  19 For a voice of wailing is heard out of Zion, How are we ruined! we are greatly confounded, because we have forsaken the land, because they have cast down our dwellings.
  
  20 Yet hear the word of Yahweh, you women, and let your ear receive the word of his mouth; and teach your daughters wailing, and everyone her neighbor lamentation.
  
  21 For death has come up into our windows, it is entered into our palaces; to cut off the children from outside, and the young men from the streets.
  
  22 Speak, Thus says Yahweh, The dead bodies of men shall fall as dung on the open field, and as the handful after the harvester; and none shall gather them.
  
  23 Thus says Yahweh, Don't let the wise man glory in his wisdom, neither let the mighty man glory in his might, don't let the rich man glory in his riches;
  
  24 but let him who glories glory in this, that he has understanding, and knows me, that I am Yahweh who exercises loving kindness, justice, and righteousness, in the earth: for in these things I delight, says Yahweh.
  
  25 Behold, the days come, says Yahweh, that I will punish all those who are circumcised in uncircumcision:
  
  26 Egypt, and Judah, and Edom, and the children of Ammon, and Moab, and all that have the corners of their hair cut off, who dwell in the wilderness; for all the nations are uncircumcised, and all the house of Israel are uncircumcised in heart.
