Septuagint (Brenton Greek text, with Apocrypha)
1And all the children of Israel assembled together in Silo, and there they set up the tabernacle of the testimony, and the land was subdued before them.
1Καὶ ἐξεκκλησιάσθη πᾶσα συναγωγὴ υἱῶν Ἰσραὴλ εἰς Σηλὼ, καὶ ἔπηξαν ἐκεῖ τὴν σκηνὴν τοῦ μαρτυρίου· καὶ ἡ γῆ ἐκρατήθη ὑπʼ αὐτῶν.
2But there remained seven tribes of the children of Israel, which as yet had not received their possessions.
2Καὶ κατελείφθησαν οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰσραὴλ, οἳ οὐκ ἐκληρονόμησαν, ἑπτὰ φυλαί.
3And Josue said to them: How long are you indolent and slack, and go not in to possess the land which the Lord the God of your fathers hath given you?
3Καὶ εἶπεν Ἰησοῦς τοῖς υἱοῖς Ἰσραὴλ, ἕως τίνος ἐκλυθήσεσθε κληρονομῆσαι τὴν γῆν, ἣν ἔδωκε Κύριος ὁ Θεὸς ἡμῶν;
4Choose of every tribe three men, that I may send them, and they may go and compass the land, and mark it out according to the number of each multitude: and bring back to me what they have marked out.
4Δότε ἐξ ὑμῶν ἄνδρας τρεῖς ἐκ φυλῆς, καὶ ἀναστάντες διελθέτωσαν τὴν γῆν, καὶ διαγραψάτωσαν αὐτὴν ἐναντίον μου, καθὰ δεήσει διελεῖν αὐτήν. Καὶ διέλθοσαν πρὸς αὐτόν·
5Divide to yourselves the land into seven parts: let Juda be in his bounds on the south side, and the house of Joseph on the north.
5καὶ διεῖλεν αὐτοῖς ἑπτὰ μερίδας· Ἰούδας στήσεται αὐτοῖς ὅριον ἀπὸ Λιβὸς, καὶ οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰωσὴφ στήσονται αὐτοῖς ἀπὸ Βοῤῥᾶ.
6The land in the midst between these mark ye out into seven parts; and you shall come hither to me, that I may cast lots for you before the Lord your God.
6Ὑμεῖς δὲ μερίσατε τὴν γῆν ἑπτὰ μερίδας, καὶ ἐνέγκατε ὧδε πρὸς μὲ, καὶ ἐξοίσω ὑμῖν κλῆρον ἔναντι Κυρίου τοῦ Θεοῦ ἡμῶν.
7For the Levites have no part among you, but the priesthood of the Lord is their inheritance. And Gad and Ruben, and the half tribe of Manasses have already received their possessions beyond the Jordan eastward: which Moses the servant of the Lord gave them.
7Οὐ γάρ ἐστι μερὶς τοῖς υἱοῖς Λευὶ ἐν ὑμῖν· ἱερατεία γὰρ Κυρίου μερὶς αὐτοῦ· καὶ Γὰδ καὶ Ῥουβὴν καὶ τὸ ἥμισυ φυλῆς Μανασσῆ ἐλάβοσαν τὴν κληρονομίαν αὐτῶν πέραν τοῦ Ἰορδάνου ἐπʼ ἀνατολῆς, ἣν ἔδωκεν αὐτοῖς Μωυσῆς ὁ παῖς Κυρίου.
8And when the men were risen up, to go to mark out the land, Josue commanded them, saying: Go round the land and mark it out, and return to me: that I may cast lots for you before the Lord in Silo.
8Καὶ ἀναστάντες οἱ ἄνδρες ἐπορεύθησαν· καὶ ἐνετείλατο Ἰησοῦς τοῖς ἀνδράσι τοῖς πορευομένοις χωροβατῆσαι τὴν γῆν, λέγων, πορεύεσθε καὶ χωροβατήσατε τὴν γῆν, καὶ παραγενήθητε πρὸς μὲ, καὶ ὧδε ἐξοίσω ὑμῖν κλῆρον ἔναντι Κυρίου ἐν Σηλώ.
9So they went: and surveying it divided it into seven parts, writing them down in a book. And they returned to Josue, to the camp in Silo.
9Καὶ ἐπορεύθησαν, καὶ ἐχωροβάτησαν τὴν γῆν· καὶ εἴδοσαν αὐτὴν, καὶ ἔγραψαν αὐτὴν κατὰ πόλεις, ἑπτα μερίδας εἰς βιβλίον, καὶ ἤνεγκαν πρὸς Ἰησοῦν.
10And he cast lots before the Lord in Silo, and divided the land to the children of Israel into seven parts.
10Καὶ ἐνέβαλεν αὐτοῖς Ἰησοῦς κλῆρον ἐν Σηλὼ ἔναντι Κυρίου.
11And first came up the lot of the children of Benjamin by their families, to possess the land between the children of Juda, and the children of Joseph.
11Καὶ ἐξῆλθεν ὁ κλῆρος φυλῆς Βενιαμὶν πρῶτος κατὰ δήμους αὐτῶν· καὶ ἐξῆλθεν ὅρια τοῦ κλήρου αὐτῶν ἀναμέσον υἱῶν Ἰούδα καὶ ἀναμέσον τῶν υἱῶν Ἰωσήφ.
12And their border northward was from the Jordan: going along by the side of Jericho on the north side, and thence going up westward to the mountains, and reaching to the wilderness of Bethaven,
12Καὶ ἐγενήθη αὐτῶν τὰ ὅρια ἀπὸ Βοῤῥᾶ· ἀπὸ τοῦ Ἱορδάνου προσαναβήσεται τὰ ὅρια κατὰ νὼτου Ἱεριχὼ ἀπὸ Βοῤῥᾶ, καὶ ἀναβήσεται ἐπὶ τὸ ὄρος ἐπὶ τὴν θάλασσαν, καὶ ἔσται αὐτοῦ ἡ διέξοδος ἡ Μαβδαρίτις Βαιθών.
13And passing along southward by Luza, the same is Bethel: and it goeth down into Ataroth-addar to the mountain, that is on the south of the nether Beth-horon.
13Καὶ διελεύσεται ἐκεῖθεν τὰ ὅρια Λοῦζὰ ἐπὶ νώτου Λουζὰ ἀπὸ Λιβὸς αὐτῆς· αὕτη ἐστὶ Βαιθήλ· καὶ καταβήσεται τὰ ὅρια Μααταρὼβ Ὀρὲχ ἐπὶ τὴν ὀρεινὴν, ἥ ἐστι πρὸς Λίβα Βαιθωρὼν ἡ κάτω.
14And it bendeth thence going round towards the sea, south of the mountain that looketh towards Beth-horon to the southwest: and the outgoings thereof are into Cariathbaal, which is called also Cariathiarim, a city of the children of Juda. This is their coast towards the sea, westward.
14Καὶ διελεύσεται τὰ ὅρια καὶ παρελεύσεται ἐπὶ τὸ μέρος τὸ βλέπον παρὰ θάλασσαν ἀπὸ Λιβὸς ἀπὸ τοῦ ὄρους ἐπὶ πρόσωπον Βαιθωρὼν Λίβα· καὶ ἔσται αὐτοῦ ἡ διέξοδος εἰς Καριὰθ Βαάλ· αὕτη ἐστὶ Καριαθιαρὶν, πόλις υἱῶν Ἰούδα· τοῦτό ἐστι τὸ μέρος τὸ πρὸς θάλασσαν.
15But on the south side the border goeth out from part of Cariathiarim towards the sea, and cometh to the fountain of the waters of Nephtoa.
15Καὶ μέρος τὸ πρὸς Λίβα ἀπὸ μέρους Καριὰθ Βαάλ· καὶ διελεύσεται ὅρια εἰς Γασὶν, ἐπὶ πηγὴν ὕδατος Ναφθώ.
16And it goeth down to that part of the mountain that looketh on the valley of the children of Ennom: and is over against the north quarter in the furthermost part of the valley of Raphaim, and it goeth down into Geennom (that is the valley of Ennom) by the side of the Jebusite to the south: and cometh to the fountain of Rogel,
16Καὶ καταβήσεται τὰ ὅρια ἐπὶ μέρους, τοῦτό ἐστι κατὰ πρόσωπον νάπης Σοννὰμ, ὅ ἐστιν ἐκ μέρους Ἐμὲκ Ῥαφαῒν ἀπὸ Βοῤῥᾶ, καὶ καταβήσεται Γαίεννα ἐπὶ νῶτον Ἰεβουσαὶ ἀπὸ Λιβός· καταβήσεται ἐπὶ πηγὴν Ῥωγήλ·
17Passing thence to the north, and going out to Ensemes, that is to say, the fountain of the sue:
17Καὶ διελεύσεται ἐπὶ πηγὴν Βαιθσαμύς· καὶ παρελεύσεται ἐπὶ Γαλιλὼθ, ἥ ἐστιν ἀπέναντι πρὸς ἀνάβασις Αἰθαμίν· καὶ καταβήσεται ἐπὶ λίθον Βαιὼν υἱῶν Ῥουβήν·
18And it passeth along to the hills that are over against the ascent of Adommim: and it goeth down to Abenboen, that is, the stone of Been the son of Ruben: and it passeth on the north side to the champaign countries; and goeth down into the plain,
18καὶ διελεύσεται κατὰ νώτου Βαιθάραβα ἀπὸ Βοῤῥᾶ, καὶ καταβήσεται ἐπὶ τὰ ὅρια ἐπὶ νῶτον θάλασσαν ἀπὸ Βοῤῥᾶ.
19And it passeth by Bethhagla northward: and the outgoings thereof are towards the north of the most salt sea at the south end of the Jordan:
19Καὶ ἔσται ἡ διέξοδος τῶν ὁρίων ἐπὶ λοφιὰν τῆς θαλάσσης τῶν ἁλῶν ἐπὶ Βοῤῥᾶν εἰς μέρος τοῦ Ἰορδάνου ἀπὸ Λιβός· ταῦτα τὰ ὅριά ἐστιν ἀπὸ Λιβός.
20Which is the border of it on the east side. This is the possession of the children of Benjamin by their borders round about, and their families.
20Καὶ ὁ Ἰορδάνης ὁριεῖ ἀπὸ μέρους ἀνατολῶν· αὕτη ἡ κληρονομία υἱῶν Βενιαμὶν, τὰ ὅρια αὐτῆς κύκλῳ κατὰ δήμους.
21And their cities were, Jericho and Bethhagla and Vale-Casis,
21Καὶ ἐγενήθησαν αἱ πόλεις τῶν υιῶν Βενιαμὶν κατὰ δήμους αὐτῶν Ἱερειχὼ, καὶ Βεθεγαιὼ, καὶ Ἀμεκασὶς,
22Betharaba and Samaraim and Bethel,
22καὶ Βαιθαβαρὰ, καὶ Σαρὰ, καὶ Βησανὰ,
23And Avim and Aphara and Ophera,
23καὶ Αἰεὶν, καὶ Φαρὰ, καὶ Ἐφραθὰ,
24The town Emona and Ophni and Gabee: twelve cities, and their villages.
24καὶ Καραφὰ, καὶ Κεφιρὰ, καὶ Μονὶ, καὶ Γαβαὰ, πόλεις δώδεκα· καὶ αἱ κῶμαι αὐτῶν,
25Gabam and Rama and Beroth,
25Γαβαὼν, καὶ Ῥαμὰ, καὶ Βεηρωθὰ,
26And Mesphe, and Caphara, and Amosa,
26καὶ Μασσημὰ, καὶ Μιρὼν, καὶ Ἀμωκὴ,
27And Recem, Jarephel and Tharela,
27καὶ Φιρὰ, καὶ Καφὰν, καὶ Νακὰν, καὶ Ζεληκὰν, καὶ Θαρεηλὰ,
28And Sela, Eleph and Jebus, which is Jerusalem, Gabaath and Cariath: fourteen cities, and their villages. This is the possession of the children of Benjamin by their families.
28καὶ Ἰηβοῦς· αὕτη ἐστὶν Ἱερουσαλήμ· καὶ Γαβαὼθ, Ἰαρὶμ, πόλεις δεκατρεῖς, καὶ αἱ κῶμαι αὐτῶν· αὕτη ἡ κληρονομία υἱῶν Βενιαμὶν κατὰ δήμους αὐτῶν.
