9From the tribesH4294 of JudahH1121H3063H4294 and SimeonH8095, they designatedH5414 theseH428 citiesH5892 by nameH8034 10to the descendantsH1121 of AaronH175 from the KohathiteH6956 clansH4940 of the LevitesH1121H3878, becauseH3588 the firstH7223 lotH1486 fellH1961 to them:
11They gaveH5414 them Kiriath-arbaH7153 (that isH1931, HebronH2275), with its surroundingH5439 pasturelandsH4054, in the hill countryH2022 of JudahH3063H854. (Arba was the fatherH1 of AnakH6061.) 12But they had givenH5414 the fieldsH7704 and villagesH2691 around the cityH5892 to CalebH3612 sonH1121 of JephunnehH3312 as his possessionH272. 13So to the descendantsH1121 of AaronH175 the priestH3548 they gaveH5414 these cities, together withH853 their pasturelandsH4054: HebronH2275, a cityH5892 of refugeH4733 for the manslayerH7523, LibnahH3841, 14JattirH3492, EshtemoaH851, 15HolonH2473, DebirH1688, 16AinH5871, JuttahH3194, and Beth-shemeshH1053—nineH8672 citiesH5892 fromH854 theseH428 twoH8147 tribesH7626, together withH853 their pasturelandsH4054.
17And from the tribeH4294 of Benjamin they gaveH1144 themH853 GibeonH1391, GebaH1387, 18AnathothH6068, and AlmonH5960—fourH702 citiesH5892, together withH853 their pasturelandsH4054.
19In allH3605, thirteenH7969H6240 citiesH5892, together with their pasturelandsH4054, were given to the priestsH3548, the descendantsH1121 of AaronH175.
20The remainingH3498H1121 KohathiteH6955 clansH4940 of the LevitesH3881 were allottedH1486H1961 these citiesH5892:
21From the tribeH4294 of EphraimH669 they were givenH5414 ShechemH7927 in the hill countryH2022 of EphraimH669 (a cityH5892 of refugeH4733 for the manslayerH7523), GezerH1507, 22KibzaimH6911, and Beth-horonH1032—fourH702 citiesH5892, together withH853 their pasturelandsH4054. 23From the tribeH4294 of DanH1835 they were given EltekeH514, GibbethonH1405, 24AijalonH357, and Gath-rimmonH1667—fourH702 citiesH5892, together withH853 their pasturelandsH4054. 25And from the half-tribeH4276H4294 of ManassehH4519 they were given TaanachH8590 andH853 Gath-rimmonH1667—twoH8147 citiesH5892, together withH853 their pasturelandsH4054. 26In allH3605, tenH6235 citiesH5892, together with their pasturelandsH4054, were given to the restH3498 of the KohathiteH6955 clansH4940.
