Joshua 18:11-28

11The first lot belonged to the tribe of Benjamin by its clans. Their allotted territory was between Judah and Joseph.

12Their northern border started at the Jordan, went up to the slope of Jericho on the north, ascended westward to the hill country, and extended to the desert of Beth Aven.

13It then crossed from there to Luz, to the slope of Luz to the south (that is, Bethel), and descended to Ataroth Addar located on the hill that is south of lower Beth Horon.

14It then turned on the west side southward from the hill near Beth Horon on the south and extended to Kiriath Baal (that is, Kiriath Jearim), a city belonging to the tribe of Judah. This is the western border.

15The southern side started on the edge of Kiriath Jearim and extended westward to the spring of the waters of Nephtoah.

16The border then descended to the edge of the hill country near the Valley of Ben Hinnom located in the Valley of the Rephaites to the north. It descended through the Valley of Hinnom to the slope of the Jebusites to the south and then down to En Rogel.

17It went northward, extending to En Shemesh and Geliloth opposite the Pass of Adummim, and descended to the Stone of Bohan son of Reuben.

18It crossed to the slope in front of the Arabah to the north and descended into the Arabah.

19It then crossed to the slope of Beth Hoglah to the north and ended at the northern tip of the Salt Sea at the mouth of the Jordan River. This was the southern border.

20The Jordan River borders it on the east. These were the borders of the land assigned to the tribe of Benjamin by its clans.
