Навин 15:1-8
The allotment for the tribe of Judah, according to its clans, extended down to the territory of Edom, to the Desert of Zin in the extreme south.Their southern boundary started from the bay at the southern end of the Dead Sea,crossed south of Scorpion Pass, continued on to Zin and went over to the south of Kadesh Barnea. Then it ran past Hezron up to Addar and curved around to Karka.It then passed along to Azmon and joined the Wadi of Egypt, ending at the Mediterranean Sea. This is their southern boundary.The eastern boundary is the Dead Sea as far as the mouth of the Jordan. The northern boundary started from the bay of the sea at the mouth of the Jordan,went up to Beth Hoglah and continued north of Beth Arabah to the Stone of Bohan son of Reuben.The boundary then went up to Debir from the Valley of Achor and turned north to Gilgal, which faces the Pass of Adummim south of the gorge. It continued along to the waters of En Shemesh and came out at En Rogel.Then it ran up the Valley of Ben Hinnom along the southern slope of the Jebusite city( that is, Jerusalem). From there it climbed to the top of the hill west of the Hinnom Valley at the northern end of the Valley of Rephaim. (niv)
Второзаконие 10:1-22
At that time the Lord said to me,“ Chisel out two stone tablets like the first ones and come up to me on the mountain. Also make a wooden ark.I will write on the tablets the words that were on the first tablets, which you broke. Then you are to put them in the ark.”So I made the ark out of acacia wood and chiseled out two stone tablets like the first ones, and I went up on the mountain with the two tablets in my hands.The Lord wrote on these tablets what he had written before, the Ten Commandments he had proclaimed to you on the mountain, out of the fire, on the day of the assembly. And the Lord gave them to me.Then I came back down the mountain and put the tablets in the ark I had made, as the Lord commanded me, and they are there now.( The Israelites traveled from the wells of Bene Jaakan to Moserah. There Aaron died and was buried, and Eleazar his son succeeded him as priest.From there they traveled to Gudgodah and on to Jotbathah, a land with streams of water.At that time the Lord set apart the tribe of Levi to carry the ark of the covenant of the Lord, to stand before the Lord to minister and to pronounce blessings in his name, as they still do today.That is why the Levites have no share or inheritance among their fellow Israelites; the Lord is their inheritance, as the Lord your God told them.)Now I had stayed on the mountain forty days and forty nights, as I did the first time, and the Lord listened to me at this time also. It was not his will to destroy you.“ Go,” the Lord said to me,“ and lead the people on their way, so that they may enter and possess the land I swore to their ancestors to give them.”And now, Israel, what does the Lord your God ask of you but to fear the Lord your God, to walk in obedience to him, to love him, to serve the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul,and to observe the Lord’s commands and decrees that I am giving you today for your own good?To the Lord your God belong the heavens, even the highest heavens, the earth and everything in it.Yet the Lord set his affection on your ancestors and loved them, and he chose you, their descendants, above all the nations— as it is today.Circumcise your hearts, therefore, and do not be stiff-necked any longer.For the Lord your God is God of gods and Lord of lords, the great God, mighty and awesome, who shows no partiality and accepts no bribes.He defends the cause of the fatherless and the widow, and loves the foreigner residing among you, giving them food and clothing.And you are to love those who are foreigners, for you yourselves were foreigners in Egypt.Fear the Lord your God and serve him. Hold fast to him and take your oaths in his name.He is the one you praise; he is your God, who performed for you those great and awesome wonders you saw with your own eyes.Your ancestors who went down into Egypt were seventy in all, and now the Lord your God has made you as numerous as the stars in the sky.

Навин 16:1-10
The allotment for Joseph began at the Jordan, east of the springs of Jericho, and went up from there through the desert into the hill country of Bethel.It went on from Bethel( that is, Luz), crossed over to the territory of the Arkites in Ataroth,descended westward to the territory of the Japhletites as far as the region of Lower Beth Horon and on to Gezer, ending at the Mediterranean Sea.So Manasseh and Ephraim, the descendants of Joseph, received their inheritance.This was the territory of Ephraim, according to its clans: The boundary of their inheritance went from Ataroth Addar in the east to Upper Beth Horonand continued to the Mediterranean Sea. From Mikmethath on the north it curved eastward to Taanath Shiloh, passing by it to Janoah on the east.Then it went down from Janoah to Ataroth and Naarah, touched Jericho and came out at the Jordan.From Tappuah the border went west to the Kanah Ravine and ended at the Mediterranean Sea. This was the inheritance of the tribe of the Ephraimites, according to its clans.It also included all the towns and their villages that were set aside for the Ephraimites within the inheritance of the Manassites.They did not dislodge the Canaanites living in Gezer; to this day the Canaanites live among the people of Ephraim but are required to do forced labor.
