And David said, Whither shall I go up? And he said, Unto Hebron. ² So David went up thither, and his two wives also, Achino’am the Yizre’elitess, and Abigayil, Nabal’s wife, the Carmelite. ³ And his men that were with him did David bring up, every man with his household; and they dwelt in the cities of Hebron.

¹ Then came all the tribes of Israel to David unto Hebron, and spoke, saying, Behold us, thy bone and thy flesh are we; ² Already yesterday, and even before, when Saul was king over us, thou wast the one that led out and brought in Israel: And the Lord said to thee, Thou shalt indeed feed my people Israel, and thou shalt be a chief over Israel. ³ Thus came all the elders of Israel to the king unto Hebron; and king David made a covenant with them in Hebron before the Lord: and they anointed David as king over Israel. ⁴ Thirty years was David old when he became king, and forty years he reigned. ⁵ In Hebron he reigned over Judah seven years and six months: and in Jerusalem he reigned thirty and three years over all Israel and Judah.

⁷ And it came to pass at the end of forty years, that Abshalom said unto the king, Let me go, I pray thee, and fulfill my vow, which I have vowed unto the Lord, at Hebron.

^{55 (6:40)} And they gave unto them Hebron in the land of Judah, with its open spaces round about it.

¹³ And Joshua blessed him, and gave Hebron unto Caleb the son of Yephunneh for an inheritance. ¹⁴ Therefore did Hebron become the inheritance of Caleb the son of Yephunneh the Kenizzite unto this day; for the cause that he had wholly followed the Lord the God of Israel. ¹⁵ And the name of Hebron was aforetimes Kiryatharba’, who was the greatest man among the ‘Anakim. And the land had rest from war.

^{55 (6:40)} And they gave unto them Hebron in the land of Judah, with its open spaces round about it. ^{56 (6:41)} But the fields of the city, and its villages, they gave to Caleb the son Jephunneh. ^{57 (6:42)} And to the sons of Aaron they gave of the cities of refuge Hebron, and Libnah with its open spaces, and Jattir, and Eshthemoa, with its open spaces.

⁶ And the cities which ye shall give unto the Levites shall be the six cities of refuge, which ye shall appoint that the manslayer may flee thither; and in addition to them shall ye give forty and two cities.

²⁹ Then did Joshua, and all Israel with him, pass from Makkedah unto Libnah; and he fought against Libnah;

⁴² Libnah, and ‘Ether, and ‘Ashan,

⁷ And they appointed Kedesh in Galilee in the mountain of Naphtali, and Shechem in the mountain of Ephraim, and Kiryath-arba’, which is Hebron, in the mountain of Judah.

⁸ And Rabshakeh returned, and found the king of Assyria warring against Libnah; for he had heard that he was departed from Lachish.

⁴⁸ And in the mountains, Shamir, and Yattir, and Sochoh,

⁵⁰ And ‘Anab, and Eshtemoh, and ‘Anim.

²⁷ To those who were in Beth-el, and to those who were in south Ramoth, and to those who were in Yattir, ²⁸ And to those who were in ‘Aro’er, and to those who were in Siphmoth, and to those who were in Eshtemoa’,

⁵¹ And Goshen, and Cholon, and Giloh: eleven cities with their villages.

^{58 (6:43)} And Chilen with its open spaces, Debir with its open spaces,

¹⁰ And the boundary compassed from Ba’alah westward unto mount Seir, and passed along unto the side of mount Ye’arim, which is Kessalon, on the north side, and went down to Beth-shemesh, and passed on to Timnah;

⁵⁵ Ma’on, Carmel, and Ziph, and Yutah,

⁹ And then see, if it go up by the way to its own boundary, to Beth-shemesh, then hath he done us this great evil; but if not, then shall we know that not his hand hath smitten us; it is a chance which hath happened to us.

¹² And the cows went straight forward on the way on the road to Beth-shemesh: on one highway they did go along, lowing as they went, and turned not aside to the right or to the left; and the lords of the Philistines went after them as far as the border of Beth-shemesh.

^{59 (6:44)} And ‘Ashan with its open spaces, and Beth-shemesh with its open spaces.

³ And when the inhabitants of Gib’on heard what Joshua had done unto Jericho and unto ‘Ai,

²⁴ And Kephar-ha’ammonah, and ‘Ophni, and Geba’: twelve cities with their villages. ²⁵ Gib’on, and Ramah, and Beeroth,

^{60 (6:45)} And from the tribe of Benjamin, Geba’ with its open spaces, and ‘Alemeth with its open spaces, and ‘Anathoth with its open spaces. And all their cities were thirteen cities after their families.

²⁶ And unto Ebyathar the priest said the king, Go to ‘Anathoth, unto thy own fields; for thou art a man worthy of death; but on this day will I not put thee to death; because thou hast borne the ark of the Lord Eternal before David my father, and because thou was afflicted in all wherein my father was afflicted.

³⁰ Let thy voice resound, O daughter of Gallim; listen Layshah; O poor ‘Anathoth!

¹ The words of Jeremiah the son of Chilkiyahu, one of the priests that were in ‘Anathoth in the land of Benjamin;

⁵ And the rest of the children of Kehath obtained from the families of the tribe of Ephraim, and from the tribe of Dan, and from the half tribe of Menasseh, by lot, ten cities.

^{66 (6:51)} And some of the families of the sons of Kehath had the cities of their territory from the tribe of Ephraim.

¹⁹ And he bought the parcel of the field, where he had spread his tent, at the hand of the children of Chamor, the father of Shechem, for a hundred kessitah.

¹⁰ And they drove not out the Canaanites that dwelt in Gezer; but the Canaanites dwelt among the Ephraimites until this day, and became tributary servants.

¹ And Abimelech the son of Yerubba’al went to Shechem unto his mother’s brothers, and spoke unto them, and unto all the family of the house of his mother’s father, saying,

¹⁵ And this is the manner of the levy which king Solomon raised, to build the house of the Lord, and his own house, and the Millo, and the wall of Jerusalem, and Chazor, and Megiddo, and Gezer. ¹⁶ (Pharaoh king of Egypt had gone up, and captured Gezer, and burnt it with fire, and slain the Canaanites that dwelt in the city, and given it as a marriage-present unto his daughter, Solomon’s wife. ¹⁷ And Solomon built Gezer, and lower Beth-choron,

¹ And Rehobo’am went to Shechem; for all Israel were come to Shechem to make him king.

^{67 (6:52)} And they gave unto them, of the cities of refuge Sechem with its open spaces in the mountain of Ephraim, and Gezer with its open spaces.

³ And went down westward to the boundary of the Yaphleti, unto the border of Beth-choron the lower, and to Gezer; and its terminations were toward the sea.

⁵ And this was the boundary of the children of Ephraim according to their families; and the boundary of their inheritance on the east side was ‘Atroth-addar, up to Beth-choron the upper;

¹³ And the boundary went over from there toward Luz, to the south side of Luz, which is Beth-el; and the boundary descended to ‘Atroth-addar, upon the mount that is on the south side of the lower Beth-choron. ¹⁴ And the border extended thence, and fetched a compass to the west side, to the south of the mount that is before Beth-choron at the south; and its terminations were at Kiryath-ba’al, which is Kiryath-ye’arim, a city of the children of Judah: this was the west side.

⁴² And Sha’alabbin, and Ayalon, and Yithlah,

^{69 (6:54)} And Ayalon with its open spaces, and Gath-rimmon with its open spaces.

¹⁹ There came kings, and fought, then fought the kings of Canaan, in Ta’anach by the waters of Megiddo: gain of money they took not away.

⁴ After he had smitten Sichon the king of the Emorites, who dwelt in Cheshbon, and ‘Og the king of Bashan, who dwelt at ‘Ashtaroth in Edre’i.

⁴³ Bezer in the wilderness, in the plain country, for the Reubenites; and Ramoth in Gil’ad for the Gadites; and Golan in Bashan for the Menassites.

¹¹ The king of Yarmuth, one; the king of Lachish, one;

²⁵ And their boundary was Chelkath, and Chali, and Beten, and Achshaph, ²⁶ And Allammelech, and ‘Am’ad, and Mishal; and it touched on Carmel at the sea, and on Shichor-libnath; ²⁷ And it turned toward the rising of the sun to Beth-dagon, and touched on Zebulun, and on the valley of Yiphthach-el at the north, on Beth-ha’emek, and Ne’iel, and went out to Cabul on the left, ²⁸ And ‘Ebron, and Rechob, and Chammon, and Kanah, up to Zidon the great city,

³¹ Asher did not drive out the inhabitants of ‘Akko, nor the inhabitants of Zidon, nor of Achlab, nor of Achzib, nor of Chelbah, nor of Aphik, nor of Rechob;

^{77 (6:62)} Unto the remaining portion of the children of Merari were given from the tribe of Zebulun, Rimmono with its open spaces, Tabor with its open spaces.

²⁴ Then came David to Machanayim: and Abshalom passed over the Jordan, he and all the men of Israel with him.

^{32 (19:33)} Now Barzillai was very aged, eighty years old: and he had sustained the king while he lay at Machanayim; for he was a very great man.

³ And the king of Israel said unto his servants, Know ye that Ramoth in Gil’ad is ours, and we remain idle, without taking it out of the hand of the king of Syria?

^{80 (6:65)} And from the tribe of Gad: Ramoth in Gila’d with its open spaces, and Machanayim with its open spaces.

²⁶ For Cheshbon was the city of Sichon the king of the Emorites; and he had fought against the former king of Moab, and taken all his land out of his hand, up to the Arnon. ²⁷ Therefore said the poets, Come into Cheshbon, let the city of Sichon be built and established. ²⁸ For a fire is gone out of Cheshbon, a flame from the city of Sichon: it hath consumed ‘Ar-Moab, the men of the high places of the Arnon. ²⁹ Woe to thee, Moab! thou art lost, O people of Kemosh: he hath suffered his sons to become fugitives, and his daughters to go into captivity, unto the king of the Emorites, Sichon. ³⁰ We have thrown them down; lost is Cheshbon even unto Dibon, and we have laid waste all up to Nophach, which reacheth unto Medeba.

¹ Now the children of Reuben and the children of Gad had a very great multitude of cattle; and they saw the land of Ya’zer, and the land of Gil’ad, that, behold, the place was a place for cattle.

³ ‘Ataroth, and Dibon, and Ya’zer, and Nimrah, and Cheshbon, and El’aleh, and Sebam, and Nebo, and Be’on,

¹⁷ Cheshbon, and all its cities that are in the plain; Dibon, and Bamoth-ba’al, and Beth-ba’al-me’on,

²¹ And all the cities of the plain, and all the kingdom of Sichon the king of the Emorites, who reigned in Cheshbon, whom Moses smote with the princes of Midian, Evi, and Rekem, and Zur, and Chur, and Reba’, the dukes of Sichon, the dwellers of the country.

^{81 (6:66)} And Cheshbon with its open spaces, and Ja’azer with its open spaces.

⁸ For the fields of Cheshbon are withered, the vine of Sibmah—the lords of nations have beaten down its branches, they did reach as far as Ya’zer, into the wilderness did they wander; its tendrils were stretched forth, they passed over the sea. ⁹ Therefore will I weep, when weeping for Ya’zer, for the vine of Sibmah: I will moisten thee richly with my tears, O Cheshbon, and El’aleh; for over the gathering of thy summer fruits and over thy harvest the battle-cry is fallen.

³² With the weeping of Ya’zer will I weep for thee, O vine of Sibmah; thy tendrils once passed over the sea, they reached as far as to the sea of Ya’zer: over thy summer-fruits and over thy vintage the waster is fallen.

¹ And the Lord spoke unto Moses in the plains of Moab by the Jordan opposite Jericho, saying,

¹⁰ They shall teach thy ordinances unto Jacob, and thy law unto Israel: they shall put incense before thee, and whole burnt-sacrifice upon thy altar.

⁷ And the Lord appeared unto Abram, and said, Unto thy seed will I give this land. And he built there an altar unto the Lord, who had appeared unto him.

¹⁵ For all the land which thou seest, to thee will I give it, and to thy seed forever.

¹³ And he said unto Abram, Know of a surety that thy seed shall be a stranger in a land which is not theirs, and they will make them serve, and they will afflict them four hundred years. ¹⁴ And also that nation whom they shall serve, will I judge; and afterward shall they go out with great substance. ¹⁵ But thou shalt come to thy fathers in peace; thou shalt be buried in a good old age. ¹⁶ Yet the fourth generation shall come hither again; for the iniquity of the Emorites will not be full until then. ¹⁷ And it came to pass, when the sun had gone down, and it was dark, that behold a smoking furnace, and a burning flame, which passed between those pieces. ¹⁸ On the same day the Lord made a covenant with Abram, saying, Unto thy seed have I given this land, from the river of Egypt unto the great river, the river Euphrates; ¹⁹ The Kenites, and the Kenizzites, and the Kadmonites, ²⁰ And the Hittites, and the Perizzites, and the Rephaim, ²¹ And the Emorites, and the Canaanites, and the Girgashites, and the Jebusites.

³ Sojourn in this land, and I will be with thee, and will bless thee; for unto thee, and unto thy seed, will I give all these countries, and I will perform the oath which I swore unto Abraham thy father; ⁴ And I will cause thy seed to multiply as the stars of heaven, and I will give unto thy seed all these countries; and in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth bless themselves.

⁴ And may he give thee the blessing of Abraham, to thee, and to thy seed with thee; that thou mayest inherit the land of thy sojourn, which God gave unto Abraham.

¹³ And, behold, the Lord stood above it, and said, I am the Lord, the God of Abraham thy father, and the God of Isaac: the land whereon thou liest, to thee will I give it, and to thy seed; ¹⁴ And thy seed shall be as the dust of the earth, and thou shalt spread abroad to the west, and to the east, and to the north and to the south; and in thee and thy seed shall all the families of the earth be blessed.

⁸ And I am come down to deliver it out of the hand of the Egyptians, and to bring it up out of that land unto a land, good and large, unto a land flowing with milk and honey; unto the place of the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the Emorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites.

²⁷ My terror will I send before thee, and will bring in confusion all the people to which thou shalt come; and I will make all thy enemies turn their back unto thee. ²⁸ And I will send hornets before thee, and they shall drive out the Hivite, the Canaanite, and the Hittite, from before thee. ²⁹ I will not drive them out from before thee in one year; lest the land become desolate, and the beast of the field multiply against thee. ³⁰ Little by little will I drive them out from before thee, until thou be increased and canst possess the land. ³¹ And I will set thy bounds from the Red Sea unto the sea of the Philistines, and from the desert unto the river; for I will deliver into your hand the inhabitants of the land, and thou shalt drive them out before thee.

³¹ For ye are about to pass over the Jordan to go in to take possession of the land which the Lord your God giveth you; and ye will possess it, and dwell therein.

¹⁴ When thou art come unto the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee, and thou hast taken possession of it, and dwellest therein, and thou sayest, I wish to set a king over me, like all the nations that are round about me:

⁴ And the Lord said unto him, This is the land which I swore unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob, saying, Unto thy seed will I give it: I have let thee see it with thy eyes, but thither shalt thou not go over.

^{3 (44:4)} For not by their sword did they obtain possession of the land, and their own arm brought them no victory; but thy right hand, and thy arm, and the light of thy countenance, because thou hadst given them thy favor.

⁴² And their enemies also oppressed them: and they were subdued under their hand. ⁴³ Many times did he deliver them; but they rebelled with their counsel, and they were brought low through their iniquity. ⁴⁴ Nevertheless he looked on when they were in distress, when he heard their entreaty. ⁴⁵ And he remembered unto them his covenant, and he bethought himself according to the abundance of his kindnesses;

³¹ And I will set thy bounds from the Red Sea unto the sea of the Philistines, and from the desert unto the river; for I will deliver into your hand the inhabitants of the land, and thou shalt drive them out before thee.

²² And the Lord thy God will chase out these nations before thee, little by little: thou shalt not be able to make an end of them speedily, lest the beasts of the field increase upon thee. ²³ And the Lord thy God will give them up before thee, and he will bring among them a mighty confusion, until they be destroyed. ²⁴ And he will give their kings into thy hand, and thou shalt destroy their name from under the heavens: no man shall be able to stand up before thee, until thou have destroyed them.

³ The Lord thy God it is who goeth over before thee; he will destroy these nations from before thee, and thou shalt dispossess them: Joshua it is who goeth over before thee, as the Lord hath spoken. ⁴ And the Lord will do unto them as he hath done to Sichon and to ‘Og, the kings of the Emorites, and unto their land, whom he hath destroyed. ⁵ And the Lord will give them up before you; and ye shall do unto them according unto the whole of the commandment which I have commanded you.

¹³ Remember the word which Moses the servant of the Lord commanded you, saying, The Lord your God hath granted you rest, and hath given you this land;

¹⁵ Until the Lord shall have granted your brethren rest, as he hath done to you, and they also have taken possession of the land which the Lord your God giveth them: then shall ye return unto the land of your possession, and possess it, which Moses the servant of the Lord gave you on this side of the Jordan, toward the rising of the sun.

²³ And Joshua’ took the whole land, all just as the Lord had spoken unto Moses; and Joshua gave it for an inheritance unto Israel, according to their divisions by their tribes. And the land rested from war.

⁴ And now the Lord your God hath given rest unto your brethren, as he promised them; therefore now turn yourselves, and get you unto your tents, unto the land of your possession, which Moses the servant of the Lord gave unto you on the other side of the Jordan.

⁹ And the children of Reuben and the children of Gad and the half tribe of Menasseh returned, and departed from the children of Israel from Shiloh, which is in the land of Canaan, to go unto the country of Gil’ad, to the land of their possession, whereof they were possessed, according to the order of the Lord by the hand of Moses.

¹⁹ God is not a man, that he should lie; nor a son of man, that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do it? and hath he spoken, and shall he not fulfill it?

¹⁴ And, behold, I am going this day the way of all the earth; and ye know with all your heart and with all your soul, that not one thing hath failed of all the good things which the Lord your God spoke concerning you: all are come to pass unto you, not one thing thereof hath failed. ¹⁵ But it shall come to pass, that as every good thing is come upon you, which the Lord your God spoke unto you: so will the Lord bring upon you every evil thing, until he have destroyed you from off this good land which the Lord your God hath given unto you.

⁵⁶ Blessed be the Lord, who hath given rest unto his people Israel, in accordance with all that he hath spoken: so that there hath not failed one word of all his good promise, which he spoke by the hand of Moses his servant.
