Deuteronomy 19

Amplified Bible, 2015 (AMP)

Switch Version:

¹ Then the border turned to Ramah, [reaching] to the fortified city of Tyre; and it turned to Hosah, and it ended at the [Mediterranean] sea at the region of Achzib.

² Included were Ummah, and Aphek and Rehob; twenty-two cities with their villages.

³ This was the inheritance of the tribe of the sons of Asher according to their families, these cities with their villages.

⁴ The sixth lot fell to [the tribe of] the sons of Naphtali according to their families.

⁵ Their border ran from Heleph, from the oak in Zaanannim and Adami-nekeb and Jabneel, as far as Lakkum, and it ended at the Jordan.

⁶ Then the border turned westward to Aznoth-tabor and went from there to Hukkok; and it reached Zebulun on the south and reached Asher on the west, and to Judah toward the east at the Jordan.

⁷ The fortified cities were Ziddim, Zer, and Hammath, Rakkath and Chinnereth,

⁸ and Adamah and Ramah and Hazor,

⁹ and Kedesh and Edrei and En-hazor,

¹⁰ and Yiron and Migdal-el, Horem and Beth-anath and Beth-shemesh; nineteen cities with their villages.

¹¹ This was the inheritance of the tribe of the sons of Naphtali according to their families, the cities and their villages.

¹² The seventh lot fell to the tribe of the sons of Dan according to their families.

¹³ The territory of their inheritance included Zorah and Eshtaol and Ir-shemesh,

¹⁴ and Shaalabbin and Aijalon and Ithlah,

¹⁵ and Elon and Timnah and Ekron,

¹⁶ and Eltekeh and Gibbethon and Baalath,

¹⁷ and Jehud and Bene-berak and Gath-rimmon,

¹⁸ and Me-jarkon and Rakkon, with the territory opposite Joppa.

¹⁹ The territory of the sons of Dan[2] went beyond these; so the sons of Dan went up to fight against Leshem (Laish) and captured it. Then they struck it with the edge of the sword and took possession of it and settled there [between the tribes of Naphtali and Manasseh]; they[3] renamed Leshem, Dan, after the name of their father (ancestor) Dan.

²⁰ This was the inheritance of the tribe of the sons of Dan according to their families (clans), these cities with their villages.

²¹ When they had finished dividing the land for inheritance by its borders, the Israelites gave an inheritance among them to Joshua the son of Nun.
