Modern English Version

The Residents Outside Jerusalem

²⁵ For the villages located by their fields, some of the people of Judah lived at Kiriath Arba and its villages, others at Dibon and its villages, or at Jekabzeel and its villages, ²⁶ as well as at Jeshua, at Moladah, and at Beth Pelet, ²⁷ and at Hazar Shual, and at Beersheba and its villages, ²⁸ and at Ziklag, at Mekonah and its villages, ²⁹ and at En Rimmon, at Zorah, at Jarmuth, ³⁰ Zanoah, Adullam and their villages, at Lachish and its fields, and at Azekah and its villages. So they lived from Beersheba as far as the Valley of Hinnom.

³¹ Some of the Benjamites settled from Geba onward, at Mikmash, Aija, and Bethel and their villages, ³² at Anathoth, Nob, Ananiah, ³³ Hazor, Ramah, Gittaim, ³⁴ Hadid, Zeboim, Neballat, ³⁵ Lod, and Ono, the valley of craftsmen.

³⁶ From the Levites, some divisions in Judah belonged to Benjamin.
