And as the days were being fulfilled for Him to be taken up, He steadfastly set His face to go to  ¹Jerusalem.

And He sent messengers before His face. And they went and entered into a village of the Samaritans to prepare for Him.

And they did not receive Him, because His face was set to go to Jerusalem.

And seeing this, the disciples James and John said, Lord, do You want us to  ¹command fire to come down from heaven and consume  ²them?

But turning, He rebuked them  ¹and said,  ²You do not know of what kind of spirit you are.

 ¹The Son of Man has not come to destroy men's  ²lives but to save them. And they went into another village.

And as they went along the road,  ¹someone said to Him, I will follow You wherever You go.

And Jesus said to him, The foxes have holes, and the birds of heaven have roosts, but the Son of Man does  ¹not have a place where He may lay His head.

And He said to  ¹another, Follow Me. But he said, Lord, permit me to go first and bury my father.

But He said to him, Let the  ¹dead bury their own dead, but you go and  ²announce the kingdom of God everywhere.

And  ¹another also said, I will follow You, Lord; but first permit me to say farewell to those in my house.

But Jesus said to him, No one who puts his hand on the  ¹plow and looks behind is fit for the kingdom of God.

And the lot for the children of Joseph went from the Jordan at Jericho, east of the waters of Jericho, to the wilderness, going up from Jericho into the hill country to Bethel,

And went from Bethel to Luz, and passed on to the border of the Archites at Ataroth,

And went down westward to the border of the Japhletites, to the border of Lower Beth-horon and to Gezer; and its end was the sea.

And the children of Joseph, Manasseh and Ephraim, received their inheritance.

And the border of the children of Ephraim according to their families was thus: The border for their inheritance on the east was from Ataroth-addar to Upper Beth-horon;

And the border went to the sea. On the north was Michmethath, and the border went around eastward to Taanath-shiloh, and passed by it to the east of Janoah,

And went down from Janoah to Ataroth, then to Naarah, and reached Jericho, and went to the Jordan.

From Tappuah the border went westward to the brook of Kanah; and its end was the sea. This is the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Ephraim according to their families,

Together with the cities that were set apart for the children of Ephraim in the midst of the inheritance of the children of Manasseh, all the cities with their villages.

Yet they did not dispossess the Canaanites who dwelt in Gezer, but the Canaanites dwell in the midst of Ephraim to this day and have become forced labor.

And this was the lot for the tribe of Manasseh, for he was Joseph's firstborn. To Machir, the firstborn of Manasseh, the father of Gilead, Gilead and Bashan had been given, since he was a man of war.

Therefore the lot was for the rest of the children of Manasseh according to their families: for the children of Abiezer and for the children of Helek and for the children of Asriel and for the children of Shechem and for the children of Hepher and for the children of Shemida; these were the male children of Manasseh the son of Joseph according to their families.

But Zelophehad the son of Hepher, the son of Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh, had no sons, but  ¹daughters. And these are the names of his daughters: Mahlah and Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah.

And they came before Eleazar the priest and before Joshua the son of Nun and before the leaders, saying, Jehovah commanded Moses to give us an inheritance among our brothers. Therefore he gave them an inheritance among their father's brothers according to the commandment of Jehovah.

And ten portions fell to Manasseh, besides the land of Gilead and Bashan, which is across the Jordan,

Because the daughters of Manasseh received an inheritance among his sons. And the land of Gilead belonged to the rest of the children of Manasseh.

And the border of Manasseh was from Asher to Michmethath, which was opposite Shechem; and the border went south to the inhabitants of En-tappuah.

The land of Tappuah belonged to Manasseh, but Tappuah, on the border of Manasseh, belonged to the children of Ephraim.

And the border went down to the brook of Kanah. These cities to the south of the brook belonged to Ephraim, among the cities of Manasseh; and the border of Manasseh was to the north of the brook, and its end was the sea.

To the south was Ephraim's, and to the north was Manasseh's, and the sea was his border. And they touched Asher on the north and Issachar on the east.

And to Manasseh there belonged in Issachar and Asher, Beth-shean and its towns, and Ibleam and its towns, and the inhabitants of Dor and its towns, and the inhabitants of En-dor and its towns, and the inhabitants of Taanach and its towns, and the inhabitants of Megiddo and its towns (the third is Napheth).

Yet the children of Manasseh could not dispossess these cities, but the Canaanites persisted in dwelling in this land.

And when the children of Israel became strong, they made the Canaanites forced labor; but they did not utterly dispossess them.

Then the children of Joseph spoke to Joshua, saying, Why have you given me an inheritance of only one lot and one portion, although I am still a numerous people, whom Jehovah has thus far blessed?

And Joshua said to them, If you are a numerous people, go up to the forest, and cut out land there for yourself in the land of the Perizzites and the Rephaim; since the hill country of Ephraim is too narrow for you.

And the children of Joseph said, The hill country is not enough for us; and all the Canaanites who dwell in the land of the valley have chariots of iron, both those of Beth-shean and its towns and those in the valley of Jezreel.

And Joshua spoke to the house of Joseph, to Ephraim and Manasseh, saying, You are a numerous people, and you have great strength; you shall not have one lot only,

But the hill country shall be yours. Though it is a forest, you shall cut it down, and its end will be yours; for you shall dispossess the Canaanites, though they have chariots of iron and though they are strong.

And the whole assembly of the children of Israel gathered together at Shiloh, and they set up the Tent of Meeting there; and the land was subdued before them.

And among the children of Israel there remained seven tribes whose inheritance had not been divided to them.

And Joshua said to the children of Israel, How long will you be slack about going to take possession of the land that Jehovah, the God of your fathers, has given you?

Appoint three men for each tribe, and I will send them out. And they shall rise up and go through the land, and write a description of it with a view to its being their inheritance; and they shall come to me.

And they shall divide it into seven portions: Judah shall stay at his border on the south, and the house of Joseph shall stay at their border on the north.

And you shall describe the land in seven portions and bring the description here to me, then I will  ¹cast lots for you here before Jehovah our God.

But the Levites shall have no portion among you, for the priesthood of Jehovah is their inheritance. And Gad and Reuben and the half-tribe of Manasseh received their inheritance across the Jordan eastward, which Moses the servant of Jehovah had given to them.

And the men rose up and went; and Joshua commanded those who went to describe the land, saying, Go and walk through the land, and describe it; then return to me, and I will cast lots for you before Jehovah here in Shiloh.

So the men went, and they passed through the land and described it by cities into seven portions in a book. Then they came to Joshua at the camp at Shiloh.

And Joshua cast lots for them in Shiloh before Jehovah. And there Joshua divided the land to the children of Israel according to their divisions.

And the lot of the tribe of the children of Benjamin came out, according to their families. And the border of their lot went between the children of Judah and the children of Joseph.

And their border on the northern side was from the Jordan, and the border went up alongside Jericho on the north, and went up through the hill country westward, and its end was at the wilderness of Beth-aven.

And from there the border passed to Luz, on the southern side of Luz (this is Bethel); and the border went down to Ataroth-addar, at the mountain which is south of Lower Beth-horon.

And the border turned from there and went around the west side southward, from the mountain that is to the south of Beth-horon; and its end was at Kiriath-baal (this is Kiriath-jearim), a city of the children of Judah. This was the west side.

The south side was from the limit of Kiriath-jearim, and the border went from the west and went to the fountain of the waters of Nephtoah;

And the border went down to the limit of the mountain that is before the  ¹Valley of Ben-hinnom, which is north of the valley of the Rephaim; and it went down into the Valley of Hinnom, to the southern side of the Jebusite slope, and went down to En-rogel,

And turned north, and went to En-shemesh, and went to Geliloth, which is opposite the ascent of Adummim; and it went down to the stone of Bohan the son of Reuben;

And it passed by the side before the Arabah northward, and went down to the Arabah;

And the border passed by the northern side of Beth-hoglah, and the end of the border was at the northern bay of the Salt Sea at the south end of the Jordan. This was the southern border.

And the Jordan borders it on the east side. This was the inheritance of the children of Benjamin according to their families, according to its borders all around.

And the cities of the tribe of the children of Benjamin according to their families were Jericho and Beth-hoglah and Emek-keziz

And Beth-arabah and Zemaraim and Bethel

And Avvim and Parah and Ophrah

And Chephar-ammoni and Ophni and Geba: twelve cities with their villages.

Gibeon and Ramah and Beeroth

And Mizpeh and Chephirah and Mozah

And Rekem and Irpeel and Taralah

And Zelah, Haeleph, and that of the Jebusite (this is  ¹Jerusalem), Gibeath, Kiriath: fourteen cities with their villages. This was the inheritance of the children of Benjamin according to their families.
