- 他們的北界、是從約但河起、往上貼近耶利哥的北邊、又往西通過山地、直到伯亞文的曠野。
- 從那裡往南接連到路斯、貼近路斯、(路斯就是伯特利)又下到亞他綠亞達、靠近下伯和崙南邊的山.
- 從那裡往西、又轉向南、從伯和崙南對面的山、直達到猶大人的城基列巴力、(基列巴力就是基列耶琳)這是西界。
- 南界、是從基列耶琳的儘邊起、往西達到尼弗多亞的水源.

- Now the lot of the tribe of the sons of Benjamin came up according to their families, and the territory of their lot lay between the sons of Judah and the sons of Joseph.
- Their border on the north side was from the Jordan, then the border went up to the side of Jericho on the north, and went up through the hill country westward, and it ended at the wilderness of Beth-aven.
- From there the border continued to Luz, to the side of Luz (that is, Bethel) southward; and the border went down to Ataroth-addar, near the hill which lies on the south of lower Beth-horon.
- The border extended from there and turned round on the west side southward, from the hill which lies before Beth-horon southward; and it ended at Kiriath-baal (that is, Kiriath-jearim), a city of the sons of Judah. This was the west side.
- Then the south side was from the edge of Kiriath-jearim, and the border went westward and went to the fountain of the waters of Nephtoah.
