The (A)east border was the Salt Sea, as far as the [a]mouth of the Jordan. And the (B)border of the north side was from the bay of the sea at the [b]mouth of the Jordan. Then the border went up to Beth-hoglah, and continued on the north of Beth-arabah, and the border went up to the stone of Bohan the son of Reuben. The border went up to Debir from (C)the valley of Achor, and turned northward toward Gilgal which is opposite the ascent of Adummim, which is on the south of the valley; and the border continued to the waters of En-shemesh and [c]it ended at En-rogel. Then the border went up the valley of Ben-hinnom to the slope of the (D)Jebusite on the south (that is, Jerusalem); and the border went up to the top of the mountain which is before the valley of Hinnom to the west, which is at the end of the valley of Rephaim toward the north. From the top of the mountain the border curved to the spring of the waters of Nephtoah and proceeded to the cities of Mount Ephron, then the border curved to (E)Baalah (that is, (F)Kiriath-jearim).
