5 and Tsiqlag̅, and Bĕyth Markaḇoth, and Ḥatsar Susah,
6 and Bĕyth Leḇa’oth, and Sharuḥen – thirteen cities and their villages.
7 Ayin, Rimmon, and Ether, and Ashan – four cities and their villages;
8 and all the villages that were all around these cities as far as Ba‛alath Be’ĕr, Ramath Neg̅eḇ. This was the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Shim‛on for their clans.
9 The inheritance of the children of Shim‛on was out of the portion of the children of Yehuḏah, for the portion of the children of Yehuḏah was too much for them. So the children of Shim‛on had their inheritance within their inheritance.
