²⁷ He sent to those who were in Beth-el, and in Ramah of the South, and in Jattir;

⁴⁸ And in the hill-country, Shamir, and Jattir, and Socoh;

⁸ And all the unwalled places round about these towns as far as Baalath-beer-ramah to the south. This is the heritage of the tribe of Simeon by their families.

¹⁹ And he gave that place the name of Beth-el, but before that time the town was named Luz.

¹⁴ And Jattir with its grass-lands, and Eshtemoa with its grass-lands;

²² And the family of Joseph went up against Beth-el, and the Lord was with them.

²³ So they sent men to make a search round Beth-el. (Now the name of the town in earlier times was Luz.)

² Now Joshua sent men from Jericho to Ai, which is by the side of Beth-aven, on the east side of Beth-el, and said to them, Go up and make a search through the land. And the men went up and saw how Ai was placed.

² And it goes out from Beth-el to Luz, and on as far as the limit of the Archites to Ataroth;

²⁹ And he put one in Beth-el and the other in Dan.
