9So they gave from the tribe of the children of Judah and from the tribe of the children of Simeon these cities which are 1designated by name, 10which were for the children of Aaron, one of the families of the Kohathites, who were of the children of Levi; for the lot was theirs first. 11lAnd they gave them 2Kirjath Arba (Arba was the father of mAnak), nwhich is Hebron, in the mountains of Judah, with the common-land surrounding it. 12But othe fields of the city and its villages they gave to Caleb the son of Jephunneh as his possession.

13Thus pto the children of Aaron the priest they gave qHebron with its common-land (a city of refuge for the slayer), rLibnah with its common-land, 14sJattir with its common-land, tEshtemoa with its common-land, 15uHolon with its common-land, vDebir with its common-land, 16wAin with its common-land, xJuttah with its common-land, and yBeth Shemesh with its common-land: nine cities from those two tribes; 17and from the tribe of Benjamin, zGibeon with its common-land, aGeba with its common-land, 18Anathoth with its common-land, and bAlmon with its common-land: four cities. 19All the cities of the children of Aaron, the priests, were thirteen cities with their common-lands.
