For there was a command from the [Persian] king regarding the singers, as to their daily task. Pethahiah the son of Meshezabel, of the sons of Zerah the son of Judah, was the king’s representative in all matters concerning the people.
As for the villages with their fields, some sons (descendants) of Judah lived in Kiriath-arba and its towns, Dibon and its towns, and Jekabzeel and its villages, in Jeshua, in Moladah, in Beth-pelet, in Hazar-shual and in Beersheba and its towns, in Ziklag and in Meconah and its towns, in En-rimmon, in Zorah, and in Jarmuth, Zanoah, Adullam, and their villages, Lachish and its fields, and Azekah and its towns. So they camped from Beersheba as far as the Hinnom Valley. The sons (descendants) of Benjamin also lived from Geba onward, at Michmash, Aija, Bethel and its towns, at Anathoth, Nob, Ananiah, Hazor, Ramah, Gittaim, Hadid, Zeboim, Neballat, Lod, and Ono, the Valley of the Craftsmen. And certain divisions of the Levites in Judah belonged to Benjamin.
