וְצֵלַע הָאֶלֶף וְהַיְבוּסִי הִיא יְרֽוּשָׁלִַם גִּבְעַת קִרְיַת עָרִים אַרְבַּֽע-עֶשְׂרֵה וְחַצְרֵיהֶן זֹאת נַֽחֲלַת בְּנֵֽי-בִנְיָמִן לְמִשְׁפְּחֹתָֽם׃
And Zelah, Eleph, and Jebusi, which is Jerusalem, Gibeath, and Kirjath; fourteen cities with their villages. This is the inheritance of the children of Benjamin according to their families.
וַיִּקְבְּרוּ אֶת-עַצְמוֹת-שָׁאוּל וִיהוֹנָֽתָן-בְּנוֹ בְּאֶרֶץ בִּנְיָמִן בְּצֵלָע בְּקֶבֶר קִישׁ אָבִיו וַֽיַּעֲשׂוּ כֹּל אֲשֶׁר-צִוָּה הַמֶּלֶךְ וַיֵּֽעָתֵר אֱלֹהִים לָאָרֶץ אַֽחֲרֵי-כֵֽן׃
