| 9. Formal Translation From the portion of the sons of Judah came the inheritance of the sons of Simeon, for the portion of the sons of Judah was more abundant than they needed; therefore the sons of Simeon inherited amidst their inheritance. |
| 9. Dynamic Translation Simeon’s territory was taken from Judah’s allotment, because Judah’s share was greater than they needed; so Simeon’s tribe took possession within Judah’s territory. |
