As for the rest of the tribes, from the east side unto the west side, Benjamin shall have a portion.
Now for the other tribes, Benjamin gets their slice of land stretching all the way from the eastern border to the western border.
Everyone gets their place in God's plan, even when it's just one line in the blueprint.
