Josh. 13:1‑19:51• 1And Joshua was old, advanced in age, and Jehovah said to him, Thou art old, advanced in age, and there remaineth yet very much land to take possession of.
2This is the land that yet remaineth: all the districts of the Philistines and all the Geshurites,
3from the Shihor, which floweth before Egypt, as far as the borders of Ekron northward, and which is counted to the Canaanite; five lordships of the Philistines: of Gazah, and of Ashdod, of Eshkalon, of Gath, and of Ekron; also the Avvites;
4in the south, the whole land of the Canaanites, and Mearah which belongeth to the Sidonians, unto Aphek, to the border of the Amorites;
5and the land of the Giblites, and all Lebanon, toward the sun-rising, from Baal-Gad at the foot of mount Hermon to the entrance into Hamath;
6all the inhabitants of the hill-country from Lebanon to Misrephoth-maim, all the Sidonians; I will dispossess them from before the children of Israel. Only, partition it by lot to Israel for an inheritance, as I have commanded thee.
7And now divide this land for an inheritance to the nine tribes, and to half the tribe of Manasseh;
8with him the Reubenites and the Gadites have received their inheritance, which Moses gave them, beyond the Jordan eastward, as Moses the servant of Jehovah gave them:
9from Aroer, which is on the bank of the river Arnon, and the city that is in the midst of the ravine, and all the plateau of Medeba to Dibon,
10and all the cities of Sihon the king of the Amorites, who reigned at Heshbon, to the border of the children of Ammon;
11and Gilead, and the border of the Geshurites and Maachathites, and all mount Hermon, and the whole of Bashan to Salcah;
12all the kingdom of Og in Bashan, who reigned at Ashtaroth and at Edrei, who remained of the residue of the giants; and Moses smote them and dispossessed them.
13But the children of Israel did not dispossess the Geshurites nor the Maachathites; but the Geshurites and the Maachathites dwell among the Israelites to this day.
14Only to the tribe of Levi he gave no inheritance: the offerings by fire of Jehovah the God of Israel are their inheritance, as he said to them.
15And Moses gave a portion to the tribe of the children of Reuben according to their families.
16And their territory was from Aroer, which is on the bank of the river Arnon, and the city that is in the midst of the ravine, and all the plateau by Medeba;
17Heshbon, and all her cities that are in the plateau, Dibon, and Bamoth-Baal, and Beth-Baal-meon,
18And Jahzah, and Kedemoth, and Mephaath,
19and Kirjathaim, and Sibmah, and Zereth-shahar in the mountain of the vale,
20and Beth-Peor, and the slopes of Pisgah, and Beth-jeshimoth;
21all the cities of the plateau, and the whole kingdom of Sihon the king of the Amorites, who reigned at Heshbon, whom Moses smote, him and the princes of Midian, Evi, and Rekem, and Zur, and Hur, and Reba, the chiefs of Sihon dwelling in the land.
22And Balaam the son of Beor, the diviner, did the children of Israel kill with the sword among them that were slain by them.
23And the border of the children of Reuben was the Jordan, and its border. This is the inheritance of the children of Reuben according to their families, the cities and their hamlets.
24And Moses gave a portion to the tribe of Gad, to the children of Gad according to their families.
25And their territory was Jaazer, and all the cities of Gilead, and half the land of the children of Ammon, to Aroer which is before Rabbah;
26and from Heshbon to Ramath-Mizpeh, and Betonim; and from Mahanaim to the border of Debir;
27and in the valley, Beth-haram, and Beth-Nimrah, and Succoth, and Zaphon, the rest of the kingdom of Sihon the king of Heshbon, the Jordan and its border, as far as the edge of the sea of Chinnereth beyond the Jordan eastward.
28This is the inheritance of the children of Gad according to their families, the cities and their hamlets.
29And Moses gave a portion to half the tribe of Manasseh; and for half the tribe of the children of Manasseh according to their families:
30their territory was from Mahanaim, all Bashan, the whole kingdom of Og the king of Bashan, and all the villages of Jair, which are in Bashan, sixty cities.
31And half Gilead, and Ashtaroth, and Edrei, the cities of the kingdom of Og in Bashan, belonged to the children of Machir the son of Manasseh, to the one half of the children of Machir according to their families.
32This is that which Moses allotted for inheritance in the plains of Moab, beyond the Jordan of Jericho, eastward.
33But to the tribe of Levi Moses gave no inheritance: Jehovah the God of Israel is their inheritance, as he said to them.
1And this is what the children of Israel inherited in the land of Canaan, which Eleazar the priest, and Joshua the son of Nun, and the chief fathers of the tribes of the children of Israel, allotted for inheritance to them:
2their inheritance was by lot, as Jehovah had commanded by Moses, for the nine tribes, and the half tribe.
3For Moses had given the inheritance of the two tribes and the half tribe beyond the Jordan, but to the Levites he had given no inheritance among them.
4For the children of Joseph were two tribes, Manasseh and Ephraim; and they gave no part to the Levites in the land, save cities to dwell in, and their suburbs for their cattle and for their substance.
5As Jehovah had commanded Moses, so the children of Israel did, and they divided the land.
6Then the children of Judah came near to Joshua in Gilgal, and Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite said to him, Thou knowest the word that Jehovah spoke to Moses the man of God, concerning me and thee, in Kadesh-barnea.
7Forty years old was I when Moses the servant of Jehovah sent me from Kadesh barnea to search out the land; and I brought him word again as it was in my heart.
8And my brethren that had gone up with me made the heart of the people melt; but I wholly followed Jehovah my God.
9And Moses swore on that day, saying, The land whereon thy feet have trodden shall assuredly be thine inheritance, and thy children's for ever! for thou hast wholly followed Jehovah my God.
10And now behold, Jehovah has kept me alive, as he said, these forty-five years, since Jehovah spoke this word to Moses, when Israel wandered in the wilderness; and now behold, I am this day eighty-five years old.
11I am still this day strong, as in the day that Moses sent me: as my strength was then, even so is my strength now, for war, both to go out and to come in.
12And now give me this mountain, of which Jehovah spoke in that day; for thou heardest in that day that Anakim are there, and great fortified cities. If so be Jehovah shall be with me, then I shall dispossess them, as Jehovah said.
13And Joshua blessed him, and gave Hebron to Caleb the son of Jephunneh for an inheritance.
14Hebron therefore became the inheritance of Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite to this day, because he wholly followed Jehovah the God of Israel.
15Now the name of Hebron before was Kirjath-Arba; the great man among the Anakim. And the land rested from war.
1And the lot of the tribe of the children of Judah according to their families was: to the border of Edom, the wilderness of Zin, southward, in the extreme south.
2And their southern border was from the end of the salt sea, from the tongue that turns southward;
3and it went out south of the ascent of Akrabbim, and passed on to Zin, and went up on the south of Kadesh-barnea, and passed to Hezron, and went up toward Addar, and turned toward Karkaah,
4and passed on to Azmon, and went out by the torrent of Egypt; and the border ended at the sea. That shall be your border southward.
5--And the eastern border was the salt sea as far as the end of the Jordan.--And the border on the north side was from the tongue of the salt sea, at the end of the Jordan;
6and the border went up toward Beth-hoglah, and passed north of Beth-Arabah; and the border went up to the stone of Bohan, the son of Reuben;
7and the border went up toward Debir from the valley of Achor, and turned northward to Gilgal, which is opposite to the ascent of Adummim, which is on the south side of the torrent; and the border passed to the waters of En-shemesh, and ended at En-rogel;
8and the border went up to the valley of the son of Hinnom, toward the south side of the Jebusite, that is, Jerusalem; and the border went up to the top of the mountain that is before the valley of Hinnom westward, which is at the end of the valley of Rephaim northward;
9and the border reached along from the top of the mountain toward the spring of the waters of Nephtoah, and went out toward the cities of mount Ephron; and the border reached along to Baalah, that is, Kirjath-jearim;
10and the border turned from Baalah westwards toward mount Seir, and passed toward the side of Har-jearim, that is, Chesalon, northwards, and went down to Beth-shemesh, and passed Timnah.
11And the border went out to the side of Ekron northwards, and the border reached along toward Shicron, and passed mount Baalah, and went toward Jabneel; and the border ended at the sea.
12--And the west border is the great sea and its coast. This is the border of the children of Judah round about, according to their families.
13And to Caleb the son of Jephunneh he gave a portion among the children of Judah according to the commandment of Jehovah to Joshua, the city of Arba, the father of Anak, that is, Hebron.
14And thence Caleb dispossessed the three sons of Anak, Sheshai and Ahiman and Talmai, who were born of Anak.
15And from there he went up against the inhabitants of Debir; now the name of Debir before was Kirjath-sepher.
16And Caleb said, He that smites Kirjath-sepher and takes it, to him will I give Achsah my daughter as wife.
17And Othniel the son of Kenaz, the brother of Caleb, took it; and he gave him Achsah his daughter as wife.
18And it came to pass as she came, that she urged him to ask of her father a field; and she sprang down from the ass. And Caleb said to her, What wouldest thou?
19And she said, Give me a blessing; for thou hast given me a southern land; give me also springs of water. Then he gave her the upper springs and the lower springs.
20This is the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Judah according to their families.
21The cities at the extremity of the tribe of the children of Judah, toward the border of Edom in the south, were: Kabzeel, and Eder, and Jagur,
22and Kinah, and Dimonah, and Adadah,
23and Kedesh, and Hazor, and Jithnan,
24Ziph, and Telem, and Bealoth,
25and Hazor-hadattah, and Kerioth-Hezron, that is Hazor,
26Amam, and Shema, and Molada,
27and Hazar-gaddah, and Heshmon, and Beth-Pelet,
28and Hazar-Shual, and Beer-sheba, and Biziothiah;

38and Dilean, and Mizpeh, and Joktheel,
39Lachish, and Bozkath, and Eglon,
40and Cabbon, and Lahmas, and Chithlish,
41and Gederoth, Beth-Dagon, and Naamah, and Makkedah: sixteen cities and their hamlets.
42Libna, and Ether, and Ashan,
43and Jiphthah, and Ashnah, and Nezib,
44and Keilah, and Achzib, and Mareshah: nine cities and their hamlets.
45Ekron and its dependent villages and its hamlets.
46From Ekron and westward all that are by the side of Ashdod, and their hamlets.
47Ashdod, its dependent villages and its hamlets; Gazah, its dependent villages and its hamlets, as far as the torrent of Egypt, and the great sea and its coast.
48--And in the hill-country: Shamir, and Jattir, and Sochoh,
49and Dannah, and Kirjath-sannah, that is, Debir,
50and Anab, and Eshtemoh, and Anim,
51and Goshen, and Holon, and Giloh: eleven cities and their hamlets.

53and Janum, and Beth-Tappuah, and Aphekah,

60Kirjath-Baal, that is, Kirjath-jearim, and Rabbah: two cities and their hamlets.
61--In the wilderness: Beth-Arabah, Middin, and Secacah,
62and Nibshan, and Ir-Hammelah, and En-gedi: six cities and their hamlets.
63But as for the Jebusites, the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the children of Judah could not dispossess them; and the Jebusites dwell with the children of Judah at Jerusalem to this day.
1And the lot came forth for the children of Joseph from the Jordan of Jericho as far as the waters of Jericho eastwards, to the wilderness which goes up from Jericho to the hill-country of Bethel.
2And the border went from Bethel to Luz, and passed to the border of the Archites to Ataroth,
3and went down westward to the border of the Japhletites, as far as the border of the lower Beth-horon, and to Gezer; and ended at the sea.
4And the children of Joseph, Manasseh and Ephraim, took their inheritance.
5And the border of the children of Ephraim was according to their families; the border of their inheritance eastwards was Ataroth-Addar as far as the upper Beth-horon;
6and the border went forth westwards to Micmethath on the north; and the border turned eastwards to Taanath-Shiloh, and passed by it eastwards to Janohah,
7and went down from Janohah to Ataroth and Naarath, and touched upon Jericho, and went out to the Jordan.
8From Tappuah the border went westwards to the torrent Kanah, and ended at the sea. This is the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Ephraim according to their families,
9with the cities that were set apart for the children of Ephraim in the midst of the inheritance of the children of Manasseh, all the cities and their hamlets.
10But they did not dispossess the Canaanites that dwelt at Gezer; and the Canaanites dwell in the midst of Ephraim to this day, and serve under tribute.
1And the lot came to the tribe of Manasseh (for he was the firstborn of Joseph), to Machir, the firstborn of Manasseh, the father of Gilead, for he was a man of war, and he had Gilead and Bashan.
2There was also a portion for the rest of the children of Manasseh according to their families: for the children of Abiezer, and for the children of Helek, and for the children of Asriel, and for the children of Shechem, and for the children of Hepher, and for the children of Shemida: these are the children of Manasseh, the son of Joseph, the males, according to their families.
3And Zelophehad, the son of Hepher, the son of Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh, had no sons, but daughters; and these are the names of his daughters: Mahlah, and Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah.
4And they came near before Eleazar the priest, and before Joshua the son of Nun, and before the princes, saying, Jehovah commanded Moses to give us an inheritance among our brethren. And he gave them according to the commandment of Jehovah an inheritance among the brethren of their father.
5And there fell ten portions to Manasseh, besides the land of Gilead and Bashan, which are beyond the Jordan.
6For the daughters of Manasseh received an inheritance among his sons; and the rest of Manasseh's sons had the land of Gilead.
7And the territory of Manasseh was from Asher to Micmethath, which is before Shechem, and the border went on the right hand toward the inhabitants of En-Tappuah.
8Manasseh had the land of Tappuah; but Tappuah on the border of Manasseh belonged to the children of Ephraim.
9And the border descended to the torrent Kanah, south of the torrent. These cities were Ephraim's among the cities of Manasseh. And the territory of Manasseh was on the north side of the torrent, and ended at the sea.
10Southward it was Ephraim's, and northward it was Manasseh's, and the sea was his border. And they touched upon Asher on the north, and upon Issachar on the east.
11And Manasseh had in Issachar and in Asher, Beth-shean and its dependent villages, and Ibleam and its dependent villages, and the inhabitants of Dor and its dependent villages, and the inhabitants of En-Dor and its dependent villages, and the inhabitants of Taanach and its dependent villages, and the inhabitants of Megiddo and its dependent villages, the three hilly regions.
12But the children of Manasseh could not dispossess the inhabitants of those cities; and the Canaanites would dwell in that land.
13And it came to pass when the children of Israel were become strong, that they made the Canaanites tributary; but they did not utterly dispossess them.
14And the children of Joseph spoke to Joshua, saying, Why hast thou given me as inheritance one lot and one portion, seeing I am a great people, forasmuch as Jehovah has blessed me hitherto?
15And Joshua said unto them, If thou art a great people, then get thee up to the wood, and cut down for thyself there in the land of the Perizzites and of the giants, if the hill-country of Ephraim is too narrow for thee.
16And the children of Joseph said, The hill-country will not be enough for us; and all the Canaanites that dwell in the land of the valley have chariots of iron, those that are of Beth-shean and its dependent villages, and those that are in the valley of Jizreel.
17And Joshua spoke to the house of Joseph, to Ephraim and to Manasseh, saying, Thou art a great people, and hast great power: thou shalt not have one lot only,
18but the hill-country shall be thine, as it is a wood, thou shalt cut it down, and its outgoings shall be thine; for thou shalt dispossess the Canaanites, though they have iron chariots; for they are powerful.
1And the whole assembly of the children of Israel gathered together at Shiloh, and set up the tent of meeting there; and the land was subdued before them.
2And there remained among the children of Israel seven tribes whose inheritance had not been distributed to them.
3And Joshua said to the children of Israel, How long will ye shew yourselves slack to go to take possession of the land which Jehovah the God of your fathers hath given you?
4Provide you three men for a tribe; that I may send them, and they shall rise and go through the land, and describe it according to the proportion of their inheritance, and they shall come to me.
5And they shall divide it into seven portions. Judah shall remain in their border on the south, and the house of Joseph shall remain in their border on the north;
6and *ye* shall describe the land into seven portions, and bring the description hither to me, and I will cast lots for you here before Jehovah our God.
7But the Levites have no portion among you, for the priesthood of Jehovah is their inheritance. And Gad, and Reuben, and half the tribe of Manasseh have received their inheritance beyond the Jordan on the east, which Moses the servant of Jehovah gave them.
8And the men arose and went away. And Joshua charged them that went to describe the land, saying, Go and walk through the land, and describe it, and come again to me, and I will cast lots for you here before Jehovah in Shiloh.
9And the men went and passed through the land, and described it by cities into seven portions, in a book, and they came to Joshua, to the camp at Shiloh.
10And Joshua cast lots for them in Shiloh before Jehovah. And there Joshua divided the land to the children of Israel according to their divisions.
11And the lot of the tribe of the children of Benjamin came up according to their families. And the territory of their lot came forth between the children of Judah and the children of Joseph.
12And their border on the north side was from the Jordan; and the border went up to the side of Jericho on the north, and went up to the mountain westward; and ended at the wilderness of Beth-Aven;
13and the border passed on from thence toward Luz, to the south side of Luz, which is Bethel: and the border went down to Ataroth-Addar, near the hill that is on the south of the lower Beth-horon.
14--And the border reached along and turned on the west side, southward from the hill that is before Beth-horon southward; and ended at Kirjath-Baal, which is Kirjath-jearim, a city of the children of Judah: this is the west side.
15--And the south side was from the extreme end of Kirjath-jearim, and the border went out on the west, and went out to the spring of the waters of Nephtoah.
16And the border went down to the end of the mountain that is before the valley of the son of Hinnom, which is in the valley of Rephaim on the north, and went down the valley of Hinnom, to the side of the Jebusite on the south, and went down to En-rogel;
17and it reached along on the north, and went forth to En-shemesh, and went forth towards Geliloth, which is opposite to the ascent of Adummim, and went down to the stone of Bohan, the son of Reuben,
18and passed along towards the side opposite to Arabah northwards, and went down to Arabah;
19and the border passed on to the side of Beth-hoglah on the north, and the border ended at the tongue of the salt sea northward, at the south end of the Jordan: this is the southern border.
20--And the Jordan borders it on the east side.--This was the inheritance of the children of Benjamin, according to its borders round about, according to their families.
21And the cities of the tribe of the children of Benjamin according to their families were: Jericho, and Beth-hoglah, and Emek-Keziz,
22and Beth-Arabah, and Zemaraim, and Bethel,
23and Avvim, and Parah, and Ophrah,
24and Chephar-haammonai, and Ophni, and Geba: twelve cities and their hamlets;

26and Mizpeh, and Chephirah, and Mozah,
27and Rekem, and Jirpeel, and Tharalah,
28and Zelah, Eleph, and Jebusi, that is, Jerusalem, Gibeah, Kirjath: fourteen cities and their hamlets. This was the inheritance of the children of Benjamin according to their families.
1And the second lot came forth to Simeon, for the tribe of the children of Simeon according to their families; and their inheritance was within the inheritance of the children of Judah.
2And they had in their inheritance Beer-sheba, and Sheba, and Moladah,
3and Hazar-Shual, and Balah, and Ezem,
4and Eltolad, and Bethul, and Hormah,
5and Ziklag, and Beth-marcaboth, and Hazar-susah,
6and Beth-lebaoth, and Sharuhen: thirteen cities and their hamlets;
7Ain, Rimmon, and Ether, and Ashan: four cities and their hamlets;
8and all the hamlets that are round these cities to Baalath-beer, that is Ramah of the south. This is the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Simeon according to their families.
9Out of the lot of the children of Judah was the inheritance of the children of Simeon; for the portion of the children of Judah was too great for them, and the children of Simeon inherited within their inheritance.
10And the third lot came up for the children of Zebulun according to their families. And the border of their inheritance was unto Sarid;
11and their border went up westwards, and to Marealah, and reached to Dabbesheth, and reached to the torrent that is before Jokneam;
12and turned from Sarid eastward, toward the sun-rising, to the border of Chisloth-Tabor, and went out to Dabrath, and went up to Japhia;
13and from thence it passed eastward toward the sun-rising to Gath-Hepher, to Eth-kazin, and went out to Rimmon which reaches to Neah;
14and the border turned round it northwards to Hannathon: and ended in the valley of Jiphthah-el; …
15and Kattath, and Nahalal, and Shimron, and Jidalah, and Beth-lehem: twelve cities and their hamlets.
16This was the inheritance of the children of Zebulun according to their families, these cities and their hamlets.
17The fourth lot came forth to Issachar, for the children of Issachar according to their families.
18And their territory was toward Jizreel, and Chesulloth, and Shunem,
19and Hapharaim, and Shion, and Anaharath,
20and Rabbith, and Kishion, and Ebez,
21and Remeth, and En-gannim, and En-haddah, and Beth-pazzez;
22and the border reached to Tabor, and Shahazimah, and Beth-shemesh; and their border ended at the Jordan: sixteen cities and their hamlets.
23This was the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Issachar according to their families, the cities and their hamlets.
24And the fifth lot came forth for the tribe of the children of Asher according to their families.
25And their territory was Helkath, and Hali, and Beten, and Acshaph,
26and Allammelech, and Amead, and Mishal; and the border reached to Carmel westwards, and to Shihor-libnath,
27and turned towards the sun-rising to Beth-Dagon, and reached to Zebulun, and to the valley of Jiphthah-el northward to Beth-emek and Neiel, and went out to Cabul on the left,
28and Ebron, and Rehob, and Hammon, and Kanah, as far as great Zidon;
29and the border turned to Ramah, and as far as the fortified city of Tyre; and the border turned to Hosah; and ended at the sea by the tract of country of Achzib;
30and Ummah, and Aphek, and Rehob: twenty-two cities and their hamlets.
31This was the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Asher according to their families, these cities and their hamlets.
32The sixth lot came forth to the children of Naphtali, for the children of Naphtali according to their families.
33And their border was from Heleph, from the oak of Zaanannim; and Adami-nekeb and Jabneel to Lakkum; and ended at the Jordan;
34and the border turned westwards to Aznoth-Tabor, and went out from thence to Hukkok, and reached to Zebulun on the south, and reached to Asher on the west, and to Judah upon Jordan towards the sun-rising.
35And the fortified cities were Ziddim, Zer, and Hammath, Rakkath, and Chinnereth,
36and Adamah, and Ramah, and Hazor,
37and Kedesh, and Edrei, and En-Hazor,
38and Jiron, and Migdal-el, Horem, and Beth-anath, and Beth-shemesh: nineteen cities and their hamlets.
39This was the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Naphtali according to their families, the cities and their hamlets.
40The seventh lot came forth for the tribe of the children of Dan according to their families.
41And the territory of their inheritance was Zoreah, and Eshtaol, and Ir-shemesh,

44and El-tekeh, and Gibbethon, and Baalath,
45and Jehud, and Beneberak, and Gath-Rimmon,
46and Me-jarkon, and Rakkon, with the border over against Japho.
47And the border of the children of Dan ended with these; and the children of Dan went up and fought against Leshem, and took it, and smote it with the edge of the sword, and took possession of it, and dwelt in it, and called Leshem, Dan, after the name of Dan their father.
48This was the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Dan according to their families, these cities and their hamlets.
49And they ended dividing the land for inheritance according to its borders. And the children of Israel gave an inheritance to Joshua the son of Nun among them.
50According to the word of Jehovah they gave him the city that he asked, Timnath serah in the hill-country of Ephraim; and he built the city, and dwelt in it.
51These were the inheritances, which Eleazar the priest, and Joshua the son of Nun, and the chief fathers of the tribes of the children of Israel, distributed by lot in Shiloh before Jehovah, at the entrance of the tent of meeting. And they ended dividing the land. (Josh. 13:1‑19:51)
