from Shihor in Egypt unto the borders of Ekron northward, which land was counted to pertain unto the Cananites, even to the five lords of the Philistines: the Gazathites, Ashdothites, Eshkalonites, Gittites, Ekronites, with the Avites,

all the inhabiters of the hill country, from Lebanon unto the hot waters even all the Sidonians. I will cast them out from before the children of Israel, and see that thou in any wise divide it by lot unto the children of Israel to inherit, as I have commanded thee.

from Aroer that lieth on the brim of the river Arnon, with the city in the midst of the river. And all the plain of Medeba unto Dibon;

and all the cities of Sihon, king of the Amorites which reigned in Heshbon, even unto the borders of the children of Ammon;

even all the kingdom of Og in Bashan which reigned in Ashtaroth and Edrei which same remained yet of the rest of the Rephaim. But Moses smote them and destroyed them.

And their coasts were from Aroer that lieth on the bank of the river Arnon, and the city that lieth in the river, and all the plain about Medeba,

Heshbon, and all her towns that lie in the plain: Dibon Bamothbaal and Bethbaalmeon;

Kiriathaim, Sibmah and Zerethshahar in mount Emak;

and all the cities in the plain. And all the kingdom of Sihon king of the Amorites which reigned in Heshbon, whom Moses smote with the lords of Midian, Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur and Reba, the lords of Sihon, and the inhabiters of the country.

And the borders of the children of Reuben was Jordan, with the country that lieth thereon. This is the inheritance of the children of Reuben in their kindreds, with the cities and villages pertaining thereto.

and half Gilead and Ashtaroth, and Edrei, cities of the kingdom of Og in Bashan, which pertain unto the children of Machir the son of Manasseh, and that unto half the children of Machir by their kindreds.

These are they to which Moses gave inheritance in the fields of Moab, on the other side Jordan by Jericho eastward.

And these are the countries which the children inherited in the land of Canaan, unto which Eleazar the priest, and Joshua the son of Nun and the ancient heads of the tribes of the children of Israel,

For Moses had given inheritance unto two tribes and a half on the other side Jordan. But unto the Levites he gave none inheritance among them.

For the children of Joseph were two tribes, Manasseh and Ephraim. And therefore they gave no part unto the Levites in the land, save cities to dwell in and the suburbs of the same, for their beasts and cattle.

As the LORD commanded Moses, even so the children of Israel did when they divided the land.

And the children of Judah came unto Joshua in Gilgal. And Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite said unto him, "Thou knowest what the LORD said unto Moses the man of God, about me and thee in Kadesh Barnea.

Forty years old was I when Moses the servant of the LORD sent me from Kadesh Barnea to spy out the land. And I brought them word again even as I thought in mine heart.

And now behold, the LORD hath kept me lusty, as he said, this forty and five years, even since the LORD spake unto Moses, while the children of Israel wandered in the wilderness. And now see I am this day four score and five years:

and yet am as strong at this time, as I was when Moses sent me: look how strong I was then, so strong I am now, to war and to do all manner of things.

And the lot of the tribe of the children of Judah in their kindreds was the wilderness of Zin that stretched to the coasts of Edom southward, and is the utmost part of the south coasts.

And it went out on the south side of the going up to Akrabbim, and went along to Zin, and ascended up on the south side of Kadesh Barnea, and went along the Hezron and went up to Addar, and set a compass to Karka,

And their east coasts are the salt sea, even unto the edge of Jordan. And their borders in the north quarter were from another point of the sea where Jordan endeth.

and then it compasseth from Baalah westward, unto Seir, and then goeth along unto the side of mount Jearim, otherwise called Chesalon, on the north side thereof; and cometh down to Bethshemesh and goeth to Timnah,

and goeth out on the side of Ekron northward; And then draweth to Shikkeron and goeth along to mount Baalah, and goeth out at Jabneel; and the end of the coasts is the sea.

And the west borders are the great sea and the coasts that lie thereon. And these are the coasts of the children of Judah round about in their kindreds.

And he went up thence, to the inhabiters of Debir, whose name in the old time was Kiriathsepher.

This is the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Judah in their kindreds.

And the cities of the tribe of the children of Judah in all quarters, toward the coasts of Edom southward, were: Kabzeel, Eder, and Jagur;

Lebaoth, Shilhim, Ain, and Rimmon: all these cities are twenty and nine with their villages.

And in the low country they had Eshtaol, Zorah, and Ashnah;

And in the mountains, they had Shamir, Jattir, and Socoh;

And in the wilderness they had Betharabah, Middin and Secacah;

and went out westward to Michmethath on the north side, and compassed eastward unto Taanathshiloh, and past it on the east side unto Janoah,

And their borders went from Tappuah westward unto the river Kanah, and the ends were the sea. This is the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Ephraim in their kindreds,

Notwithstanding, they drave not out the Cananites that dwelt in Gezer: but the Cananites dwelt among the Ephraimites unto this day, and pay tribute.

And the rest of the children of Manasseh received by their kindreds: which were the children of Abiezer; the children of Helek: the children of Asriel: the children of Shechem, the children of Hepher: the children of Shemida. These are the male children of Manasseh the son of Joseph in their kindreds.

which came before Eleazar the priest, and before Joshua the son of Nun, and before the lords, saying, "The LORD commanded Moses to give us an inheritance among our brethren." And he gave them at the mouth of the LORD, an inheritance among the brethren of their fathers.

And there fell ten portions to Manasseh beside the lands of Gilead and Bashan which are on the other side Jordan:

And the coasts of Manasseh reached from Asher to Michmethath that lieth before Shechem and went along on the righthand, even unto the inhabiters of Entappuah,

and the land of Tappuah belonged to Manasseh, which Tappuah lay in the borders between Manasseh and the children of Ephraim.

And the coasts descended unto the river Kanah on whose south side Ephraim hath cities among the cities of Manasseh. For the coasts of Manasseh were on the north side of the river and the ends of them was the sea:

so that the south pertained to Ephraim, and the north to Manasseh, and the sea is his border. And they met together in Asher northward, and in Issachar eastward.

And Manasseh had in Issachar and in Asher, Bethshean, and her towns: and the inhabiters of Dor, with the towns pertaining to the same: and the inhabiters of Endor with the towns of the same: and the inhabiters of Taanach with her towns and the inhabiters of Megiddo with the towns of the same, even three countries:

yet the children of Manasseh could not overcome those cities, but the Cananites began to dwell in the same land.

And the children of Joseph spake unto Joshua, saying, "Why hast thou given us but one lot and one portion to inherit, seeing we be much people, and forasmuch as the LORD hath blessed us so?"

And Joshua answered them, "If ye be much people, then get you up to the wood country, and prepare for yourselves there in the land of the Perezites and of the Rephaim, if mount Ephraim be too narrow for you."

Then the children of Joseph said again, "The hill will not be gotten of us: for all the Cananites that dwell in the low country have chariots of iron, and so have they that inhabit Bethshean, and the towns of the same, and they also that dwell in the valley of Jezreel."

And Joshua answered the house of Joseph, Ephraim and Manasseh, saying, "Ye be much people and have great power and shall not therefore have one lot.

And the whole congregation of the children of Israel came together at Shiloh, and set up the tabernacle of witness there, and the land was in subjection before them.

Divide it into seven parts. For Judah shall abide by their coasts in the south, and the house of Joseph shall stand to their coasts in the north.

And the men arose and went their way. And Joshua charged them that went to describe the land saying, "Hence, and go through the land and describe it, and come again to me hither: and I will cast lots for you before the LORD in Shiloh."

And the men departed, and walked through the land and described it by cities into seven parts in a book, and returned to Joshua unto the host at Shiloh.

And Joshua cast lots for them in Shiloh before the LORD, and there he divided the land unto the children of Israel, to each their portion.

And their north coasts were from Jordan and went up to the side of Jericho on the north side, and went up through the mountains westward, and they ended at the wilderness of Bethaven;

Zela, Haeleph, and the city of the Jebusites, which is Jerusalem; Gibeah, and Kiriathjearim: Fourteen cities with their villages. This is the inheritance of the children of Benjamin in their kindreds.

And the second lot came out unto the tribe of the children of Simeon by their kindreds. And their inheritance fell in the midst of the inheritance of the children of Judah.

And thereto all the villages that lie round about these cities, even unto Baalathbeer and Ramah, southward. This is the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Simeon in their kindreds.

Out of the portion of the children of Judah came the inheritance of the children of Simeon. For the part of the children of Judah was too much for them: and therefore the children of Simeon had their inheritance in the inheritance of them.

and turned from Sarid eastward toward the sun rising unto the border of Chisloth in mount Tabor: and then goeth out to Daberath and goeth up to Japhia;

When they had made an end of dividing the land by her coasts then the children of Israel gave an inheritance unto Joshua the son of Nun among them:

at the mouth of the LORD they gave him the city which he asked, even Timnathserah in mount Ephraim. And he built the city and dwelt therein.

These are the inheritances which Eleazar the priest and Joshua the son of Nun, and the ancient fathers of the tribes of the children of Israel divided by lot in Shiloh before the LORD, in the door of the tabernacle of witness, and so made an end of dividing the country.

And the slayer shall flee unto one of those Cities and shall stand in the entering of the gate of the city and shall show his cause in the ears of the elders of the said city. And they shall take him into the city unto them, and shall give him a place that he may dwell among them.

And when the avenger of blood followeth after him they shall not deliver the slayer unto his hand: because he smote his friend ignorantly, and hated him not before time.

And he shall dwell in the said city until he stand before the congregation in judgment, and until the death of the high priest that shall be in those days. And then shall the slayer return and come unto his own city and unto his own house, and unto the city from whence he fled.'"

And they gave them Kiriatharba of the father of Anak, which is Hebron, in the hill country of Judah, with the suburbs of the same round about it.

and Ain with her suburbs, and Juttah with her suburbs, and Bethshemesh with her suburbs: Nine cities out of those two tribes.

And they gave them the free city of the slayer: Shechem with her suburbs, in mount Ephraim; and Gezer with her suburbs;

And unto the children of Gershon which were of the kindreds of the Levites, they gave out of the other half tribe of Manasseh, the city of refuge for the slayer, Golan in Bashan with her suburbs; Beeshterah with her suburbs: Two cities.

And out of the tribe of Naphtali, the city of refuge for the slayer, Kadesh in Galilee, with her suburbs; Hammothdor, with her suburbs; Kartan with her suburbs: Three cities.
