'Nine' in the Bible

Now therefore divide this land for an inheritance unto the nine tribes, and the half tribe of Manasseh,

By lot was their inheritance, as the LORD commanded by the hand of Moses, for the nine tribes, and for the half tribe.

And Lebaoth, and Shilhim, and Ain, and Rimmon: all the cities are twenty and nine, with their villages:

And Keilah, and Achzib, and Mareshah; nine cities with their villages:

And Humtah, and Kirjatharba, which is Hebron, and Zior; nine cities with their villages:

And Ain with her suburbs, and Juttah with her suburbs, and Bethshemesh with her suburbs; nine cities out of those two tribes.
