* And 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 . * This is the land that yet remaineth : all the districts of the Philistines and all the Geshurites , * from 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 ; * in the south , the whole land of the Canaanites , and Mearah which [belongeth ] to the Sidonians , unto Aphek , to the border of the Amorites ; * and 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 ; * all 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 . * And now divide this land for an inheritance to the nine tribes , and to half the tribe of Manasseh ; * with 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 : * 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 of Medeba to Dibon , * and all the cities of Sihon the king of the Amorites , who reigned at Heshbon , to the border of the children of Ammon ; * and Gilead , and the border of the Geshurites and Maachathites , and all mount Hermon , and the whole of Bashan to Salcah ; * all 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 . * But 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 . * Only 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 . * And Moses gave [a portion ] to the tribe of the children of Reuben according to their families . * And 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 ; * Heshbon , and all her cities that are in the plateau , Dibon , and Bamoth-Baal , and Beth-Baal-meon , * And Jahzah , and Kedemoth , and Mephaath , * and Kirjathaim , and Sibmah , and Zereth-shahar in the mountain of the vale , * and Beth-Peor , and the slopes of Pisgah , and Beth-jeshimoth ; * all 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 . * And Balaam the son of Beor , the diviner , did the children of Israel kill with the sword among them that were slain by them . * And 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 . * And Moses gave [a portion ] to the tribe of Gad , to the children of Gad according to their families . * And 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 ; * and from Heshbon to Ramath-Mizpeh , and Betonim ; and from Mahanaim to the border of Debir ; * and 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 . * This is the inheritance of the children of Gad according to their families , the cities and their hamlets . * And Moses gave [a portion ] to half the tribe of Manasseh ; and for half the tribe of the children of Manasseh according to their families : * their 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 . * And 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 . * This is that which Moses allotted for inheritance in the plains of Moab , beyond the Jordan of Jericho , eastward . * But to the tribe of Levi Moses gave no inheritance : Jehovah the God of Israel is their inheritance , as he said to them .
