*
Now Joshua was old ,
advanced in years .
And the LORD said to him : "
You are old ,
advanced in years ,
and there remains very much land yet to be possessed .
*
This is the land that yet remains :
all the territory of the Philistines and all that of the Geshurites ,
*
from Sihor ,
which is east of Egypt ,
as far as the border of Ekron northward (
which is counted as Canaanite );
the five lords of the Philistines--the Gazites ,
the Ashdodites ,
the Ashkelonites ,
the Gittites ,
and the Ekronites ;
also the Avites ;
*
from the south ,
all the land of the Canaanites ,
and Mearah that belongs to the Sidonians as far as Aphek ,
to the border of the Amorites ;
*
the land of the Gebalites ,
and all Lebanon ,
toward the sunrise ,
from Baal Gad below Mount Hermon as far as the entrance to Hamath ;
*
all the inhabitants of the mountains from Lebanon as far as the Brook Misrephoth ,
and all the Sidonians--them I will drive out from before the children of Israel ;
only divide it by lot to Israel as an inheritance ,
as I have commanded you .
*
Now therefore ,
divide this land as an inheritance to the nine tribes and half the tribe of Manasseh ."
*
With the other half-tribe the Reubenites and the Gadites received their inheritance ,
which Moses had given them ,
beyond the Jordan eastward ,
as Moses the servant of the LORD had given them :
*
from Aroer which is on the bank of the River Arnon ,
and the town that is in the midst of the ravine ,
and all the plain of Medeba as far as Dibon ;
*
all the cities of Sihon king of the Amorites ,
who reigned in Heshbon ,
as far as the border of the children of Ammon ;
*
Gilead ,
and the border of the Geshurites and Maachathites ,
all Mount Hermon ,
and all Bashan as far as Salcah ;
*
all the kingdom of Og in Bashan ,
who reigned in Ashtaroth and Edrei ,
who remained of the remnant of the giants ;
for Moses had defeated and cast out these .
*
Nevertheless the children of Israel did not drive out the Geshurites or the Maachathites ,
but the Geshurites and the Maachathites dwell among the Israelites until this day .
*
Only to the tribe of Levi he had given no inheritance ;
the sacrifices of the LORD God of Israel made by fire are their inheritance ,
as He said to them .
*
And Moses had given to the tribe of the children of Reuben an inheritance according to their families .
*
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 plain by Medeba ;
*
Heshbon and all its cities that are in the plain :
Dibon ,
Bamoth Baal ,
Beth Baal Meon ,
*
Jahaza ,
Kedemoth ,
Mephaath ,
*
Kirjathaim ,
Sibmah ,
Zereth Shahar on the mountain of the valley ,
