mkjv@Joshua:18:1 @ And all the congregation of the sons of Israel gathered at Shiloh, and set up the tabernacle of the congregation there. And the land was subdued before them.

mkjv@Joshua:18:2 @ And there remained among the sons of Israel seven tribes which had not yet received their inheritance.

mkjv@Joshua:18:3 @ And Joshua said to the sons of Israel, How long will you fail to go in to possess the land which the LORD God of your fathers has given you?

mkjv@Joshua:18:4 @ Give from among you three men for [each] tribe. And I will send them, and they shall rise and go through the land and map it according to the inheritance of them. And they shall come to me.

mkjv@Joshua:18:5 @ And they shall divide it into seven parts. Judah shall stay within their border on the south, and the house of Joseph shall stay within their borders on the north.

mkjv@Joshua:18:6 @ And you shall map the land [into] seven parts and bring it here to me, so that I may cast lots here for you before the LORD our God.

mkjv@Joshua:18:7 @ But the Levites have no part among you. For the priesthood of the LORD [is] their inheritance. And Gad and Reuben and half the tribe of Manasseh have received their inheritance beyond Jordan on the east, which Moses the servant of the LORD gave them.

mkjv@Joshua:18:8 @ And the men arose and went away. And Joshua charged those who went to map the land, saying, Go and walk through the land, and map it, and come again to me so that I may here cast lots for you before the LORD in Shiloh.

mkjv@Joshua:18:9 @ And the men went and passed through the land, and mapped it by cities into seven parts in a book, and they came to Joshua, to the host at Shiloh.

mkjv@Joshua:18:14 @ And the border was drawn [from there], and went around the corner of the sea southward, from the hill that [is] in front of Beth-horon southward. And its boundary was at Kirjath-baal; it [is] Kirjath-jearim, a city of the sons of Judah. This [was] the west quarter.

mkjv@Joshua:20:4 @ And he shall flee to one of those cities, and shall stand at the entrance of the gate of the city, and shall declare his cause in the ears of the elders of that city. And they shall take him into the city to themselves and make him a place, and he shall live with them.

mkjv@Joshua:20:5 @ And if the avenger of blood pursues him, then they shall not deliver the manslayer into his hand, for he has struck his neighbor without knowing, and did not hate him in past time.

mkjv@Joshua:20:6 @ And he shall live in that city until he stands before the congregation for judgment, until the death of the high priest who is in those days. Then the manslayer shall return and come to his city, and to his house, to the city from where he fled.
