rotherham@Joshua:1:1 @ And it came to pass, after the death of Moses the servant of Yahweh, that Yahweh spake unto Joshua son of Nun, the attendant of Moses, saying:

rotherham@Joshua:1:13 @ Remember the word which Moses the servant of Yahweh commanded you, saying, Yahweh your God, is granting you rest, and doth give you this land.

rotherham@Joshua:1:14 @ Your wives, your little ones, and your cattle, shall remain in the land which Moses hath given you over the Jordan, but, ye, shall pass over, armed, before your brethren, all ye mighty men of valour, and shall help them;

rotherham@Joshua:2:1 @ Then did Joshua son of Nun, send out from The Acacias, two men to spy out silently, saying, Go view the land, and Jericho. So they came, and entered the house of a harlot, whose name was Rahab, and lay there.

rotherham@Joshua:2:2 @ And it was told the king of Jericho, saying, Lo! men, have come in hither to-night of the sons of Israel to search out the land.

rotherham@Joshua:2:3 @ So the king of Jericho sent unto Rahab, saying, Bring forth the men that are come in unto thee who have entered thy house, for, to search out all the land, have they come.

rotherham@Joshua:2:4 @ And the woman took the two men and hid them, and said: Even so, the men did come in unto me, but I knew not from whence they were;

rotherham@Joshua:2:5 @ and it came to pass, as the gate was about to be shut in the darkness, that, the men, went out, I know not whither the men went, pursue them quickly for ye shall overtake them.

rotherham@Joshua:2:7 @ So, the men, pursued them by way of the Jordan unto the fords, the gate being shut as soon as they who pursued them had gone forth.

rotherham@Joshua:2:9 @ and said unto the men, I know that Yahweh hath given unto you the land, and that the terror of you hath fallen upon us, and that all the inhabitants of the land, have melted away, from before you.

rotherham@Joshua:2:10 @ For we have heard how Yahweh, dried up, the waters of the Red Sea from before you, when ye came forth out of Egypt, and what ye did unto the two kings of the Amorites who were over the Jordan unto Sihon and unto Og, whom ye devoted to destruction;

rotherham@Joshua:2:11 @ and, when we heard, then did our heart melt, and there rose up no longer any spirit in any man because of you, for, as for Yahweh your God, he, is Godin the heavens above, and upon the earth beneath.

rotherham@Joshua:2:12 @ Now, therefore I pray you, swear unto me by Yahweh, since I have dealt with you in lovingkindness, that, ye also, will deal with the house of my father in lovingkindness, and will give me a token of faithfulness,

rotherham@Joshua:2:14 @ And the men said unto her, Our souls in your stead unto death, if ye utter not this our business, so shall it be, when Yahweh shall give us the land, that we will deal with thee in lovingkindness and in faithfulness.

rotherham@Joshua:2:17 @ And the men said unto her, Free, will we be from this thine oath which thou hast made us swear:

rotherham@Joshua:2:22 @ And they went and came into the mountain, and abode there three days, until the pursuers had returned, so the pursuers, made search, throughout all the way, but found them not.

rotherham@Joshua:2:23 @ And the two men returned and came down out of the mountain, and crossed over and came unto Joshua, son of Nun, and recounted to him all that had befallen them;

rotherham@Joshua:2:24 @ and they said unto Joshua, Yahweh, hath delivered, into our hand all the land, moreover also all the inhabitants of the land, have melted away, from before us.

rotherham@Joshua:3:1 @ So then Joshua rose early in the morning, and they brake up from The Acacias and came as far as the Jordan, he and all the sons of Israel, and they lodged there before they passed over.

rotherham@Joshua:3:2 @ And it came to pass, after three days, that the officers went through the midst of the camp,

rotherham@Joshua:3:3 @ and commanded the people saying, When ye see the ark of the covenant of Yahweh your God, and, the priests the Levites, bearing it, ye also, shall break up out of your place, and come after it.

rotherham@Joshua:3:4 @ Yet shall there be, a distance, between you and it, about two thousand cubits by measure, do not come near unto it that ye may get to know the way by which ye must go, for ye have not passed this way, heretofore.

rotherham@Joshua:3:8 @ Thou, therefore, shalt command the priests who am bearing the ark of the covenant, saying, When ye are come as far as the edge of the waters of the Jordan, in the Jordan, shall ye stand.

rotherham@Joshua:3:12 @ Now, therefore, take you twelve men, out of the tribes of Israel, one man severally for each tribe;

rotherham@Joshua:3:14 @ And it came to pass, when the people set out from their tents, to cross the Jordan, with the priests, bearing the ark of the covenant before the people,

rotherham@Joshua:3:15 @ then, as the bearers of the ark came as far as the Jordan, and, the feet of the priests who were bearing the ark, were dipped in the edge of the waters, the Jordan being full over all his banks, all the days of harvest,

rotherham@Joshua:4:1 @ And it came to pass, when all the nation had made an end of passing over the Jordan, that Yahweh slake unto Joshua, saying:

rotherham@Joshua:4:2 @ Take unto you, from among the people, twelve men, one man severally from each tribe;

rotherham@Joshua:4:4 @ So Joshua called unto the twelve men whom he had made ready, from among the sons of Israel, one man severally out of each tribe;

rotherham@Joshua:4:6 @ that this may be a sign in your midst, for your sons will ask in time to come, saying, What mean these stones to you?

rotherham@Joshua:4:7 @ Then shall ye say unto them That the waters of the Jordan, were cut off, from before the ark of the covenant of Yahweh, when it passed into the Jordan, the waters of the Jordan, were cut off. So shall these stones become a memorial unto the sons of Israel, unto times age-abiding.

rotherham@Joshua:4:12 @ Also the sons of Reuben and the sons of Gad and the hall tribe of Manasseh, passed over, armed, before the sons of Israel, as Moses had spoken unto them:

rotherham@Joshua:4:16 @ Command the priests who are bearing the ark of testimony, that they come up out of the Jordan.

rotherham@Joshua:4:17 @ So Joshua commanded the priests, saying, Come ye up out of the Jordan.

rotherham@Joshua:4:18 @ And it came to pass, when the priests who were bearing the ark of the covenant of Yahweh came up out of the midst of the Jordan, and the soles of the feet of the priests were withdrawn unto the dry ground, then returned the waters of the Jordan unto their place, and went, as before, over all his banks.

rotherham@Joshua:4:19 @ So, the people, came up out of the Jordan, on the tenth of the first month, and encamped in Gilgal, at the eastern end of Jericho.

rotherham@Joshua:4:21 @ Then spake he unto the sons of Israel, saying, When your sons shall ask, in time to come, of their fathers, saying, What mean these stones?

rotherham@Joshua:4:22 @ then shall ye let your sons know, saying, On dry ground, came Israel over this Jordan;

rotherham@Joshua:5:1 @ And it came to pass, when all the kings of the Amorites who were over the Jordan westward, and all the kings of the Canaanites who were by the sea, heard how that Yahweh had dried up the waters of the Jordan, from before the sons of Israel, until they had passed over, that their heart melted, and there was no spirit in them any more, because of the sons of Israel.

rotherham@Joshua:5:2 @ At that time, said Yahweh unto Joshua, Make thee knives of flint, and again circumcise the sons of Israel, a second time.

rotherham@Joshua:5:4 @ Now, this, is the cause why Joshua did circumcise, all the people who came forth out of Egypt, who were males, all the men of war, died in the desert, by the way, after they came forth out of Egypt.

rotherham@Joshua:5:5 @ For, though all the people who came forth had been circumcised, yet, all the people who were born in the desert by the way, after they came forth out of Egypt, had they not circumcised.

rotherham@Joshua:5:6 @ Because, for forty years, did the sons of Israel journey in the desert, until all the nation who were men of war, who came forth out of Egypt, were consumed, because they hearkened not unto the voice of Yahweh, unto whom Yahweh sware that he would not let them see the land, which Yahweh sware unto their fathers, that he would give unto us, a land flowing with milk and honey.

rotherham@Joshua:5:8 @ And so it came to pass, when they had made an end of circumcising all the nation, they remained in their place, in the camp, until they were healed.

rotherham@Joshua:5:9 @ Then said Yahweh unto Joshua, To-day, have I rolled away the reproach of Egypt from off you. Wherefore the name of that place is called Gilgal unto this day. \fs15

rotherham@Joshua:5:11 @ And they did eat of the corn of the land, on the morrow of the passover, unleavened cakes and parched ears of corn, on this selfsame day.

rotherham@Joshua:5:13 @ And it came to pass, while Joshua was at Jericho, that he lifted up his eyes, and looked, and lo! a man standing over against him, with his sword drawn, in his hand, so Joshua went unto him, and said to him, For us, art thou, or for our adversaries?

rotherham@Joshua:5:14 @ And he said Nay, but, I, as prince of the host of Yahweh, have, now, come. So Joshua fell on his face to the earth, and worshipped, and said unto him, What is my lord speaking unto his servant?

rotherham@Joshua:6:1 @ Now, Jericho, was shut up and barred because of the sons of Israel, none came out and none went in.

rotherham@Joshua:6:2 @ Then said Yahweh unto Joshua, See, I have delivered, into thy hand, Jericho and her king, the mighty men of valour.

rotherham@Joshua:6:3 @ So then ye shall compass the city all ye men of war, going round the city, once, thus, shall thou do six days.

rotherham@Joshua:6:4 @ And, seven priests, shall bear the seven rams horns before the ark, and, on the seventh day, shall ye compass the city seven times, and, the priests, shall blow with the horns.

rotherham@Joshua:6:5 @ And it shall come to pass, when the rams horn soundeth, when ye hear the sound of the horn, that all the people shall shout with a great shout, and then shall the wall of the city fall down under it, and the people shall go up, every man straight before him.

rotherham@Joshua:6:7 @ Then said he unto the people, Pass on and compass the city, and let, the armed host, pass on before the ark of Yahweh.

rotherham@Joshua:6:9 @ And, the armed host, went on before the priests who blew with the horns, and, the rear-guard, came after the ark, going on and blowing with the horns.

rotherham@Joshua:6:11 @ So he caused the ark of Yahweh to compass the city, going round once, and they came into the camp, and lodged in the camp.

rotherham@Joshua:6:13 @ and, the seven priests who bare the seven rams horns before the ark of Yahweh, went on and on, and blew with the horns, with, the armed host going on before them, and, the rear-guard, coming after the ark of Yahweh, going on and blowing with the horns.

rotherham@Joshua:6:15 @ And it came to pass, on the seventh day, that they rose early at the uprisings of the dawn, and compassed the city after this manner, seven times, only on that day they compassed the city seven times.

rotherham@Joshua:6:16 @ And it came to pass, at the seventh timewhen the priests blew with the horns, then did Joshua say unto the people Shout, for Yahweh hath delivered unto you the city.

rotherham@Joshua:6:17 @ And it shall be, that, as for the city, devoted, shall it be and all that is therein unto Yahweh, nevertheless, Rahab the harlot, shall live, she and all who are with her in the house, because she hid the messengers whom we sent.

rotherham@Joshua:6:19 @ But, as for all silver and gold and vessels of bronze and iron, hallowed, it is to Yahweh, unto the treasury of Yahweh, shall it come.

rotherham@Joshua:6:20 @ So the people shouted, when the horns were blown, yea it came to pass, when the people heard the sound of the horn, that the people shouted with a great shout, and the wall fell down under it, and the people went up into the city every man straight before him, and so they captured the city.

rotherham@Joshua:6:22 @ But, unto the two men who spied out the land, Joshua said, Go into the house of the woman, the harlot, and bring out thence the woman and all that she hath, as ye aware unto her.

rotherham@Joshua:6:23 @ So the young men the spies went in and brought out Rahab and her father and her mother and her brethren and all that she had, yea, all her kindred, brought they out, and set them outside the camp of Israel.

rotherham@Joshua:6:25 @ And, Rahab the harlot and the household of her father and all that she had, did Joshua save alive, so she hath dwelt in the midst of Israel until this day, because she hid the messengers whom Joshua sent to spy out Jericho.

rotherham@Joshua:6:26 @ And Joshua imposed an oath at that time, saying, Cursed be the man before Yahweh who shall raise up and build this city Jericho, At the price of his firstborn, shall he lay its foundation, and, at the price of his youngest, shall he set up its doors.

rotherham@Joshua:6:27 @ And so it was that Yahweh was with Joshua, and his fame was in all the land.

rotherham@Joshua:7:2 @ And Joshua sent men from Jericho to Ai which was beside Beth-aven on the east side of Bethel, and spake unto them saying, Go up and spy out the land. So the men went up, and spied out Ai.

rotherham@Joshua:7:3 @ And they returned unto Joshua and said unto him Let not all the people go up, about two thousand men or three thousand men, can go up and smite Ai, do not weary the whole people to go thither, for, but few, they are.

rotherham@Joshua:7:4 @ There went up thither of the people therefore, about three thousand men, but they fled before the men of Ai.

rotherham@Joshua:7:5 @ And the men of Ai smote of them about thirty-six men, and pursued them before the gate as far as the Shebarim, and smote them on the slope, so that the heart of the people melted and became as water.

rotherham@Joshua:7:9 @ Only let the Canaanite and all the inhabitants of the land hear, and they will surround us, and cut off our name out of the earth, what then wilt thou do for thy great name?

rotherham@Joshua:7:12 @ Therefore cannot the sons of Israel stand before their enemies, their back, do they turn before their enemies, because they have become devoted, I will no more be with you, except ye destroy the devoted thing out of your midst.

rotherham@Joshua:7:14 @ Therefore shall ye be brought near in the morning by your tribes, and it shall be thatthe tribe which Yahweh shall seize, shall come near, by families, and the family which Yahweh shall seize, shall come near, by households, and the household which Yahweh shall seize, shall come near, man by man;

rotherham@Joshua:7:19 @ And Joshua said unto Achan My son give I pray thee glory unto Yahweh God of Israel and make to him confession, and tell me I pray thee what thou hast done, do not hide it from me.

rotherham@Joshua:7:22 @ So Joshua sent messengers, and they ran unto the tent, and, there it was, hid in his tent, and, the silver, under it.

rotherham@Joshua:8:3 @ So Joshua arose, and all the people of war, to go up to Ai, and Joshua chose out thirty thousand men, the mighty men of valour, and sent them forth by night.

rotherham@Joshua:8:5 @ But, I, and all the people who are with me, will draw near unto the city, and it shall be, when they come out to meet us, as at the first, then will we flee before them;

rotherham@Joshua:8:6 @ so will they come out after us, until we have drawn them away from the city, for they will say, Fleeing before us, as at the first! therefore will we flee before them.

rotherham@Joshua:8:11 @ And, all the people of war who were with him, went up, and drew near, and came in, right before the city, and pitched on the north of Ai, with, a valley, between them and Ai.

rotherham@Joshua:8:12 @ And he took about five thousand men, and set them in ambush between Bethel and Ai, on the west of the city.

rotherham@Joshua:8:14 @ And it came to pass, when the king of Ai saw it, that they hasted, and rose up early, and the men of the city came out to meet Israel for battle, he and all his people, at an appointed time, before the waste plain, he not knowing that there was an ambush lying in wait for him, behind the city.

rotherham@Joshua:8:20 @ And the men of Ai turned behind them, and looked, and lo! the smoke of the city had risen up towards the heavens, and there was in them no strength, to flee this way or that way, moreover, the people that were fleeing to the wilderness, turned back upon the pursuers.

rotherham@Joshua:8:21 @ Yea, when, Joshua and all Israel, saw that the ambush had captured the city, and that the smoke of the city had risen up, then returned they, and smote the men of Ai.

rotherham@Joshua:8:22 @ And, the others, came forth out of the city to meet them, so they were in the midst of Israel, some on this side, and some on that side, and they smote them, until there was left them none to remain or to escape.

rotherham@Joshua:8:24 @ And it came to pass, when Israel had made an end of slaying all the inhabitants of Ai in the field, in the wilderness whither they had pursued them, and all of them had fallen by the edge of the sword until they were consumed, then all Israel returned to Ai, and smote it with the edge of the sword.

rotherham@Joshua:8:25 @ And so it was, that all who fell that day, both of men and of women, were twelve thousand, all people of Ai.

rotherham@Joshua:8:33 @ And, all Israel, and their elders and officers, and their judges, were standing on this side and on that side of the ark, before the priests the Levites, who were bearing the ark of the covenant of Yahweh, as well the sojourner as the home-born, half of them over against Mount Gerizim, and half of them over against Mount Ebal, as Moses the servant of Yahweh commanded to bless the sons of Israel, first of all.

rotherham@Joshua:8:35 @ Them was not a word of all that Moses commanded, which Joshua read not before all the convocation of Israel, with the women and the little ones, and the sojourner who was going on in their midst.

rotherham@Joshua:9:1 @ And it came to pass, when they heard, namely, all the kings who were over the Jordan, in the hill country and in the lowland, and in all the coast of the great sea, over against the Lebanon, the Hittite, and the Amorite, the Canaanite, the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite;

rotherham@Joshua:9:6 @ So they took their journey unto Joshua, unto the camp, at Gilgal, and said unto him, and unto the men of Israel, From a far country, are we come, Now, therefore, solemnise with us a covenant.

rotherham@Joshua:9:7 @ And the men of Israel said unto the Hivites, Peradventure, in our midst, ye are dwelling, how then can we solemnise with you a covenant?

rotherham@Joshua:9:8 @ And they said unto Joshua: Thy servants, we are. And Joshua said unto them: Who, are ye? And, from whence, come ye?

rotherham@Joshua:9:9 @ And they said unto him From a very far country, have thy servants come, because of the name of Yahweh thy God, because we had heard his fame, and all that he had done in Egypt;

rotherham@Joshua:9:11 @ So our elders and all the inhabitants of our land spake unto us, saying Take ye, in your hand, provision for the journey, and go your way to meet them, then shall ye say unto them, Your servants, we are. Now, therefore, solemnise with us a covenant.

rotherham@Joshua:9:12 @ This our bread, took we, hot, for our provision, out of our houses, on the day we came forth to journey unto you, but, now, lo! it is dry, yea it is broken;

rotherham@Joshua:9:14 @ So the men took of their provision, but, the bidding of Yahweh, had they not asked.

rotherham@Joshua:9:16 @ And it came to pass, at the end of three days after they had solemnised with them a covenant, that they heard that, near neighbours, they were unto them, and, in their midst, they were dwelling.

rotherham@Joshua:9:17 @ So the sons of Israel brake up, and came in unto their cities on the third day, their cities, being Gibeon, and Chephirah, and Beeroth, and Kiriath-jearim.

rotherham@Joshua:9:20 @ This, will we do unto them, even let them live, lest there come on us wrath, because of the oath which we have sworn unto them.

rotherham@Joshua:9:21 @ And the princes said unto them Let them live. So they became hewers of wood and drawers of water unto all the assembly, as the princes spake unto them.

rotherham@Joshua:10:1 @ And it came to pass, when Adonizedec, king of Jerusalem, heard that Joshua had captured Ai, and devoted it to destruction, as he had done unto Jericho and her king, so, had he done unto Ai and her king, and that the inhabitants of Gibeon had made peace with Israel and had come into their midst,

rotherham@Joshua:10:2 @ then feared they greatly, because Gibeon was, a great city, as one of the royal cities, and because, it, was greater than Ai, and, all the men thereof, were mighty:

rotherham@Joshua:10:4 @ Come up unto me and help me, that we may smite Gibeon, for it hath made peace with Joshua, and with the sons of Israel.

rotherham@Joshua:10:5 @ So they gathered themselves together and came up, even the five kings of the Amoritesthe king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of Lachish, the king of Eglon, they, and all their hosts, and encamped near Gibeon, and made war against it.

rotherham@Joshua:10:6 @ So the men of Gibeon sent unto Joshua, unto the camp at Gilgal, saying, Do not withhold thy hand from thy servants, Come up unto us quickly, and save us, and help us, for all the kings of the Amorites that dwell in the hill-country, are gathered together against us.

rotherham@Joshua:10:7 @ So Joshua went up from Gilgal, he and all the people of war with him, even all the mighty men of valour.

rotherham@Joshua:10:9 @ So then Joshua came in unto them, suddenly, all the night, came he up, from Gilgal.

rotherham@Joshua:10:11 @ And it came to pass, when they fled from before Israel, they, being on the slope of Beth-horon, that, Yahweh, cast down upon them great stones out of the heavens, as far as Azekah, and they died, more, were they who died by the hailstones, than they whom the sons of Israel slew with the sword.

rotherham@Joshua:10:18 @ And Joshua said, Roll ye great stones against the mouth of the cave, and set over it men, to watch them;

rotherham@Joshua:10:20 @ And it came to pass, when Joshua and the sons of Israel had made an end of smiting them with a very great slaughter, until they were spent, then did, the remainder that were left of them, enter into the fortified cities.

rotherham@Joshua:10:22 @ Then said Joshua, Open ye the mouth of the cave, and bring out unto me, these five kings, out of the cave.

rotherham@Joshua:10:23 @ And they did so, and brought out unto him, these five kings, out of the cave, namely, the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of Lachish, the king of Eglon.

rotherham@Joshua:10:24 @ And it came to pass, when they brought out these kings unto Joshua, that Joshua called for all the men of Israel, and said unto the captains of the men of war who had been with him, Come near, put your feet upon the necks of these kings. So they came near, and put their feet upon the necks of them.

rotherham@Joshua:10:25 @ Then said Joshua unto them: Do not fear, nor be alarmed, be firm and bold, for, thus and thus, will Yahweh do unto all your enemies, against whom ye do fight.

rotherham@Joshua:10:27 @ And it came to pass, at the time of the going in of the sun, that Joshua gave command, and they took them down off the trees, and cast them into the cave, where they had hid themselves, and put great stones upon the mouth of the cave,

rotherham@Joshua:10:33 @ Then, came up Horam, king of Gezer, to help Lachish, and Joshua smote him and his people, until he had not left him a survivor.

rotherham@Joshua:10:35 @ and captured it on the same day, and smote it with the edge of the sword, and, all the souls that were therein, on that day, devoted he to destruction, according to all that he had done to Lachish.

rotherham@Joshua:10:42 @ Yea, all these kings and their land, did Joshua capture at one time, because, Yahweh, God of Israel, fought for Israel.

rotherham@Joshua:11:1 @ And it came to pass, when Jabin king of Hazor heard, that he sent unto Jobab king of Madon, and unto the king of Shimron, and unto the king of Achshaph;

rotherham@Joshua:11:4 @ and they came outthey, and all their hosts with them, much people, like the sand that is upon the seashore for multitude, with horses and chariots very many.

rotherham@Joshua:11:5 @ And, when all these kings were gathered together, they came in, and encamped as one man, at the waters of Merom, to fight with Israel.

rotherham@Joshua:11:6 @ Then said Yahweh unto Joshua Do not fear because of them, for, to-morrow, about this time, am I going to deliver up all of them, slain, before Israel, their horses, shalt thou ham-string, and, their chariots, shalt thou burn up with fire.

rotherham@Joshua:11:7 @ So Joshua, and all the army with him, came in upon them, by the waters of Merom, suddenly, and fell upon them.

rotherham@Joshua:11:10 @ Then Joshua turned back, at that time, and captured Hazor, and, the king thereof, smote he with the sword, for, Hazor, aforetime, was the head of all these kingdoms.

rotherham@Joshua:11:20 @ For, from Yahweh, came it to pass, that their heart was emboldened to come out to war with Israel, that he might devote them to destruction, that they might find no favour, but that he might destroy them, as Yahweh commanded Moses.

rotherham@Joshua:11:21 @ And Joshua came in, at that time, and cut off the Anakim from the hill countryfrom Hebron, from Debir, from Anab, and from all the hill country of Judah, and from all the hill country of Israel, with their cities, did Joshua devote them to destruction.

rotherham@Joshua:11:22 @ There was left remaining none of the Anakim, in the land of the sons of Israel, save only, in Gaza, in Gath, and in Ashdod, did some remain.

rotherham@Joshua:12:20 @ The king of Shimron-meron, one, the king of Achshaph, one,

rotherham@Joshua:12:21 @ The king of Taanach, one, the king of Megiddo, one,

rotherham@Joshua:12:22 @ The king of Kadesh, one, the king of Jokneam in Carmel, one,

rotherham@Joshua:13:4 @ on the south: all the land of the Canaanites, and Mearah which belongeth to the Zidonians, as far as Aphek, as far as the boundary of the Amorites;

rotherham@Joshua:13:9 @ from Aroer, which is on the edge of the ravine of Arnon, and the city, which is in the midst of the ravine, and all the table-land of Medeba, as far as Dibon;

rotherham@Joshua:13:14 @ Howbeit, unto the tribe of Levi, gave he no inheritance, the altar-flames of Yahweh God of Israel, are his inheritance, as he spake unto him.

rotherham@Joshua:13:16 @ and their boundary was from Aroer, that is on the edge of the ravine of Arnon and the city which is in the midst of the ravine and all the table-land by Medeba;

rotherham@Joshua:13:17 @ Heshbon and all her cities which are on the table-land, Dibon and Bamoth-baal, and Beth-baal-meon;

rotherham@Joshua:13:30 @ and their boundary wasfrom Mahanaim all Bashan all the kingdom of Og king of Bashan and all the Encampments of Jair which are in Bashan three-score cities;

rotherham@Joshua:14:4 @ for the sons of Joseph became two tribes: Manasseh and Ephraim, so they gave no portion to the Levites in the land, save only cities to dwell in, with the pasture lands thereof, for their cattle and for their substance.
