Joshua 13

Joshua Chapter 13 KJV

1What parts of the land remained yet unsubdued, Joshua is commanded to divide the whole by lot; the two tribes and half being excepted out of this division, and the tribe of Levi. 15The bounds of Reuben's inheritance, (22Balaam slain.) 24of the inheritance of Gad, 29and of the half tribe of Manasseh, as allotted by Moses, who gave no inheritance to the Levites, but God only.
1 Now Joshua was 1old and stricken in years; and the Lord said unto him, Thou art old and stricken in years, 2and there remaineth yet very much land ato be possessed.
2 This is 1the land that yet remaineth: 2all the borders of the Philistines, and all 3Geshuri,
3 From 1Sihor, which is before Egypt, even unto the borders of Ekron northward, which is counted to the Canaanite: 2five lords of the Philistines; the 3Gazathites, and the Ashdothites, the Eshkalonites, the Gittites, and the Ekronites; also the Avites:
4 From the south, all the 1land of the Canaanites, and aMearah that is beside the Sidonians, unto Aphek, to the borders of the Amorites:
5 And the land of the 1Giblites, and all 2Lebanon, toward the sunrising, 3from Baal-gad under 4mount Hermon unto the 5entering into Hamath.
6 All the inhabitants of the hill country from Lebanon unto 1Misrephoth-maim, and all the Sidonians, them 2will I drive out from before the children of Israel: only divide thou it 3by lot unto the Israelites for an inheritance, as I have commanded thee.
7 Now therefore divide 1this land for an inheritance unto the nine tribes, and the half tribe of Manasseh,
8 With whom the Reubenites and the Gadites have received their inheritance, 1which Moses gave them, beyond Jordan eastward, even as Moses the servant of the Lord gave them;
9 1From Aroer, that is upon the bank of the river Arnon, and the city that is in the midst of the river, and all 2the plain of Medeba unto Dibon;
10 And 1all the cities of Sihon king of the Amorites, which reigned in Heshbon, unto the border of the children of Ammon;
11 And Gilead, and the border of the 1Geshurites and Maachathites, and 2all mount Hermon, and all Bashan unto Salcah;
12 All the kingdom of Og in Bashan, which reigned in Ashtaroth and in Edrei, who remained of the remnant 1of the giants: for these did Moses smite, and cast them out.
13 Nevertheless the children of Israel 1expelled not the Geshurites, nor the Maachathites: but the Geshurites and the Maachathites dwell among the Israelites until this day.
14 Only 1unto the tribe of Levi he gave none inheritance; the sacrifices of the Lord God of Israel made by fire are their inheritance, 2as he said unto them.
15 ¶ And Moses gave unto the tribe of the children of Reuben inheritance according to their families.
16 And 1their coast was from Aroer, that is on the bank of the river Arnon, and the city that is in the midst of the river, and all the plain by Medeba;
17 Heshbon, and all her cities that are in the plain; Dibon, and aBamoth-baal, and Beth-baal-meon,
18 And Jahazah, and Kedemoth, and Mephaath,
19 And Kirjathaim, and Sibmah, and Zareth-shahar in the mount of the valley,
20 And 1Beth-peor, and aAshdoth-pisgah, and Beth-jeshimoth,
21 And 1all the cities of the plain, and all the kingdom of Sihon king of the Amorites, which reigned in Heshbon, 2whom Moses smote with the princes of Midian, Evi, and Rekem, and Zur, and Hur, and Reba, which were 3dukes of Sihon, dwelling in the country.
22 1Balaam also the son of Beor, the asoothsayer, did the children of Israel slay with the sword among them that were slain by them.
23 And the border of the children of Reuben was Jordan, and the border thereof. This was the inheritance of the children of Reuben after their families, the cities and the villages thereof.
24 And 1Moses gave inheritance unto the tribe of Gad, even unto the children of Gad according to their families.
25 And their coast was 1Jazer, and 2all the cities of Gilead, and 3half the land of the children of Ammon, unto Aroer that is before 4Rabbah;
26 And from Heshbon unto 1Ramath-mizpeh, and Betonim; and from 2Mahanaim unto the border of 3Debir;
27 And in the valley, 1Beth-aram, and Beth-nimrah, and Succoth, and Zaphon, the rest of the kingdom of Sihon king of Heshbon, Jordan and his border, even unto the edge of the sea of 2Chinnereth on the other side Jordan eastward.
28 This is the inheritance of the children of Gad after their families, the cities, and their villages.
29 ¶ And Moses gave inheritance unto the half tribe of Manasseh: and this was the possession of the half tribe of the children of Manasseh by their families.
30 And 1their coast was from Mahanaim, all Bashan, all the kingdom of Og king of Bashan, and all the towns of Jair, which are in Bashan, threescore cities:
31 And 1half Gilead, and 2Ashtaroth, and Edrei, cities of the kingdom of Og in Bashan, were pertaining unto the children of Machir the son of Manasseh, even to the one half of the children of 3Machir by their families.
32 These are the countries which Moses did distribute for inheritance 1in the plains of Moab, on the other side Jordan, by Jericho, eastward.
33 But 1unto the tribe of Levi Moses gave not any inheritance: the Lord God of Israel was their inheritance, as he said unto them.
