06:011:007 So Joshua came, and all the people of war with him, against them by the waters of Merom suddenly; and they fell upon them.
06:011:008 And the LORD delivered them into the hand of Israel, who smote them, and chased them unto great Zidon, and unto Misrephothmaim, and unto the valley of Mizpeh eastward; and they smote them, until they left them none remaining.
06:011:009 And Joshua did unto them as the LORD bade him: he houghed their horses, and burnt their chariots with fire.
06:011:010 And Joshua at that time turned back, and took Hazor, and smotethe king thereof with the sword: for Hazor beforetime was thehead of all those kingdoms.
06:011:011 And they smote all the souls that were therein with the edgeof the sword, utterly destroying them: there was not any leftto breathe: and he burnt Hazor with fire.
06:011:012 And all the cities of those kings, and all the kings of them, did Joshua take, and smote them with the edge of the sword, and he utterly destroyed them, as Moses the servant of the LORD commanded.
06:011:013 But as for the cities that stood still in their strength, Israel burned none of them, save Hazor only; that did Joshua burn.
06:011:014 And all the spoil of these cities, and the cattle, the children of Israel took for a prey unto themselves; but every man they smote with the edge of the sword, until they had destroyed them, neither left they any to breathe.
06:011:015 As the LORD commanded Moses his servant, so did Moses commandJoshua, and so did Joshua; he left nothing undone of all thatthe LORD commanded Moses.
06:011:016 So Joshua took all that land, the hills, and all the southcountry, and all the land of Goshen, and the valley, and theplain, and the mountain of Israel, and the valley of the same;
06:011:017 Even from the mount Halak, that goeth up to Seir, even untoBaalgad in the valley of Lebanon under mount Hermon: and alltheir kings he took, and smote them, and slew them.
06:011:018 Joshua made war a long time with all those kings.
06:011:019 There was not a city that made peace with the children of Israel, save the Hivites the inhabitants of Gibeon: all other they took in battle.
06:011:020 For it was of the LORD to harden their hearts, that theyshould come against Israel in battle, that he might destroythem utterly, and that they might have no favour, but that hemight destroy them, as the LORD commanded Moses.
06:011:021 And at that time came Joshua, and cut off the Anakims from themountains, from Hebron, from Debir, from Anab, and from allthe mountains of Judah, and from all the mountains of Israel:Joshua destroyed them utterly with their cities.
06:011:022 There was none of the Anakims left in the land of the children of Israel: only in Gaza, in Gath, and in Ashdod, there remained.
06:011:023 So Joshua took the whole land, according to all that the LORDsaid unto Moses; and Joshua gave it for an inheritance untoIsrael according to their divisions by their tribes. And theland rested from war.
06:012:001 Now these are the kings of the land, which the children ofIsrael smote, and possessed their land on the other sideJordan toward the rising of the sun, from the river Arnon untomount Hermon, and all the plain on the east:
06:012:002 Sihon king of the Amorites, who dwelt in Heshbon, and ruled from Aroer, which is upon the bank of the river Arnon, and from the middle of the river, and from half Gilead, even unto the river Jabbok, which is the border of the children of Ammon;
06:012:003 And from the plain to the sea of Chinneroth on the east, and unto the sea of the plain, even the salt sea on the east, the way to Bethjeshimoth; and from the south, under Ashdothpisgah:
06:012:004 And the coast of Og king of Bashan, which was of the remnant of the giants, that dwelt at Ashtaroth and at Edrei,
06:012:005 And reigned in mount Hermon, and in Salcah, and in all Bashan, unto the border of the Geshurites and the Maachathites, and half Gilead, the border of Sihon king of Heshbon.
06:012:006 Them did Moses the servant of the LORD and the children of Israel smite: and Moses the servant of the LORD gave it for a possession unto the Reubenites, and the Gadites, and the half tribe of Manasseh.
06:012:007 And these are the kings of the country which Joshua and the children of Israel smote on this side Jordan on the west, from Baalgad in the valley of Lebanon even unto the mount Halak, that goeth up to Seir; which Joshua gave unto the tribes of Israel for a possession according to their divisions;
06:012:008 In the mountains, and in the valleys, and in the plains, and in the springs, and in the wilderness, and in the south country; the Hittites, the Amorites, and the Canaanites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites:
06:012:009 The king of Jericho, one; the king of Ai, which is beside Bethel, one;
06:012:010 The king of Jerusalem, one; the king of Hebron, one;
06:012:011 The king of Jarmuth, one; the king of Lachish, one;
06:012:012 The king of Eglon, one; the king of Gezer, one;
06:012:013 The king of Debir, one; the king of Geder, one;
06:012:014 The king of Hormah, one; the king of Arad, one;
06:012:015 The king of Libnah, one; the king of Adullam, one;
06:012:016 The king of Makkedah, one; the king of Bethel, one;
06:012:017 The king of Tappuah, one; the king of Hepher, one;
06:012:018 The king of Aphek, one; the king of Lasharon, one;
06:012:019 The king of Madon, one; the king of Hazor, one;
06:012:020 The king of Shimronmeron, one; the king of Achshaph, one;
06:012:021 The king of Taanach, one; the king of Megiddo, one;
06:012:022 The king of Kedesh, one; the king of Jokneam of Carmel, one;
06:012:023 The king of Dor in the coast of Dor, one; the king of the nations of Gilgal, one;
06:012:024 The king of Tirzah, one: all the kings thirty and one.
06:013:001 Now Joshua was old and stricken in years; and the LORD said unto him, Thou art old and stricken in years, and there remaineth yet very much land to be possessed.
06:013:002 This is the land that yet remaineth: all the borders of the Philistines, and all Geshuri,
06:013:003 From Sihor, which is before Egypt, even unto the borders of Ekron northward, which is counted to the Canaanite: five lords of the Philistines; the Gazathites, and the Ashdothites, the Eshkalonites, the Gittites, and the Ekronites; also the Avites:
06:013:004 From the south, all the land of the Canaanites, and Mearahthat is beside the Sidonians unto Aphek, to the borders of theAmorites:
06:013:005 And the land of the Giblites, and all Lebanon, toward thesunrising, from Baalgad under mount Hermon unto the enteringinto Hamath.
06:013:006 All the inhabitants of the hill country from Lebanon unto Misrephothmaim, and all the Sidonians, them will I drive out from before the children of Israel: only divide thou it by lot unto the Israelites for an inheritance, as I have commanded thee.
06:013:007 Now therefore divide this land for an inheritance unto the nine tribes, and the half tribe of Manasseh,
06:013:008 With whom the Reubenites and the Gadites have received theirinheritance, which Moses gave them, beyond Jordan eastward,even as Moses the servant of the LORD gave them;
06:013:009 From Aroer, that is upon the bank of the river Arnon, and thecity that is in the midst of the river, and all the plain ofMedeba unto Dibon;
06:013:010 And all the cities of Sihon king of the Amorites, whichreigned in Heshbon, unto the border of the children of Ammon;
06:013:011 And Gilead, and the border of the Geshurites and Maachathites,and all mount Hermon, and all Bashan unto Salcah;
06:013:012 All the kingdom of Og in Bashan, which reigned in Ashtarothand in Edrei, who remained of the remnant of the giants: forthese did Moses smite, and cast them out.
06:013:013 Nevertheless the children of Israel expelled not theGeshurites, nor the Maachathites: but the Geshurites and theMaachathites dwell among the Israelites until this day.
06:013:014 Only unto the tribes of Levi he gave none inheritance; thesacrifices of the LORD God of Israel made by fire are theirinheritance, as he said unto them.
06:013:015 And Moses gave unto the tribe of the children of Reuben inheritance according to their families.
06:013:016 And their 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;
06:013:017 Heshbon, and all her cities that are in the plain; Dibon, and Bamothbaal, and Bethbaalmeon,
06:013:018 And Jahaza, and Kedemoth, and Mephaath,
06:013:019 And Kirjathaim, and Sibmah, and Zarethshahar in the mount of the valley,
06:013:020 And Bethpeor, and Ashdothpisgah, and Bethjeshimoth,
06:013:021 And all the cities of the plain, and all the kingdom of Sihon king of the Amorites, which reigned in Heshbon, whom Moses smote with the princes of Midian, Evi, and Rekem, and Zur, and Hur, and Reba, which were dukes of Sihon, dwelling in the country.
06:013:022 Balaam also the son of Beor, the soothsayer, did the children of Israel slay with the sword among them that were slain by them.
06:013:023 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.
06:013:024 And Moses gave inheritance unto the tribe of Gad, even unto the children of Gad according to their families.
06:013:025 And their coast was Jazer, and all the cities of Gilead, and half the land of the children of Ammon, unto Aroer that is before Rabbah;
06:013:026 And from Heshbon unto Ramathmizpeh, and Betonim; and fromMahanaim unto the border of Debir;
06:013:027 And in the valley, Betharam, and Bethnimrah, and Succoth, andZaphon, the rest of the kingdom of Sihon king of Heshbon,Jordan and his border, even unto the edge of the sea ofChinnereth on the other side Jordan eastward.
06:013:028 This is the inheritance of the children of Gad after their families, the cities, and their villages.
06:013:029 And Moses gave inheritance unto the half tribe of Manasseh:and this was the possession of the half tribe of the childrenof Manasseh by their families.
06:013:030 And their coast was from Mahanaim, all Bashan, all the kingdomof Og king of Bashan, and all the towns of Jair, which are inBashan, threescore cities:
06:013:031 And half Gilead, and Ashtaroth, 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 Machir by their families.
06:013:032 These are the countries which Moses did distribute forinheritance in the plains of Moab, on the other side Jordan,by Jericho, eastward.
06:013:033 But unto the tribe of Levi Moses gave not any inheritance: theLORD God of Israel was their inheritance, as he said untothem.
06:014:001 And these are the countries which the children of Israel inherited in the land of Canaan, which Eleazar the priest, and Joshua the son of Nun, and the heads of the fathers of the tribes of the children of Israel, distributed for inheritance to them.
06:014:002 By lot was their inheritance, as the LORD commanded by the hand of Moses, for the nine tribes, and for the half tribe.
06:014:003 For Moses had given the inheritance of two tribes and an half tribe on the other side Jordan: but unto the Levites he gave none inheritance among them.
06:014:004 For the children of Joseph were two tribes, Manasseh and Ephraim: therefore they gave no part unto the Levites in the land, save cities to dwell in, with their suburbs for their cattle and for their substance.
06:014:005 As the LORD commanded Moses, so the children of Israel did, and they divided the land.
06:014:006 Then the children of Judah came unto Joshua in Gilgal: and Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenezite said unto him, Thou knowest the thing that the LORD said unto Moses the man of God concerning me and thee in Kadeshbarnea.
06:014:007 Forty years old was I when Moses the servant of the LORD sent me from Kadeshbarnea to espy out the land; and I brought him word again as it was in mine heart.
06:014:008 Nevertheless my brethren that went up with me made the heart of the people melt: but I wholly followed the LORD my God.
06:014:009 And Moses sware on that day, saying, Surely the land whereon thy feet have trodden shall be thine inheritance, and thy children's for ever, because thou hast wholly followed the LORD my God.
06:014:010 And now, behold, the LORD hath kept me alive, as he said, these forty and five years, even since the LORD spake this word unto Moses, while the children of Israel wandered in the wilderness: and now, lo, I am this day fourscore and five years old.
06:014:011 As yet I am as strong this day as I was in the day that Moses sent me: as my strength was then, even so is my strength now, for war, both to go out, and to come in.
06:014:012 Now therefore give me this mountain, whereof the LORD spake in that day; for thou heardest in that day how the Anakims were there, and that the cities were great and fenced: if so be the LORD will be with me, then I shall be able to drive them out, as the LORD said.
06:014:013 And Joshua blessed him, and gave unto Caleb the son of Jephunneh Hebron for an inheritance.
06:014:014 Hebron therefore became the inheritance of Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenezite unto this day, because that he wholly followed the LORD God of Israel.
06:014:015 And the name of Hebron before was Kirjatharba; which Arba was a great man among the Anakims. And the land had rest from war.
06:015:001 This then was the lot of the tribe of the children of Judah by their families; even to the border of Edom the wilderness of Zin southward was the uttermost part of the south coast.
06:015:002 And their south border was from the shore of the salt sea, from the bay that looketh southward:
06:015:003 And it went out to the south side to Maalehacrabbim, and passed along to Zin, and ascended up on the south side unto Kadeshbarnea, and passed along to Hezron, and went up to Adar, and fetched a compass to Karkaa:
06:015:004 From thence it passed toward Azmon, and went out unto theriver of Egypt; and the goings out of that coast were at thesea: this shall be your south coast.
06:015:005 And the east border was the salt sea, even unto the end ofJordan. And their border in the north quarter was from the bayof the sea at the uttermost part of Jordan:
06:015:006 And the border went up to Bethhogla, and passed along by thenorth of Betharabah; and the border went up to the stone ofBohan the son of Reuben:
06:015:007 And the border went up toward Debir from the valley of Achor,and so northward, looking toward Gilgal, that is before thegoing up to Adummim, which is on the south side of the river:and the border passed toward the waters of Enshemesh, and thegoings out thereof were at Enrogel:
06:015:008 And the border went up by the valley of the son of Hinnom untothe south side of the Jebusite; the same is Jerusalem: and theborder went up to the top of the mountain that lieth beforethe valley of Hinnom westward, which is at the end of thevalley of the giants northward:
06:015:009 And the border was drawn from the top of the hill unto thefountain of the water of Nephtoah, and went out to the citiesof mount Ephron; and the border was drawn to Baalah, which isKirjathjearim:
06:015:010 And the border compassed from Baalah westward unto mount Seir,and passed along unto the side of mount Jearim, which isChesalon, on the north side, and went down to Bethshemesh, andpassed on to Timnah:
06:015:011 And the border went out unto the side of Ekron northward: andthe border was drawn to Shicron, and passed along to mountBaalah, and went out unto Jabneel; and the goings out of theborder were at the sea.
06:015:012 And the west border was to the great sea, and the coast thereof. This is the coast of the children of Judah round about according to their families.
06:015:013 And unto Caleb the son of Jephunneh he gave a part among the children of Judah, according to the commandment of the LORD to Joshua, even the city of Arba the father of Anak, which city is Hebron.
06:015:014 And Caleb drove thence the three sons of Anak, Sheshai, andAhiman, and Talmai, the children of Anak.
06:015:015 And he went up thence to the inhabitants of Debir: and thename of Debir before was Kirjathsepher.
06:015:016 And Caleb said, He that smiteth Kirjathsepher, and taketh it,to him will I give Achsah my daughter to wife.
06:015:017 And Othniel the son of Kenaz, the brother of Caleb, took it:and he gave him Achsah his daughter to wife.
06:015:018 And it came to pass, as she came unto him, that she moved himto ask of her father a field: and she lighted off her ass; andCaleb said unto her, What wouldest thou?
06:015:019 Who answered, Give me a blessing; for thou hast given me asouth land; give me also springs of water. And he gave her theupper springs, and the nether springs.
06:015:020 This is the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Judah according to their families.
06:015:021 And the uttermost cities of the tribe of the children of Judah toward the coast of Edom southward were Kabzeel, and Eder, and Jagur,
06:015:022 And Kinah, and Dimonah, and Adadah,
06:015:023 And Kedesh, and Hazor, and Ithnan,
06:015:024 Ziph, and Telem, and Bealoth,
06:015:025 And Hazor, Hadattah, and Kerioth, and Hezron, which is Hazor,
06:015:026 Amam, and Shema, and Moladah,
06:015:027 And Hazargaddah, and Heshmon, and Bethpalet,
06:015:028 And Hazarshual, and Beersheba, and Bizjothjah,
06:015:029 Baalah, and Iim, and Azem,
06:015:030 And Eltolad, and Chesil, and Hormah,
06:015:031 And Ziklag, and Madmannah, and Sansannah,
06:015:032 And Lebaoth, and Shilhim, and Ain, and Rimmon: all the cities are twenty and nine, with their villages:
06:015:033 And in the valley, Eshtaol, and Zoreah, and Ashnah,
06:015:034 And Zanoah, and Engannim, Tappuah, and Enam,
06:015:035 Jarmuth, and Adullam, Socoh, and Azekah,
06:015:036 And Sharaim, and Adithaim, and Gederah, and Gederothaim; fourteen cities with their villages:
06:015:037 Zenan, and Hadashah, and Migdalgad,
06:015:038 And Dilean, and Mizpeh, and Joktheel,
06:015:039 Lachish, and Bozkath, and Eglon,
06:015:040 And Cabbon, and Lahmam, and Kithlish,
06:015:041 And Gederoth, Bethdagon, and Naamah, and Makkedah; sixteen cities with their villages:
06:015:042 Libnah, and Ether, and Ashan,
06:015:043 And Jiphtah, and Ashnah, and Nezib,
06:015:044 And Keilah, and Achzib, and Mareshah; nine cities with their villages:
06:015:045 Ekron, with her towns and her villages:
06:015:046 From Ekron even unto the sea, all that lay near Ashdod, with their villages:
06:015:047 Ashdod with her towns and her villages, Gaza with her towns and her villages, unto the river of Egypt, and the great sea, and the border thereof:
06:015:048 And in the mountains, Shamir, and Jattir, and Socoh,
06:015:049 And Dannah, and Kirjathsannah, which is Debir,
06:015:050 And Anab, and Eshtemoh, and Anim,
06:015:051 And Goshen, and Holon, and Giloh; eleven cities with their villages:
06:015:052 Arab, and Dumah, and Eshean,
06:015:053 And Janum, and Bethtappuah, and Aphekah,
06:015:054 And Humtah, and Kirjatharba, which is Hebron, and Zior; nine cities with their villages:
06:015:055 Maon, Carmel, and Ziph, and Juttah,
06:015:056 And Jezreel, and Jokdeam, and Zanoah,
06:015:057 Cain, Gibeah, and Timnah; ten cities with their villages:
06:015:058 Halhul, Bethzur, and Gedor,
06:015:059 And Maarath, and Bethanoth, and Eltekon; six cities with theirvillages:
06:015:060 Kirjathbaal, which is Kirjathjearim, and Rabbah; two citieswith their villages:
06:015:061 In the wilderness, Betharabah, Middin, and Secacah,
06:015:062 And Nibshan, and the city of Salt, and Engedi; six cities with their villages.
06:015:063 As for the Jebusites the inhabitants of Jerusalem, thechildren of Judah could not drive them out; but the Jebusitesdwell with the children of Judah at Jerusalem unto this day.
06:016:001 And the lot of the children of Joseph fell from Jordan byJericho, unto the water of Jericho on the east, to thewilderness that goeth up from Jericho throughout mount Bethel,
06:016:002 And goeth out from Bethel to Luz, and passeth along unto the borders of Archi to Ataroth,
06:016:003 And goeth down westward to the coast of Japhleti, unto the coast of Bethhoron the nether, and to Gezer; and the goings out thereof are at the sea.
06:016:004 So the children of Joseph, Manasseh and Ephraim, took their inheritance.
06:016:005 And the border of the children of Ephraim according to theirfamilies was thus: even the border of their inheritance on theeast side was Atarothaddar, unto Bethhoron the upper;
06:016:006 And the border went out toward the sea to Michmethah on thenorth side; and the border went about eastward untoTaanathshiloh, and passed by it on the east to Janohah;
06:016:007 And it went down from Janohah to Ataroth, and to Naarath, and came to Jericho, and went out at Jordan.
06:016:008 The border went out from Tappuah westward unto the river Kanah; and the goings out thereof were at the sea. This is the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Ephraim by their families.
06:016:009 And the separate cities for the children of Ephraim were amongthe inheritance of the children of Manasseh, all the citieswith their villages.
06:016:010 And they drave not out the Canaanites that dwelt in Gezer: butthe Canaanites dwell among the Ephraimites unto this day, andserve under tribute.
06:017:001 There was also a lot for the tribe of Manasseh; for he was the firstborn of Joseph; to wit, for Machir the firstborn of Manasseh, the father of Gilead: because he was a man of war, therefore he had Gilead and Bashan.
06:017:002 There was also a lot for the rest of the children of Manasseh by their families; for the children of Abiezer, and for the children of Helek, and for the children of Asriel, and for the children of Shechem, and for the children of Hepher, and for the children of Shemida: these were the male children of Manasseh the son of Joseph by their families.
06:017:003 But Zelophehad, the son of Hepher, the son of Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh, had no sons, but daughters: and these are the names of his daughters, Mahlah, and Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah.
06:017:004 And they came near before Eleazar the priest, and before Joshua the son of Nun, and before the princes, saying, The LORD commanded Moses to give us an inheritance among our brethren. Therefore according to the commandment of the LORD he gave them an inheritance among the brethren of their father.
06:017:005 And there fell ten portions to Manasseh, beside the land ofGilead and Bashan, which were on the other side Jordan;
06:017:006 Because the daughters of Manasseh had an inheritance among hissons: and the rest of Manasseh's sons had the land of Gilead.
06:017:007 And the coast of Manasseh was from Asher to Michmethah, that lieth before Shechem; and the border went along on the right hand unto the inhabitants of Entappuah.
06:017:008 Now Manasseh had the land of Tappuah: but Tappuah on the border of Manasseh belonged to the children of Ephraim;
06:017:009 And the coast descended unto the river Kanah, southward of the river: these cities of Ephraim are among the cities of Manasseh: the coast of Manasseh also was on the north side of the river, and the outgoings of it were at the sea:
06:017:010 Southward it was Ephraim's, and northward it was Manasseh's, and the sea is his border; and they met together in Asher on the north, and in Issachar on the east.
06:017:011 And Manasseh had in Issachar and in Asher Bethshean and her towns, and Ibleam and her towns, and the inhabitants of Dor and her towns, and the inhabitants of Endor and her towns, and the inhabitants of Taanach and her towns, and the inhabitants of Megiddo and her towns, even three countries.
06:017:012 Yet the children of Manasseh could not drive out theinhabitants of those cities; but the Canaanites would dwell inthat land.
06:017:013 Yet it came to pass, when the children of Israel were waxenstrong, that they put the Canaanites to tribute, but did notutterly drive them out.
06:017:014 And the children of Joseph spake unto Joshua, saying, Why hastthou given me but one lot and one portion to inherit, seeing Iam a great people, forasmuch as the LORD hath blessed mehitherto?
06:017:015 And Joshua answered them, If thou be a great people, then getthee up to the wood country, and cut down for thyself there inthe land of the Perizzites and of the giants, if mount Ephraimbe too narrow for thee.
06:017:016 And the children of Joseph said, The hill is not enough forus: and all the Canaanites that dwell in the land of thevalley have chariots of iron, both they who are of Bethsheanand her towns, and they who are of the valley of Jezreel.
06:017:017 And Joshua spake unto the house of Joseph, even to Ephraim and to Manasseh, saying, Thou art a great people, and hast great power: thou shalt not have one lot only:
06:017:018 But the mountain shall be thine; for it is a wood, and thou shalt cut it down: and the outgoings of it shall be thine: for thou shalt drive out the Canaanites, though they have iron chariots, and though they be strong.
06:018:001 And the whole congregation of the children of Israel assembled together at Shiloh, and set up the tabernacle of the congregation there. And the land was subdued before them.
06:018:002 And there remained among the children of Israel seven tribes, which had not yet received their inheritance.
06:018:003 And Joshua said unto the children of Israel, How long are ye slack to go to possess the land, which the LORD God of your fathers hath given you?
06:018:004 Give out from among you three men for each tribe: and I will send them, and they shall rise, and go through the land, and describe it according to the inheritance of them; and they shall come again to me.
06:018:005 And they shall divide it into seven parts: Judah shall abidein their coast on the south, and the house of Joseph shallabide in their coasts on the north.
06:018:006 Ye shall therefore describe the land into seven parts, andbring the description hither to me, that I may cast lots foryou here before the LORD our God.
06:018:007 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.
06:018:008 And the men arose, and went away: and Joshua charged them that went to describe the land, saying, Go and walk through the land, and describe it, and come again to me, that I may here cast lots for you before the LORD in Shiloh.
06:018:009 And the men went and passed through the land, and described itby cities into seven parts in a book, and came again to Joshuato the host at Shiloh.
06:018:010 And Joshua cast lots for them in Shiloh before the LORD: andthere Joshua divided the land unto the children of Israelaccording to their divisions.
06:018:011 And the lot of the tribe of the children of Benjamin came upaccording to their families: and the coast of their lot cameforth between the children of Judah and the children ofJoseph.
06:018:012 And their border on the north side was from Jordan; and theborder went up to the side of Jericho on the north side, andwent up through the mountains westward; and the goings outthereof were at the wilderness of Bethaven.
06:018:013 And the border went over from thence toward Luz, to the sideof Luz, which is Bethel, southward; and the border descendedto Atarothadar, near the hill that lieth on the south side ofthe nether Bethhoron.
06:018:014 And the border was drawn thence, and compassed the corner of the sea southward, from the hill that lieth before Bethhoron southward; and the goings out thereof were at Kirjathbaal, which is Kirjathjearim, a city of the children of Judah: this was the west quarter.
06:018:015 And the south quarter was from the end of Kirjathjearim, and the border went out on the west, and went out to the well of waters of Nephtoah:
06:018:016 And the border came down to the end of the mountain that lieth before the valley of the son of Hinnom, and which is in the valley of the giants on the north, and descended to the valley of Hinnom, to the side of Jebusi on the south, and descended to Enrogel,

06:018:018 And passed along toward the side over against Arabah northward, and went down unto Arabah:
06:018:019 And the border passed along to the side of Bethhoglah northward: and the outgoings of the border were at the north bay of the salt sea at the south end of Jordan: this was the south coast.
06:018:020 And Jordan was the border of it on the east side. This was theinheritance of the children of Benjamin, by the coasts thereofround about, according to their families.

06:019:009 Out of the portion of the children of Judah was the inheritance of the children of Simeon: for the part of the children of Judah was too much for them: therefore the children of Simeon had their inheritance within the inheritance of them.
06:019:010 And the third lot came up for the children of Zebulunaccording to their families: and the border of theirinheritance was unto Sarid:
06:019:011 And their border went up toward the sea, and Maralah, andreached to Dabbasheth, and reached to the river that is beforeJokneam;
06:019:012 And turned from Sarid eastward toward the sunrising unto theborder of Chislothtabor, and then goeth out to Daberath, andgoeth up to Japhia,

06:019:047 And the coast of the children of Dan went out too little for them: therefore the children of Dan went up to fight against Leshem, and took it, and smote it with the edge of the sword, and possessed it, and dwelt therein, and called Leshem, Dan, after the name of Dan their father.
06:019:048 This is the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Dan according to their families, these cities with their villages.
06:019:049 When they had made an end of dividing the land for inheritanceby their coasts, the children of Israel gave an inheritance toJoshua the son of Nun among them:
06:019:050 According to the word of the LORD they gave him the city whichhe asked, even Timnathserah in mount Ephraim: and he built thecity, and dwelt therein.
06:019:051 These are the inheritances, which Eleazar the priest, and Joshua the son of Nun, and the heads of the fathers of the tribes of the children of Israel, divided for an inheritance by lot in Shiloh before the LORD, at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation. So they made an end of dividing the country.
06:020:001 The LORD also spake unto Joshua, saying,
06:020:002 Speak to the children of Israel, saying, Appoint out for youcities of refuge, whereof I spake unto you by the hand ofMoses:
06:020:003 That the slayer that killeth any person unawares andunwittingly may flee thither: and they shall be your refugefrom the avenger of blood.
06:020:004 And when he that doth flee unto one of those cities shall stand at the entering of the gate of the city, and shall declare his cause in the ears of the elders of that city, they shall take him into the city unto them, and give him a place, that he may dwell among them.
06:020:005 And if the avenger of blood pursue after him, then they shall not deliver the slayer up into his hand; because he smote his neighbour unwittingly, and hated him not beforetime.
06:020:006 And he shall dwell in that city, until he stand before the congregation for judgment, and until the death of the high priest that shall be in those days: then shall the slayer return, and come unto his own city, and unto his own house, unto the city from whence he fled.
06:020:007 And they appointed Kedesh in Galilee in mount Naphtali, and Shechem in mount Ephraim, and Kirjatharba, which is Hebron, in the mountain of Judah.
06:020:008 And on the other side Jordan by Jericho eastward, they assigned Bezer in the wilderness upon the plain out of the tribe of Reuben, and Ramoth in Gilead out of the tribe of Gad, and Golan in Bashan out of the tribe of Manasseh.
06:020:009 These were the cities appointed for all the children of Israel, and for the stranger that sojourneth among them, that whosoever killeth any person at unawares might flee thither, and not die by the hand of the avenger of blood, until he stood before the congregation.
06:021:001 Then came near the heads of the fathers of the Levites unto Eleazar the priest, and unto Joshua the son of Nun, and unto the heads of the fathers of the tribes of the children of Israel;
06:021:002 And they spake unto them at Shiloh in the land of Canaan,saying, The LORD commanded by the hand of Moses to give uscities to dwell in, with the suburbs thereof for our cattle.
06:021:003 And the children of Israel gave unto the Levites out of theirinheritance, at the commandment of the LORD, these cities andtheir suburbs.
06:021:004 And the lot came out for the families of the Kohathites: and the children of Aaron the priest, which were of the Levites, had by lot out of the tribe of Judah, and out of the tribe of Simeon, and out of the tribe of Benjamin, thirteen cities.
06:021:005 And the rest of the children of Kohath had by lot out of the families of the tribe of Ephraim, and out of the tribe of Dan, and out of the half tribe of Manasseh, ten cities.

06:021:008 And the children of Israel gave by lot unto the Levites thesecities with their suburbs, as the LORD commanded by the handof Moses.
06:021:009 And they gave out of the tribe of the children of Judah, andout of the tribe of the children of Simeon, these cities whichare here mentioned by name.
06:021:010 Which the children of Aaron, being of the families of theKohathites, who were of the children of Levi, had: for theirswas the first lot.
06:021:011 And they gave them the city of Arba the father of Anak, whichcity is Hebron, in the hill country of Judah, with the suburbsthereof round about it.
06:021:012 But the fields of the city, and the villages thereof, gave they to Caleb the son of Jephunneh for his possession.
06:021:013 Thus they gave to the children of Aaron the priest Hebron with her suburbs, to be a city of refuge for the slayer; and Libnah with her suburbs,
06:021:014 And Jattir with her suburbs, and Eshtemoa with her suburbs,
06:021:015 And Holon with her suburbs, and Debir with her suburbs,

06:021:021 For they gave them Shechem with her suburbs in mount Ephraim,to be a city of refuge for the slayer; and Gezer with hersuburbs,

06:021:041 All the cities of the Levites within the possession of thechildren of Israel were forty and eight cities with theirsuburbs.
06:021:042 These cities were every one with their suburbs round about them: thus were all these cities.
06:021:043 And the LORD gave unto Israel all the land which he sware to give unto their fathers; and they possessed it, and dwelt therein.
06:021:044 And the LORD gave them rest round about, according to all that he sware unto their fathers: and there stood not a man of all their enemies before them; the LORD delivered all their enemies into their hand.
06:021:045 There failed not ought of any good thing which the LORD hadspoken unto the house of Israel; all came to pass.
06:022:001 Then Joshua called the Reubenites, and the Gadites, and thehalf tribe of Manasseh,
06:022:002 And said unto them, Ye have kept all that Moses the servant ofthe LORD commanded you, and have obeyed my voice in all that Icommanded you:
06:022:003 Ye have not left your brethren these many days unto this day,but have kept the charge of the commandment of the LORD yourGod.
06:022:004 And now the LORD your God hath given rest unto your brethren, as he promised them: therefore now return ye, and get you unto your tents, and unto the land of your possession, which Moses the servant of the LORD gave you on the other side Jordan.
06:022:005 But take diligent heed to do the commandment and the law, which Moses the servant of the LORD charged you, to love the LORD your God, and to walk in all his ways, and to keep his commandments, and to cleave unto him, and to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul.
06:022:006 So Joshua blessed them, and sent them away: and they went unto their tents.
06:022:007 Now to the one half of the tribe of Manasseh Moses had given possession in Bashan: but unto the other half thereof gave Joshua among their brethren on this side Jordan westward. And when Joshua sent them away also unto their tents, then he blessed them,
06:022:008 And he spake unto them, saying, Return with much riches unto your tents, and with very much cattle, with silver, and with gold, and with brass, and with iron, and with very much raiment: divide the spoil of your enemies with your brethren.
06:022:009 And the children of Reuben and the children of Gad and the half tribe of Manasseh returned, and departed from the children of Israel out of Shiloh, which is in the land of Canaan, to go unto the country of Gilead, to the land of their possession, whereof they were possessed, according to the word of the LORD by the hand of Moses.
06:022:010 And when they came unto the borders of Jordan, that are in theland of Canaan, the children of Reuben and the children of Gadand the half tribe of Manasseh built there an altar by Jordan,a great altar to see to.
06:022:011 And the children of Israel heard say, Behold, the children ofReuben and the children of Gad and the half tribe of Manassehhave built an altar over against the land of Canaan, in theborders of Jordan, at the passage of the children of Israel.
06:022:012 And when the children of Israel heard of it, the whole congregation of the children of Israel gathered themselves together at Shiloh, to go up to war against them.
06:022:013 And the children of Israel sent unto the children of Reuben, and to the children of Gad, and to the half tribe of Manasseh, into the land of Gilead, Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest,
06:022:014 And with him ten princes, of each chief house a princethroughout all the tribes of Israel; and each one was an headof the house of their fathers among the thousands of Israel.
06:022:015 And they came unto the children of Reuben, and to the childrenof Gad, and to the half tribe of Manasseh, unto the land ofGilead, and they spake with them, saying,
