Joshua 13

1
English · Berean Standard Bible

Now Joshua was old and well along in years, and the LORD said to him, “You are old and well along in years, but very much of the land remains to be possessed.

2
English · Berean Standard Bible

This is the land that remains: All the territory of the Philistines and the Geshurites,

3
English · Berean Standard Bible

from the Shihor east of Egypt to the territory of Ekron on the north (considered to be Canaanite territory)—that of the five Philistine rulers of Gaza, Ashdod, Ashkelon, Gath, and Ekron, as well as that of the Avvites;

4
English · Berean Standard Bible

to the south, all the land of the Canaanites, from Mearah of the Sidonians to Aphek, as far as the border of the Amorites;

5
English · Berean Standard Bible

the land of the Gebalites; and all Lebanon to the east, from Baal-gad below Mount Hermon to Lebo-hamath.

6
English · Berean Standard Bible

All the inhabitants of the hill country from Lebanon to Misrephoth-maim—all the Sidonians—I Myself will drive out before the Israelites. Be sure to divide it by lot as an inheritance to Israel, as I have commanded you.

7
English · Berean Standard Bible

Now therefore divide this land as an inheritance to the nine tribes and the half-tribe of Manasseh.”

8
English · Berean Standard Bible

The other half of Manasseh, along with the Reubenites and Gadites, had received the inheritance Moses had given them beyond the Jordan to the east, just as Moses the servant of the LORD had assigned to them:

9
English · Berean Standard Bible

The area from Aroer on the rim of the Arnon Valley, along with the city in the middle of the valley, the whole plateau of Medeba as far as Dibon,

10
English · Berean Standard Bible

and all the cities of Sihon king of the Amorites who reigned in Heshbon, as far as the border of the Ammonites;

11
English · Berean Standard Bible

also Gilead and the territory of the Geshurites and Maacathites, all of Mount Hermon, and all Bashan as far as Salecah—

12
English · Berean Standard Bible

the whole kingdom of Og in Bashan, who had reigned in Ashtaroth and Edrei and had remained as a remnant of the Rephaim. Moses had struck them down and dispossessed them,

13
English · Berean Standard Bible

but the Israelites did not drive out the Geshurites or the Maacathites. So Geshur and Maacath dwell among the Israelites to this day.

14
English · Berean Standard Bible

To the tribe of Levi, however, Moses had given no inheritance. The food offerings to the LORD, the God of Israel, are their inheritance, just as He had promised them.

15
English · Berean Standard Bible

This is what Moses had given to the clans of the tribe of Reuben:

16
English · Berean Standard Bible

The territory from Aroer on the rim of the Arnon Valley, along with the city in the middle of the valley, to the whole plateau beyond Medeba,

17
English · Berean Standard Bible

to Heshbon and all its cities on the plateau, including Dibon, Bamoth-baal, Beth-baal-meon,

18
English · Berean Standard Bible

Jahaz, Kedemoth, Mephaath,

19
English · Berean Standard Bible

Kiriathaim, Sibmah, Zereth-shahar on the hill in the valley,

20
English · Berean Standard Bible

Beth-peor, the slopes of Pisgah, and Beth-jeshimoth—

21
English · Berean Standard Bible

all the cities of the plateau and all the kingdom of Sihon king of the Amorites, who reigned in Heshbon until Moses killed him and the chiefs of Midian (Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur, and Reba), the princes of Sihon who lived in the land.

22
English · Berean Standard Bible

The Israelites also killed the diviner Balaam son of Beor along with the others they put to the sword.

23
English · Berean Standard Bible

And the border of the Reubenites was the bank of the Jordan. This was the inheritance of the clans of the Reubenites, including the cities and villages.

24
English · Berean Standard Bible

This is what Moses had given to the clans of the tribe of Gad:

25
English · Berean Standard Bible

The territory of Jazer, all the cities of Gilead, and half the land of the Ammonites as far as Aroer, near Rabbah;

26
English · Berean Standard Bible

the territory from Heshbon to Ramath-mizpeh and Betonim, and from Mahanaim to the border of Debir;

27
English · Berean Standard Bible

and in the valley, Beth-haram, Beth-nimrah, Succoth, and Zaphon, with the rest of the kingdom of Sihon king of Heshbon (the territory on the east side of the Jordan up to the edge of the Sea of Chinnereth).

28
English · Berean Standard Bible

This was the inheritance of the clans of the Gadites, including the cities and villages.

29
English · Berean Standard Bible

This is what Moses had given to the clans of the half-tribe of Manasseh, that is, to half the tribe of the descendants of Manasseh:

30
English · Berean Standard Bible

The territory from Mahanaim through all Bashan—all the kingdom of Og king of Bashan, including all the towns of Jair that are in Bashan, sixty cities;

31
English · Berean Standard Bible

half of Gilead; and Ashtaroth and Edrei, the royal cities of Og in Bashan. All this was for the clans of the descendants of Machir son of Manasseh, that is, half of the descendants of Machir.

32
English · Berean Standard Bible

These were the portions Moses had given them on the plains of Moab beyond the Jordan, east of Jericho.

33
English · Berean Standard Bible

To the tribe of Levi, however, Moses had given no inheritance. The LORD, the God of Israel, is their inheritance, just as He had promised them.
