[1] Now Joshua was old and well advanced in years. Yahweh said to him, “You are old and advanced in years, and there remains yet very much land to be possessed. [2] “This is the land that still remains: all the regions of the Philistines, and all the Geshurites; [3] from the Shihor, which is before Egypt, even to the border of Ekron northward, which is counted as Canaanite; the five lords of the Philistines; the Gazites, and the Ashdodites, the Ashkelonites, the Gittites, and the Ekronites; also the Avvim, [4] on the south; all the land of the Canaanites, and Mearah that belongs to the Sidonians, to Aphek, to the border of the Amorites; [5] and the land of the Gebalites, and all Lebanon, toward the sunrise, from Baal Gad under Mount Hermon to the entrance of Hamath; [6] all the inhabitants of the hill country from Lebanon to Misrephoth Maim, even all the Sidonians. I will drive them out from before the children of Israel. Just allocate it to Israel for an inheritance, as I have commanded you. [7] Now therefore divide this land for an inheritance to the nine tribes and the half-tribe of Manasseh.” [8] With him the Reubenites and the Gadites received their inheritance, which Moses gave them, beyond the Jordan eastward, even as Moses the servant of Yahweh gave them: [9] from Aroer, that is on the edge of the valley of the Arnon, and the city that is in the middle of the valley, and all the plain of Medeba to Dibon; [10] and all the cities of Sihon king of the Amorites, who reigned in Heshbon, to the border of the children of Ammon; [11] and Gilead, and the border of the Geshurites and Maacathites, and all Mount Hermon, and all Bashan to Salecah; [12] all the kingdom of Og in Bashan, who reigned in Ashtaroth and in Edrei (who was left of the remnant of the Rephaim); for Moses attacked these, and drove them out. [13] Nevertheless the children of Israel didn’t drive out the Geshurites, nor the Maacathites: but Geshur and Maacath live within Israel to this day. [14] Only he gave no inheritance to the tribe of Levi. The offerings of Yahweh, the God of Israel, made by fire are his inheritance, as he spoke to him. [15] Moses gave to the tribe of the children of Reuben according to their families. [16] Their border was from Aroer, that is on the edge of the valley of the Arnon, and the city that is in the middle of the valley, and all the plain by Medeba; [17] Heshbon, and all its cities that are in the plain; Dibon, Bamoth Baal, Beth Baal Meon, [18] Jahaz, Kedemoth, Mephaath, [19] Kiriathaim, Sibmah, Zereth Shahar in the mount of the valley, [20] Beth Peor, the slopes of Pisgah, Beth Jeshimoth, [21] all the cities of the plain, and all the kingdom of Sihon king of the Amorites, who reigned in Heshbon, whom Moses struck with the chiefs of Midian, Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur, and Reba, the princes of Sihon, who lived in the land. [22] The children of Israel also killed Balaam the son of Beor, the soothsayer, with the sword, among the rest of their slain. [23] The border of the children of Reuben was the bank of the Jordan. This was the inheritance of the children of Reuben according to their families, the cities and its villages. [24] Moses gave to the tribe of Gad, to the children of Gad, according to their families. [25] Their border was Jazer, and all the cities of Gilead, and half the land of the children of Ammon, to Aroer that is near Rabbah; [26] and from Heshbon to Ramath Mizpeh, and Betonim; and from Mahanaim to the border of Debir; [27] and in the valley, Beth Haram, Beth Nimrah, Succoth, and Zaphon, the rest of the kingdom of Sihon king of Heshbon, the Jordan’s bank, to the uttermost part of the sea of Chinnereth beyond the Jordan eastward. [28] This is the inheritance of the children of Gad according to their families, the cities and its villages. [29] Moses gave an inheritance to the half-tribe of Manasseh. It was for the half-tribe of the children of Manasseh according to their families. [30] Their border was from Mahanaim, all Bashan, all the kingdom of Og king of Bashan, and all the villages of Jair, which are in Bashan, sixty cities. [31] Half Gilead, Ashtaroth, and Edrei, the cities of the kingdom of Og in Bashan, were for the children of Machir the son of Manasseh, even for the half of the children of Machir according to their families. [32] These are the inheritances which Moses distributed in the plains of Moab, beyond the Jordan at Jericho, eastward. [33] But Moses gave no inheritance to the tribe of Levi. Yahweh, the God of Israel, is their inheritance, as he spoke to them.
King James Version

Division of the Land

[1] Now Joshua H3091 was old H2204 (QalPerf) and stricken H935 (QalPerf) in years; H3117 and the Lord H3068 said H559 (QalImpf) unto him, Thou art old H2204 (QalPerf) and stricken H935 (QalPerf) in years, H3117 and there remaineth H7604 (NiphPerf) yet very H3966 much H7235 (HiphInf) land H776 to be possessed. H3423 (QalInf) [2] This is the land H776 that yet remaineth: H7604 (NiphPtc) all the borders H1552 of the Philistines, H6430 and all Geshuri, H1651 [3] from Sihor, H7883 which is before H6440 Egypt, H4714 even unto the borders H1366 of Ekron H6138 northward, H6828 which is counted H2803 (NiphImpf) to the Canaanite: H3669 five H2568 lords H5633 of the Philistines; H6430 the Gazathites, H5841 and the Ashdothites, H796 the Eshkalonites, H832 the Gittites, H1663 and the Ekronites; H6139 also the Avites: H5761 [4] from the south, H8486 all the land H776 of the Canaanites, H3669 and Mearah H4632§ that is beside the Sidonians, H6722 unto Aphek, H663 to the borders H1366 of the Amorites: H567 [5] and the land H776 of the Giblites, H1382 and all Lebanon, H3844 toward the sunrising, H4217 from Baal-gad H1171 under mount H2022 Hermon H2768 unto the entering H935 (QalInf) into Hamath. H2574 [6] All the inhabitants H3427 (QalActPtc) of the hill country H2022 from Lebanon H3844 unto Misrephoth-maim, H4956 and all the Sidonians, H6722 them will I drive out H3423 (HiphImpf) from before H6440 the children H1121 of Israel: H3478 only divide thou it by lot H5307 (HiphImpv) unto the Israelites H3478 for an inheritance, H5159 as I have commanded H6680 (PielPerf) thee. [7] Now therefore divide H2505 (PielImpv) this land H776 for an inheritance H5159 unto the nine H8672 tribes, H7626 and the half H2677 tribe H7626 of Manasseh, H4519 [8] with whom the Reubenites H7206 and the Gadites H1425 have received H3947 (QalPerf) their inheritance, H5159 which Moses H4872 gave H5414 (QalPerf) them, beyond H5676 Jordan H3383 eastward, H4217 even as Moses H4872 the servant H5650 of the Lord H3068 gave H5414 (QalPerf) them; [9] from Aroer, H6177 that is upon the bank H8193 of the river H5158 Arnon, H769 and the city H5892 that is in the midst H8432 of the river, H5158 and all the plain H4334 of Medeba H4311 unto Dibon; H1769 [10] and all the cities H5892 of Sihon H5511 king H4428 of the Amorites, H567 which reigned H4427 (QalPerf) in Heshbon, H2809 unto the border H1366 of the children H1121 of Ammon; H5983 [11] and Gilead, H1568 and the border H1366 of the Geshurites H1651 and Maachathites, H4602 and all mount H2022 Hermon, H2768 and all Bashan H1316 unto Salcah; H5548 [12] all the kingdom H4468 of Og H5747 in Bashan, H1316 which reigned H4427 (QalPerf) in Ashtaroth H6252 and in Edrei, H154 who remained H7604 (NiphPerf) of the remnant H3499 of the giants: H7497 for these did Moses H4872 smite, H5221 (HiphImpf) and cast them out. H3423 (HiphImpf) [13] Nevertheless the children H1121 of Israel H3478 expelled H3423 (HiphPerf) not the Geshurites, H1651 nor the Maachathites: H4602 but the Geshurites H1650 and the Maachathites H4601 dwell H3427 (QalImpf) among H7130 the Israelites H3478 until this day. H3117 [14] Only unto the tribe H7626 of Levi H3878 he gave H5414 (QalPerf) none inheritance; H5159 the sacrifices H801 of the Lord H3068 God H430 of Israel H3478 made by fire H801 are their inheritance, H5159 as he said H1696 (PielPerf) unto them.

In the East

[15] And Moses H4872 gave H5414 (QalImpf) unto the tribe H4294 of the children H1121 of Reuben H7205 inheritance according to their families. H4940 [16] And their coast H1366 was from Aroer, H6177 that is on the bank H8193 of the river H5158 Arnon, H769 and the city H5892 that is in the midst H8432 of the river, H5158 and all the plain H4334 by Medeba; H4311 [17] Heshbon, H2809 and all her cities H5892 that are in the plain; H4334 Dibon, H1769 and Bamoth-baal, H1120 and Beth-baal-meon, H1010 [18] and Jahaza, H3096 and Kedemoth, H6932 and Mephaath, H4158 [19] and Kirjathaim, H7156 and Sibmah, H7643 and Zareth-shahar H6890 in the mount H2022 of the valley, H6010 [20] and Beth-peor, H1047 and Ashdoth-pisgah, H798 (Ketiv)§ and Beth-jeshimoth, H1020 [21] and all the cities H5892 of the plain, H4334 and all the kingdom H4468 of Sihon H5511 king H4428 of the Amorites, H567 which reigned H4427 (QalPerf) in Heshbon, H2809 whom Moses H4872 smote H5221 (HiphPerf) with the princes H5387 of Midian, H4080 Evi, H189 and Rekem, H7552 and Zur, H6698 and Hur, H2354 and Reba, H7254 which were dukes H5257 of Sihon, H5511 dwelling H3427 (QalActPtc) in the country. H776 [22] Balaam H1109 also the son H1121 of Beor, H1160 the soothsayer, H7080 (QalActPtc)§ did the children H1121 of Israel H3478 slay H2026 (QalPerf) with the sword H2719 among them H413 that were slain H2491 by them. [23] And the border H1366 of the children H1121 of Reuben H7205 was Jordan, H3383 and the border H1366 thereof. This was the inheritance H5159 of the children H1121 of Reuben H7205 after their families, H4940 the cities H5892 and the villages H2691 thereof. [24] And Moses H4872 gave H5414 (QalImpf) inheritance unto the tribe H4294 of Gad, H1410 even unto the children H1121 of Gad H1410 according to their families. H4940 [25] And their coast H1366 was Jazer, H3270 and all the cities H5892 of Gilead, H1568 and half H2677 the land H776 of the children H1121 of Ammon, H5983 unto Aroer H6177 that is before H6440 Rabbah; H7237 [26] and from Heshbon H2809 unto Ramath-mizpeh, H7434 and Betonim; H993 and from Mahanaim H4266 unto the border H1366 of Debir; H1688 [27] and in the valley, H6010 Beth-aram, H1027 and Beth-nimrah, H1039 and Succoth, H5523 and Zaphon, H6829 the rest H3499 of the kingdom H4468 of Sihon H5511 king H4428 of Heshbon, H2809 Jordan H3383 and his border, H1366 even unto the edge H7097 of the sea H3220 of Chinnereth H3672 on the other side H5676 Jordan H3383 eastward. H4217 [28] This is the inheritance H5159 of the children H1121 of Gad H1410 after their families, H4940 the cities, H5892 and their villages. H2691 [29] And Moses H4872 gave H5414 (QalImpf) inheritance unto the half H2677 tribe H7626 of Manasseh: H4519 and this was the possession of the half H2677 tribe H4294 of the children H1121 of Manasseh H4519 by their families. H4940 [30] And their coast H1366 was from Mahanaim, H4266 all Bashan, H1316 all the kingdom H4468 of Og H5747 king H4428 of Bashan, H1316 and all the towns H2333 of Jair, H2971 which are in Bashan, H1316 threescore H8346 cities: H5892 [31] and half H2677 Gilead, H1568 and Ashtaroth, H6252 and Edrei, H154 cities H5892 of the kingdom H4468 of Og H5747 in Bashan, H1316 were pertaining unto the children H1121 of Machir H4353 the son H1121 of Manasseh, H4519 even to the one half H2677 of the children H1121 of Machir H4353 by their families. H4940 [32] These are the countries which Moses H4872 did distribute for inheritance H5157 (PielPerf) in the plains H6160 of Moab, H4124 on the other side H5676 Jordan, H3383 by Jericho, H3405 eastward. H4217 [33] But unto the tribe H7626 of Levi H3878 Moses H4872 gave H5414 (QalPerf) not any inheritance: H5159 the Lord H3068 God H430 of Israel H3478 was their inheritance, H5159 as he said H1696 (PielPerf) unto them.
