1.    And Joshua was old, advanced in age, and Jehovah said to  him, Thou art old, advanced in age, and there remaineth yet  very much land to take possession of.
 
2.    This is the land that yet remaineth: all the districts of  the Philistines and all the Geshurites,
 
3.    from the Shihor, which floweth before Egypt, as far as  the borders of Ekron northward, and which is counted to the  Canaanite; five lordships of the Philistines: of Gazah, and of  Ashdod, of Eshkalon, of Gath, and of Ekron; also the Avvites;
 
4.    in the south, the whole land of the Canaanites, and Mearah  which belongeth to the Sidonians, unto Aphek, to the border  of the Amorites;
 
5.    and the land of the Giblites, and all Lebanon, toward the  sun-rising, from Baal-Gad at the foot of mount Hermon to the  entrance into Hamath;
 
6.    all the inhabitants of the hill-country from Lebanon to  Misrephoth-maim, all the Sidonians; I will dispossess them from  before the children of Israel. Only, partition it by lot to  Israel for an inheritance, as I have commanded thee.
 
7.    And now divide this land for an inheritance to the nine  tribes, and to half the tribe of Manasseh;
 
8.    with him the Reubenites and the Gadites have received their  inheritance, which Moses gave them, beyond the Jordan eastward,  as Moses the servant of Jehovah gave them:
 
9.    from Aroer, which is on the bank of the river Arnon, and  the city that is in the midst of the ravine, and all the  plateau of Medeba to Dibon,
 
10.    and all the cities of Sihon the king of the Amorites, who  reigned at Heshbon, to the border of the children of Ammon;
 
11.    and Gilead, and the border of the Geshurites and  Maachathites, and all mount Hermon, and the whole of Bashan to  Salcah;
 
12.    all the kingdom of Og in Bashan, who reigned at Ashtaroth  and at Edrei, who remained of the residue of the giants; and  Moses smote them and dispossessed them.
 
13.    But the children of Israel did not dispossess the  Geshurites nor the Maachathites; but the Geshurites and the  Maachathites dwell among the Israelites to this day.
 
14.    Only to the tribe of Levi he gave no inheritance: the  offerings by fire of Jehovah the God of Israel are their  inheritance, as he said to them.
 
15.    And Moses gave a portion to the tribe of the children of  Reuben according to their families.
 
16.    And their territory was from Aroer, which is on the bank  of the river Arnon, and the city that is in the midst of the  ravine, and all the plateau by Medeba;
 
17.    Heshbon, and all her cities that are in the plateau,  Dibon, and Bamoth-Baal, and Beth-Baal-meon,
 
18.    And Jahzah, and Kedemoth, and Mephaath,
 
19.    and Kirjathaim, and Sibmah, and Zereth-shahar in the  mountain of the vale,
 
20.    and Beth-Peor, and the slopes of Pisgah, and  Beth-jeshimoth;
 
21.    all the cities of the plateau, and the whole kingdom of  Sihon the king of the Amorites, who reigned at Heshbon, whom  Moses smote, him and the princes of Midian, Evi, and Rekem, and  Zur, and Hur, and Reba, the chiefs of Sihon dwelling in the  land.
 
22.    And Balaam the son of Beor, the diviner, did the children  of Israel kill with the sword among them that were slain by  them.
 
23.    And the border of the children of Reuben was the Jordan,  and its border. This is the inheritance of the children of  Reuben according to their families, the cities and their  hamlets.
 
24.    And Moses gave a portion to the tribe of Gad, to the  children of Gad according to their families.
 
25.    And their territory was Jaazer, and all the cities of  Gilead, and half the land of the children of Ammon, to Aroer  which is before 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, and Beth-Nimrah, and  Succoth, and Zaphon, the rest of the kingdom of Sihon the king  of Heshbon, the Jordan and its border, as far as the edge 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 their hamlets.
 
29.    And Moses gave a portion to half the tribe of Manasseh;  and for half the tribe of the children of Manasseh according to  their families:
 
30.    their territory was from Mahanaim, all Bashan, the whole  kingdom of Og the king of Bashan, and all the villages of Jair,  which are in Bashan, sixty cities.
 
31.    And half Gilead, and Ashtaroth, and Edrei, the cities of  the kingdom of Og in Bashan, belonged to the children of  Machir the son of Manasseh, to the one half of the children of  Machir according to their families.
 
32.    This is that which Moses allotted for inheritance in the  plains of Moab, beyond the Jordan of Jericho, eastward.
 
33.    But to the tribe of Levi Moses gave no inheritance:  Jehovah the God of Israel is their inheritance, as he said to  them.
