| 1 | Now these are the kings of the land, whom the people of Israel defeated, and took possession of their land beyond the Jordan toward the sunrising, from the valley of the Arnon to Mount Hermon, with all the Arabah eastward: |
| 2 | Sihon king of the Amorites who dwelt at Heshbon, and ruled from Aro'er, which is on the edge of the valley of the Arnon, and from the middle of the valley as far as the river Jabbok, the boundary of the Ammonites, that is, half of Gilead, |
| 3 | and the Arabah to the Sea of Chin'neroth eastward, and in the direction of Beth-jesh'imoth, to the sea of the Arabah, the Salt Sea, southward to the foot of the slopes of Pisgah; |
| 4 | and Og king of Bashan, one of the remnant of the Reph'aim, who dwelt at Ash'taroth and at Ed're-i |
| 5 | and ruled over Mount Hermon and Sal'ecah and all Bashan to the boundary of the Gesh'urites and the Ma-ac'athites, and over half of Gilead to the boundary of Sihon king of Heshbon. |
| 6 | Moses, the servant of the LORD, and the people of Israel defeated them; and Moses the servant of the LORD gave their land for a possession to the Reubenites and the Gadites and the half-tribe of Manas'seh. |
| 7 | And these are the kings of the land whom Joshua and the people of Israel defeated on the west side of the Jordan, from Ba'al-gad in the valley of Lebanon to Mount Halak, that rises toward Se'ir (and Joshua gave their land to the tribes of Israel as a possession according to their allotments, |
| 8 | in the hill country, in the lowland, in the Arabah, in the slopes, in the wilderness, and in the Negeb, the land of the Hittites, the Amorites, the Canaanites, the Per'izzites, the Hivites, and the Jeb'usites): |
| 9 | the king of Jericho, one; the king of Ai, which is beside Bethel, one; |
| 10 | the king of Jerusalem, one; the king of Hebron, one; |
| 11 | the king of Jarmuth, one; the king of Lachish, one; |
| 12 | the king of Eglon, one; the king of Gezer, one; |
| 13 | the king of Debir, one; the king of Geder, one; |
| 14 | the king of Hormah, one; the king of Arad, one; |
| 15 | the king of Libnah, one; the king of Adullam, one; |
| 16 | the king of Makke'dah, one; the king of Bethel, one; |
| 17 | the king of Tap'puah, one; the king of Hepher, one; |
| 18 | the king of Aphek, one; the king of Lashar'on, one; |
| 19 | the king of Madon, one; the king of Hazor, one; |
| 20 | the king of Shim'ron-me'ron, one; the king of Ach'shaph, one; |
| 21 | the king of Ta'anach, one; the king of Megid'do, one; |
| 22 | the king of Kedesh, one; the king of Jok'ne-am in Carmel, one; |
| 23 | the king of Dor in Naphath-dor, one; the king of Goi'im in Galilee, one; |
| 24 | the king of Tirzah, one: in all, thirty-one kings. |
| 1 | Now Joshua was old and advanced in years; and the LORD 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 yet remains: all the regions of the Philistines, and all those of the Gesh'urites |
| 3 | (from the Shihor, which is east of Egypt, northward to the boundary of Ekron, it is reckoned as Canaanite; there are five rulers of the Philistines, those of Gaza, Ashdod, Ash'kelon, Gath, and Ekron), and those of the Avvim, |
| 4 | in the south, all the land of the Canaanites, and Mear'ah which belongs to the Sido'nians, to Aphek, to the boundary of the Amorites, |
| 5 | and the land of the Geb'alites, and all Lebanon, toward the sunrising, from Ba'al-gad below Mount Hermon to the entrance of Hamath, |
| 6 | all the inhabitants of the hill country from Lebanon to Mis'rephoth-ma'im, even all the Sido'nians. I will myself drive them out from before the people of Israel; only allot the land to Israel for an inheritance, as I have commanded you. |
| 7 | Now therefore divide this land for an inheritance to the nine tribes and half the tribe of Manas'seh." |
| 8 | With the other half of the tribe of Manas'seh the Reubenites and the Gadites received their inheritance, which Moses gave them, beyond the Jordan eastward, as Moses the servant of the LORD gave them: |
| 9 | from Aro'er, which is on the edge of the valley of the Arnon, and the city that is in the middle of the valley, and all the tableland of Med'eba as far as Dibon; |
| 10 | and all the cities of Sihon king of the Amorites, who reigned in Heshbon, as far as the boundary of the Ammonites; |
| 11 | and Gilead, and the region of the Gesh'urites and Ma-ac'athites, and all Mount Hermon, and all Bashan to Sal'ecah; |
| 12 | all the kingdom of Og in Bashan, who reigned in Ash'taroth and in Ed're-i (he alone was left of the remnant of the Reph'aim); these Moses had defeated and driven out. |
| 13 | Yet the people of Israel did not drive out the Gesh'urites or the Ma-ac'athites; but Geshur and Ma'acath dwell in the midst of Israel to this day. |
| 14 | To the tribe of Levi alone Moses gave no inheritance; the offerings by fire to the LORD God of Israel are their inheritance, as he said to him. |
| 15 | And Moses gave an inheritance to the tribe of the Reubenites according to their families. |
| 16 | So their territory was from Aro'er, which is on the edge of the valley of the Arnon, and the city that is in the middle of the valley, and all the tableland by Med'eba; |
| 17 | with Heshbon, and all its cities that are in the tableland; Dibon, and Ba'moth-ba'al, and Beth-ba'al-me'on, |
| 18 | and Jahaz, and Ked'emoth, and Meph'aath, |
| 19 | and Kir'iatha'im, and Sibmah, and Zer'eth-sha'har on the hill of the valley, |
| 20 | and Beth-pe'or, and the slopes of Pisgah, and Beth-jesh'imoth, |
| 21 | that is, all the cities of the tableland, and all the kingdom of Sihon king of the Amorites, who reigned in Heshbon, whom Moses defeated with the leaders of Mid'ian, Evi and Rekem and Zur and Hur and Reba, the princes of Sihon, who dwelt in the land. |
| 22 | Balaam also, the son of Be'or, the soothsayer, the people of Israel killed with the sword among the rest of their slain. |
| 23 | And the border of the people of Reuben was the Jordan as a boundary. This was the inheritance of the Reubenites, according to their families with their cities and villages. |
| 24 | And Moses gave an inheritance also to the tribe of the Gadites, according to their families. |
| 25 | Their territory was Jazer, and all the cities of Gilead, and half the land of the Ammonites, to Aro'er, which is east of Rabbah, |
| 26 | and from Heshbon to Ra'math-miz'peh and Bet'onim, and from Mahana'im to the territory of Debir, |
| 27 | and in the valley Beth-ha'ram, Beth-nim'rah, Succoth, and Zaphon, the rest of the kingdom of Sihon king of Heshbon, having the Jordan as a boundary, to the lower end of the Sea of Chin'nereth, eastward beyond the Jordan. |
| 28 | This is the inheritance of the Gadites according to their families, with their cities and villages. |
| 29 | And Moses gave an inheritance to the half-tribe of Manas'seh; it was allotted to the half-tribe of the Manas'sites according to their families. |
| 30 | Their region extended from Mahana'im, through all Bashan, the whole kingdom of Og king of Bashan, and all the towns of Ja'ir, which are in Bashan, sixty cities, |
| 31 | and half Gilead, and Ash'taroth, and Ed're-i, the cities of the kingdom of Og in Bashan; these were allotted to the people of Machir the son of Manas'seh for the half of the Machirites according to their families. |
| 32 | These are the inheritances which Moses distributed in the plains of Moab, beyond the Jordan east of Jericho. |
| 33 | But to the tribe of Levi Moses gave no inheritance; the LORD God of Israel is their inheritance, as he said to them. |
| 1 | And these are the inheritances which the people of Israel received in the land of Canaan, which Elea'zar the priest, and Joshua the son of Nun, and the heads of the fathers' houses of the tribes of the people of Israel distributed to them. |
| 2 | Their inheritance was by lot, as the LORD had commanded Moses for the nine and one-half tribes. |
| 3 | For Moses had given an inheritance to the two and one-half tribes beyond the Jordan; but to the Levites he gave no inheritance among them. |
| 4 | For the people of Joseph were two tribes, Manas'seh and E'phraim; and no portion was given to the Levites in the land, but only cities to dwell in, with their pasture lands for their cattle and their substance. |
| 5 | The people of Israel did as the LORD commanded Moses; they allotted the land. |
| 6 | Then the people of Judah came to Joshua at Gilgal; and Caleb the son of Jephun'neh the Ken'izzite said to him, "You know what the LORD said to Moses the man of God in Ka'desh-bar'nea concerning you and me. |
| 7 | I was forty years old when Moses the servant of the LORD sent me from Ka'desh-bar'nea to spy out the land; and I brought him word again as it was in my heart. |
| 8 | But my brethren who went up with me made the heart of the people melt; yet I wholly followed the LORD my God. |
| 9 | And Moses swore on that day, saying, `Surely the land on which your foot has trodden shall be an inheritance for you and your children for ever, because you have wholly followed the LORD my God.' |
| 10 | And now, behold, the LORD has kept me alive, as he said, these forty-five years since the time that the LORD spoke this word to Moses, while Israel walked in the wilderness; and now, lo, I am this day eighty-five years old. |
| 11 | I am still as strong to this day as I was in the day that Moses sent me; my strength now is as my strength was then, for war, and for going and coming. |
| 12 | So now give me this hill country of which the LORD spoke on that day; for you heard on that day how the Anakim were there, with great fortified cities: it may be that the LORD will be with me, and I shall drive them out as the LORD said." |
| 13 | Then Joshua blessed him; and he gave Hebron to Caleb the son of Jephun'neh for an inheritance. |
| 14 | So Hebron became the inheritance of Caleb the son of Jephun'neh the Ken'izzite to this day, because he wholly followed the LORD, the God of Israel. |
| 15 | Now the name of Hebron formerly was Kir'iath-ar'ba; this Arba was the greatest man among the Anakim. And the land had rest from war. |
