ASV_Strong : Joshua 13
1. Now Joshua[H3091] was old[H2204] and well stricken[H935] in years[H3117]; and Jehovah[H3068] said[H559] unto him[H2204], Thou art old and well stricken[H935] in years[H3117], and there remaineth[H7604] yet very[H3966] much[H7235] land[H776] to be possessed[H3423].
2. This is the land[H776] that yet remaineth[H7604]: all the regions[H1552] of the Philistines[H6430], and all the Geshurites[H1651];
3. from the Shihor[H7883], which is before[H6440] Egypt[H4714], even unto the border[H1366] of Ekron[H6138] northward[H6828], which is reckoned[H2803] to the Canaanites[H3669]; the five[H2568] lords[H5633] of the Philistines[H6430]; the Gazites[H5841], and the Ashdodites[H796], the Ashkelonites[H832], the Gittites[H1663], and the Ekronites[H6139]; also the Avvim[H5761],
4. on the south[H8486]; all the land[H776] of the Canaanites[H3669], and Mearah[H4632] that belongeth to the Sidonians[H6722], unto Aphek[H663], to the border[H1366] of the Amorites[H567];
5. and the land[H776] of the Gebalites[H1382], and all Lebanon[H3844], toward the sunrising[H4217], from Baal-gad[H1171] under mount[H2022] Hermon[H2768] unto the entrance[H935] of Hamath[H2574];
6. all the inhabitants[H3427] of the hill-country[H2022] from Lebanon[H3844] unto Misrephoth-maim[H4956], even all the Sidonians[H6722]; them will I drive out[H3423] from before[H6440] the children[H1121] of Israel[H3478]: only allot[H5307] thou it unto Israel[H3478] for an inheritance[H5159], as I have commanded thee[H6680].
7. Now therefore divide[H2505] this land[H776] for an inheritance[H5159] unto the nine[H8672] tribes[H7626], and the[H2677] half-tribe[H7626] of Manasseh[H4519].
8. With him the Reubenites[H7206] and the Gadites[H1425] received[H3947] their inheritance[H5159], which Moses[H4872] gave[H5414] them[H5676], beyond the Jordan[H3383] eastward[H4217], even as Moses[H4872] the servant[H5650] of Jehovah[H3068] gave them[H5414]:
9. from Aroer[H6177], that is on the edge[H8193] of the valley[H5158] of the Arnon[H769], and the city[H5892] that is in the middle[H8432] of the valley[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], who reigned[H4427] 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 Maacathites[H4602], and all mount[H2022] Hermon[H2768], and all Bashan[H1316] unto Salecah[H5548];
12. all the kingdom[H4468] of Og[H5747] in Bashan[H1316], who reigned[H4427] in Ashtaroth[H6252] and in Edrei[H154] (the same was left[H7604] of the remnant[H3499] of the Rephaim[H7497]); for these did Moses[H4872] smite[H5221], and drove them out[H3423].
13. Nevertheless the children[H1121] of Israel[H3478] drove[H3423] not out the Geshurites[H1651], nor the Maacathites[H4602]: but Geshur[H1651] and Maacath[H4602] dwell[H3427] in the midst[H7130] of Israel[H3478] unto this day[H3117].
14. Only unto the tribe[H7626] of Levi[H3878] he gave[H5414] no inheritance[H5159]; the offerings[H801] of Jehovah[H3068], the God[H430] of Israel[H3478], made by fire[H801] are his inheritance[H5159], as he spake unto him[H1696].
15. And Moses[H4872] gave[H5414] unto the tribe[H4294] of the children[H1121] of Reuben[H7205] according to their families[H4940].
16. And their border[H1366] was from Aroer[H6177], that is on the edge[H8193] of the valley[H5158] of the Arnon[H769], and the city[H5892] that is in the middle[H8432] of the valley[H5158], and all the plain[H4334] by Medeba[H4311];
17. Heshbon[H2809], and all its cities[H5892] that are in the plain[H4334]; Dibon[H1769], and Bamoth-baal[H1120], and Beth-baal[H1010]-meon,
18. and Jahaz[H3096], and Kedemoth[H6932], and Mephaath[H4158],
19. and Kiriathaim[H7156], and Sibmah[H7643], and Zereth-shahar[H6890] in the mount[H2022] of the valley[H6010],
20. and Beth-peor[H1047], and the slopes of Pisgah[H798], 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], who reigned[H4427] in Heshbon[H2809], whom Moses[H4872] smote[H5221] with the chiefs[H5387] of Midian[H4080], Evi[H189], and Rekem[H7552], and Zur[H6698], and Hur[H2354], and Reba[H7254], the princes[H5257] of Sihon[H5511], that dwelt[H3427] in the land[H776].
22. Balaam[H1109] also the son[H1121] of Beor[H1160], the soothsayer[H7080], did the children[H1121] of Israel[H3478] slay[H2026] with the sword[H2719] among the rest[H413] of their slain[H2491].
23. And the border[H1366] of the children[H1121] of Reuben[H7205] was the Jordan[H3383], and the border[H1366] thereof[H5159]. This was the inheritance of the children[H1121] of Reuben[H7205] according to their families[H4940], the cities[H5892] and the villages thereof[H2691].
24. And Moses[H4872] gave[H5414] unto the tribe[H4294] of Gad[H1410], unto the children[H1121] of Gad[H1410], according to their families[H4940].
25. And their border[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-haram[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], the Jordan[H3383] and the border[H1366] thereof[H7097], unto the uttermost part of the sea[H3220] of Chinnereth[H3672] beyond[H5676] the Jordan[H3383] eastward[H4217].
28. This is the inheritance[H5159] of the children[H1121] of Gad[H1410] according to their families[H4940], the cities[H5892] and the villages thereof[H2691].
29. And Moses[H4872] gave[H5414] inheritance unto the[H2677] half-tribe[H7626] of Manasseh[H4519]: and it was for the[H2677] half-tribe[H4294] of the children[H1121] of Manasseh[H4519] according to their families[H4940].
30. And their border[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], the cities[H5892] of the kingdom[H4468] of Og[H5747] in Bashan[H1316], were for the children[H1121] of Machir[H4353] the son[H1121] of Manasseh[H4519], even for the half[H2677] of the children[H1121] of Machir[H4353] according to their families[H4940].
32. These are the inheritances[H5157] which Moses[H4872] distributed in the plains[H6160] of Moab[H4124], beyond[H5676] the Jordan[H3383] at Jericho[H3405], eastward[H4217].
33. But unto the tribe[H7626] of Levi[H3878] Moses[H4872] gave[H5414] no inheritance[H5159]: Jehovah[H3068], the God[H430] of Israel[H3478], is their inheritance[H5159], as he spake unto them[H1696].
