Joshua 19:1-21

The families of the tribe of Simeon received the second assignment of land, which was located within the territory of Judah. Their inheritance included the towns of Beersheba, Moladah, Hazar-Shual, Balah, Ezem, Eltolad, Bethul, Hormah, Ziklag, Beth Marcaboth, Hazar-Susah, Beth Lebaoth, and Sharuhen—thirteen towns with their villages. In addition, they received four other cities, along with the villages around them: Ain, Rimmon, Ether, and Ashan. Simeon’s territory included all the cities and villages as far south as the town of Baalath Beer, which is also known as Ramah in the Negeb. The families of Simeon received their inheritance from Judah’s share of land because Judah’s portion exceeded what they needed. So the inheritance of the families of Simeon was within the territory of Judah. The families of the tribe of Zebulun received the third assignment of land. Their boundary reached as far southeast as the city of Sarid. Going west, it ran to Maralah, touched Dabbesheth, and extended to the stream near Jokneam. In the other direction, the boundary line went east to the border of Chisloth-Tabor, and from there to Daberath and Japhia; then it continued east of Gath-Hepher, Eth Kazin, Rimmon, and turned toward Neah. The northern boundary of Zebulun passed Hannathon and ended at the valley of Iphtah El. Their land encompassed twelve cities, including Kattath, Nahalal, Shimeon, Iralah, and Bethlehem. Zebulun’s families inherited all these towns and their villages. The families of the tribe of Issachar received the fourth assignment of land. Their inheritance included Jezreel, Kesulloth, Shunem, Hapharaim, Shion, Anaharath, Rabbith, Kishion, Ebez, Remeth, En Gannim, En Haddah, and Beth Pazzez.
