Chapter 19
Land for Simeon's tribe
1The second part of the land was for Simeon's tribe, clan by clan. Their land was in the middle of Judah's land. 2It included these towns:
Beersheba (also called Sheba), Moladah, 3Hazar-Shual, Balah, Ezem, 4Eltolad, Bethul, Hormah, 5Ziklag, Beth Marcaboth, Hazar-Susah, 6Beth Lebaoth and Sharuhen.
There were 13 towns and their villages.
7He also gave them Ain, Rimmon, Ether and Ashan.
There were four towns and their villages. 8This included all the villages near them as far as Baalath Beer (also called Ramah, in the Negev).
That was the land that Joshua gave to the families of Simeon's tribe. 9Because Judah had received more land than they needed, Joshua took some of their land for Simeon. So Simeon's tribe lived inside the land that Joshua had given to Judah. #19:9 Simeon was the smallest tribe.
Land for Zebulun's tribe
10The next part of the land was for Zebulun's tribe, clan by clan. The border of their land went as far as Sarid. 11Then it went west to Maralah, it touched Dabbesheth, and it went to the valley near Jokneam. 12From Sarid their border went east to the land of Kisloth Tabor. Then it went to Daberath and it continued up to Japhia. 13From there, it went east to Gath Hepher and Eth Kazin. It went on to Rimmon, and turned to go to Neah. 14The border went north to Hannathon and stopped at the valley of Iphtah El. 15Their land included these towns: Kattath, Nahalal, Shimron, Idalah and Bethlehem.
There were 12 towns and their villages.
16That was the land that Joshua gave to the families of Zebulun's tribe, as well as the towns and their villages.
Land for Issachar's tribe
17The next part of the land was for Issachar's tribe, clan by clan. 18Their land included Jezreel, Kesulloth, Shunem, 19Hapharaim, Shion, Anaharath, 20Rabbith, Kishion, Ebez, 21Remeth, En Gannim, En Haddah and Beth Pazzez. 22The border of their land touched Tabor, Shahazumah and Beth Shemesh. It ended at the Jordan River.
There were 16 towns and their villages.
23That was the land that Joshua gave to the families of Issachar's tribe, as well as the towns and their villages.
Land for Asher's tribe
24The next part of the land was for Asher's tribe, clan by clan. 25Their land included Helkath, Hali, Beten, Acshaph, 26Allammelech, Amad and Mishal. The west border of their land touched Carmel and Shihor Libnath. 27Then it went east towards Beth Dagon, to touch Zebulun and the valley of Iphtah El. Then their border went north to Beth Emek and Neiel. It continued to Cabul in the north. 28It went to Abdon, Rehob, Hammon and Kanah, as far as Great Sidon. 29Then the border turned towards Ramah, and it went as far as the strong city of Tyre. Then it turned to Hosah and it ended at the Mediterranean Sea. Their towns included Hebel, Aczib, 30Ummah, Aphek and Rehob. They received 22 towns and their villages.
31That was the land that Joshua gave to the families of Asher's tribe, as well as the towns and their villages.
Land for Naphtali's tribe
32The sixth part of the land was for Naphtali's tribe, clan by clan.
33The border of their land went from Heleph and the big oak tree in Zaanannim. It went to Adami Nekeb and Jabneel, and it continued to Lakkum. It ended at the Jordan River. 34The border turned west to Aznoth Tabor and it continued to Hukkok. It touched Zebulun's land on its south side, Asher's land on its west side and the Jordan River on its east side. 35Their land included these strong cities: Ziddim, Zer, Hammath, Rakkath and Kinnereth, 36Adamah, Ramah, Hazor, 37Kedesh, Edrei, En Hazor, 38Iron, Migdal El, Horem, Beth Anath and Beth Shemesh. They received 19 towns and their villages.
39That was the land that Joshua gave to the families of Naphtali's tribe, as well as the towns and their villages.
Land for Dan's tribe
40The seventh part of the land was for Dan's tribe, clan by clan. 41Their land included Zorah, Eshtaol, Ir Shemesh, 42Shaalabbin, Aijalon, Ithlah, 43Elon, Timnah, Ekron, 44Eltekeh, Gibbethon, Baalath, 45Jehud, Bene Berak, Gath-Rimmon, 46Me Jarkon and Rakkon. They also received land in front of Joppa.
47(But later, the people of Dan failed to take their land and keep it. So they went to attack Leshem. They took the town and they killed its people. Then they lived there themselves. They called the city Dan, after their ancestor.)
48That was the land that Joshua gave to the families of Dan's tribe, as well as the towns and their villages.
Land for Joshua
49When all the tribes had received their part of the land, the Israelites gave to Joshua, son of Nun, some land for himself. 50This is what the Lord had told them to do. Joshua asked to have Timnah Serah in the hill country of Ephraim. So they gave it to him. He built up the town and he lived in it.
51That is the list of all the pieces of land that each tribe received. Eleazar the priest, Joshua, son of Nun, and the Israelite leaders used lots to decide which part of the land was for each tribe. They did this in Shiloh, in front of the Tent of Meeting. The Lord was there with them. In that way, they finished giving each tribe a part of the land.
