And Joshua is old, entering into days , and Jehovah saith unto him, `Thou hast become aged, thou hast entered into days ; as to the land , very much hath been left to possess.
2
`This [is] the land that is left; all the circuits of the Philistines , and all Geshuri,
3
from Sihor which [is] on the front of Egypt , and unto the border of Ekron northward , to the Canaanite it is reckoned, five princes of the Philistines , the Gazathite, and the Ashdothite, the Eshkalonite, the Gittite , and the Ekronite, also the Avim.
4
`From the south, all the land of the Canaanite, and Mearah, which [is] to the Sidonians, unto Aphek, unto the border of the Amorite;
5
and the land of the Giblite, and all Lebanon , at the sun-rising , from Baal-Gad under mount Hermon , unto the going in to Hamath:
6
all the inhabitants of the hill -country, from Lebanon unto Misrephoth-Maim, all the Sidonians: I -- I dispossess them before the sons of Israel ; only, cause it to fall to Israel for an inheritance , as I have commanded thee.
7
`And now, apportion this land for an inheritance to the nine tribes , and the half of the tribe of Manasseh ,' --
8
with it the Reubenite, and the Gadite, have received their inheritance , which Moses hath given to them beyond the Jordan eastward, as Moses servant of Jehovah hath given to them;
9

and Gilead , and the border of the Geshurite, and of the Maachathite, and all mount Hermon , and all Bashan unto Salcah;
12
all the kingdom of Og in Bashan, who reigned in Ashtaroth and in Edrei; he was left of the remnant of the Rephaim , and Moses doth smite them, and dispossess them;
13
and the sons of Israel dispossessed not the Geshurite, and the Maachathite; and Geshur and Maachath dwell in the midst of Israel unto this day .
14
Only, to the tribe of Levi he hath not given an inheritance ; fire-offerings of Jehovah , God of Israel , is its inheritance , as He hath spoken to it.
15
And Moses giveth to the tribe of the sons of Reuben , for their families ;
16

22
And Balaam , son of Beor, the diviner, have the sons of Israel slain with the sword , among their wounded ones.
23
And the border of the sons of Reuben is the Jordan , and [its] border ; this [is] the inheritance of the sons of Reuben , for their families , the cities and their villages .
24
And Moses giveth to the tribe of Gad , to the sons of Gad , for their families ;
25
and the border is to them Jazer , and all the cities of Gilead , and the half of the land of the Bene-Ammon , unto Aroer which [is] on the front of Rabbah,

28
This [is] the inheritance of the sons of Gad , for their families , the cities and their villages .
29
And Moses giveth to the half of the tribe of Manasseh ; and it is to the half of the tribe of the sons of Manasseh , for their families .
30
And their border is from Mahanaim , all Bashan, all the kingdom of Og king of Bashan , and all the small towns of Jair, which [are] in Bashan, sixty cities ;
