⁵¹ These are the inheritances which Eleazar the priest, and Joshua the son of Nun, and the heads of the fathers of the tribes of the children of Israel, divided for an inheritance by lot in Shiloh before the LORD, at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation. So they made an end of dividing the country.

¹ Then came near the heads of the fathers of the Levites to Eleazar the priest, and to Joshua the son of Nun, and to the heads of the fathers of the tribes of the children of Israel;

² And they spoke to them at Shiloh in the land of Canaan, saying, the LORD commanded by the hand of Moses to give us cities to dwell in, with their suburbs for our cattle.

³ And the children of Israel gave to the Levites out of their inheritance, at the commandment of the LORD, these cities and their suburbs.

²³ And out of the tribe of Dan, Eltekeh with its suburbs, Gibbethon with its suburbs,

⁴¹ All the cities of the Levites within the possession of the children of Israel were forty and eight cities with their suburbs.

⁴² These cities were every one with their suburbs around them. Thus were all these cities.

⁴³ And the LORD gave to Israel all the land which he swore to give to their fathers: and they possessed it, and dwelt in it.

⁴⁴ And the LORD gave them rest on all sides, according to all that he swore to their fathers: and there stood not a man of all their enemies before them; the LORD delivered all their enemies into their hand.

⁴⁵ There failed not aught of any good thing which the LORD had spoken to the house of Israel; all came to pass.
