1 Now Joshua awas old, advanced in years. And the Lord said to him: “You are old, advanced in years, and there remains very much land yet to be possessed.
2aThis is the land that yet remains: ball the territory of the Philistines and all cthatof the Geshurites,
3afrom Sihor, which is east of Egypt, as far as the border of Ekron northward (which is counted as Canaanite); the bfive lords of the Philistines—the Gazites, the Ashdodites, the Ashkelonites, the Gittites, and the Ekronites; also cthe Avites;
4 from the south, all the land of the Canaanites, and Mearah that belongs to the Sidonians aas far as Aphek, to the border of bthe Amorites;
5 the land of athe Gebalites, and all Lebanon, toward the sunrise, bfrom Baal Gad below Mount Hermon as far as the entrance to Hamath;
6 all the inhabitants of the mountains from Lebanon as far as athe Brook Misrephoth, and all the Sidonians—them bI will drive out from before the children of Israel; only cdivide it by lot to Israel as an inheritance, as I have commanded you.
7 Now therefore, divide this land as an inheritance to the nine tribes and half the tribe of Manasseh.”
The Land Divided East of the Jordan
8 With the other half-tribe the Reubenites and the Gadites received their inheritance, awhich Moses had given them, bbeyond the Jordan eastward, as Moses the servant of the Lord had given them:
9 from Aroer which is on the bank of the River Arnon, and the town that is in the midst of the ravine, aand all the plain of Medeba as far as Dibon;
10aall the cities of Sihon king of the Amorites, who reigned in Heshbon, as far as the border of the children of Ammon;
11aGilead, and the border of the Geshurites and Maachathites, all Mount Hermon, and all Bashan as far as Salcah;
12 all the kingdom of Og in Bashan, who reigned in Ashtaroth and Edrei, who remained of athe remnant of the giants; bfor Moses had defeated and cast out these.
13 Nevertheless the children of Israel adid not drive out the Geshurites or the Maachathites, but the Geshurites and the Maachathites dwell among the Israelites until this day.
14aOnly to the tribe of Levi he had given1 no inheritance; the sacrifices of the Lord God of Israel made by fire are their inheritance, bas He said to them.
The Land of Reuben

22 The children of Israel also killed with the sword aBalaam the son of Beor, the soothsayer, among those who were killed by them.
23 And the border of the children of Reuben was the bank of the Jordan. This was the inheritance of the children of Reuben according to their families, the cities and their villages.
The Land of Gad
24aMoses also had given aninheritance to the tribe of Gad, to the children of Gad according to their families.
25aTheir territory was Jazer, and all the cities of Gilead, band half the land of the Ammonites as far as Aroer, which is before cRabbah,
26 and from Heshbon to Ramath Mizpah and Betonim, and from Mahanaim to the border of Debir,
27 and in the valley aBeth Haram, Beth Nimrah, bSuccoth, and Zaphon, the rest of the kingdom of Sihon king of Heshbon, with the Jordan as its border, as far as the edge cof the Sea of Chinnereth, on the other side of the Jordan eastward.
28 This is the inheritance of the children of Gad according to their families, the cities and their villages.

30 Their territory was from Mahanaim, all Bashan, all the kingdom of Og king of Bashan, and aall the towns of Jair which are in Bashan, sixty cities;
31 half of Gilead, and aAshtaroth and Edrei, cities of the kingdom of Og in Bashan, were for the bchildren of Machir the son of Manasseh, for half of the children of Machir according to their families.
32 These aretheareas which Moses had1 distributed as an inheritance in the plains of Moab on the other side of the Jordan, by Jericho eastward.
