3 Then Joshua said to the children of Israel: a“How long will you neglect to go and possess the land which the Lord God of your fathers has given you?
4 Pick out from among you three men for each tribe, and I will send them; they shall rise and go through the land, survey it according to their inheritance, and come back to me.
5 And they shall divide it into seven parts. aJudah shall remain in their territory on the south, and the bhouse of Joseph shall remain in their territory on the north.
6 You shall therefore survey the land in seven parts and bring the survey here to me, athat I may cast lots for you here before the Lord our God.
7 aBut the Levites have no part among you, for the priesthood of the Lord is their inheritance. bAnd Gad, Reuben, and half the tribe of Manasseh have received their inheritance beyond the Jordan on the east, which Moses the servant of the Lord gave them.”
8 Then the men arose to go away; and Joshua charged those who went to1 survey the land, saying, “Go, walk athrough the land, survey it, and come back to me, that I may cast lots for you here before the Lord in Shiloh.”
9 So the men went, passed through the land, and1 wrote the survey in a book in seven parts by cities; and they came to Joshua at the camp in Shiloh.
10 Then Joshua cast alots for them in Shiloh before the Lord, and there bJoshua divided the land to the children of Israel according to their1 divisions.
