Joshua 13:2-17

²that is, all the terms of Philistines, and all Geshuri,

³from the troubled flood that moisteth Egypt, till to the terms of Ekron against the north; the land of Canaan, which is parted into five little kings of Philistines, of Gaza, and of Ashdod, of Ashkelon, of Gath, and of Ekron. Forsooth at the south be Avites,

⁴all the land of Canaan, and Mearah of Sidonians, till to Aphek, and to the terms of Amorites,

⁵and the coasts of him; and the country of Lebanon against the east, from Baalgad, under the hill of Hermon, till thou enterest into Hamath,

⁶of all men that dwelled in the hill, from the Lebanon till to the waters of Misrephothmaim, and all men of Sidon; I am, that shall do away them from the face of the sons of Israel; therefore come it into the part of heritage of Israel, as I commanded to thee.

⁷And thou now part the land into possession to the nine lineages, and to the half lineage of Manasseh,

⁸with which lineage Reuben, and Gad, wielded the land, which land Moses, the servant of the Lord, gave to them beyond the flowings of Jordan, at the east coast;

⁹from Aroer, that is set in the brink of the strand or stream of Arnon, in the midst of the valley, and all the field places of Medeba, unto Dibon,

¹⁰and all the cities of Sihon, king of Amorites, that reigned in Heshbon, till to the terms of the sons of Ammon,

¹¹and of Gilead, and to the terms of Geshurites, and of Maachathites, and all the hill of Hermon, and all Bashan, till to Salcah;

¹²all the realm of Og in Bashan, that reigned in Ashtaroth, and in Edrei; he was of the relics of Rephaim, that is, of giants; and Moses smote them, and did away them.

¹³And the sons of Israel would not destroy Geshurites, and Maachathites; and they dwelled in the midst of Israel, till into the present day.

¹⁴Soothly he gave not possession to the lineage of Levi, but the sacrifices, and the slain sacrifices of the Lord God of Israel; that is his heritage, as God spake to him.

¹⁵Therefore Moses gave possession to the lineage of the sons of Reuben, by their kindreds;

¹⁶and their term was from Aroer, that is in the brink of the strand or stream of Arnon, and in the middle valley of the same strand or stream, all the plain also that leadeth to Medeba,

¹⁷and to Heshbon, and all the towns of them, that be in the field places; and Dibon, and Bamothbaal, and the city of Bethbaalmeon,
