Joshua 19:5-28

⁵Simeon also had Ziklag, Beth Markaboth, Hazar Susah,

⁶Beth Lebaoth, and Sharuhen. These were thirteen cities, including their villages.

⁷Simeon also had Ain, Rimmon, Ether, and Ashan. These were four cities, including their villages.

⁸These were together, including their the villages around these cities as far as Baalath Beer (the same as Ramah in the Negev). This was the inheritance of the tribe of Simeon, clan by clan.

⁹The inheritance of the tribe of Simeon formed part of the territory of the tribe of Judah. Because the portion of land assigned to the tribe of Judah was too large for them, the tribe of Simeon received their inheritance out of the middle of their portion.

¹⁰The third casting of lots fell to the tribe of Zebulun, clan by clan. The border of their inheritance began at Sarid.

¹¹Their border went up westward toward Maralah and touched Dabbesheth; then it extended to the brook that was opposite Jokneam.

¹²From Sarid the border turned eastward toward the east and went to the border of Kisloth Tabor. From there it went to Daberath and then up to Japhia.

¹³From there it passed on eastward to Gath Hepher, and then to Eth Kazin; next it went to Rimmon and turned toward Neah.

¹⁴The border made a turn to the north to Hannathon and ended at the Valley of Iphtah El.

¹⁵This region included the cities of Kattath, Nahalal, Shimron, Idalah, and Bethlehem. There were twelve cities, including their villages.

¹⁶This was the inheritance of the tribe of Zebulun, clan by clan, including these cities, including their villages.

¹⁷The fourth casting of lots fell to Issachar, clan by clan.

¹⁸Their territory included Jezreel, Chesulloth, Shunem,

¹⁹Hapharaim, Shion, and Anaharath.

²⁰It also included Rabbith, Kishion, Ebez,

²¹Remeth, En Gannim, En Haddah, and Beth Pazzez.

²²Their border also touched Tabor, Shahazumah, and Beth Shemesh, and ended at the Jordan. There were sixteen cities, including their villages.

²³This was the inheritance of the tribe of Issachar, according to their clans—the cities, including their villages.

²⁴The fifth casting of lots fell to the tribe of Asher, clan by clan.

²⁵Their territory included Helkath, Hali, Beten, Akshaph,

²⁶Allammelek, Amad, and Mishall. On the west the boundary extended to Carmel and Shihor Libnath.

²⁷Then it turned eastward to Beth Dagon and went as far as Zebulun, and then to the Valley of Iphtah El, northward to Beth Emek and Neiel. Then it continued on to Kabul toward the north.

²⁸It then went on to Abdon, Rehob, Hammon, and Kanah, as far as Greater Sidon.
