Joshua 21:26-44

²⁶There were ten cities in all for the rest of the clans of the Kohathites, including their pasturelands.

²⁷From the half tribe of Manasseh, to clans of Gershon, these were other Levite clans, and they gave Golan in Bashan with its pasturelands—a city of refuge for anyone who killed another unintentionally, along with Be Eshterah with its pasturelands—two cities in all.

²⁸To the clans of Gershon they also gave Kishion from the tribe of Issachar, along with its pasturelands, Daberath with its pasturelands,

²⁹Jarmuth with its pasturelands, and En Gannim with its pasturelands—four cities.

³⁰From the tribe of Asher, they gave Mishal with its pasturelands, Abdon with its pasturelands,

³¹Helkath with its pasturelands, and Rehob with its pasturelands—four cities in all.

³²From the tribe of Naphtali, they gave the clans of Gershon Kedesh in Galilee with its pasturelands—a city of refuge for anyone who killed another unintentionally; Hammoth Dor with its pasturelands, and Kartan with its pasturelands—three cities in all.

³³There were thirteen cities in all, out of the clans of Gershon, including their pasturelands.

³⁴To the rest of the Levites—the clans of Merari—were given out of the tribe of Zebulun: Jokneam with its pasturelands, Kartah with its pasturelands,

³⁵Dimnah with its pasturelands, and Nahalal with its pasturelands—four cities in all.

³⁶To the clans of Merari were given from the tribe of Reuben: Bezer with its pasturelands, Jahaz with its pasturelands,

³⁷Kedemoth with its pasturelands, and Mephaath with its pasturelands—four cities.

³⁸Out of the tribe of Gad they were given Ramoth in Gilead with its pasturelands—a city of refuge for any who killed another unintentionally—and Mahanaim with its pasturelands.

³⁹The clans of Merari were also given Heshbon with its pasturelands, and Jazer with its pasturelands. These were four cities in all.

⁴⁰All these were the cities of the several clans of Merari, who were from the tribe of Levi—twelve cities in all were given to them by the casting of lots.

⁴¹The cities of the Levites taken from the middle of the land possessed by the people of Israel were forty-eight cities, including their pasturelands.

⁴²These cities each had its surrounding pasturelands. It was this way with all these cities.

⁴³So Yahweh gave to Israel all the land that he swore to give to their ancestors. The Israelites took possession of it and settled there.

⁴⁴Then Yahweh gave them rest on every side, just as he had sworn to their ancestors. Not one of their enemies could defeat them. Yahweh gave all their enemies into their hand.
