Joshua Chapter 19

Joshua Chapter 19
1 And the second lot came out to
Simeon, even for the tribe of the children
of Simeon according to their families:
and their inheritance was in the midst of
the inheritance of the children of Judah.
2 Now they had in their inheritance,
Beersheba, and Sheba, and Moladah, 3
And Hazur-shual, and Balah, and Azem,
4 And Eltolad, and Bethul, and Hormah,
5 And Ziklag, and Beth-marcaboth, and
Hazar-susah,
6 And Beth-lebaoth, and Sharuhen:
thirteen cities with their villages. 7 Ain,
Remmon, and Ether, and Ashan: four
cities with their villages. 8 And all the
villages that were round about these
cities, unto Baalathbeer, and Ramath
southward: this is the inheritance of the
tribe of the children of Simeon
according to their families.
9 Out of the portion of the children of
Judah came the inheritance of the
children of Simeon: for the part of the
children of Judah was too much for
them: therefore the children of Simeon
had their inheritance within their
inheritance.
10 Also the third lot arose for the
children of Zebulun according to their
families: and the coasts of their
inheritance came to Sarid,
11 And their border goeth up westward,
even to Maralah, and reacheth to
Dabbasheth, and meeteth with the river
that lieth before Jokneam, 12 And turneth
from Sarid eastward toward the sun
rising unto the border of Chisloth-tabor,
and goeth out to Daberath, and ascendeth
to Japhia, 13 And from thence goeth
along eastward toward the sun rising to
Gittahhepher to Ittah-kazin, and goeth
forth to Remmon, and turneth to Neah. 14
And this border compasseth it on the
north side to Hannathon, and the ends
thereof are in the valley of Jiphtah-el,
15 And Kattath, and Nahallal, and
Shimron, and Idalah, and Beth-lehem:
twelve cities with their villages.
16 This is the inheritance of the children
of Zebulun according to their families:
that is, these cities and their villages.
17 The fourth lot came out to Issachar,
even for the children of Issachar
according to their families.
18 And their coast was Jezreel, and
Chesulloth, and Shunem,
19 And Haphraim, and Shihon, and
Anaharath,
20 And Harabbith, and Kishion, and
Abez,
21 And Remeth, and En-gannim, and
Enhaddah, and Beth-pazzez.
22 And this coast reacheth to Tabor, and
Shahazimah, and Beth-shemesh, and the
ends of their coast reach to Jordan:
sixteen cities with their villages. 23 This
is the inheritance of the tribe of the
children of Issachar according to their
families: that is, the cities, and their
villages. 24 Also the fifth lot came out
for the tribe of the children of Asher
according to their families.
25 And their coast was Helcath, and
Hali, and Beten, and Achshaph, 26 And
Alammelech, and Amad, and Misheal,
and came to Carmel westward, and to
Shihor-libnath,
27 And turneth toward the sun rising to
Beth-dagon, and cometh to Zebulun, and
to the valley of Jiphthah-el, toward the
north side of Beth-emek, and Neiel, and
goeth out on the left side of Cabul,
28 And to Hebron, and Rehob, and
Hammon, and Kanah, unto great Zidon.
29 Then the coast turneth to Ramah and
to the strong city of Zor, and this border
turneth to Hosah, and the ends thereof
are at the sea from Hebel to Achzib,
30 Ummah also and Aphek, and Rehob:
two and twenty cities with their villages.
31 This is the inheritance of the tribe of
the children of Asher according to their
families: that is, these cities and their
villages. 32 The sixth lot came out to the
children of Naphtali, even to the
children of Naphtali according to their
families.
33 And their coast was from Heleph,
and from Allon in Zaanannim, and
Adaminekeb, and Jabneel, even to
Lakum, and the ends thereof are at
Jordan.
34 So this coast turneth westward to
Aznoth-tabor, and goeth out from thence
to Hukkok, and reacheth to Zebulun on
the south side, and goeth to Asher on the
west side, and to Judah by Jordan
toward the sun rising.
35 And the strong cities are Ziddim, Zer,
and Hammath, Rakkath, and Chinnereth,
36 And Adamah, and Ramah, and Hazor,
37 And Kedesh, and Edrei, and Enhazor,
38 And Iron, and Migdal-el, Horem, and
Beth-anah, and Beth-shemesh: nineteen
cities with their villages.
39 This is the inheritance of the tribe of
the children of Naphtali according to
their families: that is, the cities and their
villages. 40 The seventh lot came out for
the tribe of the children of Dan
according to their families.
41 And the coast of their inheritance was
Zorah, and Eshtaol, and Ir-shemesh, 42
And Shaalabbin, and Ajalon, and
Jethlah,
43 And Elon, and Temnathah, and Ekron,
44 And Eltekeh, and Gibbethon, and
Baalah,
45 And Jehud, and Bene-berak, and
Gath-rimmon,
46 And Me-jarkon, and Rakkon, with the
border that lieth before Japho. 47 But the
coasts of the children of Dan fell out too
little for them: therefore the children of
Dan went up to fight against Leshem, and
took it, and smote it with the edge of the
sword, and possessed it, and dwelt
therein, and called Leshem, Dan after the
name of Dan their father.
48 This is the inheritance of the tribe of
the children of Dan according to their
families: that is, these cities and their
villages.
49 When they had made an end of
dividing the land by the coasts thereof,
then the children of Israel gave an
inheritance unto Joshua the son of Nun
among them.
50 According to the word of the Lord
they gave him the city which he asked,
even Timnath-serah in mount Ephraim:
and he built the city and dwelt therein.
51 These are the heritages which
Eleazar the priest, and Joshua the son of
Nun, and the chief fathers of the tribes of
the children of Israel divided by lot in
Shiloh before the Lord at the door of the
tabernacle of the congregation: so they
made an end of dividing the country.
