Simeon’s Territory
1   And the second lot came forth to Simeon, even for the tribe of the children of Simeon according to their families: and their inheritance was within the inheritance of the children of Judah.
2   And they had in their inheritance Beersheba, and Sheba, and Moladah,

6   And Bethlebaoth, and Sharuhen; thirteen cities and their villages:
7   Ain, Remmon, and Ether, and Ashan; four cities and their villages:
8   And all the villages that were round about these cities to Baalathbeer, Ramath of the South. 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 was the inheritance of the children of Simeon: for the portion of the children of Judah was too much for them: therefore the children of Simeon had their inheritance within their inheritance.

Zebulun’s Territory
10   And the third lot came up for the children of Zebulun according to their families: and the border of their inheritance was unto Sarid:
11   And their border went up toward the sea, and Maralah, and reached to Dabbesheth, and reached to the brook that is east of Jokneam;
12   And turned from Sarid eastward toward the sun rising unto the border of Chislothtabor, and then  goes  out  to  Daberath,  and  then  up  to Japhia.
13   And from there passes on along on the east to Gathhepher, to Ethkazin, and goes on to Remmon and bends toward Neah;
14   And the border went around to the north side of Hannathon: and ends in the valley of Iphtahel:
15   And Kattath, and Nahallal, and Shimron, and  Idalah,  and  Bethlehem:  twelve  cities  with their villages.
16   This is the inheritance of the children of Zebulun according to their families, these cities with their villages.

17   And the fourth lot came out to Issachar, for the   children   of   Issachar   according   to   their families.
18   And  their  border  went  to  Jezreel,  and included Chesulloth, and Shunem,
19   And   Hapharaim,   and   Shion,   and Anaharath,
20   And Rabbith, and Kishion, and Ebez,
21   And   Remeth,   and   Engannim,   and Enhaddah, and Bethpazzez;
22   And  the  border  reaches  to  Tabor,  and Shahazumah, and Bethshemesh; and the end of their border was at the Jordan: sixteen cities with their villages.
23   This is the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Issachar according to their families, the cities and their villages.

Asher’s Territory
24   And the fifth lot came out for the tribe of the children of Asher according to their families.
25   And their territory included Helkath, and Hali, and Beten, and Achshaph,

27   And  turns  toward  the  sun  rising  to Bethdagon, and reaches to Zebulun, and to the valley of Iphtahel toward the north side of Bethemek, and Neiel, and continues to Cabul on the left,
28   And Ebron, and Rehob, and Hammon, and Kanah, even unto greater Sidon;
29   And then the border turns to Ramah, and to the fortified city of Tyre; and the border turns to Hosah; and the end is at the sea by the region of Achzib:
30   Ummah  also,  and  Aphek,  and  Rehob: twenty and two cities with their villages.
31   This is the inheritance of the tribe of the children  of  Asher  according  to  their  families, these cities with their villages.

Naphtali’s Territory
32   The sixth lot came out to the children of Naphtali, even for the children of Naphtali according to their families.
33   And their border was from Heleph, from the oak in Zaanannim, and Adami, Nekeb, and Jabneel, unto Lakum; and it ended at the Jordan:
34   And  then the border turns westward to Aznothtabor, and goes from there to Hukkok, and reaches to Zebulun on the south side, and reaches to Asher on the west side, and to Judah by the Jordan toward the sun rising.
35   And the fortified cities are Ziddim, Zer, and Hammath, Rakkath, and Chinnereth,
36   And Adamah, and Ramah, and Hazor,
37   And Kedesh, and Edrei, and Enhazor,

47   And the border of the children of Dan went out beyond these: therefore the children of Dan went up to fight against Leshem, and took it, and struck 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, these cities with their villages.

The Inheritance to Joshua
49   When they had finished dividing the land for inheritance according to their borders, the children of Israel gave an inheritance to Joshua the son of Nun among them:
50   According to the word of the LORD they gave him the city for which he asked, even Timnathserah in mount Ephraim: and he built the city, and dwelt therein.
51   These are the inheritances, which Eleazar the priest, and Joshua the son of Nun, and the heads of the fathers of the tribes of the children of  Israel,  divided  for  an  inheritance  by  lot  in Shiloh before the LORD, at the door of the tabernacle of meeting. So they finished dividing the country.
