Joshua 19
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, or
Sheba, and
Moladah, 3 And
Hazarshual, and
Balah, and
Azem, 4 And
Eltolad, and
Bethul, and
Hormah, 5 And
Ziklag, and
Bethmarcaboth, and
Hazarsusah, 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
part of the
children of
Judah was too
much for them: therefore the
children of
Simeon had their
inheritance within the
inheritance of them.
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
Dabbasheth, and
reached to the
river that is
before Jokneam; 12 And
turned from
Sarid eastward toward the
sunrising unto the
border of
Chislothtabor, and then goeth
out to
Daberath, and goeth
up to
Japhia, 13 And from thence passeth on
along on the
east to Gittahhepher, to
Ittahkazin, and goeth
out to
Remmonmethoar to
Neah; 14 And the
border compasseth it on the north
side to
Hannathon: and the
outgoings thereof are in the
valley of
Jiphthahel: 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 was toward
Jezreel, and
Chesulloth, and
Shunem, 19 And
Hapharaim, and
Shion, and
Anaharath, 20 And
Rabbith, and
Kishion, and
Abez, 21 And
Remeth, and
Engannim, and
Enhaddah, and
Bethpazzez; 22 And the
coast reacheth to
Tabor, and
Shahazimah, and
Bethshemesh; and the
outgoings of their
border were at
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. 24 And the
fifth lot came
out for the
tribe of the
children of
Asher according to their
families. 25 And their
border was
Helkath, and
Hali, and
Beten, and
Achshaph, 26 And
Alammelech, and
Amad, and
Misheal; and
reacheth to
Carmel westward, and to
Shihorlibnath; 27 And
turneth toward the
sunrising to Bethdagon, and
reacheth to
Zebulun, and to the
valley of
Jiphthahel toward the north
side of
Bethemek, and
Neiel, and goeth
out to
Cabul on the left
hand, 28 And
Hebron, and
Rehob, and
Hammon, and
Kanah, even unto
great Zidon; 29 And then the
coast turneth to
Ramah, and to the
strong city Tyre; and the
coast turneth to
Hosah; and the
outgoings thereof are at the
sea from the
coast to
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. 32 The
sixth lot came
out to the
children of
Naphtali, even for the
children of
Naphtali according to their
families. 33 And their
coast was from
Heleph, from
Allon to
Zaanannim, and
Adami, Nekeb, and
Jabneel, unto
Lakum; and the
outgoings thereof were at
Jordan: 34 And then the
coast turneth westward to
Aznothtabor, and goeth
out from thence to
Hukkok, and
reacheth to
Zebulun on the south
side, and
reacheth to
Asher on the west
side, and to
Judah upon
Jordan toward the
sunrising.
35 And the
fenced 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
Migdalel, Horem, and
Bethanath, and
Bethshemesh; nineteen cities with their
villages. 39 This is the
inheritance of the
tribe of the
children of
Naphtali according to their
families, the
cities and their
villages. 40 And 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
Irshemesh, 42 And
Shaalabbin, and
Ajalon, and
Jethlah, 43 And
Elon, and
Thimnathah, and
Ekron, 44 And
Eltekeh, and
Gibbethon, and
Baalath, 45 And
Jehud, and
Beneberak, and
Gathrimmon, 46 And
Mejarkon, and
Rakkon, with the
border before Japho. 47 And the
coast of the
children of
Dan went
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, these
cities with their
villages. 49 When they had made an
end of dividing the
land for
inheritance by their
coasts, 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 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 the
congregation. So they made an
end of
dividing the
country.
