Joshua 18:6-10

6When youH859 have mapped outH3789 the sevenH7651 portionsH2506 of landH776 and broughtH935 it to meH413H2008, I will castH3384 lotsH1486 for you hereH6311 in the presenceH6440 of the LORDH3068 our GodH430.

7The LevitesH3881, howeverH3588, have noH369 portionH2506 among youH7130, becauseH3588 their inheritanceH5159 is the priesthoodH3550 of the LORDH3068. And GadH1410, ReubenH7205, and halfH2677 the tribeH7626 of ManassehH4519 have already receivedH3947 the inheritanceH5159 thatH834 MosesH4872 the servantH5650 of the LORDH3068 gaveH5414 them beyondH5676 the JordanH3383 to the eastH4217.”

8As the menH582 got upH6965 to go outH1980, JoshuaH3091 commandedH6680 themH1980 to map outH3789 the landH776, sayingH559, “GoH1980 and surveyH1980 the landH776, map it outH3789, and returnH7725 to meH413. Then I will castH7993 lotsH1486 for you hereH6311 in ShilohH7887 in the presenceH6440 of the LORDH3068.”

9So the menH582 departedH1980 and went throughoutH5674 the landH776, mapping itH3789 city by cityH5892 into sevenH7651 portionsH2506. Then they returnedH935 with the documentH5612 toH413 JoshuaH3091 atH413 the campH4264 in ShilohH7887.

10And JoshuaH3091 castH7993 lotsH1486 for them in the presenceH6440 of the LORDH3068 at ShilohH7887, whereH8033 heH3091 distributedH2505 the landH776 to the IsraelitesH1121H3478 according to their divisionsH4256.
