Joshua 19:1-19

1The second lot came out for Simeon, for the tribe of his descendants by their clans, but their inheritance was within the inheritance given to Judah’s descendants.

2Their inheritance included Beer-sheba (or Sheba), Moladah,

3Hazar-shual, Balah, Ezem,

4Eltolad, Bethul, Hormah,

5Ziklag, Beth-marcaboth, Hazar-susah,

6Beth-lebaoth, and Sharuhen — thirteen cities, with their settlements;

7Ain, Rimmon, Ether, and Ashan — four cities, with their settlements;

8and all the settlements surrounding these cities as far as Baalath-beer (Ramah in the south). This was the inheritance of the tribe of Simeon’s descendants by their clans.

9The inheritance of Simeon’s descendants was within the territory of Judah’s descendants, because the share for Judah’s descendants was too large. So Simeon’s descendants received an inheritance within Judah’s portion.

10The third lot came up for Zebulun’s descendants by their clans. The territory of their inheritance stretched as far as Sarid;

11their border went up westward to Maralah, reached Dabbesheth, and met the brook east of Jokneam.

12From Sarid, it turned due east along the border of Chisloth-tabor, went to Daberath, and went up to Japhia.

13From there, it went due east to Gath-hepher and to Eth-kazin; it extended to Rimmon, curving around to Neah.

14The border then circled around Neah on the north to Hannathon and ended at Iphtah-el Valley,

15along with Kattath, Nahalal, Shimron, Idalah, and Bethlehem — twelve cities, with their settlements.

16This was the inheritance of Zebulun’s descendants by their clans, these cities, with their settlements.

17The fourth lot came out for the tribe of Issachar’s descendants by their clans.

18Their territory went to Jezreel, and included Chesulloth, Shunem,

19Hapharaim, Shion, Anaharath,
