Joshua 18:2-7

2And there remainedH3498 among the children of IsraelH3478 sevenH7651 tribesH7626 whose inheritanceH5159 had not been distributed to them.

3And JoshuaH3091 saidH559 to the children of IsraelH3478, How long will ye shew yourselves slackH7503 to goH935 to takeH3423 possessionH3423 of the landH776 which Jehovah the 1GodH430 of your fathersH1 hath givenH5414 you?

4ProvideH3051 you threeH7969 menH376 for a tribeH7626; that I may sendH7971 them, and they shall riseH6965 and goH1980 through the landH776, and describeH3789 it according to the proportion of their inheritanceH5159, and they shall comeH935 to me.

5And they shall divideH2505 it into sevenH7651 portionsH2506. JudahH3063 shall remainH5975 in their borderH1366 on the southH5045, and the houseH1004 of JosephH3130 shall remainH5975 in their borderH1366 on the northH6828;

6and ye shall describeH3789 the landH776 into sevenH7651 portionsH2506, and bringH935 [the description] hither to me, and I will cast lotsH1486 for you hereH6311 before Jehovah our 2GodH430.

7But the LevitesH3881 have no portionH2506 among you, for the priesthoodH3550 of Jehovah is their inheritanceH5159. And GadH1410, and ReubenH7205, and halfH2677 the tribeH7626 of ManassehH4519 have receivedH3947 their inheritanceH5159 beyond the JordanH3383 on the eastH4217, which MosesH4872 the servantH5650 of Jehovah gaveH5414 them.
