Joshua 13:8-13

8Moses had already given land to the tribes of Reuben, Gad, and the other half of Manasseh. Their land was on the east side of the Jordan River. Moses, the Lord's servant, had given a piece of land to each tribe.

9Their land went from Aroer, on the edge of the Arnon valley and the town in the middle of the valley. It included all the flat land of Medeba, as far as Dibon.

10It included all the towns of Sihon, king of the Amorites, who ruled in Heshbon. It went to the border of the Amorites' land.

11It included the land of Gilead, and the land of the Geshurites and Maakathites. It included all of Hermon mountain, and Bashan as far as Salecah.

12(That was the kingdom of King Og in Bashan, who ruled in Ashtaroth and Edrei. He was one of the last of the Rephaites.) Moses had won a fight against them and he had taken their land.

13But the Israelites did not chase out the Geshurites and the Maakathites, so they still live there among the Israelites.
