Joshua 19:1-19

1The second part of the land was for Simeon's tribe, clan by clan. Their land was in the middle of Judah's land.

2It included these towns: Beersheba (also called Sheba), Moladah,

3Hazar-Shual, Balah, Ezem,

4Eltolad, Bethul, Hormah,

5Ziklag, Beth Marcaboth, Hazar-Susah,

6Beth Lebaoth and Sharuhen. There were 13 towns and their villages.

7He also gave them Ain, Rimmon, Ether and Ashan. There were four towns and their villages.

8This included all the villages near them as far as Baalath Beer (also called Ramah, in the Negev). That was the land that Joshua gave to the families of Simeon's tribe.

9Because Judah had received more land than they needed, Joshua took some of their land for Simeon. So Simeon's tribe lived inside the land that Joshua had given to Judah.

10The next part of the land was for Zebulun's tribe, clan by clan. The border of their land went as far as Sarid.

11Then it went west to Maralah, it touched Dabbesheth, and it went to the valley near Jokneam.

12From Sarid their border went east to the land of Kisloth Tabor. Then it went to Daberath and it continued up to Japhia.

13From there, it went east to Gath Hepher and Eth Kazin. It went on to Rimmon, and turned to go to Neah.

14The border went north to Hannathon and stopped at the valley of Iphtah El.

15Their land included these towns: Kattath, Nahalal, Shimron, Idalah and Bethlehem. There were 12 towns and their villages.

16That was the land that Joshua gave to the families of Zebulun's tribe, as well as the towns and their villages.

17The next part of the land was for Issachar's tribe, clan by clan.

18Their land included Jezreel, Kesulloth, Shunem,

19Hapharaim, Shion, Anaharath,
