Joshua 13:2-13

2This is the land that remains: all the territory of the Philistines and all the Geshurites,

3from the Shihor River east of Egypt northward to the territory of Ekron (it is regarded as Canaanite territory), including the area belonging to the five Philistine lords who ruled in Gaza, Ashdod, Ashkelon, Gath, and Ekron, as well as Avvite land

4to the south; all the Canaanite territory, from Arah in the region of Sidon to Aphek, as far as Amorite territory;

5the territory of Byblos and all Lebanon to the east, from Baal Gad below Mount Hermon to Lebo Hamath.

6I will drive out before the Israelites all who live in the hill country from Lebanon to Misrephoth Maim, all the Sidonians; you be sure to parcel it out to Israel as I instructed you.”

7Now, divide up this land among the nine tribes and the half-tribe of Manasseh.”

8The other half of Manasseh, Reuben, and Gad received their allotted tribal lands beyond the Jordan, just as Moses, the Lord’s servant, had assigned them.

9Their territory started from Aroer (on the edge of the Arnon Valley), included the city in the middle of the valley, the whole plain of Medeba as far as Dibon,

10and all the cities of King Sihon of the Amorites who ruled in Heshbon, and ended at the Ammonite border.

11Their territory also included Gilead, Geshurite and Maacathite territory, all Mount Hermon, and all Bashan to Salecah –

12the whole kingdom of Og in Bashan, who ruled in Ashtaroth and Edrei. (He was one of the few remaining Rephaites.) Moses defeated them and took their lands.

13But the Israelites did not conquer the Geshurites and Maacathites; Geshur and Maacah live among Israel to this very day.
