Joshua 18:4-9

4Give outH3051 from among you threeH7969 menH582 for each tribeH7626: and I will sendH7971 them, and they shall riseH6965, and goH1980 through the landH776, and describeH3789 it accordingH6310 to the inheritanceH5159 of them; and they shall comeH935 again to me. 5And they shall divideH2505 it into sevenH7651 partsH2506: JudahH3063 shall abideH5975 in their coastH1366 on the southH5045, and the houseH1004 of JosephH3130 shall abideH5975 in their coastsH1366 on the northH6828. 6Ye shall therefore describeH3789 the landH776 into sevenH7651 partsH2506, and bringH935 the description hither to me, that I may castH3384 lotsH1486 for you here beforeH6440 YhwhH3068 our GodH430. 7But the LevitesH3881 have no partH2506 amongH7130 you; for the priesthoodH3550 of YhwhH3068 is their inheritanceH5159: and GadH1410, and ReubenH7205, and halfH2677 the tribeH7626 of ManassehH4519, have receivedH3947 their inheritanceH5159 beyondH5676 JordanH3383 on the eastH4217, which MosesH4872 the servantH5650 of YhwhH3068 gaveH5414 them.

8And the menH582 aroseH6965, and went awayH3212: and JoshuaH3091 chargedH6680 them that wentH1980 to describeH3789 the landH776, sayingH559, GoH3212 and walkH1980 through the landH776, and describeH3789 it, and come againH7725 to me, that I may here castH7993 lotsH1486 for you beforeH6440 YhwhH3068 in ShilohH7887. 9And the menH582 wentH3212 and passed throughH5674 the landH776, and describedH3789 it by citiesH5892 into sevenH7651 partsH2506 in a bookH5612, and cameH935 again to JoshuaH3091 to the campH4264 at ShilohH7887.
