  • Josh 15:1-9 : 1 This then was the allocation for the tribe of the children of Judah by their families; reaching to the border of Edom, the wilderness of Zin southward was the farthest part of the southern coast. 2 And their southern border was from the shore of the Salt Sea, from the bay that faces southward: 3 And it extended to the south of Maalehacrabbim, proceeded to Zin, ascended on the south side to Kadeshbarnea, passed by Hezron, went up to Adar, and circled around to Karkaa: 4 From there it passed toward Azmon and extended to the river of Egypt; and the end of that coast was at the sea: this shall be your southern coast. 5 And the east border was the Salt Sea, up to the end of Jordan. And their north border was from the bay of the sea at the extremity of Jordan: 6 And the border went up to Bethhogla, passed by the north of Betharabah; and the border went up to the stone of Bohan, the son of Reuben: 7 And the border went up toward Debir from the Valley of Achor, and turned northward toward Gilgal, which is opposite the ascent of Adummim, which is on the south side of the river: and the border passed toward the waters of Enshemesh, and ended at Enrogel: 8 And the border went up by the Valley of the Son of Hinnom to the south of the Jebusite; this is Jerusalem: and the border went up to the top of the mountain that lies before the Valley of Hinnom westward, which is at the end of the Valley of the Giants northward: 9 And the border was drawn from the top of the hill to the fountain of the water of Nephtoah, and went out to the cities of Mount Ephron; and the border was drawn to Baalah, which is Kirjathjearim: 10 And the border circled from Baalah westward to Mount Seir, passed along to the side of Mount Jearim, which is Chesalon, on the north side, and went down to Bethshemesh, and passed on to Timnah: 11 And the border went out to the side of Ekron northward: and the border was drawn to Shicron, passed along to Mount Baalah, and went out to Jabneel; and the end of the border was at the sea. 12 And the west border was to the Great Sea and its coast. This is the boundary of the children of Judah all around according to their families.
  • Josh 16:1-9 : 1 And the portion of the children of Joseph began at the Jordan by Jericho, to the waters of Jericho on the east, to the wilderness that rises from Jericho throughout Mount Bethel, 2 And continues from Bethel to Luz, and passes along to the borders of Archi to Ataroth, 3 And goes down westward to the coast of Japhleti, to the coast of lower Bethhoron, and to Gezer; and its outgoings are at the sea. 4 So the children of Joseph, Manasseh and Ephraim, received their inheritance. 5 And the border of the children of Ephraim according to their families was this: the border of their inheritance on the east side was Atarothaddar, to upper Bethhoron; 6 And the border extended toward the sea to Michmethah on the north side; and the border went around eastward to Taanathshiloh, and passed by it on the east to Janohah; 7 And it descended from Janohah to Ataroth and to Naarath, and came to Jericho, and went out at Jordan. 8 The border extended from Tappuah westward to the river Kanah; and its outgoings were at the sea. This is the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Ephraim by their families. 9 And the separate cities for the children of Ephraim were among the inheritance of the children of Manasseh, all the cities with their villages. 10 And they did not drive out the Canaanites who lived in Gezer; but the Canaanites dwell among the Ephraimites to this day, and serve under tribute.
  • Josh 19:1-9 : 1 And the second lot came forth to Simeon, for the tribe of the descendants of Simeon according to their families: and their inheritance was within the inheritance of the descendants of Judah. 2 And they had in their inheritance Beersheba, or Sheba, and Moladah, 3 And Hazarshual, and Balah, and Azem, 4 And Eltolad, and Bethul, and Hormah, 5 And Ziklag, and Bethmarcaboth, and Hazarsusah, 6 And Bethlebaoth, and Sharuhen; thirteen cities and their villages: 7 Ain, Remmon, and Ether, and Ashan; four cities and their villages: 8 And all the villages that were around these cities to Baalathbeer, Ramath of the south. This is the inheritance of the tribe of the descendants of Simeon according to their families. 9 Out of the portion of the descendants of Judah was the inheritance of the descendants of Simeon: for the part of the descendants of Judah was too much for them: therefore the descendants of Simeon had their inheritance within the inheritance of them.
