Joshua 13:1-7
Land That Remains to Be Possessed
13Now aJoshua was old, advanced in years, and Yahweh said to him, “You are old, advanced in years, and very much of the land remains to be possessed. 2“This is the land that remains: all the regions of the Philistines and all those of the aGeshurites; 3from the Shihor which is 1east of Egypt, even as far as the border of Ekron to the north (it is counted as Canaanite); the afive lords of the Philistines: the Gazite, the Ashdodite, the Ashkelonite, the Gittite, the Ekronite; and the Avvite 41to the south, all the land of the Canaanite, and Mearah that belongs to the Sidonians, as far as aAphek, to the border of the bAmorite; 5and the land of the aGebalite, and all of Lebanon, to the east toward the sunrise, bfrom Baal-gad below Mount Hermon as far as 1Lebo-hamath. 6“All the inhabitants of the hill country from Lebanon as far as aMisrephoth-maim, all the Sidonians, I will dispossess them from before the sons of Israel; bonly allot it to Israel for an inheritance as I have commanded you. 7“So now, apportion this land for an inheritance to the nine tribes and the half-tribe of Manasseh.”
