Joshua 13:1-7

Joshua 13:1-7

[1] Now Joshua  was old  and stricken  in years;  and the LORD  said  unto him, Thou art old  and stricken  in years,  and there remaineth  yet very  much  land  to be possessed.  [2] This is the land  that yet remaineth:  all the borders  of the Philistines,  and all Geshuri,  [3] From Sihor,  which is before  Egypt,  even unto the borders  of Ekron  northward,  which is counted  to the Canaanite:  five  lords  of the Philistines;  the Gazathites,  and the Ashdothites,  the Eshkalonites,  the Gittites,  and the Ekronites;  [4] From the south,  all the land  of the Canaanites,  and Mearah  that is beside the Sidonians,  unto Aphek,  to the borders  of the Amorites:  [5] And the land  of the Giblites,  and all Lebanon,  toward the sunrising,  from Baalgad  under mount  Hermon  unto the entering  into Hamath.  [6] All the inhabitants  of the hill country  from Lebanon  unto Misrephothmaim,  and all the Sidonians,  them will I drive out  from before  the children  of Israel:  only divide thou it by lot  unto the Israelites  for an inheritance,  as I have commanded  thee. [7] Now therefore divide  this land  for an inheritance  unto the nine  tribes,  and the half  tribe  of Manasseh,
