[3] And the children  of Israel  gave  unto the Levites  out of their inheritance,  at the commandment  of the LORD,  these cities  and their suburbs.  [4] And the lot  came out  for the families  of the Kohathites:  and the children  of Aaron  the priest,  which were of the Levites,  had by lot  out of the tribe  of Judah,  and out of the tribe  of Simeon,  and out of the tribe  of Benjamin,  thirteen  cities.  [5] And the rest  of the children  of Kohath  had by lot  out of the families  of the tribe  of Ephraim,  and out of the tribe  of Dan,  and out of the half  tribe  of Manasseh,  ten  cities.  [6] And the children  of Gershon  had by lot  out of the families  of the tribe  of Issachar,  and out of the tribe  of Asher,  and out of the tribe  of Naphtali,  and out of the half  tribe  of Manasseh  in Bashan,  thirteen  cities.  [7] The children  of Merari  by their families  had out of the tribe  of Reuben,  and out of the tribe  of Gad,  and out of the tribe  of Zebulun,  twelve  cities.  [8] And the children  of Israel  gave  by lot  unto the Levites  these cities  with their suburbs,  as the LORD  commanded  by the hand  of Moses.  [9] And they gave  out of the tribe  of the children  of Judah,  and out of the tribe  of the children  of Simeon,  these cities  which are here mentioned  by name,  [10] Which the children  of Aaron,  being of the families  of the Kohathites,  who were of the children  of Levi,  had: for theirs was the first  lot.  [11] And they gave  the father  of Anak,  which city is Hebron,  in the hill  country of Judah,  with the suburbs  thereof round about  it. [12] But the fields  of the city,  and the villages  thereof, gave  they to Caleb  the son  of Jephunneh  for his possession.  [13] Thus they gave  to the children  of Aaron  the priest  Hebron  with her suburbs,  to be a city  of refuge  for the slayer;  and Libnah  with her suburbs,  [14] And Jattir  with her suburbs,  and Eshtemoa  with her suburbs,  [15] And Holon  with her suburbs,  and Debir  with her suburbs,  [16] And Ain  with her suburbs,  and Juttah  with her suburbs,  and Bethshemesh  with her suburbs;  nine  cities  out of those two  tribes.  [17] And out of the tribe  of Benjamin,  Gibeon  with her suburbs,  Geba  with her suburbs,  [18] Anathoth  with her suburbs,  and Almon  with her suburbs;  four  cities.  [19] All the cities  of the children  of Aaron,  the priests,  were thirteen  cities  with their suburbs.  [20] And the families  of the children  of Kohath,  the Levites  which remained  of the children  of Kohath,  even they had the cities  of their lot  out of the tribe  of Ephraim.  [21] For they gave  them Shechem  with her suburbs  in mount  Ephraim,  to be a city  of refuge  for the slayer;  and Gezer  with her suburbs,  [22] And Kibzaim  with her suburbs,  and Bethhoron  with her suburbs;  four  cities.  [23] And out of the tribe  of Dan,  Eltekeh  with her suburbs,  Gibbethon  with her suburbs,  [24] Aijalon  with her suburbs,  Gathrimmon  with her suburbs;  four  cities.  [25] And out of the half  tribe  of Manasseh,  Tanach  with her suburbs,  and Gathrimmon  with her suburbs;  two  cities.  [26] All the cities  were ten  with their suburbs  for the families  of the children  of Kohath  that remained.  [27] And unto the children  of Gershon,  of the families  of the Levites,  out of the other half  tribe  of Manasseh  they gave Golan  in Bashan  with her suburbs,  to be a city  of refuge  for the slayer;  and Beeshterah  with her suburbs;  two  cities.  [28] And out of the tribe  of Issachar,  Kishon  with her suburbs,  Dabareh  with her suburbs,  [29] Jarmuth  with her suburbs,  Engannim  with her suburbs;  four  cities.  [30] And out of the tribe  of Asher,  Mishal  with her suburbs,  Abdon  with her suburbs,  [31] Helkath  with her suburbs,  and Rehob  with her suburbs;  four  cities.  [32] And out of the tribe  of Naphtali,  Kedesh  in Galilee  with her suburbs,  to be a city  of refuge  for the slayer;  and Hammothdor  with her suburbs,  and Kartan  with her suburbs;  three  cities.  [33] All the cities  of the Gershonites  according to their families  were thirteen  cities  with their suburbs.
