Joshua 19:5-22 Common English Bible (CEB)

5. Ziklag, Beth-marcaboth, Hazar-susah,

6. Beth-lebaoth, and Sharuhen. In total: thirteen cities and their surrounding areas.

7. Ain, Rimmon, Ether, and Ashan. In total: four cities and their surrounding areas.

8. In addition were all the areas that surround these cities as far as Baalath-beer and Ramah of the arid southern plain. This is the legacy of the clans of the Simeonite tribe.

9. Some of the portion of the people of Judah belonged to the legacy of the people of Simeon. This was because the portion of the people of Judah was too large for them. So the people of Simeon received a legacy inside Judah’s legacy.

10. The lot turned up third for the clans of Zebulun. The border of their legacy ran as far as Sarid.

11. Their border went up westward to Maralah, touched Dabbesheth, and touched the ravine that is opposite Jokneam.

12. It reversed from Sarid eastward toward the east to the border of Chisloth-tabor. It went to Daberath and then up to Japhia.

13. From there it passed on the east side, running eastward to Gath-hepher and Eth-kazin. Going to Rimmon, it bent toward Neah.

14. The border turned north of Hannathon and ended at the Iphtah-el Valley.

15. They also owned Kattath, Nahalal, Shimron, Idalah, and Bethlehem; in total: twelve cities and their surrounding areas.

16. These cities and their surrounding areas are the legacy of Zebulun’s clans.

17. The lot went out fourth for the clans of Issachar.

18. Their border ran toward Jezreel. They also owned Chesulloth, Shunem,

19. Hapharaim, Shion, Anaharath,

20. Rabbith, Kishion, Ebez,

21. Remeth, En-gannim, En-haddah, and Beth-pazzez.

22. The border touched Tabor, Shahazumah, and Beth-shemesh. Their border ended at the Jordan; in total: sixteen cities with their surrounding areas.
