Joshua 13:14-21 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

14. The tribe of Levi was the only one that did not get any land. Instead, they were to be given all the burned sacrifices made to the Lord, the God of Israel. That is what the Lord had promised them.

15. Moses had given each family group from the tribe of Reuben some land. This is the land they were given:

16. It was the land from Aroer near the Arnon Ravine to the town of Medeba. This included the whole plain and the town in the middle of the ravine.

17. The land continued to Heshbon. It included all the towns on the plain. These towns were Dibon, Bamoth Baal and Beth Baal Meon.

18. They included Jahaz, Kedemoth, Mephaath,

19. Kiriathaim, Sibmah and Zereth Shahar on the hill in the valley.

20. They also included Beth Peor, the hills of Pisgah and Beth Jeshimoth.

21. So that land included all the towns on the plain and all the area that Sihon the king of the Amorites had ruled. He ruled from the town of Heshbon. But Moses had defeated him and the leaders of the Midianites. Those leaders included Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur and Reba. All these leaders fought together with Sihon. And they lived in that country.
