Joshua 13:3-10 Modern English Version (MEV)

3. (from the Shihor east of Egypt northward to the boundary of Ekron, which is counted as Canaanite; the cities of the five Philistine governors: Gaza, Ashdod, Ashkelon, Gath, and Ekron), and also the Avvites’ lands.

4. Also remaining in the south is all the land of the Canaanites, Arah owned by the Sidonians, as far as Aphek at the Amorite boundary,

5. the land of the Gebalites and all Lebanon to the east, and from Baal Gad at the foot of Mount Hermon to Lebo Hamath.

6. “I will drive out from before the children of Israel all the inhabitants of the hill country from Lebanon to Misrephoth Maim and all the Sidonians. Be sure to divide these lands by lot as an inheritance for Israel as I have commanded you.

7. So now, divide this land as an inheritance for the nine tribes and the half-tribe of Manasseh.”

8. With the other half-tribe of Manasseh, Reuben and Gad took their inheritance that Moses gave to them on the east side of the Jordan, as Moses the servant of the Lord had given them:

9. from Aroer on the bank of the River Arnon, the city in the middle of the valley, all the plain from Medeba to Dibon,

10. all the cities of King Sihon of the Amorites who reigned in Heshbon, and the land up to the Ammonite border.
