Conquest of Canaan

the king of Kedesh, one; the king of Jokneam in Carmel, one;

the king of Dor in Naphath-dor, one; the king of Goiim in Gilgal, one;

and the king of Tirzah, one. So there were thirty-one kings in all.

Now Joshua was old and well along in years, and the LORD said to him, “You are old and well along in years, but very much of the land remains to be possessed.

This is the land that remains:

All the territory of the Philistines and the Geshurites, from the Shihor east of Egypt to the territory of Ekron on the north (considered to be Canaanite territory)—that of the five Philistine rulers of Gaza, Ashdod, Ashkelon, Gath, and Ekron, as well as that of the Avvites;

to the south, all the land of the Canaanites, from Mearah of the Sidonians to Aphek, as far as the border of the Amorites;

the land of the Gebalites; and all Lebanon to the east, from Baal-gad below Mount Hermon to Lebo-hamath.

All the inhabitants of the hill country from Lebanon to Misrephoth-maim—all the Sidonians—I Myself will drive out before the Israelites. Be sure to divide it by lot as an inheritance to Israel, as I have commanded you.

Now therefore divide this land as an inheritance to the nine tribes and the half-tribe of Manasseh.”

The other half of Manasseh, along with the Reubenites and Gadites, had received the inheritance Moses had given them beyond the Jordan to the east, just as Moses the servant of the LORD had assigned to them:

The area from Aroer on the rim of the Arnon Valley, along with the city in the middle of the valley, the whole plateau of Medeba as far as Dibon,

and all the cities of Sihon king of the Amorites who reigned in Heshbon, as far as the border of the Ammonites;

also Gilead and the territory of the Geshurites and Maacathites, all of Mount Hermon, and all Bashan as far as Salecah—

the whole kingdom of Og in Bashan, who had reigned in Ashtaroth and Edrei and had remained as a remnant of the Rephaim. Moses had struck them down and dispossessed them,

but the Israelites did not drive out the Geshurites or the Maacathites. So Geshur and Maacath dwell among the Israelites to this day.

To the tribe of Levi, however, Moses had given no inheritance. The offerings made by fire to the LORD, the God of Israel, are their inheritance, just as He had promised them.

This is what Moses had given to the clans of the tribe of Reuben:

The territory from Aroer on the rim of the Arnon Valley, along with the city in the middle of the valley, to the whole plateau beyond Medeba,

to Heshbon and all its cities on the plateau, including Dibon, Bamoth-baal, Beth-baal-meon,

Jahaz, Kedemoth, Mephaath,

Kiriathaim, Sibmah, Zereth-shahar on the hill in the valley,

Beth-peor, the slopes of Pisgah, and Beth-jeshimoth—

all the cities of the plateau and all the kingdom of Sihon king of the Amorites, who reigned in Heshbon until Moses killed him and the chiefs of Midian (Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur, and Reba), the princes of Sihon who lived in the land.

The Israelites also killed the diviner Balaam son of Beor along with the others they put to the sword.
