Joshua 13:15-23
15
This is what Moses had given to the clans of the tribe of Reuben:
16
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,
17
to Heshbon and all its cities on the plateau, including Dibon, Bamoth-baal, Beth-baal-meon,
18
Jahaz, Kedemoth, Mephaath,
19
Kiriathaim, Sibmah, Zereth-shahar on the hill in the valley,
20
Beth-peor, the slopes of Pisgah, and Beth-jeshimoth—
21
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.
22
The Israelites also killed the diviner Balaam son of Beor along with the others they put to the sword.
23
And the border of the Reubenites was the bank of the Jordan. This was the inheritance of the clans of the Reubenites, including the cities and villages.
