And the land was subdued before them. 2 And there remained among the sons of Israel seven tribes which had not yet received their inheritance. 3 And Joshua said to the sons of Israel, How long will you fail to go in to possess the land which Jehovah, the God of your fathers has given you? 4 Give from among you three men for each tribe. And I will send them, and they shall rise and go through the land and map it according to the inheritance of them. And they shall come to me. 5 And they shall divide it into seven parts. Judah shall stay within their border on the south, and the house of Joseph shall stay within their borders on the north. 6 And you shall map the land into seven parts and bring it here to me, so that I may cast lots here for you before Jehovah our God. 7 But the Levites have no part among you.
