Joshua 18:7-9
New English Translation
7 But the Levites will not have an allotted portion among you, for their inheritance is to serve the Lord.[a] Gad, Reuben, and the half-tribe of Manasseh have already received their allotted land[b] east of the Jordan, which Moses the Lord’s servant assigned them.”
8 When the men started out, Joshua told those going to map out the land, “Go, walk through the land, map it out, and return to me. Then I will draw lots for you before the Lord here in Shiloh.” 9 The men journeyed[c] through the land and mapped it and its cities out into seven regions on a scroll. Then they came to Joshua at the camp in Shiloh.
