Land That Remains to Be Possessed

13 Now ^(A)Joshua was old, advanced in years, and Yahweh said to him, “You are old, advanced in years, and very much of the land remains to be possessed. ² This is the land that remains: all the regions of the Philistines and all those of the ^(B)Geshurites; ³ from the Shihor which is ^[a]east of Egypt, even as far as the border of Ekron to the north (it is counted as Canaanite); the ^(C)five lords of the Philistines: the Gazite, the Ashdodite, the Ashkelonite, the Gittite, the Ekronite; and the Avvite ^4 [b]to the south, all the land of the Canaanite, and Mearah that belongs to the Sidonians, as far as ^(D)Aphek, to the border of the ^(E)Amorite; ⁵ and the land of the ^(F)Gebalite, and all of Lebanon, to the east toward the sunrise, ^(G)from Baal-gad below Mount Hermon as far as ^[c]Lebo-hamath. ⁶ All the inhabitants of the hill country from Lebanon as far as ^(H)Misrephoth-maim, all the Sidonians, I will dispossess them from before the sons of Israel; ^(I)only allot it to Israel for an inheritance as I have commanded you. ⁷ So now, apportion this land for an inheritance to the nine tribes and the half-tribe of Manasseh.”
