Joshua 13:8-33
New English Translation

Tribal Lands East of the Jordan

8 The other half of Manasseh,[a] Reuben, and Gad received their allotted tribal lands on east side of the Jordan,[b] just as Moses, the Lord’s servant, had assigned them. 9 Their territory started[c] from Aroer (on the edge of the Arnon Valley), included the city in the middle of the valley, the whole plain of Medeba as far as Dibon, 10 and all the cities of King Sihon of the Amorites who ruled in Heshbon, and ended at the Ammonite border. 11 Their territory also included[d] Gilead, Geshurite and Maacathite territory, all Mount Hermon, and all Bashan to Salecah— 12 the whole kingdom of Og in Bashan, who ruled in Ashtaroth and Edrei. (He was one of the few remaining Rephaites.)[e] Moses defeated them and took their lands.[f] 13 But the Israelites did not conquer[g] the Geshurites and Maacathites; Geshur and Maacah live among Israel to this very day. 14 However, Moses[h] did not assign land as an inheritance[i] to the Levites; their inheritance[j] is the sacrificial offerings[k] made to the Lord God of Israel, as he instructed[l] them.

15 Moses assigned land to the tribe of Reuben[m] by its clans. 16 Their territory started at Aroer[n] (on the edge of the Arnon Valley) and included the city in the middle of the valley, the whole plain of Medeba, 17 Heshbon and all its surrounding cities on the plain, 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 It encompassed[o] all the cities of the plain and the whole realm of King Sihon of the Amorites who ruled in Heshbon. Moses defeated him and the Midianite leaders Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur, and Reba (they were subjects of Sihon and lived in his territory).[p] 22 The Israelites killed Balaam son of Beor, the omen reader,[q] along with the others.[r] 23 The border of the tribe of Reuben was the Jordan. The land allotted to the tribe of Reuben by its clans included these cities and their towns.[s]

24 Moses assigned land to the tribe of Gad[t] by its clans. 25 Their territory included Jazer, all the cities of Gilead, and half the Ammonite territory[u] as far as Aroer near[v] Rabbah. 26 Their territory ran[w] from Heshbon to Ramath Mizpah and Betonim, and from Mahanaim to the territory of Debir. 27 It included the valley of Beth Haram,[x] Beth Nimrah, Sukkoth, and Zaphon, and the rest of the realm of King Sihon of Heshbon, the area east of the Jordan to the end of the Sea of Kinnereth.[y] 28 The land allotted to the tribe of Gad by its clans included these cities and their towns.[z]

29 Moses assigned land to the half-tribe of Manasseh[aa] by its clans. 30 Their territory started at[ab] Mahanaim and encompassed all Bashan, the whole realm of King Og of Bashan, including all sixty cities in Havvoth Jair[ac] in Bashan. 31 Half of Gilead, Ashtaroth, and Edrei, cities in the kingdom of Og in Bashan, were assigned to the descendants of Makir son of Manasseh, to half the descendants of Makir by their clans.

32 These are the land assignments made by Moses[ad] in the rift valley plains of Moab[ae] east of the Jordan River opposite Jericho.[af] 33 However, Moses did not assign land as an inheritance[ag] to the Levites; their inheritance[ah] is the Lord God of Israel, as he instructed[ai] them.

Joshua 13:8-33
New American Standard Bible

8 With [a]the other half-tribe, the Reubenites and the Gadites received their inheritance which Moses gave them (A)beyond the Jordan to the east, just as Moses the servant of the Lord gave to them; 9 from Aroer, which is on the edge of the Valley of the Arnon, with the city which is in the middle of the valley, and all the plain of Medeba, as far as Dibon; 10 and all the cities of Sihon king of the Amorites, who reigned in Heshbon, as far as the border of the sons of Ammon; 11 and (B)Gilead, and the [b]territory of the Geshurites and Maacathites, and all Mount Hermon, and all Bashan as far as Salecah; 12 all the kingdom of (C)Og in Bashan, who reigned in Ashtaroth and in Edrei (he alone was left of the remnant of the Rephaim); for Moses (D)struck them and [c]drove them out. 13 But the sons of Israel did not [d]drive out the Geshurites or the Maacathites; instead, Geshur and Maacath live among Israel to this day. 14 (E)Only to the tribe of Levi he did not give an inheritance; the offerings by fire to the Lord, the God of Israel, are [e]their inheritance, as He spoke to him.

15 So Moses gave an inheritance to the tribe of the sons of Reuben according to their families. 16 Their [f]territory was (F)from Aroer, which is on the edge of the Valley of the Arnon, with the city which is in the middle of the valley and all the plain by Medeba; 17 Heshbon and all its cities which are on the plain: Dibon, Bamoth-baal, Beth-baal-meon, 18 (G)Jahaz, Kedemoth, Mephaath, 19 (H)Kiriathaim, Sibmah, Zereth-shahar on the hill of the valley, 20 Beth-peor, the slopes of Pisgah, Beth-jeshimoth, 21 even all the cities of the plain, and all the kingdom of Sihon king of the Amorites, who reigned in Heshbon, whom Moses struck with the leaders of Midian, (I)Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur, and Reba, the leaders of Sihon, who lived in the land. 22 The sons of Israel also killed (J)Balaam the son of Beor, the diviner, with the sword among the rest of their dead. 23 The border of the sons of Reuben was the [g]Jordan. This was the inheritance of the sons of Reuben according to their families, the cities and their villages.

24 Moses also gave an inheritance to the tribe of Gad, to the sons of Gad according to their families. 25 Their territory was (K)Jazer and all the cities of Gilead, and half the land of the sons of Ammon, as far as Aroer which is opposite Rabbah; 26 and from Heshbon as far as Ramath-mizpeh and Betonim, and from Mahanaim as far as the border of [h]Debir; 27 and in the valley, Beth-haram, Beth-nimrah, Succoth, and Zaphon, the rest of the kingdom of Sihon king of Heshbon, with the Jordan [i]as a border, as far as the lower end of the Sea of [j](L)Chinnereth beyond the Jordan to the east. 28 This is the inheritance of the sons of Gad according to their families, the cities and their villages.

29 Moses also gave an inheritance to the half-tribe of Manasseh; and it was for the half-tribe of the sons of Manasseh according to their families. 30 Their territory was from Mahanaim, all Bashan, all the kingdom of Og king of Bashan, and all (M)the [k]towns of Jair, which are in Bashan, sixty cities; 31 also half of Gilead, with (N)Ashtaroth and Edrei, the cities of the kingdom of Og in Bashan, were for the sons of Machir the son of Manasseh, for half of the sons of Machir according to their families.

32 These are the territories which Moses apportioned as an inheritance in the plains of Moab, beyond the Jordan at Jericho to the east. 33 But (O)to the tribe of Levi, Moses did not give an inheritance; the Lord, the God of Israel, is their inheritance, as He had [l]promised to them.
