Joshua 21:9–42

And they gave out of the tribe of the children of Judah, and out of the tribe of the children of Simeon, ↦these cities which are here mentioned by name,⇇

Which the children of Aaron, being of the families of the Kohathites, who were of the children of Levi, had: for theirs was the first lot.⇉⇇

↦And they gave them ↦the city of Arba the father of Anak, which city ↦is Hebron, ↦in the hill country of Judah, with the suburbs thereof round about it.⇇

But the fields of the city, and the villages thereof, gave they to Caleb the son of Jephunneh for his possession.⇉⇇

Thus ↦they gave to the children of Aaron the priest ↦Hebron with her suburbs, to be ↦a city of refuge for the slayer; and ↦Libnah with her suburbs,⇇

And ↦Jattir with her suburbs, and ↦Eshtemoa with her suburbs,⇇

And ↦Holon with her suburbs, and Debir with her suburbs,⇉⇇

And ↦Ain with her suburbs, and ↦Juttah with her suburbs, and Bethshemesh with her suburbs; nine cities out of those two tribes.⇉⇇

And out of the tribe of Benjamin, ↦Gibeon with her suburbs, ↦Geba with her suburbs,⇇

↦Anathoth with her suburbs, and ↦Almon with her suburbs; four cities.⇇

All the cities of the children of Aaron, the priests, were thirteen cities with their suburbs.⇇

And the families of the children of Kohath, the Levites which remained of the children of Kohath, even they had the cities of their lot out of the tribe of Ephraim.⇉⇇

For they gave them ↦Shechem with her suburbs in mount Ephraim, to be a city of refuge for the slayer; and ↦Gezer with her suburbs,⇇

And Kibzaim with her suburbs, and Bethhoron with her suburbs; four cities.⇉⇇

And out of the tribe of Dan, ↦Eltekeh with her suburbs, Gibbethon with her suburbs,⇇

↦Aijalon with her suburbs, Gathrimmon with her suburbs; four cities.⇉⇇

And out of the half tribe of Manasseh, ↦Tanach with her suburbs, and Gathrimmon with her suburbs; two cities.⇇

All the cities were ten with their suburbs for the families of the children of Kohath that remained.⇇

And unto the children of Gershon, of the families of the Levites, out of the other half tribe of Manasseh they gave ↦Golan in Bashan with her suburbs, to be a city of refuge for the slayer; and Beeshterah with her suburbs; two cities.⇇

And out of the tribe of Issachar, Kishon with her suburbs, ↦Dabareh with her suburbs,⇇

↦Jarmuth with her suburbs, Engannim with her suburbs; four cities.⇇

And out of the tribe of Asher, ↦Mishal with her suburbs, Abdon with her suburbs,⇉⇇

Helkath with her suburbs, and ↦Rehob with her suburbs; four cities.⇇

And out of the tribe of Naphtali, ↦Kedesh in Galilee with her suburbs, to be a city of refuge for the slayer; and Hammothdor with her suburbs, and ↦Kartan with her suburbs; three cities.⇉⇇

All the cities of the Gershonites according to their families were thirteen cities with their suburbs.⇇

↦And unto the families of the children of Merari, the rest of the Levites, out of the tribe of Zebulun, ↦Jokneam with her suburbs, and Kartah with her suburbs,⇇

Dimnah with her suburbs, Nahalal with her suburbs; four cities.⇇

And out of the tribe of Reuben, ↦Bezer with her suburbs, and ↦Jahazah with her suburbs,⇇

Kedemoth with her suburbs, and Mephaath with her suburbs; four cities.⇇

And out of the tribe of Gad, ↦Ramoth in Gilead with her suburbs, to be a city of refuge for the slayer; and ↦Mahanaim with her suburbs,⇇

↦Heshbon with her suburbs, ↦Jazer with her suburbs; four cities in all.⇉⇇

So all the cities for the children of Merari by their families, which were remaining of the families of the Levites, were by their lot twelve cities.⇇

All the cities of the Levites ↦within the possession of the children of Israel were forty and eight cities with their suburbs.⇇

These cities were every one with their suburbs round about them: thus were all these cities.⇇
