The western border was the Mediterranean Sea. ¹  These were the borders of the tribe of Judah and its clans. ² 

For the Lord your God dried up the water of the Jordan before you while you crossed over. It was just like when the Lord your God dried up the Red Sea before us while we crossed it. ¹ 

It then descended westward to Japhletite territory, as far as the territory of lower Beth Horon and Gezer, and ended at the sea.

They assigned them Kiriath Arba (Arba was the father of Anak), that is, Hebron, in the hill country of Judah, along with its surrounding grazing areas.

It then crossed to Azmon, extended to the Stream of Egypt, ¹  and ended at the sea. This was their ²  southern border.

When they finished dividing the land into its regions, the Israelites gave Joshua son of Nun some land. ¹ 

Achan told Joshua, “It is true. I have sinned against the Lord God of Israel in this way: ¹ 

The land allotted to the tribe of Gad by its clans included these cities and their towns. ¹ 

It went northward, extending to En Shemesh and Geliloth opposite the Pass ¹  of Adummim, and descended to the Stone of Bohan son of Reuben.

The Lord handed Lachish over to Israel and they ¹  captured it on the second day. They put the sword to all who lived there, just as they had done to Libnah.

At that time Joshua turned, captured Hazor, ¹  and struck down its king with the sword, for Hazor was at that time ²  the leader of all these kingdoms.

This was the land assigned to the tribe of Zebulun ¹  by its clans, including these cities and their towns.

This was the land assigned to the tribe of Issachar ¹  by its clans, including the cities and their towns.

This was the land assigned to the tribe of Asher ¹  by its clans, including these cities and their towns.

This was the land assigned to the tribe of Naphtali ¹  by its clans, including the cities and their towns.

At that time Joshua made this solemn declaration: ¹  “The man who attempts to rebuild ²  this city of Jericho ³  will stand condemned before the Lord. ⁴  He will lose his firstborn son when he lays its foundations and his youngest son when he erects its gates!” ⁵ 

I sent terror ¹  ahead of you to drive out before you the two ²  Amorite kings. I gave you the victory; it was not by your swords or bows. ³ 

Pick three men from each tribe. I will send them out to walk through the land and make a map of it for me. ¹ 

just as Moses the Lord’s servant had commanded the Israelites. As described in the law scroll of Moses, it was made with uncut stones untouched by an iron tool. ¹  They offered burnt sacrifices on it and sacrificed tokens of peace. ² 

As the Lord had instructed, they gave him the city he requested – Timnath Serah in the Ephraimite hill country. He built up the city and lived in it.
