Joshua 18:3-5

English Standard Version

³ So Joshua said to the people of Israel, ^(A)“How long will you put off going in to take possession of the land, which the Lord, the God of your fathers, has given you? ⁴ Provide three men from each tribe, and I will send them out that they may set out and go up and down the land. They shall write a description of it with a view to their inheritances, and then come to me. ⁵ They shall divide it into seven portions. ^(B)Judah shall continue in his territory on the south, ^(C)and the house of Joseph shall continue in their territory on the north.
