Joshua 18:3-5

New American Standard Bible

³ So Joshua said to the sons of Israel, “^(A)How long will you ^[a]put off entering to take possession of the land which the Lord, the God of your fathers, has given you? ⁴ Provide for yourselves three men from ^[b]each tribe so that I may send them, and that they may arise and walk through the land and write a description of it according to their inheritance; then they shall ^[c]return to me. ⁵ And they shall divide it into seven portions; ^(B)Judah shall stay in its territory on the south, and the house of Joseph shall stay in their territory on the north.
