Joshua 18:4-6

International Standard Version

⁴ Appoint three men from each tribe and I’ll send them. They’ll begin to go through the land and record a description of it, categorized according to their inheritance, and then they’ll report^[a] back to me. ⁵ They’ll divide it seven ways. Judah will stay in its territory on the south and the house of Joseph will remain in its territory on the north. ⁶ Lay out the land in seven divisions, then bring your report^[b] here to me. I will then cast lots in the presence of the Lord our God.
