Joshua 19:7-9

Expanded Bible

⁷ They received the towns of Ain, Rimmon, Ether, and Ashan, four towns and their villages. ⁸ They also received all the villages around these towns as far as Baalath Beer (this is the same as Ramah in ·southern Canaan [^Lthe Negev]). So ·these were the lands given to [this was the inheritance of] the ·family groups [clans] in the tribe of Simeon. ⁹ The land of the Simeonites was taken from part of the land of Judah. Since Judah had much more land than they needed, the Simeonites received ·part of their land [^Ltheir inheritance in the midst of Judah’s inheritance].
