Joshua 19:7-9
New International Version
7 Ain, Rimmon,(A) Ether and Ashan(B)—four towns and their villages— 8 and all the villages around these towns as far as Baalath Beer (Ramah in the Negev).(C)
This was the inheritance of the tribe of the Simeonites, according to its clans. 9 The inheritance of the Simeonites was taken from the share of Judah,(D) because Judah’s portion was more than they needed. So the Simeonites received their inheritance within the territory of Judah.(E)
