Joshua 19:2-11 Amplified Bible (AMP)

2. And they had for their inheritance: Beersheba or Sheba, Moladah,

3. Hazarshual, Balah, Ezem,

4. Eltolad, Bethul, Hormah,

5. Ziklag, Beth-marcaboth, Hazar-susah,

6. Beth-lebaoth, and Sharuhen; [making] thirteen cities and their villages;

7. Ain [with] Rimmon, Ether, and Ashan; [making] four cities and their villages;

8. And all the villages around these cities as far as Baalath-beer, or Ramah of the Negeb. This was the possession of the Simeonites according to their families.

9. Out of the part assigned to the Judahites was the inheritance of the tribe of Simeon, for the portion of the tribe of Judah was too large for them. Therefore the tribe of Simeon had its inheritance in the midst of Judah's inheritance.

10. The third lot came up for the tribe of Zebulun according to their families. The border of its inheritance extended to Sarid.

11. Then its boundary went up westward and on to Maralah and reached to Dabbesheth and to the brook east of Jokneam.
