New International Reader's Version

Joshua 19:8-11 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

8. The towns and all of the villages that were around them reached all the way to Ramah in the Negev Desert. That was the share of land the tribe of Simeon received, family group by family group.

9. Simeon's share of land was taken from Judah's share. That's because Judah had more land than they needed. So the people of Simeon received their share of land inside the territory of Judah.

10. The third lot that was drawn out was for the tribe of Zebulun, family group by family group. Here are the borders of Zebulun's territory. The border of their share of land went as far as Sarid.

11. It ran west to Maralah and touched Dabbesheth. It reached to the valley near Jokneam.
