7So divide this land. It will be an inheritance for the nine tribes and half of the tribe of Manasseh."
8The tribes of Reuben and Gad with half of the tribe of Manasseh had received their inheritance east of the Jordan River, since the LORD's servant Moses had already given it to them. 9The border extended from Aroer on the edge of the Arnon Valley, including the city in the middle of the valley, and the whole plateau from Medeba to Dibon. 10It included all the cities of King Sihon of the Amorites up to the border of Ammon. Sihon's capital was Heshbon. 11It also included Gilead, the territory of the people of Geshur and Maacath, all of Mount Hermon, and all of Bashan as far as Salecah 12(the whole kingdom of Og in Bashan). Og ruled in Ashtaroth and Edrei. He was the last of the Rephaim. Moses had defeated them and forced them out. 13But the Israelites did not force out the people of Geshur and Maacath. So they still live in Israel today. 14Moses did not give any land as an inheritance to the tribe of Levi. The sacrifices offered to the LORD God of Israel are what the Levites inherited, as the LORD had promised them.
15Moses gave some land as an inheritance to the tribe of Reuben for their families. 16Their territory extended from Aroer on the edge of the Arnon Valley, including the city in the middle of the valley and the whole plateau near Medeba. 17It included Heshbon and all its cities on the plateau, Dibon, Bamoth Baal, Beth Baal Meon, 18Jahaz, Kedemoth, Mephaath, 19Kiriathaim, Sibmah, Zereth Shahar on the mountain in the valley, 20Beth Peor, the slopes of Pisgah, and Beth Jeshimoth. 21It also included all the cities of the plateau, the whole kingdom of King Sihon of the Amorites, who ruled in Heshbon. Moses defeated him and Midian's leaders-Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur, and Reba. They were princes of Sihon, who lived in that country. 22Along with these leaders, the people of Israel also killed Balaam, son of Beor, who used black magic. 23The border of Reuben's territory was the Jordan River. This was Reuben's inheritance for its families. It included cities with their villages.
24Moses gave some land as an inheritance to the tribe of Gad for its families. 25Their territory included Jazer, all the cities of Gilead, and half of Ammon as far as Aroer, which is by Rabbah. 26It extended from Heshbon to Ramath Mizpeh and Betonim, and from Mahanaim as far as the border of Lidbir. 27In the Jordan Valley it included Beth Haram, Beth Nimrah, Succoth, and Zaphon, the rest of the kingdom of King Sihon of Heshbon. The Jordan River served as its western border, extending to the end of the Sea of Galilee. 28This was Gad's inheritance for its families. It included cities with their villages.
29Moses gave some land as an inheritance to half of the tribe of Manasseh. It was only for the families of that half of the tribe. 30Their territory extended from Mahanaim and included all of Bashan (the whole kingdom of King Og of Bashan) and all 60 settlements of Jair that were in Bashan. 31It also included half of Gilead with Ashtaroth and Edrei, the royal cities of Og in Bashan. They were given to half the families of Machir, son of Manasseh, [for their inheritance].
32This is the land that Moses distributed on Moab's plains, east of the Jordan River near Jericho. 33Moses did not give any land as an inheritance to the tribe of Levi. The LORD God of Israel is what they inherited, as he had promised them.
