Joshua 18:4-6

Common English Bible

⁴ Pick out three men for each tribe. I will send them out, and they will go up and travel throughout the land. They will write a description of it as the basis for determining their legacy. Then they will come back to me. ⁵ They will divide up the land among themselves into seven portions. Judah will stay on its territory to the south. The house of Joseph will stay on their territory to the north. ⁶ But you will write a report in seven parts and bring the report back here to me. Then I will cast the lot for you here, before the Lord our God.
