Joshua 18:7 CPDV

⁵  Divide the land for yourselves into seven parts. Let Judah be its bounds on the southern side, and the house of Joseph to the north.

⁶  The land that is in the middle, between these, write it down in seven parts. And you shall come to me, so that I may cast lots for you about this, before the Lord your God.

⁷  But there is no portion among you for the Levites. Instead, the priesthood of the Lord is their inheritance. And Gad and Reuben, and the one half tribe of Manasseh, have already received their possessions beyond the Jordan in the eastern region, which Moses, the servant of the Lord, gave to them.'

⁸  And when the men had risen up, so that they might go out to describe the land, Joshua instructed them, saying, 'Circle through the land, and describe it, and return to me, so that I may cast lots for you about this, before the Lord, in Shiloh.'

⁹  And so they went out. And surveying it, they divided it into seven parts, writing it in a book. And they returned to Joshua, to the camp at Shiloh.
