Joshua 16:1-10
And the lot came out for the children of Joseph from the Jordan at Jericho, at the waters of Jericho on the east, even the wilderness, going up from Jericho through the hill- country to Beth- el;and it went out from Beth- el to Luz, and passed along unto the border of the Archites to Ataroth;and it went down westward to the border of the Japhletites, unto the border of Beth- horon the nether, even unto Gezer; and the goings out thereof were at the sea.And the children of Joseph, Manasseh and Ephraim, took their inheritance.And the border of the children of Ephraim according to their families was thus: the border of their inheritance eastward was Ataroth- addar, unto Beth- horon the upper;and the border went out westward at Michmethath on the north; and the border turned about eastward unto Taanath- shiloh, and passed along it on the east of Janoah;and it went down from Janoah to Ataroth, and to Naarah, and reached unto Jericho, and went out at the Jordan.From Tappuah the border went along westward to the brook of Kanah; and the goings out thereof were at the sea. This is the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Ephraim according to their families;together with the cities which were set apart for the children of Ephraim in the midst of the inheritance of the children of Manasseh, all the cities with their villages.And they drove not out the Canaanites that dwelt in Gezer: but the Canaanites dwell in the midst of Ephraim unto this day, and are become servants to do taskwork.

And the lot for the tribe of the children of Judah according to their families was unto the border of Edom, even to the wilderness of Zin southward, at the uttermost part of the south.And their south border was from the uttermost part of the Salt Sea, from the bay that looketh southward;and it went out southward of the ascent of Akrabbim, and passed along to Zin, and went up by the south of Kadesh- barnea, and passed along by Hezron, and went up to Addar, and turned about to Karka;and it passed along to Azmon, and went out at the brook of Egypt; and the goings out of the border were at the sea: this shall be your south border.And the east border was the Salt Sea, even unto the end of the Jordan. And the border of the north quarter was from the bay of the sea at the end of the Jordan;and the border went up to Beth- hoglah, and passed along by the north of Beth- arabah; and the border went up to the stone of Bohan the son of Reuben;and the border went up to Debir from the valley of Achor, and so northward, looking toward Gilgal, that is over against the ascent of Adummim, which is on the south side of the river; and the border passed along to the waters of En- shemesh, and the goings out thereof were at En- rogel;and the border went up by the valley of the son of Hinnom unto the side of the Jebusite southward( the same is Jerusalem); and the border went up to the top of the mountain that lieth before the valley of Hinnom westward, which is at the uttermost part of the vale of Rephaim northward;and the border extended from the top of the mountain unto the fountain of the waters of Nephtoah, and went out to the cities of mount Ephron; and the border extended to Baalah( the same is Kiriath- jearim);and the border turned about from Baalah westward unto mount Seir, and passed along unto the side of mount Jearim on the north( the same is Chesalon), and went down to Beth- shemesh, and passed along by Timnah;and the border went out unto the side of Ekron northward; and the border extended to Shikkeron, and passed along to mount Baalah, and went out at Jabneel; and the goings out of the border were at the sea.And the west border was to the great sea, and the border thereof. This is the border of the children of Judah round about according to their families.

Joshua 19:1-9
And the second lot came out for Simeon, even for the tribe of the children of Simeon according to their families: and their inheritance was in the midst of the inheritance of the children of Judah.And they had for their inheritance Beer- sheba, or Sheba, and Moladah,and Hazar- shual, and Balah, and Ezem,and Eltolad, and Bethul, and Hormah,and Ziklag, and Beth- marcaboth, and Hazar- susah,and Beth- lebaoth, and Sharuhen; thirteen cities with their villages:Ain, Rimmon, and Ether, and Ashan; four cities with their villages:and all the villages that were round about these cities to Baalath- beer, Ramah of the South. This is the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Simeon according to their families.Out of the part of the children of Judah was the inheritance of the children of Simeon; for the portion of the children of Judah was too much for them: therefore the children of Simeon had inheritance in the midst of their inheritance.
