Joshua 14:2 in Context — Joshua 14

1 Voici ce que les enfants d’Israël reçurent en héritage dans le pays de Canaan, ce que partagèrent entre eux le sacrificateur Éléazar, Josué, fils de Nun, et les chefs de famille des tribus des enfants d’Israël.

2 Le partage eut lieu d’après le sort, comme l’Éternel l’avait ordonné par Moïse, pour les neuf tribus et pour la demi-tribu.

3 Car Moïse avait donné un héritage aux deux tribus et à la demi-tribu de l’autre côté du Jourdain; mais il n’avait point donné aux Lévites d’héritage parmi eux.

4 Les fils de Joseph formaient deux tribus, Manassé et Éphraïm; et l’on ne donna point de part aux Lévites dans le pays, si ce n’est des villes pour habitation, et les banlieues pour leurs troupeaux et pour leurs biens.
