Joshua 18:3 in Context — Joshua 18
1 Toute l’assemblée des enfants d’Israël se réunit à Silo, et ils y placèrent la tente d’assignation. Le pays était soumis devant eux.
2 Il restait sept tribus des enfants d’Israël qui n’avaient pas encore reçu leur héritage.
3 Josué dit aux enfants d’Israël: Jusques à quand négligerez-vous de prendre possession du pays que l’Éternel, le Dieu de vos pères, vous a donné?
4 Choisissez trois hommes par tribu, et je les ferai partir. Ils se lèveront, parcourront le pays, traceront un plan en vue du partage, et reviendront auprès de moi.
5 Ils le diviseront en sept parts; Juda restera dans ses limites au midi, et la maison de Joseph restera dans ses limites au nord.
