Joshua 18:6 in Context — Joshua 18

4 Assinalai três homens de cada tribo, para que eu os envie, e que eles se levantem, e percorram a terra, e a descrevam conforme suas propriedades, e se voltem a mim.

5 E a dividirão em sete partes: e Judá estará em seu termo ao sul, e os da casa de José estarão no seu ao norte.

6 Vós, pois, demarcareis a terra em sete partes, e me trareis a descrição aqui, e eu vos lançarei as sortes aqui diante do SENHOR nosso Deus.

7 Porém os levitas nenhuma parte têm entre vós; porque o sacerdócio do SENHOR é a herança deles: Gade também e Rúben, e a meia tribo de Manassés, já receberam sua herança da outra parte do Jordão ao oriente, a qual lhes deu Moisés servo do SENHOR.

8 Então aqueles homens se levantaram e se foram; e Josué deu ordem aos que iam demarcar a terra, dizendo-lhes: Ide, percorrei a terra, e demarcai-a, e voltai a mim, para que eu vos lance as sortes aqui diante do SENHOR em Siló.
