Joshua 19:1-9 Lot for the Children of Simeon NKJV


Joshua 19:1-9 The second lot came out for Simeon, for the tribe of the children of Simeon according to their families. And their inheritance was within the inheritance of the children of Judah.

They had in their inheritance Beersheba (Sheba), Moladah,

Hazar Shual, Balah, Ezem.

Eltolad, Bethul, Hormah,

Ziklag, Beth Marcaboth, Hazar Susah,

Beth Lebaoth, and Sharuhen; thirteen cities and their villages;

Ain, Rimmon, Ether, and Ashan; four cities and their villages;

and all the villages that were all around these cities as far as Baalath Beer, Ramah of the South. This was the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Simeon according to their families.

The inheritance of the children of Simeon was included in the share of the children of Judah, for the share of the children of Judah was too much for them. Therefore the children of Simeon had their inheritance within the inheritance of that people.

Judges 1:1-3 NOW after the death of Joshua it came to pass that the children of Israel asked the LORD, saying, "Who shall be first to go up for us against the Canaanites to fight against them?"

And the LORD said, "Judah shall go up. Indeed I have delivered the land into his hand."

So Judah said to Simeon his brother, "Come up with me to my allotted territory, that we might fight against the Canaanites; and I will likewise go with you to your allotted territory." And Simeon went with him.

1 Samuel 30:26-31 Now when David came to Ziklag, he sent some of the spoil to the elders of Judah, to his friends, saying, "Here is a present for you from the spoil of the enemies of the LORD"--

to those who were in Bethel, those who were in Rammoth of the South, those who were in Jattir,

those who were in Aroer, those who were in Siphmoth, those who were in Eshtemoa,

those who were in Rachal, those who were in the cities of the Jerahmeelites, those who were in the cities of the Kenites,

those who were in Hormah, those who were in Chorashan, those who were in Athach,

those who were in Hebron, and to all the places where David himself and his men were accustomed to rove.
