Bible Reading for March 16

Joshua 16
[1] And the lot of the children of Joseph fell from Jordan by Jericho, unto the
water of Jericho on the east, to the wilderness that goeth up from Jericho
throughout mount Bethel,
[2] And goeth out from Bethel to Luz, and passeth along unto the borders of
Archi to Ataroth,
[3] And goeth down westward to the coast of Japhleti, unto the coast of
Beth-horon the nether, and to Gezer: and the goings out thereof are at the sea.
[4] So the children of Joseph, Manasseh and Ephraim, took their inheritance.
[5] And the border of the children of Ephraim according to their families was
thus: even the border of their inheritance on the east side was Ataroth-addar,
unto Beth-horon the upper; [6] And the border went out toward the sea to
Michmethah on the north side; and the border went about eastward unto
Taanath-shiloh, and passed by it on the east to Janohah;
[7] And it went down from Janohah to Ataroth, and to Naarath, and came to
Jericho, and went out at Jordan.
[8] The border went out from Tappuah westward unto the river Kanah; and the
goings out thereof were at the sea. This is the inheritance of the tribe of the
children of Ephraim by their families. [9] And the separate cities for the
children of Ephraim were among the inheritance of the children of Manasseh, all
the cities with their villages. [10] And they drave not out the Canaanites that
dwelt in Gezer: but the Canaanites dwell among the Ephraimites unto this day,
and serve under tribute.

Joshua 17
[1] There was also a lot for the tribe of Manasseh; for he was the firstborn of
Joseph; to wit, for Machir the firstborn of Manasseh, the father of Gilead:
because he was a man of war, therefore he had Gilead and Bashan. [2] There was
also a lot for the rest of the children of Manasseh by their families; for the
children of Abiezer, and for the children of Helek, and for the children of
Asriel, and for the children of Shechem, and for the children of Hepher, and
for the children of Shemida: these were the male children of Manasseh the son
of Joseph by their families. [3] But Zelophehad, the son of Hepher, the son of
Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh, had no sons, but daughters: and
these are the names of his daughters, Mahlah, and Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and
Tirzah. [4] And they came near before Eleazar the priest, and before Joshua the
son of Nun, and before the princes, saying, The LORD commanded Moses to give us
an inheritance among our brethren. Therefore according to the commandment of
the LORD he gave them an inheritance among the brethren of their father. [5]
And there fell ten portions to Manasseh, beside the land of Gilead and Bashan,
which were on the other side Jordan; [6] Because the daughters of Manasseh had
an inheritance among his sons: and the rest of Manasseh's sons had the land of
Gilead. [7] And the coast of Manasseh was from Asher to Michmethah, that lieth
before Shechem; and the border went along on the right hand unto the
inhabitants of En-tappuah.
[8] Now Manasseh had the land of Tappuah: but Tappuah on the border of Manasseh
belonged to the children of Ephraim; [9] And the coast descended unto the river
Kanah, southward of the river: these cities of Ephraim are among the cities of
Manasseh: the coast of Manasseh also was on the north side of the river, and
the outgoings of it were at the sea:
[10] Southward it was Ephraim's, and northward it was Manasseh's, and the sea
is his border; and they met together in Asher on the north, and in Issachar on
the east.
[11] And Manasseh had in Issachar and in Asher Beth-shean and her towns, and
Ibleam and her towns, and the inhabitants of Dor and her towns, and the
inhabitants of Endor and her towns, and the inhabitants of Taanach and her
towns, and the inhabitants of Megiddo and her towns, even three countries. [12]
Yet the children of Manasseh could not drive out the inhabitants of those
cities; but the Canaanites would dwell in that land. [13] Yet it came to pass,
when the children of Israel were waxen strong, that they put the Canaanites to
tribute; but did not utterly drive them out. [14] And the children of Joseph
spake unto Joshua, saying, Why hast thou given me but one lot and one portion
to inherit, seeing I am a great people, forasmuch as the LORD hath blessed me
hitherto? [15] And Joshua answered them, If thou be a great people, then get
thee up to the wood country, and cut down for thyself there in the land of the
Perizzites and of the giants, if mount Ephraim be too narrow for thee. [16] And
the children of Joseph said, The hill is not enough for us: and all the
Canaanites that dwell in the land of the valley have chariots of iron, both
they who are of Beth-shean and her towns, and they who are of the valley of
Jezreel.
[17] And Joshua spake unto the house of Joseph, even to Ephraim and to
Manasseh, saying, Thou art a great people, and hast great power: thou shalt not
have one lot only:
[18] But the mountain shall be thine; for it is a wood, and thou shalt cut it
down: and the outgoings of it shall be thine: for thou shalt drive out the
Canaanites, though they have iron chariots, and though they be strong.

Joshua 18
[1] And the whole congregation of the children of Israel assembled together at
Shiloh, and set up the tabernacle of the congregation there. And the land was
subdued before them.
[2] And there remained among the children of Israel seven tribes, which had not
yet received their inheritance. [3] And Joshua said unto the children of
Israel, How long are ye slack to go to possess the land, which the LORD God of
your fathers hath given you? [4] Give out from among you three men for each
tribe: and I will send them, and they shall rise, and go through the land, and
describe it according to the inheritance of them; and they shall come again to
me. [5] And they shall divide it into seven parts: Judah shall abide in their
coast on the south, and the house of Joseph shall abide in their coasts on the
north.
[6] Ye shall therefore describe the land into seven parts, and bring the
description hither to me, that I may cast lots for you here before the LORD our
God.
[7] But the Levites have no part among you; for the priesthood of the LORD is
their inheritance: and Gad, and Reuben, and half the tribe of Manasseh, have
received their inheritance beyond Jordan on the east, which Moses the servant
of the LORD gave them.
[8] And the men arose, and went away: and Joshua charged them that went to
describe the land, saying, Go and walk through the land, and describe it, and
come again to me, that I may here cast lots for you before the LORD in Shiloh.
[9] And the men went and passed through the land, and described it by cities
into seven parts in a book, and came again to Joshua to the host at Shiloh.
[10] And Joshua cast lots for them in Shiloh before the LORD: and there Joshua
divided the land unto the children of Israel according to their divisions.
[11] And the lot of the tribe of the children of Benjamin came up according to
their families: and the coast of their lot came forth between the children of
Judah and the children of Joseph. [12] And their border on the north side was
from Jordan; and the border went up to the side of Jericho on the north side,
and went up through the mountains westward; and the goings out thereof were at
the wilderness of Beth-aven.
[13] And the border went over from thence toward Luz, to the side of Luz, which
is Bethel, southward; and the border descended to Ataroth-adar, near the hill
that lieth on the south side of the nether Beth-horon. [14] And the border was
drawn thence, and compassed the corner of the sea southward, from the hill that
lieth before Beth-horon southward; and the goings out thereof were at
Kirjath-baal, which is Kirjath-jearim, a city of the children of Judah: this
was the west quarter. [15] And the south quarter was from the end of
Kirjath-jearim, and the border went out on the west, and went out to the well
of waters of Nephtoah: [16] And the border came down to the end of the mountain
that lieth before the valley of the son of Hinnom, and which is in the valley
of the giants on the north, and descended to the valley of Hinnom, to the side
of Jebusi on the south, and descended to En-rogel, [17] And was drawn from the
north, and went forth to En-shemesh, and went forth toward Geliloth, which is
over against the going up of Adummim, and descended to the stone of Bohan the
son of Reuben, [18] And passed along toward the side over against Arabah
northward, and went down unto Arabah:
[19] And the border passed along to the side of Beth-hoglah northward: and the
outgoings of the border were at the north bay of the salt sea at the south end
of Jordan: this was the south coast. [20] And Jordan was the border of it on
the east side. This was the inheritance of the children of Benjamin, by the
coasts thereof round about, according to their families.
[21] Now the cities of the tribe of the children of Benjamin according to their
families were Jericho, and Beth-hoglah, and the valley of Keziz, [22] And
Beth-arabah, and Zemaraim, and Bethel, [23] And Avim, and Parah, and Ophrah,
[24] And Chephar-haammonai, and Ophni, and Gaba; twelve cities with their
villages:
[25] Gibeon, and Ramah, and Beeroth, [26] And Mizpeh, and Chephirah, and Mozah,
[27] And Rekem, and Irpeel, and Taralah, [28] And Zelah, Eleph, and Jebusi,
which is Jerusalem, Gibeath, and Kirjath; fourteen cities with their villages.
This is the inheritance of the children of Benjamin according to their
families.
