6 And next the lot went out to the sons of Gershon, so that they would receive, from the tribes of Issachar and Asher and Naphtali, and from the one half tribe of Manasseh at Bashan: the number of thirteen cities.
7 And to the sons of Merari, by their families, from the tribes of Reuben and Gad and Zebulun, there went twelve cities.
8 And so the sons of Israel gave cities and their suburbs to the Levites, just as the Lord instructed by the hand of Moses, distributing to each by lot.
9 From the tribes of the sons of Judah and Simeon, Joshua gave cities, whose names are these:
10 to the sons of Aaron, of the families of Kohath of the stock of Levi, (for the first lot went out for them,)
11 the city of Arba, the father of Anak, which is called Hebron, on the mountain of Judah, and its surrounding suburbs.
12 Yet truly, the fields and its villages he had given to Caleb, the son of Jephunneh, as a possession.
