40 All these were the cities of the descendants of Merarite according to their families, the remaining families of the Levites; their allotment was twelve cities.
41 All the cities of the Levites among the property of the Israelites were forty-eight cities and their pasturelands.
42 Each of these cities had pasturelands surrounding them; so it was for all of these cities.
43 And Yahweh gave to Israel all the land that he swore to give to their ancestors, and they took possession of it and settled in it.
44 Yahweh gave them rest on every side, according to all that he had sworn to their ancestors, and nobody from all their enemies withstood them, for Yahweh had given all their enemies into their hand.
45 And nothing failed from all the good things that Yahweh promised to the house of Israel; everything came to pass.
