Joshua 18:3-5

Amplified Bible

³ So Joshua asked them, “How long will you put off entering to take possession of the land which the Lord, the God of your fathers, has given you? ⁴ Provide for yourselves three men from each tribe so that I may send them, and that they may go through the land and write a description of it with regard to their [tribal] inheritance; then they shall return to me. ⁵ They shall divide it into seven parts; [the tribe of] Judah shall remain in its territory on the south, and the ^[a]house of Joseph shall remain in its territory on the north.
