Joshua 16Joshua 17Joshua 18Joshua 19Mark 2.1-22Joshua 16
1
And the limit of the land marked out for the children of Joseph went out from Jordan at Jericho, at the waters of Jericho on the east, in the waste land, going up from Jericho through the hill-country to Beth-el
2
And it goes out from Beth-el to Luz, and on as far as the limit of the Archites to Ataroth
3
And it goes down to the west to the limit of the Japhletites, to the limit of Beth-horon the lower, as far as Gezer ending at the sea.
4
And the children of Joseph, Manasseh and Ephraim, took their heritage.
5
And the limit of the land of the children of Ephraim by their families was marked out in this way: the limit of their heritage to the east was Ataroth-addar, to Beth-horon the higher
6
The line goes out to the west at Michmethath on the north then turning to the east to Taanath-shiloh, going past it on the east of Janoah
7
And from Janoah down to Ataroth, and to Naarah, and touching Jericho, it goes on to Jordan.
8
From Tappuah the line goes on to the west to the river of Kanah ending at the sea. This is the heritage of the children of Ephraim by their families
9
Together with the towns marked out for the children of Ephraim in the heritage of Manasseh, all the towns with their unwalled places.
10
And the Canaanites who were living in Gezer were not forced out but the Canaanites have been living among Ephraim, to this day, as servants, doing forced work.
Joshua 17
1
And this was the part marked out for the tribe of Manasseh, because he was the oldest son of Joseph. As for Machir, the oldest son of Manasseh, the father of Gilead, because he was a man of war he had Gilead and Bashan.
2
And as for the rest of the children of Manasseh, their heritage was given to them by 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 only daughters and these are the names of his daughters: Mahlah, and Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah.
4
And they came before Eleazar the priest, and Joshua, the son of Nun, and before the chiefs, saying, The Lord gave orders to Moses to give us a heritage among our brothers: so in agreement with the orders of the Lord he gave them a heritage among their father's brothers.
5
And ten parts were given to Manasseh, in addition to the land of Gilead and Bashan, which is on the other side of Jordan
6
Because the daughters of Manasseh had a heritage among his sons, and the land of Gilead was the property of the other sons of Manasseh.
7
And the limit of Manasseh's land was from Asher to Michmethath, which is before Shechem the line goes on to the right hand, to the people of En-tappuah.
8
The land of Tappuah was the property of Manasseh but Tappuah on the edge of Manasseh was the property of the children of Ephraim.
9
And the limit goes down to the stream Kanah, to the south of the stream: these towns were Ephraim's among the towns of Manasseh Manasseh's limit was on the north side of the stream, ending at the sea:
10
To the south it is Ephraim's, and to the north it is Manasseh's, and the sea is his limit and they are touching Asher on the north, and Issachar on the east.
11
In Issachar and Asher, Manasseh had Beth-shean and its daughter-towns, and Ibleam and its daughter-towns, and the people of Dor and its daughter-towns, and the people of En-dor and its daughter-towns, and the people of Taanach and its daughter-towns, and the people of Megiddo and its daughter-towns, that is, the three hills.
12
But the children of Manasseh were not able to make the people of those towns go out but the Canaanites would go on living in that land.
13
And when the children of Israel had become strong, they put the Canaanites to forced work, in place of driving them out.
14
Then the children of Joseph said to Joshua, Why have you given me only one part and one stretch of land for my heritage? For through the blessing given to me by the Lord up to now, I am a great people.
15
Then Joshua said to them, If you are such a great people, go up into the woodlands, clearing a place there for yourselves in the land of the Perizzites and the Rephaim, if the hill-country of Ephraim is not wide enough for you.
16
And the children of Joseph said, The hill-country is not enough for us: and all the Canaanites living in the valley have iron war-carriages, those in Beth-shean and its towns as well as those in the valley of Jezreel.
17
Then Joshua said to the children of Joseph, to Ephraim and Manasseh, You are a great people, and have great power: you are not to have one property only,
18
For the hill-country of Gilead will be yours...the woodland and cut down...its outskirts will be yours...get the Canaanites out, for they have iron war-carriages...strong.
Joshua 18
1
And all the meeting of the children of Israel came together at Shiloh and put up the Tent of meeting there: and the land was crushed before them.
2
But there were still seven tribes among the children of Israel who had not taken up their heritage.
3
Then Joshua said to the children of Israel, Why are you so slow to go in and take up your heritage in the land which the Lord, the God of your fathers, has given you?
4
Take from among you three men from every tribe and I will send them to go through the land and make a record of it for distribution as their heritage then let them come back to me.
5
And let them make division of it into seven parts: let Judah keep inside his limit on the south, and let the children of Joseph keep inside their limit on the north.
6
And you are to have the land marked out in seven parts, and come back to me with the record and I will make the distribution for you here by the decision of the Lord our God.
7
For the Levites have no part among you to be the Lord's priests is their heritage and Gad and Reuben and the half-tribe of Manasseh have had their heritage on the east side of Jordan, given to them by Moses, the servant of the Lord.
8
So the men got up and went and Joshua gave orders to those who went, to make a record of the land, saying, Go up and down through the land, and make a record of it and come back here to me, and I will make the distribution for you here by the decision of the Lord in Shiloh.
9
So the men went, travelling through the land, and made a record of it by towns in seven parts in a book, and came back to Joshua to the tent-circle at Shiloh.
10
And Joshua made the distribution for them in Shiloh by the decision of the Lord, marking out the land for the children of Israel by their divisions.
11
And the first heritage came out for the tribe of Benjamin by their families: and the limit of their heritage went between the children of Judah and the children of Joseph.
12
And their limit on the north was from the Jordan, and the line goes up to the side of Jericho on the north and through the hill-country to the west, ending at the waste land of Beth-aven.
13
And from there the line goes south to Luz, to the side of Luz (which is Beth-el), then down to Ataroth-addar, by the mountain to the south of Beth-horon the lower.
14
And the limit is marked as coming round to the south on the west side from the mountain which is south of Beth-horon, and ending at Kiriath-baal (which is Kiriath-jearim), a town of the children of Judah: this is the west part.
15
And the south part is from the farthest point of Kiriath-jearim, and the line goes out to the west to the fountain of the waters of Nephtoah:
16
And the line goes down to the farthest part of the mountain facing the valley of the son of Hinnom, which is on the north of the valley of Rephaim: from there it goes down to the valley of Hinnom, to the side of the Jebusite on the south as far as En-rogel
17
And it goes to En-shemesh and on to Geliloth, opposite the way up to Adummim, and it goes down to the stone of Bohan, the son of Reuben
18
And it goes on to the side facing the Arabah to the north, and down to the Arabah
19
And on to the north side of Beth-hoglah, ending at the north inlet of the Salt Sea at the south end of Jordan this is their limit on the south.
20
And the limit of the east part is the Jordan. This is the heritage of the children of Benjamin, marked out for their families by these limits on all sides.
21

9
The heritage of Simeon was taken out of Judah's stretch of land, for Judah's part was more than they had need of, so the heritage of the children of Simeon was inside their heritage.
10
And the third heritage came out for Zebulun by their families the limit of their heritage was as far as Sarid
11
And their limit goes up to the west to Maralah, stretching to Dabbesheth, and to the stream in front of Jokneam

47
(But the limit of the children of Dan was not wide enough for them so the children of Dan went up and made war on Leshem and took it, putting it to the sword without mercy, and they took it for their heritage and made a place for themselves there, giving it the name of Leshem-dan, after the name of their father, Dan.)
48
This is the heritage of the tribe of the children of Dan by their families, these towns with their unwalled places.
49
So the distribution of the land and its limits was complete and the children of Israel gave Joshua, the son of Nun, a heritage among them
50
By the orders of the Lord they gave him the town for which he made request, Timnath-serah in the hill-country of Ephraim: there, after building the town, he made his living-place.
51
These are the heritages which Eleazar the priest and Joshua, the son of Nun, and the heads of families of the tribes of the children of Israel gave out at Shiloh, by the decision of the Lord, at the door of the Tent of meeting. So the distribution of the land was complete.
Mark 2
1-22
1
And when he came into Capernaum again after some days, the news went about that he was in the house.
2
And a great number had come together, so that there was no longer room for them, no, not even about the door: and he gave them teaching.
3
And four men came to him with one on a bed who had no power of moving.
4
And when they were unable to get near him because of all the people, they got the roof uncovered where he was: and when it was broken up, they let down the bed on which the man was.
5
And Jesus, seeing their faith, said to him, Son, you have forgiveness for your sins.
6
But there were certain of the scribes seated there, and reasoning in their hearts,
7
Why does this man say such things? he has no respect for God: from whom does forgiveness come but from God only?
8
And Jesus, having knowledge in his spirit of their thoughts, said to them, Why are you reasoning about these things in your hearts?
9
Which is the simpler, to say to a man who is ill, You have forgiveness for your sins, or, Get up, take up your bed, and go?
10
But so that you may see that the Son of man has authority for the forgiveness of sins on earth, (he said to the man,)
11
I say to you, Get up, take up your bed, and go to your house.
12
And he got up, and straight away took up the bed and went out before them all, so that they were all full of wonder, and gave glory to God, saying, We have never seen anything like this.
13
And he went out again by the seaside and all the people came to him, and he gave them teaching.
14
And when he went by, he saw Levi, the son of Alphaeus, seated at the place where taxes were taken, and he said to him, Come with me. And he got up, and went with him.
15
And it came about that he was seated at meat in his house, and a number of tax-farmers and sinners were at table with Jesus and his disciples: for there were a great number of them, and they came after him.
16
And the scribes of the Pharisees, when they saw that he was taking food with the tax-farmers and sinners, said to his disciples, Why does he take food and drink with such men?
17
And Jesus, hearing it, said to them, Those who are well have no need of a medical man, but those who are ill: I have come not to get the upright but sinners.
18
And John's disciples and the Pharisees were taking no food: and they came and said to him, Why do John's disciples and the disciples of the Pharisees go without food, but your disciples do not?
19
And Jesus said to them, Will the friends of a newly-married man go without food while he is with them? as long as they have him with them they will not go without food.
20
But the days will come when the husband will be taken away from them, and then they will go without food.
21
No man puts a bit of new cloth on an old coat: or the new, by pulling away from the old, makes a worse hole.
22
And no man puts new wine into old wine-skins: or the skins will be burst by the wine, and the wine and the skins will be wasted: but new wine has to be put into new wine-skins.
