The whole congregation of the children of Israel assembled themselves together at Shiloh, and set up the Tent of Meeting there. The land was subdued before them.

Joshua said to the children of Israel, "How long will you neglect to go in to possess the land, which the LORD, the God of your fathers, has given you?

Appoint for you three men of each tribe. I will send them, and they shall arise, walk through the land, and describe it according to their inheritance; and they shall come to me.

You shall survey the land into seven parts, and bring the description here to me; and I will cast lots for you here before the LORD our God.

For the Levites have no portion among you; for the office of cohen of the LORD is their inheritance. Gad, Reuben, and the half-tribe of Manasseh have received their inheritance beyond the Jordan eastward, which Moses the servant of the LORD gave them."
8 Amaho gam gakholtoh dingleh gajihdoh dinga akipatdoh uchun Joshua’n hitin thupeh ananeijin ahi, “Cheuvinlang agamchu gakholtoh unlang kichihtah in hinjihdoh un. Chujouteng kakomma hungun, huting keiman Shiloh munna Pakai angsung’a vangsan na kaneiding chuteng aphung dungjui a agam chu kahoppehdiu nahiuve” ati.
The men arose and went. Joshua commanded those who went to survey the land, saying, "Go walk through the land, survey it, and come again to me. I will cast lots for you here before the LORD in Shiloh."
