But the people of the tribe of Dan were unable to take control of the land that had been allotted to them. So they went [northeast] and fought against the people in Leshem [city]. They defeated and killed all the people who lived there. Then they began to live in Leshem, and changed the name of the city to Dan, the man from whom their tribe descended.

After the Israeli leaders divided the land among the tribes, they allotted some land to Joshua.

50 ‌ʻO hangē ko e folofola ʻa Sihova naʻa nau foaki kiate ia ʻae kolo naʻa ne tala, ko Timinate-Sela ʻi he moʻunga ko ʻIfalemi; pea naʻe langa ʻe ia ʻae kolo, pea nofo ai.

They allotted to him Timnath-Serah. Yahweh had said that he could have whatever city he wanted, and that was the city that he chose. It was in the hilly region which was allotted to the tribe of Ephraim. Joshua rebuilt the city and lived there.

51 Ko eni ʻae ngaahi tofiʻa, ʻaia naʻe vahe ʻe ʻEliesa ko e taulaʻeiki, mo Siosiua ko e foha ʻo Nuni, mo e ngaahi ʻeiki ʻoe kau mātuʻa ʻoe ngaahi faʻahinga ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ko e tofiʻa, ʻi he talotalo ʻi Sailo, ʻi he matapā ʻoe fale fehikitaki ʻoe kakai. Pea naʻa nau fakaʻosi hono vaheʻi ʻoe fonua.

Those were the areas that were allotted to the various tribes of Israel. Eleazar the Supreme Priest and Joshua and the leaders of each tribe divided up the land while they were all at Shiloh, by (casting lots/throwing marked stones) [to decide which area each tribe would receive]. They did that while Yahweh was watching, at the entrance of the Sacred Tent. In that way they completed dividing up the land.
