So Yehoshua said to the children of Yisra'el, 'Till when are you going to fail to go in and possess the land which YHWH Elohim of your fathers has given you?
4.
'Appoint three men from each tribe, and let me send them out to go through the land and describe it according to their inheritance, and come back to me.

'And they shall divide it into seven portions - Yehudah stays within their border on the south, and the house of Yoseph stays within their border on the north -

So the men rose up and went. And Yehoshua commanded those who went to describe the land, saying, 'Go, walk through the land, and describe it, and come back to me, and let me cast lots for you here before YHWH in Shiloh.'
