“See, I have divided to you by lot these nations that remain, to be an inheritance for your tribes, from the Yardĕ
Saying, “To you I give the land of Kenaʽ
And drove out nations before them, And allotted them a measured inheritance, And made the tribes of Yisra’ĕ
“Little by little I shall drive them out from before you, until you have increased, and you inherit the land.
“I have cut off nations, their corner towers are in ruins. I have made their streets deserted, with no one passing by. Their cities are destroyed, without man, without inhabitant.
“When יהוה your Elohim does cut off from before you the nations which you go to dispossess, and you dispossess them and dwell in their land,
“This is the land that remains: all the districts of the Philistines and all the Geshurites,
And Yehoshua cast lots for them in Shiloh before יהוה, and there Yehoshua divided the land to the children of Yisra’ĕ
I also shall no longer drive out before them any of the nations which Yehoshua left when he died,
