4 The lot came out for the Kohathite clans: The Levites who were the descendants of the priest Aaron received thirteen cities by lot from the tribes of Judah, Simeon, and Benjamin. 5 The remaining descendants of Kohath received ten cities by lot from the clans of the tribes of Ephraim, Dan, and half the tribe of Manasseh. 6 Gershon’s descendants received thirteen cities by lot from the clans of the tribes of Issachar, Asher, Naphtali, and half the tribe of Manasseh in Bashan. 7 Merari’s descendants received twelve cities for their clans from the tribes of Reuben, Gad, and Zebulun. 8 The Israelites gave these cities with their pasturelands around them to the Levites by lot, as the LORD had commanded through Moses.
