New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

Cities Allotted to the Levites

21 Then the heads of the families of the Levites came to the priest Eleazar and to Joshua son of Nun and to the heads of the families of the tribes of the Israelites; ² they said to them at Shiloh in the land of Canaan, “The Lord commanded through Moses that we be given towns to live in, along with their pasture lands for our livestock.” ³ So by command of the Lord the Israelites gave to the Levites the following towns and pasture lands out of their inheritance.
