The descendants of Simeon: Nemuel, Jamin, Jarib, Zerah and Shaul;Shallum was Shaul’s son, Mibsam his son and Mishma his son.The descendants of Mishma: Hammuel his son, Zakkur his son and Shimei his son.Shimei had sixteen sons and six daughters, but his brothers did not have many children; so their entire clan did not become as numerous as the people of Judah.They lived in Beersheba, Moladah, Hazar Shual,Bilhah, Ezem, Tolad,Bethuel, Hormah, Ziklag,Beth Markaboth, Hazar Susim, Beth Biri and Shaaraim. These were their towns until the reign of David. (niv)

The second lot came out for the tribe of Simeon according to its clans. Their inheritance lay within the territory of Judah.It included: Beersheba( or Sheba), Moladah,Hazar Shual, Balah, Ezem,Eltolad, Bethul, Hormah,Ziklag, Beth Markaboth, Hazar Susah,Beth Lebaoth and Sharuhen— thirteen towns and their villages;Ain, Rimmon, Ether and Ashan— four towns and their villages—and all the villages around these towns as far as Baalath Beer( Ramah in the Negev). This was the inheritance of the tribe of the Simeonites, according to its clans.The inheritance of the Simeonites was taken from the share of Judah, because Judah’s portion was more than they needed. So the Simeonites received their inheritance within the territory of Judah. (niv)

2 Samuel 13 22-2 Samuel 13 28
And Absalom never said a word to Amnon, either good or bad; he hated Amnon because he had disgraced his sister Tamar.Two years later, when Absalom’s sheepshearers were at Baal Hazor near the border of Ephraim, he invited all the king’s sons to come there.Absalom went to the king and said,“ Your servant has had shearers come. Will the king and his attendants please join me?”“ No, my son,” the king replied.“ All of us should not go; we would only be a burden to you.” Although Absalom urged him, he still refused to go but gave him his blessing.Then Absalom said,“ If not, please let my brother Amnon come with us.” The king asked him,“ Why should he go with you?”But Absalom urged him, so he sent with him Amnon and the rest of the king’s sons.Absalom ordered his men,“ Listen! When Amnon is in high spirits from drinking wine and I say to you,‘ Strike Amnon down,’ then kill him. Don’t be afraid. Haven’t I given you this order? Be strong and brave.” (niv)

Josué 21:1-45
Now the family heads of the Levites approached Eleazar the priest, Joshua son of Nun, and the heads of the other tribal families of Israelat Shiloh in Canaan and said to them,“ The Lord commanded through Moses that you give us towns to live in, with pasturelands for our livestock.”So, as the Lord had commanded, the Israelites gave the Levites the following towns and pasturelands out of their own inheritance:The first lot came out for the Kohathites, according to their clans. The Levites who were descendants of Aaron the priest were allotted thirteen towns from the tribes of Judah, Simeon and Benjamin.The rest of Kohath’s descendants were allotted ten towns from the clans of the tribes of Ephraim, Dan and half of Manasseh.The descendants of Gershon were allotted thirteen towns from the clans of the tribes of Issachar, Asher, Naphtali and the half-tribe of Manasseh in Bashan.The descendants of Merari, according to their clans, received twelve towns from the tribes of Reuben, Gad and Zebulun.So the Israelites allotted to the Levites these towns and their pasturelands, as the Lord had commanded through Moses.From the tribes of Judah and Simeon they allotted the following towns by name( these towns were assigned to the descendants of Aaron who were from the Kohathite clans of the Levites, because the first lot fell to them):They gave them Kiriath Arba( that is, Hebron), with its surrounding pastureland, in the hill country of Judah.( Arba was the forefather of Anak.)But the fields and villages around the city they had given to Caleb son of Jephunneh as his possession.So to the descendants of Aaron the priest they gave Hebron( a city of refuge for one accused of murder), Libnah,Jattir, Eshtemoa,Holon, Debir,Ain, Juttah and Beth Shemesh, together with their pasturelands— nine towns from these two tribes.And from the tribe of Benjamin they gave them Gibeon, Geba,Anathoth and Almon, together with their pasturelands— four towns.The total number of towns for the priests, the descendants of Aaron, came to thirteen, together with their pasturelands.The rest of the Kohathite clans of the Levites were allotted towns from the tribe of Ephraim:In the hill country of Ephraim they were given Shechem( a city of refuge for one accused of murder) and Gezer,Kibzaim and Beth Horon, together with their pasturelands— four towns.Also from the tribe of Dan they received Eltekeh, Gibbethon,Aijalon and Gath Rimmon, together with their pasturelands— four towns.From half the tribe of Manasseh they received Taanach and Gath Rimmon, together with their pasturelands— two towns.All these ten towns and their pasturelands were given to the rest of the Kohathite clans.The Levite clans of the Gershonites were given: from the half- tribe of Manasseh, Golan in Bashan( a city of refuge for one accused of murder) and Be Eshterah, together with their pasturelands— two towns;from the tribe of Issachar, Kishion, Daberath,Jarmuth and En Gannim, together with their pasturelands— four towns;from the tribe of Asher, Mishal, Abdon,Helkath and Rehob, together with their pasturelands— four towns;from the tribe of Naphtali, Kedesh in Galilee( a city of refuge for one accused of murder), Hammoth Dor and Kartan, together with their pasturelands— three towns.The total number of towns of the Gershonite clans came to thirteen, together with their pasturelands.The Merarite clans( the rest of the Levites) were given: from the tribe of Zebulun, Jokneam, Kartah,Dimnah and Nahalal, together with their pasturelands— four towns;from the tribe of Reuben, Bezer, Jahaz,Kedemoth and Mephaath, together with their pasturelands— four towns;from the tribe of Gad, Ramoth in Gilead( a city of refuge for one accused of murder), Mahanaim,Heshbon and Jazer, together with their pasturelands— four towns in all.The total number of towns allotted to the Merarite clans, who were the rest of the Levites, came to twelve.The towns of the Levites in the territory held by the Israelites were forty- eight in all, together with their pasturelands.Each of these towns had pasturelands surrounding it; this was true for all these towns.So the Lord gave Israel all the land he had sworn to give their ancestors, and they took possession of it and settled there.The Lord gave them rest on every side, just as he had sworn to their ancestors. Not one of their enemies withstood them; the Lord gave all their enemies into their hands.Not one of all the Lord’s good promises to Israel failed; every one was fulfilled. (niv)
