1 And the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,
And the Lord said to Moses,
2 Commande the children of Israel, and say vnto them, When yee come into the land of Canaan, this is the land that shall fall vnto your inheritance: that is, the land of Canaan with the coastes thereof.
Give orders to the children of Israel and say to them, When you come into the land of Canaan; (this is the land which is to be your heritage, the land of Canaan inside these limits, )
3 And your Southquarter shalbe from the wildernesse of Zin to the borders of Edom: so that your Southquarter shall be from the salt Sea coast Eastwarde:
Then your south quarter will be from the waste land of Zin by the side of Edom, and your limit on the south will be from the east end of the Salt Sea,
4 And the border shall compasse you from the South to Maaleh-akrabbim, and reach to Zin, and goe out from the South to Kadesh-barnea: thence it shall stretch to Hazar-addar, and go along to Azmon.
And round to the south of the slope of Akrabbim, and on to Zin: and its direction will be south of Kadesh-barnea, and it will go as far as Hazar-addar and on to Azmon:
5 And the border shall compasse from Azmon vnto the riuer of Egypt, and shall goe out to the Sea.
And from Azmon it will go round to the stream of Egypt as far as the sea.
6 And your Westquarter shall bee the great Sea: euen that border shalbe your Westcoast.
And for your limit on the west you will have the Great Sea and its edge: this will be your limit on the west.
7 And this shall bee your Northquarter: yee shall marke out your border from the great Sea vnto mount Hor.
And your limit on the north will be the line from the Great Sea to Mount Hor:
8 From mount Hor ye shall point out till it come vnto Hamath, and the end of the coast shall be at Zedad.
And from Mount Hor the line will go in the direction of Hamath; the farthest point of it will be at Zedad:
9 And the coast shall reach out to Ziphron, and goe out at Hazar-enan. this shalbe your Northquarter.
And the limit will go on to Ziphron, with its farthest point at Hazar-enan: this will be your limit on the north.
10 And ye shall marke out your Eastquarter from Hazar-enan to Shepham.
And on the east, your limit will be marked out from Hazar-enan to Shepham,
11 And the coast shall goe downe from Shepham to Riblah, and from the Eastside of Ain: and the same border shall descend and goe out at the side of the sea of Chinneereth Eastward.
Going down from Shepham to Riblah on the east side of Ain, and on as far as the east side of the sea of Chinnereth:
12 Also that border shall goe downe to Iorden, and leaue at the salt Sea. this shalbe your land with the coastes thereof round about.
And so down to Jordan, stretching to the Salt Sea: all the land inside these limits will be yours.
