Numbers 34

1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,

And the Lord said to Moses,

2 Charge the children of Israel, and you shall say to them, You are entering into the land of Chanaan: it shall be to you for an inheritance, the land of Chanaan with its boundaries.

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 southern side shall be from the wilderness of Sin to the border of Edom, and your border southward shall extend on the side of the salt sea eastward.

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 your border shall go round you from the south to the ascent of Acrabin, and shall proceed by Ennac, and the going forth of it shall be southward to Cades Barne, and it shall go forth to the village of Arad, and shall proceed by Asemona.

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 compass from Asemona to the river of Egypt, and the sea shall be the termination.

And from Azmon it will go round to the stream of Egypt as far as the sea.

6 And you shall have your border on the west, the great sea shall be the boundary: this shall be to you the border on the west.

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 be your northern border; from the great sea you shall measure to yourselves, by the side of the mountain.

And your limit on the north will be the line from the Great Sea to Mount Hor:

8 And you shall measure to yourselves the mountain from mount [Hor] at the entering in to Emath, and the termination of it shall be the coasts of Saradac.

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 border shall go out to Dephrona, and its termination shall be at Arsenain; this shall be your border from the north.

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 you shall measure to yourselves the eastern border from Arsenain to Sepphamar.

And on the east, your limit will be marked out from Hazar-enan to Shepham,

11 And the border shall go down from Sepphamar to Bela eastward to the fountains, and the border shall go down from Bela behind the sea Chenereth 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 And the border shall go down to Jordan, and the termination shall be the salt sea; this shall be your land and its borders round about.

And so down to Jordan, stretching to the Salt Sea: all the land inside these limits will be yours.

13 And Moses charged the children of Israel, saying, This [is] the land which you shall inherit by lot, even as the Lord commanded us to give it to the nine tribes and the half-tribe of Manasse.

And Moses gave orders to the children of Israel saying, This is the land which is to be your heritage, by the decision of the Lord, which by the Lord's order is to be given to the nine tribes and the half-tribe:

14 For the tribe of the children of Ruben, and the tribe of the children of Gad have received [their inheritance] according to their families; and the half-tribe of Manasse have received their inheritances.

For the tribe of the children of Reuben, by their fathers' families, and the tribe of the children of Gad, by their fathers' families, and the half-tribe of Manasseh, have been given their heritage:

15 Two tribes and half a tribe have received their inheritance beyond Jordan by Jericho from the south eastwards.

The two tribes and the half-tribe have been given their heritage on the other side of Jordan at Jericho, on the east looking to the dawn.

16 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,

And the Lord said to Moses,

17 These [are] the names of the men who shall divide the land to you for an inheritance; Eleazar the priest and Joshua the [son] of Naue.

These are the names of the men who are to make the distribution of the land among you: Eleazar the priest and Joshua, the son of Nun.

18 And you shall take one ruler from [each] tribe to divide the land to you by lot.

And you are to take one chief from every tribe to make the distribution of the land.

19 And these [are] the names of the men; of the tribe of Juda Chaleb the son of Jephonne.

And these are the names of the men: of the tribe of Judah, Caleb, the son of Jephunneh.

20 Of the tribe of Symeon, Salamiel the son of Semiud.

And of the tribe of the children of Simeon, Shemuel, the son of Ammihud.

21 Of the tribe of Benjamin, Eldad the son of Chaslon.

Of the tribe of Benjamin, Elidad, the son of Chislon.

22 Of the tribe of Dan the prince [was] Bacchir the son of Egli.

And of the tribe of the children of Dan, a chief, Bukki, the son of Jogli.

23 Of the sons of Joseph of the tribe of the sons of Manasse, the prince was Aniel the son of Suphi.

Of the children of Joseph: of the tribe of the children of Manasseh, a chief, Hanniel, the son of Ephod:

24 Of the tribe of the sons of Ephraim, the prince was Camuel the son of Sabathan.

And of the tribe of the children of Ephraim, a chief, Kemuel, the son of Shiphtan.

25 Of the tribe of Zabulon, the prince was Elisaphan the son of Pharnac.

And of the tribe of the children of Zebulun, a chief, Elizaphan, the son of Parnach.

26 Of the tribe of the sons of Issachar, the prince was Phaltiel the son of Oza.

And of the tribe of the children of Issachar, a chief, Paltiel, the son of Azzan.

27 Of the tribe of the children of Aser, the prince was Achior the son of Selemi.

And of the tribe of the children of Asher, a chief, Ahihud, the son of Shelomi.

28 Of the tribe of Nephthali, the prince was Phadael the son of Jamiud.

And of the tribe of the children of Naphtali, a chief, Pedahel, the son of Ammihud.

29 These did the Lord command to distribute [the inheritances] to the children of Israel in the land of Chanaan.

These are they to whom the Lord gave orders to make the distribution of the heritage among the children of Israel in the land of Canaan.
