Numbers 34

1 And Yahweh spake unto Moses, saying:

And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,

2 Command the sons of Israel, and thou shalt say unto them, When, ye, are coming into the land of Canaan, this is the land which shall fall unto you, as an inheritance, even the land of Canaan, by the boundaries thereof.

“Command the sons of Israel, and you have said to them: When you are coming into the land of Canaan—this [is] the land which falls to you by inheritance, the land of Canaan, by its borders—

3 Ye shall therefore have a south corner, from the desert of Zin, on the side of Edom, —so shall ye have a south boundary, from the end of the salt sea, eastward:

then the south quarter has been to you from the wilderness of Zin, by the sides of Edom, indeed, the south border has been to you from the extremity of the Salt Sea eastward;

4 and the boundary shall go round for you from the south towards the cliffs of Akrabbim, then cross over towards Zin, and the extension thereof shall be from the south to Kadesh-barnea, then shall it reach out to Hazar-addar, and cross over towards Azmon;

and the border has turned around to you from the south to the ascent of Akrabbim, and has passed on to Zin, and its outgoings have been from the south to Kadesh-Barnea, and it has gone out at Hazar-Addar, and has passed on to Azmon;

5 then shall the boundary turn round from Azmon towards the ravine of Egypt, —and the extension thereof shall be towards the sea.

and the border has turned around from Azmon to the Brook of Egypt, and its outgoings have been at the sea.

6 And, for a west boundary, —ye shall have the great sea, even a boundary, this, shall serve you as west boundary.

As for the west border, even the Great Sea has been a border to you; this is the west border to you.

7 And, this, shall serve you as a north boundary, —From the great sea, ye shall draw a line for you to Mount Hor:

And this is the north border to you: from the Great Sea you mark out for yourselves Mount Hor;

8 From Mount Hor, ye shall draw a line to the entering in of Hamath, —and the extension of the boundary shall be towards Zedad:

from Mount Hor you mark out to go to Hamath, and the outgoings of the border have been to Zedad;

9 then shall the boundary reach out towards Ziphron, and the extension thereof, be to Hazar-enan. This, shall serve you as a north, boundary.

and the border has gone out to Ziphron, and its outgoings have been at Hazar-Enan; this is the north border to you.

10 Then shall ye draw for yourselves a line, for an east boundary, —from Hazar-enan towards Shepham;

And you have marked out for yourselves for the border eastward, from Hazar-Enan to Shepham;

11 and the boundary shall go down from Shepham towards Riblah, on the east of Ain—then shall the boundary go down and strike on the side of the Sea of Chinnereth, eastward:

and the border has gone down from Shepham to Riblah, on the east of Ain, and the border has gone down, and has struck against the shoulder of the Sea of Chinnereth eastward;

12 then shall the boundary go down towards the Jordan, and the extension thereof be to the salt sea. This shall be your land by the boundaries thereof round about.

and the border has gone down to the Jordan, and its outgoings have been at the Salt Sea; this is the land for you by its borders all around.”

13 And Moses commanded the sons of Israel saying, —This, is the land, which ye shall inherit by lot, which Yahweh had commanded to be given to the nine tribes and the half tribe.

And Moses commands the sons of Israel, saying, “This [is] the land which you inherit by lot, which YHWH has commanded to give to the nine tribes and the half of the tribe;

14 For the tribe of the sons of the Reubenites by their ancestral house, and the tribe of the sons of Gad, by their ancestral house, have received, and, the half tribe of Manasseh have received, their inheritance:

for the tribe of the sons of Reuben, by the house of their fathers, and the tribe of the children of Gad, by the house of their fathers, have received [their inheritance]; and [those of] the half of the tribe of Manasseh have received their inheritance;

15 the two tribes, and the half tribe, have received their inheritance—on this side Jordan near Jericho, eastwards, towards sunrise.

the two tribes and the half of the tribe have received their inheritance beyond the Jordan, [near] Jericho, eastward, at the [sun]-rising.”

16 Then spake Yahweh unto Moses, saying:

And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,

17 These, are the names of the men who shall receive for you the land, as an inheritance, Eleazar, the priest, and Joshua, son of Nun.

“These [are] the names of the men who give the inheritance of the land to you: Eleazar the priest and Joshua son of Nun.

18 Also, one prince from each tribe, shall ye take to receive the land, as an inheritance.

And one prince—you take one prince from a tribe to give the land by inheritance.

19 These, therefore, are the names of the men, —For the tribe of Judah, Caleb son of Jephunneh;

And these [are] the names of the men: of the tribe of Judah, Caleb son of Jephunneh;

20 And, for the tribe of the sons of Simeon, Shemuel son of Ammihud:

and of the tribe of the sons of Simeon, Shemuel son of Aminihud;

21 For the tribe of Benjamin, Elidad son of Chislon;

of the tribe of Benjamin, Elidad son of Chislon;

22 And, for the tribe of the sons of Dan, a prince—Bukki, son of Jogli:

and a prince of the tribe of the sons of Dan, Bukki son of Jogli;

23 For the sons of Joseph, For the tribe of the sons of Manasseh, a prince, —Hanniel son of Ephod;

of the sons of Joseph, a prince of the tribe of the sons of Manasseh, Hanniel son of Ephod;

24 And, for the tribe of the sons of Ephraim, a prince, —Kemuel, son of Shiphtan;

and a prince of the tribe of the sons of Ephraim, Kemuel son of Shiphtan;

25 And, for the tribe of the sons of Zebulun, a prince, —Elizaphan, son of Parnach;

and a prince of the tribe of the sons of Zebulun, Elizaphan son of Parnach;

26 And, for the tribe of the sons of Issachar, a prince, —Paltiel son of Azzan;

and a prince of the tribe of the sons of Issachar, Paltiel son of Azzan;

27 And, for the tribe of the sons of Asher, a prince, —Ahihud son of Shelomi:

and a prince of the tribe of the sons of Asher, Ahihud son of Shelomi;

28 And, for the tribe of the sons of Naphtali, a prince, —Pedahel, son of Ammihud.

and a prince of the tribe of the sons of Naphtali, Pedahel son of Ammihud.”

29 These, are they whom Yahweh hath commanded to receive for the sons of Israel their inheritance, in the land of Canaan.

These [are] those whom YHWH has commanded to give the sons of Israel inheritance in the land of Canaan.
