34:1 Then the LORD spoke to Moses, saying, |
34:2 "Command the sons of Israel and say to them, `When you enter the land of Canaan, this is the land that shall fall to you as an inheritance, {even the} land of Canaan according to its borders. |
34:3 `Your southern sector shall extend from the wilderness of Zin along the side of Edom, and your southern border shall extend from the end of the Salt Sea eastward. |
34:4 `Then your border shall turn {direction} from the south to the ascent of Akrabbim and continue to Zin, and its termination shall be to the south of Kadesh-barnea; and it shall reach Hazaraddar and continue to Azmon. |
34:5 `The border shall turn {direction} from Azmon to the brook of Egypt, and its termination shall be at the sea. |
34:6 `As for the western border, you shall have the Great Sea, that is, {its} coastline; this shall be your west border. |
34:7 `And this shall be your north border: you shall draw your {border} line from the Great Sea to Mount Hor. |
34:8 `You shall draw a line from Mount Hor to the Lebo-hamath, and the termination of the border shall be at Zedad; |
34:9 and the border shall proceed to Ziphron, and its termination shall be at Hazar-enan. This shall be your north border. |
34:10 `For your eastern border you shall also draw a line from Hazar-enan to Shepham, |
34:11 and the border shall go down from Shepham to Riblah on the east side of Ain; and the border shall go down and reach to the slope on the east side of the Sea of Chinnereth. |
34:12 `And the border shall go down to the Jordan and its termination shall be at the Salt Sea. This shall be your land according to its borders all around.'" |
34:13 So Moses commanded the sons of Israel, saying, "This is the land that you are to apportion by lot among you as a possession, which the LORD has commanded to give to the nine and a half tribes. |
34:14 "For the tribe of the sons of Reuben have received {theirs} according to their fathers' households, and the tribe of the sons of Gad according to their fathers' households, and the half-tribe of Manasseh have received their possession. |
34:15 "The two and a half tribes have received their possession across the Jordan opposite Jericho, eastward toward the sunrising." |
34:16 Then the LORD spoke to Moses, saying, |
34:17 "These are the names of the men who shall apportion the land to you for inheritance: Eleazar the priest and Joshua the son of Nun. |
34:18 "You shall take one leader of every tribe to apportion the land for inheritance. |
34:19 "These are the names of the men: of the tribe of Judah, Caleb the son of Jephunneh. |
34:20 "Of the tribe of the sons of Simeon, Samuel the son of Ammihud. |
34:21 "Of the tribe of Benjamin, Elidad the son of Chislon. |
34:22 "Of the tribe of the sons of Dan a leader, Bukki the son of Jogli. |
34:23 "Of the sons of Joseph: of the tribe of the sons of Manasseh a leader, Hanniel the son of Ephod. |
34:24 "Of the tribe of the sons of Ephraim a leader, Kemuel the son of Shiphtan. |
34:25 "Of the tribe of the sons of Zebulun a leader, Elizaphan the son of Parnach. |
34:26 "Of the tribe of the sons of Issachar a leader, Paltiel the son of Azzan. |
34:27 "Of the tribe of the sons of Asher a leader, Ahihud the son of Shelomi. |
34:28 "Of the tribe of the sons of Naphtali a leader, Pedahel the son of Ammihud." |
34:29 These are those whom the LORD commanded to apportion the inheritance to the sons of Israel in the land of Canaan. |
