Numbers 34

1 And the Lord spoke unto Moses, saying,

Yahweh spoke to Moses and said,

2 Command the children of Israel, and say unto them, when ye come into the land of Canaan, shall this be the land that shall fall unto you for an inheritance: The land of Canaan according to its boundaries.

“Command the people of Israel and say to them, 'When you enter the land of Canaan, the land that will belong to you, the land of Canaan and its borders,

3 And the southern side shall be unto you from the wilderness of Zin along by the boundary of Edom, and your southern border shall commence at the outmost edge of the Salt Sea on its east side.

your southern border will extend from the wilderness of Zin along the border of Edom. The eastern end of the southern border will be on a line that ends at the southern end of the Salt Sea.

4 And the border shall turn for you from the south of the ascent of 'Akrabbim, and pass on to Zin; and its terminating points shall be to the south of Kadesh-barnea', and shall go on to Chazar-addar, and pass on to Azmon;

Your border will turn south from the hill of Akrabbim and pass along through the wilderness of Zin. From there, it will run south of Kadesh Barnea and continue to Hazar Addar and further to Azmon.

5 And the border shall turn from 'Azmon unto the river of Egypt, and its terminating points shall be at the sea.

From there, the border will turn from Azmon toward the brook of Egypt and follow it to the sea.

6 And as the western border, shall ye have the Great Sea for a border: this shall be your western border.

The western border will be the coastline of the Great Sea. This will be your western border.

7 And this shall be unto you the northern border: from the Great Sea shall ye mark out for you [the boundary to] mount Hor;

Your northern border will extend along a line that you must mark out from the Great Sea to Mount Hor,

8 From mount Hor shall ye mark out [the boundary] unto the entrance of Chamath; and the terminations of the border shall be toward Zedad;

then from Mount Hor to Lebo Hamath, then on to Zedad.

9 And the border shall go on to Ziphron, and its terminating points shall be at Chazar'-enan: this shall be unto you the northern border.

Then the border will continue to Ziphron and end at Hazar Enan. This will be your northern border.

10 And ye shall turn yourselves to the eastern border, from Chazar-'enan to Shepham;

Then you must mark out your eastern border from Hazar Enan south to Shepham.

11 And the boundary shall go down from Shepham to Riblah, to the eastward of 'Ayin; and the boundary shall descend, and shall touch upon the coast of the sea of Kinnereth, eastward;

Then the eastern border will go down from Shepham to Riblah, on the east side of Ain. The border will continue along the east side of the Sea of Kinnereth.

12 And the border shall go down to the Jordan, and its terminating points shall be at the Salt Sea: this shall be your land after its boundaries round about.

Then the border will continue south along the Jordan River to the Salt Sea and continue down the eastern border of the Salt Sea. This will be your land, following its borders all around.'”

13 And Moses commanded the children of Israel, saying, This is the land which ye shall divide among yourselves by lot, which the Lord hath commanded to give unto the nine tribes, and to the half tribe.

Then Moses commanded the people of Israel and said, “This is the land that you will receive by lot, which Yahweh has commanded to give to the nine tribes and to the half tribe.

14 For the tribe of the children of Reuben according to their family divisions, and the tribe of the children of Gad according to their family divisions, have received, —and the half of the tribe of Menasseh have received their inheritance;

The tribe of the descendants of Reuben, following the assignment of property to their ancestor's tribe, and the tribe of the descendants of Gad, following the assignment of property to their ancestor's tribe, and the half tribe of Manasseh have all received their land.

15 The two tribes and the half tribe have received their inheritance on this side of the Jordan opposite Jericho eastward, toward the rising of the sun.

The two tribes and the half tribe have received their share of land beyond the Jordan at Jericho eastward, toward the sunrise.”

16 And the Lord spoke unto Moses, saying,

Yahweh spoke to Moses and said,

17 These are the names of the men who shall parcel out unto you the land: Elazar the priest, and Joshua the son of Nun.

“These are the names of the men who will divide the land for your inheritance: Eleazar the priest and Joshua son of Nun.

18 And one prince each from every tribe shall ye take to parcel out the land.

You must choose one leader from every tribe to divide the land for their clans.
