Numbers 34

1 And Yahweh spake unto Moses, saying:

And the Lord spoke 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.

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

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:

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.

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 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.

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

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

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

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

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:

And ye 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.

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

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

And ye shall measure to yourselves the eastern border from Arsenain to Sepphamar.

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

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

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 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.

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

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

16 Then spake Yahweh unto Moses, saying:

And the Lord spoke 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 shall divide the land to you for an inheritance; Eleazar the priest and Joshua the [son] of Naue.

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

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

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 Juda Chaleb the son of Jephonne.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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