< Numbers 34 >

1 And Yahweh spake unto Moses, saying:
And the Lord spake vnto 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.
Commande the children of Israel, and say vnto them, When yee come into the land of Canaan, this is the land that shall fall vnto your inheritance: that is, the land of Canaan with the coastes thereof.
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 Southquarter shalbe from the wildernesse of Zin to the borders of Edom: so that your Southquarter shall be from the salt Sea coast Eastwarde:
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 shall compasse you from the South to Maaleh-akrabbim, and reach to Zin, and goe out from the South to Kadesh-barnea: thence it shall stretch to Hazar-addar, and go along 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 shall compasse from Azmon vnto the riuer of Egypt, and shall goe out to the Sea.
6 And, for a west boundary, —ye shall have the great sea, even a boundary, this, shall serve you as west boundary.
And your Westquarter shall bee the great Sea: euen that border shalbe your Westcoast.
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 bee your Northquarter: yee shall marke out your border from the great Sea vnto 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 ye shall point out till it come vnto Hamath, and the end of the coast shall be at 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 coast shall reach out to Ziphron, and goe out at Hazar-enan. this shalbe your Northquarter.
10 Then shall ye draw for yourselves a line, for an east boundary, —from Hazar-enan towards Shepham;
And ye shall marke out your Eastquarter 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 coast shall goe downe from Shepham to Riblah, and from the Eastside of Ain: and the same border shall descend and goe out at the side of the sea of Chinneereth 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.
Also that border shall goe downe to Iorden, and leaue at the salt Sea. this shalbe your land with the coastes thereof 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.
Then Moses commanded the children of Israel, saying, This is the lande which yee shall inherite by lot, which the Lord commanded to giue vnto nine tribes and halfe 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 children of Reuben, according to the housholdes of their fathers, and the tribe of the children of Gad, according to their fathers housholdes, and halfe the tribe of Manasseh, haue receiued their inheritance.
15 the two tribes, and the half tribe, have received their inheritance—on this side Jordan near Jericho, eastwards, towards sunrise.
Two tribes and an halfe tribe haue receiued their inheritance on this side of Iorden toward Iericho full East.
16 Then spake Yahweh unto Moses, saying:
Againe the Lord spake 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 which shall deuide ye land vnto you: Eleazar the Priest, and Ioshua the sonne of Nun.
18 Also, one prince from each tribe, shall ye take to receive the land, as an inheritance.
And ye shall take also a prince of euerie tribe to deuide the land.
19 These, therefore, are the names of the men, —For the tribe of Judah, Caleb son of Jephunneh;
The names also of the men are these: Of the tribe of Iudah, Caleb ye sonne of Iephunneh.
20 And, for the tribe of the sons of Simeon, Shemuel son of Ammihud:

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

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

24 And, for the tribe of the sons of Ephraim, a prince, —Kemuel, son of Shiphtan;
And of the tribe of the sonnes of Ephraim, the prince Kemuel, the sonne of Shiphtan.
25 And, for the tribe of the sons of Zebulun, a prince, —Elizaphan, son of Parnach;

26 And, for the tribe of the sons of Issachar, a prince, —Paltiel son of Azzan;
So of the tribe of the sonnes of Issachar, the prince Paltiel the sonne of Azzan.
27 And, for the tribe of the sons of Asher, a prince, —Ahihud son of Shelomi:

28 And, for the tribe of the sons of Naphtali, a prince, —Pedahel, son of Ammihud.
And of the tribe of the sonnes of Naphtali, the prince Pedahel, the sonne 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 they, whome the Lord commanded to deuide the inheritance vnto the children of Israel, in the land of Canaan.
