< Numbers 34 >
1 And Yahweh spake unto Moses, saying:
And Jehovah speaketh unto 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 thou hast said unto them, When ye are coming in unto the land of Canaan — this [is] the land which falleth 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 hath the south quarter been to you from the wilderness of Zin, by the sides of Edom, yea, the south border hath 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 hath turned round to you from the south to the ascent of Akrabbim, and hath passed on to Zin, and its outgoings have been from the south to Kadesh-Barnea, and it hath gone out at Hazar-Addar, and hath 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 hath turned round 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 to the west border, even the great sea hath been to you a border; this is to you the west border.
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 to you the north border: from the great sea ye 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 ye mark out to go in 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 hath gone out to Ziphron, and its outgoings have been at Hazar-Enan; this is to you the north border.
10 Then shall ye draw for yourselves a line, for an east boundary, —from Hazar-enan towards Shepham;
'And ye 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 hath gone down from Shepham to Riblah, on the east of Ain, and the border hath gone down, and hath smitten 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 hath gone down to the Jordan, and its outgoings have been at the Salt Sea; this is for you the land by 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 commandeth the sons of Israel, saying, 'This [is] the land which ye inherit by lot, which Jehovah hath 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 have received, by the house of their fathers; and the tribe of the children of Gad, by the house of their fathers; and 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 Jehovah speaketh unto 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 to you the inheritance of the land: 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 — one prince — for a tribe ye do take 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 of the tribe of the sons of Dan, the 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;
of the sons of Joseph, of the tribe of the sons of Manasseh, the 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 sons of Ephraim, the prince Kemuel son of Shiphtan;
25 And, for the tribe of the sons of Zebulun, a prince, —Elizaphan, son of Parnach;
and of the tribe of the sons of Zebulun, the prince Elizaphan son of Parnach;
26 And, for the tribe of the sons of Issachar, a prince, —Paltiel son of Azzan;
and of the tribe of the sons of Issachar, the prince Paltiel son of Azzan;
27 And, for the tribe of the sons of Asher, a prince, —Ahihud son of Shelomi:
and of the tribe of the sons of Asher, the 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 sons of Naphtali, the prince 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 Jehovah hath commanded to give the sons of Israel inheritance in the land of Canaan.
