Numbers 34

1 And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,

The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,

2 '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 —

“Command the children of Israel, and tell them, ‘When you come into the land of Canaan (this is the land that shall fall to you for an inheritance, even the land of Canaan according to its borders),

3 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;

then your south quarter shall be from the wilderness of Zin along by the side of Edom, and your south border shall be from the end of the Salt Sea eastward.

4 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;

Your border shall turn about southward of the ascent of Akrabbim, and pass along to Zin; and it shall pass southward of Kadesh Barnea; and it shall go from there to Hazar Addar, and pass along to Azmon.

5 and the border hath turned round from Azmon to the brook of Egypt, and its outgoings have been at the sea.

The border shall turn about from Azmon to the brook of Egypt, and it shall end at the sea.

6 'As to the west border, even the great sea hath been to you a border; this is to you the west border.

“‘For the western border, you shall have the great sea and its border. This shall be your west border.

7 'And this is to you the north border: from the great sea ye mark out for yourselves mount Hor;

“‘This shall be your north border: from the great sea you shall mark out for yourselves Mount Hor.

8 from mount Hor ye mark out to go in to Hamath, and the outgoings of the border have been to Zedad;

From Mount Hor you shall mark out to the entrance of Hamath; and the border shall pass by Zedad.

9 and the border hath gone out to Ziphron, and its outgoings have been at Hazar-Enan; this is to you the north border.

Then the border shall go to Ziphron, and it shall end at Hazar Enan. This shall be your north border.

10 'And ye have marked out for yourselves for the border eastward, from Hazar-Enan to Shepham;

“‘You shall mark out your east border from Hazar Enan to Shepham.

11 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;

The border shall go down from Shepham to Riblah, on the east side of Ain. The border shall go down, and shall reach to the side of the sea of Chinnereth eastward.

12 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.'

The border shall go down to the Jordan, and end at the Salt Sea. This shall be your land according to its borders around it.’”

13 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;

Moses commanded the children of Israel, saying, “This is the land which you shall inherit by lot, which the LORD has commanded to give to the nine tribes, and to the half-tribe;

14 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;

for the tribe of the children of Reuben according to their fathers’ houses, the tribe of the children of Gad according to their fathers’ houses, and the half-tribe of Manasseh have received their inheritance.

15 the two tribes and the half of the tribe have received their inheritance beyond the Jordan, [near] Jericho, eastward, at the [sun] -rising.'

The two tribes and the half-tribe have received their inheritance beyond the Jordan at Jericho eastward, towards the sunrise.”

16 And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,

The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,

17 'These [are] the names of the men who give to you the inheritance of the land: Eleazar the priest, and Joshua son of Nun,

“These are the names of the men who shall divide the land to you for inheritance: Eleazar the priest, and Joshua the son of Nun.

18 and one prince — one prince — for a tribe ye do take to give the land by inheritance.

You shall take one prince of every tribe, to divide the land for inheritance.

19 'And these [are] the names of the men: of the tribe of Judah, Caleb son of Jephunneh;
