1 locutus est Dominus ad Mosen
YHWH spoke to Moses, saying,
2 praecipe filiis Israhel et dices ad eos cum ingressi fueritis terram Chanaan et in possessionem vobis sorte ceciderit his finibus terminabitur
"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 pars meridiana incipiet a solitudine Sin quae est iuxta Edom et habebit terminos contra orientem mare Salsissimum
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 qui circumibunt australem plagam per ascensum Scorpionis ita ut transeant Senna et perveniant in meridiem usque ad Cadesbarne unde egredientur confinia ad villam nomine Addar et tendent usque Asemona
and your border shall turn about southward of the ascent of Akrabbim, and pass along to Zin; and the goings out of it shall be southward of Kadesh Barnea; and it shall go forth to Hazar Addar, and pass along to Azmon;
5 ibitque per gyrum terminus ab Asemona usque ad torrentem Aegypti et maris Magni litore finietur
and the border shall turn about from Azmon to the Wadi of Egypt, and the goings out of it shall be at the sea.
6 plaga autem occidentalis a mari Magno incipiet et ipso fine cludetur
"'For the western border, the Great Sea shall be a border to you; this shall be your west border.
7 porro ad septentrionalem plagam a mari Magno termini incipient pervenientes usque ad montem Altissimum
"'This shall be your north border: from the Great Sea you shall mark out for you Mount Hor;
8 a quo venies in Emath usque ad terminos Sedada

9 ibuntque confinia usque Zephrona et villam Henan hii erunt termini in parte aquilonis
and the border shall go forth to Ziphron, and the goings out of it shall be at Hazar Enan: this shall be your north border.
10 inde metabuntur fines contra orientalem plagam de villa Henan usque Sephama
"'You shall mark out your east border from Hazar Enan to Shepham;
11 et de Sephama descendent termini in Rebla contra fontem inde pervenient contra orientem ad mare Chenereth
and the border shall go down from Shepham to Riblah, on the east side of Ain; and the border shall go down, and shall reach to the side of the sea of Kinnereth eastward;
12 et tendent usque Iordanem et ad ultimum Salsissimo cludentur mari hanc habebitis terram per fines suos in circuitu
and the border shall go down to the Jordan, and the goings out of it shall be at the Salt Sea. This shall be your land according to its borders around it.'"
13 praecepitque Moses filiis Israhel dicens haec erit terra quam possidebitis sorte et quam iussit dari Dominus novem tribubus et dimidiae tribui
Moses commanded the children of Israel, saying, "This is the land which you shall inherit by lot, which YHWH has commanded to give to the nine tribes, and to the half-tribe;
14 tribus enim filiorum Ruben per familias suas et tribus filiorum Gad iuxta cognationum numerum media quoque tribus Manasse
for the tribe of the people of Reuben according to their fathers' houses, and the tribe of the people of Gad according to their fathers' houses, have received, and the half-tribe of Manasseh have received, their inheritance:
15 id est duae semis tribus acceperunt partem suam trans Iordanem contra Hiericho ad orientalem plagam
the two tribes and the half-tribe have received their inheritance beyond the Jordan at Jericho eastward, toward the sunrise."
16 et ait Dominus ad Mosen
YHWH spoke to Moses, saying,
17 haec sunt nomina virorum qui terram vobis divident Eleazar sacerdos et Iosue filius Nun
