1 The LORD said to Moses,1 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
2 "Give the Israelites this order: When you enter the land of Canaan, this is the territory that shall fall to you as your heritage--the land of Canaan with its boundaries:2 Command the children of Israel, and say unto them, When ye come into the land of Canaan; (this is the land that shall fall unto you for an inheritance, even the land of Canaan with the coasts thereof:)
3 "Your southern boundary shall be at the desert of Zin along the border of Edom; on the east it shall begin at the end of the Salt Sea,3 Then your south quarter shall be from the wilderness of Zin along by the coast of Edom, and your south border shall be the outmost coast of the salt sea eastward:
4 and turning south of the Akrabbim Pass, it shall cross Zin, and extend south of Kadesh-barnea to Hazar-addar; thence it shall cross to Azmon,4 And your border shall turn from the south to the ascent of Akrabbim, and pass on to Zin: and the going forth thereof shall be from the south to Kadesh-barnea, and shall go on to Hazar-addar, and pass on to Azmon:
5 and turning from Azmon to the Wadi of Egypt, shall terminate at the Sea.5 And the border shall fetch a compass from Azmon unto the river of Egypt, and the goings out of it shall be at the sea.
6 "For your western boundary you shall have the Great Sea with its coast; this shall be your western boundary.6 And as for the western border, ye shall even have the great sea for a border: this shall be your west border.
7 "The following shall be your boundary on the north: from the Great Sea you shall draw a line to Mount Hor,7 And this shall be your north border: from the great sea ye shall point out for you mount Hor:
8 and shall continue it from Mount Hor to Labo in the land of Hamath, with the boundary extending through Zedad.8 From mount Hor ye shall point out your border unto the entrance of Hamath; and the goings forth of the border shall be to Zedad:
9 Thence the boundary shall reach to Ziphron and terminate at Hazar-enan. This shall be your northern boundary.9 And the border shall go on to Ziphron, and the goings out of it shall be at Hazar-enan: this shall be your north border.
10 "For your eastern boundary you shall draw a line from Hazar-enan to Shepham.10 And ye shall point out your east border from Hazar-enan to Shepham:
11 From Shepham the boundary shall go down to Ar-Baal, east of Ain, and descending further, shall strike the ridge on the east side of the Sea of Chinnereth;11 And the coast shall go down from Shepham to Riblah, on the east side of Ain; and the border shall descend, and shall reach unto the side of the sea of Chinnereth eastward:
12 thence the boundary shall continue along the Jordan and terminate with the Salt Sea. "This is the land that shall be yours, with the boundaries that surround it."12 And the border shall go down to Jordan, and the goings out of it shall be at the salt sea: this shall be your land with the coasts thereof round about.
13 Moses also gave this order to the Israelites: "This is the land, to be apportioned among you by lot, which the LORD has commanded to be given to the nine and one half tribes.13 And Moses commanded the children of Israel, saying, This is the land which ye shall inherit by lot, which the LORD commanded to give unto the nine tribes, and to the half tribe:
14 For all the ancestral houses of the tribe of Reuben, and the ancestral houses of the tribe of Gad, as well as half of the tribe of Manasseh, have already received their heritage;14 For the tribe of the children of Reuben according to the house of their fathers, and the tribe of the children of Gad according to the house of their fathers, have received their inheritance; and half the tribe of Manasseh have received their inheritance:
15 these two and one half tribes have received their heritage on the eastern side of the Jericho stretch of the Jordan, toward the sunrise."15 The two tribes and the half tribe have received their inheritance on this side Jordan near Jericho eastward, toward the sunrising.
16 The LORD said to Moses,16 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
17 "These are the names of the men who shall apportion the land among you: Eleazar the priest, and Joshua, son of Nun,17 These are the names of the men which shall divide the land unto you: Eleazar the priest, and Joshua the son of Nun.
18 and one prince from each of the tribes whom you shall designate for this task.18 And ye shall take one prince of every tribe, to divide the land by inheritance.
19 These shall be as follows: from the tribe of Judah: Caleb, son of Jephunneh,19 And the names of the men are these: Of the tribe of Judah, Caleb the son of Jephunneh.
20 from the tribe of Simeon: Samuel, son of Ammihud;20 And of the tribe of the children of Simeon, Shemuel the son of Ammihud.
21 from the tribe of Benjamin: Elidad, son of Chislon;21 Of the tribe of Benjamin, Elidad the son of Chislon.
22 from the tribe of Dan: Bukki, son of Jogli;22 And the prince of the tribe of the children of Dan, Bukki the son of Jogli.
23 from the tribe of Manasseh: Hanniel, son of Ephod; and23 The prince of the children of Joseph, for the tribe of the children of Manasseh, Hanniel the son of Ephod.
24 from the tribe of Ephraim: Kemuel, son of Shiphtan, for the descendants of Joseph;24 And the prince of the tribe of the children of Ephraim, Kemuel the son of Shiphtan.
25 from the tribe of Zebulun: Elizaphan, son of Parnach;25 And the prince of the tribe of the children of Zebulun, Elizaphan the son of Parnach.
26 from the tribe of Issachar: Paltiel, son of Azzan;26 And the prince of the tribe of the children of Issachar, Paltiel the son of Azzan.
27 from the tribe of Asher: Ahihud, son of Shelomi;27 And the prince of the tribe of the children of Asher, Ahihud the son of Shelomi.
28 from the tribe of Naphtali: Pedahel, son of Ammihud."28 And the prince of the tribe of the children of Naphtali, Pedahel the son of Ammihud.
29 These are they whom the LORD commanded to assign the Israelites their heritage in the land of Canaan.29 These are they whom the LORD commanded to divide the inheritance unto the children of Israel in the land of Canaan.
