Numbers 34:1-29 AMPC

[1] And the Lord said to Moses, [2] Command the Israelites, When you come into the land of Canaan (which is the land that shall be yours for an inheritance, the land of Canaan according to its boundaries), [3] Your south side shall be from the Wilderness of Zin along the side of Edom, and your southern boundary from the end of the Salt [Dead] Sea eastward. [4] Your boundary shall turn south of the ascent of Akrabbim, and pass on to Zin, and its end shall be south of Kadesh-barnea. Then it shall go on to Hazar-addar and pass on to Azmon. [5] Then the boundary shall turn from Azmon to the Brook of Egypt, and it shall terminate at the [Mediterranean] Sea. [6] For the western boundary you shall have the Great Sea and its coast. [7] And this shall be your north border: from the Great Sea mark out your boundary line to Mount Hor; [8] From Mount Hor you shall mark out your boundary to the entrance of Hamath, and its end shall be at Zedad; [9] Then the northern boundary shall go on to Ziphron, and the end of it shall be at Hazar-enan. [10] You shall mark out your eastern boundary from Hazar-enan to Shepham; [11] The boundary shall go down from Shepham to Riblah on the east side of Ain and shall descend and reach to the shoulder of the Sea of Chinnereth [the Sea of Galilee] on the east; [12] And the boundary shall go down to the Jordan, and the end shall be at the Salt Sea. This shall be your land with its boundaries all around. [13] Moses commanded the Israelites, This is the land you shall inherit by lot, which the Lord has commanded to give to the nine tribes and the half-tribe [of Manasseh], [14] For the tribes of the sons of Reuben and of Gad by their fathers' houses have received their inheritance, and also the half-tribe of Manasseh. [15] The two and a half tribes have received their inheritance east of the Jordan at Jericho, toward the sunrise. [16] And the Lord said to Moses, [17] These are the men who shall divide the land to you for inheritance: Eleazar the priest and Joshua son of Nun. [18] And [with them] you shall take one head or prince of each tribe to divide the land for inheritance. [19] The names of the men are: Of the tribe of Judah, Caleb son of Jephunneh; [20] Of the tribe of the sons of Simeon, Shemuel son of Ammihud; [21] Of the tribe of Benjamin, Elidad son of Chislon; [22] Of the tribe of the sons of Dan a leader, Bukki son of Jogli; [23] Of the sons of Joseph: of the tribe of the sons of Manasseh a leader, Hanniel son of Ephod; [24] And of the tribe of the sons of Ephraim a leader, Kemuel son of Shiphtan; [25] And of the tribe of the sons of Zebulun a leader, Elizaphan son of Parnach; [26] And of the tribe of the sons of Issachar a leader, Paltiel son of Azzan; [27] And of the tribe of the sons of Asher a leader, Ahihud son of Shelomi; [28] And of the tribe of the sons of Naphtali a leader, Pedahel son of Ammihud. [29] These are the men whom the Lord commanded to divide the inheritance to the Israelites in the land of Canaan.
