Numbers 34 Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

34 And the Lord said to Moses,

²Command 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),

³Your 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.

⁴Your 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.

⁵Then the boundary shall turn from Azmon to the Brook of Egypt, and it shall terminate at the [Mediterranean] Sea.

⁶For the western boundary you shall have the Great Sea and its coast.

⁷And this shall be your north border: from the Great Sea mark out your boundary line to Mount Hor;

⁸From Mount Hor you shall mark out your boundary to the entrance of Hamath, and its end shall be at Zedad;

⁹Then the northern boundary shall go on to Ziphron, and the end of it shall be at Hazar-enan.

¹⁰You shall mark out your eastern boundary from Hazar-enan to Shepham;

¹¹The 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;

¹²And 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.

¹³Moses 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],

¹⁴For 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.

¹⁵The two and a half tribes have received their inheritance east of the Jordan at Jericho, toward the sunrise.

¹⁶And the Lord said to Moses,

¹⁷These are the men who shall divide the land to you for inheritance: Eleazar the priest and Joshua son of Nun.

¹⁸And [with them] you shall take one head or prince of each tribe to divide the land for inheritance.

¹⁹The names of the men are: Of the tribe of Judah, Caleb son of Jephunneh;

²⁰Of the tribe of the sons of Simeon, Shemuel son of Ammihud;

²¹Of the tribe of Benjamin, Elidad son of Chislon;

²²Of the tribe of the sons of Dan a leader, Bukki son of Jogli;

²³Of the sons of Joseph: of the tribe of the sons of Manasseh a leader, Hanniel son of Ephod;

²⁴And of the tribe of the sons of Ephraim a leader, Kemuel son of Shiphtan;

²⁵And of the tribe of the sons of Zebulun a leader, Elizaphan son of Parnach;
