CHAPTER 34

Then the LORD

said

to

Moses,

“Command

the Israelites

and say

to them:

When

you

enter

the land

of Canaan,

it

will be allotted

to you as an inheritance

with these boundaries:

Your southern

border

will extend

from the wilderness

of Zin

along

the border

of Edom.

On the east,

your southern

border

will extend

from the end

of the Salt

Sea,

turn

from the south

to the ascent of Akrabbim,

continue

to Zin,

and go

south

of Kadesh-barnea.

Then it will go on

to Hazar-addar

and proceed

to Azmon,

where it

will turn

from Azmon,

join the Brook

of Egypt,

and end

at the Sea.

Your western

border

will be

the coastline

of the Great

Sea;

this

will be

your

boundary

on the west.

Your northern

border

will run

from

the Great

Sea

directly

to Mount

Hor,

and from Mount

Hor

to Lebo-hamath,

then

extending

to Zedad,

continuing

to Ziphron,

and ending

at Hazar-enan.

This

will be

your

boundary

on the north.

And your eastern

border

will run straight

from

Hazar-enan

to Shepham,

then

go down

from Shepham

to Riblah

on the east side

of Ain

and continue along

the slopes

east

of the Sea

of Chinnereth.

Then the border

will go down

along the Jordan

and end

at the Salt

Sea.

This

will be

your land,

defined by its borders

on all sides.”

So Moses

commanded

the Israelites,

“Apportion this

land

by lot

as an inheritance,

which

the LORD

commanded

to be given

to the nine

and a half

tribes.

For

the tribes

of the Reubenites

and

Gadites,

along with the half-tribe

of Manasseh,

have already received their inheritance.

These two

and a half

tribes

have received

their inheritance

across

the Jordan

from Jericho,

toward the sunrise.”

Then the LORD

said

to

Moses,

“These

are the names

of the men

who

are to assign the land

as an inheritance for you:

Eleazar

the priest

and Joshua

son

of Nun.

Appoint

one

leader

from each

tribe

to distribute

the land.

These

are their names:

Caleb

son

of Jephunneh

from the tribe

of Judah;

Shemuel

son

of Ammihud

from the tribe

of Simeon;

Elidad

son

of Chislon

from the tribe

of Benjamin;

Bukki

son

of Jogli,

a leader

from the tribe

of Dan;

Hanniel

son

of Ephod,

a leader

from the tribe

of Manasseh

son

of Joseph;

Kemuel

son

of Shiphtan,

a leader

from the tribe

of Ephraim son of Joseph;

Eli-zaphan

son

of Parnach,

a leader

from the tribe

of Zebulun;

Paltiel

son

of Azzan,

a leader

from the tribe

of Issachar;

Ahihud

son

of Shelomi,

a leader

from the tribe

of Asher;

and Pedahel

son

of Ammihud,

a leader

from the tribe

of Naphtali.”

These

are the ones whom

the LORD

commanded

to apportion the inheritance

to the Israelites

in the land

of Canaan.
