Numbers 34
34
Boundaries of the Land
1Then the Lord said to Moses, 2“Give these instructions to the Israelites: When you come into the land of Canaan, which I am giving you as your special possession, these will be the boundaries. 3The southern portion of your country will extend from the wilderness of Zin, along the edge of Edom. The southern boundary will begin on the east at the Dead Sea.#34:3 Hebrew Salt Sea; also in 34:12. 4It will then run south past Scorpion Pass#34:4 Or the ascent of Akrabbim. in the direction of Zin. Its southernmost point will be Kadesh-barnea, from which it will go to Hazar-addar, and on to Azmon. 5From Azmon the boundary will turn toward the Brook of Egypt and end at the Mediterranean Sea.#34:5 Hebrew the sea; also in 34:6, 7.
6“Your western boundary will be the coastline of the Mediterranean Sea.
7“Your northern boundary will begin at the Mediterranean Sea and run east to Mount Hor, 8then to Lebo-hamath, and on through Zedad 9and Ziphron to Hazar-enan. This will be your northern boundary.
10“The eastern boundary will start at Hazar-enan and run south to Shepham, 11then down to Riblah on the east side of Ain. From there the boundary will run down along the eastern edge of the Sea of Galilee,#34:11 Hebrew Sea of Kinnereth. 12and then along the Jordan River to the Dead Sea. These are the boundaries of your land.”
13Then Moses told the Israelites, “This territory is the homeland you are to divide among yourselves by sacred lot. The Lord has commanded that the land be divided among the nine and a half remaining tribes. 14The families of the tribes of Reuben, Gad, and half the tribe of Manasseh have already received their grants of land 15on the east side of the Jordan River, across from Jericho toward the sunrise.”
Leaders to Divide the Land
16And the Lord said to Moses, 17“Eleazar the priest and Joshua son of Nun are the men designated to divide the grants of land among the people. 18Enlist one leader from each tribe to help them with the task. 19These are the tribes and the names of the leaders:
| Tribe | Leader |
|---|---|
| Judah | Caleb son of Jephunneh |
| 20Simeon | Shemuel son of Ammihud |
| 21Benjamin | Elidad son of Kislon |
| 22Dan | Bukki son of Jogli |
| 23Manasseh son of Joseph | Hanniel son of Ephod |
| 24Ephraim son of Joseph | Kemuel son of Shiphtan |
| 25Zebulun | Elizaphan son of Parnach |
| 26Issachar | Paltiel son of Azzan |
| 27Asher | Ahihud son of Shelomi |
| 28Naphtali | Pedahel son of Ammihud |
29These are the men the Lord has appointed to divide the grants of land in Canaan among the Israelites.”
