Num 34:1And the Lord said to Moses,
Num 34:2Give orders to the children of Israel and say to them, When you come into the land of Canaan; (this is the land which is to be your heritage, the land of Canaan inside these limits,)
Num 34:3Then your south quarter will be from the waste land of Zin by the side of Edom, and your limit on the south will be from the east end of the Salt Sea,
Num 34:4And round to the south of the slope of Akrabbim, and on to Zin: and its direction will be south of Kadesh-barnea, and it will go as far as Hazar-addar and on to Azmon:
Num 34:5And from Azmon it will go round to the stream of Egypt as far as the sea.
Num 34:6And for your limit on the west you will have the Great Sea and its edge: this will be your limit on the west.
Num 34:7And your limit on the north will be the line from the Great Sea to Mount Hor:
Num 34:8And from Mount Hor the line will go in the direction of Hamath; the farthest point of it will be at Zedad:
Num 34:9And the limit will go on to Ziphron, with its farthest point at Hazar-enan: this will be your limit on the north.
Num 34:10And on the east, your limit will be marked out from Hazar-enan to Shepham,
Num 34:11Going down from Shepham to Riblah on the east side of Ain, and on as far as the east side of the sea of Chinnereth:
Num 34:12And so down to Jordan, stretching to the Salt Sea: all the land inside these limits will be yours.
Num 34:13And Moses gave orders to the children of Israel saying, This is the land which is to be your heritage, by the decision of the Lord, which by the Lord's order is to be given to the nine tribes and the half-tribe:
Num 34:14For the tribe of the children of Reuben, by their fathers' families, and the tribe of the children of Gad, by their fathers' families, and the half-tribe of Manasseh, have been given their heritage:
Num 34:15The two tribes and the half-tribe have been given their heritage on the other side of Jordan at Jericho, on the east looking to the dawn.
