1And יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying,
2“Command the children of Yisra’ĕl, and say to them, ‘When you come into the land of Kena‛an, this is the land which falls to you as an inheritance, the land of Kena‛an to its boundaries:
3Then your southern border shall be from the Wilderness of Tsin along the border of Eḏom, and your southern border shall be eastward from the end of the Salt Sea.
4Then your border shall turn from the southern side of the Ascent of Aqrabbim, continue to Tsin, and be on the south of Qaḏĕsh Barnĕa, and it shall go on to Ḥatsar Addar, and continue to Atsmon.
5And the border shall turn from Atsmon to the wadi of Mitsrayim, and it shall end at the Sea.
6As for the western border, you shall have the Great Sea for a border, this is your western border.
7And this is your northern border: From the Great Sea you mark out your borderline to Mount Hor,
8from Mount Hor you mark out your border to the entrance of Ḥamath, and the edge of the border shall be toward Tseḏaḏ,
9and the border shall proceed to Ziphron, and it shall end at Ḥatsar Ěnan. This is your northern border.
10And you shall mark out your eastern border from Ḥatsar Ěnan to Shepham,
11and the border shall go down from Shepham to Riḇlah on the east side of Ayin, and the border shall go down and reach to the eastern side of the Sea of Kinnereth.
12And the border shall go down along the Yardĕn, and it shall end at the Salt Sea. This is your land with its surrounding boundaries.’ ”
13And Mosheh commanded the children of Yisra’ĕl, saying, “This is the land which you inherit by lot, which יהוה has commanded to give to the nine tribes and to the half-tribe.
14“For the tribe of the children of Re’uḇĕn according to the house of their fathers, and the tribe of the children of Gaḏ according to the house of their fathers, have received their inheritance. And the half-tribe of Menashsheh has received its inheritance.
15“The two tribes and the half-tribe have received their inheritance beyond the Yardĕn of Yeriḥo eastward, toward the sunrise.”
16And יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying,
17“These are the names of the men who divide the land among you as an inheritance: El‛azar the priest, and Yehoshua son of Nun.
18“And take one leader of every tribe to divide the land for the inheritance.
19“And these are the names of the men. From the tribe of Yehuḏah: Kalĕḇ son of Yephunneh.
20“And from the tribe of the children of Shim‛on: Shemu’ĕl son of Ammihuḏ.
21“From the tribe of Binyamin: Eliḏaḏ son of Kislon.
22“And a leader from the tribe of the children of Dan: Buqqi son of Yoḡli.
23“From the sons of Yosĕph: a leader from the tribe of the children of Menashsheh, Ḥanni’ĕl son of Ěphoḏ.
24“And a leader from the tribe of the children of Ephrayim: Qemu’ĕl son of Shiphtan.
25“And a leader from the tribe of the children of Zeḇulun: Elitsaphan son of Parnaḵ.
26“And a leader from the tribe of the children of Yissasḵar: Palti’ĕl son of Azzan.
27“And a leader from the tribe of the children of Ashĕr: Aḥihuḏ son of Shelomi.
28“And a leader from the tribe of the children of Naphtali: Peḏah’ĕl son of Ammihuḏ.”
29These are the ones יהוה commanded to divide the inheritance among the children of Yisra’ĕl in the land of Kena‛an.

The Land of Canaan Is Divided
1Then Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, 2“Command the Israelites#Literally “sons/children of Israel” and say to them, ‘When you come into the land of Canaan, this is the land that was allotted to you as an inheritance, the land of Canaan according to its boundaries. 3Your southern edge will be from the desert of Zin toward the side of Edom, and your southern border will be from the end of the Salt Sea#That is, the Dead Sea to the east; 4your boundary will turn from the south to the ascent of Akrabbim#Or “Scorpions” and will pass over to Zin, and its limits will be from the south of Kadesh Barnea; it will continue to Hazar Addar and pass over to Azmon. 5The boundary will turn from Azmon to the valley of Egypt, and its limits will be to the sea.
6“ ‘Your western boundary will be the Great Sea;#That is, the Mediterranean this will be your western boundary. 7Your northern border will be from the Great Sea;#That is, the Mediterranean you will make a boundary from the Great Sea#That is, the Mediterranean to Mount Hor. 8From Mount Hor you will make a boundary to reach Hamath; the limits of the territory will be at Zedad. 9The boundary will go out to Ziphron, and its limits will be at Hazar Enan. This will be your boundary to the north.
10“ ‘You will mark out your eastern boundary from Hazar Enan to Shepham; 11the boundary will go down from Shepham to Riblah from the east side of Ain, and the boundary will go down and border on the eastern side of the Sea of Kinnereth. 12The boundary will go down to the Jordan, and its limits will be at the Salt Sea.#That is, the Dead Sea This will be your land according to its boundaries all around.’ ”
13So Moses commanded the Israelites,#Literally “sons/children of Israel” saying, “This is the land that you will obtain as an inheritance for yourself by lot, which Yahweh commanded to give to the nine and a half tribes. 14For the tribe of the children of the Reubenites,#Hebrew “Reubenite” the children of the Gadites,#Hebrew “Gadite” and the half-tribe of Manasseh took their inheritance according to the house of their families.#Or “their fathers” 15The two and a half tribes have taken their inheritance from beyond the Jordan across Jericho, east toward the sunrise.”
16Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, 17“These are the names of the men who divide up the land for your inheritance: Eleazar the priest and Joshua son of Nun. 18You will take one leader from every tribe to divide up the land for inheritance. 19These are the names of the men: of the tribe of Judah, Caleb son of Jephunneh; 20of the tribe of the descendants of Simeon, Samuel son of Ammihud; 21of the tribe of Benjamin, Elidad son of Chislon; 22of the tribe of the descendants#Or “sons” of Dan, the leader Bukki son of Jogli; 23of the descendants#Or “sons” of Joseph, the tribe of the descendants#Or “sons” of Manasseh, the leader Hanniel son of Ephod. 24Of the tribe of the descendants#Or “sons” of Ephraim, the leader Kemuel son of Shiphtan; 25of the tribe of the descendants#Or “sons” of Zebulum, the leader Elizaphan son of Parnach; 26of the tribe of the descendants#Or “sons” of Issachar, the leader Paltiel son of Azzan; 27of the tribe of the descendants#Or “sons” of Asher, the leader Ahihud son of Shelomi; 28of the tribe of the descendants#Or “sons” of Naphtali, the leader Pedahel son of Ammihud.” 29These are those whom Yahweh commanded to allot to the Israelites#Literally “sons/children of Israel” the land of Canaan.
