Numbers Chapter 34
1 And the Lord spake unto Moses,
saying,
2 Command the children of Israel, and
say unto them, When ye come into the
land of Canaan, this is the land that shall
fall unto your inheritance: that is, the
land of Canaan with the coasts thereof.
3 And your south quarter shall be from
the wilderness of Zin to the borders of
Edom: so that your south quarter shall be
from the salt sea coast eastward: 4 And
the border shall compass you from the
south to Maaleh-akrabbim, and reach to
Zin, and go out from the south to
Kadesh-barnea: thence it shall stretch to
Hazar-addar, and go along to Azmon.
5 And the border shall compass from
Azmon unto the river of Egypt, and shall
go out to the sea.
6 And your west quarter shall be the
great sea: even that border shall be your
west coast.
7 And this shall be your north quarter: ye
shall mark out your border from the great
sea unto mount Hor.
8 From mount Hor ye shall point out till
it come unto Hamath, and the end of the
coast shall be at Zedad.
9 And the coast shall reach out to
Ziphron, and go out at Hazar-enan. this
shall be your north quarter.
10 And ye shall mark out your east
quarter from Hazar-enan to Shepham. 11
And the coast shall go down from
Shepham to Riblah, and from the east
side of Ain: and the same border shall
descend and go out at the side of the sea
of Chinneereth eastward.
12 Also that border shall go down to
Jordan, and leave at the salt sea. This
shall be your land with the coasts thereof
round about.
13 Then Moses commanded the children
of Israel, saying, This is the land which
ye shall inherit by lot, which the Lord
commanded to give unto nine tribes and
half the tribe.
14 For the tribe of the children of
Reuben, according to the households of
their fathers, and the tribe of the children
of Gad, according to their fathers’
households, and half the tribe of
Manasseh, have received their
inheritance. 15 Two tribes and an half
tribe have received their inheritance on
this side of Jordan toward Jericho full
east.
16 Again the Lord spake to Moses,
saying,
17 These are the names of the men which
shall divide the land unto you: Eleazar
the priest, and Joshua the son of Nun.
18 And ye shall take also a prince of
every tribe to divide the land. 19 The
names also of the men are these: Of the
tribe of Judah, Caleb the son of
Jephunneh.
20 And of the tribe of the sons of
Simeon, Shemuel the son of Ammihud.
21 Of the tribe of Benjamin, Elidad the
son of Chislon.
22 Also of the tribe of the sons of Dan,
the prince Bukki, the son of Jogli. 23 Of
the sons of Joseph: of the tribe of the
sons of Manasseh, the prince Hanniel the
son of Ephod.
24 And of the tribe of the sons of
Ephraim, the prince Kemuel, the son of
Shiphtan.
25 Of the tribe also of the sons of
Zebulun, the prince Elizaphan, the son of
Parnach.
26 So of the tribe of the sons of Issachar,
the prince Paltiel the son of Azzan. 27
Of the tribe also of the sons of Asher, the
prince Ahihud, the son of Shelomi.
28 And of the tribe of the sons of
Naphtali, the prince Pedahel, the son of
Ammihud.
29 These are they, whom the Lord
commanded to divide the inheritance
unto the children of Israel, in the land of
Canaan.
