1The LORD told Moses, | 1Then the LORD said to Moses, |
2"Issue these orders to the Israelis: 'You're about to enter the land of Canaan. This territory has been apportioned to you as your inheritance: the entire land of Canaan, all the way to its borders.'" | 2“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: |
3"'To your south is the Wilderness of Zin, bordering Edom. Your southern border is to extend east toward the far end of the Dead Sea, | 3Your southern border will extend from the Wilderness of Zin along the border of Edom. On the east, your southern border will run from the end of the Salt Sea, |
4then it is to turn southward to the ascent of Akrabbim, cross Zin, and then run south of Kadesh-barnea and proceed from there to Hazar-addar and across to Azmon. | 4cross south of 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, |
5Then the border is to turn from Azmon toward the wadi of Egypt and from there to the Mediterranean Sea.'" | 5where it will turn from Azmon, join the Brook of Egypt, and end at the Sea. |
6"'The western border is to be the Mediterranean Sea. This is to be the western border.'" | 6Your western border will be the coastline of the Great Sea; this will be your boundary on the west. |
7"'Your northern border is to extend from the Mediterranean Sea to Mount Hor. | 7Your northern border will run from the Great Sea directly to Mount Hor, |
8From Mount Hor, you are to mark out the entrance to Hammath, with the border running through Zedad, | 8and from Mount Hor to Lebo-hamath, then extend to Zedad, |
9then through Ziphron, and then to Hazar-enan. This is to be the northern border.'" | 9continue to Ziphron, and end at Hazar-enan. This will be your boundary on the north. |
10"'You are to mark the border on the east from Hazar-enan to Shepham. | 10And your eastern border will run straight from Hazar-enan to Shepham, |
11The border is then to extend from Shepham to Riblah, on the east side of Ain, then to the Sea of Chinnereth on the east. | 11then go down from Shepham to Riblah on the east side of Ain and continue along the slopes east of the Sea of Chinnereth. |
12The border is to continue along the Jordan River all the way to the Dead Sea. This is to be your land, as measured by its boundaries.'" | 12Then 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.” |
13Moses commanded the Israelis, "You are to inherit this land by lot, just as the LORD commanded to give it to the remaining nine and a half tribes. | 13So Moses commanded the Israelites, “Apportion this land by lot as an inheritance. The LORD has commanded that it be given to the nine and a half tribes. |
14The tribes of Reuben, Gad, and half the tribe of Manasseh, as defined by their ancestral houses, have received their inheritance. | 14For the tribes of the Reubenites and Gadites, along with the half-tribe of Manasseh, have already received their inheritance. |
15These two and a half tribes received their inheritance this side of the Jordan River, east of Jericho, facing the rising sun." | 15These two and a half tribes have received their inheritance across the Jordan from Jericho, toward the sunrise.” |
16Then the LORD told Moses, | 16Then the LORD said to Moses, |
17"These are the names of the men who are to divide the land for your inheritance: Eleazar the priest and Nun's son Joshua. | 17“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. |
18You are to appoint a leader from each tribe to divide the land for inheritance. | 18Appoint one leader from each tribe to distribute the land. |
19These are the names of the men: Appoint Jephunneh's son Caleb from the tribe of Judah, | 19These are their names: Caleb son of Jephunneh from the tribe of Judah; |
20Ammihud's son Shemuel from the tribe of Simeon, | 20Shemuel son of Ammihud from the tribe of Simeon; |
21Chislon's son Elidad from the tribe of Benjamin, | 21Elidad son of Chislon from the tribe of Benjamin; |
22and Jogli's son Bukki is to be leader of the tribe of Dan. | 22Bukki son of Jogli, a leader from the tribe of Dan; |
23From the tribe of Joseph, you are to appoint Ephod's son Hanniel to be leader of the half tribe of Manasseh, | 23Hanniel son of Ephod, a leader from the tribe of Manasseh son of Joseph; |
24Shiphtan's son Kemuel to be leader of the half tribe of Ephraim, | 24Kemuel son of Shiphtan, a leader from the tribe of Ephraim; |
25Parnach's son Elizaphan to be leader of the tribe of Zebulun, | 25Eli-zaphan son of Parnach, a leader from the tribe of Zebulun; |
26Azzan's son Paltiel to be leader of the tribe of Issachar, | 26Paltiel son of Azzan, a leader from the tribe of Issachar; |
27Shelomi's son Ahihud to be leader of the tribe of Asher, | 27Ahihud son of Shelomi, a leader from the tribe of Asher; |
28and Ammihud's son Pedahel to be leader of the tribe of Naphtali." | 28and Pedahel son of Ammihud, a leader from the tribe of Naphtali.” |
29These are the ones whom the LORD commanded to divide the inheritance of the Israelis in the land of Canaan. | 29These are the ones whom the LORD commanded to apportion the inheritance to the Israelites in the land of Canaan. |
