| 1Then the LORD spoke to Moses: | 1And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
| 2"Give these instructions to the Israelites, and tell them: 'When you enter Canaan, the land that has been assigned to you as an inheritance, the land of Canaan with its borders, | 2Command the children of Israel, and say unto them, When ye come into the land of Canaan; (this is the land that shall fall unto you for an inheritance, even the land of Canaan with the coasts thereof:) |
| 3your southern border will extend from the wilderness of Zin along the Edomite border, and your southern border will run eastward to the extremity of the Salt Sea, | 3Then your south quarter shall be from the wilderness of Zin along by the coast of Edom, and your south border shall be the outmost coast of the salt sea eastward: |
| 4and then the border will turn from the south to the Scorpion Ascent, continue to Zin, and then its direction will be from the south to Kadesh Barnea. Then it will go to Hazar Addar and pass over to Azmon. | 4And your border shall turn from the south to the ascent of Akrabbim, and pass on to Zin: and the going forth thereof shall be from the south to Kadeshbarnea, and shall go on to Hazaraddar, and pass on to Azmon: |
| 5There the border will turn from Azmon to the Brook of Egypt, and then its direction is to the sea. | 5And the border shall fetch a compass from Azmon unto the river of Egypt, and the goings out of it shall be at the sea. |
| 6"'And for a western border you will have the Great Sea. This will be your western border. | 6And as for the western border, ye shall even have the great sea for a border: this shall be your west border. |
| 7"'And this will be your northern border: From the Great Sea you will draw a line to Mount Hor; | 7And this shall be your north border: from the great sea ye shall point out for you mount Hor: |
| 8from Mount Hor you will draw a line to Lebo Hamath, and the direction of the border will be to Zedad. | 8From mount Hor ye shall point out your border unto the entrance of Hamath; and the goings forth of the border shall be to Zedad: |
| 9The border will continue to Ziphron, and its direction will be to Hazar Enan. This will be your northern border. | 9And the border shall go on to Ziphron, and the goings out of it shall be at Hazarenan: this shall be your north border. |
| 10"'For your eastern border you will draw a line from Hazar Enan to Shepham. | 10And ye shall point out your east border from Hazarenan to Shepham: |
| 11The border will run down from Shepham to Riblah, on the east side of Ain, and the border will descend and reach the eastern side of the Sea of Chinnereth. | 11And the coast shall go down from Shepham to Riblah, on the east side of Ain; and the border shall descend, and shall reach unto the side of the sea of Chinnereth eastward: |
| 12Then the border will continue down the Jordan River and its direction will be to the Salt Sea. This will be your land by its borders that surround it.'" | 12And the border shall go down to Jordan, and the goings out of it shall be at the salt sea: this shall be your land with the coasts thereof round about. |
| 13Then Moses commanded the Israelites: "This is the land which you will inherit by lot, which the LORD has commanded to be given to the nine and a half tribes, | 13And Moses commanded the children of Israel, saying, This is the land which ye shall inherit by lot, which the LORD commanded to give unto the nine tribes, and to the half tribe: |
| 14because the tribe of the Reubenites by their families, the tribe of the Gadites by their families, and half of the tribe of Manasseh have received their inheritance. | 14For the tribe of the children of Reuben according to the house of their fathers, and the tribe of the children of Gad according to the house of their fathers, have received their inheritance; and half the tribe of Manasseh have received their inheritance: |
| 15The two and a half tribes have received their inheritance on this side of the Jordan, east of Jericho, toward the sunrise." | 15The two tribes and the half tribe have received their inheritance on this side Jordan near Jericho eastward, toward the sunrising. |
| 16The LORD said to Moses: | 16And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
| 17"These are the names of the men who are to allocate the land to you as an inheritance: Eleazar the priest and Joshua son of Nun. | 17These are the names of the men which shall divide the land unto you: Eleazar the priest, and Joshua the son of Nun. |
| 18You must take one leader from every tribe to assist in allocating the land as an inheritance. | 18And ye shall take one prince of every tribe, to divide the land by inheritance. |
| 19These are the names of the men: from the tribe of Judah, Caleb son of Jephunneh; | 19And the names of the men are these: Of the tribe of Judah, Caleb the son of Jephunneh. |
| 20from the tribe of the Simeonites, Shemuel son of Ammihud; | 20And of the tribe of the children of Simeon, Shemuel the son of Ammihud. |
| 21from the tribe of Benjamin, Elidad son of Kislon; | 21Of the tribe of Benjamin, Elidad the son of Chislon. |
| 22and from the tribe of the Danites, a leader, Bukki son of Jogli. | 22And the prince of the tribe of the children of Dan, Bukki the son of Jogli. |
| 23From the Josephites, Hanniel son of Ephod, a leader from the tribe of Manasseh; | 23The prince of the children of Joseph, for the tribe of the children of Manasseh, Hanniel the son of Ephod. |
| 24from the tribe of the Ephraimites, a leader, Kemuel son of Shiphtan; | 24And the prince of the tribe of the children of Ephraim, Kemuel the son of Shiphtan. |
| 25from the tribe of the Zebulunites, a leader, Elizaphan son of Parnach; | 25And the prince of the tribe of the children of Zebulun, Elizaphan the son of Parnach. |
| 26from the tribe of the Issacharites, a leader, Paltiel son of Azzan; | 26And the prince of the tribe of the children of Issachar, Paltiel the son of Azzan. |
| 27from the tribe of the Asherites, a leader, Ahihud son of Shelomi; | 27And the prince of the tribe of the children of Asher, Ahihud the son of Shelomi. |
| 28and from the tribe of the Naphtalites, a leader, Pedahel son of Ammihud." | 28And the prince of the tribe of the children of Naphtali, Pedahel the son of Ammihud. |
| 29These are the ones whom the LORD commanded to divide up the inheritance among the Israelites in the land of Canaan. | 29These are they whom the LORD commanded to divide the inheritance unto the children of Israel in the land of Canaan. |
