1And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,
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 your inheritance: that is, the land of Canaan with the coasts thereof.
3And 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
4And 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.
5And the border shall compass from Azmon unto the river of Egypt, and shall go out to the sea.
6And your West quarter shall be the great sea: even that border shall be your West coast.
7And this shall be your North quarter, ye shall mark out your border from the great sea unto mount Hor.
8From mount Hor ye shall point out till it come unto Hamath, and the end of the coast shall be at Zedad.
9And the coast shall reach out to Ziphron, and go out at Hazar Enan, this shall be your North quarter.
10And ye shall mark out your East quarter from Hazar Enan to Shepham.
11And 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 Chinnereth Eastward.
12Also that border shall go down to Jordan, and leave at the salt sea: this shall be your land with the coasts thereof round about.
13Then 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.
14For 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.
15Two tribes and an half tribe have received their inheritance on this side of Jordan toward Jericho full East.
16Again the Lord spake to Moses, saying,
17These are the names of the men which shall divide the land unto you: Eleazar the Priest, and Joshua the son of Nun.
18And ye shall take also a prince of every tribe to divide the land.
19The names also of the men are these: Of the tribe of Judah, Caleb the son of Jephunneh.
20And of the tribe of the sons of Simeon, Shemuel the son of Ammihud.
21Of the tribe of Benjamin, Elidad the son of Chislon.
22Also of the tribe of the sons of Dan, the prince Bukki, the son of Jogli.
23Of the sons of Joseph: of the tribe of the sons of Manasseh, the prince Hanniel the son of Ephod.
24And of the tribe of the sons of Ephraim, the prince Kemuel, the son of Shiphtan.
25Of the tribe also of the sons of Zebulun, the prince Elizaphan, the son of Parnach.
26So of the tribe of the sons of Issachar, the prince Paltiel, the son of Azzan.
27Of the tribe also of the sons of Asher, the prince Ahihud, the son of Shelomi.
28And of the tribe of the sons of Naphtali, the prince Pedahel, the son of Ammihud.
29These are they, whom the Lord commanded to divide the inheritance unto the children of Israel, in the land of Canaan.
