19 "'On the side of the Negev toward the south it will be from Tamar as far as the waters of M'rivot-Kadesh, then to the Vadi [of Egypt] and on to the Great Sea. This is the south side toward the Negev.

20 "'The west side will be the Great Sea, as far as across from the entrance to Hamat. This is the west side.

21 "'This is the territory you are to divide among the tribes of Isra'el.

22 You are to divide it by lot as an inheritance both to you and to the foreigners living among you who give birth to children living among you; for you they are to be no different from the native-born among the people of Isra'el - they are to have an inheritance with you among the tribes of Isra'el.

23 You are to give the foreigner an inheritance in the territory of the tribe with whom he is living,' says Adonai ELOHIM.
