Numbers 34

GOD'S WORD Translation GW

1 The LORD said to Moses,

2 "Give the Israelites these instructions. When you enter Canaan, the land that will be given to you as your inheritance has these borders:

3 "The southern side includes part of the Desert of Zin along the border of Edom. In the east the southern border starts from the end of the Dead Sea

4 and turns south of the Akrabbim Pass. It then goes past Zin and ends at Kadesh Barnea. From there it goes to Hazar Addar and on to Azmon.

5 From Azmon it turns toward the River of Egypt so that the border ends at the Mediterranean Sea.

6 "The western border is the coastline of the Mediterranean Sea.

7 "The northern border extends from the Mediterranean Sea to Mount Hor,

8 and from Mount Hor to the border of Hamath so that it ends at Zedad.

9 From there the border goes to Ziphron and ends at Hazar Enan.

10 "The eastern border extends from Hazar Enan to Shepham.

11 From Shepham the border goes down to Riblah, east of Ain, and continues along the eastern slope of the Sea of Galilee.

12 Then the border goes along the Jordan River so that it ends at the Dead Sea. "This will be your land and the borders around it."

13 Moses commanded the Israelites, "This is the land you will divide by drawing lots. The LORD has commanded that this land will be given to the nine-and-a-half tribes.

14 The households from the tribes of Reuben, Gad, and half of the tribe of Manasseh have already received their land.

15 Those two-and-a-half tribes received land east of the Jordan River across from Jericho."

16 The LORD said to Moses,

17 "These are the names of the men who will divide the land for you: the priest Eleazar and Joshua, son of Nun.

18 You must also take one leader from each tribe to divide the land.

19 These are their names: Caleb, son of Jephunneh, from the tribe of Judah;

20 Shemuel, son of Ammihud, from the tribe of Simeon;

21 Elidad, son of Kislon, from the tribe of Benjamin;

22 Bukki, son of Jogli, the leader of the tribe of Dan;

23 Hanniel, son of Ephod, the leader of the tribe of Manasseh;

24 Kemuel, son of Shiphtan, the leader of the tribe of Ephraim; (Manasseh and Ephraim are Joseph's descendants.)

25 Elizaphan, son of Parnach, the leader of the tribe of Zebulun;

26 Paltiel, son of Azzan, the leader of the tribe of Issachar;

27 Ahihud, son of Shelomi, the leader of the tribe of Asher;

28 Pedahel, son of Ammihud, the leader of the tribe of Naphtali."

29 These are the men the LORD commanded to divide Canaan for the Israelites.

New International Version NIV

1 The LORD said to Moses,

2 “Command the Israelites and say to them: ‘When you enter Canaan, the land that will be allotted to you as an inheritance is to have these boundaries:

3 “ ‘Your southern side will include some of the Desert of Zin along the border of Edom. Your southern boundary will start in the east from the southern end of the Dead Sea,

4 cross south of Scorpion Pass, continue on to Zin and go south of Kadesh Barnea. Then it will go to Hazar Addar and over to Azmon,

5 where it will turn, join the Wadi of Egypt and end at the Mediterranean Sea.

6 “ ‘Your western boundary will be the coast of the Mediterranean Sea. This will be your boundary on the west.

7 “ ‘For your northern boundary, run a line from the Mediterranean Sea to Mount Hor

8 and from Mount Hor to Lebo Hamath. Then the boundary will go to Zedad,

9 continue to Ziphron and end at Hazar Enan. This will be your boundary on the north.

10 “ ‘For your eastern boundary, run a line from Hazar Enan to Shepham.

11 The boundary will go down from Shepham to Riblah on the east side of Ain and continue along the slopes east of the Sea of Galilee.

12 Then the boundary will go down along the Jordan and end at the Dead Sea. “ ‘This will be your land, with its boundaries on every side.’ ”

13 Moses commanded the Israelites: “Assign this land by lot as an inheritance. The LORD has ordered that it be given to the nine-and-a-half tribes,

14 because the families of the tribe of Reuben, the tribe of Gad and the half-tribe of Manasseh have received their inheritance.

15 These two-and-a-half tribes have received their inheritance east of the Jordan across from Jericho, toward the sunrise.”

16 The LORD said to Moses,

17 “These are the names of the men who are to assign the land for you as an inheritance: Eleazar the priest and Joshua son of Nun.

18 And appoint one leader from each tribe to help assign the land.

19 These are their names: Caleb son of Jephunneh, from the tribe of Judah;

20 Shemuel son of Ammihud, from the tribe of Simeon;

21 Elidad son of Kislon, from the tribe of Benjamin;

22 Bukki son of Jogli, the leader from the tribe of Dan;

23 Hanniel son of Ephod, the leader from the tribe of Manasseh son of Joseph;

24 Kemuel son of Shiphtan, the leader from the tribe of Ephraim son of Joseph;

25 Elizaphan son of Parnak, the leader from the tribe of Zebulun;

26 Paltiel son of Azzan, the leader from the tribe of Issachar;

27 Ahihud son of Shelomi, the leader from the tribe of Asher;

28 Pedahel son of Ammihud, the leader from the tribe of Naphtali.”

29 These are the men the LORD commanded to assign the inheritance to the Israelites in the land of Canaan.
