1 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,

2 Command the children of Israel, and say unto them, When ye come into the land of Canaan, this shall be the land that shall fall to you for an inheritance, the land of Canaan according to the borders thereof.

3 Then your south side shall be from the wilderness of Zin alongside of Edom, and your southern border shall be from the end of the salt sea eastward;

5 And the border shall turn from Azmon unto the torrent of Egypt, and shall end at the sea.
