Numbers 34

The Message Bible MSG

1 God spoke to Moses:

2 "Command the People of Israel. Tell them: When you enter Canaan, these are the borders of the land you are getting as an inheritance:

3 "Your southern border will take in some of the Wilderness of Zin where it touches Edom. It starts in the east at the Dead Sea,

4 curves south of Scorpion Pass and on to Zin, continues south of Kadesh Barnea, then to Hazar Addar and on to Azmon,

5 where it takes a turn to the northwest to the Brook of Egypt and on to the Mediterranean Sea.

6 "Your western border will be the Mediterranean Sea.

7 "Your northern border runs on a line from the Mediterranean Sea to Mount Hor,

8 and from Mount Hor to Lebo Hamath, connects to Zedad,

9 continues to Ziphron, and ends at Hazar Enan. This is your northern border.

10 "Your eastern border runs on a line from Hazar Enan to Shepham.

11 The border goes south from Shepham to Riblah to the east of Ain, and continues along the slopes east of the Sea of Galilee.

12 The border then follows the Jordan River and ends at the Dead Sea. "This is your land with its four borders."

13 Moses then commanded the People of Israel: "This is the land: Divide up the inheritance by lot. God has ordered it to be given to the nine and a half tribes.

14 The tribe of Reuben, the tribe of Gad, and the half-tribe of Manasseh have already received their inheritance;

15 the two tribes and the half-tribe got their inheritance east of Jordan-Jericho, facing the sunrise."

16 God spoke to Moses:

17 "These are the men who will be in charge of distributing the inheritance of the land: Eleazar the priest and Joshua son of Nun.

18 Assign one leader from each tribe to help them in distributing the land.

19 Assign these: 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, leader from the tribe of Dan;

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

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

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

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

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

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

29 These are the men God commanded to hand out the assignments of land-inheritance to the People of Israel in the country of Canaan.

New Living Translation NLT

1 Then the LORD said to Moses,

2 “Give these instructions to the Israelites: When you come into the land of Canaan, which I am giving you as your special possession, these will be the boundaries.

3 The southern portion of your country will extend from the wilderness of Zin, along the edge of Edom. The southern boundary will begin on the east at the Dead Sea.

4 It will then run south past Scorpion Pass in the direction of Zin. Its southernmost point will be Kadesh-barnea, from which it will go to Hazar-addar, and on to Azmon.

5 From Azmon the boundary will turn toward the Brook of Egypt and end at the Mediterranean Sea.

6 “Your western boundary will be the coastline of the Mediterranean Sea.

7 “Your northern boundary will begin at the Mediterranean Sea and run east to Mount Hor,

8 then to Lebo-hamath, and on through Zedad

9 and Ziphron to Hazar-enan. This will be your northern boundary.

10 “The eastern boundary will start at Hazar-enan and run south to Shepham,

11 then down to Riblah on the east side of Ain. From there the boundary will run down along the eastern edge of the Sea of Galilee,

12 and then along the Jordan River to the Dead Sea. These are the boundaries of your land.”

13 Then Moses told the Israelites, “This territory is the homeland you are to divide among yourselves by sacred lot. The LORD has commanded that the land be divided among the nine and a half remaining tribes.

14 The families of the tribes of Reuben, Gad, and half the tribe of Manasseh have already received their grants of land

15 on the east side of the Jordan River, across from Jericho toward the sunrise.”

16 And the LORD said to Moses,

17 “Eleazar the priest and Joshua son of Nun are the men designated to divide the grants of land among the people.

18 Enlist one leader from each tribe to help them with the task.

19 These are the tribes and the names of the leaders: Tribe Leader Judah Caleb son of Jephunneh

20 Simeon Shemuel son of Ammihud

21 Benjamin Elidad son of Kislon

22 Dan Bukki son of Jogli

23 Manasseh son of Joseph Hanniel son of Ephod

24 Ephraim son of Joseph Kemuel son of Shiphtan

25 Zebulun Elizaphan son of Parnach

26 Issachar Paltiel son of Azzan

27 Asher Ahihud son of Shelomi

28 Naphtali Pedahel son of Ammihud

29 These are the men the LORD has appointed to divide the grants of land in Canaan among the Israelites.”
