Numbers 34

¹Then the LORD said to Moses,

²“Command the Israelites and say to them: When you enter the land of Canaan, it will be allotted to you as an inheritance with these boundaries:

³Your southern border will extend from the Wilderness of Zin along the border of Edom. On the east, your southern border will run from the end of the Salt Sea,

⁴cross south of the Ascent of Akrabbim, continue to Zin, and go south of Kadesh-barnea. Then it will go on to Hazar-addar and proceed to Azmon,

⁵where it will turn from Azmon, join the Brook of Egypt, and end at the Sea.

⁶Your western border will be the coastline of the Great Sea; this will be your boundary on the west.

⁷Your northern border will run from the Great Sea directly to Mount Hor,

⁸and from Mount Hor to Lebo-hamath, then extend to Zedad,

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

¹⁰And your eastern border will run straight from Hazar-enan to Shepham,

¹¹then go down from Shepham to Riblah on the east side of Ain and continue along the slopes east of the Sea of Chinnereth.

¹²Then the border will go down along the Jordan and end at the Salt Sea. This will be your land, defined by its borders on all sides.”

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