| 1[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 1The LORD spoke to Moses, |
| 2[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 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 borders: |
| 3[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 3Your southern side will be from the Wilderness of Zin along the boundary of Edom. Your southern border on the east will begin at the east end of the Dead Sea. |
| 4[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 4Your border will turn south of the Scorpions' Ascent, proceed to Zin, and end south of Kadesh-barnea. It will go to Hazar-addar and proceed to Azmon. |
| 5[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 5The border will turn from Azmon to the Brook of Egypt, where it will end at the Mediterranean Sea. |
| 6[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 6Your western border will be the coastline of the Mediterranean Sea; this will be your western border. |
| 7[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 7This will be your northern border: From the Mediterranean Sea draw a line to Mount Hor; |
| 8[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 8from Mount Hor draw a line to the entrance of Hamath, and the border will reach Zedad. |
| 9[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 9Then the border will go to Ziphron and end at Hazar-enan. This will be your northern border. |
| 10[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 10For your eastern border, draw a line from Hazar-enan to Shepham. |
| 11[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 11The border will go down from Shepham to Riblah east of Ain. It will continue down and reach the eastern slope of the Sea of Chinnereth. |
| 12[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 12Then the border will go down to the Jordan and end at the Dead Sea. This will be your land defined by its borders on all sides." |
| 13[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 13So Moses commanded the Israelites, "This is the land you are to receive by lot as an inheritance, which the LORD commanded to be given to the nine and a half tribes. |
| 14[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 14For the tribe of Reuben's descendants and the tribe of Gad's descendants have received their inheritance according to their ancestral families, and half the tribe of Manasseh has received its inheritance. |
| 15[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 15The two and a half tribes have received their inheritance across the Jordan east of Jericho, toward the sunrise." |
| 16[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 16The LORD spoke to Moses, |
| 17[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 17"These are the names of the men who are to distribute the land as an inheritance for you: the priest Eleazar and Joshua son of Nun. |
| 18[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 18Take one leader from each tribe to distribute the land. |
| 19[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 19These are the names of the men: Caleb son of Jephunneh from the tribe of Judah; |
| 20[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 20Shemuel son of Ammihud from the tribe of Simeon's descendants; |
| 21[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 21Elidad son of Chislon from the tribe of Benjamin; |
| 22[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 22Bukki son of Jogli, a leader from the tribe of Dan's descendants; |
| 23[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 23from the sons of Joseph: Hanniel son of Ephod, a leader from the tribe of Manasseh's descendants, |
| 24[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 24Kemuel son of Shiphtan, a leader from the tribe of Ephraim's descendants; |
| 25[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 25Eli-zaphan son of Parnach, a leader from the tribe of Zebulun's descendants; |
| 26[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 26Paltiel son of Azzan, a leader from the tribe of Issachar's descendants; |
| 27[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 27Ahihud son of Shelomi, a leader from the tribe of Asher's descendants; |
| 28[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 28Pedahel son of Ammihud, a leader from the tribe of Naphtali's descendants." |
| 29[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 29These are the ones the LORD commanded to distribute the inheritance to the Israelites in the land of Canaan. |
