Open English Translation NUM Chapter 34

34 Then Yahweh told Mosheh (Moses), 2 “Tell the people that you’re all about to enter Canaan—the land that will become your inheritance. The boundaries will be:

3 “The southern border will extend from the Tsin wilderness along the Edom border across to the Salt (Dead) Sea on the east, 4 cross south of the Scorpion Pass, continue to Tsin, and go south of Kadesh-Barnea. Then it will go on to Hatsar-Addar and proceed to Atsmon, 5 From Atsmon it will extend west to the riverbed at the border with Egypt, and then across to the Mediterranean Sea.

6 “The western border will be the Mediterranean sea.

7 “The northern border will start at the Mediterranean sea and extend west to Mt. Hor, 8 and then on to Levo-Hamat and onward to Tsedad. 9 From there the border will extend to Zifron, and it will end at Hatsar-Eynan, completing the northern border.

10 “The eastern border will begin at Hatsar-Eynan and extend south to Shefam, 11 then go downhill to Rivlah east of Ayin, then along the hills to the east of Lake Galilee (Heb. Kinneret). 12 Then the border will extend south along the Yarden River and end at the Salt (Dead) Sea.

“Those will be your country’s borders.”

13 Then Mosheh continued, “That will be the land that must be distributed by lot. It’ll be given by Yahweh as an inheritance for the nine tribes and the Menashsheh half-tribe[ref] 14 as the Reuven and Gad tribes and the Menashsheh half-tribe have already received their inheritance. 15 Yes, the other two and a half tribes have taken up their inheritance on the eastern side of the Yarden river across from Yeriho (Jericho).

16 Then Yahweh told Mosheh, 17 “These are the men who will distribute the land: the priest Eleazar and Nun’s son Yehoshua (Joshua), 18 as well as one leader from each tribe to allocate the land that will be their inheritance. 19 Those tribe leaders are:

• From Yehudah (Judah), Yefunneh’s son Kalev (Caleb),
• 20 From Shimeon, Ammihud’s son Shemuel,
• 21 From Benyamin, Kislon’s son Elidad,
• 22 From Dan, Yogli’s son Bukki,
• 23 From Menashsheh, Efod’s son Hanniyel,
• 24 From Efrayim, Shiftan’s son Kemuel,
• 25 From Zevulun, Parnach’s son Elizafan,
• 26 From Yissakar, Azzan’s son Paltiel,
• 27 From Asher, Shelomi’s son Ahihud,
• 28 From Naftali, Ammihud’s son Pedahel.”

29 The above are the men that Yahweh put in charge of dividing up Kanaan as the inheritance for the Israelis.
