(Genesis 15:8–21)

1Then the LORDH3068 saidH1696 toH413 MosesH4872H559, 2“CommandH6680 the IsraelitesH1121H3478 and sayH559 to themH413: WhenH3588 youH859 enterH935H413 the landH776 of CanaanH3667H2063, itH776 will be allottedH5307 to you as an inheritanceH5159H776H3667 with these boundariesH1367:

3Your southernH5045 borderH6285 will extendH1961 from the WildernessH4057 of ZinH6790 alongH5921 the borderH3027 of EdomH123. On the eastH6924, your southernH5045 borderH1366 will runH1961 from the endH7097 of the SaltH4417 SeaH3220,1 4crossH5437 southH5045 of the AscentH4610 of AkrabbimH4610,2 continueH5674 to ZinH6790, and goH1961H8444 southH5045 of Kadesh-barneaH6947. Then it will go onH3318 to Hazar-addarH2692 and proceedH5674 to AzmonH6111, 5whereH1366 it will turnH5437 from AzmonH6111, join the BrookH5158 of EgyptH4714, and endH1961H8444 at the SeaH3220.3 6Your westernH3220 borderH1366 will beH1961 the coastlineH1366 of the GreatH1419 SeaH3220; thisH2088 will beH1961 your boundaryH1366 on the westH3220. 7Your northernH6828 borderH1366 will runH1961 fromH4480 the GreatH1419 SeaH3220 directlyH8376 to MountH2022 HorH2023, 8and from MountH2022 HorH2023 to Lebo-hamathH935H2574, then extendH1961H8444 to ZedadH6657, 9continueH3318 to ZiphronH2202, and endH1961H8444 at Hazar-enanH2704. ThisH2088 will beH1961 your boundaryH1366 on the northH6828. 10And your easternH6924 borderH1366 will run straightH183 from Hazar-enanH2704 to ShephamH8221, 11then go downH3381 from ShephamH8221 to RiblahH7247 on the east sideH6924 of AinH5871 and continue alongH3381 the slopesH3802 eastH6924 of the SeaH3220 of ChinnerethH3672.4 12Then the borderH1366 will go downH3381 along the JordanH3383 and endH1961H8444 at the SaltH4417 SeaH3220.

ThisH2063 will beH1961 your landH776, defined by its bordersH1367 on all sidesH5439.”

13So MosesH4872 commandedH6680 the IsraelitesH1121H3478H559, “Apportion thisH2063 landH776 by lotH1486 as an inheritanceH5157. The LORDH3068 has commanded thatH6680 it be givenH5414 to the nineH8672 and a halfH2677H4294 tribesH4294. 14ForH3588 the tribesH4294 of the ReubenitesH1121H7206 and GaditesH1121H1425H1004H1, along with the half-tribeH2677H4294 of ManassehH4519, have already receivedH3947 their inheritanceH5159. 15These twoH8147 and a halfH2677H4294 tribesH4294 have receivedH3947 their inheritanceH5159 acrossH5676 the JordanH3383 from JerichoH3405, toward the sunriseH6924H4217.”

16Then the LORDH3068 saidH1696 toH413 MosesH4872H559, 17“TheseH428 are the namesH8034 of the menH582 whoH834 are to assign the landH776 as an inheritanceH5157 for you: EleazarH499 the priestH3548 and JoshuaH3091 sonH1121 of NunH5126. 18AppointH3947 oneH259H5387 leaderH5387 from eachH259 tribeH4294 to distributeH5157 the landH776. 19TheseH428 are their namesH8034H582:

CalebH3612 sonH1121 of JephunnehH3312 from the tribeH4294 of JudahH3063; 20ShemuelH8050 sonH1121 of AmmihudH5989 from the tribeH4294 of SimeonH8095; 21ElidadH449 sonH1121 of ChislonH3692 from the tribeH4294 of BenjaminH1144; 22BukkiH1231 sonH1121 of JogliH3020, a leaderH5387 from the tribeH4294 of DanH1835; 23HannielH2592 sonH1121 of EphodH641, a leaderH5387 from the tribeH4294 of ManassehH1121H4519 sonH1121 of JosephH3130; 24KemuelH7055 sonH1121 of ShiphtanH8204, a leaderH5387 from the tribeH4294 of EphraimH669; 25Eli-zaphanH469 sonH1121 of ParnachH6535, a leaderH5387 from the tribeH4294 of ZebulunH2074; 26PaltielH6409 sonH1121 of AzzanH5821, a leaderH5387 from the tribeH4294 of IssacharH3485; 27AhihudH282 sonH1121 of ShelomiH8015, a leaderH5387 from the tribeH4294 of AsherH836; 28and PedahelH6300 sonH1121 of AmmihudH5989, a leaderH5387 from the tribeH4294 of NaphtaliH5321.”

29TheseH428 are the ones whomH834 the LORDH3068 commandedH6680 to apportion the inheritanceH5157 to the IsraelitesH1121H3478 in the landH776 of CanaanH3667.
