Numbers 34:16-29

16The Lord said to Moses,

17“These are the names of the men who will divide the land for you: the priest Eleazar and Joshua, son of Nun.

18You must also take one leader from each tribe to divide the land.

19These are their names: Caleb, son of Jephunneh, from the tribe of Judah;

20Shemuel, son of Ammihud, from the tribe of Simeon;

21Elidad, son of Kislon, from the tribe of Benjamin;

22Bukki, son of Jogli, the leader of the tribe of Dan;

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

24Kemuel, son of Shiphtan, the leader of the tribe of Ephraim; (Manasseh and Ephraim are Joseph’s descendants.)

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

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

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

28Pedahel, son of Ammihud, the leader of the tribe of Naphtali.”

29These are the men the Lord commanded to divide Canaan for the Israelites.
