Numbers 34:7-29

7‘And this shall be your northern border: From the Great Sea you shall mark out your border line to Mount Hor;

8from Mount Hor you shall mark out your border to the entrance of Hamath; then the direction of the border shall be toward Zedad;

9the border shall proceed to Ziphron, and it shall end at Hazar Enan. This shall be your northern border.

10‘You shall mark out your eastern border from Hazar Enan to Shepham;

11the border shall go down from Shepham to Riblah on the east side of Ain; the border shall go down and reach to the eastern side of the Sea of Chinnereth;

12the border shall go down along the Jordan, and it shall end at the Salt Sea. This shall be your land with its surrounding boundaries.’ ”

13Then Moses commanded the children of Israel, saying: “This is the land which you shall inherit by lot, which the Lord has commanded to give to the nine tribes and to the half-tribe.

14For the tribe of the children of Reuben according to the house of their fathers, and the tribe of the children of Gad according to the house of their fathers, have received their inheritance; and the half-tribe of Manasseh has received its inheritance.

15The two tribes and the half-tribe have received their inheritance on this side of the Jordan, across from Jericho eastward, toward the sunrise.”

16And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,

17“These are the names of the men who shall divide the land among you as an inheritance: Eleazar the priest and Joshua the son of Nun.

18And you shall take one leader of every tribe to divide the land for the inheritance.

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

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

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

22a leader from the tribe of the children of Dan, Bukki the son of Jogli;

23from the sons of Joseph: a leader from the tribe of the children of Manasseh, Hanniel the son of Ephod,

24and a leader from the tribe of the children of Ephraim, Kemuel the son of Shiphtan;

25a leader from the tribe of the children of Zebulun, Elizaphan the son of Parnach;

26a leader from the tribe of the children of Issachar, Paltiel the son of Azzan;

27a leader from the tribe of the children of Asher, Ahihud the son of Shelomi;

28and a leader from the tribe of the children of Naphtali, Pedahel the son of Ammihud.”

29These are the ones the Lord commanded to divide the inheritance among the children of Israel in the land of Canaan.
