Instruction for Apportioning Canaan |
|
|
 |
| Numbers 34:1 |
|
Then the LORD spoke to Moses, saying, |
|
|
|
|
| Numbers 34:2 |
|
"Command the sons of Israel and say to them,
'When you enter the land of Canaan, this is the land that shall fall to you as
an inheritance, even the land of Canaan according to its borders. |
| |
|
|
| Numbers 34:3 |
|
Your southern sector shall extend from the wilderness
of Zin along the side of Edom, and your southern border shall extend from the
end of the Salt Sea eastward. |
| |
|
|
| Numbers 34:4 |
|
Then your border shall turn direction from the
south to the ascent of Akrabbim and continue to Zin, and its termination shall
be to the south of Kadesh-barnea; and it shall reach Hazaraddar and continue to
Azmon. |
| |
|
|
| Numbers 34:5 |
|
The border shall turn direction from Azmon to
the brook of Egypt, and its termination shall be at the sea. |
| |
|
|
| Numbers 34:6 |
|
'As for the western border, you shall have
the Great Sea, that is, its coastline; this shall be your west border. |
| |
|
|
| Numbers 34:7 |
|
'And this shall be your north border: you shall
draw your border line from the Great Sea to Mount Hor. |
|
|
|
| Numbers 34:8 |
|
You shall draw a line from Mount Hor to the
Lebo-hamath, and the termination of the border shall be at Zedad; |
|
|
|
| Numbers 34:9 |
|
and the border shall proceed to Ziphron, and
its termination shall be at Hazar-enan. This shall be your north border. |
|
|
|
| Numbers 34:10 |
|
'For your eastern border you shall also draw
a line from Hazar-enan to Shepham, |
|
|
|
| Numbers 34:11 |
|
and the border shall go down from Shepham to
Riblah on the east side of Ain; and the border shall go down and reach to the
slope on the east side of the Sea of Chinnereth. |
|
|
|
| Numbers 34:12 |
|
And the border shall go down to the Jordan and
its termination shall be at the Salt Sea. This shall be your land according to
its borders all around.'" |
|
|
|
| Numbers 34:13 |
|
So Moses commanded the sons of Israel, saying,
"This is the land that you are to apportion by lot among you as a possession,
which the LORD has commanded to give to the nine and a half tribes. |
|
|
|
| Numbers 34:14 |
|
For the tribe of the sons of Reuben have received
theirs according to their fathers' households, and the tribe of the sons of Gad
according to their fathers' households, and the half-tribe of Manasseh have received
their possession. |
|
|
|
| Numbers 34:15 |
|
The two and a half tribes have received their
possession across the Jordan opposite Jericho, eastward toward the sunrising." |
|
|
|
| Numbers 34:16 |
|
Then the LORD spoke to Moses, saying, |
|
|
|
| Numbers 34:17 |
|
"These are the names of the men who shall apportion
the land to you for inheritance: Eleazar the priest and Joshua the son of Nun. |
|
|
|
| Numbers 34:18 |
|
You shall take one leader of every tribe to
apportion the land for inheritance. |
|
|
|
| Numbers 34:19 |
|
These are the names of the men: of the tribe
of Judah, Caleb the son of Jephunneh. |
| |
|
|
| Numbers 34:20 |
|
Of the tribe of the sons of Simeon, Samuel the
son of Ammihud. |
| |
|
|
| Numbers 34:21 |
|
Of the tribe of Benjamin, Elidad the son of
Chislon. |
|
|
|
|
| Numbers 34:22 |
|
Of the tribe of the sons of Dan a leader, Bukki
the son of Jogli. |
|
|
|
|
| Numbers 34:23 |
|
Of the sons of Joseph: of the tribe of the sons
of Manasseh a leader, Hanniel the son of Ephod. |
|
|
|
|
| Numbers 34:24 |
|
Of the tribe of the sons of Ephraim a leader,
Kemuel the son of Shiphtan. |
|
|
|
|
| Numbers 34:25 |
|
Of the tribe of the sons of Zebulun a leader,
Elizaphan the son of Parnach. |
|
|
|
|
| Numbers 34:26 |
|
Of the tribe of the sons of Issachar a leader,
Paltiel the son of Azzan. |
|
|
|
|
| Numbers 34:27 |
|
Of the tribe of the sons of Asher a leader,
Ahihud the son of Shelomi. |
|
|
|
|
| Numbers 34:28 |
|
Of the tribe of the sons of Naphtali a leader,
Pedahel the son of Ammihud." |
|
|
|
|
| Numbers 34:29 |
|
These are those whom the LORD commanded to apportion
the inheritance to the sons of Israel in the land of Canaan. |
