1Then the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,1The LORD spoke to Moses, "
2“Command the children of Israel, and say to them: ‘When you come into the land of Canaan, this is the land that shall fall to you as an inheritance—the land of Canaan to its boundaries.2Command the Israelites and say to them: When you enter the land of Canaan, it will be allotted to you as an inheritance with these borders:
3Your southern border shall be from the Wilderness of Zin along the border of Edom; then your southern border shall extend eastward to the end of the Salt Sea;3Your southern side will be from the Wilderness of Zin along the boundary of Edom. Your southern border on the east will begin at the east end of the Dead Sea.
4your border shall turn from the southern side of the Ascent of Akrabbim, continue to Zin, and be on the south of Kadesh Barnea; then it shall go on to Hazar Addar, and continue to Azmon;4Your border will turn south of the Ascent of Akrabbim, proceed to Zin, and end south of Kadesh-barnea. It will go to Hazar-addar and proceed to Azmon.
5the border shall turn from Azmon to the Brook of Egypt, and it shall end at the Sea.5The border will turn from Azmon to the Brook of Egypt, where it will end at the Mediterranean Sea.
6‘As for the western border, you shall have the Great Sea for a border; this shall be your western border.6Your western border will be the coastline of the Mediterranean Sea; this will be your western border.
7‘And this shall be your northern border: From the Great Sea you shall mark out your border line to Mount Hor;7This will be your northern border: From the Mediterranean Sea draw a 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;8from Mount Hor draw a line to the entrance of Hamath, and the border will reach Zedad.
9the border shall proceed to Ziphron, and it shall end at Hazar Enan. This shall be your northern border.9Then the border will go to Ziphron and end at Hazar-enan. This will be your northern border.
10‘You shall mark out your eastern border from Hazar Enan to Shepham;10For your eastern border, draw a line 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;11The border will go down from Shepham to Riblah east of Ain. It will continue down and reach the eastern slope 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.’ ”12Then the border will go down to the Jordan and end at the Dead Sea. This will be your land defined by its borders on all sides."
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.13So Moses commanded the Israelites, "This is the land you are to receive by lot as an inheritance, which the LORD commanded to be given to the nine and a half tribes.
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.14For the tribe of the Reubenites and the tribe of the Gadites have received their inheritance according to their ancestral houses, and half the 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.”15The two and a half tribes have received their inheritance across the Jordan from Jericho, eastward toward the sunrise."
16And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,16The LORD spoke to Moses, "
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.17These are the names of the men who are to distribute the land as an inheritance for you: Eleazar the priest and Joshua son of Nun.
18And you shall take one leader of every tribe to divide the land for the inheritance.18Take one leader from each tribe to distribute the land.
19These are the names of the men: from the tribe of Judah, Caleb the son of Jephunneh;19These are the names of the men: Caleb son of Jephunneh from the tribe of Judah;

23from the sons of Joseph: a leader from the tribe of the children of Manasseh, Hanniel the son of Ephod,23from the sons of Joseph: Hanniel son of Ephod, a leader from the tribe of Manasseh,
24and a leader from the tribe of the children of Ephraim, Kemuel the son of Shiphtan;24Kemuel son of Shiphtan, a leader from the tribe of Ephraim;
25a leader from the tribe of the children of Zebulun, Elizaphan the son of Parnach;25Eli-zaphan son of Parnach, a leader from the tribe of Zebulun;
