Numbers 34:1-29 GW
[1] The LORD said to Moses, [2] "Give the Israelites these instructions. When you enter Canaan, the land that will be given to you as your inheritance has these borders: [3] "The southern side includes part of the Desert of Zin along the border of Edom. In the east the southern border starts from the end of the Dead Sea [4] and turns south of the Akrabbim Pass. It then goes past Zin and ends at Kadesh Barnea. From there it goes to Hazar Addar and on to Azmon. [5] From Azmon it turns toward the River of Egypt so that the border ends at the Mediterranean Sea. [6] "The western border is the coastline of the Mediterranean Sea. [7] "The northern border extends from the Mediterranean Sea to Mount Hor, [8] and from Mount Hor to the border of Hamath so that it ends at Zedad. [9] From there the border goes to Ziphron and ends at Hazar Enan. [10] "The eastern border extends from Hazar Enan to Shepham. [11] From Shepham the border goes down to Riblah, east of Ain, and continues along the eastern slope of the Sea of Galilee. [12] Then the border goes along the Jordan River so that it ends at the Dead Sea. "This will be your land and the borders around it." [13] Moses commanded the Israelites, "This is the land you will divide by drawing lots. The LORD has commanded that this land will be given to the nine-and-a-half tribes. [14] The households from the tribes of Reuben, Gad, and half of the tribe of Manasseh have already received their land. [15] Those two-and-a-half tribes received land east of the Jordan River across from Jericho." [16] The 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. [18] You must also take one leader from each tribe to divide the land. [19] These are their names: Caleb, son of Jephunneh, from the tribe of Judah; [20] Shemuel, son of Ammihud, from the tribe of Simeon; [21] Elidad, son of Kislon, from the tribe of Benjamin; [22] Bukki, son of Jogli, the leader of the tribe of Dan; [23] Hanniel, son of Ephod, the leader of the tribe of Manasseh; [24] Kemuel, son of Shiphtan, the leader of the tribe of Ephraim; (Manasseh and Ephraim are Joseph's descendants.) [25] Elizaphan, son of Parnach, the leader of the tribe of Zebulun; [26] Paltiel, son of Azzan, the leader of the tribe of Issachar; [27] Ahihud, son of Shelomi, the leader of the tribe of Asher; [28] Pedahel, son of Ammihud, the leader of the tribe of Naphtali." [29] These are the men the LORD commanded to divide Canaan for the Israelites.
