34:1  Then the Lord said to Moses,
34:2  “Tell the people of Israel, ‘When you go into the land of Canaan, this is the land that will be given to you, all the land of Canaan.
34:3  Your south side will be from the Desert of Zin along the side of Edom. It will go east from the end of the Salt Sea.
34:4  Then the side of your land will turn from the south up to the pass of Akrabbim and on to Zin. Its end will be south of Kadesh-barnea. It will go to Hazaraddar and on to Azmon.
34:5  Then it will turn from Azmon to the river of Egypt, and will end at the sea.
34:6  ‘The west side of your land will be the shore of the Great Sea.
34:7  ‘Your north side will be from the Great Sea to Mount Hor.
34:8  And it will go from Mount Hor to the Lebohamath, and end at Zedad.
34:9  Then it will go to Ziphron and end at Hazer-enan. This will be the north side.
34:10  ‘The east side of your land will be from Hazer-enan to Shepham,
34:11  then down from Shepham to Riblah on the east side of Ain. Then it will go down to the hill on the east side of the Sea of Chinnereth.
34:12  It will go down to the Jordan and end at the Salt Sea. This will be the sides all around your land.’”
34:13  Moses told the people of Israel, “This is the land you will receive by drawing names, which the Lord has said should be given to the nine and a half-family groups.
34:14  For the sons of Reuben have received their land by their fathers’ houses. The sons of Gad have received theirs by their fathers’ houses. And the half-family group of Manasseh has received their land.
34:15  The two and a half-family groups have received their land on the other side of the Jordan from Jericho, toward the east.”
34:16  The Lord said to Moses,
34:17  “Eleazar the religious leader and Joshua the son of Nun are the men who will divide the land to be given to you.
34:18  And take one leader of every family group to divide the land among you.
34:19  These are the names of the men. Take Caleb the son of Jephunneh of the family group of Judah.
34:20  Take Samuel the son of Ammihud of the family group of the sons of Simeon.
34:21  Take Elidad the son of Chislon of the family group of Benjamin.
34:22  Take Bukki the son of Jogli as the leader of the family group of the sons of Dan.
34:23  Of the sons of Joseph, take Hanniel the son of Ephod as the leader of the family group of the sons of Manasseh.
34:24  Take Kemuel the son of Shiphtan as the leader of the family group of the sons of Ephraim.
34:25  Take Elizaphan the son of Parnach as the leader of the family group of the sons of Zebulun.
34:26  Take Paltiel the son of Azzan as the leader of the family group of the sons of Issachar.
34:27  Take Ahihud the son of Shelomi as the leader of the family group of the sons of Asher.
34:28  And take Pedahel the son of Ammihud as the leader of the family group of the sons of Naphtali.”
34:29  These are the men whom the Lord told to divide the land among the people of Israel in the land of Canaan.
