34:1  Adonai spoke to Moses saying,
34:2  “Command Bnei-Yisrael and say to them: When you enter the land of Canaan, these are the boundaries of the land being allotted to you as an inheritance.
34:3  Your southern side will run from the wilderness of Zin along the border of Edom to the southern end of the Dead Sea on the east.
34:4  Your border will cross south of the Scorpion Pass and continue to Zin and south of Kadesh-barnea, then go on to Hazar-addar and on to Azmon.
34:5  Then the border will turn from Azmon to the Wadi of Egypt and end at the sea.
34:6  “Your western boundary will be the coast of the Great Sea. This will be your western border.
34:7  “Your northern boundary will be by running a line from the Great Sea to Mount Hor,
34:8  then from Mount Hor to Levo-Hamath, then the boundary will go to Zedad.
34:9  The border will continue on to Ziphron, ending at Hazar-Enan. This will be your northern border.
34:10  “For your eastern border, run a line from Hazar-Enan to Shepham.
34:11  From Shepham, the boundary will descend to Riblah on the east side of Ain, continuing along the eastern slopes of Kinneret.
34:12  From there the border will go down along the Jordan, ending at the Dead Sea. This will be your territory with its surrounding borders.”
34:13  Moses commanded Bnei-Yisrael, saying, “This is the land which Adonai has commanded that you are to assign by lot to the nine and a half tribes.
34:14  For the tribe of the sons of Reuben by their ancestral houses, the tribe of the sons of Gad by their ancestral houses, and the half-tribe of Manasseh have already received their inheritance.
34:15  These two and a half tribes have received their inheritance on the east side of the Jordan at Jericho, toward the sunrise.”
34:16  Adonai spoke to Moses saying,
34:17  “These are the names of the men who will allot the land to you: Eleazar the kohen and Joshua son of Nun.
34:18  Also you are to select one prince from each tribe to allot the land.
34:19  These are their names: from the tribe of Judah, Caleb son of Jephunneh.
34:20  From the tribe of the sons of Simeon, Shemuel son of Ammihud.
34:21  From the tribe of Benjamin, Elidad son of Chislon.
34:22  From the tribe of the sons of Dan, the prince is Bukki son of Jogli.
34:23  From the sons of Joseph, from the tribe of the sons of Manasseh, the prince is to be Hanniel son of Ephod.
34:24  The prince from the tribe of the sons of Ephraim is to be Kemuel son of Shiphtan.
34:25  “The prince from the tribe of the sons of Zebulun is Elizaphan son of Parnach.
34:26  The prince from the tribe of the sons of Issachar is Paltiel son of Azzan.
34:27  The prince from the tribe of the sons of Asher is Ahihud son of Shelomi.
34:28  The prince from the tribe of the sons of Naphtali is Pedahel son of Ammihud.”
34:29  These were those Adonai commanded to apportion to Bnei-Yisrael the land of Canaan.
