✧1Then the LORD said to Moses, ✧2“Command the Israelites and say to them: When you enter the land of Canaan, it will be allotted to you as an inheritance with these boundaries: ✧3Your southern border will extend from the Wilderness of Zin along the border of Edom. On the east, your southern border will run from the end of the Salt Sea, ✧4cross south of the Ascent of Akrabbim, continue to Zin, and go south of Kadesh-barnea. Then it will go on to Hazar-addar and proceed to Azmon, ✧5where it will turn from Azmon, join the Brook of Egypt, and end at the Sea. ✧6Your western border will be the coastline of the Great Sea; this will be your boundary on the west. ✧7Your northern border will run from the Great Sea directly to Mount Hor, ✧8and from Mount Hor to Lebo-hamath, then extend to Zedad,

✧9continue to Ziphron, and end at Hazar-enan. This will be your boundary on the north.
✧10And your eastern border will run straight from Hazar-enan to Shepham,
✧11then go down from Shepham to Riblah on the east side of Ain and continue along the slopes east of the Sea of Chinnereth.
✧12Then the border will go down along the Jordan and end at the Salt Sea. This will be your land, defined by its borders on all sides.”
✧13So Moses commanded the Israelites, “Apportion this land by lot as an inheritance. The LORD has commanded that it be given to the nine and a half tribes.
✧14For the tribes of the Reubenites and Gadites, along with the half-tribe of Manasseh, have already received their inheritance.
✧15These two and a half tribes have received their inheritance across the Jordan from Jericho, toward the sunrise.”
