## Apportioning Canaan
###### 1
Then Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
###### 2
"Command the sons of Israel and say to them, 'When you enter the land of Canaan, this is the land that shall fall to you as an inheritance, _even the_ land of Canaan according to its borders.
###### 3
And your southern sector shall extend from the wilderness of Zin along the side of Edom, and your southern border shall extend from the end of the Salt Sea eastward.
###### 4
Then your border shall turn from the south to the ascent of Akrabbim and continue to Zin, and its termination shall be to the south of Kadesh-barnea; and it shall reach Hazaraddar and continue to Azmon.
###### 5
And the border shall turn from Azmon to the brook of Egypt, and its termination shall be at the sea.
###### 6
'And as for the west border, you shall have the Great Sea, that is, _its_ coastline; this shall be your west border.
###### 7
'And this shall be your north border: you shall draw your _border_ line from the Great Sea to Mount Hor.
###### 8
You shall draw a line from Mount Hor to Lebo-hamath, and the termination of the border shall be at Zedad;
###### 9
and the border shall proceed to Ziphron, and its termination shall be at Hazar-enan. This shall be your north border.
###### 10
'For your east border you shall also draw a line from Hazar-enan to Shepham,
###### 11
and the border shall go down from Shepham to Riblah on the east side of Ain; and the border shall go down and reach to the slope on the east side of the Sea of Chinnereth.
###### 12
And the border shall go down to the Jordan, and its termination shall be at the Salt Sea. This shall be your land according to its borders all around.'"
###### 13
So Moses commanded the sons of Israel, saying, "This is the land that you shall inherit by lot among you as a possession, which Yahweh has commanded to give to the nine and a half tribes.
###### 14
For the tribe of the sons of Reuben have received _theirs_ according to their fathers' households, and the tribe of the sons of Gad according to their fathers' households, and the half-tribe of Manasseh have received their inheritance.
###### 15
The two and a half tribes have received their inheritance across the Jordan opposite Jericho to the east toward the sunrise."
###### 16
Then Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
###### 17
"These are the names of the men who shall apportion the land to you for inheritance: Eleazar the priest and Joshua the son of Nun.
###### 18
And you shall take one leader of every tribe to apportion the land for inheritance.
###### 19
Now these are the names of the men: of the tribe of Judah, Caleb the son of Jephunneh.
###### 20
Of the tribe of the sons of Simeon, Samuel the son of Ammihud.
###### 21
Of the tribe of Benjamin, Elidad the son of Chislon.
###### 22
Of the tribe of the sons of Dan a leader, Bukki the son of Jogli.
###### 23
Of the sons of Joseph: of the tribe of the sons of Manasseh a leader, Hanniel the son of Ephod.
###### 24
Of the tribe of the sons of Ephraim a leader, Kemuel the son of Shiphtan.
###### 25
Of the tribe of the sons of Zebulun a leader, Elizaphan the son of Parnach.
###### 26
Of the tribe of the sons of Issachar a leader, Paltiel the son of Azzan.
###### 27
Of the tribe of the sons of Asher a leader, Ahihud the son of Shelomi.
###### 28
Of the tribe of the sons of Naphtali a leader, Pedahel the son of Ammihud."
###### 29
These are those whom Yahweh commanded to apportion the inheritance to the sons of Israel in the land of Canaan.
