'And this shall be your north border: you shall draw your _border_ line from the Great Sea to Mount Hor.

You shall draw a line from Mount Hor to Lebo-hamath, and the termination of the border shall be at Zedad;

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,
|
|
|

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.

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.'"
