The limits of Chanaan; with
the names of the men that
shall make the division of it.
1 And the Lord spoke to
Moses, saying:
2 Command the children
of Israel, and thou shalt say
to them: When you are entred
into the land of Chanaan, and
it shall be fallen unto your
possession by lot, it shall be
bounded by these limits:
3 The south-side shall begin
from the wilderness of Sin,
which is by Edom: and shall
have note the most salt sea for
its furthest limits eastward.
4 Which limits shall go
round on the south side by the
ascent of note the Scorpion, and
so into Senna, and reach toward
the south as far as Cadesbarne,
from whence the
frontiers shall go out to the
town called Adar, and shall
reach as far as Asemona.
5 And the limits shall fetch
a compass from Asemona to
the torrent of Egypt, and
shall end in the shore of the
note great sea.
6 And the west-side shall begin
from the great sea, and
the same shall be the end
thereof.
7 But toward the north-side
the borders shall begin
from the great sea, reaching
to note the most high mountain,
8 From which they shall
come to Emath as far as the
borders of Sedada:
9 And the limits shall go
as far as Zephrona, and the
village of Enan. These shall
be the borders on the north
side.
10 From thence they shall
-- --
mark out the bounds towards
the eastside from the village
of Enan unto Sephama,
11 And from Sephama the
bounds shall go down to Rebla
over-against the fountain of
Daphnis: from thence they
shall come eastward to the
sea note of Cenereth,
12 And shall reach as far
as the Jordan, and at the last
shall be closed in by the most
salt sea. This shall be your
land with its borders round
about.
13 And Moses commanded
the children of Israel, saying:
This shall be the land, which
you shall possess by lot, and
which the Lord hath commanded
to be given to the
nine tribes, and to the half tribe.
14 For the tribe of the
children of Ruben by their
families, and the tribe of the
children of Gad according to
the number of their kindreds,
and half of the tribe of Manasses,
15 That is two tribes and
a half, have received their portion
beyond the Jordan over-against
Jericho at the east side.
16 And the Lord said to
Moses:
17 These are the names of
the men, that shall divide the
land unto you, Eleazar the
priest, and Josue the son of
Nun,
18 And one prince of every
tribe.
19 Whose names are these:
Of the tribe of Juda, Caleb
the son of Jephone.
20 Of the tribe of Simeon,
Samuel the son of Ammiud.
21 Of the tribe of Benjamin
Elidad the son of Chaselon.
22 Of the tribe of the
children of Dan, Bocci the
son of Jogli.
23 Of the children of Joseph
of the tribe of Manasses,
Haniel the son of Ephod.
24 Of the tribe of Ephraim,
Camuel the son of Sephthan.
25 Of the tribe of Zabulon,
Elisaphan the son of
Pharnach.
26 Of the tribe of Issachar,
Phaltiel the prince the
son of Ozan.
27 Of the tribe of Aser,

28 Of the tribe of Nephthali:

29 These are they whom
the Lord hath commanded to
divide the land of Chanaan
to the children of Israel.
