Numbers 34:2–12

²“Give the Israelites these instructions. When you enter Canaan, the land that will be given to you as your inheritance has these borders: 

³“The southern side includes part of the Desert of Zin along the border of Edom. In the east the southern border starts from the end of the Dead Sea ⁴and turns south of the Akrabbim Pass. It then goes past Zin and ends at Kadesh Barnea. From there it goes to Hazar Addar and on to Azmon. ⁵From Azmon it turns toward the River of Egypt so that the border ends at the Mediterranean Sea. 

⁶“The western border is the coastline of the Mediterranean Sea. 

⁷“The northern border extends from the Mediterranean Sea to Mount Hor, ⁸and from Mount Hor to the border of Hamath so that it ends at Zedad. ⁹From there the border goes to Ziphron and ends at Hazar Enan. 

¹⁰“The eastern border extends from Hazar Enan to Shepham. ¹¹From Shepham the border goes down to Riblah, east of Ain, and continues along the eastern slope of the Sea of Galilee. ¹²Then the border goes along the Jordan River so that it ends at the Dead Sea. 

“This will be your land and the borders around it.”
