The Borders of the Land

13This is what the Lord God says: “This is rthe border you will use to divide the land sas an inheritance for the 12 tribes of Israel. Joseph will receive two shares. t14You will inherit it in equal portions, since I swore uto give it to your ancestors. vSo this land will fall to you as an inheritance.

15“This is to be the border of the land:

On the north side wit will extend from the Mediterranean Sea by way of Hethlon and Lebo-hamath to Zedad, x16Berothah, and Sibraim (which is between the border of Damascus and the border of Hamath), as far as Hazer-hatticon, which is on the border of Hauran. 17So the border will run from the sea to Hazar-enon at the border yof Damascus, with the territory of Hamath to the north. This will be the northern side.

18On the east side it will run between Hauran and Damascus, along the Jordan between Gilead and the land of Israel; you will measure from the northern border to the eastern sea. zThis will be the eastern side.

19On the south side it will run from Tamar to the waters of Meribath-kadesh, aand on to the Brook of Egypt bas far as the Mediterranean Sea. cThis will be the southern side.

20On the west side the Mediterranean Sea will be the border, from the southern border up to a point opposite Lebo-hamath. This will be the western side.
