Apportionment of the Land

13Thus says Lord Yahweh, “This shall be the aboundary by which you shall apportion the land for an inheritance among the twelve tribes of Israel; Joseph shall have two bportions.

14“You shall then apportion it for an inheritance, each one 1equally with the other; for I 2aswore to give it to your fathers, and this land shall fall to you 3as an inheritance.

15“This shall be the boundary of the land: on the anorth side, from the Great Sea by the way of Hethlon, to the entrance of 1bZedad;

161aHamath, Berothah, Sibraim, which is between the border of bDamascus and the border of Hamath; Hazer-hatticon, which is by the border of Hauran.

17“And the boundary shall be from the sea to aHazar-enan at the border of Damascus, and on the north toward the north is the border of Hamath. This is the north side.

18“And the aeast side, from between Hauran, Damascus, bGilead, and the land of Israel, shall be the cJordan; from the north border to the eastern sea you shall measure. This is the east side.

19“And the asouth side toward the south shall extend from bTamar as far as the waters of cMeribath-kadesh, to the dbrook of Egypt and to the eGreat Sea. This is the south side toward the south.

20“And the awest side shall be the Great Sea, from the south border to a point opposite 1bLebo-hamath. This is the west side.
