Numbers 34:2–12

²“Command the sons of Israel and say to them, ‘When you enter ^athe land of Canaan, this is the land that shall fall to you as an inheritance, even the land of Canaan according to its borders.

³‘^aYour southern ¹sector shall ²extend from the wilderness of Zin along the side of Edom, and your southern border shall extend from the end of the Salt Sea ^beastward.

⁴‘Then your border shall turn direction from the south to the ascent of Akrabbim and ¹continue to Zin, and its ²termination shall be to the south of ^aKadesh-barnea; and it shall ³reach Hazaraddar and continue to Azmon.

⁵‘The border shall turn direction from Azmon to the brook of Egypt, and its termination shall be at ^athe sea.

⁶‘As for the western border, you shall have the Great Sea, that is, its ¹coastline; this shall be your west border.

⁷‘^aAnd this shall be your north border: you shall draw your border line from the Great Sea to Mount Hor.

⁸‘You shall draw a line from Mount Hor to ^athe ¹Lebo-hamath, and the termination of the border shall be at Zedad;

⁹and the border shall proceed to Ziphron, and its termination shall be at Hazar-enan. This shall be your north border.

¹⁰‘For your eastern border you shall also draw a line from Hazar-enan to Shepham,

¹¹and the border shall go down from Shepham to ^aRiblah on the east side of Ain; and the border shall go down and reach to the ¹slope on the east side of the Sea of ^bChinnereth.

¹²‘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.’ ”
