Numbers 34:2–12

²“Command the children of Israel, and say to them: ‘When you come into ^athe land of Canaan, this is the land that shall fall to you as an inheritance—the land of Canaan to its boundaries. ^3bYour southern border shall be from the Wilderness of Zin along the border of Edom; then your southern border shall extend eastward to the end of ^cthe Salt Sea; ⁴your border shall turn from the southern side of ^dthe Ascent of Akrabbim, continue to Zin, and be on the south of ^eKadesh Barnea; then it shall go on to ^fHazar Addar, and continue to Azmon; ⁵the border shall turn from Azmon ^gto the Brook of Egypt, and it shall end at the Sea.

⁶‘As for the ^hwestern border, you shall have the Great Sea for a border; this shall be your western border.

⁷‘And this shall be your northern border: From the Great Sea you shall mark out your border line to ⁱMount Hor; ⁸from Mount Hor you shall mark out your border ^jto the entrance of Hamath; then the direction of the border shall be toward ^kZedad; ⁹the border shall proceed to Ziphron, and it shall end at ^lHazar Enan. This shall be your northern border.

¹⁰‘You shall mark out your eastern border from Hazar Enan to Shepham; ¹¹the border shall go down from Shepham ^mto Riblah on the east side of Ain; the border shall go down and reach to the eastern ¹side of the Sea ⁿof Chinnereth; ¹²the border shall go down along the Jordan, and it shall end at ^othe Salt Sea. This shall be your land with its surrounding boundaries.’ ”
