1 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, 2 "Command the children of Israel, and tell them, ‘When you come into the land of Canaan (this is the land that shall fall to you for an inheritance, even the land of Canaan according to its borders), 3 then your south quarter shall be from the wilderness of Zin along by the side of Edom, and your south border shall be from the end of the Salt Sea eastward. 4 Your border shall turn about southward of the ascent of Akrabbim, and pass along to Zin; and it shall pass southward of Kadesh Barnea; and it shall go from there to Hazar Addar, and pass along to Azmon. 5 The border shall turn about from Azmon to the brook of Egypt, and it shall end at the sea.

6 "‘For the western border, you shall have the great sea and its border. This shall be your west border.

7 "‘This shall be your north border: from the great sea you shall mark out for yourselves Mount Hor. 8 From Mount Hor you shall mark out to the entrance of Hamath; and the border shall pass by Zedad. 9 Then the border shall go to Ziphron, and it shall end at Hazar Enan. This shall be your north border.

10 "‘You shall mark out your east border from Hazar Enan to Shepham. 11 The border shall go down from Shepham to Riblah, on the east side of Ain. The border shall go down, and shall reach to the side of the sea of Chinnereth eastward. 12 The border shall go down to the Jordan, and end at the Salt Sea. This shall be your land according to its borders around it.’"

13 Moses commanded the children of Israel, saying, "This is the land which you shall inherit by lot, which Yahweh has commanded to give to the nine tribes, and to the half-tribe; 14 for the tribe of the children of Reuben according to their fathers’ houses, the tribe of the children of Gad according to their fathers’ houses, and the half-tribe of Manasseh have received their inheritance. 15 The two tribes and the half-tribe have received their inheritance beyond the Jordan at Jericho eastward, toward the sunrise."

16 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, 17 "These are the names of the men who shall divide the land to you for inheritance: Eleazar the priest, and Joshua the son of Nun. 18 You shall take one prince of every tribe, to divide the land for inheritance. 19 These are the names of the men: Of the tribe of Judah, Caleb the son of Jephunneh. 20 Of the tribe of the children of Simeon, Shemuel the son of Ammihud. 21 Of the tribe of Benjamin, Elidad the son of Chislon. 22 Of the tribe of the children of Dan a prince, Bukki the son of Jogli. 23 Of the children of Joseph: of the tribe of the children of Manasseh a prince, Hanniel the son of Ephod. 24 Of the tribe of the children of Ephraim a prince, Kemuel the son of Shiphtan. 25 Of the tribe of the children of Zebulun a prince, Elizaphan the son of Parnach. 26 Of the tribe of the children of Issachar a prince, Paltiel the son of Azzan. 27 Of the tribe of the children of Asher a prince, Ahihud the son of Shelomi. 28 Of the tribe of the children of Naphtali a prince, Pedahel the son of Ammihud." 29 These are they whom Yahweh commanded to divide the inheritance to the children of Israel in the land of Canaan.

1 Verder het die HERE met Moses gespreek en gesê:

2 Gee bevel aan die kinders van Israel en sê vir hulle: As julle in die land Kana„n kom, sal dit die land wees wat aan julle as erfdeel sal val; die land Kana„n volgens sy grense.

3 Julle suidekant dan moet van die woestyn Sin af langs Edom wees; en julle suidelike grens moet aan die oostekant van die einde van die Soutsee af wees;

4 en julle grens moet suid van Skerpioennek swaai en oorloop na Sin toe, totdat dit doodloop suid van Kades-Barn,a; dan moet dit aanloop na Hasar-Addar en oor na Asmon toe.

5 Verder moet die grens swaai van Asmon af na die spruit van Egipte toe, sodat dit by die see doodloop.

6 Aangaande die westelike grens, dit moet vir julle die Groot See saam met sy gebied wees; dit moet julle westelike grens wees.

7 En dit moet julle noordelike grens wees: van die Groot See af moet julle jul grenslyn trek na die berg Hor.

8 Van die berg Hor af moet julle die grenslyn trek tot by die ingang na Hamat; en die grens moet doodloop by Sedad.

9 Dan moet die grens aanloop na Sifron toe, en dit moet doodloop by Hasar-Enan. Dit moet julle noordelike grens wees.

10 Verder moet julle as jul oostelike grens die lyn trek van Hasar-Enan af na Sefam toe.

11 En die grens moet afloop van Sefam af na Ribla toe, oos van Ajin; dan moet die grens afloop en skrams oor die hange van die meer Kinn,ret gaan, aan die oostekant.

12 Verder moet die grens afloop na die Jordaan totdat dit doodloop by die Soutsee. Dit moet vir julle die land wees volgens sy grense rondom.

13 En Moses het aan die kinders van Israel bevel gegee en gesê: Dit is die land wat julle deur die lot as erfdeel sal verwerwe, wat die HERE beveel het om aan die nege stamme en aan die halwe stam te gee.

14 Want die stam van die kinders van die Rubeniete volgens hulle families en die stam van die kinders van die Gadiete volgens hulle families en die halwe stam van Manasse het al ontvang -- hulle het hul erfdeel ontvang.

15 Die twee stamme en die halwe stam het hulle erfdeel aan die oostekant van die Jordaan van J,rigo, teen sonop, ontvang.

16 Verder het die HERE met Moses gespreek en gesê:

17 Dit is die name van die manne wat vir julle die land as erfenis moet verdeel: die priester Ele sar en Josua, die seun van Nun.

18 Daarby moet julle uit elke stam een owerste neem om die land as erfenis te verdeel.

19 En dit is die name van die manne: van die stam van Juda -- Kaleb, die seun van Jefunne;

20 en van die stam van S¡meon se kinders -- S,muel, die seun van Ammihud;

21 van die stam van Benjamin -- El¡dad, die seun van Kislon;

22 en van die stam van Dan se kinders as owerste -- Bukki, die seun van Jogli;

23 van die kinders van Josef: van die stam van Manasse se kinders as owerste -- H nniël, die seun van Efod;

24 en van die stam van Efraim se kinders as owerste -- K,muel, die seun van Siftan;

25 en van die stam van S,bulon se kinders as owerste -- El¡safan, die seun van Parnag;

26 en van die stam van Issaskar se kinders as owerste -- P ltiël, die seun van Assan;

27 en van die stam van Aser se kinders as owerste -- Ah¡hud, die seun van Selomi;

28 en van die stam van N ftali se kinders as owerste -- Ped el, die seun van Ammihud.

29 Dit is hulle aan wie die HERE bevel gegee het om die erfenis vir die kinders van Israel in die land Kanaän te verdeel.
