命定迦南地之境界

34 耶和华晓谕摩西说: “你吩咐以色列人说:你们到了迦南地,就是归你们为业的迦南四境之地: 南角要从的旷野,贴着以东的边界。南界要从海东头起, 绕到亚克拉滨坡的南边,接连到,直通到加低斯巴尼亚的南边,又通到哈萨亚达,接连到押们 押们转到埃及小河,直通到海为止。

“西边要以大海为界。这就是你们的西界。

“北界要从大海起,划到何珥山, 何珥山划到哈马口,通到西达达 又通到西斐仑,直到哈萨以难。这要做你们的北界。

10 “你们要从哈萨以难划到示番为东界。 11 这界要从示番下到亚延东边的利比拉,又要达到基尼烈湖的东边。 12 这界要下到约旦河,通到海为止。这四围的边界以内,要做你们的地。”

13 摩西吩咐以色列人说:“这地就是耶和华吩咐拈阄给九个半支派承受为业的。 14 因为鲁本支派和迦得支派按着宗族受了产业,玛拿西半个支派也受了产业。 15 这两个半支派已经在耶利哥对面,约旦河东,向日出之地受了产业。”

拣选分地之人

16 耶和华晓谕摩西说: 17 “要给你们分地为业之人的名字是祭司以利亚撒的儿子约书亚 18 又要从每支派中选一个首领帮助他们。 19 这些人的名字:犹大支派有耶孚尼的儿子迦勒 20 西缅支派有亚米忽的儿子示母利 21 便雅悯支派有基斯伦的儿子以利达 22 支派有一个首领,约利的儿子布基 23 约瑟的子孙玛拿西支派有一个首领,以弗的儿子汉聂 24 以法莲支派有一个首领,拾弗但的儿子基母利 25 西布伦支派有一个首领,帕纳的儿子以利撒番 26 以萨迦支派有一个首领,阿散的儿子帕铁 27 亚设支派有一个首领,示罗米的儿子亚希忽 28 拿弗他利支派有一个首领,亚米忽的儿子比大黑。” 29 这些人就是耶和华所吩咐,在迦南地把产业分给以色列人的。

Israel Arrives at the Borders of Canaan

34 The Lord said to Moses, “Give the Israelites a command. Tell them, ‘You are going to enter Canaan. The land will be given to you as your own. Here are the borders it must have.

“ ‘Your southern border will include part of the Desert of Zin. It will be along the border of Edom. Your southern border will start in the east from the southern end of the Dead Sea. It will cross south of Scorpion Pass. It will continue on to Zin. From there it will go south of Kadesh Barnea. Then it will go to Hazar Addar and over to Azmon. There it will turn and join the Wadi of Egypt. It will come to an end at the Mediterranean Sea.

Your western border will be the coast of the Mediterranean Sea. That will be your border on the west.

For your northern border, run a line from the Mediterranean Sea to Mount Hor. Continue it from Mount Hor to Lebo Hamath. Then the border will go to Zedad. It will continue to Ziphron. It will come to an end at Hazar Enan. That will be your border on the north.

10 For your eastern border, run a line from Hazar Enan to Shepham. 11 The border will go down from Shepham to Riblah. Riblah is on the east side of Ain. From there the border will continue along the slopes east of the Sea of Galilee. 12 Then the border will go down along the Jordan River. It will come to an end at the Dead Sea.

“ ‘That will be your land. And those will be its borders on every side.’ ”

13 Moses gave the Israelites a command. He said, “Cast lots when you divide up the land. Each tribe will have its own share. The Lord has ordered it to be given to the nine and a half tribes. 14 The families of the tribes of Reuben and Gad have already received their shares. The families of half of the tribe of Manasseh have also received their share. 15 Those two and a half tribes have received their shares east of the Jordan River. It flows near Jericho. Their land is toward the sunrise.”

16 The Lord spoke to Moses. He said, 17 “Here are the names of the men who will give out the shares of the land to your people. They are Eleazar the priest and Joshua, the son of Nun. 18 Also appoint one leader from each of the nine and a half tribes. They will help you give out the land.

19 “Here are their names.

“Caleb, the son of Jephunneh, is from the tribe of Judah.

20 Shemuel, the son of Ammihud, is from the tribe of Simeon.

21 Elidad, the son of Kislon, is from the tribe of Benjamin.

22 Bukki, the son of Jogli, is the leader from the tribe of Dan.

23 Hanniel, the son of Ephod, is the leader from the tribe of Manasseh. Manasseh was the son of Joseph.

24 Kemuel, the son of Shiphtan, is the leader from the tribe of Ephraim. Ephraim was the son of Joseph.

25 Elizaphan, the son of Parnak, is the leader from the tribe of Zebulun.

26 Paltiel, the son of Azzan, is the leader from the tribe of Issachar.

27 Ahihud, the son of Shelomi, is the leader from the tribe of Asher.

28 Pedahel, the son of Ammihud, is the leader from the tribe of Naphtali.”

29 These are the men the Lord commanded to give out the shares of the land. They were commanded to give them to Israel in the land of Canaan.
