迦南地的境界

34 耶和华对摩西说: “你要吩咐以色列人说:‘你们进了迦南地的时候,归你们作产业的迦南地及它的四境就是以下这些地区。 你们南面的地区要从寻的旷野,贴着以东边界;你们的南界要从盐海东面的尽头起; 你们的边界要转到亚克拉滨坡的南边,经过寻,直达加低斯.巴尼亚的南边,又出到哈萨.亚达,过到押们; 你们的边界要从押们转到埃及河,直达到海。

“‘西界方面,你们有大海和海岸;这要作你们的西界。

“‘你们的北界如下:从大海起画界,直到何珥山; 从何珥山起画界,直到哈马口,使边界直到西达达; 这边界再伸到西斐仑,直到哈萨.以难;这要作你们的北界。

10 “‘你们要从哈萨.以难,画到示番为东界。 11 这边界要从示番下到亚延东面的利比拉;这边界要继续伸展直达基尼烈湖的东边。 12 这边界要下到约旦河,直到盐海。这要作你们的土地四周的边界。’”

13 摩西吩咐以色列人说:“这就是你们要抽签承受为业之地,是耶和华吩咐给九个半支派的; 14 因为流本子孙的支派和迦得子孙的支派,按着父家已经取得了产业,玛拿西的半个支派也取得了产业; 15 这两个半支派已经在耶利哥对面,约旦河东岸,向日出之地得了产业。”

监管分地的人员

16 耶和华对摩西说: 17 “这是要把地业分配给你们的人的名字:以利亚撒祭司和嫩的儿子约书亚。 18 你们又要从每支派中选出一个领袖,来帮助分配地业。 19 这些人的名字是:犹大支派有耶孚尼的儿子迦勒。 20 西缅子孙的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 但子孙的支派有一个领袖,是约利的儿子布基。 23 约瑟的后裔,玛拿西子孙的支派有一个领袖,是以弗的儿子汉聂。 24 以法莲子孙的支派有一个领袖,是拾弗但的儿子基母利。 25 西布伦子孙的支派有一个领袖,是帕纳的儿子以利撒番。 26 以萨迦子孙的支派有一个领袖,是阿散的儿子帕铁。 27 亚设子孙的支派有一个领袖,是示罗米的儿子亚希忽。 28 拿弗他利子孙的支派有一个领袖,是亚米忽的儿子比大黑。” 29 这些人,就是耶和华所吩咐,把产业分给迦南地的以色列人的。

The Appointed Boundaries of Canaan

34 Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, “Command the children of Israel, and say to them: ‘When you come into (A)the land of Canaan, this is the land that shall fall to you as an inheritance—the land of Canaan to its boundaries. (B)Your 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 (C)the Salt Sea; your border shall turn from the southern side of (D)the Ascent of Akrabbim, continue to Zin, and be on the south of (E)Kadesh Barnea; then it shall go on to (F)Hazar Addar, and continue to Azmon; the border shall turn from Azmon (G)to the Brook of Egypt, and it shall end at the Sea.

‘As for the (H)western border, you shall have the Great Sea for a border; this shall be your western border.

‘And this shall be your northern border: From the Great Sea you shall mark out your border line to (I)Mount Hor; from Mount Hor you shall mark out your border (J)to the entrance of Hamath; then the direction of the border shall be toward (K)Zedad; the border shall proceed to Ziphron, and it shall end at (L)Hazar Enan. This shall be your northern border.

10 ‘You shall mark out your eastern border from Hazar Enan to Shepham; 11 the border shall go down from Shepham (M)to Riblah on the east side of Ain; the border shall go down and reach to the eastern [a]side of the Sea (N)of Chinnereth; 12 the border shall go down along the Jordan, and it shall end at (O)the Salt Sea. This shall be your land with its surrounding boundaries.’ ”

13 Then Moses commanded the children of Israel, saying: (P)“This is the land which you shall inherit by lot, which the Lord has commanded to give to the nine tribes and to the half-tribe. 14 (Q)For the tribe of the children of Reuben according to the house of their fathers, and the tribe of the children of Gad according to the house of their fathers, have received their inheritance; and the half-tribe of Manasseh has received its inheritance. 15 The two tribes and the half-tribe have received their inheritance on this side of the Jordan, across from Jericho eastward, toward the sunrise.”

The Leaders Appointed to Divide the Land

16 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 17 “These are the names of the men who shall divide the land among you as an inheritance: (R)Eleazar the priest and Joshua the son of Nun. 18 And you shall take one (S)leader of every tribe to divide the land for the inheritance. 19 These are the names of the men: from the tribe of Judah, Caleb the son of Jephunneh; 20 from the tribe of the children of Simeon, Shemuel the son of Ammihud; 21 from the tribe of Benjamin, Elidad the son of Chislon; 22 a leader from the tribe of the children of Dan, Bukki the son of Jogli; 23 from the sons of Joseph: a leader from the tribe of the children of Manasseh, Hanniel the son of Ephod, 24 and a leader from the tribe of the children of Ephraim, Kemuel the son of Shiphtan; 25 a leader from the tribe of the children of Zebulun, Elizaphan the son of Parnach; 26 a leader from the tribe of the children of Issachar, Paltiel the son of Azzan; 27 a leader from the tribe of the children of Asher, Ahihud the son of Shelomi; 28 and a leader from the tribe of the children of Naphtali, Pedahel the son of Ammihud.”

29 These are the ones the Lord commanded to [b]divide the inheritance among the children of Israel in the land of Canaan.

34 The Lord said to Moses, “Command the Israelites and say to them: ‘When you enter Canaan,(A) the land that will be allotted to you as an inheritance(B) is to have these boundaries:(C)

“‘Your southern side will include some of the Desert of Zin(D) along the border of Edom. Your southern boundary will start in the east from the southern end of the Dead Sea,(E) cross south of Scorpion Pass,(F) continue on to Zin and go south of Kadesh Barnea.(G) Then it will go to Hazar Addar and over to Azmon,(H) where it will turn, join the Wadi of Egypt(I) and end at the Mediterranean Sea.

“‘Your western boundary will be the coast of the Mediterranean Sea.(J) This will be your boundary on the west.(K)

“‘For your northern boundary,(L) run a line from the Mediterranean Sea to Mount Hor(M) and from Mount Hor to Lebo Hamath.(N) Then the boundary will go to Zedad, continue to Ziphron and end at Hazar Enan. This will be your boundary on the north.

10 “‘For your eastern boundary,(O) run a line from Hazar Enan to Shepham. 11 The boundary will go down from Shepham to Riblah(P) on the east side of Ain(Q) and continue along the slopes east of the Sea of Galilee.[a](R) 12 Then the boundary will go down along the Jordan and end at the Dead Sea.

“‘This will be your land, with its boundaries on every side.’”

13 Moses commanded the Israelites: “Assign this land by lot(S) as an inheritance.(T) The Lord has ordered that it be given to the nine and a half tribes, 14 because the families of the tribe of Reuben, the tribe of Gad and the half-tribe of Manasseh have received their inheritance.(U) 15 These two and a half tribes have received their inheritance east of the Jordan across from Jericho, toward the sunrise.”

16 The Lord said to Moses, 17 “These are the names of the men who are to assign the land for you as an inheritance: Eleazar the priest and Joshua(V) son of Nun. 18 And appoint one leader from each tribe to help(W) assign the land.(X) 19 These are their names:(Y)
