New International Version

² Their southern boundary started from the bay at the southern end of the Dead Sea,^{(E) 3} crossed south of Scorpion Pass,^(F) continued on to Zin and went over to the south of Kadesh Barnea.^(G) Then it ran past Hezron up to Addar and curved around to Karka. ⁴ It then passed along to Azmon^(H) and joined the Wadi of Egypt,^(I) ending at the Mediterranean Sea. This is their^[a] southern boundary.

⁵ The eastern boundary^(J) is the Dead Sea^(K) as far as the mouth of the Jordan.

The northern boundary^(L) started from the bay of the sea at the mouth of the Jordan, ⁶ went up to Beth Hoglah^(M) and continued north of Beth Arabah^(N) to the Stone of Bohan^(O) son of Reuben. ⁷ The boundary then went up to Debir^(P) from the Valley of Achor^(Q) and turned north to Gilgal,^(R) which faces the Pass of Adummim south of the gorge. It continued along to the waters of En Shemesh^(S) and came out at En Rogel.^{(T) 8} Then it ran up the Valley of Ben Hinnom^(U) along the southern slope of the Jebusite^(V) city (that is, Jerusalem^(W)). From there it climbed to the top of the hill west of the Hinnom Valley^(X) at the northern end of the Valley of Rephaim.^{(Y) 9} From the hilltop the boundary headed toward the spring of the waters of Nephtoah,^(Z) came out at the towns of Mount Ephron and went down toward Baalah^(AA) (that is, Kiriath Jearim).^{(AB) 10} Then it curved westward from Baalah^(AC) to Mount Seir,^(AD) ran along the northern slope of Mount Jearim (that is, Kesalon), continued down to Beth Shemesh^(AE) and crossed to Timnah.^{(AF) 11} It went to the northern slope of Ekron,^(AG) turned toward Shikkeron, passed along to Mount Baalah^(AH) and reached Jabneel.^(AI) The boundary ended at the sea.
