Numbers 34
New English Translation
The Southern Border of the Land
34 [a] Then the Lord spoke to Moses: 2 “Give these instructions[b] to the Israelites, and tell them: ‘When you enter Canaan, the land that has been assigned to you as an inheritance,[c] the land of Canaan with its borders, 3 your southern border[d] will extend from the wilderness of Zin along the Edomite border, and your southern border will run eastward to the extremity of the Salt Sea, 4 and then the border will turn from the south to the Scorpion Ascent,[e] continue to Zin, and then its direction[f] will be from the south to Kadesh Barnea. Then it will go to Hazar Addar and pass over to Azmon. 5 There the border will turn from Azmon to the Stream of Egypt, and then its direction is to the sea.[g]
The Western Border of the Land
6 “‘And for a western border[h] you will have the Great Sea.[i] This will be your western border.
The Northern Border of the Land
7 “‘And this will be your northern border: From the Great Sea you will draw a line to Mount Hor; 8 from Mount Hor you will draw a line to Lebo Hamath,[j] and the direction of the border will be to Zedad. 9 The border will continue to Ziphron, and its direction will be to Hazar Enan. This will be your northern border.
The Eastern Border of the Land
10 “‘For your eastern border you will draw a line from Hazar Enan to Shepham. 11 The border will run down from Shepham to Riblah, on the east side of Ain, and the border will descend and reach the eastern side of the Sea of Kinnereth.[k] 12 Then the border will continue down the Jordan River[l] and its direction will be to the Salt Sea. This will be your land by its borders that surround it.’”
13 Then Moses commanded the Israelites: “This is the land that you will inherit by lot, which the Lord has commanded to be given[m] to the nine-and-a-half tribes, 14 because the tribe of the Reubenites by their families,[n] the tribe of the Gadites by their families, and the half-tribe of Manasseh have received their inheritance. 15 The two-and-a-half tribes have received their inheritance on this side of the Jordan, east of Jericho, toward the sunrise.”
Appointed Officials
16 The Lord said to Moses: 17 “These are the names of the men who are to allocate the land to you as an inheritance:[o] Eleazar the priest and Joshua son of Nun. 18 You must take one leader from every[p] tribe to assist in allocating the land as an inheritance.[q] 19 These are the names of the men: from the tribe of Judah, Caleb son of Jephunneh; 20 from the tribe of the Simeonites, Shemuel son of Ammihud; 21 from the tribe of Benjamin, Elidad son of Kislon; 22 and from the tribe of the Danites, a leader, Bukki son of Jogli. 23 From the Josephites, Hanniel son of Ephod, a leader from the tribe of Manasseh; 24 from the tribe of the Ephraimites, a leader, Kemuel son of Shiphtan; 25 from the tribe of the Zebulunites, a leader, Elizaphan son of Parnach; 26 from the tribe of the Issacharites, a leader, Paltiel son of Azzan; 27 from the tribe of the Asherites, a leader, Ahihud son of Shelomi; 28 and from the tribe of the Naphtalites, a leader, Pedahel son of Ammihud.” 29 These are the ones whom the Lord commanded to divide up the inheritance among the Israelites in the land of Canaan.
Footnotes
- Numbers 34:1 sn This chapter falls into several sections: the south (vv. 1-5), the west (v. 6), the north (vv. 7-9), the east (vv. 10-15), and then a list of appointed officials (vv. 16-29).
- Numbers 34:2 tn Or “command.”
- Numbers 34:2 tn Heb “this is the land that will fall to you as an inheritance.”
- Numbers 34:3 tn The expression refers to the corner or extremity of the Negev, the South.
- Numbers 34:4 tn Or “the Ascent of Scorpions” (עַקְרַבִּים [ʿaqrabbim] means “scorpions” in Hebrew).
- Numbers 34:4 tn Heb “its going forth,” or the way it runs.
- Numbers 34:5 sn That is, the Mediterranean.
- Numbers 34:6 tn The word for west is simply “sea,” because the sea is west of Israel.
- Numbers 34:6 sn That is, the Mediterranean Sea (also in the following verse).
- Numbers 34:8 tn Or “to the entrance to Hamath.”
- Numbers 34:11 tn Or “the Sea of Galilee” (so NLT); NCV, TEV, CEV “Lake Galilee.”sn The word means “harp.” The lake (or sea) of Galilee was so named because it is shaped somewhat like a harp.
- Numbers 34:12 tn The word “River” is not in the Hebrew text, but has been supplied in the translation for clarity.
- Numbers 34:13 tn The infinitive forms the direct object of what the Lord commanded. It actually means “to give,” but without an expressed subject may be made passive.
- Numbers 34:14 tn Heb “the house of their fathers.” So also a little later in this verse.
- Numbers 34:17 tn The verb can be translated simply as “divide,” but it has more the idea of allocate as an inheritance, the related noun being “inheritance.”
- Numbers 34:18 tn This sense is created by repetition: “one leader, one leader from the tribe.”
- Numbers 34:18 tn The sentence simply uses לִנְחֹל (linkhol, “to divide, apportion”). It has been taken already to mean “allocate as an inheritance.” Here “assist” may be added since Joshua and Eleazar had the primary work.

Ang mga Hangganan ng Canaan
34 Sinabi ng Panginoon kay Moises, 2 “Sabihin mo sa mga Israelita na kung papasok na sila sa Canaan, ito ang mga hangganan ng lupain na kanilang mamanahin:
3 “Ang hangganan sa timog ay ang ilang ng Zin sa may hangganan ng Edom. Magsisimula ito sa katimugang bahagi ng Dagat na Patay.[a] 4 At liliko ito patimog papunta sa Daang Paahon ng Akrabim, hanggang sa ilang ng Zin, at magpapatuloy sa timog ng Kadesh Barnea. Pagkatapos, didiretso ito sa Hazar Adar hanggang sa Azmon, 5 at liliko papunta sa Lambak ng Egipto at magtatapos sa Dagat ng Mediteraneo.
6 “Ang hangganan sa kanluran ay ang Dagat ng Mediteraneo.
7 “Ang hangganan sa hilaga ay magmumula sa Dagat ng Mediteraneo papunta sa Bundok ng Hor, 8 at mula sa Bundok ng Hor papunta sa Lebo Hamat. Magpapatuloy ito sa Zedad, 9 hanggang sa Zifron at magtatapos sa Hazar Enan.
10 “Ang hangganan sa silangan ay magmumula sa Hazar Enan papunta sa Shefam. 11 Pagkatapos, bababa ito papunta sa Ribla, sa bandang silangan ng Ain, at magpapatuloy ito sa mga burol sa silangan ng Lawa ng Galilea.[b] 12 Pagkatapos, bababa ito sa Jordan at magtatapos sa Dagat na Patay.
“Ito ang inyong lupain, at ang mga hangganan nito sa palibot.”
13 Pagkatapos, sinabi ni Moises sa mga Israelita, “Hatiin ninyo ang mga lupaing ito bilang inyong mana sa pamamagitan ng palabunutan. Sinabi ng Panginoon na ibigay ito sa siyam at kalahating lahi, 14-15 Dahil ang lahi nina Reuben, Gad, at ng kalahating lahi ni Manase ay nakatanggap na ng kanilang mana sa bandang silangan ng Jordan malapit sa Jerico.”
16 Sinabi ng Panginoon kay Moises, 17 “Sina Eleazar na pari at Josue na anak ni Nun ang maghahati-hati ng lupain para sa mga tao. 18 At pumili ka ng isang pinuno sa bawat lahi para tulungan sila sa paghahati ng lupain.” 19-28 Ito ang pangalan ng mga pinili:
| Lahi | Pinuno |
|---|---|
| Juda | Caleb na anak ni Jefune |
| Simeon | Shemuel na anak ni Amihud |
| Benjamin | Elidad na anak ni Kislon |
| Dan | Buki na anak ni Jogli |
| Manase na anak ni Jose | Haniel na anak ni Efod |
| Efraim na anak ni Jose | Kemuel na anak ni Siftan |
| Zebulun | Elizafan na anak ni Parnac |
| Isacar | Paltiel na anak ni Azan |
| Asher | Ahihud na anak ni Shelomi |
| Naftali | Pedahel na anak ni Amihud |
29 Sila ang mga pinili ng Panginoon para tumulong sa paghahati-hati ng lupain ng Canaan bilang mana ng mga Israelita.

Your southern boundary will start in the east from the southern end of the Dead Sea,(E) 4 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) 5 where it will turn, join the Wadi of Egypt(I) and end at the Mediterranean Sea.
6 “‘Your western boundary will be the coast of the Mediterranean Sea.(J) This will be your boundary on the west.(K)
7 “‘For your northern boundary,(L) run a line from the Mediterranean Sea to Mount Hor(M) 8 and from Mount Hor to Lebo Hamath.(N) Then the boundary will go to Zedad, 9 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)
