Borders of Israel

34 Adonai spoke to Moses saying, “Command Bnei-Yisrael and say to them: When you enter the land of Canaan, these are the boundaries of the land being allotted to you as an inheritance. Your southern side will run from the wilderness of Zin along the border of Edom to the southern end of the Dead Sea on the east. Your border will cross south of the Scorpion Pass and continue to Zin and south of Kadesh-barnea, then go on to Hazar-addar and on to Azmon. Then the border will turn from Azmon to the Wadi of Egypt and end at the sea.

“Your western boundary will be the coast of the Great Sea. This will be your western border.

“Your northern boundary will be by running a line from the Great Sea to Mount Hor, then from Mount Hor to Levo-Hamath[a], then the boundary will go to Zedad. The border will continue on to Ziphron, ending at Hazar-Enan. This will be your northern border.

10 “For your eastern border, run a line from Hazar-Enan to Shepham. 11 From Shepham, the boundary will descend to Riblah on the east side of Ain, continuing along the eastern slopes of Kinneret[b]. 12 From there the border will go down along the Jordan, ending at the Dead Sea. This will be your territory with its surrounding borders.”

13 Moses commanded Bnei-Yisrael, saying, “This is the land which Adonai has commanded that you are to assign by lot to the nine and a half tribes. 14 For the tribe of the sons of Reuben by their ancestral houses, the tribe of the sons of Gad by their ancestral houses, and the half-tribe of Manasseh have already received their inheritance. 15 These two and a half tribes have received their inheritance on the east side of the Jordan at Jericho, toward the sunrise.”

16 Adonai spoke to Moses saying, 17 “These are the names of the men who will allot the land to you: Eleazar the kohen and Joshua son of Nun. 18 Also you are to select one prince from each tribe to allot the land. 19 These are their names: from the tribe of Judah, Caleb son of Jephunneh. 20 From the tribe of the sons of Simeon, Shemuel son of Ammihud. 21 From the tribe of Benjamin, Elidad son of Chislon. 22 From the tribe of the sons of Dan, the prince is Bukki son of Jogli. 23 From the sons of Joseph, from the tribe of the sons of Manasseh, the prince is to be Hanniel son of Ephod. 24 The prince from the tribe of the sons of Ephraim is to be Kemuel son of Shiphtan.

25 “The prince from the tribe of the sons of Zebulun is Elizaphan son of Parnach. 26 The prince from the tribe of the sons of Issachar is Paltiel son of Azzan. 27 The prince from the tribe of the sons of Asher is Ahihud son of Shelomi. 28 The prince from the tribe of the sons of Naphtali is Pedahel son of Ammihud.” 29 These were those Adonai commanded to apportion to Bnei-Yisrael the land of Canaan.

가나안의 경계

34 여호와께서는 이스라엘 백성에게 이렇게 전하라고 모세에게 말씀하

셨다. “너희가 가나안 땅에 들어갈 때 내가 너희에게 줄 그 땅의 경계는 다음과 같다:

남쪽 경계 지역은 에돔 국경에 접해 있는 진 광야이며 그 경계선은 동쪽으로 사해 남단에서 시작하여

아그랍빔 비탈 남쪽을 지나 진 광야를 통과하여 가데스 – 바네아 남쪽까지 이르고 거기서 계속 하살 – 아달과 아스몬까지 이어질 것이며

또 그 경계선은 아스몬에서 돌아서 이집트 국경 지역의 개울을 따라 지중해 연안에서 끝날 것이다.

“그리고 서쪽 경계는 지중해가 될 것이다.

7-9 “북쪽 경계는 지중해에서 호르산에 이 르고 거기서 하맛 고개와 스닷과 시브론을 거쳐 하살 – 에난까지 이를 것이다.

10 “동쪽 경계는 하살 – 에난에서 남쪽으로 스밤에 이르고

11 거기서 다시 아인의 동쪽 리블라에 이를 것이며 거기서 다시 서쪽으로 꺾어 [a]갈릴리 바다 동편 해변에 이르고

12 거기서 요단강을 따라 사해에 이를 것이다.”

13 그래서 모세는 이스라엘 백성에게 말하였다. “이것은 여러분이 제비 뽑아 분배받을 땅입니다. 여호와께서는 이 땅을 아홉 지파 반에게 나누어 주라고 명령하셨습니다.

14-15 이것은 르우벤 지파와 갓 지파와 므낫 세 지파 절반이 여리고 맞은편 요단강 동쪽에서 이미 땅을 분배받았기 때문입니다.”

땅을 분배할 지도자들

16 여호와께서 모세에게 말씀하셨다.

17 “그 땅을 분배해 줄 사람은 제사장 엘르아살과 눈의 아들 여호수아이다.

18 너는 그들이 땅을 분배하는 데 도와줄 사람들을 각 지파에서 한 명씩 뽑아라.

19 그들은 다음과 같다:

유다 지파에서 여분네의 아들 갈렙,

20 시므온 지파에서 암미훗의 아들 스므엘,

21 베냐민 지파에서 기슬론의 아들 엘리닷,

22 단 지파에서 요글리의 아들 북기,

23 므낫세 지파에서 에봇의 아들 한니엘,

24 에브라임 지파에서 십단의 아들 그무엘,

25 스불론 지파에서 바르낙의 아들 엘리사반,

26 잇사갈 지파에서 앗산의 아들 발디엘,

27 아셀 지파에서 슬로미의 아들 아히훗,

28 납달리 지파에서 암미훗의 아들 브다헬이다.”

29 이상은 여호와께서 가나안 땅을 이스라엘 백성에게 분배할 임무를 맡긴 자들이다.

  1. 34:11 히 ‘긴네렛’

34 And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,

Command the children of Israel, and say unto them, When ye come into the land of Canaan; (this is the land that shall fall unto you for an inheritance, even the land of Canaan with the coasts thereof:)

Then your south quarter shall be from the wilderness of Zin along by the coast of Edom, and your south border shall be the outmost coast of the salt sea eastward:

And your border shall turn from the south to the ascent of Akrabbim, and pass on to Zin: and the going forth thereof shall be from the south to Kadeshbarnea, and shall go on to Hazaraddar, and pass on to Azmon:

And the border shall fetch a compass from Azmon unto the river of Egypt, and the goings out of it shall be at the sea.

And as for the western border, ye shall even have the great sea for a border: this shall be your west border.

And this shall be your north border: from the great sea ye shall point out for you mount Hor:

From mount Hor ye shall point out your border unto the entrance of Hamath; and the goings forth of the border shall be to Zedad:

And the border shall go on to Ziphron, and the goings out of it shall be at Hazarenan: this shall be your north border.

10 And ye shall point out your east border from Hazarenan to Shepham:

11 And the coast shall go down from Shepham to Riblah, on the east side of Ain; and the border shall descend, and shall reach unto the side of the sea of Chinnereth eastward:

12 And the border shall go down to Jordan, and the goings out of it shall be at the salt sea: this shall be your land with the coasts thereof round about.

13 And Moses commanded the children of Israel, saying, This is the land which ye shall inherit by lot, which the Lord commanded to give unto the nine tribes, and to the half tribe:

14 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 half the tribe of Manasseh have received their inheritance:

15 The two tribes and the half tribe have received their inheritance on this side Jordan near Jericho eastward, toward the sunrising.

16 And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,

17 These are the names of the men which shall divide the land unto you: Eleazar the priest, and Joshua the son of Nun.

18 And ye shall take one prince of every tribe, to divide the land by inheritance.

19 And the names of the men are these: Of the tribe of Judah, Caleb the son of Jephunneh.

20 And 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 And the prince of the tribe of the children of Dan, Bukki the son of Jogli.

23 The prince of the children of Joseph, for the tribe of the children of Manasseh, Hanniel the son of Ephod.

24 And the prince of the tribe of the children of Ephraim, Kemuel the son of Shiphtan.

25 And the prince of the tribe of the children of Zebulun, Elizaphan the son of Parnach.

26 And the prince of the tribe of the children of Issachar, Paltiel the son of Azzan.

27 And the prince of the tribe of the children of Asher, Ahihud the son of Shelomi.

28 And the prince of the tribe of the children of Naphtali, Pedahel the son of Ammihud.

29 These are they whom the Lord commanded to divide the inheritance unto the children of Israel in the land of Canaan.
