Numbers 34
The Voice
Aaron is now dead, and Moses is given the final instructions about the division of the land. Even knowing he will not enter the land, Moses doesn’t whine or step back from leadership. He continues following God until the nation is about to cross through the waters of the Jordan and begin their new adventure, realizing God’s destiny for themselves, because he is the faithful servant of God even when he knows there will be no reward.
34 The Eternal One spoke to Moses.
Eternal One (to Moses): 2 Command the Israelites, “This is the exact territory you should take, as promised to you by Me for an inheritance throughout the succeeding generations—the entire land of Canaan. 3 The southern part runs from the Zin Wilderness along the border with Edom. The southern boundary begins at the end of the Dead Sea[a] on the east, 4 turns south of the Akrabbim highlands, and crosses over to Zin. Its far end is south of Kadesh-barnea, over to Hazar-addar, across to Azmon, 5 and from there to the Egyptian Wadi straight out to the great Mediterranean Sea. 6 This great sea will be your western boundary. 7 At the northern end, make a line from the great Mediterranean Sea to Mount Hor, 8 then to Lebo-hamath, and up to Zedad. 9 Your territory will be south of Ziphron and Hazar-enan. All that makes up your northern boundary. 10 As for the east, mark your boundary from Hazar-enan to Shepham, 11 down to Riblah (east of Ain), follow the eastern slope of the Sea of Chinnereth, 12 and down the Jordan River all the way to the Dead Sea.[b] That’s it. Those are the boundaries of your promised land.”
Moses (to the Israelites): 13 Exactly which parts of it go to which family shall be determined finally by lot. That is, at least, for the nine remaining tribes and for Ephraim, the other half of the Joseph tribe. 14-15 The extended families of Gadites, Reubenites, and Manassehites (from Joseph’s line) have already gotten their land on this eastern side of the Jordan River.
16 Again the Eternal One spoke to Moses.
Eternal One: 17 The priest Eleazar and Joshua (Nun’s son) shall have the honor of assigning the territories that will henceforth be each one’s ancestral land. 18 One from each of the tribes will then execute these directions. 19 Those men are: for Judah—Caleb (Jephunneh’s son); 20 for Simeon—Shemuel (Ammihud’s son); 21 for Benjamin—Elidad (Chislon’s son); 22 for the Danites—Bukki (Jogli’s son); 23 out of the greater Joseph family, for the Manassehites—Hanniel (Ephod’s son), 24 and for the Ephraimites—Kemuel (Shiphtan’s son); 25 for Zebulun—Elizaphan (Parnach’s son); 26 for Issachar—Paltiel (Azzan’s son); 27 for Asher—Ahihud (Shelomi’s son); 28 and for Naphtali—Pedahel (Ammihud’s son).
29 These are the men whom the Eternal One determined should head up the process of dividing the Canaanite land among the Israelites.

迦南地的境界
34 耶和华对摩西说： 2 “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。 3 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； 4 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； 5 你们的边界要从押们转到埃及河，直达到海。
6 “‘西界方面，你们有大海和海岸；这要作你们的西界。
7 “‘你们的北界如下：从大海起画界，直到何珥山； 8 从何珥山起画界，直到哈马口，使边界直到西达达； 9 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。

Boundaries of Canaan
34 The Lord said to Moses, 2 “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)
3 “‘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) 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)
Caleb(Z) son of Jephunneh,
from the tribe of Judah;(AA)
20 Shemuel son of Ammihud,
from the tribe of Simeon;(AB)
21 Elidad son of Kislon,
from the tribe of Benjamin;(AC)
22 Bukki son of Jogli,
the leader from the tribe of Dan;
23 Hanniel son of Ephod,
the leader from the tribe of Manasseh(AD) son of Joseph;
24 Kemuel son of Shiphtan,
the leader from the tribe of Ephraim(AE) son of Joseph;
25 Elizaphan son of Parnak,
the leader from the tribe of Zebulun;(AF)
26 Paltiel son of Azzan,
the leader from the tribe of Issachar;
27 Ahihud son of Shelomi,
the leader from the tribe of Asher;(AG)
28 Pedahel son of Ammihud,
the leader from the tribe of Naphtali.”
29 These are the men the Lord commanded to assign the inheritance to the Israelites in the land of Canaan.(AH)
