Bamidbar 34

1And Hashem spoke unto Moshe, saying,

2Command the Bnei Yisroel, and say unto them, When ye come into Eretz Kena'an (this is HaAretz that shall fall unto you for a nachalah, even Eretz Kena'an with the borders thereof),

3Then your southern side shall be from the Midbar Tzin along by the border of Edom, and your southern border shall be from the edge of the Yam HaMelach (Salt Sea, Dead Sea) to the east;

4And your border shall turn from the south of Ma'aleh Akrabbim, and pass on to Tzin; and the going forth thereof shall be from the south of Kadesh Barnea, and shall go on to Chatzar Addar, and pass on to Atzmon;

5And the border shall go around from Atzmon unto the Wadi of Mitzrayim, and the goings out of it shall be toward the [Mediterranean] Sea.

6And as for the western border, ye shall even have the Yam HaGadol for a border; this shall be your west border.

7And this shall be your northern border: from the Yam HaGadol ye shall run to Mt Hor;

8From Mt Hor ye shall run your border unto the approach to Chamat; and the goings forth of the border shall be toward Tzedad;

9And the border shall go on to Ziphron, and the goings out of it shall be Chatzar Einan; this shall be your northern border.

10And ye shall draw a line for you for an eastern border from Chatzar Einan to Shepham;

11And the border shall go down from Shepham to Rivlah, on the east side of Ain; the border shall descend, and shall reach unto the bank of the Yam Kinneret to the east;

12And the border shall go down to the Yarden, and the goings out of it shall be at the Yam HaMelach; this shall be your land with the borders thereof all around.

13And Moshe commanded the Bnei Yisroel, saying, This is the land which ye shall inherit by goral, which Hashem commanded to give unto the nine mattot (tribes), and to the half tribe;

14For the tribe of the Bnei Reuven according to the bais avotam, and the tribe of the Bnei Gad according to the bais avotam and the half tribe of Menasheh have received their nachalah;

15The two tribes and the half tribe have received their nachalah on the east side of the Yarden near Yericho toward the sunrise.

16And Hashem spoke unto Moshe, saying,

17These are the shmot of the anashim which shall apportion HaAretz unto you; Elazar HaKohen, and Joshua Ben Nun.

18And ye shall take one nasi of every matteh to possess HaAretz.

19And the shmot of the anashim are these: Of the tribe of Yehudah, Kalev Ben Yephunneh;

20And of the tribe of the Bnei Shim'on, Shemuel Ben Ammihud;

21Of the tribe of Binyamin, Elidad Ben Kislon;

22And the nasi of the tribe of the Bnei Dan, Bukki Ben Yogli;

23The nasi of the Bnei Yosef, for the tribe of the Bnei Menasheh, Channi'el Ben Ephod;

24And the nasi of the tribe of the Bnei Ephrayim, Kemuel Ben Shiphtan;

25And the nasi of the tribe of the Bnei Zevulun, Elitzaphan Ben Parnach;

26And the nasi of the tribe of the Bnei Yissakhar, Paltiel Ben Azzan;

27And the nasi of the tribe of the Bnei Asher, Achihud Ben Shelomi;

28And the nasi of the tribe of the Bnei Naphtali, Pedahel Ben Ammihud;

29These are they whom Hashem commanded to apportion the inheritance unto the Bnei Yisroel in Eretz Kena'an.
