The LORD spoke to Moses, saying:

Command the Israelites, and say to them: When you enter the land of Canaan (this is the land that shall fall to you for an inheritance, the land of Canaan, defined by its boundaries),
|
34:3 |
your south sector shall extend from the wilderness of Zin along the side of Edom. Your southern boundary shall begin from the end of the Dead Sea on the east;
|
34:4 |
your boundary shall turn south of the ascent of Akrabbim, and cross to Zin, and its outer limit shall be south of Kadesh-barnea; then it shall go on to Hazar-addar, and cross to Azmon;
|
34:5 |
the boundary shall turn from Azmon to the Wadi of Egypt, and its termination shall be at the Sea.
|
34:6 |
For the western boundary, you shall have the Great Sea and its coast; this shall be your western boundary.
|
34:7 |
This shall be your northern boundary: from the Great Sea you shall mark out your line to Mount Hor;
|
34:8 |
from Mount Hor you shall mark it out to Lebo-hamath, and the outer limit of the boundary shall be at Zedad;
|
34:9 |
then the boundary shall extend to Ziphron, and its end shall be at Hazar-enan; this shall be your northern boundary.
|
34:10 |
You shall mark out your eastern boundary from Hazar-enan to Shepham;
|
34:11 |
and the boundary shall continue down from Shepham to Riblah on the east side of Ain; and the boundary shall go down, and reach the eastern slope of the sea of Chinnereth;
|
34:12 |
and the boundary shall go down to the Jordan, and its end shall be at the Dead Sea. This shall be your land with its boundaries all around.
