1. And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
2. "Instruct the sons of Israel, and you shall say to them: When you will have entered into the land of Canaan, and it has fallen into your possession by lot, it shall be bound by these limits:
3. The southern part shall begin from the wilderness of Sin, which is next to Edom, and it shall have the Sea of Salt as a limit to the east.
4. It shall circle on the south side along the ascent of the Scorpion, by this way crossing into Senna, and passing through, from the south, as far as Kadesh-barnea, from which its confines shall go out to the town called Adar, and extend even to Azmon.
5. And its limits shall go around from Azmon to the Torrent of Egypt, and shall end at the shore of the Great Sea.
6. Then the western region shall begin from the Great Sea, and the same shall be its end.
7. Furthermore, toward the northern region, its limits shall begin from the Great Sea, passing through even to the highest mountain.
8. From there, it limits shall advance into Hamath, as far as the limits of Zedad.
9. And its confines shall go all the way to Ziphron, and to the village of Enan. These shall be the limits on the northern side.
10. From there, its limits shall be measured, facing the east side, from the village of Enan as far as Shepham.
