10. “‘Your eastern border will begin at Hazar Enan and go to Shepham.

11. From Shepham the border will go east of Ain to Riblah. It will go along the hills east of Lake Galilee.

12. Then the border will go down along the Jordan River. It will end at the Dead Sea.“‘These are the borders around your country.’”

15. These two and a half tribes received land east of the Jordan River. It is across from Jericho.”
