1. The Lord spoke to Moses. He said,
2. "Give the people of Israel a command. Tell them, 'You are going to enter Canaan. The land will be given to you as your own. Here are the borders it will have.
3. " 'Your southern border will include some of the Desert of Zin. It will be along the border of Edom. On the east, your southern border will start from the end of the Dead Sea.
4. It will cross south of Scorpion Pass. It will continue on to Zin. From there it will go south of Kadesh Barnea. Then it will go to Hazar Addar and over to Azmon.
5. There it will turn and join the Wadi of Egypt. It will come to an end at the Mediterranean Sea.
6. " 'Your western border will be the coast of the Mediterranean Sea. That will be your border on the west.
7. " 'For your northern border, run a line from the Mediterranean Sea to Mount Hor.
8. Continue it from Mount Hor to Lebo Hamath. Then the border will go to Zedad.
9. It will continue to Ziphron. It will come to an end at Hazar Enan. That will be your border on the north.
10. " 'For your eastern border, run a line from Hazar Enan to Shepham.
11. The border will go down from Shepham to Riblah. Riblah is on the east side of Ain. From there the border will continue along the slopes east of the Sea of Galilee.
12. Then the border will go down along the Jordan River. It will come to an end at the Dead Sea. " 'That will be your land. And those will be its borders on every side.' "
