Yechezkel 47:15-23 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

15. And this shall be the boundary of HaAretz toward the north side, from the Yam HaGadol, the derech Chetlon, as men go to Tzedad;

16. Chamat, Berotah, Sibrayim, which is between the boundary of Damascus and the boundary of Chamat; Chamat Khatzer Hattikhon, which is by the boundary of Chavran.

17. And the boundary from the Yam shall be Khatzar Einon, the boundary of Damascus, and the north northward, and the boundary of Chamat. And this is the north side.

18. And the east side ye shall measure from Chavran, and from Damascus, and from Gil`ad, and from Eretz Yisroel by Yarden, from the boundary unto the eastern sea [Dead Sea]. And this is the east side.

19. And the south side southward, from Tamar even to the waters of Merivot in Kadesh, the nachalah to the Yam HaGadol. And this is the south side southward.

20. The west side also shall be the Yam HaGadol from the boundary, until opposite the approach to Chamat. This is the west side.

21. So shall ye divide HaAretz Hazot unto you according to the Shivtei Yisroel.

22. And it shall come to pass, that ye shall divide it by lot for a nachalah unto you, and to the gerim that sojourn among you, which shall father banim among you; and they shall be unto you as nativeborn among the Bnei Yisroel; they shall have nachalah with you among the Shivtei Yisroel.

23. And it shall come to pass, that in what shevet (tribe) the ger sojourneth, there shall ye give him his nachalah, saith Adonoi Hashem.
