¹ And the lot for the tribe of the sons of Judah, for their families, is unto the border of Edom; the wilderness of Zin southward, at the extremity of the south;

⁵⁵ `Only by lot is the land apportioned, by the names of the tribes of their fathers they inherit;

⁵⁶ according to the lot is their inheritance apportioned between many and few.'

³⁶ and they journey from Ezion-Gaber, and encamp in the wilderness of Zin, which `is' Kadesh.

³⁷ And they journey from Kadesh, and encamp in mount Hor, in the extremity of the land of Edom.

³ then hath the south quarter been to you from the wilderness of Zin, by the sides of Edom, yea, the south border hath been to you from the extremity of the Salt Sea, eastward;

⁴ and the border hath turned round to you from the south to the ascent of Akrabbim, and hath passed on to Zin, and its outgoings have been from the south to Kadesh-Barnea, and it hath gone out at Hazar-Addar, and hath passed on to Azmon;

⁵ and the border hath turned round from Azmon to the brook of Egypt, and its outgoings have been at the sea.

² by lot `is' their inheritance, as Jehovah commanded by the hand of Moses, for the nine of the tribes, and the half of the tribe;

¹⁹ `And the south quarter southward `is' from Tamar unto the waters of Meriboth-Kadesh, the stream unto the great sea: and `this is' the south quarter southward.
