1Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen, dicens:
1And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
2Præcipe filiis Israël, et dices ad eos: Cum ingressi fueritis terram Chanaan, et in possessionem vobis sorte ceciderit, his finibus terminabitur.
2Command the children of Israel, and then shalt say to them: When you are entered into the land of Chanaan, and it shall be fallen into your possession by lot, it shall be bounded by these limits:
3Pars meridiana incipiet a solitudine Sin, quæ est juxta Edom: et habebit terminos contra orientem mare salsissimum.
3The south side shall begin from the wilderness of Sin, which is by Edom: and shall have the most salt sea for its furthest limits eastward:
4Qui circuibunt australem plagam per ascensum Scorpionis, ita ut transeant in Senna, et perveniant a meridie usque ad Cadesbarne, unde egredientur confinia ad villam nomine Adar, et tendent usque ad Asemona.
4Which limits shall go round on the south side by the ascent of the Scorpion and so into Senna, and reach toward the south as far as Cadesbarne, from whence the frontiers shall go out to the town called Adar, and shall reach as far as Asemona.
5Ibitque per gyrum terminus ab Asemona usque ad torrentem Ægypti, et maris magni littore finietur.
5And the limits shall fetch a compass from Asemona to the torrent of Egypt, and shall end in the shore of the great sea.
6Plaga autem occidentalis a mari magno incipiet, et ipso fine claudetur.
6And the west side shall begin from the great sea, and the same shall be the end thereof.
7Porro ad septentrionalem plagam a mari magno termini incipient, pervenientes usque ad montem altissimum,
7But toward the north side the borders shall begin from the great sea, reaching to the most high mountain,
8a quo venient in Emath usque ad terminos Sedada:
8From which they shall come to Emath, as far as the borders of Sedada:
9ibuntque confinia usque ad Zephrona, et villam Enan. Hi erunt termini in parte aquilonis.
9And the limits shall go as far as Zephrona, and the village of Enan. These shall be the borders on the north side.
10Inde metabuntur fines contra orientalem plagam de villa Enan usque Sephama,
10From thence they shall mark out the bounds towards the east side from the village of Enan unto Sephama.
11et de Sephama descendent termini in Rebla contra fontem Daphnim: inde pervenient contra orientem ad mare Cenereth,
11And from Sephama the bounds shall go down to Rebla over against the fountain of Daphnis: from thence they shall come eastward to the sea of Cenereth,
12et tendent usque ad Jordanem, et ad ultimum salsissimo claudentur mari. Hanc habebitis terram per fines suos in circuitu.
12And shall reach as far as the Jordan, and at the last shall be closed in by the most salt sea. This shall be your land with its borders round about.
13Præcepitque Moyses filiis Israël, dicens: Hæc erit terra, quam possidebitis sorte, et quam jussit Dominus dari novem tribubus, et dimidiæ tribui.
13And Moses commanded the children of Israel, saying: This shall be the land which you shall possess by lot, and which the Lord hath commanded to be given to the nine tribes, and to the half tribe.
14Tribus enim filiorum Ruben per familias suas, et tribus filiorum Gad juxta cognationum numerum, media quoque tribus Manasse,
14For the tribe of the children of Ruben by their families, and the tribe of the children of Gad according to the number of their kindreds, and half of the tribe of Manasses,
15id est, duæ semis tribus, acceperunt partem suam trans Jordanem contra Jericho ad orientalem plagam.
15That is, two tribes and a half, have received their portion beyond the Jordan over against Jericho at the east side.

16And the Lord said to Moses:
17Hæc sunt nomina virorum qui terram vobis divident, Eleazar sacerdos, et Josue filius Nun,
