Your southern side will be from the Wilderness of Zin along the boundary of Edom. Your southern border on the east will begin at the east end of the Dead Sea.

Your border will turn south of the Ascent of Akrabbim, proceed to Zin, and end south of Kadesh-barnea. It will go to Hazar-addar and proceed to Azmon.

The border will turn from Azmon to the Brook of Egypt, where it will end at the Mediterranean Sea.

Then the border will go to Ziphron and end at Hazar-enan. This will be your northern border.

Then the border will go down to the Jordan and end at the Dead Sea. This will be your land defined by its borders on all sides.”
