18 On that day Jehovah concluded* with Aʹbram a covenant,+ saying: “To your seed I will give this land,+ from the river of Egypt to the great river, the river Eu·phraʹtes:+

31 “And I will fix your boundary from the Red Sea to the sea of the Phi·lisʹtines and from the wilderness to the River;*+ because I shall give into YOUR hand the inhabitants of the land, and you* will certainly drive them out from before yourself.+

3 “‘And YOUR south side must prove to be from the wilderness of Zin alongside Eʹdom,+ and YOUR south boundary must prove to be from the extremity of the Salt Sea+ on the east.

7 Turn and set out on YOUR way and go into the mountainous region of the Amʹor·ites+ and to all their neighbors in the Arʹa·bah,*+ the mountainous region+ and the She·pheʹlah* and the Negʹeb*+ and the seacoast,+ the land of the Caʹnaan·ites,+ and Lebʹa·non,+ up to the great river, the river Eu·phraʹtes.+

4 And it passed on to Azʹmon+ and went out to the torrent valley of Egypt;+ and the boundary’s termination proved to be at the sea. This came to be their* southern boundary.
