The LORD said to Moses,

"These are the names of the men who are to assign the land for you as an inheritance: Eleazar the priest and Joshua son of Nun.

And appoint one leader from each tribe to help assign the land.

These are their names: Caleb son of Jephunneh, from the tribe of Judah;

Shemuel son of Ammihud, from the tribe of Simeon;

Elidad son of Kislon, from the tribe of Benjamin;

Bukki son of Jogli, the leader from the tribe of Dan;

Hanniel son of Ephod, the leader from the tribe of Manasseh son of Joseph;

Kemuel son of Shiphtan, the leader from the tribe of Ephraim son of Joseph;

Elizaphan son of Parnach, the leader from the tribe of Zebulun;

Paltiel son of Azzan, the leader from the tribe of Issachar;

Ahihud son of Shelomi, the leader from the tribe of Asher;

Pedahel son of Ammihud, the leader from the tribe of Naphtali."

These are the men the LORD commanded to assign the inheritance to the Israelites in the land of Canaan.
