11 and it goeth up from the sea, and from Maralah; and it cometh into Dabbasheth, unto the strand that is against Jokneam; (and it goeth up to the west to Maralah; and it cometh to Dabbasheth, and to the river east of Jokneam;)
12 and it turneth again from Sarid, against the east, into the coasts of Chislothtabor (and it turneth again from Shadud, toward the east, to the border of Chislothtabor); and it goeth out to Daberath; and it goeth up against Japhia;
13 and from thence it passeth forth to the east coast to Gittahhepher, and to Ittahkazin; and it goeth out into Remmonmethoar, and Neah;
14 and it compasseth to the north, and to Hannathon; and the goings out thereof be the valley of Jiphthahel (and its end, or its limit, is the Jiphthahel Valley),
15 and Kattath, and Nahallal, and Shimron, and Idalah, and Bethlehem; twelve cities, and the towns of those.
16 This is the heritage of the lineage of the sons of Zebulun, by their families, and the cities and towns of those. (This is the inheritance of the tribe of the sons of Zebulun, by their families, and their cities and towns.)
17 The fourth lot went out to Issachar, by his families; (The fourth lot went out to the sons of Issachar, by their families;)
18 and the heritage thereof was Jezreel (and its inheritance was Jezreel), and Chesulloth, and Shunem,
19 and Haphraim, and Shihon, and Anaharath,
20 and Rabbith, and Kishion, (and) Abez,
