Joshua 19:17-27

17 For Issachar hath the fourth lot gone out, for the sons of Issachar, for their families;
18 and their border is [at] Jezreel, and Chesulloth, and Shunem,
19 and Haphraim, and Shihon, and Anaharath,
20 and Rabbith, and Kishion, and Abez,
21 and Remeth, and En-Gannim, and En-Haddah, and Beth-Pazzez;
22 and the border hath touched against Tabor, and Shahazimah, and Beth-Shemesh, and the outgoings of their border have been [at] the Jordan; sixteen cities and their villages.
23 This [is] the inheritance of the tribe of the sons of Issachar, for their families, the cities and their villages.
24 And the fifth lot goeth out for the tribe of the sons of Asher, for their families;
25 and their border is Helkath, and Hali, and Beten, and Achshaph,
26 and Alammelech, and Amad, and Misheal; and it toucheth against Carmel westward, and against Shihor-Libnath;
27 and hath turned back, at the sun-rising, [to] Beth-Dagon, and come against Zebulun, and against the valley of Jiphthah-El toward the north of Beth-Emek, and Neiel, and hath gone out unto Cabul on the left,
