Joshua 19:25-35

25 And their border was Halcath and Chali and Beten and Axaph,
26 And Elmelech and Amaad and Messal: and it reacheth to Carmel by the sea and Sihor and Labanath,
27 And it returneth towards the east to Bethdagon: and passeth along to Zabulon and to the valley of Jephthael towards the north to Bethemec and Nehiel. And it goeth out to the left side of Cabul,
28 And to Abaran and Rohob and Hamon and Cana, as far as the great Sidon.
29 And it returneth to Horma to the strong city of Tyre, and to Hosa: and the outgoings thereof shall be at the sea from the portion of Achziba:
30 And Amma and Aphec and Rohob: twenty-two cities, and their villages.
31 This is the possession of the children of Aser by their kindreds, and the cities and their villages.
32 The sixth lot came out to the sons of Nephtali by their families:
33 And the border began from Heleph and Elon to Saananim, and Adami, which is Neceb, and Jebnael even to Lecum:
34 And the border returneth westward to Azanotthabor, and goeth out from thence to Hucuca, and passeth along to Zabulon southward, and to Aser westward, and to Juda upon the Jordan towards the rising of the sun.
35 And the strong cities are Assedim, Ser, and Emath, and Reccath and Cenereth,
