Joshua 19:10-31

10The third lot came out for the children of Zebulun according to their families, and the border of their inheritance was as far as Sarid.

11Their border went toward the west and to Maralah, went to Dabbasheth, and extended along the brook that is east of Jokneam.

12Then from Sarid it went eastward toward the sunrise along the border of Chisloth Tabor, and went out toward Daberath, bypassing Japhia.

13And from there it passed along on the east of Gath Hepher, toward Eth Kazin, and extended to Rimmon, which borders on Neah.

14Then the border went around it on the north side of Hannathon, and it ended in the Valley of Jiphthah El.

15Included were Kattath, Nahallal, Shimron, Idalah, and Bethlehem: twelve cities with their villages.

16This was the inheritance of the children of Zebulun according to their families, these cities with their villages.

17The fourth lot came out to Issachar, for the children of Issachar according to their families.

18And their territory went to Jezreel, and included Chesulloth, Shunem,

19Haphraim, Shion, Anaharath,

20Rabbith, Kishion, Abez,

21Remeth, En Gannim, En Haddah, and Beth Pazzez.

22And the border reached to Tabor, Shahazimah, and Beth Shemesh; their border ended at the Jordan: sixteen cities with their villages.

23This was the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Issachar according to their families, the cities and their villages.

24The fifth lot came out for the tribe of the children of Asher according to their families.

25And their territory included Helkath, Hali, Beten, Achshaph,

26Alammelech, Amad, and Mishal; it reached to Mount Carmel westward, along the Brook Shihor Libnath.

27It turned toward the sunrise to Beth Dagon; and it reached to Zebulun and to the Valley of Jiphthah El, then northward beyond Beth Emek and Neiel, bypassing Cabul which was on the left,

28including Ebron, Rehob, Hammon, and Kanah, as far as Greater Sidon.

29And the border turned to Ramah and to the fortified city of Tyre; then the border turned to Hosah, and ended at the sea by the region of Achzib.

30Also Ummah, Aphek, and Rehob were included: twenty-two cities with their villages.

31This was the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Asher according to their families, these cities with their villages.
