Naphtali

32 The sixth lot came out for the descendants of Naphtali, for the descendants of Naphtali according to their clans.

33 Their border extends from Heleph, from the oak in Za’annim, past Adami Nekeb, and Jabne’el to Lakkum. It ends at the Jordan.

34 Then the border turns west to Aznoth Tabor and goes out from there to Hukkok. It touches Zebulun on the south, Asher on the west, and Judah[a] at the Jordan on the east.

35 The fortified cities are Ziddim, Zer, Hammath, Rakkath, Kinneret, 36 Adamah, Ramah, Hazor, 37 Kedesh, Edrei, En Hazor, 38 Yiron, Migdal El, Horem, Beth Anath, and Beth Shemesh—nineteen cities and their villages.[b]

39 This is the inheritance of the tribe of the descendants of Naphtali according to their clans—the cities and their villages.
