Zebulun

10 The third lot came up for the descendants of Zebulun according to their clans.

The border of their inheritance reaches as far as Sarid.

11 Their border ascends toward the west to Maralah and touches Dabbesheth.

Then it touches the streambed that is next to Jokneam.

12 Then it turns from Sarid eastward toward the rising of the sun on the border of Kisloth Tabor. Then it goes out to Daberath and ascends to Japhia.

13 From there it passes on the east, along the side that is toward the sunrise, to Gath Hepher, to Eth Kazin, and goes out to Rimmon, which is marked off to Neah.[a]

14 Then the border curves around it on the north to Hannathon, and it ends at the Valley of Iphtah El, 15 Kattath, Nahalal, Shimron, Idalah, and Bethlehem—twelve cities and their villages.[b]

16 This is the inheritance of the descendants of Zebulun according to their clans—these cities and their villages.
