And the borderª of the Canaanitesª was¹ from Sidon,ª¹ as thou comestª° to Gerar,ª unto¹ Gaza;ª as thou goest,ª° unto Sodom,ª and Gomorrah,ª and Admah,ª and Zeboim,ª even unto¹ Lasha.ª" {Gen 10:15-19} + "Zebulunª shall dwellª° at the havenª of the sea;ª and he¹ [shall be] for an havenª of ships;ª and his borderª [shall be] unto¹ Zidon.ª" {Gen 49:13} + "And the LORDª deliveredª° them into the handª of Israel,ª who smoteª° them, and chasedª° them unto¹ greatª Zidon,ª and unto¹ Misrephothmaim,ª and unto¹ the valleyª of Mizpehª eastward;ª and they smoteª° them, until¹ they leftª° them none¹ remaining.ª" {Jsh 11:8}
