Numbers 34:11-12

34:11 The border will run down from Shepham to Riblah, on the east side of Ain, and the border will descend and reach the eastern side of the Sea of Chinnereth. ¹  34:12 Then the border will continue down the Jordan River ²  and its direction will be to the Salt Sea. This will be your land by its borders that surround it.’”

¹ tn Or “the Sea of Galilee” (so NLT); NCV, TEV, CEV “Lake Galilee.”

sn The word means “harp.” The lake (or sea) of Galilee was so named because it is shaped somewhat like a harp.

² tn The word “River” is not in the Hebrew text, but has been supplied in the translation for clarity.
