  • Hiligaynon: “They were- still -given three towns/cities from the land[s] of the tribe of Naftali. This is Kedesh in Galilea, (which (is) also one of the cities of refuge, where a man who kills untentionally can-flee), Hamot Dor and Kartan, including their pasturelands.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
  • English: “From the area that had been allotted to the tribe of Naphtali they were allotted three cities.
