    Both occurrences are tagged Noun · Proper. In Numbers 32:42 the APB renders Nobah as capturing Kenath and its villages; in 1 Chronicles 2:23 it renders Kenath and its daughters among the cities taken by Geshur and Aram.

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the name as “Kenath” in both verses, linking it with “its villages” in Numbers 32:42 and “its daughters” in 1 Chronicles 2:23. The verse is read as a whole, so these surrounding expressions describe the verse context rather than a separate rendering of the name.
