Deuteronomy 3:9

9 (the Sidonians ^{▼▼ Sidonians were Phoenician inhabitants of the city of Sidon (now in Lebanon), about 47 mi (75 km) north of Mount Carmel.} call Hermon Sirion ^{▼▼ Sirion. This name is attested in the Ugaritic texts as sryn. See UT 495.} and the Amorites call it Senir), ^{▼▼ Senir. Probably this was actually one of the peaks of Hermon and not the main mountain (Song of Songs 4:8; 1 Chr 5:23). It is mentioned in a royal inscription of Shalmaneser III of Assyria (saniru; see ANET 280).}
