Where Mount Baalah appears in Scripture
וְתָאַר הַגְּבוּל מֵרֹאשׁ הָהָר אֶל-מַעְיַן מֵי נֶפְתּוֹחַ וְיָצָא אֶל-עָרֵי הַר-עֶפְרוֹן וְתָאַר הַגְּבוּל בַּֽעֲלָה הִיא קִרְיַת יְעָרִֽים׃
And the border was drawn from the top of the hill unto the fountain of the water of Nephtoah, and went out to the cities of mount Ephron; and the border was drawn to Baalah, which is Kirjath-jearim:
וְנָסַב הַגְּבוּל מִבַּֽעֲלָה יָמָּה אֶל-הַר שֵׂעִיר וְעָבַר אֶל-כֶּתֶף הַר-יְעָרִים מִצָּפוֹנָה הִיא כְסָלוֹן וְיָרַד בֵּֽית-שֶׁמֶשׁ וְעָבַר תִּמְנָֽה׃
And the border compassed from Baalah westward unto mount Seir, and passed along unto the side of mount Jearim, which is Chesalon, on the north side, and went down to Beth-shemesh, and passed on to Timnah:
וְיָצָא הַגְּבוּל אֶל-כֶּתֶף עֶקְרוֹן צָפוֹנָה וְתָאַר הַגְּבוּל שִׁכְּרוֹנָה וְעָבַר הַר-הַֽבַּעֲלָה וְיָצָא יַבְנְאֵל וְהָיוּ תֹּֽצְאוֹת הַגְּבוּל יָֽמָּה׃
And the border went out unto the side of Ekron northward: and the border was drawn to Shicron, and passed along to mount Baalah, and went out unto Jabneel; and the goings out of the border were at the sea.
וַיַּעַל דָּוִיד וְכָל-יִשְׂרָאֵל בַּֽעֲלָתָה אֶל-קִרְיַת יְעָרִים אֲשֶׁר לִֽיהוּדָה לְהַֽעֲלוֹת מִשָּׁם אֵת אֲרוֹן הָֽאֱלֹהִים׀ יְהוָה יוֹשֵׁב הַכְּרוּבִים אֲשֶׁר-נִקְרָא שֵֽׁם׃
And David went up, and all Israel, to Baalah, that is, to Kirjath-jearim, which belonged to Judah, to bring up thence the ark of God the LORD, that dwelleth between the cherubims, whose name is called on it.
