1 And the lot of the children of Joseph fell from Jordan by Jericho, unto the water of Jericho on the east, to the wilderness that goeth up from Jericho throughout mount Beth-el, 2 And goeth out from Beth-el to Luz, and passeth along unto the borders of Archi to Ataroth, 3 And goeth down westward to the coast of Japhleti, unto the coast of Beth-horon the nether, and to Gezer: and the goings out thereof are at the sea. 4 So the children of Joseph, Manasseh and Ephraim, took their inheritance.
5 And the border of the children of Ephraim according to their families was thus: even the border of their inheritance on the east side was Ataroth-addar, unto Beth-horon the upper; 6 And the border went out toward the sea to Michmethah on the north side; and the border went about eastward unto Taanath-shiloh, and passed by it on the east to Janohah; 7 And it went down from Janohah to Ataroth, and to Naarath, and came to Jericho, and went out at Jordan. 8 The border went out from Tappuah westward unto the river Kanah; and the goings out thereof were at the sea. This is the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Ephraim by their families. 9 And the separate cities for the children of Ephraim were among the inheritance of the children of Manasseh, all the cities with their villages. 10 And they drave not out the Canaanites that dwelt in Gezer: but the Canaanites dwell among the Ephraimites unto this day, and serve under tribute.
1 约瑟的子孙抽签所得的地业, 是从靠近耶利哥的约旦河起, 到耶利哥东边的水泉, 经过从耶利哥上去的旷野, 进到在山地的伯特利;
2 又从伯特利到路斯, 经过亚基人的境界亚他绿,
3 又向西下到押利提人的境界, 去到下伯.和仑和基色的境界, 直通到海。
4 约瑟的儿子玛拿西和以法莲, 也得了他们的产业。
5 以下是以法莲人按着家族所得的境界: 他们的产业在东方的疆界, 是亚他绿.亚达, 直到上伯.和仑。
6 向西伸展到北面的密米他, 又向东绕到他纳.示罗, 经过雅挪哈的东边;
7 从雅挪哈下到亚他绿, 又到拿拉, 和耶利哥接壤, 伸展到约旦河;
8 又从他普亚向西行, 到加拿河, 直通到海; 这就是以法莲支派按着家族所得的产业。
9 此外在玛拿西人的产业中, 还有些城镇分给以法莲人的, 这些城镇都包括属于它们的村庄在内。
10 可是他们没有把住在基色的迦南人赶走, 于是迦南人住在以法莲中间, 直到今日, 成了作苦工的奴仆。
