1 The lot came out for the children of Joseph from the Jordan at Jericho, at the waters of Jericho on the east, even the wilderness, going up from Jericho through the hill country to Bethel. 2 It went out from Bethel to Luz, and passed along to the border of the Archites to Ataroth; 3 and it went down westward to the border of the Japhletites, to the border of Beth Horon the lower, and on to Gezer; and ended at the sea.

4 The children of Joseph, Manasseh and Ephraim, took their inheritance. 5 This was the border of the children of Ephraim according to their families. The border of their inheritance eastward was Ataroth Addar, to Beth Horon the upper. 6 The border went out westward at Michmethath on the north. The border turned about eastward to Taanath Shiloh, and passed along it on the east of Janoah. 7 It went down from Janoah to Ataroth, to Naarah, reached to Jericho, and went out at the Jordan. 8 From Tappuah the border went along westward to the brook of Kanah; and ended at the sea. This is the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Ephraim according to their families; 9 together with the cities which were set apart for the children of Ephraim in the middle of the inheritance of the children of Manasseh, all the cities with their villages. 10 They didn’t drive out the Canaanites who lived in Gezer; but the Canaanites dwell in the territory of Ephraim to this day, and have become servants to do forced labor.

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。
