約書亞記 16

1 若瑟的子孫抽籤分得的土地，從耶利哥對面的約旦河起，到耶利哥東面的水源，沿著曠野，由耶利哥向上到貝特爾山區，

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 再由貝特耳路次，沿著阿爾基人的邊境，直到下貝特曷龍的邊境，以迄於革則爾，直達於海邊邊境

It went out from Bethel to Luz, and passed along to the border of the Archites to Ataroth;

3 這是若瑟的兒子默納協和厄弗辣因分得的產業。

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 這是若望的兒子默納協和厄弗辣因分得的產業。

The children of Joseph, Manasseh and Ephraim, took their inheritance.

5 以下是厄弗辣因子孫按照家族分得的土地：他們產業的邊界，東面是阿塔洛特阿達爾，直到上貝特曷龍，

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 直達於海。北端是米革默塔特，由此向東轉向塔納特史羅，越過雅諾亞東部，

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 再由雅諾亞下至阿塔洛特和納阿辣，經耶利哥直達約旦河。

It went down from Janoah to Ataroth, to Naarah, reached to Jericho, and went out at the Jordan.

8 又從塔普亞往西到卡納谷，直達於海：以上是厄弗辣因子孫按照家族分得的產業。

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 此外，屬默納協子孫的產業中，還有給厄弗辣因子孫保留的城市──城市和所屬的村鎮。

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 但是他們未能將住在革則爾的客納罕人趕走，因此客納罕人直到今天還住在厄弗辣因人中間，充當苦役。

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 labour.
