Josua 16
1 Og Lodden udkom for Josefs Børn: Fra Jordanen ved Jeriko, ved Vandet fra Jeriko mod Østen, den Ørk, som gaar op fra Jeriko til Bjerget ved Bethel.
The lot came out for the descendants 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 Og Landemærket gaar videre fra Bethel til Lus og gaar igennem til Arkiternes Landemærke til Ataroth.
It went out from Bethel to Luz, and passed along to the border of the Archites at Ataroth;
3 Og det gaar ned mod Vest til Jaflethiternes Landemærke, indtil det nedre Beth-Horons Landemærke og indtil Geser, og dets Udgang er til Havet.
and it went down westward to the border of the Japhletites, to the border of Lower Beth Horon, even to Gezer; and ended at the sea.
4 Og dette arvede Josefs Børn, Manasse og Efraim.
The descendants of Joseph, Manasseh and Ephraim, took their inheritance.
5 Og Efraims Børns Landemærke efter deres Slægter, deres Arvs Landemærke var mod Østen, fra Ataroth-Addar indtil det øvre Beth-Horon.
This was the border of the descendants of Ephraim according to their families. The border of their inheritance eastward was Ataroth Addar, to Upper Beth Horon.
6 Og Landemærket gaar i Vesten ud fra Nordsiden af Mikmethath, og Landemærket gaar omkring i Øster til Thaanath-Silo, og det gaar forbi den, Østen for Janoa.
The border went out westward at Michmethath on the north of Termah. The border turned about eastward to Taanath Shiloh, and passed along it on the east of Janoah.
7 Og det kommer ned fra Janoa til Ataroth og Naara og skyder op mod Jeriko og gaar ud til Jordan.
It went down from Janoah to Ataroth, to Naaratah, reached to Jericho, and went out at the Jordan.
8 Fra Thappua gaar Landemærket i Vester til Bækken Kana; og dets Udgang er til Havet; dette er Efraims Børns Stammes Arv efter deres Slægter.
From Tappuah the border went along westward to Wadi Kanah; and ended at the sea. This is the inheritance of the tribe of the descendants of Ephraim according to their families;
9 Hertil kom de Stæder, som vare udlagte for Efraims Børn midt iblandt Manasse Børns Arv, alle Stæderne og deres Landsbyer.
together with the cities which were set apart for the descendants of Ephraim in the midst of the inheritance of the descendants of Manasseh, all the cities with their villages.
10 Og de fordreve ikke Kananiten, som boede i Geser; men Kananiten boede iblandt Efraim indtil denne Dag og blev en skatskyldig Tjener.
They did not drive out the Canaanites who lived in Gezer; but the Canaanites dwell in the midst of Ephraim to this day, and have become servants to do forced labor.
