< Joshua 16 >

1 The allotment for the descendants of Joseph extended from the Jordan at Jericho to the waters of Jericho on the east, through the wilderness that goes up from Jericho into the hill country of Bethel.
Ala e kenyere ụmụ ụmụ Josef bidoro nʼosimiri Jọdan nʼakụkụ ọwụwa anyanwụ Jeriko gbatịrị ruo nʼọzara. O sitere na Jeriko gbagoo ala ugwu ugwu ahụ, ruokwa Betel.
2 It went on from Bethel (that is, Luz) and proceeded to the border of the Archites in Ataroth.
O sitekwara Betel (ya bụ Luz), gafee ruo Atarọt, ebe ndị Akai bi.
3 Then it descended westward to the border of the Japhletites as far as the border of Lower Beth-horon and on to Gezer, and it ended at the Sea.
Site nʼebe ahụ, ọ gbatịrị nʼakụkụ ọdịda anyanwụ rute ala ndị Jaflet, ruo ala mgbada mgbada Bet-Horon. O si nʼebe ahụ ruo Gaza, tutu kwụsị nʼosimiri Mediterenịa.
4 So Ephraim and Manasseh, the sons of Joseph, received their inheritance.
Ụmụ Josef bụ Ifrem, na Manase nwetara ihe nketa ha.
5 This was the territory of the descendants of Ephraim by their clans: The border of their inheritance went from Ataroth-addar in the east to Upper Beth-horon
Ndị a bụ ala nke ikwu dị iche iche dị nʼebo Ifrem nwetara. Oke ala ha nʼakụkụ ọwụwa anyanwụ malitere nʼAtarọt-Ada. Site nʼebe ahụ, o ruru nʼakụkụ elu elu Bet-Horon;
6 and out toward the Sea. From Michmethath on the north it turned eastward toward Taanath-shiloh and passed by it to Janoah on the east.
sitekwa nʼebe ahụ ruo nʼosimiri Mediterenịa. Oke ala ha nʼakụkụ ugwu malitere na Mikmetat, gafee nʼakụkụ ọwụwa anyanwụ ruo Taanat Shaịlo, gafee ya ruo na Janoa.
7 From Janoah it went down to Ataroth and Naarah, and then reached Jericho and came out at the Jordan.
O sitere na Janoa gbadaa ruo Atarọt, na Naara, bịaruo Jeriko, gafee, kwụsị nʼosimiri Jọdan.
8 From Tappuah the border went westward to the Brook of Kanah and ended at the Sea. This was the inheritance of the clans of the tribe of Ephraim,
Oke ala ahụ nʼakụkụ ọdịda anyanwụ sitere na Tapụọa gaa ruo iyi Kana, na ruo nʼosimiri Mediterenịa. Nke a bụ ala ebo Ifrem ketara, dịka ikwu ha si dị.
9 along with all the cities and villages set apart for the descendants of Ephraim within the inheritance of Manasseh.
E tinyere obodo ukwu na obodo nta niile ekepụtara iche nʼihi ebo Ifrem nʼetiti ihe nketa ụmụ Manase.
10 But they did not drive out the Canaanites who lived in Gezer. So the Canaanites dwell among the Ephraimites to this day, but they are forced laborers.
Ma ha achụpụghị ndị Kenan ndị bi na Gaza. Nʼihi nke a, ndị Kenan binyere ndị Ifrem ruo taa, ma e mere ka ha bụrụ ndị ọrụ ngo.
