< Joshua 17 >

1 Now this was the allotment for the tribe of Manasseh as Joseph’s firstborn son, namely for Machir the firstborn of Manasseh and father of the Gileadites, who had received Gilead and Bashan because Machir was a man of war.
Soge eno Yodane Hano eso dabe la: idi ilia da Yousefe ea magobo mano Ma: na: se amo egaga fi mogili ilima ilegei. Gilia: de ea eda amo Ma: ige da Ma: na: se ea magobo mano. E da gegesu ganodini mae beda: iwane gegei. Amaiba: le, Mousese da Yodane eso mabadi la: idi soge amo Gilia: de amola Ba: isa: ne ema i dagoi.
2 So this allotment was for the rest of the descendants of Manasseh—the clans of Abiezer, Helek, Asriel, Shechem, Hepher, and Shemida. These are the other male descendants of the clans of Manasseh son of Joseph.
Be soge amo Yodane Hano eso dabe la: idi diala amo Ma: na: se fi eno da lai dagoi. Amo fi da Ma: na: se (Yousefe egefe) amo egaga fi. Ilia dio da A: ibaise, Hilege, A:seliele, Siegeme, Hife amola Siemaida. Amola ilia da ilia sosogo fi ilima bisilua gala.
3 But Zelophehad son of Hepher (the son of Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh) had no sons but only daughters. These are the names of his daughters: Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah.
Siloufiha: de (e da Hife ea mano amola Hife da Gilia: de ea mano. Gilia: de da Ma: ige ea mano amola Ma: ige da Ma: na: se ea mano) da dunu mano hame. E da uda mano fawane lai. Ilia dio da Mala, Nowa, Hogola, Miliga amola Desa.
4 They approached Eleazar the priest, Joshua son of Nun, and the leaders, and said, “The LORD commanded Moses to give us an inheritance among our brothers.” So Joshua gave them an inheritance among their father’s brothers, in keeping with the command of the LORD.
Ilia da Elia: isa (gobele salasu dunu), Yosiua (Nane ea mano) amola Isala: ili ouligisu dunu ilima misini, amane sia: i, “Hina Gode da Mousesema, e da nini amo ninia dunu fi defele, soge mogili ninima ima: ne sia: i.” Amaiba: le, Hina Gode Ea hamoma: ne sia: i defele, ilia da dunu fi defele, Siloufiha: de ea idiwilali ilima soge i.
5 Thus ten shares fell to Manasseh, in addition to the land of Gilead and Bashan beyond the Jordan,
Amaiba: le, Eso Mabe Ma: na: se fi da Yodane Hano eso mabe la: idi amoga Gilia: de amola Ba: isa: ne soge lai. Amola ilia da soge fifi nabuane gala eno lai.
6 because the daughters of Manasseh received an inheritance among his sons. And the land of Gilead belonged to the rest of the sons of Manasseh.
Bai Ma: na: se egaga fi dunu da soge lai amola egaga fi uda da soge eno lai.
7 Now the border of Manasseh went from Asher to Michmethath near Shechem, then southward to include the inhabitants of En-tappuah.
Ma: na: se ea soge alalo da A: sie fi ilia soge amoga asili, Migimida moilai (Siegeme moilai bai bagadega eso mabadi la: idi) amoga doaga: i. Amalu, alalo da ga (south) asili, Eneda: biua dunu fi ilia soge sisiga: i.
8 The region of Tappuah belonged to Manasseh, but Tappuah itself, on the border of Manasseh, belonged to Ephraim.
Soge da Da: biua moilai bai bagadega sisiga: le dialu da Ma: na: se egaga fi ilia soge. Be Da: biua moilai bai bagade da soge alalo amoga dialu amola moilai amo Ifala: ime egaga fi da gagui.
9 From there the border continued southward to the Brook of Kanah. There were cities belonging to Ephraim among the cities of Manasseh, but the border of Manasseh was on the north side of the brook and ended at the Sea.
Alalo da asili Gana Hano amoga doaga: i. Moilai amo hano ga (south) dialu da Ifala: ime ea moilai. Be soge amo Ma: na: se da gagui. Ma: na: se soge alalo da hano ga (north) asili, Medidela: inia Hano Wayabo Bagade amoga doaga: i.
10 Ephraim’s territory was to the south, and Manasseh’s was to the north, having the Sea as its border and adjoining Asher on the north and Issachar on the east.
Ifala: ime da ga (south) dialu amola Ma: na: se da ga (north) dialu. Ilia eso dabe alalo da Medidela: inia Hano Wayabo Bagade. A: sie da ga (north) eso dabe la: idi dialu amola Isaga da ga (north) eso mabadi la: idi dialu.
11 Within Issachar and Asher, Manasseh was assigned Beth-shean, Ibleam, Dor (that is, Naphath), Endor, Taanach, and Megiddo, each with their surrounding settlements.
Ma: na: se da Isaga amola A: sie ela soge ganodini moilai bai bagade gagui galu. Amo da Bede Sia: ne, Ibilia: me, Do (amo da hano wayabo bagade bega: ), Enedo, Da: ina: ge, Megidou amola moilai ilima sisiga: le dialu.
12 But the descendants of Manasseh were unable to occupy these cities, because the Canaanites were determined to stay in this land.
Be Ma: na: se fi dunu da Ga: ina: ne dunu amo moilai bai bagade ganodini esalu amo gadili sefasimusa: hamedei agoane ba: i.
13 However, when the Israelites grew stronger, they put the Canaanites to forced labor; but they failed to drive them out completely.
Isala: ili dunu ilia gasa da heda: i be amo dunu hame sefasi. Be ilia da amo dunu udigili hawa: hamomusa: logei.
14 Then the sons of Joseph said to Joshua, “Why have you given us only one portion as an inheritance? We have many people, because the LORD has blessed us abundantly.”
Yousefe egaga fi dunu da Yosiuama amane sia: i, “Di da abuliba: le ninima soge afadafa fawane ibala: ? Hina Gode da nini hahawane fidibiba: le, ninia fi da bagade hamoi dagoi.”
15 Joshua answered them, “If you have so many people that the hill country of Ephraim is too small for you, go to the forest and clear for yourself an area in the land of the Perizzites and the Rephaim.”
Yosiua da ilima bu adole i, “Dilia da dunu bagohameba: le amola Ifala: ime agolo soge da fonobahadi ba: beba: le, defea, iwila soge amo Belesaide dunu amola Lefa: ime dunu ilia sogega asili, moi dogone, dilia sogebi hahamoma.”
16 “The hill country is not enough for us,” they replied, “and all the Canaanites who live in the valley have iron chariots, both in Beth-shean with its towns and in the Valley of Jezreel.”
Ilia da bu adole i, “Dafawane! Agolo soge da nini huluane fima: ne fonobahadi ba: sa. Be Ga: ina: naide dunu umi sogega esala da ouli sa: liode gala. Ilia da Bede Sia: ne amola Yeseliele Fago amo ganodini esala amola gasa bagade ba: sa.”
17 So Joshua said to the house of Joseph—to Ephraim and Manasseh—“You have many people and great strength. You shall not have just one allotment,
Yosiua da Ifala: ime fi amola Eso Dabe Ma: na: se fi ilima amane sia: i, “Dafawane! Dilia da dunu bagohame fi. Amola dilia da gasa bagade. Dilia soge fifi amo afadafa baligimu da defea.
18 because the hill country will be yours as well. It is a forest; clear it, and its farthest limits will be yours. Although the Canaanites have iron chariots and although they are strong, you can drive them out.”
Dilia da agolo soge huluane lamu da defea. Amo da iwila gala, be dilia da ifa huluane a: le fasili huluane lamu. Dafawane! Ga: ina: ne dunu da gasa bagade amola ilia da ouli sa: liode gala. Be amo mae dawa: le, dilia da amo dunu huluane gadili sefasimu.”
