< Joshua 16 >
1 And the lot came forth for the children of Joseph from the Jordan of Jericho as far as the waters of Jericho eastwards, to the wilderness which goes up from Jericho to the hill-country of Bethel.
Joseph koca rhoek ham hmulung a yueh vaengah Jordan khocuk Jerikho kah Jerikho tui kaepah khosoek la luei tih Jerikho lamloh Bethel tlang la,
2 And [the border] went from Bethel to Luz, and passed to the border of the Archites to Ataroth,
Bethel lamloh Luz la cet tih Arkii Ataroth khorhi la kat.
3 and went down westward to the border of the Japhletites, as far as the border of the lower Beth-horon, and to Gezer; and ended at the sea.
Te phoeiah khotlak kah Japhletee khorhi la suntla tih a dang Bethhoron neh Gezer khorhi, tuili kah a hmoi a hmoi ah om uh.
4 And the children of Joseph, Manasseh and Ephraim, took their inheritance.
Te tlam te ni Joseph koca Manasseh neh Ephraim te phaeng la om.
5 And the border of the children of Ephraim was according to their families; the border of their inheritance eastwards was Ataroth-Addar as far as the upper Beth-horon;
Ephraim koca ah amih cako kah khorhi aka om tah khocuk ah Atarothaddar lamkah Bethhoron kholu due te amih kah rho khorhi la om.
6 and the border went forth westwards to Micmethath on the north; and the border turned eastwards to Taanath-Shiloh, and passed by it eastwards to Janohah,
Te phoeiah tlangpuei kah Mikmthath tuili rhi te a paan tih khocuk Taanathshiloh rhi la a keen phoeiah khocuk kah Janoah la kat.
7 and went down from Janohah to Ataroth and Naarath, and touched upon Jericho, and went out to the Jordan.
Te phoeiah Janoah lamkah Ataroth neh Naarah la aka suntla te Jerikho a doo tih Jordan la pawk.
8 From Tappuah the border went westwards to the torrent Kanah, and ended at the sea. This is the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Ephraim according to their families,
Tappuah lamloh tuili rhi ah Kanah soklong la cet tih tuitunli ah a bawtnah om. He Ephraim ca rhoek kah koca rhoek ah amah cako kah rho la om.
9 with the cities that were set apart for the children of Ephraim in the midst of the inheritance of the children of Manasseh, all the cities and their hamlets.
Hekah khopuei he Manasseh ca rhoek kah rho la aka om khopuei vangca rhoek boeih khui ah Ephraim ca rhoek ham khotlueh la om.
10 But they did not dispossess the Canaanites that dwelt at Gezer; and the Canaanites dwell in the midst of Ephraim to this day, and serve under tribute.
Tedae Gezer kah khosa Kanaani te tah haek uh pawh. Te dongah Kanaani loh Ephraim lakli ah tihnin due kho a sak tih aka thotat saldong la om.
