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.
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 And [the border] went from Bethel to Luz, and passed to the border of the Archites to Ataroth,
O sitekwara Betel (ya bụ Luz), gafee ruo Atarọt, ebe ndị Akai bi.
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.
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 And the children of Joseph, Manasseh and Ephraim, took their inheritance.
Ụmụ Josef bụ Ifrem, na Manase nwetara ihe nketa ha.
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;
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 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,
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 and went down from Janohah to Ataroth and Naarath, and touched upon Jericho, and went out to the Jordan.
O sitere na Janoa gbadaa ruo Atarọt, na Naara, bịaruo Jeriko, gafee, kwụsị nʼosimiri Jọdan.
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,
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 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.
E tinyere obodo ukwu na obodo nta niile ekepụtara iche nʼihi ebo Ifrem nʼetiti ihe nketa ụmụ Manase.
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.
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.
