Joshua 16

1 And the lot of the sons of Joseph fell from the Jordan over against Jericho and the waters thereof, on the east: the wilderness which goeth up from Jericho to the mountain of Bethel:

١ وَخَرَجَتِ ٱلْقُرْعَةُ لِبَنِي يُوسُفَ مِنْ أُرْدُنِّ أَرِيحَا إِلَى مَاءِ أَرِيحَا نَحْوَ ٱلشُّرُوقِ إِلَى ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ ٱلصَّاعِدَةِ مِنْ أَرِيحَا فِي جَبَلِ بَيْتِ إِيلَ.

2 And goeth out from Bethel to Luza: and passeth the border of Archi, to Ataroth,

٢ وَخَرَجَتْ مِنْ بَيْتِ إِيلَ إِلَى لُوزَ وَعَبَرَتْ إِلَى تُخْمِ ٱلْأَرَكِيِّينَ إِلَى عَطَارُوتَ،

3 And goeth down westward, by the border of Jephleti, unto the borders of Beth-horon the nether, and to Gazer: and the countries of it are ended by the great sea:

٣ وَنَزَلَتْ غَرْبًا إِلَى تُخْمِ ٱلْيَفْلَطِيِّينَ إِلَى تُخْمِ بَيْتِ حُورُونَ ٱلسُّفْلَى، وَإِلَى جَازَرَ، وَكَانَتْ مَخَارِجُهَا عِنْدَ ٱلْبَحْرِ.

4 And Manasses and Ephraim the children of Joseph possessed it.

٤ فَمَلَكَ ٱبْنَا يُوسُفَ مَنَسَّى وَأَفْرَايِمُ.

5 And the border of the children of Ephraim was according to their kindreds: and their possession towards the east was Ataroth-addar unto Beth-horon the upper.

٥ وَكَانَ تُخْمُ بَنِي أَفْرَايِمَ حَسَبَ عَشَائِرِهِمْ. وَكَانَ تُخْمُ نَصِيبِهِمْ شَرْقًا: عَطَارُوتَ أَدَّارَ إِلَى بَيْتِ حُورُونَ ٱلْعُلْيَا.

6 And the confines go out unto the sea: but Machmethath looketh to the north, and it goeth round the borders eastward into Thanath-selo: and passeth along on the east side to Janoe.

٦ وَخَرَجَ ٱلتُّخْمُ نَحْوَ ٱلْبَحْرِ إِلَى ٱلْمَكْمَتَةِ شِمَالًا، وَدَارَ ٱلتُّخْمُ شَرْقًا إِلَى تَآنَةِ شِيلُوهَ وَعَبَرَهَا شَرْقِيَّ يَنُوحَةَ.

7 And it goeth down from Janoe into Ataroth and Naaratha: and it cometh to Jericho, and goeth out to the Jordan.

٧ وَنَزَلَ مِنْ يَنُوحَةَ إِلَى عَطَارُوتَ وَنَعَرَاتِ وَوَصَلَ إِلَى أَرِيحَا وَخَرَجَ إِلَى ٱلْأُرْدُنِّ.

8 From Taphua it passeth on towards the sea into the valley of reeds, and the goings out thereof are at the most salt sea. This is the possession of the tribe of the children of Ephraim by their families.

٨ وَجَازَ ٱلتُّخْمُ مِنْ تَفُّوحَ غَرْبًا إِلَى وَادِي قَانَةَ، وَكَانَتْ مَخَارِجُهُ عِنْدَ ٱلْبَحْرِ.

9 And there were cities with their villages separated for the children of Ephraim in the midst of the possession of the children of Manasses.

٩ هَذَا هُوَ نَصِيبُ سِبْطِ بَنِي أَفْرَايِمَ حَسَبَ عَشَائِرِهِمْ مَعَ ٱلْمُدُنِ ٱلْمُفْرَزَةِ لِبَنِي أَفْرَايِمَ فِي وَسَطِ نَصِيبِ بَنِي مَنَسَّى. جَمِيعُ ٱلْمُدُنِ وَضِيَاعِهَا.

10 And the children of Ephraim slew not the Chanaanite, who dwelt in Gazer: and the Chanaanite dwelt in the midst of Ephraim until this day, paying tribute.

١٠ فَلَمْ يَطْرُدُوا ٱلْكَنْعَانِيِّينَ ٱلسَّاكِنِينَ فِي جَازَرَ. فَسَكَنَ ٱلْكَنْعَانِيُّونَ فِي وَسَطِ أَفْرَايِمَ إِلَى هَذَا ٱلْيَوْمِ، وَكَانُوا عَبِيدًا تَحْتَ ٱلْجِزْيَةِ.
