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:
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 goeth out from Bethel to Luza: and passeth the border of Archi, to Ataroth,
O sitekwara Betel (ya bụ Luz), gafee ruo Atarọt, ebe ndị Akai bi.
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:
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 Manasses and Ephraim the children of Joseph possessed it.
Ụmụ Josef bụ Ifrem, na Manase nwetara ihe nketa ha.
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.
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 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.
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 it goeth down from Janoe into Ataroth and Naaratha: and it cometh to Jericho, and goeth out to the Jordan.
O sitere na Janoa gbadaa ruo Atarọt, na Naara, bịaruo Jeriko, gafee, kwụsị nʼosimiri Jọdan.
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.
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 And there were cities with their villages separated for the children of Ephraim in the midst of the possession of the children of Manasses.
E tinyere obodo ukwu na obodo nta niile ekepụtara iche nʼihi ebo Ifrem nʼetiti ihe nketa ụmụ Manase.
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.
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.
