< Joshua 17 >
1 And this lot fell to the tribe of Manasses (for he is the firstborn of Joseph) to Machir the firstborn of Manasses the father of Galaad, who was a warlike man, and had for possession Galaad and Basan.
Èyí ní ìpín ẹ̀yà Manase tí í ṣe àkọ́bí Josẹfu, fún Makiri, àkọ́bí Manase. Makiri sì ni baba ńlá àwọn ọmọ Gileadi, tí ó ti gba Gileadi àti Baṣani nítorí pé àwọn ọmọ Makiri jẹ́ jagunjagun ńlá.
2 And to the rest of the children of Manasses according to their families: to the children of Abiezer, and to the children of Helec, and to the children of Esriel, and to the children of Sechem, and to the children of Hepher, and to the children of Semida: these are the male children of Manasses the son of Joseph, by their kindreds.
Nítorí náà ìpín yìí wà fún ìyókù àwọn ènìyàn Manase: ní agbo ilé Abieseri, Heleki, Asrieli, Ṣekemu, Heferi àti Ṣemida. Ìwọ̀nyí ní àwọn ọmọ ọkùnrin Manase ọmọ Josẹfu ní agbo ilé wọn.
3 But Salphaad the son of Hepher the son of Galaad the son of Machir the son of Manasses had no sons, but only daughters: whose names are these, Maala and Noa and Hegla and Melcha and Thersa.
Nísinsin yìí Selofehadi ọmọ Heferi, ọmọ Gileadi, ọmọ Makiri, ọmọ Manase, kò ní ọmọkùnrin, bí kò ṣe àwọn ọmọbìnrin, tí orúkọ wọn jẹ́: Mahila, Noa, Hogla, Milka àti Tirsa.
4 And they came in the presence of Eleazar the priest and of Josue the son of Nun, and of the princes, saying: The Lord commanded by the hand of Moses, that a possession should be given us in the midst of our brethren. And he gave them according to the commandment of the Lord a possession amongst the brethren of their father.
Wọ́n sì lọ bá Eleasari àlùfáà, Joṣua ọmọ Nuni, àti àwọn olórí wí pé, “Olúwa pàṣẹ fún Mose láti fún wa ní ìní ní àárín àwọn arákùnrin wa.” Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Joṣua fún wọn ní ìní pẹ̀lú àwọn arákùnrin baba wọn, gẹ́gẹ́ bí àṣẹ Olúwa.
5 And there fell ten portions to Manasses, beside the land of Galaad and Basan beyond the Jordan.
Ìpín ilẹ̀ Manase sì jẹ́ ìsọ̀rí mẹ́wàá ní ẹ̀bá Gileadi àti Baṣani ìlà-oòrùn Jordani,
6 For the daughters of Manasses possessed inheritance in the midst of his sons. And the land of Galaad fell to the lot of the rest of the children of Manasses.
nítorí tí àwọn ọmọbìnrin ẹ̀yà Manase gba ìní ní àárín àwọn ọmọkùnrin. Ilẹ̀ Gileadi sì jẹ́ ti ìyókù àwọn ọmọ Manase.
7 And the border of Manasses was from Aser, Machmethath which looketh towards Sichem: and it goeth out on the right hand by the inhabitants of the fountain of Taphua.
Agbègbè Manase sì fẹ̀ láti Aṣeri títí dé Mikmeta ní ìlà-oòrùn Ṣekemu. Ààlà rẹ̀ sì lọ sí ìhà gúúsù títí tó fi dé ibi tí àwọn ènìyàn ń gbé ní Tapua,
8 For the lot of Manasses took in the land of Taphua, which is on the borders of Manasses, and belongs to the children of Ephraim.
(Manase lo ni ilẹ̀ Tapua, ṣùgbọ́n Tapua fúnra rẹ̀ to wà ni ààlà ilẹ̀ Manase jẹ ti àwọn ará Efraimu.)
9 And the border goeth down to the valley of the reeds, to the south of the torrent of the cities of Ephraim, which are in the midst of the cities of Manasses: the border of Manasses is on the north side of the torrent, and the outgoings of it are at the sea:
Ààlà rẹ̀ sì sọ̀kalẹ̀ lọ odò Kana, ní ìhà gúúsù odò náà. Àwọn ìlú tí ó jẹ́ ti Efraimu wà ní àárín àwọn ìlú Manase, ṣùgbọ́n ààlà Manase ni ìhà àríwá odò náà, ó sì yọ sí Òkun.
10 So that the possession of Ephraim is on the south, and on the north that of Manasses, and the sea is the border of both, and they are joined together in the tribe of Aser on the north, and in the tribe of Issachar on the east.
Ìhà gúúsù ilẹ̀ náà jẹ́ ti Efraimu, ṣùgbọ́n ìhà àríwá jẹ́ ti Manase. Ilẹ̀ Manase dé Òkun, Aṣeri sì jẹ́ ààlà rẹ̀ ní àríwá, nígbà tí Isakari jẹ́ ààlà ti ìlà-oòrùn.
11 And the inheritance of Manasses in Issachar and in Aser, was Bethsan and its villages, and Jeblaam with its villages, and the inhabitants of Dor, with the towns thereof: the inhabitants also of Endor with the villages thereof: and in like manner the inhabitants of Thenac with the villages thereof: and the inhabitants of Mageddo with their villages, and the third part of the city of Nopheth.
Ní àárín Isakari àti Aṣeri, Manase tún ni Beti-Ṣeani, Ibleamu àti àwọn ènìyàn Dori, Endori, Taanaki àti Megido pẹ̀lú àwọn abúlé tí ó yí wọn ká (ẹ̀kẹ́ta nínú orúkọ wọn ní Nafoti).
12 Neither could the children of Manasses overthrow these cities, but the Chanaanite began to dwell in his land.
Síbẹ̀, àwọn ọmọ Manase kò lè gba àwọn ìlú wọ̀nyí, nítorí àwọn ará Kenaani ti pinnu láti gbé ní ilẹ̀ náà.
13 But after that the children of Israel were grown strong, they subdued the Chanaanites, and made them their tributaries, and they did not kill them.
Ṣùgbọ́n nígbà tí àwọn ará Israẹli di alágbára, wọ́n mú àwọn ọmọ Kenaani sìn, ṣùgbọ́n wọn kò lé wọn jáde pátápátá.
14 And the children of Joseph spoke to Josue, and said: Why hast thou given me but one lot and one portion to possess, whereas I am of so great a multitude, and the Lord hath blessed me?
Àwọn ọmọ Josẹfu sì wí fún Joṣua pé, “Èéṣe tí ìwọ fi fún wa ní ìpín ilẹ̀ kan àti ìdákan ní ìní? Nítorí àwa jẹ́ ọ̀pọ̀ ènìyàn tí Olúwa ti bùkún lọ́pọ̀lọ́pọ̀.”
15 And Josue said to them: If thou be a great people, go up into the woodland, and cut down room for thyself in the land of the Pherezite and the Raphaims: because the possession of mount Ephraim is too narrow for thee.
Joṣua dá wọn lóhùn pé, “Bí ẹ bá pọ̀ bẹ́ẹ̀, tí òkè ìlú Efraimu bá kéré fún yin, ẹ gòkè lọ sí igbó kí ẹ sì ṣán ilẹ̀ òkè fún ara yín ní ibẹ̀ ní ilẹ̀ àwọn ará Peresi àti ará Refaimu.”
16 And the children of Joseph answered him: We cannot go up to the mountains, for the Chanaanites that dwell in the low lands, wherein are situate Bethsan with its towns, and Jezrael in the midst of the valley, have chariots of iron.
Àwọn ènìyàn Josẹfu dáhùn pé, “Òkè kò tó fún wa, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni gbogbo àwọn ará Kenaani tí ó gbé ní pẹ̀tẹ́lẹ̀, àti gbogbo àwọn tí ń bẹ ní Beti-Ṣeani àti àwọn ìletò àti àwọn tí ń gbé ní àfonífojì Jesreeli ní kẹ̀kẹ́ ogun onírin.”
17 And Josue said to the house of Joseph, to Ephraim and Manasses: Thou art a great people, and of great strength, thou shalt not have one lot only:
Ṣùgbọ́n Joṣua sọ fún àwọn ilé Josẹfu: fún Efraimu àti Manase pé, “Lóòtítọ́ ni ẹ pọ̀ lọ́pọ̀lọ́pọ̀, ẹ sì jẹ́ alágbára. Ẹ̀yin kí yóò sì ní ìpín kan ṣoṣo.
18 But thou shalt pass to the mountain, and shalt cut down the wood, and make thyself room to dwell in: and mayst proceed farther, when thou hast destroyed the Chanaanites, who as thou sayest have iron chariots, and are very strong.
Ṣùgbọ́n ilẹ̀ orí òkè igbó jẹ́ tiyín pẹ̀lú. Ẹ ṣán ilẹ̀ náà, òpin rẹ̀ yóò jẹ́ tiyín pátápátá. Bí ó tilẹ̀ jẹ́ pé àwọn ará Kenaani ní kẹ̀kẹ́ ogun irin, tí ó sì jẹ́ pé wọ́n ní agbára, síbẹ̀ ẹ lè lé wọn jáde.”
