Joshua 17
1 This was also the lot of the tribe of Manasseh: for he was the first borne of Ioseph, to wit, of Machir the first borne of Manasseh, and the father of Gilead: nowe because he was a man of warre, he had Gilead and Bashan.
Nke a bụ oke e kenyere ndị ebo Manase, bụ ọkpara Josef, ya bụ Makia ọkpara Manase, onye bụ nna nna ndị Gilead. Onye natara ala Gilead na Bashan, nʼihi na ndị agbụrụ Makia bụ dike nʼagha.
2 And also of the rest of the sonnes of Manasseh by their families, euen of the sonnes of Abiezer, and of the sonnes of Helek, and of ye sonnes of Azriel, and of the sonnes of Shechem, and of the sonnes of Hepher, and of the sonnes of Shemida: these were the males of Manasseh, the sonne of Ioseph according to their families.
Ya mere, oke a dịịrị ndị fọdụrụ nʼebo Manase dịka ezinaụlọ ha si dị. Agbụrụ Abieza, Helek, Asriel, Shekem, Hefa na Shemida. Ndị a bụ ụmụ ndị ikom agbụrụ Manase, nwa Josef, dịka ikwu ha si dị.
3 But Zelophehad the sonne of Hephir, the sonne of Gilead, the sonne of Machir, ye sonne of Manasseh, had no sonnes, but daughters: and these are the names of his daughters, Mahlah, and Noah, Hoglah, Milcah and Tirzah:
Ma Zelofehad, nwa Hefa, nwa Gilead, nwa Makia, nwa Manase, amụtaghị ụmụ ndị ikom kama ọ mụtara naanị ụmụ ndị inyom, ndị aha ha bụ nke a: Mahla, Noa, Hogla, Milka na Tịaza.
4 Which came before Eleazar the Priest, and before Ioshua the sonne of Nun, and before the princes, saying, The Lord commanded Moses to giue vs an inheritance among our brethren: therefore according to the commandement of the Lord he gaue them an inheritance among the brethren of their father.
Ndị inyom ndị a bịakwutere Elieza, onye nchụaja na Joshua nwa Nun, nʼihu ndị ndu ụmụ Izrel niile sị ha, “Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis sị ya kenye anyị ala nke anyị, dịka o si kenye ụmụ ndị ikom ikwu anyị.” Ya mere, dịka Onyenwe anyị nyere ya Mosis nʼiwu, Joshua nyere ha ihe nketa ruuru ha nʼetiti ụmụnne nna ha, dịka ndị ọzọ si keta.
5 And there fell ten portions to Manasseh, beside the land of Gilead and Bashan, which is on the other side Iorden,
Manase chịtara ala oke iri, tinyere Gilead, na Bashan nke dị nʼakụkụ ọwụwa anyanwụ Jọdan,
6 Because the daughters of Manasseh did inherite among his sonnes: and Manassehs other sonnes had the land of Gilead.
nʼihi na e mere ka ndị inyom Manase keta oke nʼetiti ndị ikom ebo Manase. Ala fọdụrụ na Gilead bụ ndị ikom ebo Manase nwe ya.
7 So the borders of Manasseh were from Asher to Michmethah that lieth before Shechem, and this border goeth on the right hand, euen vnto the inhabitants of En-tappuah.
Oke ala ebo Manase gbatịrị site nʼAsha ruo na Mikmetat, nke dị nʼakụkụ ọwụwa anyanwụ Shekem. Ọ gbatịkwara nʼakụkụ ndịda site nʼebe ahụ tinyere ndị bi nʼala En-Tapụọa.
8 The land of Tappuah belonged to Manasseh, but Tappuah beside the border of Manasseh belongeth to the sonnes of Ephraim.
Ala dị gburugburu Tapụọa bụ ala ebo Manase, ma obodo Tapụọa nʼonwe ya, nke dị nʼoke ala ebo Manase, bụ obodo ebo Ifrem.
9 Also this border goeth downe vnto the riuer Kanah Southward to the riuer: these cities of Ephraim are among the cities of Manasseh: and the border of Manasseh is on the Northside of the riuer, and the endes of it are at the Sea,
Oke ala ụmụ Manase gbatịrị ga ndịda ruo na mmiri iyi Kana. Ụfọdụ obodo ndị Ifrem dị nʼebe ahụ, nʼetiti obodo ndị Manase, kama oke ala ndị Manase nʼakụkụ ugwu iyi ahụ kwụsịrị nʼosimiri Mediterenịa.
10 The South perteyneth to Ephraim, and the North to Manasseh, and the Sea is his border: and they met together in Asher Northwarde, and in Issachar Eastward.
Ala dị na ndịda bụ nke e kenyere Ifrem, ma ala mgbago ugwu bụ nke Manase. Ala ndị Manase gbatịrị ruo nʼosimiri Mediterenịa ma ha na ndị Asha nwekọrọ oke ala nʼakụkụ ugwu, ebe ha na ndị Isaka nwere oke ala nʼakụkụ ọwụwa anyanwụ.
11 And Manasseh had in Issachar and in Asher, Beth-shean, and her townes, and Ibleam, and her townes, and the inhabitants of Dor with ye townes thereof, and the inhabitants of En-dor with the townes thereof, and the inhabitants of Thaanach with her townes, and the inhabitants of Megiddo with the townes of the same, euen three countreis.
Manase ka e nyere obodo ndị a, nke dị nʼala e nyere Isaka na Asha: obodo Bet-Shan, na Ibleam, na Doa, na Endoa, na Teanak, na Megido, na obodo nta niile gbara ha gburugburu. Obodo nke atọ bụ Nafọt.
12 Yet the children of Manasseh coulde not destroy those cities, but the Canaanites dwelled still in that land.
Ma ụmụ Manase enweghị ike ịchụpụ ndị Kenan bi nʼobodo ndị ahụ, nʼihi na ndị Kenan nọgidere bichie obodo ndị a.
13 Neuerthelesse, when the children of Israel were strong, they put the Canaanites vnder tribute, but cast them not out wholy.
Ma nʼikpeazụ, mgbe ụmụ Izrel ghọrọ ndị dị ike, ha achụpụghị ndị Kenan niile bi nʼobodo ndị a kpamkpam, kama ha mere ka ha bụrụ ndị na-ejere ụmụ Izrel ozi, dịka ndị ohu ha.
14 Then the children of Ioseph spake vnto Ioshua, saying, Why hast thou giuen me but one lot, and one portion to inherite, seeing I am a great people, for as much as the Lord hath blessed me hitherto?
Ma ụmụ ụmụ Josef sịrị Joshua, “Gịnị mere i ji nye anyị naanị otu ụzọ ala ka ọ bụrụ ihe nketa anyị? Ị hụrụ na Onyenwe anyị gọziri anyị mee ka ọnụọgụgụ anyị baa ụba.”
15 Ioshua then answered them, If thou be much people, get thee vp to the wood, and cut trees for thy selfe there in the lande of the Perizzites, and of the gyants, if mount Ephraim be too narowe for thee.
Joshua zara sị ha: “Ọ bụrụ na ala ugwu ugwu Ifrem agaghị ezuru unu nʼihi na unu bara ụba nʼọnụọgụgụ, gaanụ nʼoke ọhịa sụchasịa ala, nʼime ala ndị Periz, na nke ndị Refaim.”
16 Then the children of Ioseph saide, The mountaine will not be ynough for vs: and all the Canaanites that dwell in the lowe countrey haue charets of yron, aswell they in Beth-shean, and in the townes of the same, as they in the valley of Izreel.
Ụmụ Josef zara Joshua sị, “Ala ugwu ugwu a agaghị ezuru anyị. Ọzọ, ndị Kenan niile bi nʼala dị larịị nwere ụgbọala igwe, ma ndị niile bi na Bet-Shan, na ụmụ obodo nta ha na ndị bikwa na Ndagwurugwu Jezril.”
17 And Ioshua spake vnto the house of Ioseph, to Ephraim, and to Manasseh, saying, Thou art a great people, and hast great power, and shalt not haue one lot.
Ma Joshua zara ụmụ Josef, ya bụ, Ifrem na Manase, sị ha, “Unu dị ukwuu nʼọnụọgụgụ, bụrụkwa ndị dị ike, ọ bụghị naanị otu oke ka unu ga-eketa,
18 Therefore the mountaine shall be thine: for it is a wood, and thou shalt cut it downe: and the endes of it shall be thine, and thou shalt cast out the Canaanites, though they haue yron charets, and though they be strong.
nʼihi na ala ugwu ugwu oke ọhịa ahụ bụkwa nke unu. Sụchaanụ ya, ruo na nsọtụ ya, ka ọ bụrụ nke unu. Ọ bụ ezie na ndị Kenan bi nʼime ya nwere ụgbọ agha igwe, bụrụkwa ndị sịrị ike, unu nwere ike ịchụpụ ha.”
