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.
Omugabo ne guweebwa ekika kya Manase kubanga ye yali omubereberye owa Yusufu. Makiri omubereberye wa Manase era kitaawe wa Gireyaadi yaweebwa Gireyaadi ne Basani, era yali mulwanyi muzira.
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.
Era emigabo ne giweeba abaana ba Manase abalala nga bwe baali bazaalibwa mu buli maka. Omugabo gw’abaana ba Abiyezeeri, n’ogw’abaana ba Kereki n’abaana ba Asuliyeri n’ogw’abaana ba Sekemu, n’ogw’abaana ba Keferi, n’ogw’abaana ba Semida be baana bonna aboobulenzi aba Manase omwana wa Yusufu ng’amaka mwe baazaalibwa bwe gaali.
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:
Naye Zerofekadi mutabani wa Keferi mutabani wa Gireyaadi mutabani wa Manase teyazaala baana balenzi wabula bawala bokka era baali bayitibwa Maala ne Noowa, ne Kogula, ne Mirika ne Tiruza.
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.
Bano baagenda eri Eriyazaali kabona ne Yoswa omwana wa Nuuni n’abakulu ne babagamba nti, “Mukama yalagira Musa okutuwa omugabo nga baganda baffe.” Yoswa kyeyava abawa ettaka nga Mukama bwe yalagira. Yabawa omugabo mu baganda bakitaabwe.
5 And there fell ten portions to Manasseh, beside the land of Gilead and Bashan, which is on the other side Iorden,
Bw’atyo Manase n’afuna ebitundu kkumi ng’oggyeko ensi ya Gireyaadi ne Basani ebiri emitala wa Yoludaani,
6 Because the daughters of Manasseh did inherite among his sonnes: and Manassehs other sonnes had the land of Gilead.
kubanga abaana ba Manase abawala baafuna omugabo ng’abaana be abalenzi. Ensi ya Gireyaadi yaweebwa abaana ba Manase abaali basigaddewo ne bagitwala.
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.
N’ensalo ya Manase yava ku Aseri n’etuuka ku Mikumesasi ebuvanjuba bwa Sekemu, n’eyita ku bukiikaddyo n’ekka n’etwaliramu abantu abaali mu Entappua.
8 The land of Tappuah belonged to Manasseh, but Tappuah beside the border of Manasseh belongeth to the sonnes of Ephraim.
Ensi ya Tappua Manase n’agitwala wabula Tappua ekibuga ekyali ku nsalo ya Manase abaana ba Efulayimu be baakigabana.
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,
Ensalo n’ekka n’etuuka ku kagga Kana ku luuyi mu bukiikakkono obw’omugga. Bino bye bibuga bya Efulayimu ebiri mu bibuga bya Manase, naye ensalo ya Manase yali mu bukiikakkono obwa kagga n’ekoma ku nnyanja.
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.
Efulayimu n’atwala oluuyi olw’omu bukiikaddyo ne Manase n’atwala oluuyi olw’omu bukiikakkono n’ensalo ye n’ekoma ku nnyanja mu bukiikakkono n’etuuka ku Aseri ate ebuvanjuba n’etuuka ku Isakaali.
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.
Mu nsi ya Isakaali n’eya Aseri, Manase n’atwala Besuseani n’ebibuga byakyo ne Ibuleamu n’ebibuga byakyo n’abaali mu Endoli n’ebibuga byakyo n’abaali mu Doli n’abaali mu Taanaki n’ebibuga byakyo, n’abaali mu Megiddo n’ebibuga byakyo z’ensozi essatu.
12 Yet the children of Manasseh coulde not destroy those cities, but the Canaanites dwelled still in that land.
Naye abaana ba Manase tebasobola kugobamu Bakanani kubanga baali bamaliridde okusigala mu nsi eyo.
13 Neuerthelesse, when the children of Israel were strong, they put the Canaanites vnder tribute, but cast them not out wholy.
Naye abaana ba Isirayiri bwe beeyongera amaanyi ne bafuula Abakanani abaddu baabwe ab’okubakozesanga emirimu, ne batabeegoberako ddala.
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?
Abaana ba Yusufu ne boogera ne Yoswa nti, “Lwaki ffe otuwadde omugabo gumu n’ekitundu kimu ate nga tuli kika kinene? Mukama atuwadde nnyo omukisa.”
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.
Yoswa n’abagamba nti, “Obanga muli kika kinene mugende mu nsi y’Abaperezi n’ey’Abalefa mwesaayire ekibira, ensi ey’ensozi eya Efulayimu nga bwe tebamala.”
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.
Abaana ba Yusufu ne bagamba nti, “Ensi ey’ensozi tetumala; ate nga Abakanani bonna abali mu nsi ey’ekiwonvu n’abali mu Besuseani n’ebibuga byakyo era n’abali mu kiwonvu eky’e Yezuleeri balina amagaali ag’ebyuma.”
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.
Yoswa n’ayogera eri ennyumba ya Yusufu, n’eya Efulayimu n’eya Manase nti, “Muli kika kinene era mulina amaanyi mangi temuliba na mugabo gumu gwokka,
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.
naye ensi ey’ensozi eribeera yammwe, newaakubadde nga ya kibira mulikisaawa okutuuka gye kikoma, kubanga muligobamu Abakanani newaakubadde nga balina amagaali ag’ebyuma era nga baamaanyi.”
