Joshua 16
1 And the lot for the children of Joseph went out from the Jordan at Jericho, at the waters of Jericho on the east, going up from Jericho through the hill-country to the wilderness, even to Beth-el.
Saiu depois a sorte dos filhos de José, desde o Jordão de Jericó às águas de Jericó, para o oriente, subindo ao deserto de Jericó pelas montanhas de bethel;
2 And it went out from Beth-el-luz, and passed along unto the border of the Archites to Ataroth.
E de bethel sai a Luza, e passa ao termo dos archeus, até Ataroth;
3 And it went down westward to the border of the Japhletites, unto the border of Beth-horon the nether, even unto Gezer; and the goings out thereof were at the sea.
E desce da banda do ocidente ao termo de Japhleti, até ao termo de Beth-horon de baixo, e até Gazer, sendo as suas saídas para o mar.
4 And the children of Joseph, Manasseh and Ephraim, took their inheritance.
Assim alcançaram a sua herança os filhos de José, Manasseh e Ephraim.
5 And the border of the children of Ephraim according to their families was thus; even the border of their inheritance eastward was Atroth-addar, unto Beth-horon the upper.
E foi o termo dos filhos de Ephraim, segundo as suas famílias, a saber: o termo da sua herança para o oriente era Atharoth-addar até Beth-horon de cima:
6 And the border went out westward, Mich-methath being on the north; and the border turned about eastward unto Taanath-shiloh, and passed along it on the east of Janoah.
E sai este termo para o ocidente junto a Mikametath, desde o norte, e torna este termo para o oriente a Thaanat-silo, e passa por ela desde o oriente a Janoha;
7 And it went down from Janoah to Ataroth, and to Naarah, and reached unto Jericho, and went out at the Jordan.
E desce desde Janoha a Atharoth e a Naharath, e toca em Jericó, e vai sair ao Jordão.
8 From Tappuah the border went along westward to the brook of Kanah; and the goings out thereof were at the sea. This is the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Ephraim according to their families;
De Tappuah vai este termo para o ocidente ao ribeiro de Cana, e as suas saídas no mar: esta é a herança da tribo dos filhos de Ephraim, segundo as suas famílias.
9 together with the cities which were separated for the children of Ephraim in the midst of the inheritance of the children of Manasseh, all the cities with their villages.
E as cidades que se separaram para os filhos de Ephraim estavam no meio da herança dos filhos de Manasseh: todas aquelas cidades e as suas aldeias.
10 And they drove not out the Canaanites that dwelt in Gezer; but the Canaanites dwelt in the midst of Ephraim, unto this day, and became servants to do taskwork.
E não expeliram aos cananeus que habitavam em Gazer: e os cananeus habitaram no meio dos ephraimitas até ao dia de hoje; porém serviam-nos, sendo-lhes tributários.
