< Joshua 17 >

1 And this was the lot for the tribe of Manasseh; for he was the first-born of Joseph. As for Machir the first-born of Manasseh, the father of Gilead, because he was a man of war, therefore he had Gilead and Bashan.
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 the lot was for the rest of the children of Manasseh according to their families; for the children of Abiezer, and for the children of Helek, and for the children of Asriel, and for the children of Shechem, and for the children of Hepher, and for the children of Shemida; these were the male children of Manasseh the son of Joseph according to their families.
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 Zelophehad, the son of Hepher, the son of Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh, had no sons, but daughters; and these are the names of his daughters: Mahlah, and Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah.
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 near before Eleazar the priest, and before Joshua the son of Nun, and before the princes, saying: 'The LORD commanded Moses to give us an inheritance among our brethren'; therefore according to the commandment of the LORD he gave them an inheritance among 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 parts to Manasseh, beside the land of Gilead and Bashan, which is beyond the Jordan;
Ìpín ilẹ̀ Manase sì jẹ́ ìsọ̀rí mẹ́wàá ní ẹ̀bá Gileadi àti Baṣani ìlà-oòrùn Jordani,
6 because the daughters of Manasseh had an inheritance among his sons; and the land of Gilead belonged unto the rest of the sons of Manasseh.
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 Manasseh was, beginning from Asher, Michmethath, which is before Shechem; and the border went along to the right hand, unto the inhabitants of En-tappuah. —
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 The land of Tappuah belonged to Manasseh; but Tappuah on the border of Manasseh belonged 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 went down unto the brook of Kanah, southward of the brook, by cities which belonged to Ephraim among the cities of Manasseh; but the border of Manasseh was on the north side of the brook; and the goings out thereof were 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 southward it was Ephraim's, and northward it was Manasseh's, and the sea was his border; and they reached to Asher on the north, and to 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 Manasseh had in Issachar and in Asher Beth-shean and its towns, and Ibleam and its towns, and the inhabitants of Dor and its towns, and the inhabitants of En-dor and its towns, and the inhabitants of Taanach and its towns, and the inhabitants of Megiddo and its towns, even the three regions.
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 Yet the children of Manasseh could not drive out the inhabitants of those cities; but the Canaanites were resolved to dwell in that land.
Síbẹ̀, àwọn ọmọ Manase kò lè gba àwọn ìlú wọ̀nyí, nítorí àwọn ará Kenaani ti pinnu láti gbé ní ilẹ̀ náà.
13 And it came to pass, when the children of Israel were waxen strong, that they put the Canaanites to taskwork, but did not utterly drive them out.
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 unto Joshua, saying: 'Why hast thou given me but one lot and one part for an inheritance, seeing I am a great people, forasmuch as the LORD hath blessed me thus?'
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 Joshua said unto them: 'If thou be a great people, get thee up to the forest, and cut down for thyself there in the land of the Perizzites and of the Rephaim; since the hill-country of 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 said: 'The hill-country will not be enough for us; and all the Canaanites that dwell in the land of the valley have chariots of iron, both they who are in Beth-shean and its towns, and they who are in the valley of Jezreel.'
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 Joshua spoke unto the house of Joseph, even to Ephraim and to Manasseh, saying: 'Thou art a great people, and hast great power; 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 the hill-country shall be thine; for though it is a forest, thou shalt cut it down, and the goings out thereof shall be thine; for thou shalt drive out the Canaanites, though they have chariots of iron, and though they be 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.”
