< Joshua 16 >
1 And the lot of the children of Joseph fell from the Jordan by Jericho, unto the waters of Jericho on the east, to the wilderness that goeth up from Jericho by the mount 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 [the boundary] went out from Beth-el to Luz, and passed along unto the boundary of the Arkites to 'Ataroth,
E de bethel sai a Luza, e passa ao termo dos archeus, até Ataroth;
3 And went down westward to the boundary of the Yaphleti, unto the border of Beth-choron the lower, and to Gezer; and its terminations were toward 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 This did the children of Joseph, Menasseh and Ephraim, take as their inheritance.
Assim alcançaram a sua herança os filhos de José, Manasseh e Ephraim.
5 And [this] was the boundary of the children of Ephraim according to their families; and the boundary of their inheritance on the east side was 'Atroth-addar, up to Beth-choron 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 boundary went out toward the sea to Michmethath on the north; and the boundary fetched a compass eastward unto Taanathshiloh, and passed by it on the east to Yanochah;
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 Yanochah to 'Ataroth, and to Na'arath, and touched on 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 Tappuach westward the border went out unto the brook Kanah; and its terminations were toward the sea. This is the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Ephraim after 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 And [in addition to this] the cities which were separated for the children of Ephraim in the midst of the inheritance of the children of Menasseh, 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 among the Ephraimites until this day, and became tributary servants.
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.
