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,

Yosef asefoɔ no kyɛfa firi Asubɔnten Yordan fa a ɛbɛn Yeriko, wɔ Yeriko nsuwa no apueeɛ fam, kɔfa ɛserɛ no so kɔpue Bet-El bepɔ asase no so.

2 And [the boundary] went out from Beth-el to Luz, and passed along unto the boundary of the Arkites to 'Ataroth,

Ɛfiri Bet-El (a ɛyɛ Lus) a, ɛfa Atarot a ɛwɔ Arkifoɔ mantam mu.

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.

Esiane fa atɔeɛ fam kɔsi Bet-Horon Anafoɔ a ɛwɔ Yafletifoɔ mantam mu. Ɛtoa so kɔ Geser na afei akɔsi Ɛpo Kɛseɛ no mu.

4 This did the children of Joseph, Menasseh and Ephraim, take as their inheritance.

Yosef mmammarima Manase ne Efraim mmusua nyaa wɔn agyapadeɛ.

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;

Wɔde saa asase yi maa Efraim mmusua sɛ wɔn agyapadeɛ. Wɔn agyapadeɛ no ɛhyeɛ a ɛwɔ apueeɛ fam no firi Atarot-Adar. Ɛfiri hɔ kɔ Bet-Horon Soro,

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;

na akɔ Ɛpo Kɛseɛ no ho. Atifi fam ɛhyeɛ no firi Ɛpo Kɛseɛ no, ɛfa apueeɛ fam, twam wɔ Mikmetat, na akontono afa apueeɛ fam, atwam wɔ Taanat-Silo akɔ Yanoa apueeɛ fam.

7 And it went down from Yanochah to 'Ataroth, and to Na'arath, and touched on Jericho, and went out at the Jordan.

Ɛfiri Yanoa a, ɛdane fa anafoɔ fam kɔ Atarot ne Naara, ɛka Yeriko, na akɔpem Asubɔnten Yordan.

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;

Ɛfiri Tapua a, ɛhyeɛ no kɔ atɔeɛ fam, nam Kana Suka no mu kɔsi Ɛpo Kɛseɛ no. Saa agyapadeɛ yi na wɔde maa mmusua a wɔbɔ mu yɛ Efraim abusuakuo no.

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.

Wɔde nkuro bi ne wɔn nkuraaseɛ a ɛwɔ Manase abusuakuo no fa mantam mu maa Efraim.

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.

Wɔampamo Kanaanfoɔ no amfiri Geser, enti Geserfoɔ te hɔ sɛ nkoa bɛsi ɛnnɛ.
