50 By the order of the Lord did they give him the city which he had asked, Timnathserach on the mountain of Ephraim: and he built the city, and dwelt therein.
kama vile Bwana alivyokuwa ameamuru. Walimpa mji alioutaka, ambao ni Timnath-Sera ulio katika nchi ya vilima ya Efraimu. Naye akajenga mji, akakaa huko.
51 These are the inheritances, which Elazar the priest, and Joshua the son of Nun, and the heads of the divisions of the tribes of the children of Israel, divided for an inheritance by lot, at Shiloh before the Lord, at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation. So they made an end of dividing the country.
