< Joshua 16 >
1 And the lot for the sons of Joseph goes out from Jordan [by] Jericho, to the waters of Jericho on the east, to the wilderness going up from Jericho in the hill-country of Beth-El,
若瑟的子孫抽籤分得的土地,從耶利哥對面的約旦河起,到耶利哥東面的水源,沿著曠野,由耶利哥向上到貝特爾山區,
2 and has gone out from Beth-El to Luz, and passed over to the border of Archi [to] Ataroth,
再由貝特耳路次,沿著阿爾基人的邊境,直到下貝特曷龍的邊境,以迄於革則爾,直達於海邊邊境
3 and gone down westward to the border of Japhleti, to the border of the lower Beth-Horon, and to Gezer, and its outgoings have been at the sea.
這是若瑟的兒子默納協和厄弗辣因分得的產業。
4 And the sons of Joseph—Manasseh and Ephraim—inherit.
這是若望的兒子默納協和厄弗辣因分得的產業。
5 And the border of the sons of Ephraim is by their families; and the border of their inheritance is on the east, Atroth-Addar to the upper Beth-Horon;
以下是厄弗辣因子孫按照家族分得的土地:他們產業的邊界,東面是阿塔洛特阿達爾,直到上貝特曷龍,
6 and the border has gone out at the sea, to Michmethah on the north, and the border has gone around eastward [to] Taanath-Shiloh, and passed over it eastward to Janohah,
直達於海。北端是米革默塔特,由此向東轉向塔納特史羅,越過雅諾亞東部,
7 and gone down from Janohah [to] Ataroth, and to Naarath, and touched against Jericho, and gone out at the Jordan.
再由雅諾亞下至阿塔洛特和納阿辣,經耶利哥直達約旦河。
8 From Tappuah the border goes westward to the Brook of Kanah, and its outgoings have been at the sea: this [is] the inheritance of the tribe of the sons of Ephraim, for their families.
又從塔普亞往西到卡納谷,直達於海:以上是厄弗辣因子孫按照家族分得的產業。
9 And the separate cities of the sons of Ephraim [are] in the midst of the inheritance of the sons of Manasseh, all the cities and their villages;
此外,屬默納協子孫的產業中,還有給厄弗辣因子孫保留的城市──城市和所屬的村鎮。
10 and they have not dispossessed the Canaanite who is dwelling in Gezer, and the Canaanite dwells in the midst of Ephraim to this day, and is for forced labor—serving.
但是他們未能將住在革則爾的客納罕人趕走,因此客納罕人直到今天還住在厄弗辣因人中間,充當苦役。
