Joshua 16
1 The lot came out for the descendants of Joseph from the Jordan at Jericho, at the waters of Jericho on the east, even the wilderness, going up from Jericho through the hill country to Bethel.
Qoodni Yoosef Yordaanos Yerikoo biratti argamtu, karaa baʼa bishaanota Yerikootii kaʼee gammoojjii keessa qaxxaamuree biyya gaaraa Beetʼeelitti ol baʼa.
2 It went out from Bethel to Luz, and passed along to the border of the Archites at Ataroth;
Luuzi ishee Beetʼeel jedhamtu sanaa kaʼee gara biyya Arkaawotaa kan Axaaroti keessatti argamtu sanaatti ceʼa.
3 and it went down westward to the border of the Japhletites, to the border of Lower Beth Horon, even to Gezer; and ended at the sea.
Achii immoo gara lixaa biyya Yafleexotaatti gad buʼee Beet Horoon gaʼee gara Geezir itti fufee galaanicha gaʼee dhaabata.
4 The descendants of Joseph, Manasseh and Ephraim, took their inheritance.
Akkasitti Minaasee fi Efreem, ilmaan Yoosef dhaala isaanii argatan.
5 This was the border of the descendants of Ephraim according to their families. The border of their inheritance eastward was Ataroth Addar, to Upper Beth Horon.
Qoodni gosti Efreem balbala balbalaan argatte kunoo kana: Daariin dhaala isaanii gara baʼaatiin Axaaroti Adaarii kaʼee hamma Beet Horoon gara Ol aanuutti deemee
6 The border went out westward at Michmethath on the north of Termah. The border turned about eastward to Taanath Shiloh, and passed along it on the east of Janoah.
hamma galaanaatti itti fufa. Karaa kaabaatiin Mikmetaatii kaʼee karaa baʼaatiin gara Taanaat Shiiloo goree achiin darbee baʼa Yaanoʼaatti qajeela.
7 It went down from Janoah to Ataroth, to Naaratah, reached to Jericho, and went out at the Jordan.
Ergasii immoo Yaanoʼaadhaa kaʼee Axaarotii fi Naʼaraatti gad buʼee Yerikoo irra naannaʼee Yordaanositti gad baʼa.
8 From Tappuah the border went along westward to Wadi Kanah; and ended at the sea. This is the inheritance of the tribe of the descendants of Ephraim according to their families;
Daariin sun Tafuuʼaadhaa kaʼee gama Lixaatiin Laga Qaanaatti gad buʼee galaana gaʼee dhaabata. Dhaalli gosti Efreem balbala balbalaan argatte kanaa dha.
9 together with the cities which were set apart for the descendants of Ephraim in the midst of the inheritance of the descendants of Manasseh, all the cities with their villages.
Daariin kun magaalaawwanii fi olloota isaanii kanneen dhaala gosa Minaasee keessatti gosa Efreemiif hambifaman hundas ni dabalata.
10 They did not drive out the Canaanites who lived in Gezer; but the Canaanites dwell in the midst of Ephraim to this day, and have become servants to do forced labor.
Isaan Kanaʼaanota Geezir keessa jiraachaa turan sana ariʼanii achii hin baafne ture; hamma harʼaatti Kanaʼaanonni saba Efreem gidduu jiraatu; garuu akka hojii humnaa hojjetan dirqamu.
