< Joshua 17 >
1 This was the lot for the tribe of Manasseh, for he was the firstborn of Joseph. As for Makir the firstborn of Manasseh, the father of Gilead, because he was a man of war, therefore he had Gilead and Bashan.
Pea naʻe ʻi ai ʻae tofiʻa ki he faʻahinga ʻo Manase; he ko e ʻuluaki foha ia ʻo Siosefa; kia Mekili ko e ʻuluaki foha ʻo Manase, ko e tamai ʻa Kiliati: koeʻuhi ko e tangata tau ia, ko ia naʻa ne maʻu ai ʻa Kiliati mo Pesani.
2 So this was for the rest of the descendants of Manasseh according to their families: for the descendants of Abiezer, for the descendants of Helek, for the descendants of Asriel, for the descendants of Shechem, for the descendants of Hepher, and for the descendants of Shemida: these were the male descendants of Manasseh the son of Joseph according to their families.
Pea naʻe ʻi ai ʻae tofiʻa ki hono toe ʻoe fānau ʻa Manase ʻi honau ngaahi faʻahinga: ki he faʻahinga ʻa Epiesa, pea ki he fānau ʻa ʻEleki, pea ki he fānau ʻa ʻEsileli, pea ki he fānau ʻa Sikemi, pea ki he fānau ʻa Hefeli pea ki he fānau ʻa Simita: ko e ngaahi fānau tangata eni ʻa Manase ko e foha ʻo Siosefa ʻi honau ngaahi faʻahinga.
3 But Zelophehad, the son of Hepher, the son of Gilead, the son of Makir, the son of Manasseh, had no sons, but daughters: and these are the names of his daughters: Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah.
Ka ko Sailofitati, ko e foha ʻo Hefeli, ko e foha ʻo Kiliati, ko e foha ʻo Mekili, ko e foha ʻo Manase, naʻe ʻikai hano foha, ka ko e ngaahi ʻofefine: pea ko e ngaahi hingoa eni ʻo hono ngaahi ʻofefine, ko Mala, mo Noa, mo Hokila, mo Milika, mo Tilisa.
4 They came near before Eleazar the cohen, and before Joshua the son of Nun, and before the leaders, saying, "The LORD commanded Moses to give us an inheritance among our brothers." Therefore according to the commandment of the LORD he gave them an inheritance among the brothers of their father.
Pea naʻa nau haʻu ʻo ofi ki he ʻao ʻo ʻEliesa ko e taulaʻeiki, pea ki he ʻao ʻo Siosiua ko e foha ʻo Nuni, pea ki he ʻao ʻoe houʻeiki, ʻo pehē, “Naʻe fekau ʻe Sihova kia Mōsese ke foaki kiate kimautolu hamau tofiʻa fakataha mo homau kāinga.” Ko ia naʻa ne foaki kiate kinautolu ʻae tofiʻa fakataha mo e kāinga ʻo ʻenau tamai ʻo fakatatau ki he fekau ʻa Sihova.
5 Ten parts fell to Manasseh, besides the land of Gilead and Bashan, which is beyond the Jordan;
Pea naʻe hoko kia Manase ʻae ngaahi konga ʻe hongofulu, ka ʻoku kehe ʻae fonua ʻo Kiliati mo Pesani, ʻaia naʻe ʻi he kauvai ʻe taha ʻo Soatani;
6 because the daughters of Manasseh had an inheritance among his sons. The land of Gilead belonged to the rest of the sons of Manasseh.
Koeʻuhi naʻe maʻu foki ʻe he ngaahi ʻofefine ʻo Manase hanau tofiʻa fakataha mo hono ngaahi foha: pea ko hono toe ʻoe foha ʻo Manase naʻa nau maʻu ʻae fonua ko Kiliati.
7 The border of Manasseh was from Asher to Michmethath, which is before Shechem. The border went along to the right hand to Jashub and to En Tappuah.
Pea ko e ngataʻanga ʻoe potu ʻo Manase naʻe fai mei ʻAseli ki Mikimeta, ʻaia ʻoku hangatonu ki Sikemi; pea ʻalu ai hono ngataʻanga ʻi he nima toʻomataʻu ʻo hoko ki he kakai ʻo Enitapua.
8 The land of Tappuah belonged to Manasseh; but Tappuah, on the border of Manasseh, belonged to the descendants of Ephraim.
Pea naʻe maʻu ʻe Manase ʻae fonua ko Tapua: ka ko Tapua ʻi he veʻe fonua ʻo Manase ʻoku ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻIfalemi ia;
9 The border went down to Wadi Kanah, southward of the wadi. These cities belonged to Ephraim among the cities of Manasseh. The border of Manasseh was on the north side of the wadi, and ended at the sea.
Pea naʻe ʻalu hifo hono ngataʻanga ʻo aʻu ki he vaitafe ʻo Kana, ko e potu tonga ʻi he vaitafe: ko e ngaahi kolo ni ʻo ʻIfalemi, ʻoku tuʻu fakataha mo e ngaahi kolo ʻo Manase: ko e ngataʻanga foki ʻo Manase naʻe ʻi he potu tokelau ʻoe vaitafe, pea naʻe aʻu atu hono ngataʻanga ki tahi:
10 Southward it was Ephraim's, and northward it was Manasseh's, and the sea was his border. They reached to Asher on the north, and to Issachar on the east.
Naʻe ʻo ʻIfalemi ʻae potu tonga, pea ko e potu tokelau naʻe ʻo Manase ia, pea ko hono ngataʻanga ʻoʻona ko e tahi: pea na fakataha ʻi ʻAseli ʻi he potu tokelau, pea ʻi ʻIsaka ʻi he potu hahake.
11 And Manasseh had in Issachar and in Asher, Beth Shean and its towns, and Ibleam and its towns, and the inhabitants of Dor and its towns, and the inhabitants of Endor and its towns, and the inhabitants of Taanach and its towns, and the inhabitants of Megiddo and its towns; three regions.
Pea naʻe maʻu ʻe Manase ʻi ʻIsaka, pea ʻi ʻAseli ʻa Pete-Seani mo hono ngaahi potu kakai, mo Ipiliami mo hono ngaahi potu kakai, pea mo e kakai ʻo Toa mo hono ngaahi potu kakai, mo e kakai ʻo Enitoa mo hono ngaahi potu kakai, mo e kakai ʻo Tenaki mo hono ngaahi potu kakai, mo e kakai ʻo Mekito mo hono ngaahi potu kakai, ʻio, ko e fonua ʻe tolu.
12 Yet the descendants of Manasseh couldn't drive out the inhabitants of those cities; but the Canaanites would dwell in that land.
Ka naʻe ʻikai faʻa kapusi ʻe he fānau ʻa Manase ʻae kakai ʻoe ngaahi kolo ko ia; ka naʻe loto pe ʻae kau Kēnani kenau nonofo ʻi he fonua.
13 It happened, when the children of Israel had grown strong, that they put the Canaanites to forced labor, and did not utterly drive them out.
Ka naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi he fakaʻaʻau ke mālohi ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, naʻa nau fakamoʻulaloa ʻae kau Kēnani kenau tukuhau: ka naʻe ʻikai tenau kapusi ʻakinautolu kituaʻā.
14 The descendants of Joseph spoke to Joshua, saying, "Why have you given me just one lot and one part for an inheritance, since I am a great people, because the LORD has blessed me so far?"
Pea naʻe lea ʻae fānau ʻa Siosefa kia Siosiua, ʻo pehē, “Ko e hā kuo ke foaki ai kiate au ʻae tofiʻa pe taha ke u maʻu, ka ko e kakai tokolahi au, he koeʻuhi kuo tāpuaki au maʻuaipē ʻe Sihova?”
15 Joshua said to them, "If you are a great people, go up to the forest, and clear land for yourself there in the land of the Perizzites and of the Rephaim; since the hill country of Ephraim is too narrow for you."
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Siosiua kiate kinautolu, “Kapau ko e kakai lahi koe, pea ke fei mo ʻalu hake ki he fonua ʻakauʻia, pea ke tā hifo ʻi ai maʻau, ʻi he fonua ʻoe kau Pelesi, pea mo e kakai lalahi, ʻo kapau ʻoku ʻapiʻapi ʻae moʻunga ko ʻIfalemi kiate koe.
16 The descendants of Joseph said, "The hill country is not enough for us. All the Canaanites who dwell in the land of the valley have chariots of iron, both those who are in Beth Shean and its towns, and those who are in the Valley of Jezreel."
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he fānau ʻa Siosefa, ʻOku siʻi ʻae moʻunga kiate kimautolu: pea ʻoku ʻi he kau Kēnani kotoa pē ʻoku nofo ʻi he teleʻa, ʻae ngaahi saliote ʻaione, ʻakinautolu ʻoku kau mo Pete-Seani mo hono ngaahi potu kakai, mo kinautolu ʻoku kau mo e teleʻa ʻo Sesilili.”
17 Joshua spoke to the house of Joseph, even to Ephraim and to Manasseh, saying, "You are a great people, and have great power. You shall not have one lot only;
Pea naʻe lea ʻa Siosiua ki he fale ʻo Siosefa, ʻio, kia ʻIfalemi mo Manase, ʻo pehē, “Ko e kakai lahi koe, pea ʻoku ke mālohi lahi: ʻe ʻikai te ke maʻu ʻae tofiʻa pē taha:
18 but the hill country shall be yours. Although it is a forest, you shall cut it down, and its farthest extent shall be yours; for you shall drive out the Canaanites, though they have chariots of iron, and though they are strong."
Ka ʻe ʻoʻou ʻae moʻunga; he ʻoku ʻakauʻia, pea ke tā hifo ia: pea ko hono ngaahi ʻaluʻanga ʻe ʻomoutolu ia: te ke kapusi ʻae kau Kēnani, neongo ʻoku nau maʻu ʻae saliote ʻaione, pea ʻoku nau mālohi.”
