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.
Joseph koca rhoek ham hmulung a yueh vaengah Jordan khocuk Jerikho kah Jerikho tui kaepah khosoek la luei tih Jerikho lamloh Bethel tlang la,
2 It went out from Bethel to Luz, and passed along to the border of the Archites at Ataroth;
Bethel lamloh Luz la cet tih Arkii Ataroth khorhi la kat.
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.
Te phoeiah khotlak kah Japhletee khorhi la suntla tih a dang Bethhoron neh Gezer khorhi, tuili kah a hmoi a hmoi ah om uh.
4 The descendants of Joseph, Manasseh and Ephraim, took their inheritance.
Te tlam te ni Joseph koca Manasseh neh Ephraim te phaeng la om.
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.
Ephraim koca ah amih cako kah khorhi aka om tah khocuk ah Atarothaddar lamkah Bethhoron kholu due te amih kah rho khorhi la om.
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.
Te phoeiah tlangpuei kah Mikmthath tuili rhi te a paan tih khocuk Taanathshiloh rhi la a keen phoeiah khocuk kah Janoah la kat.
7 It went down from Janoah to Ataroth, to Naaratah, reached to Jericho, and went out at the Jordan.
Te phoeiah Janoah lamkah Ataroth neh Naarah la aka suntla te Jerikho a doo tih Jordan la pawk.
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;
Tappuah lamloh tuili rhi ah Kanah soklong la cet tih tuitunli ah a bawtnah om. He Ephraim ca rhoek kah koca rhoek ah amah cako kah rho la om.
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.
Hekah khopuei he Manasseh ca rhoek kah rho la aka om khopuei vangca rhoek boeih khui ah Ephraim ca rhoek ham khotlueh la om.
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.
Tedae Gezer kah khosa Kanaani te tah haek uh pawh. Te dongah Kanaani loh Ephraim lakli ah tihnin due kho a sak tih aka thotat saldong la om.
