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.

cecidit quoque sors filiorum Ioseph ab Iordane contra Hiericho et aquas eius ab oriente solitudo quae ascendit de Hiericho ad montana Bethel

2 It went out from Bethel to Luz, and passed along to the border of the Archites at Ataroth;

et egreditur de Bethel Luzam transitque terminum Archiatharoth

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.

et descendit ad occidentem iuxta terminum Ieflethi usque ad terminos Bethoron inferioris et Gazer finiunturque regiones eius mari Magno

4 The descendants of Joseph, Manasseh and Ephraim, took their inheritance.

possederuntque filii Ioseph Manasse et Ephraim

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.

et factus est terminus filiorum Ephraim per cognationes suas et possessio eorum contra orientem Atharothaddar usque Bethoron superiorem

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.

egrediunturque confinia in mare Machmethath vero aquilonem respicit et circuit terminus contra orientem in Thanathselo et pertransit ab oriente Ianoe

7 It went down from Janoah to Ataroth, to Naaratah, reached to Jericho, and went out at the Jordan.

descenditque de Ianoe in Atharoth et Noaratha et pervenit in Hiericho et egreditur ad Iordanem

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;

de Taffua pertransitque contra mare in valle Harundineti suntque egressus eius in mare Salsissimum haec est possessio tribus filiorum Ephraim per familias suas

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.

urbesque quae separatae sunt filiis Ephraim in medio possessionis filiorum Manasse et villae earum

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.

et non interfecerunt filii Ephraim Chananeum qui habitabat in Gazer habitavitque Chananeus in medio Ephraim usque in diem hanc tributarius
