Joshua 17

1 And [this] was the lot for the tribe of Manasseh; for he was the firstborn of Joseph. As for Machir the firstborn of Manasseh, the father of Gilead, because he was a man of war, therefore he had Gilead and Bashan.

Também caiu a sorte à tribo de Manasseh, porquanto era o primogênito de José, a saber: Machir, o primogênito de Manasseh, pai de Gilead, porquanto era homem de guerra, teve a Gilead e Basan.

2 And [the lot] was for the rest of the children of Manasseh according to their families; for the children of Abiezer, and for the children of Helek, and for the children of Asriel, and for the children of Shechem, and for the children of Hepher, and for the children of Shemida: these were the male children of Manasseh the son of Joseph according to their families.

Também os mais filhos de Manasseh tiveram sorte, segundo as suas famílias, a saber: os filhos de Abiezer, e os filhos de Helek, e os filhos de Asriel, e os filhos de Sechem, e os filhos de Hepher, e os filhos de Semida: estes são os filhos machos de Manasseh, filho de José, segundo as suas famílias.

3 But Zelophehad, the son of Hepher, the son of Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh, had no sons, but daughters: and these are the names of his daughters, Mahlah, and Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah.

Selofad, porém, filho de Hepher, o filho de Gilead, filho de Machir, o filho de Manasseh, não teve filhos, mas só filhas: e estes são os nomes de suas filhas: Machla, Noa, Hogla, Milka e Tirsa.

4 And they came near before Eleazar the priest, and before Joshua the son of Nun, and before the princes, saying, The LORD commanded Moses to give us an inheritance among our brethren: therefore according to the commandment of the LORD he gave them an inheritance among the brethren of their father.

Estas, pois, chegaram diante de Eleazar, o sacerdote, e diante de Josué, filho de Nun, e diante dos príncipes, dizendo: O Senhor ordenou a Moisés que se nos desse herança no meio de nossos irmãos: pelo que, conforme ao dito do Senhor, lhes deu herança no meio dos irmãos de seu pai.

5 And there fell ten parts to Manasseh, beside the land of Gilead and Bashan, which is beyond Jordan;

E cairam a Manasseh dez quinhões, a fora a terra de Gilead, e Basan que está de além do Jordão:

6 because the daughters of Manasseh had an inheritance among his sons: and the land of Gilead belonged unto the rest of the sons of Manasseh.

Porque as filhas de Manasseh no meio de seus filhos possuiram herança: e a terra de Gilead tiveram os outros filhos de Manasseh.

7 And the border of Manasseh was from Asher to Michmethath, which is before Shechem; and the border went along to the right hand, unto the inhabitants of En-tappuah.

E o termo de Manasseh foi desde Aser até Mikmetath, que está diante de Sechem: e vai este termo à mão direita, até aos moradores de En-Tappuah.

8 The land of Tappuah belonged to Manasseh: but Tappuah on the border of Manasseh belonged to the children of Ephraim.

Tinha Manasseh a terra de Tappuah: porém a Tappuah, no termo de Manasseh, tinham os filhos de Ephraim.

9 And the border went down unto the brook of Kanah, southward of the brook: these cities belonged to Ephraim among the cities of Manasseh: and the border of Manasseh was on the north side of the brook, and the goings out thereof were at the sea:

Então desce este termo ao ribeiro de Cana, para o sul do ribeiro: de Ephraim são estas cidades no meio das cidades de Manasseh: e o termo de Manasseh está ao norte do ribeiro, sendo as suas saídas no mar.

10 southward it was Ephraim’s, and northward it was Manasseh’s, and the sea was his border; and they reached to Asher on the north, and to Issachar on the east.

Ephraim ao sul, e Manasseh ao norte, e o mar é o seu termo: pelo norte tocam em Aser, e pelo oriente em Issacar.

11 And Manasseh had in Issachar and in Asher Beth-shean and her towns, and Ibleam and her towns, and the inhabitants of Dor and her towns, and the inhabitants of En-dor and her towns, and the inhabitants of Taanach and her towns, and the inhabitants of Megiddo and her towns, even the three heights.

Porque em Issacar e em Aser tinha Manasseh a Beth-sean e os lugares da sua jurisdição, e Ibleam e os lugares da sua jurisdição, e os habitantes de Dor e os lugares da sua jurisdição, e os habitantes de En-Dor e os lugares da sua jurisdição, e os habitantes de Thaanak e os lugares da sua jurisdição, e os habitantes de Megiddo e os lugares da sua jurisdição: três comarcas.

12 Yet the children of Manasseh could not drive out [the inhabitants] of those cities; but the Canaanites would dwell in that land.

E os filhos de Manasseh não puderam expelir os habitantes daquelas cidades: porquanto os cananeus queriam habitar na mesma terra.

13 And it came to pass, when the children of Israel were waxen strong, that they put the Canaanites to taskwork, and did not utterly drive them out.

E sucedeu que, engrossando em forças os filhos de Israel, fizeram tributários aos cananeus; porém não os expeliram de todo.

14 And the children of Joseph spake unto Joshua, saying, Why hast thou given me but one lot and one part for an inheritance, seeing I am a great people, forasmuch as hitherto the LORD hath blessed me?

Então os filhos de José falaram a Josué, dizendo: Porque me deste por herança só uma sorte e um quinhão, sendo eu um tão grande povo, visto que o Senhor até aqui me tem abençoado?

15 And Joshua said unto them, If thou be a great people, get thee up to the forest, and cut down for thyself there in the land of the Perizzites and of the Rephaim; since the hill country of Ephraim is too narrow for thee.

E disse-lhes Josué: Se tão grande povo és, sobe ao bosque, e corta para ti ali lugar na terra dos phereseus e dos rephains: pois que as montanhas de Ephraim te são tão estreitas.

16 And the children of Joseph said, The hill country is not enough for us: and all the Canaanites that dwell in the land of the valley have chariots of iron, both they who are in Beth-shean and her towns, and they who are in the valley of Jezreel.

Então disseram os filhos de José: As montanhas nos não bastariam: também carros ferrados há entre todos os cananeus que habitam na terra do vale, entre os de Beth-sean e os lugares da sua jurisdição, e entre os que estão no vale de Jezreel.

17 And Joshua spake unto the house of Joseph, even to Ephraim and to Manasseh, saying, Thou art a great people, and hast great power: thou shalt not have one lot only:

Então Josué falou à casa de José, a Ephraim e a Manasseh, dizendo: Grande povo és, e grande força tens; uma só sorte não terás;

18 but the hill country shall be thine; for though it is a forest, thou shalt cut it down, and the goings out thereof shall be thine: for thou shalt drive out the Canaanites, though they have chariots of iron, and though they be strong.

Porém as montanhas serão tuas: e, pois que bosque é, corta-o, e as suas saídas serão tuas: porque expelirás os cananeus, ainda que tenham carros ferrados, ainda que sejam fortes.
