< Joshua 16 >
1 The land that was allotted to [the two tribes of Ephraim and Manasseh that were descended from] Joseph started at the Jordan [River], east of the springs at Jericho.
O lote saiu para as crianças de José do Jordão em Jericó, nas águas de Jericó no leste, até mesmo no deserto, subindo de Jericó pelo país das colinas até Betel.
2 It extended west from Jericho to the hilly area near Bethel, which is also called Luz. It extended as far as Ataroth, at the border of the land where the Arki people-group lived.
Saiu de Betel para Luz, e passou pela fronteira dos Arquitetos para Ataroth;
3 From there it extended west to the border of the land where the Japhleti people-group lived, and then it extended west to the area near Lower Beth-Horon. From there it extended west to Gezer [city] and from there to the [Mediterranean] Sea.
e desceu para oeste até a fronteira do Japhletites, para a fronteira de Beth Horon, na parte inferior, e para Gezer; e terminou no mar.
4 That is the land that the tribes of Ephraim and Manasseh were allotted.
Os filhos de Joseph, Manasseh e Ephraim, tomaram sua herança.
5 The border of the land that was allotted to the clans of the tribe of Ephraim started at Ataroth-Addar [city] in the east. It extended to Upper Beth-Horon
This era a fronteira dos filhos de Efraim, de acordo com suas famílias. A fronteira de sua herança para o leste era Ataroth Addar, para Beth Horon, a superior.
6 and from there to the [Mediterranean] Sea.
A fronteira foi para o oeste, em Michmethath, ao norte. A fronteira girou em direção ao leste para Taanath Shiloh, e passou ao longo dela ao leste de Janoah.
7 From Michmethath [on the north] it extended east to Taanath and from there on to Janoah. From there it extended [south] to Ataroth [city] and to Naarah [town]. From there it extended to Jericho and from there to the Jordan [River].
Desceu de Janoah para Ataroth, para Naarah, chegou a Jericó, e saiu no Jordão.
8 The [northern] border extended from Tappuah west to Kanah Ravine, and ended at the [Mediterranean] Sea. That was the land that was allotted to the tribe of Ephraim.
De Tappuah, a fronteira seguiu para oeste até o riacho de Kanah; e terminou no mar. Esta é a herança da tribo dos filhos de Efraim de acordo com suas famílias;
9 Many of those towns were really within the area allotted to the tribe of Manasseh.
together com as cidades que foram separadas para os filhos de Efraim no meio da herança dos filhos de Manasseh, todas as cidades com suas aldeias.
10 The people of the tribe of Ephraim could not force the Canaan people-group to leave Gezer, so the Canaan people-group still live among the people of the tribe of Ephraim, but the Israelis forced the people of the Canaan people-group to become their slaves.
Eles não expulsaram os cananeus que viviam em Gezer; mas os cananeus habitam no território de Efraim até hoje, e se tornaram servos para fazer trabalhos forçados.
