Joshua 16
1 The lot came out for the children 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.
Og Lodden udkom for Josefs Børn: Fra Jordanen ved Jeriko, ved Vandet fra Jeriko mod Østen, den Ørk, som gaar op fra Jeriko til Bjerget ved Bethel.
2 It went out from Bethel to Luz, and passed along to the border of the Archites to Ataroth;
Og Landemærket gaar videre fra Bethel til Lus og gaar igennem til Arkiternes Landemærke til Ataroth.
3 and it went down westward to the border of the Japhletites, to the border of Beth Horon the lower, and on to Gezer; and ended at the sea.
Og det gaar ned mod Vest til Jaflethiternes Landemærke, indtil det nedre Beth-Horons Landemærke og indtil Geser, og dets Udgang er til Havet.
4 The children of Joseph, Manasseh and Ephraim, took their inheritance.
Og dette arvede Josefs Børn, Manasse og Efraim.
5 This was the border of the children of Ephraim according to their families. The border of their inheritance eastward was Ataroth Addar, to Beth Horon the upper.
Og Efraims Børns Landemærke efter deres Slægter, deres Arvs Landemærke var mod Østen, fra Ataroth-Addar indtil det øvre Beth-Horon.
6 The border went out westward at Michmethath on the north. The border turned about eastward to Taanath Shiloh, and passed along it on the east of Janoah.
Og Landemærket gaar i Vesten ud fra Nordsiden af Mikmethath, og Landemærket gaar omkring i Øster til Thaanath-Silo, og det gaar forbi den, Østen for Janoa.
7 It went down from Janoah to Ataroth, to Naarah, reached to Jericho, and went out at the Jordan.
Og det kommer ned fra Janoa til Ataroth og Naara og skyder op mod Jeriko og gaar ud til Jordan.
8 From Tappuah the border went along westward to the brook of Kanah; and ended at the sea. This is the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Ephraim according to their families;
Fra Thappua gaar Landemærket i Vester til Bækken Kana; og dets Udgang er til Havet; dette er Efraims Børns Stammes Arv efter deres Slægter.
9 together with the cities which were set apart for the children of Ephraim in the middle of the inheritance of the children of Manasseh, all the cities with their villages.
Hertil kom de Stæder, som vare udlagte for Efraims Børn midt iblandt Manasse Børns Arv, alle Stæderne og deres Landsbyer.
10 They didn’t drive out the Canaanites who lived in Gezer; but the Canaanites dwell in the territory of Ephraim to this day, and have become servants to do forced labor.
Og de fordreve ikke Kananiten, som boede i Geser; men Kananiten boede iblandt Efraim indtil denne Dag og blev en skatskyldig Tjener.
