Joshua 16

1 And the lot, `ethir part, of the sones of Joseph felde fro Jordan ayens Jerico, and at the watris therof, fro the eest; is the wildirnesse, that stieth fro Jerico to the hil of Bethel,

若瑟的子孫抽籤分得的土地，從耶利哥對面的約旦河起，到耶利哥東面的水源，沿著曠野，由耶利哥向上到貝特爾山區，

2 and it goith out fro Bethel `in to Luzan, and passith the terme of Architaroth,

再由貝特耳路次，沿著阿爾基人的邊境，直到下貝特曷龍的邊境，以迄於革則爾，直達於海邊邊境

3 and it goith doun to the west, bisidis the terme of Jefleti, `til to the termes of the lowere Bethoron, and of Gazer; and the cuntrees therof ben endid with the greet see,

這是若瑟的兒子默納協和厄弗辣因分得的產業。

4 whiche cuntreis Manasses and Effraym, the sones of Joseph, weldiden.

這是若望的兒子默納協和厄弗辣因分得的產業。

5 And the terme of the sones of Effraym, bi her meynees, and `the possessioun of hem was maad ayens the eest, Accarothaddar `til to the hiyere Bethoron.

以下是厄弗辣因子孫按照家族分得的土地：他們產業的邊界，東面是阿塔洛特阿達爾，直到上貝特曷龍，

6 And the coostis goon out in to the see; sotheli Mathmetath biholdith the north, and cumpassith the termes ayens the eest in Tharnarselo,

直達於海。北端是米革默塔特，由此向東轉向塔納特史羅，越過雅諾亞東部，

7 and passith fro the stronde of Janee; and it goith doun fro Janee in to Atharoth and Noathara, and cometh in to Jerico; and it goith out to Jordan fro Taphua,

再由雅諾亞下至阿塔洛特和納阿辣，經耶利哥直達約旦河。

8 and passith ayens the see in to the valey of `the place of rehedis; and the goyngis out therof ben to the salteste see. This is the possessioun of the sones of Effraym, bi her meynees;

又從塔普亞往西到卡納谷，直達於海：以上是厄弗辣因子孫按照家族分得的產業。

9 and citees and the townes of tho ben departid to the sones of Effraym, in the myddis of the possessioun of the sones of Manasses.

此外，屬默納協子孫的產業中，還有給厄弗辣因子孫保留的城市──城市和所屬的村鎮。

10 And the sones of Effraym killiden not Cananey, that dwellide in Gazer; and Cananey dwellide tributarie in the myddis of Effraym til in to this day.

但是他們未能將住在革則爾的客納罕人趕走，因此客納罕人直到今天還住在厄弗辣因人中間，充當苦役。
