And the lot of the children of Joseph fell from Jordan by Jericho, unto the water of Jericho on the east, to the wilderness that goeth up from Jericho throughout mount Beth–el,
2 to afi ma yi Luz kple Atarɔt
And goeth out from Beth–el to Luz, and passeth along unto the borders of Archi to Ataroth,
3 le Arkitɔwo ƒe anyigba dzi, ɖo ta ɣetoɖoƒe, yi Yafletitɔwo ƒe liƒo dzi, yi keke Bet Horon le gbadzaƒe, to Gezer heyi ɖatɔ Domeƒu la.
And goeth down westward to the coast of Japhleti, unto the coast of Beth–horon the nether, and to Gezer: and the goings out thereof are at the sea.
4 Esiae nye anyigba si Yosef ƒe viwo, Manase kple Efraim woxɔ.
So the children of Joseph, Manasseh and Ephraim, took their inheritance.
5 Esiae nye Efraim ƒe viwo ƒe anyigba le woƒe ƒome nu. Efraim ƒe viwo ƒe anyigba ƒe liƒo tso Atarot Ada ɖo ta ɣedzeƒe heyi Bet Horon le toawo dzi,
And the border of the children of Ephraim according to their families was thus: even the border of their inheritance on the east side was Ataroth–addar, unto Beth–horon the upper;
6 eye wòtso afi ma yi Domeƒu la ŋu. Mixmetat nɔ eƒe anyiehe lɔƒo. Liƒo la bi ɖo ta ɣedzeƒe; edze le Taanat Silo ŋu le Yanoa ƒe ɣedzeƒe
And the border went out toward the sea to Michmethah on the north side; and the border went about eastward unto Taanath–shiloh, and passed by it on the east to Janohah;
7 hetrɔ yi anyigbeme, yi Atarɔt kple Naara, ɖatɔ Yeriko, eye wòwu nu ɖe Yɔdan tɔsisi la nu.
And it went down from Janohah to Ataroth, and to Naarath, and came to Jericho, and went out at Jordan.

The border went out from Tappuah westward unto the river Kanah; and the goings out thereof were at the sea. This is the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Ephraim by their families.
9 Wotsɔ du aɖewo tso Manase to la ƒe afã ƒe anyigba dzi hã na Efraim ƒe viwo.
And the separate cities for the children of Ephraim were among the inheritance of the children of Manasseh, all the cities with their villages.
10 Womenya Kanaantɔ siwo nɔ Gezer la ɖa le anyigba la dzi o, ale wogale Efraim ƒe viwo dome abe kluviwo ene.
And they drave not out the Canaanites that dwelt in Gezer: but the Canaanites dwell among the Ephraimites unto this day, and serve under tribute.
