Wɔde asase no fa a ɛda atɔe fam no maa Manase abusuakuw no fa a ɔyɛ Yosef babarima panyin no asefo. Na wɔde Gilead ne Basan a ɛda Yordan apuei fam no ama Makir abusua no dedaw, efisɛ na ɔyɛ ɔkofo kɛse. (Na Makir yɛ Manase babarima panyin ne Gilead agya.)
2 eya ta, azɔ la, wotsɔ anyigba si le Yɔdan tɔsisi la ƒe ɣetoɖoƒe la na hlɔ̃ siwo dzɔ tso Abiezer, Helek, Asriel, Sekem, Semida kple Hefer me.
Asase a ɛda Yordan atɔe fam no, wɔde maa mmusua nkae a wɔwɔ Manase abusuakuw mu a wɔn ne: Abieser, Helek, Asriel, Sekem, Hefer ne Semida.
3 Viŋutsu aɖeke menɔ Zelofehad si o, Zelofehad fofoe nye Hefer, ame si fofoe nye Gilead, ame si fofoe nye Makir, ame si hã fofoe nye Manase. Vinyɔnu atɔ̃ koe nɔ esi, woawoe nye: Mahla, Noa, Hogla, Milka kple Tirza.
Nanso na Hefer babarima Selofehad a na ɔno nso yɛ Manase, Makir ne Gilead aseni no nni mmabarima. Mmom, na ɔwɔ mmabea baanum. Na wɔn din de Mahla, Noa, Hogla, Milka ne Tirsa.
4 Nyɔnu siawo va nunɔla Eleazar kple Nun ƒe vi Yosua kpakple Israel ƒe kplɔlawo gbɔ, eye woɖo ŋku edzi na wo be, “Yehowa gblɔ na Mose be míaxɔ domenyinu abe ŋutsu siwo le míaƒe to la me ene tututu,” eya ta abe ale si Yehowa ɖoe da ɖi ene la, wona anyigba wo abe ŋutsuawo ene.
Saa mmea yi baa ɔsɔfo Eleasar ne Nun babarima Yosua ne Israel ntuanofo no nkyɛn bɛkae se, “Awurade hyɛɛ Mose sɛ ɔmma yɛn ne mmarima a wɔwɔ yɛn abusuakuw mu no agyapade.” Enti Yosua maa wɔn ne wɔn agyanom agyapade sɛnea Awurade hyɛe no.
5 Le esia ta la, Manase xɔ mama ewo kpe ɖe Gilead kple Basan ŋu le Yɔdan tɔsisi la ƒe ɣedzeƒe
Ɛno nti Manase agyapade bɛyɛɛ nsaseteaa du a Gilead ne Basan a ɛdeda Asubɔnten Yordan agya no ka ho,
6 esi wona anyigba eƒe dzidzimevi siwo nye nyɔnuwo kple ŋutsuwo siaa ta. Wotsɔ Gileadnyigba na Manase ƒe dzidzimevi bubuawo.
efisɛ Manase asefo a wɔyɛ mmea no ne wɔn a wɔyɛ mmarima nyaa agyapade. (Wɔde Gilead asase no maa Manase asefo a wɔyɛ mmarima nkae no).
7 Manase ƒe viwo ƒe anyigba ƒe anyigbemeliƒo ɖo ta anyigbeme lɔƒo tso Aser ƒe liƒo dzi yi Mixmetat, le Sekem ƒe ɣedzeƒe. Le anyigbeme la, liƒo la tso Mixmetat yi Tapua ƒe vudo gbɔ.
Manase abusuakuw no hye no fi Aser hye ano kosi Mikmetat, a ɛwɔ Sekem apuei fam. Afei, ɔhye no fi Mikmetat kɔ anafo fam, kosi nnipa a wɔte bɛn Tapua nsu no ho no.
8 Tapuanyigba nye Manase ƒe viwo tɔ, ke Tapua du la, si le Manase ƒe viwo ƒe anyigba ƒe liƒo dzi la nye Efraim ƒe viwo tɔ.
(Asase a atwa Tapua ho ahyia no yɛ Manase dea, nanso Tapua kurow no a ɛda Manase mantam no hye so no yɛ Efraim abusuakuw no dea.)
9 Manase ƒe viwo ƒe liƒo la to Tapua ƒe vudo la ŋu to Kana tɔʋu la ƒe dziehe yi Domeƒu la ŋu. Du geɖe siwo nɔ tɔʋu la ƒe dziehe la nye Efraim ƒe to la tɔ togbɔ be wonɔ Manase ƒe viwo ƒe anyigba dzi hã.
Manase hye no fi Tapua asu no, nenam Kana suka atifi kosi Po Kɛse no. (Nkurow bebree a ɛwɔ Manase mantam mu no yɛ Efraim abusuakuw no dea.)
10 Wotsɔ anyigba si le tɔʋu la ƒe dziehe heyi keke Domeƒu la ƒe ɣetoɖoƒe la na Efraim ƒe viwo, eye wotsɔ anyigba si le tɔʋu la ƒe anyiehe kple atsiaƒu la ƒe ɣedzeƒe la na Manase ƒe viwo. Woƒe anyieheliƒoe nye Aser ƒe viwo ƒe anyigba. Woƒe ɣedzeƒeliƒoe nye Isaka ƒe viwo ƒe anyigba.
Asase a ɛda suka no anafo fam no yɛ Efraim dea, na nea ɛda atifi fam nso yɛ Manase de; na Po kɛse no yɛ Manase asase no hye wɔ atɔe fam. Aser asase no da Manase de no atifi fam, na Isakar asase no nso da apuei fam.
11 Wotsɔ Bet Sean, Ibleam, Dor, Endor, Taanak Megido afi si to etɔ̃ nɔ kple kɔƒe siwo ƒo xlã wo la na Manase ƒe viwo ƒe to afã togbɔ be wonɔ anyigba siwo wona Isaka ƒe viwo kple Aser ƒe viwo dzi hã.
Wɔde saa nkurow a ɛwɔ Isakar ne Aser mantam mu no maa Manase: Bet-Sean, Yibleam, Dor (a ɛyɛ Nafɔt Dor), En-Dor, Taanak ne Megido ne wɔn nkuraa.
12 Esi Manase ƒe dzidzimeviwo mete ŋu nya ame siwo nɔ du mawo me ɖa o ta la, Kanaantɔ mawo tsi anyi.
Nanso Manase asefo no antumi amfa saa nkurow yi. Wɔantumi antu Kanaanfo a na wɔte hɔ no.
13 Esi Israelviwo va kpɔ ŋusẽ emegbe la, wozi Kanaantɔwo dzi, eye wosubɔa wo abe kluviwo ene.
Akyiri no, bere a Israelfo nyaa ahoɔden no, wɔhyɛɛ Kanaanfo no ma wɔyɛɛ adwuma sɛ nkoa. Nanso wɔampam wɔn amfi asase no so.
14 Yosef ƒe to eveawo me tɔwo va bia Yosua be, “Nu ka ta nèna anyigba ɖeka ko mí le esime Yehowa na míedzi sɔ gbɔ ale?”
Yosef asefo baa Yosua nkyɛn bebisaa no se, “Adɛn nti na woama yɛn asasetaw baako pɛ wɔ bere a Awurade ama yɛn ase adɔ?”
15 Yosua gblɔ na wo be, “Ne Efraim ƒe tonyigba melolo na mi o la, ekema miƒo avenyigba si dzi Perizitɔwo kple Refaimtɔwo le.”
Yosua buaa se, “Sɛ Efraim bepɔw asase no sua ma mo a, monkɔdɔw kwae a Perisifo ne Refaitefo te so no.”
16 Yosef ƒe amewo ɖo eŋu be, “Tonyigba la melolo na mí o, ke gatasiaɖamwo le Kanaantɔ siwo le gbadzaƒe la kple esiwo le Bet Sean kple du siwo ƒo xlãe kple esiwo le Yezreel ƒe balime la si.”
Na wobuae se, “Bepɔw so asase no sua ma yɛn, na Kanaanfo a wɔwɔ bepɔw no ase nsase a atwa Bet-Sean ne Yesreel bon ho ahyia no wɔ nnade nteaseɛnam, na wɔn ho yɛ den dodo ma yɛn.”
17 Yosua gblɔ na Yosef ƒe aƒe, Efraim ƒe vi kple Manase ƒe vi siwo nɔ ɣetoɖoƒe la be, “Miesɔ gbɔ nyateƒe, eye miesẽa ŋu ŋutɔ, eya ta ele be miaxɔ anyigba wòalolo.
Na Yosua ka kyerɛɛ Efraim ne Manase mmusuakuw a wɔyɛ Yosef asefo no se, “Esiane sɛ mo dɔɔso na mo ho yɛ den nti, mubenya nsasetam no bi aka baako no ho.
18 Tonyigba la anye mia tɔ togbɔ be enye anyigba si dzi ave le hã la, miƒo avea, eye miaxɔ anyigba la tso eƒe liƒo sia dzi yi liƒo kemɛ dzi togbɔ be gatasiaɖamwo le Kanaantɔwo si, eye wonye dukɔ sesẽ aɖe hã la, mianya wo ɖa le anyigba la dzi.”
Wɔde kwae a ɛda bepɔw no so no bɛka mo ho. Monnɔw asase no sɛnea mubetumi biara na montena hɔ. Ɛwɔ mu sɛ Kanaanfo no ho yɛ den na wɔwɔ nnade nteaseɛnam, nanso mewɔ awerehyɛmu sɛ mubetumi apam wɔn afi obon no mu.”
