And the borders of the children of Joseph were from Jordan by Jericho eastward; and they will go up from Jericho to the hill country, to the wilderness, to Baethel Luza.

2 Wacookete ũgathiĩ na mbere kuuma Betheli (na nokuo Luzu), ũkaringa ũgakinya bũrũri wa Aariki o kũu Atarothu,

And they will go out to Baethel, and will proceed to the borders of Achatarothi.

3 ningĩ ũgaikũrũka na mwena wa ithũĩro, ũgakinya mũhaka-inĩ wa bũrũri wa Ajafileti, nginya rũgongo rwa Bethi-Horoni ya Mũhuro, na ũgacooka ũgathiĩ ũgakinya Gezeri, ũkarĩkĩrĩria iria-inĩ.

And they will go across to the sea to the borders of Aptalim, as far as the borders of Baethoron the lower, and the going forth of them shall be to the sea.

4 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Manase na Efiraimu, njiaro cia Jusufu, ikĩĩgwatĩra igai rĩao.

And the sons of Joseph, Ephraim and Manasse, took their inheritance.

5 Ũyũ nĩguo warĩ bũrũri wa Efiraimu, kũringana na ũrĩa mbarĩ ciao ciatariĩ: mwena wa irathĩro, mũhaka wa igai rĩao woimĩte Atarothu-Adari ũgathiĩ nginya Bethi-Horoni ya Rũgongo,

And the borders of the children of Ephraim were according to their families, and the borders of their inheritance were eastward to Ataroth, and Eroc as far as Baethoron the upper, and Gazara.

6 ũgathiĩ na mbere nginya iria-inĩ. Kuuma Mikemethathu mwena wa gathigathini, ũkarigiicũka na mwena wa irathĩro ũgakinya Taanathu-Shilo, ũkahĩtũkĩra kuo ũrorete na mwena wa irathĩro wa Janoa.

And the borders will proceed to the sea to Icasmon north of Therma; they will go round eastward to Thenasa, and Selles, and will pass on eastward to Janoca,

7 Ũgacooka ũgaikũrũka kuuma Janoa nginya Atarothu na Naara, ũkahutia Jeriko, na ũkoimĩrĩra Rũũĩ rwa Jorodani.

and to Macho, and Ataroth, and [these are] their villages; and they will come to Jericho, and will issue at Jordan.

8 Kuuma Tapua mũhaka ũcio ũgathiĩ ũrorete na mwena wa ithũĩro, ũgakinya mũkuru wa Kana, na ũkarĩkĩrĩria iria-inĩ. Rĩĩrĩ nĩrĩo rĩarĩ igai rĩa mũhĩrĩga wa Efiraimu, kũringana na ũrĩa mbarĩ ciao ciatariĩ.

And the borders will proceed from Tapho to the sea to Chelcana; and their termination will be at the sea; this [is] the inheritance of the tribe of Ephraim according to their families.

9 Bũrũri ũcio wothe warĩ hamwe na matũũra mothe na tũtũũra twamo tũrĩa Efiraimu maagaĩirwo thĩinĩ wa igai rĩa andũ a mũhĩrĩga wa Manase.

And the cities separated to the sons of Ephraim [were] in the midst of the inheritance of the sons of Manasse, all the cities and their villages.

10 No andũ a mũhĩrĩga wa Efiraimu matiigana kũrutũrũra andũ a Kaanani arĩa maatũũraga Gezeri; nginya ũmũthĩ andũ a Kaanani matũũranagia hamwe na andũ a Efiraimu, nao magĩtuĩka ndungata marutage wĩra o ũrĩa mangĩathwo marute.

And Ephraim did not destroy the Chananite who dwelt in Gazer; and the Chananite dwelt in Ephraim until this day, until Pharao the king of Egypt went up and took it, and burnt it with fire; and the Chananites, and Pherezites, and the dwellers in Gaza they destroyed, and Pharao gave them for a dowry to his daughter.
