< Joshua 16 >

1 Bũrũri ũrĩa wagaĩirwo ciana cia Jusufu wambĩrĩirie kuuma Jorodani o kũu Jeriko, mwena wa irathĩro wa maaĩ ma Jeriko, ũkambata kuuma kũu Jeriko, ũgatuĩkanĩria kũu werũ-inĩ nginya bũrũri ũrĩa ũrĩ irĩma ũgakinya Betheli.
And the lot of the sons of Joseph fell from the Jordan over against Jericho and the waters thereof, on the east: the wilderness which goeth up from Jericho to the mountain of Bethel:
2 Wacookete ũgathiĩ na mbere kuuma Betheli (na nokuo Luzu), ũkaringa ũgakinya bũrũri wa Aariki o kũu Atarothu,
And goeth out from Bethel to Luza: and passeth the border of Archi, to Ataroth,
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 goeth down westward, by the border of Jephleti, unto the borders of Beth-horon the nether, and to Gazer: and the countries of it are ended by the great sea:
4 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Manase na Efiraimu, njiaro cia Jusufu, ikĩĩgwatĩra igai rĩao.
And Manasses and Ephraim the children of Joseph possessed it.
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 border of the children of Ephraim was according to their kindreds: and their possession towards the east was Ataroth-addar unto Beth-horon the upper.
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 confines go out unto the sea: but Machmethath looketh to the north, and it goeth round the borders eastward into Thanath-selo: and passeth along on the east side to Janoe.
7 Ũgacooka ũgaikũrũka kuuma Janoa nginya Atarothu na Naara, ũkahutia Jeriko, na ũkoimĩrĩra Rũũĩ rwa Jorodani.
And it goeth down from Janoe into Ataroth and Naaratha: and it cometh to Jericho, and goeth out to the 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.
From Taphua it passeth on towards the sea into the valley of reeds, and the goings out thereof are at the most salt sea. This is the possession of the tribe of the children of Ephraim by 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 there were cities with their villages separated for the children of Ephraim in the midst of the possession of the children of Manasses.
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 the children of Ephraim slew not the Chanaanite, who dwelt in Gazer: and the Chanaanite dwelt in the midst of Ephraim until this day, paying tribute.
