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.
Then came out the lot, for the sons of Joseph, from the Jordan by Jericho, at the waters of Jericho, eastward, —the desert, going up from Jericho, through the hill country to Bethel;
2 Wacookete ũgathiĩ na mbere kuuma Betheli (na nokuo Luzu), ũkaringa ũgakinya bũrũri wa Aariki o kũu Atarothu,
and it goeth out from Bethel towards Luz, —and passeth over unto the boundary of the Archites at 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 descendeth westward, unto the boundary of the Japhletites, as far as the boundary of Bethhoron the nether, and as far as Gezer, —and the extensions thereof are to the sea.
4 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Manase na Efiraimu, njiaro cia Jusufu, ikĩĩgwatĩra igai rĩao.
So the sons of Joseph, Manasseh and Ephraim, received 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 boundary of the sons of Ephraim, by their families, was, —yea the boundary of their inheritance on the east, was Ataroth-addar, as far as 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 boundary goeth out westward at Michmethath, on the north, then the boundary bendeth round easward, to Taanath-shiloh, —and passeth by it on the east to Janoah;
7 Ũgacooka ũgaikũrũka kuuma Janoa nginya Atarothu na Naara, ũkahutia Jeriko, na ũkoimĩrĩra Rũũĩ rwa Jorodani.
and goeth down from Janoah to Ataroth and to Naarah, —and toucheth upon Jericho, and goeth out at 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 Tappuah, runneth the boundary along westward, to the ravine of Kanah, and the extensions thereof are to the sea, —this, is the inheritance of the tribe of the sons 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.
together with the cities which were separated for the sons of Ephraim, in the midst of the inheritance of the sons of Manasseh, —all the cities, with 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.
But they did not dispossess the Canaanites who were dwelling in Gazer, —so the Canaanites have dwelt in the midst of Ephraim unto this day, and have become tributary servants.
