Yoshuwa 16
1 Rabon da aka ba wa Yusuf ya fara tun daga Urdun kusa da Yeriko, gabas da ruwan Yeriko, sai ya miƙe zuwa jeji, ya haura har zuwa cikin ƙasar tudu na Betel.
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 Ya ci gaba daga Betel (wato, Luz), ya zarce zuwa sashen Arkitawa na Atarot,
and it goeth out from Bethel towards Luz, —and passeth over unto the boundary of the Archites at Ataroth;
3 ya sauka zuwa yammancin bakin iyakar Yalfetiyawa har zuwa yankin Bet-Horon wanda yake cikin kwari. Ya zarce kuma zuwa Gezer, ya gangara ya yi ƙarshe a Bahar Rum.
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 Wannan ne yankin da aka ba wa Manasse da Efraim zuriyar Yusuf gādonsu.
So the sons of Joseph, Manasseh and Ephraim, received their inheritance.
5 Yankin Efraim ke nan bisa ga iyalansu. Iyakar ƙasarsu ta gādo ta kama daga Atarot Addar a gabas zuwa Bet-Horon,
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 ta wuce zuwa Bahar Rum. Daga Mikmetat a arewa kuwa iyakar ta karkata gabas zuwa Ta’anat Shilo, ta wuce zuwa Yanowa a gabas.
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 Sai ta gangara daga Yanowa zuwa Atarot da Na’ara, ta bi ta Yeriko, ta kuma fito ta Urdun.
and goeth down from Janoah to Ataroth and to Naarah, —and toucheth upon Jericho, and goeth out at the Jordan.
8 Daga Taffuwa kuma iyakar ta bi yamma zuwa kwazazzaban Kana, ta ƙarasa a Bahar Rum. Wannan shi ne gādon mutanen Efraim bisa ga iyalansu.
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 Gādon ya kuma haɗa da dukan garuruwa da ƙauyuka waɗanda aka keɓe wa mutanen Efraim daga cikin gādon mutanen Manasse.
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 Ba su kori Kan’aniyawan da suke zama a Gezer ba, don haka Kan’aniyawa suna zama tare da mutanen Efraim har wa yau; amma Kan’aniyawa suka zama masu yin aikin dole.
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.
