< Yosua 16 >
1 Kemudian keluarlah undian bagi bani Yusuf. Batas mereka mulai dari sungai Yordan dekat Yerikho, di sebelah timur mata-mata air Yerikho, melalui padang gurun, yang naik dari Yerikho ke pegunungan, ke Betel,
Similarly, the lot of the sons of Joseph fell from the Jordan, opposite Jericho and its waters, to the east, to the wilderness that ascends from Jericho to the mountain of Bethel.
2 keluar dari Betel menuju ke Lus, terus ke daerah orang Arki, ke Atarot,
And it goes out from Bethel to Luz. And it crosses the border of Archi to Ataroth.
3 turun ke barat ke daerah orang Yaflet, sampai daerah Bet-Horon Hilir dan selanjutnya sampai Gezer dan berakhir di laut.
And it descends to the west, beside the border of Japhleti, as far as the borders of lower Beth-horon, and to Gezer. And the last parts of its regions are by the great sea.
4 Demikianlah bani Yusuf, yakni suku Manasye dan suku Efraim, menerima milik pusaka.
And Manasseh and Ephraim, the sons of Joseph, possessed it.
5 Daerah bani Efraim menurut kaum-kaum mereka ialah demikian: batas milik pusaka mereka ke timur ialah Atarot-Adar sampai Bet-Horon Hulu.
And the border of the sons of Ephraim was made by their families. And their possession toward the east was from Ataroth-addar, as far as upper Beth-horon,
6 Ke barat batas itu keluar di sebelah utara Mikhmetat; kemudian batas itu membelok ke timur ke Taanat-Silo, dan dari sana terus sampai ke sebelah timur Yanoah,
and the confines extend to the sea. Yet truly, Michmethath looks toward the north, and it circles around the borders, toward the east, into Taanath-shiloh. And it continues on, from the east, to Janoah.
7 turun dari Yanoah ke Atarot dan Naharat, menyinggung daerah Yerikho dan keluar ke sungai Yordan.
And it descends from Janoah to Ataroth and Naarah. and it continues to Jericho, and it extends to the Jordan.
8 Dari Tapuah batas itu terus ke barat ke sungai Kana dan berakhir ke laut. Itulah milik pusaka suku bani Efraim menurut kaum-kaum mereka.
From Tappuah, it passes on, opposite the sea, into the Valley of Reeds. And its exit is at the very salty sea. This is the possession of the tribe of the sons of Ephraim, by their families.
9 Selanjutnya bagi bani Efraim ditentukan kota-kota terpisah di tengah-tengah milik pusaka bani Manasye, segala kota itu dengan desa-desanya.
And there were cities, with their villages, which were set aside for the sons of Ephraim, in the midst of the possession of the sons of Manasseh.
10 Tetapi orang Kanaan yang diam di Gezer tidaklah dihalau mereka. Jadi orang Kanaan itu masih tetap tinggal di tengah-tengah suku Efraim sampai sekarang, tetapi menjadi budak rodi.
And the sons of Ephraim did not put to death the Canaanite that was living at Gezer. And the Canaanite lived in the midst of Ephraim, even to this day, paying tribute.
