1 Hanki Josefena zage mofavre'amofo Manase naga nofira mago mopa refko huzami'naze. Hagi Manasena zage mofavre'a Makirikino Gileati vahe'mokizmi nezmafa'e. Na'ankure agra korapara harfa ne' mani'negu Giliatine Basani mopa agri nagara refko huzami'naze.

This was the assignment of land for the tribe of Manasseh (who was the firstborn of Joseph)—that is, for Makir, who was Manasseh's firstborn and who himself was the father of Gilead. Makir's descendants were assigned the land of Gilead and Bashan, because Makir had been a man of war.

2 Hagi amu'nompinti'ma mago'a Manase naga'ma refkoma hu'za mani'naza nagara, nagate nofite hu'za mopama refko huzami'nazana, Abiesama, Helekima, Asrielima, Sekemima, Heferine Semitane huno refko huzami'naze. Hanki ama ana nagara Josefe mofavre Manase nagapinti efora hu'naza vene'negi'za, mago mago naga'nofite'ma ugota hu'naza vahe'mokizmi zamagi'a me'ne.

Land was assigned to the rest of the tribe of Manasseh, given to their clans—Abiezer, Helek, Asriel, Shechem, Hepher, and Shemida. These were the male descendants of Manasseh son of Joseph, presented by their clans.

3 Hagi Serofehati'a Heferi mofavre manigeno, Heferi'a Gileati mofavre manigeno, Gileati'a Makiri mofavre manigeno, Makiri'a Manase mofavre mani'ne. Hianagi Zelofehati'a mago ne' mofavrea onte'neanki, mofanege zmante'neankino zamagi'a amanahu hu'ne, Malaki, Noaki, Hoklaki, Milkaki Tirsaki huno zamante'ne.

Now Zelophehad son of Hepher son of Gilead son of Makir son of Manasseh had no sons, but only daughters. The names of his daughters were Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milkah, and Tirzah.

4 Hanki ana mofa'nemo'za zamagra pristi ne' Eliesane, Nuni nemofo Josuane, mago'a Israeli kva vahete vu'za amanage hu'naze, Ra Anumzamo Mosesena asamino, tasarehe'zama mopama erisafintira mago'a tagrikura mopa zamiho huno hunte'ne. E'ina hu'negu Josua'a Ra Anumzamo'ma hu'nea kante anteno mopazamifinti zamasarerehe'mokizmia mago'a mopa zami'ne.

They approached Eleazar the priest, Joshua son of Nun, and the leaders, and they said, “Yahweh commanded Moses to give to us an inheritance along with our brothers.” So, following the commandment of Yahweh, he gave those women an inheritance among the brothers of their father.

5 Hagi Manase naga'mo'za Jodani timofo zage hanati kaziga Gileati mopane Bashani mopanena eri'ne'za, mago'ane 10niafi refkoma huzami'naza mopanena eri'naze.

Ten parcels of land were assigned to Manasseh in Gilead and Bashan, which is on the other side of the Jordan,

because the daughters of Manasseh received an inheritance along with his sons. The land of Gilead was assigned to the rest of the tribe of Manasseh.

7 Hanki Manase naga nofi'mofo mopamo'a, Aseriti agafa huteno Sekemu zage hanati kaziga Mikmetati vu'ne. Hagi anantetira mopamofo agema'amo'a henkamu sauti kaziga uramino En-Tapuama nemaniza vahera zamazerigu'a ate'ne.

The territory of Manasseh reached from Asher to Mikmethath, which is east of Shechem. Then the border went southward to those living near the spring of Tappuah.

8 Tapua mopa Manase naga nofi'mofo mopa megeno, Tapua rankumara Manase naga'mofo mopa agema'arega me'neanagi, Efraemi naga'mofo mopa me'ne.

(The land of Tappuah belonged to Manasseh, but the town of Tappuah on the border of Manasseh belonged to the tribe of Ephraim.)

9 Hagi anantetira mopamofo agema'amo'a fenkamu sauti kaziga uramino Kana osi tinte uhanati'ne. Ana timofo sauti kazigama me'nea rankuma tamina, Efraemi naga'mofo kumatamine. E'ina rankumatamimo'a Manase naga rankumatamimofo amu'nompi me'ne. Hianagi Manase naga'mofo mopa agema'amo'a Kana osi tinkagomu'mofo noti kaziga evuteno, vuno Mediterenia ra hagerintega uhanati'ne.

The border went down to the brook of Kanah. These cities south of the brook among the towns of Manasseh belonged to Ephraim. The border of Manasseh was on the north side of the brook, and it ended at the sea.

10 Hanki Sauti kazigama me'nea mopa Efraemi naga'mokizmi mope. Hagi noti kazigama me'nea mopa Manase naga'mokizmi mopagino zage fre kaziga Mediterenia ra hagerikenare ome atre'ne. Hagi Manase naga'mofo mopa agema'amo'a rugitagigeno, Aseli nagamofo mopa noti kaziga megeno, Isakar naga'mofo mopa zage hanati kaziga me'ne.

The land to the south belonged to Ephraim, and the land to the north was Manasseh's; the sea was the border. On the north side Asher can be reached, and to the east, Issachar.

11 Hanki Manase naga'mofo mopa Isaka naga'ene Aseli naga'mokizmi mopafina me'neana, Betsani rankuma'ene ne'eonse kumatamima tavaoma'are'ma me'nea kumatamine, Ibliamu rankuma'ene, ne'onse kumatamima tava'oma'are'ma me'nea kumatamine, Nafat Dori rankuma'ene, Endori rankuma'ene, Tamak rankuma'ene, Megido rankuma'ene ana maka ra kumatamimofo tavao zamire'ma me'nea neonse kumatamia Manase naga'mo'za eri'naze.

Also in Issachar and in Asher, Manasseh possessed Beth Shan and its villages, Ibleam and its villages, the inhabitants of Dor and its villages, the inhabitants of Endor and its villages, the inhabitants of Taanach and its villages, and the inhabitants of Megiddo and its villages (and the third city is Napheth).

12 Ana hu'neanagi Manase naga'mo'za ana rankumatamimpintira Kenani vahera zamahenati otre zamatrage'za ana mopafi mani'naze.

Yet the tribe of Manasseh could not take possession of those cities, for the Canaanites continued to live in this land.

13 Hianagi Israeli vahe'mo'zama hankave nentake'ma nehu'za, Kenani vahera zamahenatitre vagaore'nazanki, mago'a zamatrage'za manine'za Israeli vahe'mokizmi kazokzo eri'za eri zamante'naze.

When the people of Israel grew strong, they put the Canaanites to forced labor, but did not completely drive them out.

14 Henka Josefe naga'mo'za Josuankura amanage hu'naze, Ra Anumzamo tagri nagara asomu hurantegeta rama'a vahe fore huta mani'nonanki, na'a higenka magoke mopagera tami'nane?

Then the descendants of Joseph said to Joshua, saying, “Why have you given us only one assignment of land and one portion for an inheritance, since we are a people great in number, and all along Yahweh has blessed us?”

15 Hagi Josua'a ke nonazmia amanage hu'ne, Tamagrama tusi'a vahe'ma fore hu'ne'nageno Efraemi agona mopamo'ma osi'ma huramante'nigeta, Perisi vahe'ene, Refaimi vahe mopafi anagamu zafa tanoparega marerita kumara ome eriama huta maniho.

Joshua said to them, “If you are a people great in number, go up by yourselves to the forest and there clear the ground for yourselves in the land of the Perizzites and of the Rephaim. Do this, since the hill country of Ephraim is too small for you.”

16 Hige'za Josefe naga'mo'za amanage hu'naze, agona mopamo'a knarera huorantegahie. Hianagi agupofima Kenani vahe'ma nemaniza vahe'ene, Bet Sani ran kumate'ene, ne'onse kuma'ma tava'oma'are'ma me'nea kumatamimpine, Jezrili agupofima nemaniza ha'ma hu'zana aenire karisi ante'naze.

The descendants of Joseph said, “The hill country is not enough for us. But all the Canaanites who live in the valley have chariots of iron, both those who are in Beth Shan and its villages, and those who are in the Valley of Jezreel.”

17 Hianagi Josua'a amanage huno Josefe mofavrerare Manasene, Efraemi naga'mokizmia zamasami'ne, Tamagra tusi'a vahe fore hutma hankavenentake hu'nazankita magoke mopafina omanigahaze.

Then Joshua said to the house of Joseph—to Ephraim and Manasseh, “You are a people great in number, and you have great power. You must not have only one piece of land assigned to you.

18 Hagi agonarega zafa mopa me'neanagi, tamagra amane ome eriama huta erigahaze. Inante zafa mopamo'a ome atre'neo, anama'a eriama'ma hanazama'amo'a tamagri mopa manegahie. Hanki Kenani vahe'mo'za aenire karisi ante'ne'za hanvenentake hu'nazanagi, tamagra amne zamahe natitregahaze.

The hill country will also be yours. Though it is a forest, you will clear it and take possession of it to its farthest borders. You will drive out the Canaanites, even though they have chariots of iron, and even though they are strong.”
