< Jozue 16 >
1 Eteni ya mabele ya bakitani ya Jozefi ebandaki wuta na Yordani, pene ya Jeriko, na ngambo ya este ya mayi ya Jeriko, na esobe oyo emata na Jeriko na mokili ya bangomba ya Beteli.
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 Ekendeki longwa na Beteli kino na Luze, elekaki na ngambo ya bandelo ya bato ya Ariki mpe Ataroti,
And goeth out from Bethel to Luza: and passeth the border of Archi, to Ataroth,
3 ekitaki kino na ngambo ya weste na mondelo ya bato ya Yafeleti kino na etuka ya Beti-Oroni ya se, kino na Gezeri ya suka mpe esukaki na Ebale monene.
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 Boye bana mibali ya Jozefi, Manase mpe Efrayimi, bazwaki eteni ya mabele lokola libula.
And Manasses and Ephraim the children of Joseph possessed it.
5 Tala eteni ya mabele ya bakitani ya Efrayimi kolanda bituka na bango: Mondelo ya eteni ya mabele na bango ezalaki na ngambo ya este, longwa na Ataroti-Adari kino na Beti-Oroni ya likolo;
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 ekobaki kino na Ebale monene. Na ngambo ya weste, mondelo ezalaki longwa na Mikimeta na ngambo ya nor, ebalukaki na ngambo ya este na Tanati-Silo, elekelaki wana kino na Yanoa, na ngambo ya este.
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 Mpe lisusu ekitaki longwa na Yanoa kino na Ataroti mpe na Naarata, etutanaki na Jeriko mpe ekendeki kobima kino na Yordani.
And it goeth down from Janoe into Ataroth and Naaratha: and it cometh to Jericho, and goeth out to the Jordan.
8 Longwa na Tapua, ekendeki na ngambo ya weste kino na moluka ya Kana mpe ekendeki kosuka na Ebale monene. Yango nde ezalaki eteni ya libula ya bakitani ya libota ya Efrayimi, kolanda bituka na bango.
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 Ebakisamaki mpe bingumba nyonso elongo na bamboka na yango ya mike-mike oyo epesamelaki bato ya libota ya Efrayimi kati na libula ya bato ya libota ya 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 Kasi babenganaki te bato ya Kanana oyo bazalaki kovanda na Gezeri. Yango wana, bato ya Kanana bazali kovanda kati na bato ya Efrayimi kino na mokolo ya lelo. Kasi bakomaki kosalisa bango misala makasi oyo ekoki na bawumbu.
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.
