Josoa 17
1 Nahazo anjara an-tsapake ka ty fifokoa’ i Menasè; toe ie ty tañoloñoloña’ Iosefe; I Makire ty tañoloñoloña’ i Menasè naho ty rae’ i Gilade, aa kanao nilahin-defoñe, ie ty nahazo i Gilade naho i Basane.
This was the lot for the tribe of Manasseh, for he was the firstborn of Joseph. As for Makir the firstborn of Manasseh, the father of Gilead, because he was a man of war, therefore he had Gilead and Bashan.
2 Nahazo tane an-tsapake ka o ana’ i Menasè ila’eo ty amo hasavereña’eo; ho amo ana’ i Abiezereo, naho o ana’ i Kelekeo, naho o ana’ i Asrieleo, naho o ana’ i Sekemeo, naho o ana’ i Hefereo, vaho o ana’ i Semidao; ie ro ana-dahi’ i Menasè, ana’ Iosefe, ty amo hasavereña’eo.
So this was for the rest of the descendants of Manasseh according to their families: for the descendants of Abiezer, for the descendants of Helek, for the descendants of Asriel, for the descendants of Shechem, for the descendants of Hepher, and for the descendants of Shemida: these were the male descendants of Manasseh the son of Joseph according to their families.
3 Fe tsy nanañ’ ana-dahy t’i Tselofekhade, ana’ i Hefere, ana’ i Gilade, ana’ i Makire, ana’ i Menasè, fa anak’ ampela avao, inao ty añara’ o anak’ ampela’eo: i Maklae, i Noae, i Koglae, i Milkae naho i Tirtsae.
But Zelophehad, the son of Hepher, the son of Gilead, the son of Makir, the son of Manasseh, had no sons, but daughters: and these are the names of his daughters: Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah.
4 Nimb’ añatrefa’ i Eleatsare mpisoroñe mb’eo iereo naho añatrefa’ Iehosoa ana’ i None, naho añatrefa’ o roandriañeo nanao ty hoe: Linili’ Iehovà t’i Mosè t’ie hitoloran-dova amo rahalahi’aio. Aa le amy lili’ Iehovày, nitolora’e lova amo longon-droae’eo.
They came near before Eleazar the priest, and before Joshua the son of Nun, and before the leaders, saying, "Jehovah commanded Moses to give us an inheritance among our brothers." Therefore according to the commandment of Jehovah he gave them an inheritance among the brothers of their father.
5 Anjara folo ty nitsatoke ho a i Menasè mandikoatse i tane Gilade naho i Basaney, alafe’ Iardeney añe;
Ten parts fell to Manasseh, besides the land of Gilead and Bashan, which is beyond the Jordan;
6 amy te nanañ’ anjara amo ana-dahi’eo i anak’ ampela’ i Menasè rey; nahazo ty tane Gilade o ana’ i Menasè ila’eo.
because the daughters of Manasseh had an inheritance among his sons. The land of Gilead belonged to the rest of the sons of Manasseh.
7 Boak’ Asere pake Mikemetà aolo’ i Sekeme ty efe’ i Menasè; mionjomb’eo i efetsey añ’ila’e ankavana mb’ an-kiboho’ i En-Tapoà mb’eo.
The border of Manasseh was from Asher to Michmethath, which is before Shechem. The border went along to the right hand to Jashub and to En Tappuah.
8 A i Menasè ty tane’ i Tapoà’ fe a o ana’ i Efraimeo ty ila’ i Tapoà mifañefetse amy Menasè.
The land of Tappuah belonged to Manasseh; but Tappuah, on the border of Manasseh, belonged to the descendants of Ephraim.
9 Mizotso mb’ an-tsaka Kanà mb’eo i efetsey, atimo’ i sakay, (a i Efraime añivo’ i Menasè ao i rova rey), mañolotse ty avara’ i sakay ty efe’ i Menasè vaho mandoak’ an-driakey.
The border went down to the brook of Kanah, southward of the wadi. These cities belonged to Ephraim among the cities of Manasseh. The border of Manasseh was on the north side of the wadi, and ended at the sea.
10 Mañatimo ty a’ i Efraime naho mañavaratse ty a’ i Menasè, le i riakey ro efe’e; mahatakatse i Asere t’ie avaratse naho Isakhare te atiñanañe.
Southward it was Ephraim's, and northward it was Manasseh's, and the sea was his border. They reached to Asher on the north, and to Issachar on the east.
11 Hoe zao o rova’ i Menasè e Isakhare naho e Asereo: i Beteseane naho o tanà’eo naho Ibleame naho o tanà’eo naho o mpimone’ i Dore naho o tanà’eo naho o mpimone’ i Endore rekets’ o tanà’eo, naho o mpimone’ i Taanàke rekets’ o tanà’eo vaho o mpimone’ i Megido rekets’ o tanà’eo, fifeheañe telo.
And Manasseh had in Issachar and in Asher, Beth Shean and its towns, and Ibleam and its towns, and the inhabitants of Dor and its towns, and the inhabitants of Endor and its towns, and the inhabitants of Taanach and its towns, and the inhabitants of Megiddo and its towns; three regions.
12 Tsy nahafandroake o mpimone’ i rova reio t’i Menasè; fe nifonem-pitobok’ amy taney o nte-Kanàneo.
Yet the descendants of Manasseh couldn't drive out the inhabitants of those cities; but the Canaanites would dwell in that land.
13 Aa naho nitombo ty haozara’ o ana’ Israeleo le nametsaha’ iareo haba o nte-Kanàneo, fa tsy fonga rinoake.
It happened, when the children of Israel had grown strong, that they put the Canaanites to forced labor, and did not utterly drive them out.
14 Ninday saontsy am’ Iehosoa ka o ana’ Iosefeo nanao ty hoe: Aa vaho akore te tinolo’o anjara raike naho vaki’e ho lovako, ie oniñe te ondaty jabajaba ami’ty fitahia’ Iehovà ahy?
The descendants of Joseph spoke to Joshua, saying, "Why have you given me just one lot and one part for an inheritance, since I am a great people, because Jehovah has blessed me so far?"
15 Le hoe ty natoi’ Iehosoa: Aa kanao ondaty ra’elahy irehe, akia mb’ añ’ala mb’eo vaho hatsafo ho azo ty tanen-te Perize naho ty a o Rafào, ie maifitse ama’o o vohibohi’ i Efraimeo.
Joshua said to them, "If you are a great people, go up to the forest, and clear land for yourself there in the land of the Perizzites and of the Rephaim; since the hill country of Ephraim is too narrow for you."
16 Le hoe o ana’ Iosefeo: Tsy mahatsak’ anay o vohibohitseo, naho songa manan-tsarete viñe o nte-Kanàne mimoneñe am-bavataneo, o e Beteseane naho amo tanà’eo vaho o amy vavatane’ Iizreeleio.
The descendants of Joseph said, "The hill country is not enough for us. All the Canaanites who dwell in the land of the valley have chariots of iron, both those who are in Beth Shean and its towns, and those who are in the Valley of Jezreel."
17 Tinoi’ Iehosoa i anjomba’ Iosefey, i Efraime naho i Menasè, ty hoe: Kanao ondaty jabajaba irehe, lifots-aozarañe; tsy ho anjara raik’ avao ty ho azo;
Joshua spoke to the house of Joseph, even to Ephraim and to Manasseh, saying, "You are a great people, and have great power. You shall not have one lot only;
18 fe ho azo i vohibohitsey, fa ndra t’ie ala, ho hatsafe’o, le ho azo pak’añ’ efe’e lavitse añe; fa ho roahe’o o nte-Kanàneo ndra t’ie aman-tsarete viñe, ndra te maozatse.
but the hill country shall be yours. Although it is a forest, you shall cut it down, and its farthest extent shall be yours; for you shall drive out the Canaanites, though they have chariots of iron, and though they are strong."
