Hohua 16

1 A, ko te rota i nga tama a Hohepa, i rere atu i Horano i Heriko, i nga wai o Heriko ki te rawhiti, a tae noa ki te koraha, e aupiki atu ra i Heriko ma te whenua pukepuke ki Peteere;

And the lot of the children of Joseph fell from Jordan by Jericho, unto the water of Jericho on the east, to the wilderness that goeth up from Jericho throughout mount Beth-el,

2 Na ka haere atu i Peteere ki Rutu, a tika tonu atu ki nga rohe o Araki ki Ataroto,

And goeth out from Beth-el to Luz, and passeth along unto the borders of Archi to Ataroth,

3 Na ka haere ki raro whaka te hauauru ki te rohe o Iapareti tae noa ki te rohe o Petehorono ki raro, ki Ketere: a ko tona putanga atu kei te moana.

And goeth down westward to the coast of Japhleti, unto the coast of Beth-horon the nether, and to Gezer: and the goings out thereof are at the sea.

4 Na ka riro i nga tama a Hohepa, i a Manahi raua ko Eparaima to ratou kainga tupu.

So the children of Joseph, Manasseh and Ephraim, took their inheritance.

5 A ko te rohe tenei ki nga tama a Eparaima, ki o ratou kainga whaka te rawhiti ko Ataroto Arara, tae noa ki Petehorono ki runga;

And the border of the children of Ephraim according to their families was [thus: ] even the border of their inheritance on the east side was Ataroth-addar, unto Beth-horon the upper;

6 A i puta atu te rohe whaka te hauauru ki Mikimeta ki te raki; a i awhio haere te rohe whaka te rawhiti ki Taanata Hiro, a ka whakarerea atu a reira i te taha ki te rawhiti o Ianoha;

And the border went out toward the sea to Michmethah on the north side; and the border went about eastward unto Taanath-shiloh, and passed by it on the east to Janohah;

7 Na ka anga i Ianoha ki raro ki Ataroto, a ki Naarata, a ka pa ki Heriko, puta rawa atu kei Horano.

And it went down from Janohah to Ataroth, and to Naarath, and came to Jericho, and went out at Jordan.

8 I haere atu te rohe i Tapua whaka te hauauru ki te awa ki Kanaha; a kei te moana ona putanga atu. Ko te wahi tupu tenei o te iwi o nga tama a Eparaima, o o ratou hapu:

The border went out from Tappuah westward unto the river Kanah; and the goings out thereof were at the sea. This [is] the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Ephraim by their families.

9 Me nga pa i motuhia mo nga tama a Eparaima i roto i te wahi o nga tama a Manahi, nga pa katoa me nga kainga o aua pa.

And the separate cities for the children of Ephraim [were] among the inheritance of the children of Manasseh, all the cities with their villages.

10 A kihai i peia e ratou te Kanaani e noho ana i Ketere: heoi noho ana te Kanaani i waenganui o Eparaima a taea noatia tenei ra, a ka meinga hei pononga, hei mahi i nga mahi.

And they drave not out the Canaanites that dwelt in Gezer: but the Canaanites dwell among the Ephraimites unto this day, and serve under tribute.
