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 for the sons of Joseph goes out from Jordan [by] Jericho, to the waters of Jericho on the east, to the wilderness going up from Jericho in the hill-country of Beth-El,
2 Na ka haere atu i Peteere ki Rutu, a tika tonu atu ki nga rohe o Araki ki Ataroto,
and has gone out from Beth-El to Luz, and passed over to the border 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 gone down westward to the border of Japhleti, to the border of the lower Beth-Horon, and to Gezer, and its outgoings have been at the sea.
4 Na ka riro i nga tama a Hohepa, i a Manahi raua ko Eparaima to ratou kainga tupu.
And the sons of Joseph—Manasseh and Ephraim—inherit.
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 sons of Ephraim is by their families; and the border of their inheritance is on the east, Atroth-Addar to the upper Beth-Horon;
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 has gone out at the sea, to Michmethah on the north, and the border has gone around eastward [to] Taanath-Shiloh, and passed over it eastward 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 gone down from Janohah [to] Ataroth, and to Naarath, and touched against Jericho, and gone out at the 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:
From Tappuah the border goes westward to the Brook of Kanah, and its outgoings have been at the sea: this [is] the inheritance of the tribe of the sons of Ephraim, for 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 of the sons of Ephraim [are] in the midst of the inheritance of the sons of Manasseh, all the cities and 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 have not dispossessed the Canaanite who is dwelling in Gezer, and the Canaanite dwells in the midst of Ephraim to this day, and is for forced labor—serving.
