Hohua 17
1 A ko te rota tenei i te iwi o Manahi; ko ia hoki te matamua a Hohepa. I a Makiri, i te matamua a Manahi, matua o Kireara, i te mea he tangata hapai pakanga ia, i a ia a Kireara, a Pahana.
There was also a lot for the tribe of Manasseh; for he [was] the firstborn of Joseph; [to wit], for Machir the firstborn of Manasseh, the father of Gilead: because he was a man of war, therefore he had Gilead and Bashan.
2 A ko te rota i era atu tama a Manahi, i o ratou hapu; i nga tama a Apietere, i nga tama a Hereke, i nga tama a Ahariere, i nga tama a Hekeme, i nga tama a Hewhere, i nga tama hoki a Hemira: ko nga tama enei a Manahi tama a Hohepa, i o ratou hapu.
There was also [a lot] for the rest of the children of Manasseh by their families; for the children of Abiezer, and for the children of Helek, and for the children of Asriel, and for the children of Shechem, and for the children of Hepher, and for the children of Shemida: these [were] the male children of Manasseh the son of Joseph by their families. (Abiezer: also called, Jeezer)
3 Otiia kahore he tama a Teropehara, tama a Hewhere, tama a Kireara, tama a Makiri, tama a Manahi; engari he tamahine: a ko nga ingoa enei o ana tamahine, ko Mahara, ko Noa, ko Hokora, ko Mireka, ko Tirita.
But Zelophehad, the son of Hepher, the son of Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh, had no sons, but daughters: and these [are] the names of his daughters, Mahlah, and Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah.
4 Na ka whakatata ratou ki te aroaro o Ereatara tohunga, ki te aroaro o Hohua tama a Nunu, ki te aroaro ano hoki o nga ariki, a ka mea, I whakahau a Ihowa i a Mohi kia homai he kainga tupu ki a matou i roto i o matou tungane. Na homai ana e ia ki a ratou ta Ihowa i ki ai, he kainga tupu i roto i nga teina o to ratou papa.
And they came near before Eleazar the priest, and before Joshua the son of Nun, and before the princes, saying, YHWH commanded Moses to give us an inheritance among our brethren. Therefore according to the commandment of YHWH he gave them an inheritance among the brethren of their father.
5 A tekau nga wahi i taka ki a Manahi, haunga te whenua o Kireara, o Pahana, i tawahi o Horano;
And there fell ten portions to Manasseh, beside the land of Gilead and Bashan, which [were] on the other side Jordan;
6 No te mea i whiwhi nga tamahine a Manahi i te wahi tupu i roto i ana tama; a i riro te whenua o Kireara i nga tama a Manahi i mahue.
Because the daughters of Manasseh had an inheritance among his sons: and the rest of Manasseh's sons had the land of Gilead.
7 A ko te rohe ki a Manahi kei a Ahera a tae noa ki Mikimeta, ki tera i te ritenga atu o Hekeme; a i haere tonu te rohe ki matau, ki nga tangata o Enetapua.
And the coast of Manasseh was from Asher to Michmethah, that [lieth] before Shechem; and the border went along on the right hand unto the inhabitants of Entappuah.
8 I a Manahi te whenua o Tapua: ko Tapua ia i te rohe o Manahi, i nga tama a Eparaima tera.
[Now] Manasseh had the land of Tappuah: but Tappuah on the border of Manasseh [belonged] to the children of Ephraim;
9 A i puta atu te rohe ki te awa, ki Kana, whaka te tonga o te awa: ko enei pa no Eparaima i roto i nga pa o Manahi: a ko te rohe o Manahi i te taha tuaraki o te awa, a ko ona putanga kei te moana:
And the coast descended unto the river Kanah, southward of the river: these cities of Ephraim [are] among the cities of Manasseh: the coast of Manasseh also [was] on the north side of the river, and the outgoings of it were at the sea: (river Kanah: or, brook of reeds)
10 I a Eparaima te taha ki te tonga, a i a Manahi te taha ki te raki, a ko te moana te rohe ki a ia; a i tutaki raua ki a Ahera ki te raki, ki a Ihakara hoki ki te rawhiti.
Southward [it was] Ephraim's, and northward [it was] Manasseh's, and the sea is his border; and they met together in Asher on the north, and in Issachar on the east.
11 A i riro i a Manahi i roto i to Ihakara, i to Ahera, a Peteheana me ona pa ririki, a Ipireama me ona pa ririki, nga tangata o Roro, o ona pa ririki, nga tangata o Eneroro, o ona pa ririki, nga tangata o Taanaka, o ona pa ririki, nga tangata ano hoki o Mekiro, o ona pa ririki, ara e toru nga taumata.
And Manasseh had in Issachar and in Asher Bethshean and her towns, and Ibleam and her towns, and the inhabitants of Dor and her towns, and the inhabitants of Endor and her towns, and the inhabitants of Taanach and her towns, and the inhabitants of Megiddo and her towns, [even] three countries.
12 Otiia kihai i taea e nga tama a Manahi te pei nga tangata o aua pa; ko nga Kanaani ia i whakamate kia noho tonu i taua whenua.
Yet the children of Manasseh could not drive out [the inhabitants of] those cities; but the Canaanites would dwell in that land.
13 Na, no ka kaha nga tama a Iharaira, ka meinga e ratou nga Kanaani hei kaimahi, a kahore i peia rawatia atu e ratou.
Yet it came to pass, when the children of Israel were waxen strong, that they put the Canaanites to tribute; but did not utterly drive them out.
14 Na ka korero nga tama a Hohepa ki a Hohua, ka mea, Na te aha i kotahi tonu ai te rota, i kotahi ai te wahi i homai e koe ki ahau hei kainga tupu, he iwi nui nei hoki ahau, a he manaakitanga hoki ahau na Ihowa a mohoa noa nei?
And the children of Joseph spake unto Joshua, saying, Why hast thou given me [but] one lot and one portion to inherit, seeing I [am] a great people, forasmuch as YHWH hath blessed me hitherto?
15 Na ka mea a Hohua ki a ratou, Ki te mea he iwi nui koe, haere ki te ngahere tua ai he wahi mau i reira, i te whenua o nga Perihi ratou ko nga Repaima; ina hoki he kuiti rawa te whenua pukepuke o Eparaima mou.
And Joshua answered them, If thou [be] a great people, [then] get thee up to the wood [country], and cut down for thyself there in the land of the Perizzites and of the giants, if mount Ephraim be too narrow for thee. (giants: or, Rephaims)
16 Na ka mea nga tama a Hohepa, He iti rawa te whenua pukepuke mo matou: a ko nga Kanaani katoa e noho ana i te wahi mania he hariata o ratou, o era e noho ra i Peteheana, i ona pa ririki, o era hoki i te mania i Ietereere.
And the children of Joseph said, The hill is not enough for us: and all the Canaanites that dwell in the land of the valley have chariots of iron, [both they] who [are] of Bethshean and her towns, and [they] who [are] of the valley of Jezreel.
17 Na ka korero a Hohua ki te whare o Hohepa, ki a Eparaima raua ko Manahi, ka mea, He iwi nui koe, he nui hoki tou kaha: e kore e kotahi tonu te rota mou:
And Joshua spake unto the house of Joseph, [even] to Ephraim and to Manasseh, saying, Thou [art] a great people, and hast great power: thou shalt not have one lot [only]:
18 Engari mou ano te whenua pukepuke; ahakoa hoki he ngahere ia, mau e tua, a mou ona putanga atu; ka peia atu hoki e koe nga Kanaani, he ahakoa to ratou whai hariata rino, me to ratou kaha.
But the mountain shall be thine; for it [is] a wood, and thou shalt cut it down: and the outgoings of it shall be thine: for thou shalt drive out the Canaanites, though they have iron chariots, [and] though they [be] strong.
