UJoshuwa 16

1 Kwasekuphuma inkatho yabantwana bakoJosefa kusukela eJordani eJeriko, kusiya emanzini eJeriko ngempumalanga, inkangala isenyuka isuka eJeriko entabeni yeBhetheli;

And the lot, `ethir part, of the sones of Joseph felde fro Jordan ayens Jerico, and at the watris therof, fro the eest; is the wildirnesse, that stieth fro Jerico to the hil of Bethel,

2 yasiphuma eBhetheli isiya eLuzi, yadlulela emngceleni wamaAriki eAtarothi,

and it goith out fro Bethel `in to Luzan, and passith the terme of Architaroth,

3 yehlela entshonalanga emngceleni wamaJafilethi, isiya emngceleni weBhethi-Horoni ngaphansi, kwaze kwaba seGezeri; lokuphuma kwayo kwakuselwandle.

and it goith doun to the west, bisidis the terme of Jefleti, `til to the termes of the lowere Bethoron, and of Gazer; and the cuntrees therof ben endid with the greet see,

4 Ngakho abantwana bakoJosefa, uManase loEfrayimi, balidla ilifa.

whiche cuntreis Manasses and Effraym, the sones of Joseph, weldiden.

5 Lomngcele wabantwana bakoEfrayimi ngokwensendo zabo wawunje: Ngitsho umngcele welifa labo empumalanga wawuyiAtarothi-Adari kuze kufike eBhethi-Horoni ngaphezulu.

And the terme of the sones of Effraym, bi her meynees, and `the possessioun of hem was maad ayens the eest, Accarothaddar `til to the hiyere Bethoron.

6 Umngcele wasuphumela elwandle, eMikimethathi enyakatho; lomngcele waphendukela empumalanga eTanathi-Shilo, wedlula empumalanga usiya eJanowa;

And the coostis goon out in to the see; sotheli Mathmetath biholdith the north, and cumpassith the termes ayens the eest in Tharnarselo,

7 wasusehla usuka eJanowa usiya eAtarothi leNahara, wagudla iJeriko, waphumela eJordani.

and passith fro the stronde of Janee; and it goith doun fro Janee in to Atharoth and Noathara, and cometh in to Jerico; and it goith out to Jordan fro Taphua,

8 Kusukela eTapuwa umngcele waya entshonalanga esifuleni iKana, lokuphuma kwawo kwaba selwandle. Leli yilifa lesizwe sabantwana bakoEfrayimi ngokwensendo zabo.

and passith ayens the see in to the valey of `the place of rehedis; and the goyngis out therof ben to the salteste see. This is the possessioun of the sones of Effraym, bi her meynees;

9 Lemizi eyayehlukaniselwe abantwana bakoEfrayimi yayiphakathi kwelifa labantwana bakoManase, yonke imizi lemizana yayo.

and citees and the townes of tho ben departid to the sones of Effraym, in the myddis of the possessioun of the sones of Manasses.

10 Kodwa kabawaxotshanga elifeni amaKhanani ayehlala eGezeri. Ngakho amaKhanani ahlala phakathi kwabakoEfrayimi kuze kube lamuhla, ayesebenza njengezibhalwa.

And the sones of Effraym killiden not Cananey, that dwellide in Gazer; and Cananey dwellide tributarie in the myddis of Effraym til in to this day.
