Laba ngabantwana besilisa bakaManase indodana kaJosefa ngokwensendo zabo.

3 Kodwa uZelofehadi indodana kaHeferi indodana kaGileyadi indodana kaMakiri indodana kaManase wayengelamadodana, kodwa amadodakazi. Lala ngamabizo amadodakazi akhe: OMahla loNowa, uHogila, uMilka loTiriza.

4 Asesondela phambi kukaEleyazare umpristi laphambi kukaJoshuwa indodana kaNuni laphambi kweziphathamandla, esithi: INkosi yalaya uMozisi ukusinika ilifa phakathi kwabafowethu. Ngakho wawanika ngokomlayo weNkosi ilifa phakathi kwabafowabo bakayise.

5 Ngakho kwawela inkatho ezilitshumi kuManase, ngaphandle kwelizwe leGileyadi leBashani, elingaphetsheya kweJordani.

and to fall: kill cord Manasseh ten to/for alone: besides from land: country/planet [the] Gilead and [the] Bashan which from side: beside to/for Jordan

6 Ngoba amadodakazi kaManase adla ilifa phakathi kwamadodana akhe. Lelizwe leGileyadi laba ngelabaseleyo bamadodana akoManase.

7 Umngcele wakoManase wasusukela eAsheri usiya eMikimethathi ephambi kweShekema; lomngcele waya ngakwesokunene kubahlali beEni-Tapuwa.

and to be border: area Manasseh from Asher [the] Michmethath which upon face: surface Shechem and to go: went [the] border: boundary to(wards) [the] right: south to(wards) to dwell En-tappuah En-tappuah

8 UManase waba lelizwe leTapuwa, kodwa iTapuwa emngceleni kaManase yayingeyabantwana bakoEfrayimi.

to/for Manasseh to be land: country/planet Tappuah and Tappuah to(wards) border: boundary Manasseh to/for son: descendant/people Ephraim

9 Lomngcele wehlela esifuleni iKana eningizimu kwesifula. Imizi le ngeyakoEfrayimi phakathi kwemizi yakoManase. Lomngcele wakoManase usenyakatho kwesifula, lokuphuma kwawo kuselwandle.

and to go down [the] border: boundary torrent: river Kanah south [to] to/for torrent: river city [the] these to/for Ephraim in/on/with midst city Manasseh and border: boundary Manasseh from north to/for torrent: river and to be outgoing his [the] sea [to]

10 Eningizimu lalingelakoEfrayimi, lenyakatho lalingelakoManase, lolwandle lungumngcele wakhe. LeAsheri bahlangana enyakatho, leIsakari empumalanga.

south [to] to/for Ephraim and north [to] to/for Manasseh and to be [the] sea border: boundary his and in/on/with Asher to fall on [emph?] from north and in/on/with Issachar from east

11 Ngoba koIsakari loAsheri uManase wayeleBeti-Sheyani lemizana yayo, leIbileyamu lemizana yayo, labahlali beDori lemizana yayo, labahlali beEni-Dori lemizana yayo, labahlali beThahanakhi lemizana yayo, labahlali beMegido lemizana yayo: Amadundulu amathathu.

12 Kodwa abantwana bakoManase babengelakho ukuxotsha elifeni leyomizi, kodwa amaKhanani ayefuna ukuhlala kulelolizwe.

and not be able son: descendant/people Manasseh to/for to possess: take [obj] [the] city [the] these and be willing [the] Canaanite to/for to dwell in/on/with land: country/planet [the] this

13 Kodwa kwathi lapho abantwana bakoIsrayeli sebelamandla bawasebenzisa amaKhanani njengezibhalwa, kodwa kabawaxotshanga lokuwaxotsha elifeni.

and to be for to strengthen: strengthen son: descendant/people Israel and to give: put [obj] [the] Canaanite to/for taskworker and to possess: take not to possess: take him

14 Abantwana bakoJosefa basebekhuluma kuJoshuwa besithi: Unginikeleni inkatho eyodwa lesabelo esisodwa ukuba yilifa, kube kanti ngiyisizwe esikhulu, njengoba iNkosi ingibusisile kuze kube lapha?

and to speak: speak son: descendant/people Joseph with Joshua to/for to say why? to give: give to/for me inheritance allotted one and cord one and I people many till which till thus to bless me LORD

15 UJoshuwa wasesithi kubo: Uba uyisizwe esikhulu, wena yenyukela eguswini, uzicentele khona elizweni lamaPerizi leleziqhwaga, nxa intaba yakoEfrayimi iminyene kuwe.

and to say to(wards) them Joshua if people many you(m. s.) to ascend: rise to/for you [the] wood [to] and to create to/for you there in/on/with land: country/planet [the] Perizzite and [the] Rephaim for to hasten to/for you mountain: hill country Ephraim

16 Abantwana bakoJosefa basebesithi: Intaba kayisanelanga, njalo kulenqola zensimbi lamaKhanani wonke ahlala elizweni lesihotsha, lawaseBeti-Sheyani lemizana yayo, lawasesigodini seJizereyeli.

and to say son: descendant/people Joseph not to find to/for us [the] mountain: hill country and chariot iron in/on/with all [the] Canaanite [the] to dwell in/on/with land: country/planet [the] Valley (of Jezreel) to/for which in/on/with Beth-shean Beth-shean and daughter: village her and to/for which in/on/with Valley (of Jezreel) (Valley of) Jezreel

17 UJoshuwa wasekhuluma kundlu kaJosefa, kuEfrayimi lakuManase esithi: Uyisizwe esikhulu, futhi ulamandla amakhulu; kawuyikuba lenkatho eyodwa,

and to say Joshua to(wards) house: household Joseph to/for Ephraim and to/for Manasseh to/for to say people many you(m. s.) and strength great: large to/for you not to be to/for you allotted one

18 kodwa intaba izakuba ngeyakho; ngoba iligusu, uzalicenta, lokuphuma kwalo kube ngokwakho, ngoba uzawaxotsha elifeni amaKhanani, lanxa elenqola zensimbi, lanxa elamandla.
