Josué 17

1 Tambem caiu a sorte á tribu de Manasseh, porquanto era o primogenito de José, a saber: Machir, o primogenito de Manasseh, pae de Gilead, porquanto era homem de guerra, teve a Gilead e Basan.

This was the assignment of land for the tribe of Manasseh (who was the firstborn of Joseph)—that is, for Makir, who was Manasseh's firstborn and who himself was the father of Gilead. Makir's descendants were assigned the land of Gilead and Bashan, because Makir had been a man of war.

2 Tambem os mais filhos de Manasseh tiveram sorte, segundo as suas familias, a saber: os filhos d'Abiezer, e os filhos de Helek, e os filhos d'Asriel, e os filhos de Sechem, e os filhos de Hepher, e os filhos de Semida: estes são os filhos machos de Manasseh, filho de José, segundo as suas familias.

Land was assigned to the rest of the tribe of Manasseh, given to their clans—Abiezer, Helek, Asriel, Shechem, Hepher, and Shemida. These were the male descendants of Manasseh son of Joseph, presented by their clans.

3 Selofad, porém, filho d'Hepher, o filho de Gilead, filho de Machir, o filho de Manasseh, não teve filhos, mas só filhas: e estes são os nomes de suas filhas: Machla, Noa, Hogla, Milka e Tirsa.

Now Zelophehad son of Hepher son of Gilead son of Makir son of Manasseh had no sons, but only daughters. The names of his daughters were Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milkah, and Tirzah.

4 Estas, pois, chegaram diante d'Eleazar, o sacerdote, e diante de Josué, filho de Nun, e diante dos principes, dizendo: O Senhor ordenou a Moysés que se nos désse herança no meio de nossos irmãos: pelo que, conforme ao dito do Senhor, lhes deu herança no meio dos irmãos de seu pae.

They approached Eleazar the priest, Joshua son of Nun, and the leaders, and they said, “Yahweh commanded Moses to give to us an inheritance along with our brothers.” So, following the commandment of Yahweh, he gave those women an inheritance among the brothers of their father.

5 E cairam a Manasseh dez quinhões, afóra a terra de Gilead, e Basan que está d'além do Jordão:

Ten parcels of land were assigned to Manasseh in Gilead and Bashan, which is on the other side of the Jordan,

6 Porque as filhas de Manasseh no meio de seus filhos possuiram herança: e a terra de Gilead tiveram os outros filhos de Manasseh.

because the daughters of Manasseh received an inheritance along with his sons. The land of Gilead was assigned to the rest of the tribe of Manasseh.

7 E o termo de Manasseh foi desde Aser até Mikmetath, que está diante de Sechem: e vae este termo á mão direita, até aos moradores d'En-tappuah.

The territory of Manasseh reached from Asher to Mikmethath, which is east of Shechem. Then the border went southward to those living near the spring of Tappuah.

8 Tinha Manasseh a terra de Tappuah: porém a Tappuah, no termo de Manasseh, tinham os filhos d'Ephraim.

(The land of Tappuah belonged to Manasseh, but the town of Tappuah on the border of Manasseh belonged to the tribe of Ephraim.)

9 Então desce este termo ao ribeiro de Cana, para o sul do ribeiro: d'Ephraim são estas cidades no meio das cidades de Manasseh: e o termo de Manasseh está ao norte do ribeiro, sendo as suas saidas no mar.

The border went down to the brook of Kanah. These cities south of the brook among the towns of Manasseh belonged to Ephraim. The border of Manasseh was on the north side of the brook, and it ended at the sea.

10 Ephraim ao sul, e Manasseh ao norte, e o mar é o seu termo: pelo norte tocam em Aser, e pelo oriente em Issacar.

The land to the south belonged to Ephraim, and the land to the north was Manasseh's; the sea was the border. On the north side Asher can be reached, and to the east, Issachar.

11 Porque em Issacar e em Aser tinha Manasseh a Beth-sean e os logares da sua jurisdicção, e Ibleam e os logares da sua jurisdicção, e os habitantes de Dor e os logares da sua jurisdicção, e os habitantes d'En-dor e os logares da sua jurisdicção, e os habitantes de Thaanak e os logares da sua jurisdicção, e os habitantes de Megiddo e os logares da sua jurisdicção: tres comarcas.

Also in Issachar and in Asher, Manasseh possessed Beth Shan and its villages, Ibleam and its villages, the inhabitants of Dor and its villages, the inhabitants of Endor and its villages, the inhabitants of Taanach and its villages, and the inhabitants of Megiddo and its villages (and the third city is Napheth).

12 E os filhos de Manasseh não poderam expellir os habitantes d'aquellas cidades: porquanto os cananeos queriam habitar na mesma terra.

Yet the tribe of Manasseh could not take possession of those cities, for the Canaanites continued to live in this land.

13 E succedeu que, engrossando em forças os filhos de Israel, fizeram tributarios aos cananeos; porém não os expelliram de todo.

When the people of Israel grew strong, they put the Canaanites to forced labor, but did not completely drive them out.

14 Então os filhos de José fallaram a Josué, dizendo: Porque me déste por herança só uma sorte e um quinhão, sendo eu um tão grande povo, visto que o Senhor até aqui me tem abençoado?

Then the descendants of Joseph said to Joshua, saying, “Why have you given us only one assignment of land and one portion for an inheritance, since we are a people great in number, and all along Yahweh has blessed us?”

15 E disse-lhes Josué: Se tão grande povo és, sobe ao bosque, e corta para ti ali logar na terra dos phereseos e dos rephains: pois que as montanhas de Ephraim te são tão estreitas.

Joshua said to them, “If you are a people great in number, go up by yourselves to the forest and there clear the ground for yourselves in the land of the Perizzites and of the Rephaim. Do this, since the hill country of Ephraim is too small for you.”

16 Então disseram os filhos de José: As montanhas nos não bastariam: tambem carros ferrados ha entre todos os cananeos que habitam na terra do valle, entre os de Beth-sean e os logares da sua jurisdicção, e entre os que estão no valle de Jezreel.

The descendants of Joseph said, “The hill country is not enough for us. But all the Canaanites who live in the valley have chariots of iron, both those who are in Beth Shan and its villages, and those who are in the Valley of Jezreel.”

17 Então Josué fallou á casa de José, a Ephraim e a Manasseh, dizendo: Grande povo és, e grande força tens; uma só sorte não terás;

Then Joshua said to the house of Joseph—to Ephraim and Manasseh, “You are a people great in number, and you have great power. You must not have only one piece of land assigned to you.

18 Porém as montanhas serão tuas: e, pois que bosque é, corta-o, e as suas saidas serão tuas: porque expellirás os cananeos, ainda que tenham carros ferrados, ainda que sejam fortes.

The hill country will also be yours. Though it is a forest, you will clear it and take possession of it to its farthest borders. You will drive out the Canaanites, even though they have chariots of iron, and even though they are strong.”
