Yashuuca 16
1 Oo reer Yuusuf qaybtoodiina wuxuu ka bilaabmay Webi Urdun oo Yerixoo ku ag yaal, biyaha Yerixoo dhankooda bari, taasoo ah xagga cidlada, iyo markii laga tago Yerixoo oo la dhex maro dalka buuraha leh ilaa Beytel,
The boundary for the allocation of the descendants of Joseph went from the Jordan near Jericho, then east of the springs of Jericho and through the wilderness from Jericho up into the hill country of Bethel.
2 oo wuxuu ka baxay Beytel ilaa Luus, oo wuxuu sii maray ilaa soohdinta reer Arkii iyo ilaa Cataarood;
From Bethel (or Luz) it continued to the border of Ataroth the Arkite.
3 oo wuxuu dhanka galbeed ka maray soohdinta reer Yaafleetii iyo ilaa soohdinta Beytxooroonta hoose iyo tan iyo xataa Geser; oo soohdinta dhammaadkeedu wuxuu ahaa xagga badda.
Then it descended west to the border of the Japhletites and the border of Lower Beth-horon, on up to Gezer, and then out to the sea.
4 Oo reer Yuusuf, oo ahaa reer Manaseh iyo reer Efrayim, dhaxalkoodii way qaateen.
This was the allocation received by the descendants of Joseph, Ephraim and Manasseh.
5 Oo reer Efrayim sidii ay reerahoodu ahaayeen soohdintoodii sidan bay ahayd; dalkii ay dhaxalka u heleen dhinaca bari waxaa u xigay Cataarood Addaar, iyo Beytxooroonta sare;
This was the territory allocated to the tribe of Ephraim, by families. The boundary of their allocation ran from Ataroth-addar in the east to Upper Beth-horon
6 oo soohdintu waxay galbeed ka mari jirtay Mikmetaah tan ku taal xagga woqooyi, oo soohdintu waxay ka soo wareegtay oo bari ka martay Ta'anad Shiloh, oo waxay bari ka martay Yaanooxaah;
and then on to the sea. From Michmethath in the north the boundary turned east passing Taanath-shiloh to the east of Janoah.
7 oo intay Yaanooxaah ka tagto ayay sii martay Cataarood, iyo ilaa Nacaraah, oo waxay gaadhay Yerixoo, markaasay ka sii baxday Webi Urdun.
From Janoah it went down to Ataroth and Naarah, then touched Jericho and ended at the Jordan.
8 Oo xagga Tafuu'axna soohdintu waxay galbeed ka sii martay durdurka reer Qaanaah; oo waxaa dhammaadkeedu ahaa xagga badda. Intaasu waa dhaxalkii reer Efrayim qabiilkoodii u heleen sidii reerahoodii ay ahaayeen,
From Tappuah the boundary ran west to the Brook of Kanah and then out to the sea. This was the land allotted to the tribe of Ephraim, by families.
9 iyo xataa kulli magaalooyinkii loo soocay reer Efrayim ee ku dhex yiil dhaxalkii reer Manaseh, kuwaas oo ahaa magaalooyinkii oo dhan iyo tuulooyinkoodii.
Also some towns with their associated villages that lay in the land allotted to the tribe of Manasseh were assigned to the tribe of Ephraim.
10 Oo ma ay eryin reer Kancaankii degganaa Geser; laakiinse reer Kancaan waxay dhex degganaayeen reer Efrayim ilaa maantadan la joogo, oo waxay u noqdeen addoommo u hawshooda.
However, they did not drive out the Canaanites living in Gezer, so the Canaanites live among the tribe of Ephraim to this very day, but as forced laborers.
