1 Yosef asefo no kyɛfa fi Asubɔnten Yordan fa a ɛbɛn Yeriko, wɔ Yeriko nsuwa no apuei fam, kɔfa sare no so kopue Bet-El bepɔw asase no so.
And the lot of the children of Joseph fell from the Jordan by Jericho, unto the waters of Jericho on the east, to the wilderness that goeth up from Jericho by the mount Beth-el,
2 Efi Bet-El, a ɛyɛ Lus, a ɛfa Atarot a ɛwɔ Arkifo mantam mu.
And [the boundary] went out from Beth-el to Luz, and passed along unto the boundary of the Arkites to 'Ataroth,
3 Esian fa atɔe fam kosi Bet-Horon Anafo a ɛwɔ Yafletifo mantam mu. Ɛtoa so kɔ Geser na afei akosi Po Kɛse no mu.
And went down westward to the boundary of the Yaphleti, unto the border of Beth-choron the lower, and to Gezer; and its terminations were toward the sea.
4 Yosef mmabarima Manase ne Efraim mmusua nyaa wɔn agyapade.
This did the children of Joseph, Menasseh and Ephraim, take as their inheritance.
5 Wɔde saa asase yi maa Efraim mmusua sɛ wɔn agyapade. Wɔn agyapade no hye a ɛwɔ apuei fam no fi Atarot-Adar. Efi hɔ kɔ Bet-Horon Soro,
And [this] was the boundary of the children of Ephraim according to their families; and the boundary of their inheritance on the east side was 'Atroth-addar, up to Beth-choron the upper;
6 na akɔ Po Kɛse no ho. Atifi fam hye no fi Po Kɛse no, ɛfa apuei fam, twa mu wɔ Mikmetat, na akɔntɔn afa apuei fam, atwa mu wɔ Taanat-Silo akɔ Yanoa apuei fam.
And the boundary went out toward the sea to Michmethath on the north; and the boundary fetched a compass eastward unto Taanathshiloh, and passed by it on the east to Yanochah;
7 Efi Yanoa a, ɛdan fa anafo fam kɔ Atarot ne Naara, ɛka Yeriko, na akɔpem Asubɔnten Yordan.
And it went down from Yanochah to 'Ataroth, and to Na'arath, and touched on Jericho, and went out at the Jordan.
8 Efi Tapua a, ɔhye no kɔ atɔe fam, nam Kana Suka no mu kosi Po Kɛse no. Saa agyapade yi na wɔde maa mmusua a wɔbɔ mu yɛ Efraim abusuakuw no.
From Tappuach westward the border went out unto the brook Kanah; and its terminations were toward the sea. This is the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Ephraim after their families;
9 Wɔde nkurow bi ne wɔn nkuraase a ɛwɔ Manase abusuakuw no fa mantam mu maa Efraim.
And [in addition to this] the cities which were separated for the children of Ephraim in the midst of the inheritance of the children of Menasseh, all the cities with their villages.
10 Wɔampam Kanaanfo no amfi Geser, enti Geserfo te hɔ sɛ nkoa de besi nnɛ.
And they drove not out the Canaanites that dwelt in Gezer; but the Canaanites dwelt among the Ephraimites until this day, and became tributary servants.
