Yosua 16
1 Yosef asefoɔ no kyɛfa firi Asubɔnten Yordan fa a ɛbɛn Yeriko, wɔ Yeriko nsuwa no apueeɛ fam, kɔfa ɛserɛ no so kɔpue Bet-El bepɔ asase no so.
And the lot of the sons of Joseph fell from the Jordan over against Jericho and the waters thereof, on the east: the wilderness which goeth up from Jericho to the mountain of Bethel:
2 Ɛfiri Bet-El (a ɛyɛ Lus) a, ɛfa Atarot a ɛwɔ Arkifoɔ mantam mu.
And goeth out from Bethel to Luza: and passeth the border of Archi, to Ataroth,
3 Esiane fa atɔeɛ fam kɔsi Bet-Horon Anafoɔ a ɛwɔ Yafletifoɔ mantam mu. Ɛtoa so kɔ Geser na afei akɔsi Ɛpo Kɛseɛ no mu.
And goeth down westward, by the border of Jephleti, unto the borders of Beth-horon the nether, and to Gazer: and the countries of it are ended by the great sea:
4 Yosef mmammarima Manase ne Efraim mmusua nyaa wɔn agyapadeɛ.
And Manasses and Ephraim the children of Joseph possessed it.
5 Wɔde saa asase yi maa Efraim mmusua sɛ wɔn agyapadeɛ. Wɔn agyapadeɛ no ɛhyeɛ a ɛwɔ apueeɛ fam no firi Atarot-Adar. Ɛfiri hɔ kɔ Bet-Horon Soro,
And the border of the children of Ephraim was according to their kindreds: and their possession towards the east was Ataroth-addar unto Beth-horon the upper.
6 na akɔ Ɛpo Kɛseɛ no ho. Atifi fam ɛhyeɛ no firi Ɛpo Kɛseɛ no, ɛfa apueeɛ fam, twam wɔ Mikmetat, na akontono afa apueeɛ fam, atwam wɔ Taanat-Silo akɔ Yanoa apueeɛ fam.
And the confines go out unto the sea: but Machmethath looketh to the north, and it goeth round the borders eastward into Thanath-selo: and passeth along on the east side to Janoe.
7 Ɛfiri Yanoa a, ɛdane fa anafoɔ fam kɔ Atarot ne Naara, ɛka Yeriko, na akɔpem Asubɔnten Yordan.
And it goeth down from Janoe into Ataroth and Naaratha: and it cometh to Jericho, and goeth out to the Jordan.
8 Ɛfiri Tapua a, ɛhyeɛ no kɔ atɔeɛ fam, nam Kana Suka no mu kɔsi Ɛpo Kɛseɛ no. Saa agyapadeɛ yi na wɔde maa mmusua a wɔbɔ mu yɛ Efraim abusuakuo no.
From Taphua it passeth on towards the sea into the valley of reeds, and the goings out thereof are at the most salt sea. This is the possession of the tribe of the children of Ephraim by their families.
9 Wɔde nkuro bi ne wɔn nkuraaseɛ a ɛwɔ Manase abusuakuo no fa mantam mu maa Efraim.
And there were cities with their villages separated for the children of Ephraim in the midst of the possession of the children of Manasses.
10 Wɔampamo Kanaanfoɔ no amfiri Geser, enti Geserfoɔ te hɔ sɛ nkoa bɛsi ɛnnɛ.
And the children of Ephraim slew not the Chanaanite, who dwelt in Gazer: and the Chanaanite dwelt in the midst of Ephraim until this day, paying tribute.
