Joshua 17
1 Èyí ní ìpín ẹ̀yà Manase tí í ṣe àkọ́bí Josẹfu, fún Makiri, àkọ́bí Manase. Makiri sì ni baba ńlá àwọn ọmọ Gileadi, tí ó ti gba Gileadi àti Baṣani nítorí pé àwọn ọmọ Makiri jẹ́ jagunjagun ńlá.
This was the lot for the tribe of Manasseh, for he was the firstborn of Joseph. As for Machir the firstborn of Manasseh, the father of Gilead, because he was a man of war, therefore he had Gilead and Bashan.
2 Nítorí náà ìpín yìí wà fún ìyókù àwọn ènìyàn Manase: ní agbo ilé Abieseri, Heleki, Asrieli, Ṣekemu, Heferi àti Ṣemida. Ìwọ̀nyí ní àwọn ọmọ ọkùnrin Manase ọmọ Josẹfu ní agbo ilé wọn.
So this was for the rest of the children of Manasseh according to their families: for the children of Abiezer, for the children of Helek, for the children of Asriel, for the children of Shechem, for the children of Hepher, and for the children of Shemida. These were the male children of Manasseh the son of Joseph according to their families.
3 Nísinsin yìí Selofehadi ọmọ Heferi, ọmọ Gileadi, ọmọ Makiri, ọmọ Manase, kò ní ọmọkùnrin, bí kò ṣe àwọn ọmọbìnrin, tí orúkọ wọn jẹ́: Mahila, Noa, Hogla, Milka àti Tirsa.
But Zelophehad, the son of Hepher, the son of Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh, had no sons, but daughters. These are the names of his daughters: Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah.
4 Wọ́n sì lọ bá Eleasari àlùfáà, Joṣua ọmọ Nuni, àti àwọn olórí wí pé, “Olúwa pàṣẹ fún Mose láti fún wa ní ìní ní àárín àwọn arákùnrin wa.” Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Joṣua fún wọn ní ìní pẹ̀lú àwọn arákùnrin baba wọn, gẹ́gẹ́ bí àṣẹ Olúwa.
They came to Eleazar the priest, and to Joshua the son of Nun, and to the princes, saying, “Yahweh commanded Moses to give us an inheritance among our brothers.” Therefore according to the commandment of Yahweh he gave them an inheritance among the brothers of their father.
5 Ìpín ilẹ̀ Manase sì jẹ́ ìsọ̀rí mẹ́wàá ní ẹ̀bá Gileadi àti Baṣani ìlà-oòrùn Jordani,
Ten parts fell to Manasseh, in addition to the land of Gilead and Bashan, which is beyond the Jordan;
6 nítorí tí àwọn ọmọbìnrin ẹ̀yà Manase gba ìní ní àárín àwọn ọmọkùnrin. Ilẹ̀ Gileadi sì jẹ́ ti ìyókù àwọn ọmọ Manase.
because the daughters of Manasseh had an inheritance among his sons. The land of Gilead belonged to the rest of the sons of Manasseh.
7 Agbègbè Manase sì fẹ̀ láti Aṣeri títí dé Mikmeta ní ìlà-oòrùn Ṣekemu. Ààlà rẹ̀ sì lọ sí ìhà gúúsù títí tó fi dé ibi tí àwọn ènìyàn ń gbé ní Tapua,
The border of Manasseh was from Asher to Michmethath, which is before Shechem. The border went along to the right hand, to the inhabitants of En Tappuah.
8 (Manase lo ni ilẹ̀ Tapua, ṣùgbọ́n Tapua fúnra rẹ̀ to wà ni ààlà ilẹ̀ Manase jẹ ti àwọn ará Efraimu.)
The land of Tappuah belonged to Manasseh; but Tappuah on the border of Manasseh belonged to the children of Ephraim.
9 Ààlà rẹ̀ sì sọ̀kalẹ̀ lọ odò Kana, ní ìhà gúúsù odò náà. Àwọn ìlú tí ó jẹ́ ti Efraimu wà ní àárín àwọn ìlú Manase, ṣùgbọ́n ààlà Manase ni ìhà àríwá odò náà, ó sì yọ sí Òkun.
The border went down to the brook of Kanah, southward of the brook. These cities belonged to Ephraim among the cities of Manasseh. The border of Manasseh was on the north side of the brook, and ended at the sea.
10 Ìhà gúúsù ilẹ̀ náà jẹ́ ti Efraimu, ṣùgbọ́n ìhà àríwá jẹ́ ti Manase. Ilẹ̀ Manase dé Òkun, Aṣeri sì jẹ́ ààlà rẹ̀ ní àríwá, nígbà tí Isakari jẹ́ ààlà ti ìlà-oòrùn.
Southward it was Ephraim’s, and northward it was Manasseh’s, and the sea was his border. They reached to Asher on the north, and to Issachar on the east.
11 Ní àárín Isakari àti Aṣeri, Manase tún ni Beti-Ṣeani, Ibleamu àti àwọn ènìyàn Dori, Endori, Taanaki àti Megido pẹ̀lú àwọn abúlé tí ó yí wọn ká (ẹ̀kẹ́ta nínú orúkọ wọn ní Nafoti).
Manasseh had three heights in Issachar, in Asher Beth Shean and its towns, and Ibleam and its towns, and the inhabitants of Dor and its towns, and the inhabitants of Endor and its towns, and the inhabitants of Taanach and its towns, and the inhabitants of Megiddo and its towns.
12 Síbẹ̀, àwọn ọmọ Manase kò lè gba àwọn ìlú wọ̀nyí, nítorí àwọn ará Kenaani ti pinnu láti gbé ní ilẹ̀ náà.
Yet the children of Manasseh couldn’t drive out the inhabitants of those cities; but the Canaanites would dwell in that land.
13 Ṣùgbọ́n nígbà tí àwọn ará Israẹli di alágbára, wọ́n mú àwọn ọmọ Kenaani sìn, ṣùgbọ́n wọn kò lé wọn jáde pátápátá.
When the children of Israel had grown strong, they put the Canaanites to forced labor, and didn’t utterly drive them out.
14 Àwọn ọmọ Josẹfu sì wí fún Joṣua pé, “Èéṣe tí ìwọ fi fún wa ní ìpín ilẹ̀ kan àti ìdákan ní ìní? Nítorí àwa jẹ́ ọ̀pọ̀ ènìyàn tí Olúwa ti bùkún lọ́pọ̀lọ́pọ̀.”
The children of Joseph spoke to Joshua, saying, “Why have you given me just one lot and one part for an inheritance, since we are a numerous people, because Yahweh has blessed us so far?”
15 Joṣua dá wọn lóhùn pé, “Bí ẹ bá pọ̀ bẹ́ẹ̀, tí òkè ìlú Efraimu bá kéré fún yin, ẹ gòkè lọ sí igbó kí ẹ sì ṣán ilẹ̀ òkè fún ara yín ní ibẹ̀ ní ilẹ̀ àwọn ará Peresi àti ará Refaimu.”
Joshua said to them, “If you are a numerous people, go up to the forest, and clear land for yourself there in the land of the Perizzites and of the Rephaim, since the hill country of Ephraim is too narrow for you.”
16 Àwọn ènìyàn Josẹfu dáhùn pé, “Òkè kò tó fún wa, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni gbogbo àwọn ará Kenaani tí ó gbé ní pẹ̀tẹ́lẹ̀, àti gbogbo àwọn tí ń bẹ ní Beti-Ṣeani àti àwọn ìletò àti àwọn tí ń gbé ní àfonífojì Jesreeli ní kẹ̀kẹ́ ogun onírin.”
The children of Joseph said, “The hill country is not enough for us. All the Canaanites who dwell in the land of the valley have chariots of iron, both those who are in Beth Shean and its towns, and those who are in the valley of Jezreel.”
17 Ṣùgbọ́n Joṣua sọ fún àwọn ilé Josẹfu: fún Efraimu àti Manase pé, “Lóòtítọ́ ni ẹ pọ̀ lọ́pọ̀lọ́pọ̀, ẹ sì jẹ́ alágbára. Ẹ̀yin kí yóò sì ní ìpín kan ṣoṣo.
Joshua spoke to the house of Joseph, that is, to Ephraim and to Manasseh, saying, “You are a numerous people, and have great power. You shall not have one lot only;
18 Ṣùgbọ́n ilẹ̀ orí òkè igbó jẹ́ tiyín pẹ̀lú. Ẹ ṣán ilẹ̀ náà, òpin rẹ̀ yóò jẹ́ tiyín pátápátá. Bí ó tilẹ̀ jẹ́ pé àwọn ará Kenaani ní kẹ̀kẹ́ ogun irin, tí ó sì jẹ́ pé wọ́n ní agbára, síbẹ̀ ẹ lè lé wọn jáde.”
but the hill country shall be yours. Although it is a forest, you shall cut it down, and it’s farthest extent shall be yours; for you shall drive out the Canaanites, though they have chariots of iron, and though they are strong.”
