Allotment for Ephraim and Manasseh
16 The allotment for Joseph began at the Jordan, east of the springs of Jericho, and went up from there through the desert(A) into the hill country of Bethel.(B) 2 It went on from Bethel (that is, Luz(C)),[a] crossed over to the territory of the Arkites(D) in Ataroth,(E) 3 descended westward to the territory of the Japhletites as far as the region of Lower Beth Horon(F) and on to Gezer,(G) ending at the Mediterranean Sea.
4 So Manasseh and Ephraim, the descendants of Joseph, received their inheritance.(H)
5 This was the territory of Ephraim, according to its clans:
The boundary of their inheritance went from Ataroth Addar(I) in the east to Upper Beth Horon(J) 6 and continued to the Mediterranean Sea. From Mikmethath(K) on the north it curved eastward to Taanath Shiloh, passing by it to Janoah(L) on the east. 7 Then it went down from Janoah(M) to Ataroth(N) and Naarah, touched Jericho and came out at the Jordan. 8 From Tappuah(O) the border went west to the Kanah Ravine(P) and ended at the Mediterranean Sea. This was the inheritance of the tribe of the Ephraimites, according to its clans. 9 It also included all the towns and their villages that were set aside for the Ephraimites within the inheritance of the Manassites.(Q)
10 They did not dislodge the Canaanites living in Gezer; to this day the Canaanites live among the people of Ephraim but are required to do forced labor.(R)

Chapter 16
The Tribe of Ephraim.[a] 1 The allotment for the descendants of Joseph ran from the Jordan by Jericho, east of the waters of Jericho, and ran up into the hill country of Bethel. 2 It went from Bethel (that is, Luz) over to the boundary of the Arkites in Ataroth. 3 It then descended westward to the territory of the Japhletites up to the territory of lower Beth-horon and on to Gezer, ending at the sea. 4 Manasseh and Ephraim, the sons of Joseph, received their inheritance.
5 This is the territory of the Ephraimites, divided according to its clans. The boundary of the inheritance went from Ataroth-addar in the east to upper Beth-horon 6 and it continued on to the sea. From Micmethath in the north it curved eastward to Taanath-shiloh, passing by it to the east of Janoah. 7 It went down from Janoah to Ataroth and Naarah, arriving at Jericho and then ending at the Jordan. 8 From Tappuah the boundary reached eastward to the Kanah River and from there it went to the sea. This was the inheritance of the tribe of the Ephraimites, divided according to its clans. 9 It included all of the cities that were set aside for the Ephraimites in the inheritance of the Manassehites, the cities and their dependent towns. 10 They did not drive out the Canaanites who were living in Gezer. The Canaanites live among the Ephraimites up to the present and they serve them doing forced labor.

Los territorios de Efraín y Manasés
16 La frontera del territorio asignado a los descendientes de José comenzaba en el sur, a la altura de los manantiales de Jericó, cerca del río Jordán. Luego pasaba por Jericó hacia el noroeste, atravesando el desierto y la región montañosa, hasta Betel. 2 De Betel pasaba por Atarot, donde vivían los arquitas. 3 Seguía luego hacia el oeste por la región de los jafletitas, hasta Bet-horón de abajo. De allí iba hasta Guézer, terminando en el mar Mediterráneo. 4 Así, Efraín y Manasés, descendientes de José, recibieron lo que les correspondía.
Territorio de la tribu de Efraín
5 El territorio de la tribu de Efraín comenzaba en Atarot, seguía hacia el este hasta Bet-horón de arriba, 6 y de allí al mar Mediterráneo. En el extremo norte estaba Micmetat, de donde la frontera seguía hacia el este hasta Taanat-siló, pasando luego por Janóah. 7 Después bajaba a Atarot y a Naará, pasaba por Jericó, y terminaba en el río Jordán. 8 Desde Tapúah la frontera iba hacia el oeste, hasta el arroyo de Caná, y terminaba en el mar Mediterráneo. Éste fue el territorio entregado a los grupos familiares de la tribu de Efraín. 9 Recibieron, además, algunas aldeas y pueblos que quedaban dentro del territorio de Manasés.
10 Sin embargo, los de Efraín no echaron a los cananeos que vivían en Guézer, sino que los dejaron seguir viviendo allí, pero los obligaron a trabajar para ellos como esclavos.
