Ephraim and West Manasseh
16 The lot [a]fell to the children of Joseph from the Jordan, by Jericho, to the waters of Jericho on the east, to the (A)wilderness that goes up from Jericho through the mountains to [b]Bethel, 2 then went out [c]from (B)Bethel to Luz, passed along to the border of the Archites at Ataroth, 3 and went down westward to the boundary of the Japhletites, (C)as far as the boundary of Lower Beth Horon to (D)Gezer; and [d]it ended at the sea.
4 (E)So the children of Joseph, Manasseh and Ephraim, took their [e]inheritance.
The Land of Ephraim
5 (F)The border of the children of Ephraim, according to their families, was thus: The border of their inheritance on the east side was (G)Ataroth Addar (H)as far as Upper Beth Horon.
6 And the border went out toward the sea on the north side of (I)Michmethath; then the border went around eastward to Taanath Shiloh, and passed by it on the east of Janohah. 7 Then it went down from Janohah to Ataroth and [f]Naarah, reached to Jericho, and came out at the Jordan.
8 The border went out from (J)Tappuah westward to the (K)Brook Kanah, and [g]it ended at the sea. This was the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Ephraim according to their families. 9 (L)The separate cities for the children of Ephraim were among the inheritance of the children of Manasseh, all the cities with their villages.
10 (M)And they did not drive out the Canaanites who dwelt in Gezer; but the Canaanites dwell among the Ephraimites to this day and have become forced laborers.

16 Pjesa që iu dha me short bijve të Jozefit shtrihej nga Jordani pranë Jerikos, në drejtim të ujërave të Jerikos në lindje, deri në shkretëtirën që ngjitet nga Jeriko në Bethel nëpër krahinën malore.
2 Kufiri vijonte pastaj nga Betheli në Luc dhe kalonte në Ataroth nëpër kufirin e Arkejve,
3 dhe zbriste në perëndim në drejtim të kufirit të Jafletejve deri në kufirin e Beth-Horonit të poshtëm dhe deri në Gezer, duke mbaruar në det.
4 Kështu bijtë e Jozefit, Manasi dhe Efraimi, patën secili trashëgiminë e vet.
5 Këto qenë kufijtë e bijve të Efraimit, simbas familjeve të tyre. Kufiri i trashëgimisë së tyre, në lindje, ishte Atrothi deri në Beth-Horonin e sipërm;
6 kufiri shtrihej deri në det në veri të Mikmethathit, pastaj kthente nga lndja deri në Tanaath-Shiloh dhe i kalonte përpara në lindje të Janoahut.
7 Nga Janoahu zbriste pastaj në Ataroth dhe Naarah dhe zgjatej deri në Jeriko, për të mbaruar në Jordan.
8 Nga Tapuah kufiri shtrihej në perëndim deri në përruan Kanah dhe mbaronte në det. Kjo qe trashëgimia e fisit të Efraimit, simbas familjeve të tyre,
9 bashkë me qytetet e rezervuara për bijtë e Efraimit në mes të trashëgimisë së bijve të Manasit, të gjitha qytetet bashkë me fshatrat e tyre.
10 Por ata nuk i dëbuan Kananejtë që banonin në Gezer; kështu Kananejtë kanë banuar në mes të Efraimit deri ditën e sotme, por u bënë skllevër.

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)
