Joshua 17:17-18
New English Translation
17 Joshua said to the family[a] of Joseph—to both Ephraim and Manasseh: “You have many people and great military strength. You will not have just one tribal allotment. 18 The whole hill country[b] will be yours; though it is a forest, you can clear it, and it will be entirely yours.[c] You can conquer the Canaanites, though they have chariots with iron-rimmed wheels and are strong.”
