Joshua 16
Names of God Bible
Land for Joseph’s Sons
16 The lot was drawn for Joseph. The border of Joseph’s territory goes from the Jordan River at Jericho to the springs of Jericho on the east, through the desert that goes up from Jericho, and through the mountains to Bethel. 2 From Bethel the border goes to Luz and over to Ataroth at the border of the Archites. 3 Then it descends west to the border of Japhlet and Lower Beth Horon, on to Gezer, and ends at the Mediterranean Sea. 4 So Joseph’s sons, Manasseh and Ephraim, received this land as their inheritance.
Ephraim’s Land
5 This is the territory for the families descended from Ephraim. The eastern border of the land they inherited is from Ataroth Addar to Upper Beth Horon. 6 From there the border goes west, with Michmethath on the north. The border then turns east to Taanath Shiloh and passes east to Janoah. 7 From Janoah it descends to Ataroth and Naarah, touches Jericho, and ends at the Jordan River. 8 At Tappuah the border goes west along the Kanah River and ends at the Mediterranean Sea. This is the land given as an inheritance to the families of the tribe of Ephraim 9 with all the cities and their villages selected for Ephraim in Manasseh’s territory. 10 However, they did not force out the Canaanites who lived in Gezer. So the Canaanites still live in Ephraim today, but they are required to do forced labor.
Giosué 16
La Nuova Diodati
16 La parte assegnata in sorte ai figli di Giuseppe si estendeva dal Giordano presso Gerico, verso le acque di Gerico a est, fino al deserto che sale da Gerico a Bethel per la regione montuosa.
2 Il confine continuava poi da Bethel a Luz e passava per la frontiera degli Arkei ad Ataroth,
3 scendeva a ovest verso il confine dei Jafletei fino al confine di Beth-Horon inferiore e fino a Ghezer, per finire quindi sul mare.
4 Così i figli di Giuseppe, Manasse ed Efraim, ebbero ciascuno la loro eredità.
5 Questi furono i confini dei figli di Efraim, secondo le loro famiglie. Il confine della loro eredità, a est, era Atroth, fino a Beth-Horon superiore;
6 il confine si estendeva fino al mare a nord di Mikmethath, ripiegava quindi verso est fino a Taanath-Sciloh e le passava davanti a est di Janoah.
7 Da Janoah scendeva quindi ad Ataroth e a Naarah e toccava Gerico, per terminare al Giordano.
8 Da Tappuah il confine si estendeva verso ovest fino al torrente Kanah, per finire sul mare. Questa fu l'eredità della tribú dei figli di Efraim, secondo le loro famiglie,
9 assieme alle città messe da parte per i figli di Efraim in mezzo all'eredità dei figli di Manasse, tutte le città con i loro villaggi.
10 Ma essi non scacciarono i Cananei che abitavano a Ghezer; così i Cananei hanno dimorato in mezio a Efraim fino al giorno d'oggi, ma sono stati soggetti a servitú.

Ang Lupaing para sa Lipi ng Efraim at Manases
16 Ang lupaing napapunta sa angkan ni Jose ay nagsisimula sa Jordan sa tapat ng Jerico—sa silangan ng batis ng Jerico; papunta sa ilang, at umahon sa kaburulan hanggang sa Bethel; 2 buhat sa Bethel ay nagtuloy sa Luz at nilakbay ang Atarot na lupain ng mga Arkita; 3 bumabâ pakanluran sa lupain ng mga Jaflatita, nagdaan sa hangganan ng Timog Beth-horon, tumuloy ng Gezer, at nagwakas sa Dagat Mediteraneo.
4 Ito ang lupaing napapunta sa angkan ni Jose, sa mga lipi ni Efraim at Manases.
5 Ang hangganang silangan ng lupaing napunta sa lipi ni Efraim ay ang Atarot-adar, hanggang sa Hilagang Beth-horon. 6 Buhat doon ay naglakbay sa timog ng Micmetat, at nagtungo sa Dagat Mediteraneo. Sa gawing silanga'y lumikong patungo sa Taanat-silo, at buhat doo'y nagtuloy sa may silangan ng Janoa. 7 Lumampas ng Janoa at bumabâ sa Atarot at Naara, nagdaan sa tabi ng Jerico at nagtapos sa Jordan. 8 Pumakanluran buhat sa Tapua, namaybay ng batis ng Cana, at nagtapos sa Dagat Mediteraneo. Ito ang lupaing napapunta sa lipi ni Efraim, 9 bukod sa mga bayan at nayong ibinigay sa kanila sa nasasakupan ng lupain ng lipi ni Manases. 10 Hindi(A) na nila pinaalis ang mga Cananeong nakatira sa Gezer, kaya may mga Cananeong naninirahan sa Efraim hanggang ngayon. Subalit sapilitang pinagtrabaho ang mga ito bilang mga alipin.
Joshua 16
New International Version
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)
