Josué 16
Nueva Versión Internacional (Castilian)
Los territorios de Efraín y Manasés
16 El territorio asignado a los descendientes de José comenzaba en el río Jordán,[a] al este de los manantiales de Jericó; y de allí ascendía hacia la región montañosa de Betel, a través del desierto. 2 De Betel, es decir, Luz,[b] continuaba hacia el territorio de los arquitas hasta Astarot, 3 descendía hacia el oeste al territorio de los jafletitas hasta la región de Bet Jorón de Abajo y Guézer, y terminaba en el mar Mediterráneo. 4 Así fue como las tribus de Manasés y Efraín, descendientes de José, recibieron como herencia sus territorios.
El territorio de Efraín
5 Este es el territorio que recibieron la tribu de Efraín y sus respectivos clanes:
En el lado oriental sus límites se extendían desde Atarot Adar hasta Bet Jorón de Arriba, 6 y llegaban hasta el mar Mediterráneo. En Micmetat, que está al norte, hacían una curva hacia el oriente rumbo a Tanat Siló y de allí llegaban a Janoa. 7 Descendían de Janoa hacia Atarot y Nará, pasando por Jericó hasta llegar al río Jordán. 8 De Tapúaj, la frontera seguía hacia el occidente rumbo al arroyo de Caná y terminaba en el mar Mediterráneo. Este es el territorio que recibió como herencia la tribu de Efraín por sus clanes. 9 El territorio también incluía las ciudades y sus respectivas aldeas que se encontraban en el territorio asignado a la tribu de Manasés.
10 Los efraimitas no expulsaron a los cananeos que vivían en Guézer; les permitieron vivir entre ellos, como sucede hasta el día de hoy, pero los sometieron a trabajos forzados.
Joshua 16
New King James Version
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.

King James Version
16 And the lot of the children of Joseph fell from Jordan by Jericho, unto the water of Jericho on the east, to the wilderness that goeth up from Jericho throughout mount Bethel,
2 And goeth out from Bethel to Luz, and passeth along unto the borders of Archi to Ataroth,
3 And goeth down westward to the coast of Japhleti, unto the coast of Bethhoron the nether, and to Gezer; and the goings out thereof are at the sea.
4 So the children of Joseph, Manasseh and Ephraim, took their inheritance.
5 And the border of the children of Ephraim according to their families was thus: even the border of their inheritance on the east side was Atarothaddar, unto Bethhoron the upper;
6 And the border went out toward the sea to Michmethah on the north side; and the border went about eastward unto Taanathshiloh, and passed by it on the east to Janohah;
7 And it went down from Janohah to Ataroth, and to Naarath, and came to Jericho, and went out at Jordan.
8 The border went out from Tappuah westward unto the river Kanah; and the goings out thereof were at the sea. This is the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Ephraim by their families.
9 And the separate cities for the children of Ephraim were among the inheritance of the children of Manasseh, all the cities with their villages.
10 And they drave not out the Canaanites that dwelt in Gezer: but the Canaanites dwell among the Ephraimites unto this day, and serve under tribute.
