Het land van de stammen van Jozef
16 1-4 De zuidgrens van de stammen van Jozef (dat zijn Efraïm en de halve stam van Manasse) liep van de Jordaan bij Jericho door de woestijn en het heuvelgebied naar Betel. Van Betel liep hij naar Atarot, in het gebied van de Arkieten, en in westelijke richting naar de grens van de Jaflethieten tot aan Laag-Bet-Horon. Vanaf die plaats ging hij verder naar Gezer en eindigde bij de Middellandse Zee. 5,6 De oostelijke grens van de stam van Efraïm begon bij Athroth-Addar. Vanaf dat punt liep hij naar Hoog-Bet-Horon en verder naar de Middellandse Zee. De noordgrens begon aan zee, liep in oostelijke richting langs Michmetath en verder langs Taänath-Silo en Janoah. 7 Vanaf Janoah liep hij in zuidelijke richting naar Atarot en Naharath, langs Jericho om bij de Jordaan uit te komen. 8 De westelijke helft van de noordgrens begon bij Tappuah en volgde daarna de beek Kana tot aan de Middellandse Zee. 9 Efraïm kreeg tevens enkele steden in het gebied van Manasse. 10 De Kanaänieten die in Gezer woonden, werden nooit verdreven en wonen daarom nog steeds als slaven onder het volk van Efraïm.

16 The lot came out for the children of Joseph from the Jordan at Jericho, at the waters of Jericho on the east, even the wilderness, going up from Jericho through the hill country to Bethel. 2 It went out from Bethel to Luz, and passed along to the border of the Archites to Ataroth; 3 and it went down westward to the border of the Japhletites, to the border of Beth Horon the lower, and on to Gezer; and ended at the sea.
4 The children of Joseph, Manasseh and Ephraim, took their inheritance. 5 This was the border of the children of Ephraim according to their families. The border of their inheritance eastward was Ataroth Addar, to Beth Horon the upper. 6 The border went out westward at Michmethath on the north. The border turned about eastward to Taanath Shiloh, and passed along it on the east of Janoah. 7 It went down from Janoah to Ataroth, to Naarah, reached to Jericho, and went out at the Jordan. 8 From Tappuah the border went along westward to the brook of Kanah; and ended at the sea. This is the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Ephraim according to their families; 9 together with the cities which were set apart for the children of Ephraim in the middle of the inheritance of the children of Manasseh, all the cities with their villages. 10 They didn’t drive out the Canaanites who lived in Gezer; but the Canaanites dwell in the territory of Ephraim to this day, and have become servants to do forced labor.

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)
