Josue 17

1 Daytoy ti pannakabingay ti daga iti tribu ni Manases (nga inauna nga anak ni Jose) —dayta ket para kenni Makir, nga inauna nga anak ni Manases ken mismo nga ama ni Galaad. Naibingay kadagiti kaputotan ni Makir ti daga ti Galaad ken Basan, gapu ta ni Makir ket lalaki a mannakigubat.

This was the assignment of land for the tribe of Manasseh (who was the firstborn of Joseph)—that is, for Makir, who was Manasseh's firstborn and who himself was the father of Gilead. Makir's descendants were assigned the land of Gilead and Bashan, because Makir had been a man of war.

2 Naibingay ti daga kadagiti dadduma a tribu ti Manases, a naited kadagiti pulida—da Abi Ezer, Helek, Asriel, Sekem, Hefer, ken Semida. Dagitoy dagiti lallaki a kaputotan ni Manases nga anak ni Jose, nga imparang dagiti pulida.

Land was assigned to the rest of the tribe of Manasseh, given to their clans—Abiezer, Helek, Asriel, Shechem, Hepher, and Shemida. These were the male descendants of Manasseh son of Joseph, presented by their clans.

3 Ita, awan ti anak a lalaki ni Zelofehad nga anak ni Hefer nga anak ni Galaad nga anak ni Manases, ngem babbai laeng ti annakna. Dagitoy dagiti nagnagan dagiti annakna a babbai: da Mala, Noa, Hogla, Milca, ken Tirza.

Now Zelophehad son of Hepher son of Gilead son of Makir son of Manasseh had no sons, but only daughters. The names of his daughters were Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milkah, and Tirzah.

4 Napanda kenni Eleazar a padi, kenni Josue nga anak ni Nun, ken kadagiti mangidadaulo, ket kinunada, “Imbilin ni Yahweh kenni Moises nga ikkannakami iti tawid a kas met dagiti kakabsatmi.” Isu a kas panangsurot iti bilin ni Yahweh, inikkanna dagitoy a babbai iti tawid a kas met dagiti kakabsat ti amada.

They approached Eleazar the priest, Joshua son of Nun, and the leaders, and they said, “Yahweh commanded Moses to give to us an inheritance along with our brothers.” So, following the commandment of Yahweh, he gave those women an inheritance among the brothers of their father.

5 Sangapulo a kadisso ti daga ti naibingay iti Manases idiay Galaad ken Basan, nga adda iti sabali a bangir ti Jordan,

Ten parcels of land were assigned to Manasseh in Gilead and Bashan, which is on the other side of the Jordan,

6 gapu ta nakaawat dagiti annak a babbai ti Manases ti tawid a pakairamanan dagiti annakna a lallaki. Naibingay ti daga ti Galaad kadagiti dadduma iti tribu ti Manases.

because the daughters of Manasseh received an inheritance along with his sons. The land of Gilead was assigned to the rest of the tribe of Manasseh.

7 Dimmanon ti masakupan ti Manases manipud Aser agingga idiay Micmetat, nga adda iti daya ti Sekem. Ket nagpaabagatan ti beddeng kadagiti agnanaed iti asideg ti ubbog ti Tappua.

The territory of Manasseh reached from Asher to Mikmethath, which is east of Shechem. Then the border went southward to those living near the spring of Tappuah.

8 (Kukua ti Manases ti daga ti Tappua, ngem kukua ti tribu ti Efraim ti ili ti Tappua iti beddeng ti Manases.)

(The land of Tappuah belonged to Manasseh, but the town of Tappuah on the border of Manasseh belonged to the tribe of Ephraim.)

9 Simmalog ti beddeng iti waig ti Kana. Dagitoy a siudad iti abagatan ti waig kadagiti ili ti Manases ket kukua ti Efraim. Ti beddeng ti Manases ket ti akin-amianan a bangir ti waig, ken nagpatingga daytoy idiay baybay.

The border went down to the brook of Kanah. These cities south of the brook among the towns of Manasseh belonged to Ephraim. The border of Manasseh was on the north side of the brook, and it ended at the sea.

10 Kukua ti Efraim ti daga iti agpaabagatan, ken kukua ti Manases ti daga iti agpaamianan; ti beddeng ket ti baybay. Dumanon ti Aser iti amianan, ken ti Issacar iti daya.

The land to the south belonged to Ephraim, and the land to the north was Manasseh's; the sea was the border. On the north side Asher can be reached, and to the east, Issachar.

11 Kasta met, iti Issacar ken Aser, tinagikua ti Manases ti Bet San ken dagiti bariona, ti Ibleam ken dagiti bariona, dagiti agnanaed iti Dor ken dagiti bariona, dagiti agnanaed iti Endor ken dagiti bariona, dagiti agnanaed iti Taanac ken dagiti bariona, ken dagiti agnanaed iti Megiddo ken dagiti bariona (ken ti maikatlo a siudad ket Nafet).

Also in Issachar and in Asher, Manasseh possessed Beth Shan and its villages, Ibleam and its villages, the inhabitants of Dor and its villages, the inhabitants of Endor and its villages, the inhabitants of Taanach and its villages, and the inhabitants of Megiddo and its villages (and the third city is Napheth).

12 Ngem saan a matagikua ti tribu ti Manases dagitoy a siudad, ta nagtuloy nga agnanaed dagiti Cananeo iti daytoy a daga.

Yet the tribe of Manasseh could not take possession of those cities, for the Canaanites continued to live in this land.

13 Idi pimmigsa dagiti tattao ti Israel, pinilitda nga agtrabaho dagiti Cananeo, ngem saanda a napapanaw ida.

When the people of Israel grew strong, they put the Canaanites to forced labor, but did not completely drive them out.

14 Ket kinuna dagiti kaputotan ni Jose kenni Josue, “Apay a maysa laeng ti imbingaymo kadakami a daga ken maysa a paset para iti tawid, idinto ta adu ti bilangmi, ken binendisionannakami ni Yahweh?”

Then the descendants of Joseph said to Joshua, saying, “Why have you given us only one assignment of land and one portion for an inheritance, since we are a people great in number, and all along Yahweh has blessed us?”

15 Kinuna ni Josue kadakuada, “No adu ti bilangyo, sumang-atkayo a mismo iti kabakiran ket sadiay dalusanyo a mismo ti daga idiay daga dagiti Perezeo ken dagiti Refaim. Aramidenyo daytoy, agsipud ta bassit unay para kadakayo ti katurturodan a pagilian ti Efraim.”

Joshua said to them, “If you are a people great in number, go up by yourselves to the forest and there clear the ground for yourselves in the land of the Perizzites and of the Rephaim. Do this, since the hill country of Ephraim is too small for you.”

16 Kinuna dagiti kaputotan ni Jose, “Saan nga umanay ti katurturodan a pagilian para kadatayo. Ngem addaan kadagiti karuahe a landok dagiti amin a Cananeo nga agnanaed iti tanap, kasta met dagiti adda idiay Bet San ken kadagiti bariona, ken dagiti adda iti tanap ti Jezreel.”

The descendants of Joseph said, “The hill country is not enough for us. But all the Canaanites who live in the valley have chariots of iron, both those who are in Beth Shan and its villages, and those who are in the Valley of Jezreel.”

17 Ket kinuna ni Josue iti balay ni Jose—iti Efraim ken Manases, “Adu ti bilangyo, ken nakabilbilegkayo. Saan laeng a maysa a disso iti daga ti naited kadakayo.

Then Joshua said to the house of Joseph—to Ephraim and Manasseh, “You are a people great in number, and you have great power. You must not have only one piece of land assigned to you.

18 Agbalinto pay a kukuayo ti katurturodan a pagilian. Nupay kabakiran daytoy, dalusan ken tagikuaenyo daytoy agingga kadagiti kaadayoan a beddengna. Papanawenyo dagiti Cananeo, uray no adda karuaheda a landok, ken uray no napigsada.”

The hill country will also be yours. Though it is a forest, you will clear it and take possession of it to its farthest borders. You will drive out the Canaanites, even though they have chariots of iron, and even though they are strong.”
