< Yosua 16 >

1 Kemudian keluarlah undian bagi bani Yusuf. Batas mereka mulai dari sungai Yordan dekat Yerikho, di sebelah timur mata-mata air Yerikho, melalui padang gurun, yang naik dari Yerikho ke pegunungan, ke Betel,
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 keluar dari Betel menuju ke Lus, terus ke daerah orang Arki, ke Atarot,
It went out from Bethel to Luz, and passed along to the border of the Archites to Ataroth;
3 turun ke barat ke daerah orang Yaflet, sampai daerah Bet-Horon Hilir dan selanjutnya sampai Gezer dan berakhir di laut.
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 Demikianlah bani Yusuf, yakni suku Manasye dan suku Efraim, menerima milik pusaka.
The children of Joseph, Manasseh and Ephraim, took their inheritance.
5 Daerah bani Efraim menurut kaum-kaum mereka ialah demikian: batas milik pusaka mereka ke timur ialah Atarot-Adar sampai Bet-Horon Hulu.
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 Ke barat batas itu keluar di sebelah utara Mikhmetat; kemudian batas itu membelok ke timur ke Taanat-Silo, dan dari sana terus sampai ke sebelah timur Yanoah,
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 turun dari Yanoah ke Atarot dan Naharat, menyinggung daerah Yerikho dan keluar ke sungai Yordan.
It went down from Janoah to Ataroth, to Naarah, reached to Jericho, and went out at the Jordan.
8 Dari Tapuah batas itu terus ke barat ke sungai Kana dan berakhir ke laut. Itulah milik pusaka suku bani Efraim menurut kaum-kaum mereka.
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 Selanjutnya bagi bani Efraim ditentukan kota-kota terpisah di tengah-tengah milik pusaka bani Manasye, segala kota itu dengan desa-desanya.
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 Tetapi orang Kanaan yang diam di Gezer tidaklah dihalau mereka. Jadi orang Kanaan itu masih tetap tinggal di tengah-tengah suku Efraim sampai sekarang, tetapi menjadi budak rodi.
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.
