Joshua 16

1 And the limit of the land marked out for the children of Joseph went out from Jordan at Jericho, at the waters of Jericho on the east, in the waste land, going up from Jericho through the hill-country to Beth-el;

Saiu depois a sorte dos filhos de José, desde o Jordão de Jericó ás aguas de Jericó, para o oriente, subindo ao deserto de Jericó pelas montanhas de Beth-el;

2 And it goes out from Beth-el to Luz, and on as far as the limit of the Archites to Ataroth;

E de Beth-el sae a Luza, e passa ao termo dos archeos, até Ataroth;

3 And it goes down to the west to the limit of the Japhletites, to the limit of Beth-horon the lower, as far as Gezer; ending at the sea.

E desce da banda do occidente ao termo de Japhleti, até ao termo de Beth-horon de baixo, e até Gazer, sendo as suas saidas para o mar.

4 And the children of Joseph, Manasseh and Ephraim, took their heritage.

Assim alcançaram a sua herança os filhos de José, Manasseh e Ephraim.

5 And the limit of the land of the children of Ephraim by their families was marked out in this way: the limit of their heritage to the east was Ataroth-addar, to Beth-horon the higher;

E foi o termo dos filhos de Ephraim, segundo as suas familias, a saber: o termo da sua herança para o oriente era Atharoth-addar até Beth-horon de cima:

6 The line goes out to the west at Michmethath on the north; then turning to the east to Taanath-shiloh, going past it on the east of Janoah;

E sae este termo para o occidente junto a Mikametath, desde o norte, e torna este termo para o oriente a Thaanat-silo, e passa por ella desde o oriente a Janoha;

7 And from Janoah down to Ataroth, and to Naarah, and touching Jericho, it goes on to Jordan.

E desce desde Janoha a Atharoth e a Naharath, e toca em Jericó, e vae sair ao Jordão.

8 From Tappuah the line goes on to the west to the river of Kanah; ending at the sea. This is the heritage of the children of Ephraim by their families;

De Tappuah vae este termo para o occidente ao ribeiro de Cana, e as suas saidas no mar: esta é a herança da tribu dos filhos de Ephraim, segundo as suas familias.

9 Together with the towns marked out for the children of Ephraim in the heritage of Manasseh, all the towns with their unwalled places.

E as cidades que se separaram para os filhos de Ephraim estavam no meio da herança dos filhos de Manasseh: todas aquellas cidades e as suas aldeias.

10 And the Canaanites who were living in Gezer were not forced out; but the Canaanites have been living among Ephraim, to this day, as servants, doing forced work.

E não expelliram aos cananeos que habitavam em Gazer: e os cananeos habitaram no meio dos ephraimitas até ao dia de hoje; porém serviam-n'os, sendo-lhes tributarios.
