Joshua 16

1 Similarly, the lot of the sons of Joseph fell from the Jordan, opposite Jericho and its waters, to the east, to the wilderness that ascends from Jericho to the mountain of Bethel.

约瑟的子孙拈阄所得之地是从靠近耶利哥的约旦河起，以耶利哥东边的水为界：从耶利哥上去，通过山地的旷野，到伯特利；

2 And it goes out from Bethel to Luz. And it crosses the border of Archi to Ataroth.

又从伯特利到路斯，接连到亚基人的境界，至亚他绿；

3 And it descends to the west, beside the border of Japhleti, as far as the borders of lower Beth-horon, and to Gezer. And the last parts of its regions are by the great sea.

又往西下到押利提人的境界，到下伯·和 的境界，直到基色，通到海为止。

4 And Manasseh and Ephraim, the sons of Joseph, possessed it.

约瑟的儿子玛拿西、以法莲就得了他们的地业。

5 And the border of the sons of Ephraim was made by their families. And their possession toward the east was from Ataroth-addar, as far as upper Beth-horon,

以法莲子孙的境界，按着宗族所得的，记在下面：他们地业的东界是亚他绿·亚达到上伯·和 ；

6 and the confines extend to the sea. Yet truly, Michmethath looks toward the north, and it circles around the borders, toward the east, into Taanath-shiloh. And it continues on, from the east, to Janoah.

往西通到北边的密米他，又向东绕到他纳·示罗，又接连到雅挪哈的东边；

7 And it descends from Janoah to Ataroth and Naarah. and it continues to Jericho, and it extends to the Jordan.

从雅挪哈下到亚他绿，又到拿拉，达到耶利哥，通到约旦河为止；

8 From Tappuah, it passes on, opposite the sea, into the Valley of Reeds. And its exit is at the very salty sea. This is the possession of the tribe of the sons of Ephraim, by their families.

从他普亚往西，到加拿河，直通到海为止。这就是以法莲支派按着宗族所得的地业。

9 And there were cities, with their villages, which were set aside for the sons of Ephraim, in the midst of the possession of the sons of Manasseh.

另外在玛拿西人地业中得了些城邑和属城的村庄。这都是分给以法莲子孙的。

10 And the sons of Ephraim did not put to death the Canaanite that was living at Gezer. And the Canaanite lived in the midst of Ephraim, even to this day, paying tribute.

他们没有赶出住基色的迦南人；迦南人却住在以法莲人中间，成为做苦工的仆人，直到今日。
