< Joshua 16 >

1 The land that was allotted to [the two tribes of Ephraim and Manasseh that were descended from] Joseph started at the Jordan [River], east of the springs at Jericho.
Masrol layen nu eir ke acn sin tulik natul Joseph ah mutawauk Infacl Jordan apkuran nu Jericho, ke sie acn kutulap in unon in kof Jericho, srola nu yen mwesis na utyak nu yen fulat fahla nwe Bethel.
2 It extended west from Jericho to the hilly area near Bethel, which is also called Luz. It extended as far as Ataroth, at the border of the land where the Arki people-group lived.
Fahla Bethel lac nu Luz, ac srola nwe Ataroth Addar, su acn sin mwet Arch,
3 From there it extended west to the border of the land where the Japhleti people-group lived, and then it extended west to the area near Lower Beth-Horon. From there it extended west to Gezer [city] and from there to the [Mediterranean] Sea.
oatula nu roto ke acn lun mwet Japhlet, som nwe ke sun Beth Horon Ten, fahla nwe Gezer, ac safla sisken Meoa Mediterranean.
4 That is the land that the tribes of Ephraim and Manasseh were allotted.
Tulik natul Joseph, su sruf lal Ephraim ac sruf lal Manasseh Roto, elos eis acn inge tuh in ma lalos.
5 The border of the land that was allotted to the clans of the tribe of Ephraim started at Ataroth-Addar [city] in the east. It extended to Upper Beth-Horon
Pa inge acn lun sou ke sruf lal Ephraim. Masrol lalos mutawauk Ataroth Addar, fahla nu kutulap nu Beth Horon Lucng,
6 and from there to the [Mediterranean] Sea.
ac safla ke Meoa Mediterranean. Michmethath el oan layen eir. Masrol nu kutulap fahla kuhfla nu acn Taanath Shiloh, fahla we lac nu kutulap in acn Janoah,
7 From Michmethath [on the north] it extended east to Taanath and from there on to Janoah. From there it extended [south] to Ataroth [city] and to Naarah [town]. From there it extended to Jericho and from there to the Jordan [River].
na oatula Janoah lac nwe Ataroth ac Naarah, ut sisken acn Jericho ac fahla safla ke Infacl Jordan.
8 The [northern] border extended from Tappuah west to Kanah Ravine, and ended at the [Mediterranean] Sea. That was the land that was allotted to the tribe of Ephraim.
Masrol nu roto fahla liki acn Tappuah nu infacl srisrik Kanah ac safla ke Meoa Mediterranean. Pa inge acn ma itukyang nu sin sou in sruf lal Ephraim tuh in ma lalos.
9 Many of those towns were really within the area allotted to the tribe of Manasseh.
Acn inge weang pacna acn ac inkul ma oan luin acn lun Manasseh, tusruktu itukyang nu sin mwet Ephraim.
10 The people of the tribe of Ephraim could not force the Canaan people-group to leave Gezer, so the Canaan people-group still live among the people of the tribe of Ephraim, but the Israelis forced the people of the Canaan people-group to become their slaves.
Mwet Ephraim elos tuh tiana lusak mwet Canaan ma muta in acn Gezer. Ke ma inge mwet Canaan elos srakna muta inmasrlon mwet Ephraim nwe misenge, tusruktu elos orekma oana mwet kohs nu sin mwet Ephraim.
