Joshua 17

1 [This is a list of] the land that was allotted to the tribe of Manasseh. Manasseh’s oldest son was Makir and his grandson was Gilead. Makir’s descendants were great warriors, so the lands in the Gilead and Bashan regions were allotted to their clan.

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.

2 Land was also allotted to the other clans of the tribe of Manasseh: The clans of Abiezer, Helek, Asriel, Shechem, Hepher, and Shemida.

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.

3 Hepher’s son Zelophehad had no sons, but he had five daughters: Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah.

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.

4 They went to Eleazar the Supreme Priest, and to Joshua and to the other Israeli leaders. They said, “[We want you to give us some land, because] Yahweh told Moses that he should give to us some land, just like you gave to the men.” So Eleazar did what Yahweh had commanded, and he allotted to them some land, just like he allotted to their uncles.

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.

5 So the tribe of Manasseh eventually had ten sections [of land west of the Jordan River] and [two sections, ] Gilead and Bashan, on the east side of the Jordan [River].

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

6 So those female descendants of Manasseh also were allotted land [on the west side of the river] just like the men were allotted. The other parts of the Gilead area were allotted to the male descendants of Manasseh.

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.

7 The land allotted to the tribe of Manasseh was between the land where the tribe of Asher lives and Michmethath [town], near Shechem [city]. The border extended south to the Tappuah Spring.

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.

8 The land near the Tappuah area belonged to the tribe of Manasseh, but the town of Tappuah, which was at the border of the land that was allotted to the tribe of Manasseh, was allotted to the tribe of Ephraim.

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

9 The border [of the land allotted to the tribe of Manasseh] extended south to Kanah Gorge. From there it extended [west] along the north side of the gorge and ended at the [Mediterranean] Sea.

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.

10 The land on the south side of the gorge belonged to the tribe of Ephraim, and the land on the north side belonged to the tribe of Manasseh. The western border of the land allotted to the tribe of Manasseh was the [Mediterranean] Sea. To the north, the border of their land extended from the land allotted to the tribe of Asher [at the northwest] to the land allotted to the tribe of Issachar [at the northeast.]

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.

11 But there are cities inside the area allotted to the tribes of Issachar and Asher. Those cities, along with their surrounding villages, were allotted to people from the tribe of Manasseh. These cities are Beth-Shan, Ibleam, Dor (which is also named Naphoth-Dor, ) Endor, Taanach, and Megiddo.

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).

12 The men of the tribe of Manasseh were not able to force the people who lived in those cities to leave, so the people of the Canaan people-group continued to live in those cities.

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

13 But [years later] when the Israelis became better [warriors], they forced the Canaan people-group to work for them as slaves, although they did not force them to leave the land.

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

14 The people of the tribes of Ephraim and Manasseh said to Joshua, “You allotted to us only one area of land, but there are a lot of us. Yahweh has blessed us very much [with the result that our tribe has grown very large]. So why did you give us only a small part of the land [RHQ]?”

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?”

15 Joshua replied to them, “[I agree that] you do not have enough land in the hilly area of the tribe of Ephraim. So, since you have a lot of people, I will allot more land to you, in the hilly region. But you will have to [cut down the trees] in the forest [and] make a place for yourselves in the land where the Periz and Repha people-groups live.”

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.”

16 The people of the tribes of Ephraim and Manasseh replied, “It is true that the land in the hilly area is not big enough for us, but the Canaan people-group who live in the lowlands, in Beth-Shan and the surrounding villages in that area, and in the Jezreel Valley, have iron chariots, [so we will not be able to defeat them]!”

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.”

17 Joshua replied to them, “Your tribe is very numerous and very powerful. So I will allot more land for you in the hilly area,

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.

18 but you will have to cut down the trees in order to make a place for you to live. [It is true that] the Canaan people-group are strong and have iron chariots, but you will be able to force them to leave that valley.”

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.”
