Joshua 17

1 This was the lot for the tribe of Manasseh, for he was the firstborn of Joseph. As for Machir the firstborn of Manasseh, the father of Gilead, because he was a man of war, therefore he had Gilead and Bashan.

Bagian undian yang ditentukan bagi suku Manasye, sebab dialah anak sulung Yusuf, ialah demikian: Kepada Makhir, anak sulung Manasye, bapa Gilead, telah diberikan Gilead dan Basan, karena ia seorang tentara.

2 So this was for the rest of the children of Manasseh according to their families: for the children of Abiezer, for the children of Helek, for the children of Asriel, for the children of Shechem, for the children of Hepher, and for the children of Shemida. These were the male children of Manasseh the son of Joseph according to their families.

Jadi bagian itulah yang ditentukan bagi anak-anak Manasye yang lain, menurut kaum-kaum mereka, yakni bagi bani Abiezer, bani Helek, bani Asriel, bani Sekhem, bani Hefer dan bani Semida; itulah keturunan yang laki-laki dari Manasye bin Yusuf, menurut kaum-kaum mereka.

3 But Zelophehad, the son of Hepher, the son of Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh, had no sons, but daughters. These are the names of his daughters: Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah.

Tetapi Zelafehad bin Hefer bin Gilead bin Makhir bin Manasye tidak mempunyai anak laki-laki, tetapi hanya anak perempuan. Inilah nama anak-anaknya itu: Mahla, Noa, Hogla, Milka dan Tirza.

4 They came to Eleazar the priest, and to Joshua the son of Nun, and to the princes, saying, “The LORD commanded Moses to give us an inheritance amongst our brothers.” Therefore according to the commandment of the LORD he gave them an inheritance amongst the brothers of their father.

Mereka datang menghadap imam Eleazar, dan menghadap Yosua bin Nun, serta para pemimpin, dan berkata: "TUHAN telah memerintahkan kepada Musa untuk memberikan milik pusaka kepada kami di tengah-tengah saudara-saudara kami." Sebab itu diberikannya kepada mereka, milik pusaka di tengah-tengah saudara-saudara ayah mereka, sesuai dengan titah TUHAN.

5 Ten parts fell to Manasseh, in addition to the land of Gilead and Bashan, which is beyond the Jordan;

Demikianlah kepada suku Manasye jatuh sepuluh bidang tanah, selain dari tanah Gilead dan Basan yang di seberang Yordan,

6 because the daughters of Manasseh had an inheritance amongst his sons. The land of Gilead belonged to the rest of the sons of Manasseh.

sebab anak-anak perempuan Manasye telah menerima milik pusaka di tengah-tengah anak-anaknya lelaki, sedang tanah Gilead ditentukan bagi anak-anak lelaki Manasye yang lain.

7 The border of Manasseh was from Asher to Michmethath, which is before Shechem. The border went along to the right hand, to the inhabitants of En Tappuah.

Jadi batas daerah Manasye ialah dari Asyer ke Mikhmetat yang di sebelah timur Sikhem; kemudian batas itu terus ke selatan ke daerah penduduk En-Tapuah.

8 The land of Tappuah belonged to Manasseh; but Tappuah on the border of Manasseh belonged to the children of Ephraim.

Tanah Tapuah adalah kepunyaan suku Manasye, tetapi kota Tapuah, dekat batas daerah Manasye, adalah kepunyaan bani Efraim.

9 The border went down to the brook of Kanah, southward of the brook. These cities belonged to Ephraim amongst the cities of Manasseh. The border of Manasseh was on the north side of the brook, and ended at the sea.

Kemudian batas itu turun ke sungai Kana, ke sebelah selatan sungai itu. Kota-kota di sana adalah kepunyaan suku Efraim, sekalipun di tengah-tengah kota-kota suku Manasye. Selanjutnya batas daerah Manasye itu lewat dari sebelah utara sungai itu dan berakhir ke laut.

10 Southward it was Ephraim’s, and northward it was Manasseh’s, and the sea was his border. They reached to Asher on the north, and to Issachar on the east.

Ke selatan daerah itu kepunyaan suku Efraim dan ke utara kepunyaan suku Manasye. Batasnya ialah laut; di sebelah utara batas daerah itu menyinggung daerah Asyer, di sebelah timur menyinggung daerah Isakhar.

11 Manasseh had three heights in Issachar, in Asher Beth Shean and its towns, and Ibleam and its towns, and the inhabitants of Dor and its towns, and the inhabitants of Endor and its towns, and the inhabitants of Taanach and its towns, and the inhabitants of Megiddo and its towns.

Tetapi di daerah Isakhar dan Asyer ada juga kepunyaan suku Manasye, yakni Bet-Sean dengan segala anak kotanya, Yibleam dengan segala anak kotanya, penduduk Dor dengan segala anak kotanya, penduduk En-Dor dengan segala anak kotanya, penduduk Taanakh dengan segala anak kotanya, dan penduduk Megido dengan segala anak kotanya, yakni ketiga daerah bukit itu.

12 Yet the children of Manasseh couldn’t drive out the inhabitants of those cities; but the Canaanites would dwell in that land.

Tetapi bani Manasye tidak dapat menduduki kota-kota itu, sebab orang Kanaan berhasil untuk tetap diam di negeri itu.

13 When the children of Israel had grown strong, they put the Canaanites to forced labour, and didn’t utterly drive them out.

Setelah orang Israel menjadi kuat, orang Kanaan itu dibuatnya menjadi orang rodi, tetapi tidaklah sama sekali mereka itu dihalaunya.

14 The children of Joseph spoke to Joshua, saying, “Why have you given me just one lot and one part for an inheritance, since we are a numerous people, because the LORD has blessed us so far?”

Berkatalah bani Yusuf kepada Yosua, demikian: "Mengapa engkau memberikan kepadaku hanya satu bagian undian dan satu bidang tanah saja menjadi milik pusaka, padahal aku ini bangsa yang banyak jumlahnya, karena TUHAN sampai sekarang memberkati aku?"

15 Joshua said to them, “If you are a numerous people, go up to the forest, and clear land for yourself there in the land of the Perizzites and of the Rephaim, since the hill country of Ephraim is too narrow for you.”

Jawab Yosua kepada mereka: "Kalau engkau bangsa yang banyak jumlahnya, pergilah ke hutan dan bukalah tanah bagimu di sana di negeri orang Feris dan orang Refaim, jika pegunungan Efraim terlalu sesak bagimu."

16 The children of Joseph said, “The hill country is not enough for us. All the Canaanites who dwell in the land of the valley have chariots of iron, both those who are in Beth Shean and its towns, and those who are in the valley of Jezreel.”

Kemudian berkatalah bani Yusuf: "Pegunungan itu tidak cukup bagi kami, dan semua orang Kanaan yang diam di dataran itu mempunyai kereta besi, baik yang diam di Bet-Sean dengan segala anak kotanya maupun yang diam di lembah Yizreel."

17 Joshua spoke to the house of Joseph, that is, to Ephraim and to Manasseh, saying, “You are a numerous people, and have great power. You shall not have one lot only;

Lalu berkatalah Yosua kepada keturunan Yusuf, kepada suku Efraim dan suku Manasye: "Engkau ini bangsa yang banyak jumlahnya dan mempunyai kekuatan yang besar; tidak hanya satu bagian undian ditentukan bagimu,

18 but the hill country shall be yours. Although it is a forest, you shall cut it down, and it’s farthest extent shall be yours; for you shall drive out the Canaanites, though they have chariots of iron, and though they are strong.”

tetapi pegunungan itu akan ditentukan bagimu juga, dan karena tanah itu hutan, haruslah kamu membukanya; kamu akan memilikinya sampai kepada ujung-ujungnya, sebab kamu akan menghalau orang Kanaan itu, sekalipun mereka mempunyai kereta besi dan sekalipun mereka kuat."
