Iosue 16

1 Cecidit quoque sors filiorum Ioseph ab Iordane contra Iericho et aquas eius ab Oriente: solitudo quæ ascendit de Iericho ad montem Bethel:

And the lot of the children of Joseph fell from Jordan by Jericho, to the water of Jericho on the east, to the wilderness that goes up from Jericho throughout mount Bethel,

2 et egreditur de Bethel Luza: transitque terminum Archi, Ataroth.

And goes out from Bethel to Luz, and passes along to the borders of Archi to Ataroth,

3 Et descendit ad Occidentem iuxta terminum Iephleti, usque ad terminos Beth horon inferioris, et Gazer: finiunturque regiones eius mari magno:

And goes down westward to the coast of Japhleti, to the coast of Bethhoron the nether, and to Gezer; and the goings out thereof are at the sea.

4 possederuntque filii Ioseph, Manasses et Ephraim.

So the children of Joseph, Manasseh and Ephraim, took their inheritance.

5 Et factus est terminus filiorum Ephraim per cognationes suas: et possessio eorum contra Orientem Ataroth addar usque Beth horon superiorem.

And the border of the children of Ephraim according to their families was thus: even the border of their inheritance on the east side was Atarothaddar, to Bethhoron the upper;

6 Egrediunturque confinia in mare: Machmethath vero Aquilonem respicit, et circuit terminos contra Orientem in Thanathselo: et pertransit ab Oriente Ianoe.

And the border went out toward the sea to Michmethah on the north side; and the border went about eastward to Taanathshiloh, and passed by it on the east to Janohah;

7 Descenditque de Ianoe in Ataroth et Naaratha: et pervenit in Iericho, egrediturque ad Iordanem.

And it went down from Janohah to Ataroth, and to Naarath, and came to Jericho, and went out at Jordan.

8 De Taphua pertransit contra mare in Vallem Arundineti, suntque egressus eius in mare salsissimum. Hæc est possessio tribus filiorum Ephraim per familias suas.

The border went out from Tappuah westward to the river Kanah; and the goings out thereof were at the sea. This is the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Ephraim by their families.

9 Urbesque separatæ sunt filiis Ephraim in medio possessionis filiorum Manasse, et villæ earum.

And the separate cities for the children of Ephraim were among the inheritance of the children of Manasseh, all the cities with their villages.

10 Et non interfecerunt filii Ephraim Chananæum, qui habitabat in Gazer: habitavitque Chananæus in medio Ephraim usque in diem hanc tributarius.

And they drove not out the Canaanites that dwelled in Gezer: but the Canaanites dwell among the Ephraimites to this day, and serve under tribute.
