1. And the borders of the tribe of the children of Manasse, (for he was the first-born Gr. to of Joseph,) assigned to Machir the first-born of Manasse the father of Galaad, for he was a warrior, were in the land of Galaad and of Basan.

There was H1961 also a lot H1486 for the tribe H4294 of Manasseh H4519 ; for H3588 he H1931 was the firstborn H1060 of Joseph H3130 ; to wit , for Machir H4353 the firstborn H1060 of Manasseh H4519 , the father H1 of Gilead H1568 : because H3588 he H1931 was H1961 a man H376 of war H4421 , therefore he had H1961 Gilead H1568 and Bashan H1316 .
|
|
2. And there was land assigned to the other sons of Manasse according to their families; to the sons of Jezi, and to the sons of Kelez, and to the sons of Jeziel, and to the sons of Sychem, and to the sons of Symarim, and to the sons of Opher: these are the males according to their families.

4. And they stood before Eleazar the priest, and before Joshua, and before the rulers, saying, God gave a charge by the hand of Moses, to give us an inheritance in the midst of our brethren: so there was given to them by the command of the Lord an inheritance among the brethren of their father.
|
4. And they came near H7126 before H6440 Eleazar H499 the priest H3548 , and before H6440 Joshua H3091 the son H1121 of Nun H5126 , and before H6440 the princes H5387 , saying H559 , The LORD H3068 commanded H6680 H853 Moses H4872 to give H5414 us an inheritance H5159 among H8432 our brethren H251 . Therefore according H413 to the commandment H6310 of the LORD H3068 he gave H5414 them an inheritance H5159 among H8432 the brethren H251 of their father H1 .
|
|
5. And their lot fell to them from Anassa, and to the plain of Labec of the land of Galaad, which is beyond Jordan.
|
5. And there fell H5307 ten H6235 portions H2256 to Manasseh H4519 , beside H905 the land H4480 H776 of Gilead H1568 and Bashan H1316 , which H834 were on the other side H5676 Jordan H3383 ;
|
|
6. For the daughters of the sons of Manasse inherited a portion in the midst of their brethren, and the land of Galaad was assigned to the remainder of the sons of Manasse.
|
6. Because H3588 the daughters H1323 of Manasseh H4519 had an inheritance H5157 H5159 among H8432 his sons H1121 : and the rest H3498 of Manasseh H4519 's sons H1121 had H1961 the land H776 of Gilead H1568 .
|
|
7. And the borders of the sons of Manasse were Delanath, which is before the sons of Anath, and it proceeds to the borders even to Jamin and Jassib to the fountain of Thaphthoth.
|
7. And the coast H1366 of Manasseh H4519 was H1961 from Asher H4480 H836 to Michmethah H4366 , that H834 lieth before H5921 H6440 Shechem H7927 ; and the border H1366 went along H1980 on H413 the right hand H3225 unto H413 the inhabitants H3427 of En H5887 -tappuah.
|
|
8. It shall belong to Manasse, and Thapheth on the borders of Manasse shall belong to the sons of Ephraim.
|
8. Now Manasseh H4519 had H1961 the land H776 of Tappuah H8599 : but Tappuah H8599 on H413 the border H1366 of Manasseh H4519 belonged to the children H1121 of Ephraim H669 ;
|
|
9. And the borders shall go down to the valley of Carana southward by the valley of Jariel, (there is a turpentine tree belonging to Ephraim between that and the city of Manasse:) and the borders of Manasse are northward to the brook; and the sea shall be its termination.
|
9. And the coast H1366 descended H3381 unto the river H5158 Kanah H7071 , southward H5045 of the river H5158 : these H428 cities H5892 of Ephraim H669 are among H8432 the cities H5892 of Manasseh H4519 : the coast H1366 of Manasseh H4519 also was on the north side H4480 H6828 of the river H5158 , and the outgoings H8444 of it were H1961 at the sea H3220 :
|
|
10. Southward the land belongs to Ephraim, and northward to Manasse; and the sea shall be their coast; and northward they shall border upon Alex. Aser Aseb, and eastward upon Issachar.
|
10. Southward H5045 it was Ephraim H669 's , and northward H6828 it was Manasseh H4519 's , and the sea H3220 is H1961 his border H1366 ; and they met together H6293 in Asher H836 on the north H4480 H6828 , and in Issachar H3485 on the east H4480 H4217 .
|
|
11. And Manasses shall have in the portion of Issachar and Aser Baethsan and their villages, and the inhabitants of Dor, and its villages, and the inhabitants of Mageddo, and its villages, and the third part of Mapheta, and its villages.
|
11. And Manasseh H4519 had H1961 in Issachar H3485 and in Asher H836 Beth H1052 -shean and her towns H1323 , and Ibleam H2991 and her towns H1323 , and the inhabitants H3427 of Dor H1756 and her towns H1323 , and the inhabitants H3427 of Endor H5874 and her towns H1323 , and the inhabitants H3427 of Taanach H8590 and her towns H1323 , and the inhabitants H3427 of Megiddo H4023 and her towns H1323 , even three H7969 countries H5316 .
|
|
12. And the sons of Manasse were not able to destroy these cities; and the Chananite began to dwell in Gr. this that land.
|
12. Yet the children H1121 of Manasseh H4519 could H3201 not H3808 drive out H3423 the inhabitants of H853 those H428 cities H5892 ; but the Canaanites H3669 would H2974 dwell H3427 in that H2088 land H776 .
|
|
13. And it came to pass that when the children of Israel were strong, they made the Chananites subject, but they did not utterly destroy them.
|
13. Yet it came to pass H1961 , when H3588 the children H1121 of Israel H3478 were waxen strong H2388 , that they put H5414 H853 the Canaanites H3669 to tribute H4522 ; but did not H3808 utterly drive them out H3423 H3423 .
|
|
14. And the sons of Joseph answered Joshua, saying, Wherefore hast thou caused us to inherit one inheritance, and one line? whereas I am a great people, and God has blessed me.
|
14. And the children H1121 of Joseph H3130 spoke H1696 unto H854 H853 Joshua H3091 , saying H559 , Why H4069 hast thou given H5414 me but one H259 lot H1486 and one H259 portion H2256 to inherit H5159 , seeing I H589 am a great H7227 people H5971 , forasmuch H5704 as the LORD H3068 hath blessed H1288 me hitherto H834 H5704 H3541 ?
|
|
15. And Joshua said to them, If thou be a great people, go up to the forest, and clear the land for thyself, If mount Ephraim be too little for thee.
|
15. And Joshua H3091 answered H559 H413 them, If H518 thou H859 be a great H7227 people H5971 , then get thee up H5927 to the wood H3293 country , and cut down H1254 for thyself there H8033 in the land H776 of the Perizzites H6522 and of the giants H7497 , if H3588 mount H2022 Ephraim H669 be too narrow H213 for thee.
|
|
16. And they said, The mount of Ephraim does not please us, and the Chananite dwelling in it in Baethsan, and in its villages, and in the valley of Jezrael, has choice cavalry and iron.
|
16. And the children H1121 of Joseph H3130 said H559 , The hill H2022 is not H3808 enough H4672 for us : and all H3605 the Canaanites H3669 that dwell H3427 in the land H776 of the valley H6010 have chariots H7393 of iron H1270 , both they who H834 are of Beth H1052 -shean and her towns H1323 , and they who H834 are of the valley H6010 of Jezreel H3157 .
|
|
17. And Joshua said to the sons of Joseph, If thou art a great people, and hast great strength, thou shalt not have only one inheritance.
|
17. And Joshua H3091 spoke H559 unto H413 the house H1004 of Joseph H3130 , even to Ephraim H669 and to Manasseh H4519 , saying H559 , Thou H859 art a great H7227 people H5971 , and hast great H1419 power H3581 : thou shalt not H3808 have H1961 one H259 lot H1486 only :
|
|
18. For thou shalt have the wood, for there is a wood, and thou shalt clear it, and the land shall be thine; even when thou shalt have utterly destroyed the Chananite, for he has chosen cavalry; yet thou art stronger than he.
|
18. But H3588 the mountain H2022 shall be H1961 thine; for H3588 it H1931 is a wood H3293 , and thou shalt cut it down H1254 : and the outgoings H8444 of it shall be H1931 thine: for H3588 thou shalt drive out H3423 H853 the Canaanites H3669 , though H3588 they have iron H1270 chariots H7393 , and though H3588 they H1931 be strong H2389 .
