Joshua 16
- 1
- And the lot of the children of Joseph fell from Jordan
by Jericho, unto the water of Jericho on the east, to the wilderness that
goeth up from Jericho throughout mount Bethel,
- 2
- And goeth out from Bethel to Luz, and passeth along unto
the borders of Archi to Ataroth,
- 3
- And goeth down westward to the coast of Japhleti, unto
the coast of Bethhoron the nether, and to Gezer; and the goings out thereof
are at the sea.
- 4
- So the children of Joseph, Manasseh and Ephraim, took
their inheritance.
- 5
- 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, unto Bethhoron the upper;
- 6
- And the border went out toward the sea to Michmethah on
the north side; and the border went about eastward unto Taanathshiloh, and
passed by it on the east to Janohah;
- 7
- And it went down from Janohah to Ataroth, and to Naarath,
and came to Jericho, and went out at Jordan.
- 8
- The border went out from Tappuah westward unto 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
- 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
- And they drave not out the Canaanites that dwelt in
Gezer: but the Canaanites dwell among the Ephraimites unto this day, and serve
under tribute.
