| 1And 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, | 1The allotment for the descendants of Joseph extended from the Jordan at Jericho to the waters of Jericho on the east, through the wilderness that goes up from Jericho into the hill country of Bethel. |
| 2And goeth out from Bethel to Luz, and passeth along unto the borders of Archi to Ataroth, | 2It went on from Bethel (that is, Luz) and proceeded to the border of the Archites in Ataroth. |
| 3And 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. | 3Then it descended westward to the border of the Japhletites as far as the border of Lower Beth-horon and on to Gezer, and it ended at the Sea. |
| 4So the children of Joseph, Manasseh and Ephraim, took their inheritance. | 4So Ephraim and Manasseh, the sons of Joseph, received their inheritance. |
| 5And 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; | 5This was the territory of the descendants of Ephraim by their clans: The border of their inheritance went from Ataroth-addar in the east to Upper Beth-horon |
| 6And 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; | 6and out toward the Sea. From Michmethath on the north it turned eastward toward Taanath-shiloh and passed by it to Janoah on the east. |
| 7And it went down from Janohah to Ataroth, and to Naarath, and came to Jericho, and went out at Jordan. | 7From Janoah it went down to Ataroth and Naarah, and then reached Jericho and came out at the Jordan. |
| 8The 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. | 8From Tappuah the border went westward to the Brook of Kanah and ended at the Sea. This was the inheritance of the clans of the tribe of Ephraim, |
| 9And the separate cities for the children of Ephraim were among the inheritance of the children of Manasseh, all the cities with their villages. | 9along with all the cities and villages set apart for the descendants of Ephraim within the inheritance of Manasseh. |
| 10And they drave not out the Canaanites that dwelt in Gezer: but the Canaanites dwell among the Ephraimites unto this day, and serve under tribute. | 10But they did not drive out the Canaanites who lived in Gezer. So the Canaanites dwell among the Ephraimites to this day, but they are forced laborers. |
