1 And the borders of the children of Joseph were from Jordan by Jericho eastward; and they will go up from Jericho to the hill country, to the wilderness, to Bethel Luz. 2 And they will go out to Bethel, and will proceed to the borders of Ataroth. 3 And they will go across to the sea to the borders of Japhletites, as far as the borders of Beth-horon the lower, and the going forth of them shall be to the sea. 4 And the sons of Joseph, Ephraim and Manasseh, took their inheritance. 5 And the borders of the children of Ephraim were according to their families, and the borders of their inheritance were eastward to Ataroth, and Eroc as far as Beth-horon the upper, and Gazara. 6 And the borders will proceed to the sea to Icasmon north of Therma; they will go round eastward to Taanath, and Shiloh, and will pass on eastward to Janoah, 7 and to Macho, and Ataroth, and [these are] their villages; and they will come to Jericho, and will issue at Jordan. 8 And the borders will proceed from Tappuah to the sea to Kanah; and their termination will be at the sea; this [is] the inheritance of the tribe of Ephraim according to their families. 9 And the cities separated to the sons of Ephraim [were] in the midst of the inheritance of the sons of Manasseh, all the cities and their villages. 10 And Ephraim did not destroy the Canaanite who dwelt in Gezer; and the Canaanite dwelt in Ephraim until this day, until Pharaoh the king of Egypt went up and took it, and burned it with fire; and the Canaanites, and Perizzites, and the dwellers in Gaza they destroyed, and Pharaoh gave them for a dowry to his daughter.
