1 Tierra asignada por sorteo a la media tribu de Manasés, hijo mayor de José: El clan de Maquir, hijo mayor de Manasés y padre de Galaad, que era hombre de guerra, recibió la tierra de Galaad y de Basán en la ribera oriental del río Jordán.
1 This was the lot for the tribe of Manasseh, for he was the firstborn of Joseph. As for Machir the firstborn of Manasseh, the father of Gilead, because he was a man of war, therefore he had Gilead and Bashan.
2 Los clanes de Abiezer, Jélec, Asriel, Siquén, Héfer y Semidá, hijos de Manasés, recibieron tierras en el lado occidental del Jordán.
2 So this was for the rest of the children of Manasseh according to their families: for the children of Abiezer, for the children of Helek, for the children of Asriel, for the children of Shechem, for the children of Hepher, and for the children of Shemida. These were the male children of Manasseh the son of Joseph according to their families.
3 Sin embargo, Zelofejad, hijo de Héfer que era descendiente de Galaad, Maquir y Manasés, no tenía hijos sino sólo cinco hijas cuyos nombres eran: Majlá, Noa, Joglá, Milca y Tirsá.
3 But Zelophehad, the son of Hepher, the son of Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh, had no sons, but daughters. These are the names of his daughters: Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah.
4 Ellas se presentaron ante Eleazar el sacerdote, Josué y los jefes israelitas y les recordaron: «El Señor le dijo a Moisés que nosotras debíamos recibir una propiedad similar a la de los hombres de nuestra tribu».
4 They came to Eleazar the priest, and to Joshua the son of Nun, and to the princes, saying, “Yahweh commanded Moses to give us an inheritance among our brothers.” Therefore according to the commandment of Yahweh he gave them an inheritance among the brothers of their father.
5 Entonces, estas cinco mujeres recibieron una heredad junto con la de sus cinco tíos abuelos, de modo que la herencia total de esta tribu fue de diez porciones de tierra (además de la tierra de Galaad y Basán al otro lado del Jordán).
5 Ten parts fell to Manasseh, in addition to the land of Gilead and Bashan, which is beyond the Jordan;
6 Not in this translation
6 because the daughters of Manasseh had an inheritance among his sons. The land of Gilead belonged to the rest of the sons of Manasseh.
7 El límite norte de la tribu de Manasés se extendía hacia el sur, desde la frontera de Aser hasta Micmetat, que está al este de Siquén. En el sur el límite iba desde Micmetat hasta las fuentes de Tapúaj.
7 The border of Manasseh was from Asher to Michmethath, which is before Shechem. The border went along to the right hand, to the inhabitants of En Tappuah.
8 La tierra de Tapúaj pertenecía a Manasés, pero la ciudad de Tapúaj, en la frontera del territorio de Manasés, pertenecía a la tribu de Efraín.
8 The land of Tappuah belonged to Manasseh; but Tappuah on the border of Manasseh belonged to the children of Ephraim.
9 La frontera de Manasés seguía por la ribera norte del arroyo de Caná hasta el mar Mediterráneo. Varias ciudades del sur del arroyo pertenecían a la tribu de Efraín, aunque estaban localizadas en el territorio de Manasés.
9 The border went down to the brook of Kanah, southward of the brook. These cities belonged to Ephraim among the cities of Manasseh. The border of Manasseh was on the north side of the brook, and ended at the sea.
10 La tierra del sur del arroyo hasta el mar Mediterráneo fue asignada a Efraín, y la tierra del norte del arroyo y al oriente del mar fue concedida a Manasés. La frontera norte de Manasés era el territorio de Aser y su límite oriental era el territorio de Isacar.
10 Southward it was Ephraim’s, and northward it was Manasseh’s, and the sea was his border. They reached to Asher on the north, and to Issachar on the east.
11 La media tribu de Manasés también recibió las siguientes ciudades que estaban situadas en áreas asignadas a Isacar y a Aser: Betseán, Ibleam, Dor, Endor, Tanac y Meguido, y las tres colinas, cada una con sus respectivos pueblos.
11 Manasseh had three heights in Issachar, in Asher Beth Shean and its towns, and Ibleam and its towns, and the inhabitants of Dor and its towns, and the inhabitants of Endor and its towns, and the inhabitants of Taanach and its towns, and the inhabitants of Megiddo and its towns.
12 Pero por cuanto los descendientes de Manasés no pudieron expulsar a los cananeos que vivían en aquellas ciudades, los cananeos se quedaron en ellas.
12 Yet the children of Manasseh couldn’t drive out the inhabitants of those cities; but the Canaanites would dwell in that land.
13 Sin embargo, más adelante, cuando los israelitas se fortalecieron, obligaron a los cananeos a trabajar como esclavos.
13 When the children of Israel had grown strong, they put the Canaanites to forced labor, and didn’t utterly drive them out.
14 Un día los hijos de José fueron ante Josué y le preguntaron: ―¿Por qué nos has dado sólo una porción de tierra, cuando el Señor nos ha dado una población tan numerosa?
14 The children of Joseph spoke to Joshua, saying, “Why have you given me just one lot and one part for an inheritance, since we are a numerous people, because Yahweh has blessed us so far?”
15 ―Si el territorio montañoso de Efraín no es suficiente para ustedes —contestó Josué—, y pueden hacerlo, suban y desmonten los bosques donde habitan los ferezeos y los refaítas.
15 Joshua said to them, “If you are a numerous people, go up to the forest, and clear land for yourself there in the land of the Perizzites and of the Rephaim, since the hill country of Ephraim is too narrow for you.”
16 ―Sí —dijeron las tribus de José—, porque los cananeos de las tierras bajas que rodean a Betseán y del valle de Jezrel tienen carros de hierro y son demasiado fuertes para nosotros.
16 The children of Joseph said, “The hill country is not enough for us. All the Canaanites who dwell in the land of the valley have chariots of iron, both those who are in Beth Shean and its towns, and those who are in the valley of Jezreel.”
17 ―Entonces tendrán los bosques de la montaña —respondió Josué— y puesto que ustedes son una tribu fuerte y numerosa no tendrán problemas para despejar el lugar y vivir en él. Estoy seguro de que pueden expulsar a los cananeos de los valles también, aun cuando ellos sean fuertes y tengan carros de hierro.
17 Joshua spoke to the house of Joseph, that is, to Ephraim and to Manasseh, saying, “You are a numerous people, and have great power. You shall not have one lot only;
18 Not in this translation
18 but the hill country shall be yours. Although it is a forest, you shall cut it down, and it’s farthest extent shall be yours; for you shall drive out the Canaanites, though they have chariots of iron, and though they are strong.”
