Jos 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.
Jos 16:2 And goeth out from Bethel to Luz, and passeth along unto the
borders of Archi to Ataroth,
Jos 16:3 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.
Jos 16:4 So the children of Joseph, Manasseh and Ephraim, took their
inheritance.
Jos 16:5 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;
Jos 16:6 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;
Jos 16:7 And it went down from Janohah to Ataroth, and to Naarath, and
came to Jericho, and went out at Jordan.
Jos 16:8 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.
Jos 16:9 And the separate cities for the children of Ephraim were among
the inheritance of the children of Manasseh, all the cities with their
villages.
Jos 16:10 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. |
