Joshua 16
1¶ And the lot of the sons of Joseph fell from the Jordan of Jericho unto the water of Jericho towards the east to the wilderness that goes up from Jericho to Mount Bethel,
2and from Bethel going to Luz and passing the border of Archi in Ataroth,
3and turns to descend to the westward sea to the border of Japhleti until the border of Bethhoron the lower, and to Gezer, and comes out at the sea.
4So the sons of Joseph, Manasseh and Ephraim, received their inheritance.
5¶ And this was the border of the sons of Ephraim according to their families; this was the border of their inheritance on the east side from Atarothaddar unto Bethhoron the upper;
6and this border comes out to the sea and to Michmethah on the north side; and this border goes around eastward unto Taanathshiloh and from here passes on the east to Janohah;
7and from Janohah it goes down to Ataroth and to Naarath, and touches in Jericho and comes out at the Jordan.
8And from Tappuah this border turns towards the westward sea at the river Kanah and comes out at the sea. This is the inheritance of the tribe of the sons of Ephraim by their families.
9 There were also cities separated for the sons of Ephraim among the inheritance of the sons of Manasseh, all the cities with their villages.
10And they did not drive out the Canaanite that dwelt in Gezer, but the Canaanite remained in the midst of Ephraim unto this day and served under tribute.
