Joshua - 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 - ,

2 - And goeth out from Bethel - to Luz - , and passeth along unto the borders of Archi to Ataroth,

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.

4 - So the children of Joseph - , Manasseh - and Ephraim - , took their inheritance.

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;

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;

7 - And it went down from Janohah to Ataroth, and to Naarath, and came to Jericho - , and went out at Jordan - .

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.

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.

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.
