06:016:005 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;
06:016:006 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;
06:016:007 And it went down from Janohah to Ataroth, and to Naarath, and
came to Jericho, and went out at Jordan.
06:016:008 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.
06:016:009 And the separate cities for the children of Ephraim were among
the inheritance of the children of Manasseh, all the cities
with their villages.
06:016:010 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.
06:017:001 There was also a lot for the tribe of Manasseh; for he was the
firstborn of Joseph; to wit, for Machir the firstborn of
Manasseh, the father of Gilead: because he was a man of war,
therefore he had Gilead and Bashan.
06:017:002 There was also a lot for the rest of the children of Manasseh
by their families; for the children of Abiezer, and for the
children of Helek, and for the children of Asriel, and for the
children of Shechem, and for the children of Hepher, and for
the children of Shemida: these were the male children of
Manasseh the son of Joseph by their families.
06:017:003 But Zelophehad, the son of Hepher, the son of Gilead, the son
of Machir, the son of Manasseh, had no sons, but daughters:
and these are the names of his daughters, Mahlah, and Noah,
Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah.
06:017:004 And they came near before Eleazar the priest, and before
Joshua the son of Nun, and before the princes, saying, The
LORD commanded Moses to give us an inheritance among our
brethren. Therefore according to the commandment of the LORD
he gave them an inheritance among the brethren of their
father.
06:017:005 And there fell ten portions to Manasseh, beside the land of
Gilead and Bashan, which were on the other side Jordan;
06:017:006 Because the daughters of Manasseh had an inheritance among his
sons: and the rest of Manasseh's sons had the land of Gilead.
06:017:007 And the coast of Manasseh was from Asher to Michmethah, that
lieth before Shechem; and the border went along on the right
hand unto the inhabitants of Entappuah.
