016:005 The border of the children of Ephraim according to their
families was [thus]: the border of their inheritance eastward
was Ataroth Addar, to Beth Horon the upper;
016:006 and the border went out westward at Michmethath on the north;
and the border turned about eastward to Taanath Shiloh,
and passed along it on the east of Janoah;
016:007 and it went down from Janoah to Ataroth, and to Naarah,
and reached to Jericho, and went out at the Jordan.
016:008 From Tappuah the border went along westward to the brook
of Kanah; and the goings out of it were at the sea.
This is the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Ephraim
according to their families;
016:009 together with the cities which were set apart for the children
of Ephraim in the midst of the inheritance of the children
of Manasseh, all the cities with their villages.
016:010 They didn't drive out the Canaanites who lived in Gezer:
but the Canaanites dwell in the midst of Ephraim to this day,
and are become servants to do forced labor.
017:001 [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.
017:002 So [the lot] was for the rest of the children of Manasseh
according to 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 according to their families.
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.
017:004 They came near before Eleazar the priest, and before Joshua
the son of Nun, and before 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.
017:005 There fell ten parts to Manasseh, besides the land of Gilead
and Bashan, which is beyond the Jordan;
017:006 because the daughters of Manasseh had an inheritance among his sons.
The land of Gilead belonged to the rest of the sons of Manasseh.
017:007 The border of Manasseh was from Asher to Michmethath, which is
before Shechem; and the border went along to the right hand,
to the inhabitants of En Tappuah.
017:008 The land of Tappuah belonged to Manasseh; but Tappuah on
the border of Manasseh belonged to the children of Ephraim.
