Joshua 17:14-18

14Then the sonsH1121 of JosephH3130 saidH1696 toH854 JoshuaH3091H559, “WhyH4069 have you givenH5414 us only oneH259 portionH1486 as an inheritanceH5159? WeH589 have manyH7227 peopleH5971, becauseH5704 the LORDH3068 has blessed us abundantlyH5704H3541H1288.”

15JoshuaH3091 answeredH559 themH413, “IfH518 youH859 have so manyH7227 peopleH5971 thatH3588 the hill countryH2022 of EphraimH669 is too smallH213 for you, goH5927 to the forestH3293 and clearH1254 for yourself an areaH8033 in the landH776 of the PerizzitesH6522 and the RephaimH7497.”

16“The hill countryH2022 is notH3808 enoughH4672 for us,” they repliedH559, “and allH3605 the CanaanitesH3669 who liveH3427 in the valleyH6010 have ironH1270 chariotsH7393, both in Beth-sheanH1052 with its townsH1323 and in the ValleyH6010 of JezreelH3157.”

17So JoshuaH3091 saidH559 toH413 the houseH1004 of JosephH3130—to EphraimH669 and ManassehH4519H559—“You have manyH7227H859 peopleH5971 and greatH1419 strengthH3581. You shall notH3808 haveH1961 just oneH259 allotmentH1486, 18becauseH3588 the hill countryH2022 will beH1961 yours as well. ItH1931 is a forestH3293; clear itH1254, and its farthest limitsH8444 will beH1961 yours. AlthoughH3588 the Canaanites have ironH1270 chariotsH7393 and althoughH3588 they are strongH2389, you canH1931 drive them outH3423.”
