Joshua 17:1-10
1Now this was the lotH1486 for the tribeH4294 of 1ManassehH4519, for he was the firstbornH1060 of JosephH3130. To MachirH4353 the firstbornH1060 of ManassehH4519, the fatherH1 of GileadH1568, 2were allottedH1961 GileadH1568 and BashanH1316, becauseH3588 he was a manH376 of warH4421. 2So the lot was made for the restH3498 of the sonsH1121 of ManassehH4519 according to their familiesH4940: for the sonsH1121 of AbiezerH44, the sonsH1121 of HelekH2507, the sonsH1121 of AsrielH844, the sonsH1121 of ShechemH7928, the sonsH1121 of HepherH2660, and the sonsH1121 of ShemidaH8061; theseH428 were the maleH2145 3descendantsH1121 of ManassehH4519 the sonH1121 of JosephH3130 according to their familiesH4940.
3However, 4ZelophehadH6765, the sonH1121 of HepherH2660, the sonH1121 of GileadH1568, the sonH1121 of MachirH4353, the sonH1121 of ManassehH4519, hadH1961 noH3808 sonsH1121, onlyH3588H518 daughtersH1323; and theseH428 are the namesH8034 of his daughtersH1323: MahlahH4244, NoahH5270, HoglahH2295, MilcahH4435, and TirzahH8656. 4They approachedH7126H6440 EleazarH499 the priestH3548, JoshuaH3091 the sonH1121 of NunH5126, and the leadersH5387, sayingH559, “The LordH3068 commandedH6680 MosesH4872 to giveH5414 us an inheritanceH5159 amongH8432 our brothersH251.” So 5inH413 accordanceH413 withH413 the 6commandH6310 of the LordH3068 he gaveH5414 them an inheritanceH5159 amongH8432 their father’sH1 brothersH251. 5So tenH6235 portionsH2256 fellH5307 to ManassehH4519, besidesH905H4480 the landH776 of GileadH1568 and BashanH1316, whichH834 is beyondH4480H5676 the JordanH3383, 6becauseH3588 the daughtersH1323 of ManassehH4519 receivedH5157 an inheritanceH5159 amongH8432 his sonsH1121. And the 7landH776 of GileadH1568 belongedH1961 to the restH3498 of the sonsH1121 of ManassehH4519.
7The borderH1366 of ManassehH4519 8ranH1961 from AsherH836 to MichmethathH4366 whichH834 was eastH5921H6440 of ShechemH7927; then the borderH1366 wentH1980 9southwardH3225 to the inhabitantsH3427 of En-tappuahH5887. 8The landH776 of TappuahH8599 belongedH1961 to ManassehH4519, but 10TappuahH8599 on the borderH1366 of ManassehH4519 belonged to the sonsH1121 of EphraimH669. 9And the 11borderH1366 wentH3381 downH3381 to the 12brookH5158 of KanahH7071, southwardH5045 of the 13brookH5158 (theseH428 citiesH5892 belonged to EphraimH669 amongH8432 the citiesH5892 of ManassehH4519), and the borderH1366 of ManassehH4519 was on the northH6828 sideH6828 of the 14brookH5158, and 15it endedH1961H8444 at the seaH3220. 10The southH5045 sideH5045 belonged to EphraimH669 and the northH6828 sideH6828 to ManassehH4519, and the seaH3220 was 16their borderH1366; and they reachedH6293 to AsherH836 on the northH6828 and to IssacharH3485 on the eastH4217.
