Joshua 17:14-18
14Then the 1sonsH1121 of JosephH3130 spokeH1696 to JoshuaH3091, sayingH559, “WhyH4069 have you givenH5414 me only oneH259 lotH1486 and oneH259 portionH2256 as an inheritanceH5159, though I am a numerousH7227 peopleH5971 whomH834 the LordH3068 has blessedH1288 upH5704 toH5704 thisH3541 pointH3541?”
15And JoshuaH3091 saidH559 to them, “IfH518 you are a numerousH7227 peopleH5971, goH5927 2upH5927 to the forestH3293 and clearH1254 a place for yourself thereH8033 in the landH776 of the PerizzitesH6522 and of the RephaimH7497, sinceH3588 the hillH2022 countryH2022 of EphraimH669 isH213 tooH213 narrowH213 for you.”
16The sonsH1121 of JosephH3130 then saidH559, “The hillH2022 countryH2022 isH4672 not enoughH4672 for us, but allH3605 the CanaanitesH3669 who liveH3427 in the valleyH6010 landH776 have 3ironH1270 chariotsH7393, both those whoH834 are in Beth-sheanH1052 and its townsH1323 and those whoH834 are in the ValleyH6010 of JezreelH3157.”
17But JoshuaH3091 spokeH559 to the houseH1004 of JosephH3130, to EphraimH669 and ManassehH4519, sayingH559, “You are a numerousH7227 peopleH5971 and have greatH1419 powerH3581; you shall not haveH1961 oneH259 lotH1486 only,
18but the hillH2022 countryH2022 shall be yours. For though it is a forestH3293, you shall clearH1254 it, and to its 4farthestH8444 bordersH8444 it shall be yours; for you shall 5driveH3423 outH3423 the CanaanitesH3669, evenH3588 thoughH3588 they have 6ironH1270 chariotsH7393 and thoughH3588 they are strongH2389.”
