1 And the lot of the children of Joseph (Yosef) fell from Jordan (Yarden) by Yericho, unto the water of Yericho on the east, to the wilderness that goeth up from Yericho throughout Mount Bethel (Beit-El),

2 And goeth out from Bethel (Beit-El) to Luz, and passeth along unto the borders of Archi to Ataroth,

3 And goeth down westward to the coast of Yafleti, unto the coast of Beit-Choron the nether, and to Gezer; and the goings out thereof are at the sea.

4 So the children of Joseph (Yosef), Menashsheh and Efrayim, took their inheritance.

5 And the border of the children of Efrayim according to their families was thus; even the border of their inheritance on the east side was Atarothaddar, unto Beit-Choron the upper;

6 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 Yanohah;

7 And it went down from Yanohah to Ataroth, and to Naarath, and came to Yericho, and went out at Jordan (Yarden).

8 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 Efrayim by their families.

9 And the separate cities for the children of Efrayim were among the inheritance of the children of Menashsheh, all the cities with their villages.

10 And they drave not out the Canaanites that dwelt in Gezer; but the Canaanites dwell among the Efrayimites unto this day, and serve under tribute.
