Joshua:16
Seeker Overlay ON
*
The lot of the sons of Joseph went from the Jordan ,
by Jericho ,
to the waters of Jericho on the east ,
to the wilderness that goes up from Jericho through the mountains to Bethel ,
*
and went out from Bethel to Luz ,
passed along to the border of the Archites at Ataroth ,
*
and went down westward to the border of the Japhletites ,
as far as the border of Lower Beth Horon to Gezer ;
and it ended at the sea .
*
Thus the sons of Joseph ,
Manasseh and Ephraim ,
took possession .
*
The border of the sons of Ephraim ,
according to their families :
The border of their inheritance on the east side was Ataroth Addar as far as Upper Beth Horon .
*
And the border went out toward the sea on the north side of Michmethath ;
then the border went around eastward to Taanath Shiloh ,
and passed by it on the east to Janohah .
*
And it went down from Janohah to Ataroth and Naarah ,
reached to Jericho ,
and came out at the Jordan .
*
The border went out from Tappuah westward to the Brook Kanah ,
and it ended at the sea .
This was the inheritance of the tribe of the sons of Ephraim according to their families .
*
And the separate cities of the sons of Ephraim were among the inheritance of the sons of Manasseh ,
all the cities with their villages .
*
And they did not drive out the Canaanites who dwelt in Gezer ;
but the Canaanites dwell in the midst of Ephraim to this day and are serving under tribute .
