[1]There was also a lotH1486 for the tribeH4294 of ManassehH4519; for he was the firstbornH1060 of JosephH3130; to wit, for MachirH4353 the firstbornH1060 of ManassehH4519, the fatherH1 of GileadH1568: because he was a manH376 of warH4421, therefore he had GileadH1568 and BashanH1316.
[2]There was also a lot for the restH3498[H8737] of the childrenH1121 of ManassehH4519 by their familiesH4940; for the childrenH1121 of AbiezerH44, and for the childrenH1121 of HelekH2507, and for the childrenH1121 of AsrielH844, and for the childrenH1121 of ShechemH7928, and for the childrenH1121 of HepherH2660, and for the childrenH1121 of ShemidaH8061: these were the maleH2145 childrenH1121 of ManassehH4519 the sonH1121 of JosephH3130 by their familiesH4940.
[3]But ZelophehadH6765, the sonH1121 of HepherH2660, the sonH1121 of GileadH1568, the sonH1121 of MachirH4353, the sonH1121 of ManassehH4519, had no sonsH1121, but daughtersH1323: and these are the namesH8034 of his daughtersH1323, MahlahH4244, and NoahH5270, HoglahH2295, MilcahH4435, and TirzahH8656.
[4]And they came nearH7126[H8799] beforeH6440 EleazarH499 the priestH3548, and beforeH6440 JoshuaH3091 the sonH1121 of NunH5126, and beforeH6440 the princesH5387, sayingH559[H8800], The LORDH3068 commandedH6680[H8765] MosesH4872 to giveH5414[H8800] us an inheritanceH5159 amongH8432 our brethrenH251. Therefore according to the commandmentH6310 of the LORDH3068 he gaveH5414[H8799] them an inheritanceH5159 amongH8432 the brethrenH251 of their fatherH1.
[5]And there fellH5307[H8799] tenH6235 portionsH2256 to ManassehH4519, beside the landH776 of GileadH1568 and BashanH1316, which were on the other sideH5676 JordanH3383;
[6]Because the daughtersH1323 of ManassehH4519 hadH5157[H8804] an inheritanceH5159 amongH8432 his sonsH1121: and the restH3498[H8737] of Manasseh'sH4519 sonsH1121 had the landH776 of GileadH1568.
[7]And the coastH1366 of ManassehH4519 was from AsherH836 to MichmethahH4366, that lieth beforeH6440 ShechemH7927; and the borderH1366 went alongH1980[H8804] on the right handH3225 unto the inhabitantsH3427[H8802] of EntappuahH5887.
[8]Now ManassehH4519 had the landH776 of TappuahH8599: but TappuahH8599 on the borderH1366 of ManassehH4519 belonged to the childrenH1121 of EphraimH669;
[9]And the coastH1366 descendedH3381[H8804] unto the riverH5158 KanahH7071, southwardH5045 of the riverH5158: these citiesH5892 of EphraimH669 are amongH8432 the citiesH5892 of ManassehH4519: the coastH1366 of ManassehH4519 also was on the north sideH6828 of the riverH5158, and the outgoingsH8444 of it were at the seaH3220:
[10]SouthwardH5045 it was Ephraim'sH669, and northwardH6828 it was Manasseh'sH4519, and the seaH3220 is his borderH1366; and they met togetherH6293[H8799] in AsherH836 on the northH6828, and in IssacharH3485 on the eastH4217.
[11]And ManassehH4519 had in IssacharH3485 and in AsherH836 BethsheanH1052 and her townsH1323, and IbleamH2991 and her townsH1323, and the inhabitantsH3427[H8802] of DorH1756 and her townsH1323, and the inhabitantsH3427[H8802] of EndorH5874 and her townsH1323, and the inhabitantsH3427[H8802] of TaanachH8590 and her townsH1323, and the inhabitantsH3427[H8802] of MegiddoH4023 and her townsH1323, even threeH7969 countriesH5316.
[12]Yet the childrenH1121 of ManassehH4519 couldH3201[H8804] not drive outH3423[H8687] the inhabitants of those citiesH5892; but the CanaanitesH3669 wouldH2974[H8686] dwellH3427[H8800] in that landH776.
[13]Yet it came to pass, when the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 were waxen strongH2388[H8804], that they putH5414[H8799] the CanaanitesH3669 to tributeH4522; but did not utterlyH3423[H8687] drive them outH3423.[H8689]
[14]And the childrenH1121 of JosephH3130 spakeH1696[H8762] unto JoshuaH3091, sayingH559[H8800], Why hast thou givenH5414[H8804] me but oneH259 lotH1486 and oneH259 portionH2256 to inheritH5159, seeing I am a greatH7227 peopleH5971, forasmuch asH5704 the LORDH3068 hath blessedH1288[H8765] me hithertoH3541?
[15]And JoshuaH3091 answeredH559[H8799] them, If thou be a greatH7227 peopleH5971, then get thee upH5927[H8798] to the woodH3293 country, and cut downH1254[H8765] for thyself there in the landH776 of the PerizzitesH6522 and of the giantsH7497, if mountH2022 EphraimH669 be too narrowH213 for theeH8804.
[16]And the childrenH1121 of JosephH3130 saidH559[H8799], The hillH2022 is not enoughH4672[H8735] for us: and all the CanaanitesH3669 that dwellH3427[H8802] in the landH776 of the valleyH6010 have chariotsH7393 of ironH1270, both they who are of BethsheanH1052 and her townsH1323, and they who are of the valleyH6010 of JezreelH3157.
[17]And JoshuaH3091 spakeH559[H8799] unto the houseH1004 of JosephH3130, even to EphraimH669 and to ManassehH4519, sayingH559[H8800], Thou art a greatH7227 peopleH5971, and hast greatH1419 powerH3581: thou shalt not have oneH259 lot onlyH1486:
[18]But the mountainH2022 shall be thine; for it is a woodH3293, and thou shalt cut it downH1254[H8765]: and the outgoingsH8444 of it shall be thine: for thou shalt drive outH3423[H8686] the CanaanitesH3669, though they have ironH1270 chariotsH7393, and though they be strongH2389.
